Our history teacher would give anyone who submitted a good cheatsheet (meaning good info, small form factor) for the test beforehand an automatic pass (but no higher than a passing grade), though you can’t take the test for a higher grade.

DrRatso@lemmy.worldto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•I'm looking for games with unique or experimental game designEnglish1·2 years agoWell, thanks for that, I bought it yesterday and am having a blast. Worth mentioning that there is a free (albeit old) version of the game too.
well it ain’t no PG TIPS but it will make a gallon of oddly flavored water
Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.
Wouldn’t the price go up irrespective of which side you tax it on? Obviously if this is a megacorp, they could spread it out over unrelated products, but in the end its not like theyll roll over, take the corporate tax and leave the product at the old price. Is it being a poor tax even that bad of a thing? This is not a necessity and poor people are generally going to be the ones that suffer from poor diet / lifestyle choices in very big part due to the price/calorie aspect of junkfood et al. Lets be real, if you buy a bar once a week, 1.29->3.29 is not a big deal.
Also, we do have tax on sugarry soft drinks in the EU (atleast my country), it is just laughably small compared to EtOH and tobacco). I personally always have thought that anything with added sugar beyond a certain amount should get a heavy tax, conditional on this tax being funneled into healthcare / public health programs.
DrRatso@lemmy.worldto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•I'm looking for games with unique or experimental game designEnglish3·2 years agoHell yea, I remember watching toribash parkour videos and in general the sick sequences people posted. Also skin designing trading, I think the skin stuff was way ahead of its time.
DrRatso@lemmy.worldto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•I'm looking for games with unique or experimental game designEnglish9·2 years agoToribash is a unique take on fighting games, where you control the character in freeze-frames by adjusting actions on the character’s joints (relax, hold, flex, extend), then executing those actions. You can make singleplayer sequences or fight other players one on one - you get X amount of seconds per move simultaneously with your opponent, then the movement is resolved and you have another action round.
Omega Strikers - I’m not sure if this fits the bill entirely, but I think it is relatively unique in what it does and I have been playing the heck out of it since release, so I’ll plug it. It is a mesh of MOBA and table/air hockey, the game plays in 3v3 - 2 forwards and a goalie each team. Controls relatively standart for MOBA, the goal is to get the core (puck) into the enemy goal. You can also knock opponents off the sides or damage them making it easier to knock them off.
DrRatso@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What discontinued feature do you miss from phones or other technologies?English2·2 years agoI dont care about the jack, the lightning-3.5 for 10bucks is more than a-ok, that said fuck bluetooth headphones, apart from the “smart” features, sub 50$ cans can and will blow the audio quality out of the water for many of the “entry level” (quotes cause entry is still approaching 100 bucks) BT ones and when you match price it is no-contest.
That said BT cans are still fine but after dabbling with hi-fi I can’t go back to BT.
DrRatso@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What discontinued feature do you miss from phones or other technologies?English2·2 years agoNo affordable way around it? If you are approaching BT headphone cost, your headphones or buds will almost definitely come with a detacheable wire.
Personally my on the go is PortaPro, they dont have detacheable cable, the wire is flimsy but are only 30 bucks and the repair on them is actually super easy, the part where the wires solder on is actually easily accessible.
Just a PSA that if you find yourself often waking at night to drink or pee, you should get checked out for diabetes.
DrRatso@lemmy.worldto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Fellow pirates, what are some underrated websites and softwares that more people should be using16·2 years agoAnd Sci-Hub while were at it
By that reasoning, sure, it is not arbitrary, it might be the most efficient way to resolve things without complicating the notation we have to use. The point about it being arbitrary was more to say that there is no real mathematic basis for it, we have simply agreed to do it this way so everyone applyingnit arrives at the same “correct” solution.
Arguably it has little value in algebra too, since it tends to be written less ambiguously, tho I have not had to really use algebra much since highschool (weirdly it was not a huge part of medschool, at least here, occasional use in chem and phys only).
Im sorry, what? The order of operations is completely arbitrary, it just also happens to be the standart. Not having PEMDAS would simply mean we have to write equations differently. PEMDAS et al only exist to avoid ambiguity as in this image.
Usedit on the rare instance where FF is borked for one reason or another. Like e-signatures sometimes just refused to work on FF for me.
DrRatso@lemmy.worldto Enough Musk Spam@lemmy.world•Elon Musk doesn't have a natural feel for empathy or emotions, says his biographer who's followed him for three years.1·2 years agoThis is not a good descriptor of paychopathy. Psychopaths are essentially people with antisocial personality disorder, you can look up the DSM or ICD 10 entry for that, having those traits is not enough to secure a psychopath label.
Yea, the thought was that if you actually went the distance to create a good handwritten sheet, you have probably learned enough for at least a passing grade, so you can take that out instead of getting caught and failing.
