Because it’s a smaller area than 7x7.
If you consider the regular packing in an infinite plane, tri/hex packing is the most space efficient (least wasted space), so I’d assume larger packings would tend towards that. But in smaller packings, the efficiency loss from the extra size needed to offset the circles outweighs the efficiency gained by hex packing.
7x7 is the boundary where those efficiency tradeoffs switch.
What’s truly fucked is they got caught doing it, then got released on bail and it went on for another year before they got caught again. I hope these sick fucks go away for a long, long time.
Honestly, a part of me was a bit disappointed that’s not what it was. I was so invested and curious to learn why that could even happen, only to find it didn’t.
Glad he’s ok-ish, though.
That shit works IRL too. Why do you think therapy practices often have themselves positioned in front of a wall of books? Not that it’s a bad thing; it’s good for outcomes to believe your therapist is competent and well educated.
Sometimes you gotta bring up the classics, maybe someone still hasn’t seen it and will be one of today’s lucky 10,000. (:
But there is basically nothing preventing you from some private recreational forklift operating
That sounds like a horrible idea. If you operate a forklift without proper training, some really bad stuff can happen.
What are you talking about? The billionaires love cheap labour.
Oh, his voters. Yeahhh…
Studying maths is a good way to pasta time.
There’s a difference between not buying anything from China, which would be nearly impossible, and not specifically having your own merch made there, though, especially when you get to choose the manufacturer. It’s not like China is the only place you can have these things made.
There’s nothing wrong with shearing sheep if there’s no exploitation occurring. The problem is when you add a profit motive to keep breeding animals designed with their exploitation in mind.
However, I’m going to go out on limb here, and say there probably aren’t many sheep in the care of vegans except on animal sanctuaries. The important thing is to stop buying wool and funding animal exploitation.
Lol, yeah, same. r/VCJ helped me go vegan too. My first time there was so confusing and anger inducing.
Might also want to make an image of the device with dd if=/dev/DEVICE-NAME conv=sync,noerror bs=128K > sd_card.img first. It’s often a good practice to make a raw backup before doing anything that changes the device.
Didn’t WaPo recently get bought out? Or was that another paper I’m thinking of?
Edit: Nope, just reorganized, it seems.
“Rectuma Dentata”, what a wonderful phrase
Rectuma Dentata ain’t no passing craze
I always get “I barely eat any meat.”
My dude, if you need to make a confession, see a priest, or a shrink.
I agree, and understand change takes time. But to be clear, I’m saying advocating for half measures is relatively ineffective, not that half measures themselves have no effect.
Really? That’s how things play out in reality for sure, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be calling for anything less than a complete abolition of animal exploitation and cruelty. But let’s try it with some social movement that’s often discussed on Lemmy to be sure. Do you think this is a good take:
“You shouldn’t call for an end to the genocide in Gaza, that’s unrealistic. Just stick to ‘Israel should try and kill fewer Palestinians.’ Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.”
The problem of advocating for half measures is that you don’t properly communicate that the behavior in question is unacceptable. It sends a mixed message: “It’s bad and you shouldn’t do it, but it’s still OK to do a little.”
Where’d you pull voter fraud from? The idea is he’s rationalizing making the situation worse to his audience, but voted under his actual name. When your satire is fully indistinguishable without having to be told, it’s shit satire.
I think you skipped a row.
Also, 6*6+7=???
