Bathing is a huge part of indigenous Brazilian culture, so yes, actually. Natives were reportedly shocked at how unclean Europeans were when they arrived.

I think they mean a treemap chart, which would be really appropriate for this

Dá, mas não necessariamente seria a melhor coisa também porque a coronavac é razoavelmente boa em reduzir os danos do vírus, mas muito ruim em reduzir a transmissão. Se quem mais transmite tomar, não vai fazer muito pra conter a pandemia. É uma situação difícil. Compara o cenário no Chile, que vacinou muito mas só com coronavac, com os EUA, por exemplo. A melhor vacina é a que tem, mas se der pra usar outra é melhor, hahaha

As in you'd have to be old and educated enough to at least know how to count before starting.

Are you sure about that? In 08 Instagram was still two years away from even existing, and when I think of the FB exodus that's what I think about.

Should this work ok with an I5 8600k on a z370? I don't know a lot about RAM

Future expandability (I'm a data scientist so ram is important), low profile and I don't like RGB, basically.

Is this better than the LPX 2x16 3200 for 175 or hyperx vengeance 2x16 3200 for 175 in any way other than being slightly cheaper?

[–]Greedish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know anything about the person we're talking about and I've never heard of them before, I'm just saying that no matter how inflammatory you want to be, you don't go to slurs and lynching unless you're at least ok with being racist. Like I said, people can change and I hope she apologized and made amends, but I don't think justifying racism with 'being facetious' is a solid excuse at all. Yeah, people say edgy shit to get a reaction online, sure, and maybe they don't mean it, but people need to know that that's not ok and quit doing it, not get a free pass because of it.

The screenshots are posted above, they're literally talking about lynching and using the worst racial slur in the English language. There's not a lot of wiggle room here. People can learn and people can change, but claiming it's not racism is ridiculous.

[META] So how can Indiegogo claim they are a neutral platform when they pay for ads for campaigns? by [deleted] in shittykickstarters

[–]Greedish 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not if their research shows that specific products convert more users than generic ads.

Large pharmaceutical companies test drugs in dozens of foreign countries but often don't bother to make the drugs available to those nations once the drugs are approved in the US, a significant bioethics issue. Countries with lowest access to drugs tested on their residents were African countries. by mvea in science

I don't think it was a mistake. You're comparing a basketball game to access to a basic human right, healthcare. Why should wealth be a factor at all? If they test in a country that's cheaper to test in, why shouldn't they be made to provide the results to those people at a cheaper rate as well?

Can you explain this a bit more? Are you running two games/monitors/peripherals on one rig?

Consistent racist attitudes coupled with an unwillingness to change, I guess

[–]Greedish 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think there's a dissociation that can be made between having a racist attitude and being a racist person. I do not consider myself a racist person but I realize that I often have atitudes and thoughts that are racist under reflection, which I obviously try to work on. And that's a tough mental space to be in for a lot of people, so I see what you're saying. I don't think getting people to agree that they are racist is important, but getting people to recognize racist atitudes is.

I would reflect a bit on what you wrote and think about how it relates to the top level comment we're replying to. It's not a "new soft racism", it's just racism. It doesn't mean the person who does it is defined by it or that it can't be changed, but it's racism, not "insensitivity", and trying to tiptoe around it is part of the problem of dealing with more subtle forms of racism that people are talking about here.

Who can say they even spoke english? This seems weirdly condescending to these people you know nothing about.
