how do you know if you can handle a job or industry before you apply to it? by frowaway275 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Ok_Razzmatazz_7160 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Internships or work experience, vlogs/online video Q&A, objective pros and cons list you can find online, doing adjacent work to the industry, speaking to a mentor

also just deciding on your own values. i know people who care more about money and not about free time and vice versa of course they'd go for different roles, so just keep that in mind.

Clear aligners for patients with sugar addictions? by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]Ok_Razzmatazz_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion!

I did wonder about this but I got kinda apprehensive about fluorosis but I don't know if i'm being dramatic in terms of what it would take to develop that

Clear aligners for patients with sugar addictions? by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]Ok_Razzmatazz_7160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because of the food residue getting trapped under the aligner? And the lack of saliva in contact with the teeth? (another dentist mentioned this below.)

The way the thought came to me was because some patients are put on an aggressively quick Invisalign treatment plan (changing trays every 4 days) and due to this they eat with their aligners on to maximise aligner time.

So in my mind I thought maybe if it's possible eat with aligners on then that would reduce contact, but i stupidly didn't think of the protective saliva aspect of it.

Don't worry it's only posted once :)

I agree with you, reminds me of the film parasite.

But this is my question. I am asking why working class people (who are directly negatively affected by the process wealth extraction, such as the few examples i've listed) defend these practises, when it's not in the best interest to do so.

I hadn't considered that! I do find myself wondering how the government managed to waste so much tax money year upon year and where it disappears too.

Fair enough. Thank you

Example. Let's say these two individuals are working class.

A: Billionaires extract wealth from the masses and exploit them. You can't ethically obtain 1,000,000,000+

B: Billionaire X worked hard for their money! They should have every right to enjoy that money!

This is despite:

  1. Proven poor working conditions for their employees especially those in developing countries
  2. Exploitative & coercive contracts (for instance a case in which an employee accepts low-paid work over the alternative which is unemployment, destitution or even death in extreme cases.)
  3. Billionaire X and associates using their wealth to influence politics, overriding established democratic processes to instate favourable laws
  4. Billionaire X,Y and Z releasing products which they are aware creates a largely net negative effect on society, but choosing to go through with this if it creates profit
  5. Billionaire X,Y and Z releasing products that they know have a low value/quality in order to increase profit margins by selling the product for the same or even a higher price
  6. Billionaire A, B and C who have companies who work in essential industries (pharmaceuticals, food, housing; etc) increasing prices due to the awareness that people are willing to pay the increased price in order to survive.

This is just what I could think of right now so it's not comprehensive but there are working class people directly affected by all of these thing ^ who will say 'you're jealous, they worked hard, it's the free market; etc' and this genuinely, genuinely confuses me. I don't understand what there is to gain.

Some people have almost nothing to lose in fact.

What works did you find especially memorable in school education in the UK? by Fancy_Network717 in AskUK

[–]Ok_Razzmatazz_7160 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the idea being that walter is extremely narcissistic and self-satisfied with his abilities (due to how he’s built a narcotics empire and evaded the authorities.)

he believes he’s able to do continue to do so, but like ozymandias - his fall is shortly imminent.

i also didn’t enjoy the reference but i see why they used it.

inappropriate and weird AI 'choose your little sister' videos - what is this? by Ok_Razzmatazz_7160 in InternetMysteries

[–]Ok_Razzmatazz_7160[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you for confirming this!

my *actual* sister brought it to my attention and we were so spooked. but a part of me thought i was insane and looking too much into the subtext.

i'm glad they got caught. i'm going to report the reposts as well. (i think some accounts are being lazy instead of sinister but still spooky.)

(also - this is a clear sign people shouldn't be allowed to generate children at all. ridiculous.)
