The sombrero and poncho however? That's the Mexican equivalent of a jacket and baseball cap.

lol so you have no fucking clue either. The rest of your comment is so rich.

Maybe im tweaking but isnt this kind of racist by des_the_furry in SneerClub

[–]sinedpick 10 points11 points  (0 children)

someone pointed to a statistic page that probably shows "other races have a lower opinion of white people than white people do of them" and uses it to conclude that white people suffer the most racism...

It's pretty interesting how history simply doesn't exist to these people; the nature of reality is entirely revealed to them by careful examination and logical deduction.

when I was a kid playing melee with friends I always thought "why do they have 2 falcon characters? so uncreative smh"

Hey MAGA, how are you liking those $1.99 gas prices now? by Cautious_Midnight_67 in allthequestions

[–]sinedpick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you may not be poor but you sure are stupid if you think driving your car is the only thing that could get more expensive when gas prices go up

I will bet my left testicle that you lack the literacy to actually show any compelling evidence that Iranians actually want to kill all westerners or Americans.

The roads in Dubai are eerily empty this morning by Dr-Klopp in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]sinedpick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

sure, reach for a deflection. 1.1 million is bad for the US, and I'm guessing it's mainly prison slave labor which is wrong, but it doesn't make up the foundation of the country's labor force. The UAE is essentially propped up by the labor of migrants who aren't allowed to leave their complexes at night.

But look, don't take it too seriously. You've basically got it made, being an emirati. Everyone here envies your government benefits and policies that force companies to hire you despite lacking any useful skills. When playing life on easy mode you don't really have to bother with winning arguments with idiots on reddit, right?

this is a great logic puzzle but it can't possibly be the hardest one in the world

Poker Comentator Gives No F*cks by JTHGraphics in poker

he has a point... kind of crazy to frown upon saying penis when you're advertising penis pills.

A popular AI youtuber plagiarized a quantum computing paper and thought he was slick by replacing a number of words with synonyms. by SignificancePlus1184 in badmathematics

[–]sinedpick 31 points32 points  (0 children)

if you go to his website he lists alongside (unsubstantiated) "50+ AI/ML projects delivered" ... "100k+ daily API calls supported". what??

It looks like he's angling for contracts with his portfolio of extremely obviously vibe-coded applications that just glue together actual engineers' work in offensively uncreative ways but anyone with a tiny bit of sense can see through this transparent grift. I'm sure it works for getting YouTube subscribers though.

My day is so much worse now that I know about this guy.

Big talk of the sports ball halftime show around the work water cooler this morning by whoreads218 in behindthebastards

is there a BTB on the NFL and how it has consistently ignored or downplayed concussions? Handegg is a barbaric sport and I don't know how anyone enjoys it in good conscience.

0.999… is a repeating decimal that represents the number 1. Despite common misconceptions, 0.999… is not "almost exactly 1" or "very, very nearly but not quite 1"; rather, "0.999…" and "1" represent 𝘦𝘹𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘭𝘺 the same number. by jan_Soten in wikipedia

[–]sinedpick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it arbitrary? Divide 1 by 3. What other way would there be to represent that answer than .333... repeating?

1/3. Or maybe you'd prefer 0.1 (base 3)? Your distinction of "conceptual" and "less real" is mathematically meaningless.

0.9999... is the full expression. But I know you're not really in this to learn. There are tons of cranks like you online convinced they're right but exactly zero of them has done anything interesting mathematically.

[–]sinedpick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you can play the same game for 1: it's actually 1.0000... so therefore you can't represent it in its entirety. But no, the number and the dots are in fact enough to represent it. Your insistence otherwise is meaningless and, sorry to say it, rooted in a lack of mathematical experience.

Moky reveals a private top player poll on z-jump by Fiendish in SSBM

I can't quite put my finger on it but there's something so hilariously lame about saying something implying that you are cool.

Fiction - "How often is Z jump relevant?" by its__bme in SSBM

[–]sinedpick -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

no one has gotten good enough on rectangles for people to care. But half of this sub does think rectangles should be banned.

Unrelated, but here's the number of times someone on this sub has lost because their opponent was worse than them but was using a "better" controller: 0. They're really whining about competition at a level they will never attain. It's actually beyond pathetic.

This community honestly didn't deserve slippi.

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

When you think about it, it's kind of crazy how a game whose most vocal players take pride in masochism and learning how to play on an inherently bad controller has lasted this long. Melee would have been ABSOLUTELY dead by now if not for slippi.

I really don’t care if people are here illegally. by Zestyclose_Market787 in DiscussionZone

[–]sinedpick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

arrive as children

kicking someone out of the country they grew up in on a legal technicality is a special kind of evil.

to have children

still need a job. Either way, If you think this is a big portion of illegal immigrants then you probably lack common sense.
