There are very different kinds of "smartness". The currently favored (by most modern societies) kind weighs logical and structured thinking very heavily, that doesnt mean someone "isnt smart" if they dont possess those qualities. Also, chess does not even rely on the commonly referred to "smartness" that much. The most important aspects are long term memory ( for remembering situations from games and acting accordingly)and thousands of hours of practice.

.25 cents? Thats 0.0025$, what a steal!

It just shows what the focus lies on. A post full of comments recommending adblockers has far more impact than a single comment making the post seem dead.

Youre technically right that it is unoriginal, but I dont see how originality would matter at all in this case.

This is a post about unnecessary rage that absolutely noone has to deal with because everyone should use ad blockers. OP may or may not know, but the post suggests the later. I dont see how it is 'unoriginal' to comment about ad blockersin that case...

It used to be a piece of this. Those sloppy steaks made the jight sooo fun!

Your comment is way more sexist than you make the post out to be

I dont think anyone can call themselves prude if they dont find Prison School disgusting. Not saying that being prude is good in any way though.

Disnt think I would see prison school recommended here xD

Im doing pretty well. Living in Germany, educated parents. Did okay in school, never studied much though. Went to university, got my Masters in Mathematics (needed to study a lot for that, but its my passion anyway). Started working at an IT company in the same city.

3 years later, I have around 50k in savings now. We live in a small apartment, are in the middle of buying a house.

Capitalism is really fckd up, especially in the US. I try not to take advantage of it too much, up my monthly donations with every raise, vote left-ish, dont support big corporations.

I think the biggest factor for success is luck for being born under the right circumstances. Thats like 99%, the rest is having some self control.

Probably because 99.999% of users already use JS and dedicating a web page to it is already more work than they needed to put into it

Most people dont have heart attacks, so 2.5 times that is not really much.

Hello, Ive used boost for reddit for a long time and really enjoyed it. I would like to use Boost for Lemmy in the same way as my main app, but whenever I open it multiple times on the same day, after like 10 posts I get the same posts I already read before. This is really the only thing keeping me from switching from Connect. Hope this reaches you and have a great week.

Edit: If we cant get this feature, is there any other way to get new stuff to my feed? As is I can only browse Boost for 10min per day.

 

Hi guys, so me and my mates got a website running for "internal use", like sharing pictures, recipes, events and stuff like that. We tried The Events Calendar, but the synchronisation only works if the site is public. Do you guys have any ideas what we could use? Maybe a google calendar that we synchronize with the website or something?
