To save the parents the embarrassment of having to explain something they don’t understand.
Don’t get me wrong, art can be just as awkward to explain but it is socially acceptable to chalk things you don’t understand to the artist’s creative whim
Depends on how you define “financial literacy”? I think what you point at is pretty basic and obvious, and for that matter I’d say yes of course that is important but I don’t know if it qualifies as “literacy” to me.
Now, information on taxes, how investing works, how money flows, and economic/financial jargon yes I would say that is financial literacy and it matters a lot and I believe I would be slightly better positioned if I knew better.
You need money to act with a certain amount of freedom and intention in our current society . You make a point that practically every person needs money to live, but the comic’s point is that being human is beyond economic or utilitarian value
How’s the chicken breast, good? Oh, bit dry maybe?
Sounds great, I always thought NY had to up their game a little bit. I’m sure all those trees shed a lot of leaves in autumn too, what a nuisance
Another one here. I figured this would include more than just millennials?
Unpopular opinion indeed but not outrageous since it’s your home, congratulations have my upvote and both my approval and disapproval
You’re gonna have to update your username, it’s very confusing now
I like how this is happening in a completely urban environment. Imagine the situation a few minutes later from the perspective of the building residents or just anyone on the street below the web
Yeah same taste as leeches and ticks unfortunately
Estas hablando de un app u otro sitio no relacionado a Lemmy? Puede ser, no sé qué decir ya que pocas veces me da esta necesidad. Por lo general escribo en papel y no necesito compartirlo con nadie; y cuando necesito compartirlo, bueno, precisamente busco una platatforma social. Me parece que alguna vez me descargué en alguna comunidad Lemmy.
En mi opinion me parece que un sitio dedicado especificamente a esto seria medio redundante, como ya explique, pero esto es solamente mi opinion. Tal vez te llegan mensajes de mucha gente que opina diferente. Y a final de cuentas no te prives de hacer algo que te interesa, tampoco.
Fortunately last time I saw my doctor I saw her type everything herself as I spoke.
There are tons of communities for questions, this isn’t one
Um I’m not a very tech savvy person. From my perspective, computing is also the only resource left to maintain our rightful freedom over tech. The Internet is meant to be free. Tech is supposed to be yours. Yes, there are exploitative assholes using technology to suck the joy out of you. But I celebrate the people who find and share ways to bypass, circumvent, and nullify this abuse. Which is also computing, right?
No. Just because I’m uneducated about something or not intelligent enough to convince someone else about something, it doesn’t mean I’m necessarily factually wrong or morally wrong about something.
The view I agree with is: If I can’t win an argument I should consider changing my mind.
Viruses mutate constantly, this is how you get new strains of everything so frequently. I’m not sure if you were being sarcastic or not, apologies, if it was a joke question it whooshed me
I get it and don’t get me wrong, I’ve considered it as a temporary solution. But I don’t think I could last for too long
This will depend a lot on your conditions. To see a specific set of traits, you first need to isolate them completely. Over a couple of generations (ten maybe, maybe more or less depending on how many your bunch is) you will probably see they sort of look like they belong to the same family. Similar skin, similar hair shade, probably a certain range of eye color, etc. This is just the product of genes mixing and sort of homogenizing a bit over time.
Like someone mentioned, you could get a mutation, and if the mutation turns out to be either advantageous or simply dominant gene wise then you will eventually see it in most people.
Then finally you have adaptation by natural selection, and this will depend a lot on the type of pressure you subject this bunch of people to. Do they have access to electricity? Are they living completely in the dark? Any diseases affecting them or other creatures underground? Do they have access to space or is this limited? Food? You will likely see your surviving population becomes immune or resistant to underground pathogens, simply because those who can’t will die before reproducing. Similarly if you are short on nutrients or physical space, you will see them shrink over time. If your conditions are more extreme and they’re completely in the dark, you will probably have a population develop some sort of echolocation sense (and this shouldn’t take too long, blind people can develop this to a degree already), and their metabolism will adapt to a much lower vitamin D (unless they can acquire it from some abundant food source). Over an even longer period of time they will either lose their eyesight or if they have access to light (fire? A few narrow openings to the surface?) they will adapt to see much better in the dark. Those are the more obvious adaptations I can think of but there could be a lot more depending on so many factors.
What’s going on in the blue quarter? If you were to show me that picture alone I wouldn’t have recognized him.
Gotta love some good asado though, I guess I’m centrist according to this chart
