Is KAOS with Jeff Goldblum worth watching?
  • I agree with you on the ending. It felt like they intentionally left a lot unresolved to encourage calls for a second season, at the expense of the story. It would have been much better if there was some resolution to a few aspects and/or a hint at the fallout of the actions in the season.

    Good subtle world building, too.

  • Cocoon of Self-Righteousness
  • The phrasing was "you get fault points for" which strongly suggests assigning fault rather than listing out "points at fault".

    Also I think the term would be "points of failure" for the way you read it. At least that's howbive heard it used and used it myself.

  • Atheists of lemmy what is a stereotype about us that is just not true?
  • I quite like them. And I don't mind Jehovah's witnesses. I can ignore or politely send them away without much hassle. But I think it's nice that they believe they can save people and actively try to do so. If I believed, I hope I would be a good enough person to try to save everyone else, too.

    Of course, this doesn't apply to people who are trying to force people or demand poor treatment of people with different beliefs. It really depends where it comes from.

  • House Speaker Mike Johnson says God will punish “depraved” U.S. because more teens identify as LGBTQ+
  • As long as there's a system, I think they're useful. You can argue they weight things incorrectly but it's useful to have some way to see how a country does against the same evaluation for rest of the world. I don't know if this is the best data, but I don't see anything that pops out as particularly odd.

    At the bottom, it's not much between NK and the two below. But the two below are Myanmar and Afghanistan, which I don't think is too crazy.

  • I certainly never intended to silence discussion. I'd have said I was opening up the discussion, if anything, by poi ting out that there's some data available that suggests the USA is far from the most democratic nation. Which, as I read it, was a tongue in cheek statement in the comment I replied to.

    But, now it is being discussed, I'm interested in the view that monarchy should have a paeticylarly large negative weight on the ranking. I'm not a royalist and think any monarchy with even a hint of power means less than absolute democracy. But I don't think many of the monarchies in those high ranking countries have as much of a negative impact as other factors that can reduce the input of a population to the democratic process. The big one for me would be how individual voting gets weighted.

  • "What's the shadiest incident you've ever experienced?"
  • I think if you found the shop magically disappeared the next day after selling only the things people were looking for, no matter how random, it would make more sense.

    Maybe they only sold drugs because someone wanted some.

    Study Developing a Needs Assessment Plan for Self-Management of Adult ADHD

    Participate in a study that looks at developing needs assessment plans for self-management of ADHD. This is run by someone with ADHD who is doing funded, academic research that has real outcomes and is done in collaboration with the people it is for. The study has had a full ethics review.

    To be clear: this isn't my study but the researcher will know it's posted here and will see the comments on this post.
