Poor font forces concentration and consideration from the reader.

The pop culture references aren’t interwoven into a story. Everything revolves around the theme decided for an episode, like cryptocurrency or something.

There arent events from the universe or born on characters emotion… it’s just this linear march forward where the writers have x amount of time to cram in jokes surrounding a certain topic.

It’s pretty pathetic. I could write better Futurama.

If nothing is squeezing my face and the screen is good enough I could see myself messing around with workflow set ups. Infinite monitors would definitely be awesome.

Visor is coming out soon. It’s AR 4k made for working. Might be cool.

Not making absolutist statements does not make you idle. It is wrong and misleads impressionable people. Don’t lie to support your cause.

I don’t see anything about this on the fbi website?

This is actually the most productive comment I’ve ever seen justifying political circlejerking. Im not 100% sure about it because im not educated for it but well done lol.

I havent claimed to be an expert I have asked for support to claim that America’s education system is terrible as was inferred. You linked me a high view course with many different topics and have not given any indication that you know about this topic.

You speak in generalities and tell me to find out the specifics for myself. If you asked me questions about my field in computer science I would be specific and try to be helpful for someone wanting to learn more about it.

Yes I am lacking knowledge on this topic. But I have a brain and when I see someone disparage a country’s education system based off of a single percentage statistic I’m allowed to shit on it. The onus in on the person who makes a claim.

We can’t trust anyone as an authority when users are anonymous. All claims are subject to the burden of providing supporting documentation.

Not questioning claims simply because they jive with the general sentiment that America is the worst is deluded.

You can assert whatever you want.

Why is it that every time I take a moment to check on the information presented i find that american literacy is consistent over time and with other countries? Figure 14-1 page 46.

I don’t have time to look at studies on this. But I’m not asserting beyond doubt that I’m right. I just haven’t gotten any supporting documentation from you or OP to support the idea that american education is terrible like he casually infers with a partially relevant statistic.

But that seems impossible.

Thank you, but what option do we have except working with the system?

I don’t disagree that exploitation exists. It’s hard for me to focus on that when I am benefitting from the exploitation of others.

I’m seeing the opposite ideology as destructive though. Working with each other and the system to affect change is surely better than entrenching and dividing? You are saying it’s bad to believe we can make the world a better place? What is more effective than believing that your country can do better? Shouldn’t we be talking to each other instead of downvoting and blocking each other?

I don’t understand much about what you want because you aren’t talking about it. You just insult me.

We have some degree of equality and freedom to maintain, even if it’s not utopian. I’m not sure what preferable alternative exists to vigilance.

You are continuing to attack me because I talk differently than you? I am trying to be diplomatic. This is me.

So first of all, thank you for the civil discussion because that is the biggest lacking quality of scored comment sections like this site. It seems like discussion always brings details that are helpful when we are condemning an entire country with little information provided. This is why I like discussion and not militant downvoting and personal attacks.

I truly have no narrative here but I just searched for immigrant literacy and the first thing I found:

“41 percent of immigrants score at or below the lowest level of English literacy — a level variously described as “below basic” or “functional illiteracy”.”

Thank you for the info and sources. I do have time to watch the lecture, and will.

It’s a nice graphic for sure. I think what I’m trying to say is that while we must practice vigilance to maintain equality and freedom, we carry out these obligations so that we can enjoy our lives.

I don’t understand what I’ve done to be a target for your activism. I’m not a bad person. It’s relevant to point out that lower literacy might not be a failing of our education system as the statistic implies.
