Having visited in 2019, it was incredibly clean. They charged just a standard transient occupancy tax of I wanna say a few euros a day. But that’s multiplied by 24 million annual visitors staying for multiple nights each. I need to read this article when I get home and see what the new funds are earmarked for, because I remember being happy with everything from cleanliness to safety to transit while I was there.

Worst part about Lemmy being a tech heavy space is that so many users spout shit like “They’re not banning it, just deplatforming it” like yes, dipshit, that’s effectively a ban for something like 99% of people. You think 100,000,000 people are gonna fucking sideload the app? Love this place but it can be a bubble sometimes.

Republicans never argue in good faith, and bending over backwards to give them what they want just shows them they can demand even worse terms next time.

How Would You Handle Students Cheating?

I gave my students a take home exam over spring break. (This is normal where I teach) One of the questions was particulary difficult. It came down to a factor of three in the solution. That factor inexplicably appeared with no justification on many of their exams. I intend to have the students I suspect of cheating come to my...

Probably treating as “forgetting to write down their steps” before jumping to cheating; presumably you’ve been teaching them to show their work and they forgot to do that here.

Give them the chance to show you how they solved it on the board, if they can then great! Give ‘em the points and send em on their way. If not, then give them a zero for that part of the test and move on.

We laugh but this is not uncommon. I remember reading manpower contributions to the war in Afghanistan back in ‘17 and there were two Estonians and four Icelanders on the list. Hilarious when put next to the 10s of thousands of Americans.

Well generally everyone on joint bases like that reports to the base commander. There’s always a clear chain of command that transcends nations when it comes to NATO operations.

Also, I expect that most small detachments like that are just technical experts, not just straight infantry or anything lol

Yo that’s crazy! I was surprised to find out the Pi 4 I picked up a few years ago can’t even stream 1080p video and it has 4gb ram and a 1.8 ghz cpu

Dunno, was just trying to watch YouTube on Chromium. I tried to install Firefox to see if that helped but it did not.

I looked it up on the pi forums and from what I could tell it’s just not capable of 1080p60.

Yeah, I’d quit too. I mean, aren’t they just going to be drowning each other out at that point?

So I could set up a private instance on, say, a pi and then never be at risk of losing my account? (Particularly interested in things like subscribed communities and saved posts)

I mean, not that FSR is perfect, but of course it can’t keep up with DLSS. These articles always feel like a waste of bytes.

Ages is a stretch, It’s not even 5 years old and the company has released another game in that time.

Yeah but my point is that it’s not like Remedy is just doing nothing and ignoring Control. They’re still hard at work making games.

“we are going to continue building our revolution, despite the tightening of the blockade”

I haven’t been following Cuba at all, can someone more knowledge expand on this? Has the US tightened the sanctions on Cuba? I thought we loosened them during the Obama years?

Thanks for the link, I don’t see anything in there about the US “tightening” anything, though?

Guess it’s just a case of using hyperbolic language.

Are the mechs still not for fighting?

I was blown away when I saw they were basically making that Love Death and Robots episode into a game then they said “no fighting with the mechs” and I lost all interest

No, this asset pack is coming because only because they already sold it with the deluxe edition.

US Common Law directly traces its lineage to English Common Law, which in turn has its roots in Anglo-Saxon law. Courts still occasionally cite centuries old English legal cases.

Justice Alito cited the 13th century English legal treatise De Legibus et Consuetudinibus Angliae when he allowed states to ban abortion so I guess it’s pretty inspiring.

Lol so true. Doesn’t change the fact that it’s an almost 800 year old citation being used by the majority opinion of the highest court in the land.

Talk about precedent.
