@BrianPThomas@theojaffee Switzerland barely has wilderness areas. Nearly every river valley has a road and towns through it! We have vast tracts of wilderness in the US that have great recreational access. That is extremely rare in the world. Why would we populate that with settlements?
@sbinskii@argos611@DylanDoubly No a real comparison would be if you made a an insurance company called Libertie Mutual and had the Statue of Liberty as the logo and tried to trademark it. The problem is using similar name + logo and selling products in the same category AND trying to trademark it yourself
@transsexual1ty @GutokuEijin Probably because all Anglo countries have large numbers of immigrants from around the world who notice when one of their foods has a different name in English or is pronounced differently. No one notices when Polish people don’t use the actual name for a Korean dish for example
@NavinFS@averylargeson@biznuz_nunya@LinkofSunshine The reaction to the result of 95% of doctors getting the question “wrong” does! The scenario that the question posits doesnt exist. Doctors know how confident they can be in tests they administer. I dont believe u can use the results from this question to say anything relevant.
@NavinFS@averylargeson@biznuz_nunya@LinkofSunshine … but if you test positive it doesn’t just stop there and treatment begins LMAO. Besides, the premise that doctors don’t understand the statistics surrounding the tests they administer because of definitions is nonsense.
@averylargeson@biznuz_nunya@LinkofSunshine Ok but diseases are not diagnosed based on a single test where it says on a piece of paper that it has a “99% accuracy rate”—but that doesn’t actually mean you can have 99% confidence that it’s accurate—you have to do math to figure that out! Like what?
@IndianS9861 @dillyaali@BussyKeaton While many gay men are like this, there is a similar amount not like this. You just are aware of the 1st kind bc they are highly visible. The 2nd kind you don’t even notice. And the 2nd kind is more likely to lead a traditional life and adopt children anyway.
@alanthefisher@Frostyhawk89 As someone who has lived 5 years in both cities, Seattle is definitely ahead of Minneapolis in terms of urbanism and “real city” feel
@loganb What is a “significant food poisoning incident”? Are you considering incidents that are mild enough to not require hospitalization or doctor visits but still involve vomiting and diarrhea? These type of incidents are unacceptable in my opinion too!
@NsbSo @kferrDC @PushDemsLeft@FunkyCMedina21 Please spend 5 minutes reading about the Iranian regime. There are plenty of criticisms to be made about the US, but there is simply no comparison to the brutality and oppressiveness of the Iranian regime. Just stop.
@cath_menarion@greg_buchak That doesn’t absolve it from criticism?? LOL the original post was just pointing out an absurdity of the senate in the modern day.
@austinahlman Abundance is about letting high productive areas reach their full potential and not letting regulation hinder the development of a city. I don’t believe it is about bringing back demand to a forgotten city.
@tbaudinette My point is that the fact that BL has been a big genre in Asia for years is kind of irrelevant here. The primary scope of western media outlets is the West. So they’re going to report on this shows buzz like it’s something new. Because it is!
