I do stats and play video games. Sometimes at the same time.
DMs are open for projects that need stats/data viz help.

@TheGirondin @MarkAPippin @BustinTrudeau I was also partially wrong. It seems red foxes are more important for keeping mouse populations down and wolves predated coyotes that predated the red foxes. Definitely more deer now than there used to be

[Lemonici @Lemonici]

@TheGirondin @BustinTrudeau It's not that the predators ate ticks. It's that they ate their food (deer)

@St1ka To go viral it has to be intelligible to enough people for it to be shared. At the same time, it has to make the reader feel Very Smart™. So a few digestible math facts dominate the meme space

@stejveer7 @dark1x @SMetaldave64 CRTs flash the image and then turn black, but they do it so fast it looks like a continuous image (this can break down a bit on very white screens). Modern displays keep the image up until it's time for a new one. Because of the way our eyes work, this looks blurry.

@stejveer7 @dark1x @SMetaldave64 Because the technology uses 'sample-and-hold', that is, it leaves the image up until it's time to draw a new image, human persistence of vision still leads to perceived motion blur. This is why he mentioned BFI, which inserts black frames between visible ones and is more CRT-like

@nim_chimpsky_ Money is reusable. Wagering $400m doesn't require $400m in cash if you don't do all your bets at once.

(Gambling is still dumb, though)

@shagbark_hick Suicide rates are correlated with altitude and this extends to suicides not involving guns and beyond the US where 2A isn't relevant

@pendefig @yuripsycho100 I think 'characteristic' is putting it in contrast with other wars, and WWII had markedly more atomic bombs than other wars (Cold War notwithstanding)

@Pirat_Nation I am deeply pro-MiSTer, but "passes all tests we know of" is not the same as 100% hardware accurate. Perfect accuracy is an ideal. It can never be proven

@GuliKitDesign Why would you only give it 4 face buttons?

[Lemonici @Lemonici]

@ChipPuppypaws @GuliKitDesign Presumably this is because you've used the Xbox 360 controller with its war crime of a d-pad. If this is anything like the Saturn controller it was based on, this will be one of the best d-pads ever made.

@TierZoo @lilsketch #7 lets you identify empty containers, which is almost certainly very valuable in certain security contexts

@jlpmccurdy @dieworkwear Now is that Taiwan, Michigan or Taiwan, West Virginia? I often get the two confused

@DiscussingFilm One time my wife and I got locked out of a movie theater because the last show had started. We managed to flag down a worker who let us in but was visibly unimpressed with us being so late. Anyways we got into the theater and the trailers were still running

@DiniertoDesigns @kirawontmiss Assuming you have a passing familiarity with the existence of a beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake. Kendrick got Serena Williams, Drake's ex-gf, to participate in the SB performance of a 5x Grammy winning song about Drake being a pedophile

@Delnith777 @wingedbug @thetolerantweft Stop 99% of eggs and a woman is fertile 1 week every 8 years. Stop 99% of sperm and a man is fertile 8 years every 8 years

@mimihasstnazis @starnightyoongi @JennyENicholson @Rage_Crayon Unless you live in Flint, tap water in the US is potable. Kind of why Flint is a big deal, actually

@TierZoo I would expect an honorable mention for some dinosaur species and grizzlies to make top cut

@sir_parisii @St1ka Void Cat in the MiSTer discord identified it as Blood Storm, Time Killer's sequel. Very graphic disemboweling

[Lemonici @Lemonici]

@sir_parisii @St1ka Time Killers? Plenty of dismemberment and I think you can do gut shots, but they wouldn't be specifically, uniquely gory
