Not really. I’ve switched from wired to wireless because of the number of headphones I’ve destroyed getting the cable stuck so bad it yanks my body. My ears never hurt from it; just slightly disoriented and audio only working for one bud/side now. Eventually it was too annoying and I switched to full bluetooth wireless. I won’t argue against cables being better for audio, but for me they arent.

Fire is not a liquid.

BigBananaDealer ,

Nope. Wetness is something water can only give to other things, not itself or other liquids.

Water is not wet. And no matter how you try to reason through this, you will continue to be wrong.

EleventhHour ,
@EleventhHour@lemmy.world avatar

it cant make other liquids wet because its already wet by nature

incorrect. this is the association fallacy-- you cannot prove it is wet other than through fallacy. wetness is only a property it can give to other things, not a property it possesses itself. water can’t be wet simply because it makes something else wet.

therefore, you are wrong.

no matter how many times you tell me im wrong, i’ll always know you are wrong

and, for that, you’ll always be wrong.

BigBananaDealer ,

no its you being a hypocrite, which is why you are wrong

water is wet, and everything you try saying how it “only gives wetness but doesnt have it” just further is proving how water is wet. because everything that touches it becomes wet, besides water, because ita already wet

EleventhHour ,
@EleventhHour@lemmy.world avatar

Nope, and name-calling is just another ad-hominem fallacy

Nah, water isn’t wet, it just makes other things wet. It’s unfortunate that this upsets you to the point that you have to make up stories about me and that you have amnesia about the things you’ve said— that you even confuse water with sugar and fire. You must be in quite the twist.

its not ive forgotten but my brain just made my memories get forgotten. but i havent forgotten lets get that straight

EleventhHour ,

its not ive forgotten but my brain just made my memories get forgotten. but i havent forgotten lets get that straight

So… you didn’t forget… your brain forgot? lol

And I’m not trying to convince you of anything— I’m just correcting you. It’s you who have been trying all the convincing with your logical fallacies, acting like water is the same as fire or sugar. Then I have to correct you again by informing you that water is not sugar or fire. I’ve had to do that more than once now.

Since you are so confused, I suggest you take a rest. Water isn’t wet. It just makes things wet.

BigBananaDealer ,

water is wet. because it makes things wet. and you seem to not grasp what a comparison is either. i never said fire or sugar was water i was comparing your logic to something else

One again, I must correct you and - apparently - your brain that makes you forget things.

Water is not wet; it just makes things wet. The transitive property of math does not apply to water because water is not math. (Another thing water is not).

Once again, it’s a false equivalence logical fallacy— neither sugar nor fire are water, and there is no reason to believe they would act like water. Especially considering that water is not wet, it just makes things wet.

CTDummy ,

It threw me at first too. Helps to think of it as wetness being an interaction between a liquid and solid. Water makes things wet, it isn’t itself wet.

ProtoShark ,

So only solids can be wet?

CTDummy ,

You’d have to ask a physicist. I would be surprised if you couldn’t make other liquids “wet”. The solid analogy helps with conceptualising an interface, one material on another. I suppose you could make water wet, by freezing a block and then splashing said block with water but that doesn’t equate to it being wet itself, if that makes sense.

Rivalarrival ,

Wetting is a rather complex topic. Basically, yes.

Not all solids can be wetted. Wax, for example: water beads up on a waxed surface; it does not actually wet the surface.

Not all “wetting” involves water. Soldering and brazing involve “wetting” base materials with a molten filler metal. Dripping molten metal on the base material does not necessarily “wet” it either: the molten filler can “bead” just like water on wax. When it solidifies, the filler metal is not bonded to the unwetted base metal.

tyler ,

wet containing moisture or volatile components

Water is wet. The fact that this is an argument is ridiculous.

finley ,

This describes very specifically how water makes other things wet. Nowhere, does it describe water making itself wet, because it can’t. Wetness is a property that water can only give to other things, not to itself.

moisture wetness caused by water

water is wet. water contains moisture, because water is moisture.

Or you can go the chemical route, which is so eloquently put by Professor Richard Saykally:

they’d say, “Strong tetrahedral hydrogen bonding!” But that’s the correct answer. That’s what makes water wet.

scytale , to showerthoughts in Why don't low birth-rate countries make immigration to their country easier?

