The frontend is the portion of a webserver you see. It’s the website after the server has done processing everything it needs to in the background.

Instances in this case means a webserver which is apart of the fediverse, more specifically one that uses the lemmy API in this case.

So tldr, a lemmy server could use tesseract in its code to have a prettier website displayed for users.

It absolutely is 1/4th of what remains. Rachel will be left with 9 and Tracey will have 7. They’re not going to say ‘what remains of the quarter tracy took’ because it’s nonsensical. Tracy took a quarter so there’s nothing that remains of the quarter tracy took. they’re not going to mean ‘there is only one quarter left and tracy takes It’ either, because that also is nonsense. The only meaning that makes any possible sense, then, is ‘tracy takes one quarter of what remains’, which is 12/4 = 3. Tracy takes 3, that’s the only answer that makes logical sense.

The ‘remaining’ quarter means a quarter of what is remaining of Rachel’s pile. The phrasing is odd but there really isn’t any way to misconstrue it without turning the meaning into nonsense that you can’t do math on.

I got this exact feeling when watching ‘A Few Good Men’

I don’t know about government/societal consensus being the standard by which we teach. I’d prefer expert consensus on subjects being taught more. As a US citizen, Governments and societies are often bigoted and delusional.

Vermont too.

Being repeatedly stabbed in the flesh to leave a permanent mark on yourself that signifies something important to you - that’s metal at face value.

Plenty of people hold little-to-no value in their skin being ‘clean’, and so a symbol is more value for them than blank flesh.

It’s also nowhere near as big of a detractor as it used to be. Nowhere near the same amount of discrimination over tatoos. Plus, they’re usually pretty easy to cover.

Overall, who gives a fuck if someone posts a pic on their social media of a new ink? It’s barely a footnote in folks’ days, why would we care?

In pedestrian-friendly cities, children usually just walk to school. They’re called 15 minute cities because because you can get anywhere you need, including schools, in 15 minutes.

Also, because there’s fewer roads to maintain, and the majority of people walk, the streets actually get plowed and handicapped folks often have an easier time getting around than in car-centric cities.

You’re kinda provin’ the point. I don’t go into GTA and think “yeah i’d live here”.

They do also romanicize cities a bit. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a traffick jam in GTA, for example.

Okay, yes, true, but they also constructed the entire N’avi language, created a fuckton of lore about the planet, and thoroughly fleshed out the lore and design of Earth and its voyage to and from Pandora.

This wasn’t a visual feast made for the viewer, this was a feast made to employ all these skilled artisans in a massive production, and EVERYONE except the writers fucking blew it out of the water.

It’s not really about fault at this point, it’s about solving the issue and bringing the ecosystem back into equilibrium. Like any pest, it’s natural to put ire towards the group of organisms actively causing something to deteriorate, and thus sympathy goes away. This makes eliminating them much much easier for locals.

Or until you’re explained just how much damage they’re doing to forest ecosystems by overbreeding and destroying native plant life. They’re becoming a locust-level issue.

You’re aware no child left behind was literally that, and it’s a big reason for schools declining as they are right now, right? Because the standards it set were poorly thought out, and the execution of said standards was also terrible. And that was when the US government was still even mildly coherent.

The educators - the people who actually gave enough of a fuck to go through years of college and take a dirt poor job because they believed in teaching - should be setting the curriculum. Not some bullshitting politician on the hill.

Sounds like the knife fell out of the rack onto the heating element.

Personally, I don’t even put my knives in the dishwasher. Too much chance for them to be damaged or damage something else.

Edit: I guess redditors have never seen a fucking ceramic knife before? Or am I missing something here?

Could also just be a painted blade knife, which are also common.

Crocs are also good for wearing for 14 -18 hour shifts too, though, right?

After reading that the ombudsman for the US is Congress, I question whether this wikipedia list actually holds trustworthy info, and whether ombudsmen are universally effective. Congress do not strike me as effective resolvers of anything.

100% this plane’s crashing.

I dunno, I don’t think women want this as much nowadays. Alot of women I know do seem to be into k-pop dudes, though. The slender, aerodynamic, and chic vibe seems pretty in.

Those humans are quite large.

Did you read anything about kuru beforehand? It’s contracted by ritual eating in general rites. They also have no means of diagnosing prion infection in a corpse, which is why people would eat brain tissue with prions. It didn’t spontaneously form in those victims, it was in the corpse. Overall, it could be avoided by just not eating infected meat, hence why Papua New Guinea did not collapse from kuru - it was rare to get it, and once the mode of transmission was known, it was much easier to avoid.

Chronic wasting disease was first observed in deer in the 1960s, and there is nothing actually confirming it’s exact origin. it was first noted in deer herds being researched in Colorado, and as far as I am reading, it did not jump from sheep to deer.

We do actually regulate mad cow disease, going as far as culling entire herds of livestock and disposing of the meat. Outbreaks happen, yes, but we are keeping that spread down. This is also in meat that we sell at an insane scale, one which would not be replicatable with human meat without slavery.

With human donated meat, it’s very unlikely you would get prions. Again, you are way more likely to get it from cow meat and deer meat.
