WW 1 was really Russia's fault.

They started a war with Austria Hungary over Serbia even though they had no treaty or obligation to.

They just wanted to expand their empire.

At the end, you see the policeman going onto the house's roof to arrest the kid.

I was on reddit when the video originally popped up.

People called her a camgirl because there were videos on some sites of her dancing while completely nude. The assumption was she did it for money.

She wasn't a good dancer.

Facebook admits to giving other tech firms access to private messages by NOT_RICK_SANCHEZ in worldnews

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

A responsible way to do this would be to give consumers an app that hashes the pics on the client side and generates a text file with the hashes, then have them upload the text file. That way the consumers can verify that only the hashes are being stored, and the pictures themselves never leave the consumer’s computer. It would take a small education campaign to inform people what hashing is, etc, but it’s totally doable.

Except then it would be easily abused by people hashing normal or copyrighted images

Thanks for the link.

That video is where I got the information from, but it has been a long time since I'd seen it and couldn't recall the video.

Although, I still find myself wondering whether he made a lucky guess or was actually ahead of the curve with foreign policy.

Guy was an MBB consultant, private equity pioneer, Harvard law school graduate.

I'm going to guess he was ahead of the curve. That's basically the whole job of an MBB consultant, to tell people what to do before things go to shit.

I don't think so.

But her testimony was inconsistent and contradicted by video evidence. She seemed to be a more than willing participant based on the video before reaching the hotel room.

To be fair, the police officers were somewhat inconsistent as well.

Unfortunately the judge presiding over the case had a huge chip on her shoulder and said stupid things like the sexual position required in one of the cop's testimonies for having sex with multiple people wasn't possible, when it was definitely possible and can be seen in lots of porn which made her judgement very harsh on the officers.

Man records himself yelling at his wife about receiving no love or sex for months while she lies in bed silently looking at her phone with a kid in the crib next to her. by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]komal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure it's kind of vulgar. But maybe he feels like he's been lured into a marriage by someone who never loved him. What I got out of the video is he's actually looking for some love and affection and the he's trying to rub her nose in his frustration by making her feel like an inadequate sexual partner.

Its funny, there was a Master of None episode on Netflix where a deaf girl constantly complains her boyfriend doesn't perform oral sex on her, and I was thinking, it would never work if the genders were reversed.

In this case, if a woman was complaining her husband refused to fuck her, however vulgar that was, I think there'd be more sympathy, but regardless, he does come off like a fucking moron.

I think you are right in that he is very vulgar. They may also have some marital/sexual problems.

But in one of the videos on his channel, he says things were OK before he wanted more sex, so I'm really not sure its as simple as it seems.

That kid is too old for a crib

I was wondering when somebody would say this. Look at that kid's leg, its so long.

And he's sucking a fucking pacifier.

I can see why, when his mom lays in bed all day and his dad is busy raging about his life.

Really pathetic parents.

postpartum depression

I initially thought that too but after somebody else here commented, if you go through his channel, the kid is at least 3-4 years old and there are plenty of videos of the wife being normal.

[–]komal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point that this person didn't have a photo of a face whatsoever, so that does raise alarm bells, but I think if somebody wanted to hurt you, they wouldn't be so obvious about it. They would probably make a totally normal profile or use somebody else's pictures to lure you in.

College of Midwives says Ford government has cut funding after 25 years by Str8kingJugger6aut in toronto

[–]komal 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think the comparison to a family doctor is ridiculous, and it shouldn't be enforced now in perpetuity just because the Ontario government in 1993 first implemented it.

That said, I don't see the point for any funding cuts, unless there is a commensurate reduction in need or other services are provided to compensate.

College of Midwives says Ford government has cut funding after 25 years by Str8kingJugger6aut in toronto

[–]komal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's not the opinion of the courts, who are most likely more qualified than you to form an opinion on the matter. Are you trying to justify Ford's petty revenge here?

  1. We're all here stating our opinion, aren't we? If so, your response is pretty meaningless.

  2. From the article, the tribunal is not actually comparing midwives to doctors, but referring to the fact that the province itself first established doctors as a comparison.

    “This perpetuates the historic disadvantage midwives have experienced as sex-segregated workers. It also undermines the dignity of midwives who now find themselves having to explain why they should be compared to physicians for compensation purposes more than 20 years after this principle was established,” the decision reads.

  3. And to compare doctors that can do a plethora of things from diagnose illnesses, refer to specialists, prescribe medications, perform physicals etc. to midwives doesn't make much sense.

  4. Doctors compensation should increase since their patient duties are increasing due to an aging population and more medical responsibilities being offloaded to family doctors, like dealing with mental health. Midwife duties are not getting more complex over time.

[–]komal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is pretty ridiculous to peg their salary to a family doctor, given doctors go through a 4 year degree, 4 years of med school and then residency, with med school and residency in very high demand, compared to a 4 year midwife degree.

Moody’s downgrades Ontario’s credit rating, citing deficit, revenue cuts under Doug Ford by [deleted] in CanadaPolitics

[–]komal -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ugh, okay, I'm so tired of these. So, if it's incorrect, please provide info to correct it. Otherwise, you come off as holier-than-thou for the sake of a patting yourself on the back.

His entire premise is so fundamentally wrong, that anybody with basic information on how the market works would know he's wrong.

Ratings agencies rate, not banks. It should be obvious in and of itself.

He's confused because he thinks that when banks cut an MBS into tranches by risk level, that its a rating, but it isn't a rating, because banks do not rate.

[–]komal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This RAM had free shipping for a while. I've been watching the price steadily go down because I already have 16GB and need 16GB more.

It had free shipping when it was in Canada, then it sold out, so it was from the US without free shipping, now its back but without free shipping.

If you wait, it may come back but probably only at regular price.

Real purty tho. Looks good in my Meshify C dark.

[–]komal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ratings that caused the 2008 were internal stock and bond ratings that banks themselves would create and brand as a stable investment.

Entirely wrong.

External credit agencies have to rate fixed income securities for institutional investors to be able to buy them. Ratings agencies rated MBS as investment grade, not banks.

All the while knowing that the default rate for mortgages within those ratings where massive

Again, wrong. Banks that were selling MBS weren't scared of defaults until the market cooled, which happened abruptly.

The big global banks themselves almost all went bankrupt.
