– How rap sounds to non-English speakers
most music I can’t understand what someone singing
Just like the rest of us, tbh.
To anyone thinking, “We surived one term of Trump. How bad can another one be?”
Very bad, as John Oliver points out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYwqpx6lp_s
On average, we respond solely to voice pitch, tonality, body language and facial expressions, like a still developing toddler…
You wouldn’t believe how close you are.
[…Researches] recruited 684 Swiss students and asked them to rate pairs of politicians who had run against each other in the 2002 French parliamentary elections. Based solely on black-and-white photos of the candidates, they had to say who was more competent and by what degree. There were 57 pairs in all, and each volunteer rated just one.
They found that the students’ competence judgments predicted the actual winners of the run-offs with a 72% accuracy.
[A] group of children would be able to predict the outcome of elections in another country, based only on photos of the candidates […] is exactly what a recent study in the journal Science has found.
Swiss children as young as five years can predict which candidates are more likely to win French parliamentary elections.

The children were just as good at predicting election results as the grown-ups were;
(first article again)
Then hope they filled it quick enough and there weren’t any Sundays or holidays to mess with it.
I used to think stores didn’t care about Sundays in the US and were always open.
Are you saying the individually dispensed medications are all sent to the pharmacy pre-filled?
This is what a box of Paracetamol (a pain killer and anti-inflammatory drug) looks like when you buy it at the pharmacy (this particular image seems to be from a different country, but they look similar).
That sounds wildly inefficient and inflexible in terms of transport/logistics/packaging tbh.
Well, yes. I get that point. It would save some deliveries to store 5kg of the drug at the pharmacy and have the containers separate. There are instances when they tell you they only have the 100-dose package on hand and need to have the 25-dose package delivered. That usually happens when you first start a long-time medication. The pharmacy will then deliver the medication to you for free (at least ours, I don’t know if that’s usual).
repercussions to filling a prescription wrong, especially if someone is injured
The trouble is, repercussions don’t help any injured person. And they require you to notice that you’ve taken the wrong medication. If you simply don’t feel better, your first instinct might not be “the drugs are wrong”.
There’s also usually a description on the printed label of what the pill should look like
We have that, to, but with a gut estimate of around 10,000 different drugs in circulation, that doesn’t really help with distinguishing them safely.
It’s obvious from this exchange:
WHICH PAUL U FUCK
Mom’s brother???
Or Jeanie’s husband???
Yes
The sister (grey) was clearly responding to “Mom’s brother???”, but just as she hit “send”, teal asked “Or Jeanie’s husband???”.
People who give both options in an obvious one-or-the-other question deserve to receive “Yes” as a response.
Also, what is “Jsuk”?
I’m not really sure what suggested to you that they didn’t tbh.
This is an excerpt from the comment I replied to:
I don’t understand how it can possibly take 2 hours to count a couple dozen pills, throw them in an orange tube, and slap a label on it
Normalerweise haben die Streicheltiere Rückzugsmöglichkeiten – für Kaninchen z.B. einen Stall – in die sie sich zurückziehen können, wenn sie nicht mehr wollen.
Da war Platz für noch mindestens 5 weitere falsche Kommas.
Thanks, that’s enough details.
I can’t understand that you guys are at an (probably minimum wage) employee’s mercy to put the right pills into the right container to get the drugs you actually need and not something that kills you.
In Germany virtually all medications are brought to the pharmacy pre-packaged and (as of this year) stamped with a batch number on the outside and on each inner container, so you can be absolutely sure what’s inside really is what it says on the outside.
I mean, filling the tubes could be done so much faster and securely by a machine.
A version control system no-one uses. Like every other garbage VCS, it has fallen victim to git’s supremacy.
Yay, a likeminded person!
For Microsoft I fully understand that they’d rather have a subscription model for Windows. After all you’re getting updates every fortnight and critical patches ASAP. I wonder they let you buy their shit for so long.
Just in case someone brings it up—and someone will bring it up regardless—: I’m not defending their recent enshittification and “always online” mindset.
The Wall
The Berlin Wall? Pink Floyd’s The Wall? The US-Mexico border wall? More details, please.
I’m amazed that no-one has complained that the graph’s data points are on the borders between categories rather than inside the category bars.
With that out of the way: WTF is wrong with that graph?
Is an alternative spelling to extroversion and more close to the original Latin root.
I used to think that at least the parts that are Fairtrade wouldn’t be affected as much.
When did adults stop being able to form coherent sentences?
