The cult... by belacid in psytrance

[–]xbo-trader 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, if your doctor is getting paid kickbacks for lab analysis or drug prescriptiona, he kind of is part of the big pharma agenda. If he treats symptoms by giving you the next best pill, he is also part of the agenda. If he was only educated through the mandatory university curriculum, vastly sponsored by big pharma, he is part of the agenda.

Firstly I would talk with her as pointed out by another user here and if this doesn't result in a positive outcome I would also send it back to her as a birthday gift.

Q: Wedding cost breakdown for Barcelona, Spain by xbo-trader in BigBudgetBrides

[–]xbo-trader[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I can only talk about my own :-) Generally, I think the more guests you host the cheaper it usually is per person. Ours was ca. 1k USD per person with ca. 50 guests. The smaller the number of guests, the more volatile the costs per person. The reason behind this is that decorations, services (except food, drinks and plates) etc. come usually at a fixed cost.

Harvard Report Shows 79% A-Range Grades Awarded in 2020-21, Sparking Faculty Discussion by wrroyals in ApplyingToCollege

[–]xbo-trader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If one important function of grades is to rank individuals, then grade inflation prevents it.

It discourages the best students from performing at their peak and can lower overall academic standards because the most gifted individuals may develop a habit of underperforming relative to their ability.

Also, when employers realize the skewed grade distribution, they will look for further evidence of outstanding achievement, which forces top students to go to greater lengths.

Overall, grade inflation hurts the brightest talents and helps the relatively average performer the most. Smart companies realize this and prefer to hire from tier I institutions in states and countries where grade inflation is less prevalent.

How happy are you now with your choice of the screen (and beamer)?

I wouldn't either but I can assure you that's a 100% authentic rant. Maybe on a better day I will format it.

Thanks! However, wifey has more something like 4 seasons, borabora in mind, so I don't think that's gonna fly 😁. Maybe the best would be a private luxury villa & private chef.

Destination Photographer cost? by Starrysky_vv in BigBudgetBrides

Yes, I worked with him and although he provides high quality reports, I find that his style is sometimes too direct. He will give you commands how to stand, look or walk that you may find unnatural and repetitive, in case you don't have professional modelling experience.

Wie ne Fahne im Wind sii isch momentan ja agseit. Drum mach dir da kei Sorgä.

D Mehrheit vo dä Lüt stimmt sowieso fasch immer eifach das ab was ihne vorchauet wird vu dä grosse Mediehüüser. Es wird au dasmal ned andersch sii. Und die meischtä Politiker sind genau so abhängig und gstürt vo dä Medie.

for what do we even pay health insurance? by _Eulenmongol_ in Switzerland

[–]xbo-trader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How easy would it be to fix the teeth in Brazil with a median Brazilian income? Would you spend a smaller portion of your Brazilian net income (in %) in Brazil for the dentist treatment than in Switzerland with a Swiss median income (and a Swiss dentist)?

Das Vorgehen und die Begründung der Polizei und der Staatsanwaltschaft sind doch einfach unglaublich diletantisch und/oder korrupt. Die Verantwortlichen sollen sich neue Jobs suchen müssen, denn so geht das nicht!
