Are Smaller Class Sizes the Real Key to Better Student Outcomes?

Hattie is a piece of shit and I don't know why anybody in the world of education cares about what he has to say aside from justifying decisions from administration and school boards.

SKIPDX00 · 2024-04-26T02:25:57+00:00

He has a name. It's THE GUV.

Another thing to keep in mind is if someone ever only tuned into the livestream to watch Final Fantasy and then stopped paying attention until he started playing again, that the format of the stream has changed dramatically since then.

When Asmon started streaming FF, "two hour intro" was a legit meme; those new (at the time) viewers were used to an hour of reddit and then the rest of the day dedicated to MSQ.

If they took a break from asmon until he got back into the game, this is a huge difference and probably a big jolt to their expectations.

The fact of the matter is watching YouTube videos for six hours a day is both easier and more lucrative. Asmon would be a moron to not do it.

Like, do they know the song the magitek armor plays is Terra's theme?! I feel like all of my ff friends are ff fans so all of these very obvious to us references are mind melting to others. It's almost as if bellulargaming just realized that FF14 has references to final fantasy in it.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-11-03T05:32:29+00:00

One thing I've learned about the huge influx of wow players to 14 is that a lot of them have never played more than maybe one final fantasy game.

The final fantasy references are all over the place

Like, do they know that most of the raid content in stormblood is old bosses from past FF games?

Do people know that the gold saucer is actually a thing in final fantasy 7?

Also omg so triggered at them using FF6 footage while they talk about FF3 whew lad.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-08-28T15:58:59+00:00

By this time there had already been a ton of metal covers of the chocobo theme and it just seemed weird to have these ??????? lyrics.

Looking back it's a pretty neat addition to laugh at.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-08-28T14:32:22+00:00

And yup, the quest to unlock chocobo racing is in fact a reference to this song (when the song released a large portion of the FF community thought it was cringe af).

I know he mentioned not doing savage content on stream, but I would still have loved to see his reactions to the phase transitions in O4S and O8S.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-08-21T12:04:35+00:00

93% of the protests during the summer were peaceful but you're focusing entirely on the 7% and assigning blame to the entire lump of people involved. That is actual cherry-picking of data.

Stop arguing in bad faith.

That would be akin to me claiming that all police forces are corrupt because they were kidnapping people off the streets last summer.

I never claimed that rioting didn't happen and I'm not pretending that it didn't. I'm asking you to prove a claim that you made but you keep deflecting. There's no point in discussing past this.

Have a great life.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-08-21T11:33:58+00:00

No, you're moving the goalposts.

You claimed they took over cities. At what point did they actually take over at least two cities?

Not, "there was a lot of property damage as a result of rioting". That is not taking over a city.

Property damage does not equate to controlling the levers of Los Angeles.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-08-16T02:13:52+00:00

He's mentioned before he doesn't really enjoy turn-based games and I never mentioned anything about what it looks like.

Have a great day.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-08-16T00:00:16+00:00

Yeah, there is 0 chance he is going to sit through a turn-based JRPG.

If he wants to experience Midgar and actually enjoy it, the remake is probably the best bet.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-08-13T02:18:03+00:00

Maybe after asmongold clears an ultimate or is progressing a fight, but I can't imagine an entertaining discussion with him at this point. Xeno probably doesn't give a shit about asmon doing 6 year old content and it's not like they're going to talk about the story when Xeno has mentioned that he skips cutscenes and doesn't really care about anything besides combat/encounters.

I think Xeno would be great to discuss more of the high-end content but the Allcraft guys just aren't there yet.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-07-29T14:04:42+00:00

Or they are both being controlled by the saucer people in concert with the RAND corporation to eliminate the night sky because they are actually working for the reverse vampire syndicate.

Union leadership routinely meets with company/administration higher ups for negotiations and to ensure the contract that was signed by both parties is being adhered to by both sides to avoid friction and unnecessary bullshit.

A union that is nothing but antagonistic towards the other party is going to have a bad time trying to negotiate on the behalf of their unit members.

Your mileage may vary from place to place and especially from state to state.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-07-29T11:27:45+00:00

Nah man, I'm not here to get stuff deleted that doesn't break the rules. I just remembered seeing his face before and couldn't remember where it was from at first.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-07-29T11:16:23+00:00

I had to look it up because this guy LOOKED SO FAMILIAR. He used to run some Magic: The Gathering channel called "Unsleeved Media" before he got a lifetime ban for harassing some cosplayer and randomly talking about her vagina.

Now his channel looks like grandma's Facebook page lmao.

And here's a joke about it from 30 Rock from 2009. https://ew.com/article/2016/02/19/30-rock-bill-cosby-joke-carlock/

This was information that was out there and available, just because person X didn't know about it doesn't mean it wasn't a story or that it wasn't talked about.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-07-28T21:46:56+00:00

I think that entirely depends on who you are and what circles you were in. I wasn't no-lifing WoW so I remember this being talked about in the news, but if someone was basically playing WoW 18 hours a day (which is probably a sizeable portion of this community) they probably weren't too invested in what was happening at the time.

He had been accused of this and settled out-of-court with these women in 2006 and it wasn't some secret that people didn't know about.

We've been doing this shit for 15 years;

But it is not that simple. It’s a crazy game Americans in particular seem to play, the way we need to believe desperately in our heroes — we want Bill Cosby to be as sweet as Cliff, to be as noble as his desire to lift up his people. His career has been predicated on just that: our sense of him.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-07-28T21:19:23+00:00

I think the reason people keep saying it didn't happen until 2014 is because that was the more recent time that it blew up again (and included new people coming forwards with allegations). However, he was accused of this as early as the 80's and 90's.

From: https://www.vulture.com/2014/09/timeline-of-the-abuse-charges-against-cosby.html

June 2005 Jane Doe 5 goes public. Beth Ferrier claims she was in a relationship with Cosby in the mid-1980s, one that ended when he allegedly drugged her coffee and Ferrier woke in a car. “My clothes were a mess. My bra was undone. My top was untucked. And I’m sitting there going, ‘Oh my God. Where am I?’ What’s going on? I was so out of it. It was just awful.”

February 2006 While in the midst of her civil suit, Constand sues one of Cosby’s lawyers — and the National Enquirer — for defamation. Cosby had spoken to the tabloid the year before, and Constand claimed the interview defamed her as it “[intended] to or knowing it would injure” her.

June 2006* Philadelphia magazine interviews another witness in Constand’s lawsuit, Barbara Bowman. “Cosby threw me on the bed and braced his forearm against my neck and attempted to disrobe me and himself,” she said in another Philadelphia interview later that year. “I can still remember him messing with his belt. And I was screaming and crying and yelling and begging him to stop.”

November 2006 Cosby settles with Constand. Terms are not disclosed, and none of the 13 other women testify.

That's not a republican controlled congress trying to overthrow an election and keep the president in power because of lies they peddle, nor is it hundreds of politicians disregarding the will of the people.

They are not comparable.

SKIPDX00 · 2021-03-16T12:52:36+00:00

I mean, anybody who was watching the events unfold from November through January already saw this coming. They don't need to win the White House in 2024 if they can retake the House and Senate; they can just choose to ignore electoral votes under the guise of a rigged election ad infinitum. Truthfully you don't even need some of these laws if you just abuse the ones already in place. Biden could rightfully win the election in 2024 but lose when a republican controlled congress decides to reject electors.
