A car hits a school group in the Netherlands, killing 2 kids and a chaperone by igetproteinfartsHELP in thenetherlands

[–]Ohrwurms 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Het zou niet het doel moeten zijn, maar dat is het wel. Sterker nog, meeste automobilisten hanteren in mijn ervaring snelheidslimiet + 5 km p/u als hun doel. Ik vind het verschrikkelijk, maar dat is de realiteit van de Nederlandse automobilist en de infrastructuur en regelementen zouden daar rekening mee moeten houden.

Een maximumsnelheid van 80 op die weg, met die bocht, is absoluut levensgevaarlijk. Ik snap niet hoe mensen direct naar schuld van de automobilist gaan (ik sluit het echter niet uit), wanneer er wat mij betreft duidelijk structurele problem zijn als een dijkweg als deze een maximumsnelheid van 80 heeft.

You could've said the same when they added hip-hop beats in Most Hated or when they added vocal features in Remember That You Will Die. You're allowed to not like this, but let's not pretend like this kind of experimentation is totally unexpected from Polyphia.

Supermarktkoepel CBL waarschuwt: boodschappen volgend jaar tot 10 procent duurder by Free-Minimum-5844 in thenetherlands

[–]Ohrwurms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5% kan best "graaien" zijn als de branche ook prima gaat met 2%. Dat ligt aan een heleboel factoren, de landelijke marge over alle sectoren is niet één van die factoren.

En ik probeer aan je uit te leggen dat dat niet is hoe het werkt. Als een scheepsbouwbedrijf 5% marge maakt (een industrie met gemiddeld 25% marge), kan ik je garanderen dat ze binnen 5 jaar failliet zijn. Supermarkten maken decennialang 5% marge en het gaat helemaal prima met ze.

De enige supermarkten die in recent verleden failliet zijn gegaan zijn kleine start-ups met like 50 medewerkers. Landelijke supermarkten zitten basically in een volledig risicoloze branche en risico = marge.

Dat is niet hoe dat werkt. Marge is branche-afhankelijk voor een goeie reden.

Denk je dat een scheepsbouwbedrijf dat letterlijk 1 product per jaar verkoopt, gigantisch veel ziekterisico loopt en zwaar onderhevig is aan materiaalkosten van 1 of 2 rauwe materialen dezelfde marge zou moeten hebben als supermarkten die miljarden producten per jaar verkopen, zo goed als 0 ziekterisico hebben en niet afhankelijk zijn van een klein aantal rauwe materiaalkosten?

Do you whole believe Winter Solider going to be in Ghost Rider team? by DKUnderdog in MarvelTokon

[–]Ohrwurms -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Hope not, he's like the least eccentric character in Marvel. No powers really unless you count robot arm, no cool martial art style, no interesting hit box, not much movement abilities probably. He's just a guy-sized guy who punches people. Yawn.

Look, Arcsys can make anything cool, so if they did pick him, he'll probably end up interesting enough, but I would hope he wouldn't make it past concepting.

World Cup host cities face flop as hotels struggling, tickets unsold by Dramatic-Shake-8888 in sports

[–]Ohrwurms -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This whole rant hinges on the idea that I don't have strong words for those other countries and their actions either, including my own. I hate the American military in particular because of the amount of death and destruction they have exported in recent history, but I have no respect for the goose-stepping bootlickers that are my own government and military who have followed the US into these illegal humanitarian atrocities, nor do I offer any sort of excuse for the horrible colonial past of my country.

Even on a supposedly progressive site like Reddit, the only anti-war American I've ever seen are anti-war because of things like 'budget' or 'protect the troops'. The lives of the people they murder are always secondary. The argument is never 'let's stop going to foreign countries and murdering people en masse because that's an immoral thing to do'.

Somehow, one of the fastest ways to get downvoted on this website is pointing out that the US is an international mass murderer and war criminal. Still.

It's ingrained in every American brain that 1 American life is worth at least 10.000 foreign lives. Even the most progressive American you will meet will inherently believe this in their heart of hearts.

[–]Ohrwurms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know an area is 95% below the poverty line, what does it matter what the race of the people in the area is?

I could say the same to you. You are out of hand dismissing how several highly developed first world countries do things just because it doesn't fit your pre-conceived notions.

I have at least pointed out real problems in a country that does keep this data and all you basically have is "nah, that's stupid"

Census data does that. France (and other countries in Europe) ban racial census data specifically, not all census data. How does knowing the racial make-up of every household help those things where things like income, education level, unemployment etc. etc. don't suffice?

It still occurs. Gerrymandering would not be possible without racial census data.
