Ah, the sweet ring of Goodhart’s law striking again.
You’re absolutely not saving your kids this way.
Yikes, that’s a long time to be stuck in what sounds like an abusive family dynamic. I’m so sorry.
I’m guessing you’ve looked into any possible alternative routes to an ID?


I’m not sure it was tilted away from them in the first place, but Trump being insane isn’t hurting.


Reminder that they basically changed the scale in the 90’s, when history was supposed to be over. It’s higher now than during the damn Cuban missile crisis, not because we’re somehow closer, but because of a kind of ratchet effect as a very baseline Cold War level of tension returns.


If I have to swim with a corpse I think I’d rather something large than a bird. No chance of it floating up to me by surprise.


For fun? Uhh, kilometers. It needs to be far enough away to become abstract. And I do find the ocean slightly gross and pest-ridden already.
For a good reason, like someone is paying me? A bathtub if fresh, typical public pool size if not, and I’m showering right after.


Everything is a lot more urban now, which is a big thing that would get in the way. A farmer in the great depression would have been seeing and getting to know their neighbors a damn lot, and outsiders couldn’t exactly take a rip out on a highway to bid, either.


Yeah, it was an obvious joke, but it’s honestly a bit unfair to Neanderthals. If they had survived maybe they would have tended less towards stupid wars and revanchist autocrats. There’s really nothing in the record to show they were lesser than us, except maybe that they went extinct.


But I thought they were trying to migrate into Europe. /s
That’s actually a lower education level than than for all Canadians, IIRC. Which is interesting, since the vibe definitely is that everyone here is in STEM.
And yes, the author definitely surveyed their own instance and not all of Lemmy.


Well, you can put your DNS requests over the proxy as well, so kinda a skill issue. I don’t know if people do though - you’re the professional.


Now that I’ve actually looked at the study, what they did is make an apparatus with continuously adjustable distance to display and try to get people to distinguish scaled, fairly similar clips until they couldn’t anymore.
Actual maximum pixel-per-visual-degree values varied quite a bit based on colours involved and the like. And like @GenderNeutralBro@lemmy.sdf.org said, they framed the results the opposite way to the article - human vision can distinguish more than previously thought.


A link to the study, because I don’t think I see one in this very clickbait-feeling source.


It sounds like the study actually did include display distance, and gave different requirements depending.


That seems like a failure on their part. Buy more exit IPs.


Because all the videos are still there.
If that seems like a self-perpetuating problem, it’s because it is.


It seems like most people will believe any technical-seeming message shown to them.
In the US, there’s Adult Protective Services that might be able to help you.
