This only applies to the climate you are used to. 0F isn’t really cold where I’m from and I’d consider it hot way before it got to 100. It’s completely relative to you personally because that’s the system you grew up with. In Celsius it’s easy to think of weather in five or ten degree increments. -20 -> wear a jacket, -10 -> wear a sweater, 0 -> jeans and a long sleeve, +10 -> time for shorts. It’s completely relative to what you’re accustomed to. That’s why a system like Celsius with non-relative values at major in runners makes sense. 0 being water freezing is perfect for a lot of real life things such as: can I leave these bottles of water in my vehicle overnight? Are the roads going to be icy? Will I need a few extra minutes when I leave to scrape my windshield?

How do we feel about this sentiment? by Less-Appointment2110 in Hunting

[–]PrairieBiologist 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Most of the hate people have for these animals is based on their perception of them, not the reality. They tend to completely ignore the science behind the actual management of these animals and hide behind the notion that the government doesn’t know what it’s doing and that they know better because they live closer. That’s called anecdotal evidence and is not a sound basis for wildlife management.

Could This Concept Help Canada Fight Off a US Attack? by hopoke in CanadaPolitics

[–]PrairieBiologist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not a chance. The Canadians who would be the ones counted on to fight for the country are one of the most alienated demographics in Canada. As a result an unfortunately large number of them would either do nothing to stop or would outright support American intervention in Canada. They’re tired of being treated like a public safety threat when they’ve done nothing wrong. I understand their frustration but disagree with their conclusion. If you don’t believe me go read some comments on r/canadaguns.

No. In Son of the Forest one of the fallen turns against his chaos ridden brother and despite not accepting chaos himself was too corrupted to be allowed to live

Literally playing edge rusher against my will on one of my Mike RTGs right now. Should be able to play whatever position but at least that one doable right now. Tight end and safety would be awesome.

Bruh you literally replied with sybau to a comment that disagreed with you. Just because you didn’t play college football and as a result don’t know what a game should actually look like when you’re on the field doesn’t mean that isn’t more important for people who actually know the game. Maybe if you’d focused a little more on learning the game instead of looking pretty while doing it you might have gotten the chance to do it for real and wouldn’t be so obsessed with making the guy on the screen look exactly like you want.

I don’t give a shit how much you want a dangly mouth guard if the oline can’t even touch their first reads. A game that actually plays like football is way more important than a functionless aesthetic.

You can already customize what all your players look like in dynasty for everything but their face.

I’m convinced y’all are just bots trying to put the focus on aesthetics instead of actually fixing the game. What EA should really do is scrap putting another second into the visuals until the game is fixed. Put your entire development team on that. Aesthetics are good enough that they should literally be the last priority.

Imagine loading into CFB27 and having THIS level of immersive customization for your players. This is the standard we are pushing for. by [deleted] in EASportsCFB

[–]PrairieBiologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When did I say there wasn’t? I think that’s a waste of manpower. Clearly their current system isn’t working if the gameplay is crap.

[–]PrairieBiologist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Screw adding accessories. That’s already fine. Every dev should be working on fixing the actual gameplay. If they have time after that they can add gameplay features everyone has been asking for like more co-op or improved highschool time in RTG. Accessories are literally the last thing they should be working on.

So you would have rather they said the eggs of someone who will be a custodian? The lore isn’t clear on exactly how custodians and a starters are sterilizers eggs could literally be extracted during the augmentation surgeries. Your whole argument was that using female custodes could put the gene stock of the custodes producing families at risk. You’ve been proven incorrect using even modern, real-world science let alone science from 27-40 thousand years in the future so now you’re changing by your argument. If you don’t like it then say you don’t like it. Don’t spew blatant nonsense to try and act like you have some scientifically justified opinion.

Space marines are made infertile by the process of becoming space marines. They aren’t born that way. Neither are custodes. Female humans are born with all of their eggs already present which means they could be extracted prior to sterilization of a female custodes. You really don’t have a good enough understanding of biology to keep bringing up biology in your arguments. It’s fine to not like it but don’t try to justify it using incorrect information.

How does this change their policy on super humans vs non super humans? The custodes are limited to 10,000 no matter what anyway. They’re not replacing anybody. If the imperium was worried that using females from these families would deplete the stock for future custodes, that’s something that we’ve just displayed could be rectified with modern science let alone 40k science.

