There’s nothing wrong with the lesson here but this sounds fake. Those are the two most superficial stereotypes of class life with no explanation how you bridged that gap. There is a big jump in happiness when you no longer have to worry about making ends meet. From there, you just have to not get caught up in consumer envy.

But hey this is the internet so who knows

Yep. Super fair. Wefwef is the app but I’ll see if I can get a web version to work. “Click on trending helped”

Now that just makes me curious as hell about the original work for bear. Maybe something more similar to the Latin “ursa”?

Does that mean Beowulf means bee wolf in old English?

Out of ignorance I literally thought this was a joke. “Orange you glad I didn’t say raspberry?”

“Probably not dumb” love the honest appraisal of unknown variables. I’m like the science fan in big hero 6. Not smart enough to do science but smart enough to enjoy it.

This clock concept is still so abstract I don’t know what the “clock” could possibly be or look like

Yeah and that requires way fewer skills and resources

Yeah. I read that multiple times and still have no idea what he’s talking about but it’s the most important part of the article

Thank you. I think this nuance is often lost by those barely paying attention

Oh no way. My childhood house was that way. Both floors were ground floors

For any Americans, the 1st floor in Australia (and many other countries) is equivalent to the second floor in America (hence it being above the garage)

No way this isn’t an AI photo

I’m betting job cuts and someone was in a hurry

Yeeeesssss. Love seeing Red Rising references. Trying so hard to get my wife to read it

Rofl

Yeah. But sorry I don’t wanna get into classified info on Lemmy lol

They don’t aim upwards really because the missile would chase the flare as it falls and bring the defending plane right back into the field of view of the seeker. The flares are supposed to pull the missile away from the aircraft. Source: my plane has flares.

I will also say that “detonating” is a very silly word for this situation because they burn rather than explode. This shouldn’t understate the danger though of ingestion of a burning flare into an engine (modern helicopters like this have small engines that power the rotor) or impact with the rotor which has the potential to cause an even more violent end. If the helicopter is operating with its side doors open, that flare could even enter the cabin and cause serious injury if not loss of the whole aircraft. All of this to protect sales to an evil dictator (NK)

Yeah and bird bones are hollow

No. I don’t like the way pants feel on my legs. Why would I want them on my arms.

That being said I don’t know anyone that does so maybe it’s really just cuz I’m not Canadian like others have suggested.
