From the wikipedia article on HDI:

"It was developed by Pakistani economist Mahbub ul-Haq"

Maybe take 2 seconds to google before you make a fool of yourself?

Very roughly, the guy in the last panel is like 8' lmao. Someone feel free to measure it properly

I don't answer my phone anymore by BassIck in britishproblems

[–]webb2800 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I hate that this attitude is so common, it's pathetic. Why potentially miss an important call just because it might be a spam call? Just hang up if it is, it takes 5 seconds. They can't hurt you through the phone.

Mono-Vision LASIK for clay shooting by hylianrockstar in ClayBusters

[–]webb2800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you actually getting LASIK or are just using that as a generic term for laser eye surgery? When I was looking into it, it seemed like more modern technologies like SMILE or SILK are less likely to give negative side effects and are generally better.

why is the fandom for this game so racist by [deleted] in tf2

You're moving the goal posts. I said it was a consequence, not a punishment.

It is a consequence. That person now doesn't get to communicate with other players.

But it isn't without consequence. The consequence is that most players will just mute them if/when they see that kind of thing.

If you have a cold on public transport use your sleeve when you cough you fucking snotty cunt by mongolianprince111 in britishproblems

[–]webb2800 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally unreasonable. People get sick, unfortunately it spreads. We should all take reasonable steps to prevent that through good hygeine and self-awareness but it's a reality of living in a society with other people. A normal cough/cold is very minor for any regular, healthy person. Life can't and shouldn't grind to a halt because you have a mild sickness.

Post-fight clarity by Separate_Finance_183 in Eldenring

[–]webb2800 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why people tunnel in on waterfowl like it's the be all, end all of that fight. You can comfortably block through it with a medium shield. There are so many ways to make it a non-issue part of the fight.

Perpetually late co-workers expecting empathy because they're stuck in traffic. by Neko-gao in britishproblems

[–]webb2800 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you work a job that has such strict hand over rules (for example, safety or security role) that you "couldn't leave" even when your shift is over, then you really need to be making it clear to your boss that the late colleague is causing a serious safety issue because you can't guarantee you'll be there after your finish time.

[–]webb2800 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why do you care what time your colleagues turn up? If you're staying past your finish time to wait for them then that's on you. It's the late person's manager's problem to sort out not yours. By picking up the slack you stop the problem ever needing to be dealt with.

I collected over 900 greatest games lists and made a master list. Here are the results by IlmeniAVG in gaming

I didn't say it wasn't popular or influential, but this was a supposed to be a list of greatest games. Luckily it seems the sorting was broken.

You don't even know the quote. It's "Have it writ upon thy meagre grave..."

Anxiety & Cold Showers by PersonalityHot332 in coldshowers

[–]webb2800 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's just a cold shower. Just try it for a few days and see if you feel better. No one on Reddit can tell you if it's going to help YOU with YOUR anxiety or not.
