Speaking of water… How often do you actually see a drop of water shaped like a drop? Almost never

I went looking for old forums I used to frequent, and while the site itself is on the internet archive most of the conversations are lost. Only one or two snapshots a year

Predictive text also can vectorize words, but the number of vectors per word are much, much simpler.

If you want to appear more mature, start capitalizing your sentences and using less exclamation points. Some are fine, but never more than one to a sentence.

I’m not. I’m old, and have been following this conflict for decades. Hamas very often targets innocent Israelis in their attacks, and hides behind innocent Palestinians to make it difficult for Israel to target them. You can argue about whether it is justifiable or not that they do this, but there are many, many sources that they do.

There were many innocent civilians living in Nazi Germany, and a lot of them died in the interest of stopping them.

We try to minimize innocent deaths in war, but when the group you are fighting against uses hospitals as military locations and innocent people as human shields, it becomes difficult to do so

The site lists 4 torrents and none of them are mine. I assume this is because my ISP assigned a dynamic IP address

…what?

Science direct just hosts articles from other journals. Its a part of Elsevier

It’s not really fine if you like roaming around, though. There isn’t much of an open world, just many many small worlds with hand-placed POIs on some of them and procedurally generated stuff on the rest

I’m having a good time with the game but it definitely doesn’t scratch the same itch

The middle man is great if you want to ensure no action is ever taken

Sounds like a disingenuous argument.

If you’re a content creator and you can leave, you should. If you can’t, well obviously you shouldn’t yet.

Wearing traditional black clothes is not necessarily racist. Wearing blackface has a long history of being directly racist.

There isn’t an equivalent with wearing Nazi clothes.

Removing an episode for being racist (even though this one wasn’t racist) is not cultural genocide. Wearing blackface (I know, this wasn’t blackface) is not a culture that needs to be preserved.

Many publications on arxiv (or biorxiv or medrxiv, etc) are early drafts, or otherwise not scientifically rigorous and wouldn’t be published in an actual journal due to failing peer review. Take what you find there with a grain of salt.

Although you should also take any single peer-reviewed article with a grain of salt as well.

Specifically, the corresponding author (which should have their email listed in the publication)

Keep in mind you may get an “uncorrected proof” or “author copy” since many authors don’t want to run afoul of their publisher’s guidelines on giving out copies

np

It’s subtle, but yes it tastes “almost” sweet despite there being no sugar.

Do you drink sugary drinks or eat sugary foods on a regular basis? There is some research showing that excess sugar intake can drastically reduce your body’s ability to sense sweetness.

Not sure if this is a joke, but yeah. For me, it’s got a bit of acid (from the carbonic acid byproduct of carbonation) and a subtle sweetness. Plus whatever flavoring they add

This is normal. It’s also why, if you drink lots of sugary drinks, things like unsweetened tea or sparkling water (without sugar) become flavorless until you cut out the sugary drinks for a few weeks. Only after that will you begin to taste the natural flavors.
