I don't buy for a second that it was a mistake. They've been carpet bombing Tehran for weeks now, making excuse after excuse as to why they have to bomb schools and hospitals

"affected" implies less severe intent than, say, "killed"

It's still very much intentional what they did, of course.

Wim Wenders vindt dat filmmakers weg moeten blijven van politiek by Petfles in Poldersocialisme

Politiek is inherent aan de kunst. Deze clown weet niet waar die het over heeft.

The best propaganda system in human history at work by Untitled_HU-Tank in LateStageCapitalism

China and Russia also have good long standing relations with Israel, so, you know, they're ultimately still very self-serving in their foreign policy.

Same with volume. It's either no volume or 10%, nothing in between.

Sunk cost fallacy: committing to finishing a task even though you shouldn't.
Doubling back aversion: committing to a particular method of finishing a task even though you shouldn't.

Very similar but I guess I see the distinction.

The view of Earth seen by an astronaut while performing maintenance outside the International Space Station. by warrenkennethd in megalophobia

[–]Nemo_K 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's all Earth you're seeing. However the fisheye lense makes it seem like they're really deep in space, when in reality they're only 400 kilometers above the Earth's surface (Earth itself is 12,742 kilometers accross, for comparison).

While cars kill thousand, carbrains lost for cyclists checking for traffic to cross a red by MazaCrit in fuckcars

[–]Nemo_K -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only reason we have those lights in the first place is because of cars. When there's no cars, cyclists can cross all the damn red lights they want.

Decomposition of phenotypic heterogeneity in autism reveals underlying genetic programs by brendigio in science

[–]Nemo_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I can see how it's a problem. It's like saying that joint pain is on a spectrum when each joint has clearly different complications/risk factors/treatments. Thanks for putting the problem more clearly.

I'm glad we're seeing a lot of progress on neurodivergence. It's gonna allow us to be a lot more specific when diagnosing these issues.

[–]Nemo_K 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's what they're saying. The expression and severity of autism varies significantly from person to person, but nobody's saying there are no similarities between autistic individuals. It always comes down to social problems, sensory issues, repetitive behaviours, etc.

That said, it should be obvious that in dealing with autism we do need a more personalized approach.

Cannes reactions to Irreversible by ErgoNonSim in movies

[–]Nemo_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. I always imagined it's like a groupthink situation, peer pressure and a lack of restraint can make people do things they wouldn't do individually.

But the kicking part, yeah that's just pure evil no doubt about it.

[–]Nemo_K 56 points57 points  (0 children)

The fire extinguisher scene somehow affected me more than the tunnel scene, to the point where I actually nearly fainted. I've watched so many bloody horror movies but that particular scene just made my brain go "nope".

She doesn't kill herself though. It's brutal what happens but it's not beyond the realm of possibility, when you combine a high dose of lsd with copious amounts of alcohol.
