Lol ok, yeah, that’s probably what it was.

You might want to look into some studies done on those studies – there are IQ tests that historically (and sometimes presently) had culturally-ingrained aspects to their questions that made it hard for minorities and newcomers to answer properly. E.g., IQ tests with questions about baseball that assume the test-taker knows how many innings are in a game, how many outs/balls/strikes to get a player out, etc.

Wikipedia seems to have a lot to say on it, including some of the criticisms.

But generally speaking you’re probably looking at what’s mostly a correlation, not a direct causation.

Well, I’m not seeing anyone calling you out yet. But maybe you made it sound more racist before, or something? Lol

Measles outbreaks are coming back, lol

Meanwhile, there’s what, 20x more fentanyl coming into Canada from the US than from Canada into the US?

For Nostalgia? Red/Blue and Gold/Silver.

HG/SS and B/W are up there too for different reasons.

And funnily enough, I actually enjoyed S/V quite a bit. Aside from the lull between gens 6 through 8ish, there’s a lot to like throughout the series imo. A lot to dislike too, but still a lot to like.

It’s not a regular ID to vote. It’s a regular ID.

You need an ID to vote, but you can use it for many other things too.

If getting an ID is a barrier for you to vote, then talk to your representatives and they might be able to help you out.

I dunno, some tea drinkers can have pretty involved rituals! Haha

Black tea needs to be brewed pretty close to boiling, and even green tea is brewed at 185, the same temp as the McDonald’s coffee incident

What the f- oh, American units

I was wondering what the heck kind of green tea needed that kind of treatment, lol

If you have an idea that you regularly get called out on, you should probably say it and be willing to truly listen to what people are saying about it…lol

I feel like a chunk of the population of Lemmy is people who got banned from Reddit.

And a portion of that chunk got banned for being too young according to Reddit’s T&C, lol

8 hours a day plus whatever the commute time is (times two)

In some countries it does.

Long sentences are useful when they don’t try to fix prisoners. Because if you can’t fix them, you can at least keep them out of society.

Probably something like 99.9% of guns or more are legal guns when they’re manufactured. If there were fewer legal guns produced and out there, there’d be fewer illegal guns for criminals, would-be or otherwise, to get their hands on.

In a way, they’re right that there’s an alternative. But the alternative is death, and most sane people wouldn’t prefer that.

Good luck fixing some of them in 10 years…

In the US, I think they do consecutive sentencing. So that’d be 10 years times 100 or 200 crimes

You can either get the documentation reprinted, or get tested, no?

We heard too much, and we saw too much

Yeah, that is what happened, sir. And you believed it all and your daughter died because of it.

That would really be China taking over Korea, then. That’s not North Korea taking over

Meanwhile, a dozen eggs are like $5 in CAD in CA (aka. Canada)
