That was one impressive prank to pull, goddamn. I would have been scared to death of being shot by American cops

It’s the step between primary and secondary school that a lot of countries have, also known as intermediate school, junior high school, junior secondary school, or lower secondary school: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_school

Yeah it was a middle school thing in Finland too, at least in the 90’s.

I did an exchange year in the US in my 2nd high school year, and I was honestly a bit surprised at how… well, simple it all was. I was a senior in the US and I’d learned just about everything they taught that wasn’t specific to the US or the English language (and even some of those…) either in my 1st year in high school or in middle school.

I actually ran into National Anti-Corruption Commission rules that some corruption is cool actually from The Chaser just a while ago

I know it’s satire; what I’m saying is that it’s impossible to satirize conservatives nowadays because what comes out of their mouths is regularly as ridiculous as anything statirical people can come up with

Oh yeah I was specifically talking about all these new technologies, not just incremental improvements on the existing ones. Hybrid organic cells have been promised for a long time and it’s not just a question of scaling etc., but that they have had serious issues that have so far meant that they were a complete non-starter for any actual real-world use. I didn’t look into this any further so I don’t know of Longi solved the stability problem, though, so it may be that they’re finally actually ready to even start leaving the lab

Yeah, all these super-efficient panels are all well and good but like you said they’ve been promised for over a decade and have yet to leave the lab due to a bunch of different problems such as stability for these organic hybrids. I wonder if these newest ones have actually managed to solve the stability problem, or is this yet another cell revolution that’ll be coming Real Soon Now™ in 2034

Do you think there’s nearly as much lead exposure from aviation fuel compared to literally all ground cars using leaded fuel?

It’s not like literally all Russian artillery gets destroyed before firing off a single shot. Fuzing absolutely does make a difference

Not all that cute though

Are you seriously this thick or are you just pretending?

Conveniently enough, aircraft are mostly in the sky where the general population isn’t exposed to their exhaust, and most people don’t own an airplane or handle aviation fuel

Oh yeah the picture’s definitely AI-generated, just look at eg. the two-headed Trump on the left or the trans Trump who’s 2nd from the right

Share and enjoy!

It’s just so sad how broken the US voting system is. In Finland we have a population of ~5 million, and we have 9 parties currently in the parliament out of a total of 16 registered (the rest just didn’t get enough votes to make it into parliament this time 'round).

Y’all have almost 350 million people and 2 parties, neither of which seems to have much interest in getting rid of first-past-the-post. The really sad part is that Thomas Jefferson independently came up with a voting method that’s identical to the d’Hondt method that’s pretty commonly used here in Urop and proposed that the US should use it, but if I remember right he was veto’d by Washington for whatever reason

The Cyclops’ lesser known cousin, Nipclops

Nothing wrong with that though. Well, except according to conservatives themselves anyhow

Touché

Trans Trump was definitely not something I expected to reich-wingers to be hot for, but I guess it figures.

What the – and I can’t stress this enough – fuck is wrong with conservatives?
