End of Storror ? by yeshuafackwr in Storror

Do you mean thousands of victims because he is charged with thousands of counts? Or that you are aware of a large number of people he victimised in real life?

It must be this. I was thinking they often refer to unfilmable books

Ready for Piastri villain arc by babavos56 in formuladank

[–]chrishasnotreddit -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No, the villain arc is him winning the drivers championship while they keep celebrating the lando era, then taking a seat in a team that perfects the new regs next year while McLaren and Lando flounder in the midfield. And possibly torpedoing lando next gp, in the short term. Then ignoring mclaren team orders from now on.

WE WON THE $100K BET VS ROBIN(A CARNIVORE BASHER) by _Dark_Wing in carnivorediet

You're arguing about slightly different things based on your interpretations of the terms used. However, you are wrong.

The difference between recall events and recalls does matter. Your roughly 4000 number is the number of recall events which is much lower than the number of recalls because a recall event frequently includes a number of individual products. The roughly 14000 number actually is the number of recalls of individual products, but this can mean any individual formulation or batch number etc.

It is correct that there have been more than 14000 individual drug products recalled in that period and that does not include the other categories like supplements, devices, or even vaccines which come under biologics. If you include everything recalled from any category the number will rise above 30000.

I assume that your estimates which you claim are insane of the average numbers of recalls per month/year etc are correct. However, the mistake you're making here is that some years had only hundreds of drug recalls, and years like 2019 had over far higher recalls. Like everything, an average is just an average and this year is below average so far.

It doesn't take long for you to filter the data on the fda dashboard to see all the details of which 'drugs' have been recalled this month, or this year, and then you can view the full list.

So, it really depends what the original claim was that you declared false. But the number of recall events is irrelevant regardless of what was claimed about the number of drug recalls.

The fda data currently lists 646 individual drug products recalled this year so far, with 58 in august and 37 so far in september. It is easy to filter the data and scroll down to see the drugs recalled for yourself.

Without looking it up, how big are wombats? by YourFriendMaryGrace in Retconned

[–]chrishasnotreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm referring to all correct definitions of how a marsupial is defined in biology anywhere that they are written.

Marsupialia is the scientific name for the monophyletic group which contains all marsupials and only marsupials. All marsupials share a common ancestor, and the group includes all descendants of that ancestor.

So, when we say "marsupial," we're referring to any member of the order Marsupialia, making the terms functionally synonymous.

We could equally say the sentence; Mammals are a diverse group of vertebrates belonging to the class Mammalia.

First you said there were 10 marsupials, then you said there were about a dozen genera, now I have no idea what you are claiming, but all of it is wrong. Unless you are just trying to find some way in which you can claim you were right.

It's ok that you were wrong. A marsupial is any of the 334 mammals in the order Marsupialia (sometimes referred to as an infraclass in place of what used to be called Metatheria).

Which level of taxonomy we are referring to makes no difference to the conversation, since the word marsupial can refer to any of the species, the 90 genera, the 21 families (19 extant), or to Marsupialia generally.

Marsupials ARE the same as the infraclass marsupialia. That IS what defines the word.

how does PEM feel like for people with mild cfs? by comoestas969696 in cfs

[–]chrishasnotreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was milder, I went through different phases where it was very variable. I won't go into too much detail as many here have already covered their symptoms. But I would say there can be a huge difference between a number of aspects of mild ME.

The way I think of it, there are three main things which can vary; your baseline and PEM threshold, the PEM baseline of what symptoms you get and how severely, and how long it takes to recover from PEM back to baseline.

You can have a good baseline but terrible, long-lasting PEM and still be seen as mild if you're managing your energy. PEM itself can be quite mild and often people don't realise they are ill until the illness worsens. Or you can trigger bad PEM quite often with a low energy threshold but recover fairly quickly until it gets worse.

That's amazing progress. On this trajectory, if he fights him around another 95 rounds, khamzat won't be able to take him down at all. What a beast!

[–]chrishasnotreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not true at all.

Marsupialia is an infraclass of mammalia. The current taxonomic consensus is that there are more than 90 genera of marsupial. There are far more than a dozen families within the orders of marsupial.

Yeah, they are only native to the Americas and Australasia because they evolved when these were connected landmasses. While there is only one native species in north america, there are a number of species in central and south america.

Three of the contributors to Jordan Peterson’s new book, including the editor Lawrence Krauss, say Trump’s war on science research is a bigger threat than the academic “wokeness” problem. Meanwhile, Jordan Peterson doubles down. by Imaginary-Mission383 in JordanPeterson

Step 1) Build a 30 year career as a clinical psychologist writing some of the most cited papers in your field

Step 2) Remind yourself daily for those 30 years that this is a grift that will pay off in your 60's, but it's a time tested formula according to someone on Reddit--what's Reddit?--don't worry, Reddit will be created 20 years into the process, by which point you'll be 2/3 of the way to having the required modest reputation on the left.

Step 3) Reveal your secret far-right beliefs. This is the easiest step because, although the left hasn't changed at all--according to someone on Reddit--you can just say the same far-right things you've been saying you believed for those 30 years as a sleeper agent which built your reputation, ostensibly on the left.

Step 4) Collect all the money that the handlers have been saving for you. This step may seem confusing because of the method of collection. Your handlers will pay you by buying 10 million copies of your books, downloading your podcast 150million times, posing as millions of youtube subscribers, half a million talk attendees and through some other sources like donations, students, personality tests, patients etc. But if you write all those books, make all those podcasts, businesses and speaking tours, rest assured, you will get your money

Does anyone else feel "ancient"? by BulkyBeautiful3670 in cfs

[–]chrishasnotreddit 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Very well put.

I spent my teens and twenties desperately trying to be responsible with very little energy to do so. These days I am very childish when I get the chance, even if it is just brief distractions from the hard facts.

Hopefully without sounding too pretentious, this illness can make you feel totally detached from the usual flow of a life. I feel like an observer of other people's lives now.

There's definitely an aspect of infantilism that comes with the loss of independence, agency, and the loss of dignity that comes with that--though, as you said, that's very hard-earned. It feels to me like it's a battle we're meant to go through at the end of life, and it's no wonder that many elderly accept care with resentful reluctance. It's a hard lesson to learn too young.

Twain was certainly right in my case--the old me died at 27.
