So when you say that the US benefited immensely, you really mean that a few people (politicians and the ultra rich) benefited. I can understand that you’re saying that the US was successful in achieving it’s goals i just don’t agree that the result was beneficial compared to a more strategic focused approach

As I understand, chasing a measurement of GDP is an effort to show work capacity. This capacity can be utilized in wartime to produce weapons and bolster security. Increasing work for the sake of increasing work does not benefit workers- it does not provide fair wages or safe workplace environments. It does not make citizens lives better. Similarly, there is an amount which must be spent on military for protection and to act as a deterrent, but engaging in a spending race is not beneficial to people. Those efforts could be used towards education, health, transportation and quality of life. I don’t see how you can argue that the US’s goals should be to work the hardest and spend the most on military.

I was listening to a podcast and the guy was saying that the United States aimlessly pursues goals to outperform other countries. For example, the US wants to have the biggest military. The US wants to have the largest GDP. Chasing a goal for the sake of competition does not benefit the US at all. We should work towards fulfilling our own interests but there is no point in blindly pursuing every metric. BTW the US doesn’t try to outperform other countries in health care or education or any semblance of happiness.

Terribly loud non-stop belching

Hmm yeah I obviously haven’t figured that out yet.

Five generations would be 10 people. If one of them was native American, their descendant would be 1/10 native American.

I should say that the main goal of this method is to make eggs that you can peel the shells off of very easily, whether or not the eggs are very fresh. If the eggs you buy don’t have problems peeling then this method might not be the best for you.

With my method you won’t have hard to peel eggs regardless of if they were fresh or not

I would buy a Nas with raid and keep a copy both on your PC and on the NAS

But women are already suffering from menstruation pain and taking time off, this would just allow them to be paid. Companies that are already male dominated are obviously already discriminating and don’t need any tools to do so… Male dominated management can already suggest that women aren’t suitable for higher level roles because they are unpredictable (that’s not true), and they can already claim they are physically less capable so I’m not sure what your point is. I haven’t worked in Thailand because I’ve never had a visa that allowed working. Not sure what your experience is. Maybe look at Johnny Cash’s links that show that Thailand is top 3 in the world for women in executive rolls.

Your statement “Very on brand for modern conservative south-east asian country. You can appear to be accommodating to women while actually building barriers.” implies that the purpose of this change is actually to build barriers for women, which isn’t true. It’s obvious that the purpose is to help women- do you have any proof of your claim?

You’re really focused on corporate executive roles but you know most women don’t have jobs like that.

I would like to see initiatives like these in more countries. I think it sets a good example and it shows they are doing many things right.

It’s essentially medical leave because of women’s biology. I can’t imagine the mental hoops you jumped through to conclude that this is only appearing to accommodate women but actually it’s building barriers.

Some good points. I can’t remember where I saw this, but a game recently made their loot boxes randomly generate loot which was then shown to the player who had the choice of whether or not to open a box. This is much better than blindly opening boxes where you won’t know whether or not you will want the item inside.

Hunt Showdown or Evolve

Are you aware that there are people in this world that have a severe medical condition which causes them to be that way? My mother for instance is one of those people. She is a truck driver that has bad knees and a bad back from driving the truck but you probably do not care about that case either. Oh well I am not one of those people I am 6’4" 245lbs and I exercise every day. I would love to see you say something like to my mother in front of me. Probably never happen though you are probably just an internet tough guy. I doubt very seriously you would say that to someones face. Just my thought.What do you think. Oh I am sorry you probably do not have a brain. I on the other hand will be happy to buy you a plane ticket to come here and see if you have the nerve to say that to someone I know.

It really only shows that it didn’t fail (YET), like the other material did, you can see the other rod bent and one side slid off the platform. There are a lot of ways of measuring materials. This is a valid comparison between the two materials but isn’t intended to demonstrate that it can hold all of that weight without failing.

Maybe it shows how much the wood bent compared to the other sample?

I watched Relay. I really enjoyed it

Also watched Caught Steeling which was entertaining and decent enough but not really a great movie although I enjoy a lot of movies that aren’t great movies

And, fantastic four. I liked it, some parts more than others. the action was really exciting and i thought they used their powers/intellect well against the more powerful Galactus
