If 2 people work their whole life to prevent the death of 1 other person... The 1 could have saved 2.

Trust me, telling people the vote will look weird ahead of time does not quiet the vote consipuracistst. Heck I'd say it gives ammo. They call it predictive programming. The lie is revealed and normalized.

So each missile costs ~2 human lifetimes to produce? But has the potential to save hundreds if used precisely

There are some schools far far worse than others. The area and demographics make a huge difference

I always wonder what the commonality is across these poor performers. Is it all kids? Kids from home without fathers? Kids from particular areas? Seems like as a society we continue to slip but cannot identify solid commonalities... It's amongst the most important issue in modern society and article after article just cannot find any solution or underlying reasons. Society doesn't just devolve for no reason. What could it be?

Males back then didn't fail to reproduce from the same social situations as today. They were not neets hiding in basements. Failure to reproduce basically means killed, exiled, or having your groups women taken (by force)

And how are those mods on baseline performance? Are the mods appropriate for general audience mid range rigs? The tech industry has the capability of pure ray tracing. Game engines don't use it because the audience willing to shell 10k for PC to run it is exceedingly small. They have to target mid range specs to have an audience big enough to make money.

The solution is mods by modders for modders.

It comes down to how a roll is calculated. See in the US 1 material roll is not the same as 1 computed roll. In the Toilet Paper isle you see products listing their 8 roles are equillivent to 36 rolls from the other guy. So when you use 1/16 of your roll, you are really using 1/2 a roll

That's my suspicion. I used Grammerly in 2021 and those are the type of substitutions I could see

Agree. It's just the builtin android and chrome uses blowing up the numbers. By these metrics android assistant and siri had reached these levels in 2015. Gemini has no brand recognition outside of the tech worker sphere

Now do per capita and see that their rate of terror is 10x what it should be. (And that's before readjusting for the undercategorized events being purposefully NOT counted for cultural sympethies)

Lack of incentive? How about their religion commands it? And that's why it is specifically categorized as Islamic terror rather than generic terror.

You do better and stop deflecting direct attributable harm as something to hide and cover up to prevent indirect harm.
