No it’s dr who

Yes, working instead of going to college.

I would take anything Hunter S. Thompson wrote with a massive grain of salt. He’s fun to read but gonzo journalism isn’t a great source for facts.

No, those are the drunk drivers, the angry ones specifically.

Look at this photograph

Please go watch Twin Peaks. It’s one of the best TV shows ever!

Except the child slave labor part would go away.

That’s the neat part, the republicans are trying to repeal child labor laws.

I’m being cheeky. I really just mean it’s an old technology that anyone could use and doesn’t.

If you want a real answer. Sega died because of the conflict between its American branch that was pushing the 32x (putting the genesis on life support when 5th Gen consoles like the 3DO were already releasing) and the Japanese parent that botched the Saturns release. ($100 more than the ps1, and retailers weren’t told about the initial exclusivity with KB toys so other retailers didn’t order any.) The Saturn was also hard to develop for and the Dreamcast had no piracy protections when it finally did release.

Basically a series of bad internal communication and multiple failures to keep up with consumer and retailer expectations and demands. They still made some of the best hardware of all time. The Dreamcast is a near perfect console the only gripe anyone has now is that the controller isn’t particularly comfortable.

A side note. The Xbox brand is the spiritual successor to Sega. The developers of the OG Xbox took a lot of design inspiration from the Dreamcast and helped to implement a windows compatibility layer for the Dreamcast before the Xbox was in development. Xbox also targets the same demographic of sports gamers and middle/high school boys.

This is why Sega needs to come back. They had Hall effect sticks on the Saturn and Dreamcast.

This whole thread is about day dreaming about business law reform.

The whole world doesn’t stop to deal with each problem individually.

Corporations should be owned jointly in equal parts by the people who work there. Most live local and won’t want to do that.

Not all adults need a traditional doctor, but checkups mean catching things before they become a problem in either case.

No the point of science is to test theories. Data can confirm or de confirm a theory. So, part of science is data collection. In fact, the data colllection is the most important part, otherwise it’s just theory and philosophizing.

But the data will be the same regardless of who is conducting the experiment. Changing the population that you conduct the experiment on is changing variables. Interpretation of the data may change depending on whether the experimenter is athiest or Christian.

I already qualified that I meant objective in two different senses and conceded that pure logical objectivity is not attainable through the scientific method.

Objective in the second way means that people performing the same actions will get the same results regardless of cultural or personal biases.

Observer bias refers to the interpretation of the data, and the construction of a model using that data. Bias also exists in the formation of theories which determine which experiments will be done.

However, two people performing the double slit experiment, for example, will find the same results as long as they follow the same methodology. The idea of the double slit experiment and what the data mean are of course up to interpretation and that interpretation will have some amount of bias.

This is the same as saying basketball games have objective scores. The score is what it is regardless of who is reading the number on the scoreboard or who is playing the game. The rules of the game are arbitrary in the same way that an experimental hypothesis and methodology are arbitrary. What the score means is subjective to the fans in the same way that data interpretation is subjective to the observer.

This is true to the extent that science can only prove things through induction and induction is not as good as deduction for logical proofs. Which means that it is not “objective” in the logical senses as it relates to physical reality. But science is “objective” to the extent that experiments are repeatable by any any given person following the same methodology will be the same results.

However the meme image is about interpretation of glyphs used to represent numbers. And the left guy on the bottom is a dumb fuck for not using one of the possible agreed upon options for the interpretation of that glyph.

This is more about interpretation of language and communication than science. Which puts you somewhere between the “9” and “6” guys because you are at least keeping the conversation in the interpretation of data / epistemology arena.

The problem are the people who see this and call it woke or start rambling about a flat earth. Those are the real dumb fucks who aren’t talking about any reasonable interpretation of the thing that is clearly being discussed.

It reminds me of the steam machines from over a decade ago

Hopefully they ban enough popular people for their switch to a federated video sharing platform to have an impact on viewership.

Tesla is a great example of how genius is not a generalizable thing. He is the reason most of us have electricity, but he was a mess when it come to understanding people.

Tribes 3 has active servers but they aren’t well populated.