Because most low birth-rate countries are first-world countries, and they generally want to only accept people who can contribute to their society and not be freeloaders to the social system. This means they need to filter out the people that come in, and being first-world countries, there is no shortage of people trying to get in. Sometimes they want low-skill, not-highly educated people just for the cheap labor, but not the person actually staying permanently, hence temporary worker visas. If a foreigner really wants to stay permanently, they then need to ensure that you are educated, able to support yourself long term, do background security checks, and make sure you agree to integrate as you mentioned in the OP.

bradorsomething ,

Ah, your post history tells me you’re in texas, that explains your post. I understand your concern about immigrants coming into a country without proper verification, swarming across the land and replacing the actual native population. Such populations usually move in and immediately assume the land is theirs, and do their best to forget the legacy of the original native people. We can only hope that arrogance and bigotry becomes less common over time.

scytale , (edited )

You understand wrong. I am an immigrant myself and literally experienced what I said. I merely recounted my own experience and the hoops I had to go through to be admitted into the country and be allowed to stay permanently. I have first hand experience of what the USCIS requires and checks in order to be granted work visas and the entire lengthy and expensive process to get permanent residency if you’re coming from a third world country. You are literally asked in application forms if you’ve ever applied for government benefits and how much debt you currently have, because that raises flags for them. You also have to prove your skills by showing evidence of the work you’ve done and what special skills or knowledge you have that a local can’t otherwise do. I’ve been denied a visa once just because the consular officer wasn’t convinced that my skills were special enough. It was a long drawn out process just to get admitted in. Oh and you also need to undergo a medical exam because they want to make sure you don’t have any serious issues that can potentially make you a burden to the healthcare system.

So before accusing someone of arrogance and bigotry, make sure you actually know where the person is coming from. I am not against immigration at all. I am merely explaining how the government picks and chooses who to admit into the country through their standard immigration processes. Show me a first world country that doesn’t have those requirements (except for asylum seekers). I’ll wait.

While the chances of licking your finger in a grocery store and getting something that bad are pretty slim, it does happen, and your “natural immunity” is working all the time anyway, you don’t need to DO anything to help it along, stop thinking you know better than either medical science OR your own body. If you’re annoyed with how other people handle their hygiene, how about be an adult and keep quiet.

You gross ass JeeBaiChow mother fucker this is why people get sick from going to stores.

Get your fucking fingers out of your god damn mouth. Yuck. What the hell did you do during Covid lockdowns?

JeeBaiChow ,

I didn’t hear your mother complain, blankets. Maybe i’m how she made you. You’re welcome.

blanketswithsmallpox ,

Dad, you fucking suck.

JeeBaiChow ,

So does your mom, son. So does your mom.

blanketswithsmallpox ,

We’ve established that already. This is why she left you for uncle.

JeeBaiChow ,

Good. You can thank him for that potty mouth of yours, then.

blanketswithsmallpox ,

No, I get my terrible habits from you apparently ya germ spreading Covid weasel.

JeeBaiChow ,

So lick your fingers, open your bags and quit complaining like a little bitch, dumbass. What people do is their problem. Your awareness of covid is quite clear about that.

With David Tennant as the Doctor right? I never watched much Dr Who but yet I can very much remember the last human.

Her first appearance was with Christopher Eccleston’s Doctor. Her second, and final, appearance was with David Tennant’s Doctor.

The old new doctor who from 2005, important distinction because there’s a new doctor who series starting in 2024

Only regarding the episode indexing, not a new show in the same sense as Classic Who compared to nuWho. That was a full-on reboot of the series. This… represents a shift between platforms and the marketing efforts to appeal to new viewers unfamiliar with Doctor Who.

Apparently, Disney believed that starting at S14 would be off-putting to potential new viewers to the show (feeling that catching up would be too daunting), so they reset it to S01 for their streaming service.

Edit:

That is - according to both Disney, the BBC, and literally everyone else ever asked about this with any “official knowledge” - is the only reason for the season number reset. Just a marketing decision for putting the show on D+ as a fresh, new series for the majority of D+ subscribers.

Fuck Disney. They’re gearing to buy the show when the Tories axe the BBC even more.

Cqrd ,

Yep, but even my softwarre separates it as a different series. I understand all of that, but it is still, for all intents and purposes, a new Doctor Who series.

Trainguyrom ,

I did not know that! I checked out about 2 seasons into Capaldi after watching the new series religiously and haven’t returned primarily due to difficulties finding places to watch it, although now more due to young kids who i have to schedule around