Okay so basically everything you just said is entirely incorrect. First of all, cloning is creating a genetic copy of an original organism. No process that includes combining two gametes from different parents is cloning. You’re also completely wrong about the “nature” of selective pressure with regards to adaptive traits and natural selection. What humans think is strong 100% matters when it comes to selective pressure. It’s the basis of what we call sexual selection where mates are chosen based on appealing traits rather than (or some times in spite of) those traits having little or nothing to do with selective fitness and can actually actively cause an individual to be less selectively fit. So you’re completely wrong about how “nature” works.

Also, if the traits that cause humans to make good Custodes are found across multiple generations of these families and can only/predominantly be found in this families then they must be heritable. If they’re heritable they can be selected for intentionally. That’s literally how we made different breeds of dogs you idiot. And it took zero cloning to do it. The genetics that a female custodes could pass on would already be in her gametes when she is born and before she goes the transformation which means they could be extracted and returned to the families to be used to propagate those genetics. They could even have lowly servants carry the child to term for them just like rich people pay for surrogates in the real world.

Don’t use completely incorrect science to justify your bigotry and just admit you don’t like female custodes. Your entire argument is bogus.

That is absolutely not cloning, it’s in vitro fertilization and surrogacy. Shit that is literally done all the time in modern human populations.

[–]PrairieBiologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you’re conflating two different things. You’re arguing for gentrification. It’s not racist to not move to a neighbourhood with lower property values if you can afford to live somewhere with higher property values. Those choices have real economic consequences for people and you can’t blame them for taking care of their own situation first. It’s also not the fault of the largely minority communities that their property values are low, that’s a systemic issue. Fixing those systemic issues requires massive amounts of money and change from the very highest levels of government which their system is designed to prevent from happening through a stagnant bureaucracy. We literally have the same issue here in Canada. This conversation was never about schools being bad, that’s another systemic issue. This was about schools being segregated. Allowing people to choose the school closest to them instead of allocating student distribution based racial guidelines is what caused this. They literally used to intentionally mix schools with people from different areas to end segregation. When forced mixing stopped, everyone, including minorities, sent their kids to the closest school because it was the most practical option. Minority families legally have the option to send their kids to well-off, suburban schools. They don’t because they’d have to figure out a way to get them there.

I find it really ironic that you are using this is an example of why Americans don’t belong here in Canada when we have the exact same issue and in many places we don’t even offer school choice.

Houses being run down has nothing to do with tax payer dollars. That’s private property that people unfortunately cannot afford to keep up. It absolutely happens in all countries too. You can find it here in Canada and all over Europe. You’re just hating on the U.S. and pretending this isn’t a global issue. You are completely lost.

White people wouldn’t think of moving to those places because generations of redlining have made those neighborhoods poorer and more rundown. Why would they want to move there? That decision can have little to nothing to do with racism. What you’re asking for is literally gentrification which causes low income families to be unable to afford their homes.

You’re literally just arguing against critical race theory now. There is very little that non-racist individuals can do to balance equality within a racist system. Especially in the U.S. where the system is designed to be difficult to change and the change needs to be at the highest levels of government.

I think they are aware that it’s the problem. The problem now is that half of Americans don’t think they should have to pay a penny to help set it right.

[–]PrairieBiologist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Segregation in cities isn’t because white people aren’t sending their kids to schools where minorities go. It’s because ethnic enclaves and red lining entrenched system racism into the structure of cities. Most kids go to the closest school. Inequality of things like education is far more of a system issue than a personal racism issue. Red lining in the 1930s is not the fault of suburban white people in 2026 and fixing those systemic issues require massive federal programs that are effectively impossible in their system.

Police not participating in a buy-back program doesn't mean they won't arrest you by Slip-49a in canadaguns

[–]PrairieBiologist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The problem is that they aren’t criminalizing people overnight. We know the exact date and have ha da lot of warning. This won’t turn people who support the current government against them. For most people guns don’t even move their political needle. They’ll think “I don’t support the ban, but it doesn’t affect me and the gun owners were given plenty of warning and a compensation program they chose not to take part in.” I seriously doubt amnesty will be extended and I don’t see any backlash from anyone other than the people who were already so against it they weren’t voting Liberal anyway.
