What are the rules about following orders from someone who seems mentally incapacitated?

… so the US is constantly getting ripped off by trade deals, but somehow is still the richest country the world has ever known… make it make sense…

As someone who also doesn’t fully understand quantum entanglement… is it that when two particles are entangled and far apart, when we observe them they will always be in the same state? Is there any way to manipulate that state? If so, it seems like it would be pretty straight forward to use it for faster than light communications.

I had a thought the other day that I’m not nearly financially literate enough to know how true it is, but with all the talk about stocks going up, couldn’t that be an effect of the dollar going down?

I will say that I don’t live in the UK, so maybe it works differently. I’m assuming internet plans include some kind of service contract you have to sign, and minors can’t legally sign contracts without parental consent. So every internet connection is the responsibility of the adult who did sign it. If kids are going to be using it then it is their responsibility to put parental controls on their network and devices.

But like the other response said, its not actually about protecting kids. Basically, if a politician ever says those words, its almost certainly an attempt to take away freedom.

What happened to the assumtion that people on the internet are all adults. No kid is signing a contract for a phone or internet plan. They are on the internet through the permission of an adult who has. Its the responsibility of that adult to make sure they don’t do anything they shouldn’t. Don’t make it other people’s problem that you can’t control your kids. We shouldn’t try to kid-proof the world.

I have an eighth that I had tucked away and forgot about. I recently found it but am kinda scared of it. Its at least a decade old now, and I don’t know how long they’re good for… I don’t imagine they age like wine. I was thinking of maybe trying to make a tea but don’t really know how to do that either.

I understand. Skilled trade is still a job that one needs to find in order to get paid. You either need to go to trade school then find a job or find someone to take on an apprentice and learn on the job.

Those jobs might pay well after a while, but what I wouldn’t like is the reason those jobs pay well is usually because they require a lot of overtime. So yes you might be able to buy a house, but you won’t get to spend as much time actually living in it.

The trade-off is that finding a job that doesn’t require the large debt that comes with college means the job might not pay enough for a house, or if it does, its the kind of job where you don’t get much time to actually spend at said house.

I remember hearing that one potential reason for it not being as popular in the US was that TV stations couldn’t make as much money since theres no timeouts or stopages in play. American football has a lot more down time allowing for more ads.

Personally I think American football is boring as shit. Its one 5sec play followed by 30sec of standing around. Average game is something like 3hrs, but theres only about 10min where the ball is actually in play.

When’s the next special election? My guess is they won’t open back up until they can get another pedophile protector in there.

I wasn’t impressed. It reminded me of the video of the truck that’s going to hit a concrete post but cuts to a different angle and replays right before it does.

Everything is transactional with this admin. No one is just donating that amount. Undoubtedly they expect favors in return. Is America great when our military is up for sale/ rent?

That’s why my favorite euphemism for sex is “bumping uglies”. Its just a perfect description of it.

My bad. “Please expand” to me sounds like you’re asking how they’ve gone too far in a possibly disbelieving manner similar to asking for a source.

… are you having trouble opening your eyes? You have to ask your eyelids politely?

I still feel like we are talking about two different people. Almost non of what you said aligns with what I remember, but I don’t remember learning much about him in high school at all. I just remember that there was a plan for reconstruction and he threw most of it out. In the show “Manhunt” they made it seem like he did that to appease the rich confederates who he thought were instrumental to the economy.

I wasn’t blaming the fed. I’m blaming specifically Andrew Johnson. He gave in to confederates. There was a plan to give land to former slaves, but he undid it all after Lincoln was shot. He was the reason the fed didn’t crack down harder on the violence. He supported the racists.
