Another person already replied using your equation, but I felt the need to reply with a simpler one as well that shows it:

9-1+3=?

Subtraction first:
8+3=11

Addition first:
9-4=5

Sounds like PayID in Australia. I find it pretty good and it's starting to get more popular. And yeah with ours you can just set up a new email and link it to an account, then it'll let you choose if you want it to show John Smith or just J Smith when someone sends you money. You can also use a phone number or an ABN (Australian business number).

PayPal is still more popular overall, but I prefer payid for the instant access to the money so I'm glad it's gaining momentum. Nothing but PayPal ever took off over here.

If someone disputes $500 with your bank, your bank doesn't hold your whole $15,000 account while sorting it.

This appears to be the author.

So then let me ask you this. Why did you agree the top 200 are the richest? Why is 200 such a magic number? By your logic it would actually just be the top 100. No wait top 50. Oh wait no, literally only the richest person is the richest, because you can't have a bigger group, or else you have to include the entire earth for some reason. Because a bigger group of the category "richest people" contains that single richest person.

So the Republican party isn't the worst, because there's a single member of it that is the actual worst. So whoever we vote for is the lesser evil, as long as we don't vote for literally just the single guy that is the worst. Makes sense right?

Correct. The group, as a whole, are the most.

Maybe you need a different example to understand.

Take the 400 wealthiest people in the world. They make 2 gangs, first one is made up of the top 200 richest and the second is made up of the 201-400 richest people.

The first group is the richest of the two. But the 2 groups, as a whole, are made up of the richest people in the world.

Make sense?

Who could have possibly predicted the number 1 place suggested as a reddit alternative to redditers every time shit hits the fan (basically monthly) would turn into reddit?

Maybe try Tildes.

As a collective, as in, you group both sides into one group of "democratic and republican politicians", that group is made up of the worst scum human history has ever seen.

Now if you put the individual people in a scale, or break them into certain groups, some will be less bad/evil than others. But that doesn't change the original statement.

There was an exploit in version 0.17.0 through 0.19.0 (fixed in 0.19.1) that, from what I understand, allowed people to view DMs of anyone by reporting them, but as you can't know the ID of a given DM you're not part of, they couldn't really target a specific user, but rather would just send reports to a range of potential IDs and see what comes back.

They say using it is contributing to the creation of CP. This is akin to claiming using/buying/improving cameras is contributing to the creation of cp as they use cameras to take the pictures. Should we have just not invented photography, printers, the internet etc just because it facilitates the creation and distribution of cp?

That's true, but tbh I only know about it because chat gpt put me onto it. I asked it how to access jellyfin outside my home and it told me tailscale and explained how to set it up pretty easily.

Near me there's a giant roundabout joining 6 roads together, 2 of them highways, and it works fine as one roundabout. You just enter the roundabout and exit at your exit, it's not complicated and it doesn't need to be.

And then people still cut across parts?

I set up tailscale for remote access and it was pretty easy and painless. Maybe not as "average user" simple as plex, but no harder than setting up lan games to play across the internet that non techy people were doing in my high school 20 years ago.

We're still talking about the purge, right?

I think the issue they're having is why are there still young people that smoke, regardless of income, demographic, race, area, every category has some amount of young people smoking. You can't explain them ALL away by lack of education, unideal upbringing, etc etc.

My mum always said when I was growing up she believes no one will smoke soon since we have so much education on it in school. Yet I'm 37 and teens are still starting smoking. I live in what is considered a fairly rich and well educated area. They're not addicted before they start. They do have a choice. It is as simple as making the choice not to start. They're not in a situation that they don't know better.

We shouldn't have as many people under 40, under 30, under 20 smoking as we do.

Caffeine doesn't affect me. Never drank coffee regularly any time in my life, but any time I've attempted to use caffeine from any source (including some pretty strong energy drinks) to either wake up, or stay awake, I haven't felt any different at all.

Well consider you're on the deck in the open air during a storm, waves crashing everywhere, people yelling, you can barely hear anything.

Do you want to keep asking them to repeat which way to turn because you can't hear? Or do you wanna know short word/one noise = right and long word/two noises = left?

I'll use the scapegoat of most people with Windows aren't actively trying to do things that might massively break it, and additionally the vast majority wouldn't know how to fix it even with a second device on hand and would get someone else to do it anyway.
