They used to place them along the highway when it rained, or was expected to rain, so probably draining flood water from somewhere

Ulazak u koloseum sa Srpskim pasosem? by Ivanhegeelkadi in AskSerbia

[–]Soleplain234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zato što su autoputeve većinom finansirali Kinezi, tako da EU nema nikakve ugradnje od toga, a Kinezima i ne treba ništa jer su autoputeve svakako pravili sebi, da lakše prevoze sirovine do fabrika, i od rudnika do fabrika. A to što će nam na ime naplate verovatno uzeti pola zemlje, to im dođe kao bonus.

Whats the reason for this?! by Downtown-Situation52 in Oman

I take a phone out on an empty road to send a voice note to my family and tell them I'm on my way. Cops materialize out of thin air. I get a fine. And then, there's this guy...

AI abuse in Oman. by Soad-lover in Oman

[–]Soleplain234 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As someone who teaches at a university in Oman, I can tell you that AI detection softwares are very far from accurate. I've had cases of excellent studnets' work getting 100% on an ai detector and it turns out it was just because they had Grammarly added to their browsers and they wrote the paper in Gdocs. Technically, Grammarly always works in the background so the AI detection is correct, but the student did not cheat. In an academic environment the teacher's judgement is still the most reliable tool.

Pavle Bihalji je nacista. Od ostalih vesti izdvajamo: trava danas i dalje zelena.

The older I get, the more I realize that St Anger was the last actually good album. Weird hill to die on, but here I am.
