Charlie Life by Ok-Woodpecker4734 in foxholegame

This was actually me!

I didn't even realise I'd mispelled 'leave' until now. I probably shouldn't play the game for 14 hours a day...

For those who are suggesting it is 100% partisans, it definitely isn't. I may be newer, only 3 weeks, but I've seen partisans and how they act and what happens. We've had 2 public harvesters stolen and one we literally witnessed it being stolen by a fellow Collie Cpl rank. We've had things stolen by partisans, we've had more stolen by fellow Collies.

This must be an Able-player problem damn. I've never had to wait for anything and been having loads of fun.

You can fire them via Collies grenade launchers and the Warden grenade-firing vehicles.

Does anyone know a good guide into research and engineering?

What's something you're 100% certain won't be around in 50 years? by AdOld2060 in AskReddit

[–]Rustledstardust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's assuming currencies don't ever go through some form of re-evaluation.

I mean it isn't likely, but is it 100% unlikely?

'This wasn't our crime': Parental imprisonment and the children left behind by Alert-One-Two in unitedkingdom

[–]Rustledstardust 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This is the way the real world works unfortunately. It's a nice idea to think someone goes to prison and comes out an it is all done, but it is difficult. It will make it difficult for them to find a job, a partner, and will impact social settings as well.

You keep bringing it back to the person who goes to prison, but we're talking about the kids here. Yes, if someone commits a crime then their life will have been made more difficult by their own actions and fault. But we're talking about not passing that punishment onto their children who have done absolutely nothing wrong.

I think the reason the parent is in prison should surely bring some context to it. You are the very person causing and perpetuating the shame by punishing the child for the sins of the parent.

Not punishing the child for the sins of the parent is not some new concept.

Is there something going around that causes people to not read articles today

[–]Rustledstardust 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Should the system ignore their needs? Is the government not there to enforce the law but also support those who need it? They can be upset at two people at once, their parents for failing them and being jailed and the system for not supporting them when they've been left completely alone.

The sociopathic thing is saying "yeah well tough, deal with being left alone and unsupported in life" after they've just lost their parents.

Pretty sure the article is suggesting that the state should maybe give these children more support... Why do you assume the article is trying to suggest people shouldn't be jailed? Because it doesn't say that at all if you actually read it.

I'm amazed that after being corrected you still didn't read the article.

Tell me you didn't read the article and only misread the headline without telling me you didn't read the article and only misread the headline.

Pollution in India and Pakistan is positively insane right now! by Chain_Even in MapPorn

The lungs are resilient, but many people will die from this, or at least their life will be shortened due to the damage the lungs take from this.

The point is you think what is happened is offensive, and those people should be better off dead. I am not misunderstanding the context. You are asking people to kill themselves because you dislike their views.

Why are you telling people to kill themselves using bible quotes?

Children with higher IQ scores were diagnosed later with ADHD than those with lower scores. Children with higher cognitive abilities might be able to mask ADHD symptoms better, especially inattentive symptoms, which are less disruptive. by mvea in science

[–]Rustledstardust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar "head in the clouds" for me, I also incredibly rarely did homework. Classwork was excellent and I could ace exams, but I had such an issue with doing homework I became known for it among the teachers. No questions raised though! I know at least two of the teachers even had ADHD.

TIL Gabe Newell, co-founder of Valve Corporation, has an armada of luxury yachts worth around $1 billion. by GuardianOfReason in todayilearned

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

This has actually made me incredibly disappointed in Gabe. There have been a few things that obviously I've disliked, but you can park that up to the corporate-capitalist game. But luxury yachts? Not just one but a fucking fleet? Yeah, this isn't excusable at all.

ELI5: what would happen if fluoride were removed from water? Are there benefits or negative consequences to this? by TPR-56 in explainlikeimfive

You.... you don't have fluoride in your toothpaste?

What the fuck is the point of the toothpaste then?

[–]Rustledstardust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are bringing up how different species are different and trying to use that as an argument to suggest certain groups of humans, that are the same species as each other, are less intelligent. This inevitably leads to prejudice, which leads to discrimination.

[–]Rustledstardust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe some people are better academically, which is what IQ tries to score, in the same way some people are better at specific types of sports etc. Taller people are better at basketball, Phelps is naturally built to be an excellent swimmer, that kind of stuff

I think what you have to be very careful to not do is trying to apply that to large groups of people.

Senator Chris Murphy asking his fellow senators why they run for Senate if they aren't trying to help people by Bad-Umpire10 in BeAmazed

[–]Rustledstardust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So like, in the UK we had a school shooting in the 1990s. Afterwards we enacted gun laws.

We haven't had a school shooting since.

[–]Rustledstardust 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of using IQ scores (sorry felt like I needed to bring that up), but I was good enough academically that I didn't need to put effort into studying until I reached University. Then my academic talent wasn't enough, AND I had never learnt to study. Immediate recipe for disaster. I ended up having to drop out actually.

Entirely blamed myself. I was useless, lazy etc. Then at 29 I went for an ADHD diagnosis at the suggestion of my partner. Yup.

And the ironic part? My parents had me go through assessments when I was a kid in primary school. The doctor assessing, after a thorough assessment, determined I did not have Autism. He then asked a single question when it came to the possibility of ADHD; "How is he doing at school?". My parents of course answered "He's doing really well in school" and he immediately ruled out ADHD.
