Recall one of the most insane graphs ever: After a decade men paid off ~30% of their loans and women paid off ~3%

Men pay down student debt and women don't. They have different expectations around college's use and different sensitivity to cost-benefit. https://t.co/KlUXc8cTnn pic.twitter.com/pxsnF9Vr27

2024 YR4 is an asteroid recently discovered by scientists in Chile (it's not the flying Tesla "asteroid", this one is legit). It is an "Apollo-type" near-Earth object that crosses our planet's orbit.

This week, scientists learned it had a 1.2%-1.6% chance of hitting Earth on 22 December 2032.

At a diameter of between 40 and 100 metres (130 and 330 ft), an impact with the ground could release approximately 8 megatons of destructive energy.

For reference, that is 533 times the bomb at Hiroshima and more than double the maximum yield of a US Navy Trident II ICMB.

All this places 2024 YR4 at a troubling 3 (out of 10) on the Torino Scale of impact hazards. It is the only non-0 threat, and the second highest ever recorded, exceeded only briefly in 2004 by 99942 Apophis before closer observations revealed that asteroid would not hit Earth.

So that is the bad news. Ready for the good news?

Calculations by NASA and the ESA show that 2024 YR4's "risk corridor" (where it would hit) doesn't pose a threat to anywhere important.

Mayor Adams kicked off the two-day summit with a rousing speech in which he likened himself to a hero in the war against rats.

"I don't think there's been a mayor in history that says how much he hates rats," he said. "I dislike rats."

Exterminators weren't invited to the event, and neither were the city's rats. Kathleen Corradi, whom Adams appointed as the city's first "rat czar" last year, described the event as a space where rodent experts could share their philosophical treatises.

We are already losing the WAR ON RATS

Matt Frye, of New York State Integrated Pest Management, entered the rat symposium espousing a more diplomatic approach for dealing with Adams' public enemy No. 1.

"The 'war on rats' mentality may not be the best approach for our urban areas," he said.

Dr. Chelsea Himsworth, founder of the Vancouver Rat Project, compared the never-ending fight to the WAR ON DRUGS — and said health officials should focus on harm reduction instead of eliminating the vermin altogether.

"It can't be solved," Himsworth solemnly declared. "It can only be managed."

"I've handled 700 rats myself," said Byers, who fondly recalled driving around Vancouver in a "rat van," capturing rats, collecting their feces and urine, and even anesthetizing the rodents to pick fleas off their skin.

"They're symbols about a lack of resources in your community," she added. "Rats live in tight social groups, When you remove some, you change how they interact with each other. You're changing how you fight for their social hierarchy. And they do urinate on each other that whole time."

"They're just like us," Corradi, Rat Czar of NYC tells us as she bounds into a planter, pushes aside long stalks of milkweed, and points out the entrance to a burrow. "They want to live in a nice place, have food nearby, and not get into too much trouble if they can."

VICTORY! Rat Birth Control Trial Passes Unanimously in New York City Council

Instead of using glue traps, poison, snap traps, or other methods that maim and kill rats instead of preventing their presence, break the cycle of violence.

I respect Thor a ton. This just isn't a good look. Just accept blame and move on. It's a game. Why does Thor need to diffuse responsibility when he has stated the mage's blizzard ability and other tech are specifically there to save groups in dungeons? He knows about lvl 1 abilities saving mana. He knew he had a mana gem. He knew the group was trying to survive. Just say you made mistakes and move on. (-36)

Calling Thor a roach in WOW context is appropriate considering dude just ran. Obviously hate brigading and death threats isn't ok but none of that would've happened if Thor took accountability, didn't handle this drama in the worst way possible and didn't triple down despite being wrong.It's a classic example of Streisand effect in action. (-20)

The frick are you doing bro?The group had members who just woke up. They went in for a run completely unprepared and forgot all the items they needed to do the strat they wanted to do. They nearly wiped due to idiocy but escaped. A short while later, they went back in and AGAIN were unprepared and not paying any attention. They pulled 2 packs and the boss. At this point - the run was already fricked by the other players lack of competence.The call went out to run, again, and the group started to bail.Pirate was not wanting to get caught in the mess that an unprepared and unaware group had caused for a second time. Yes, he was also chatting and didn't call out the boss incoming, but it isn't a mages job to control where the tank pulls mobs to fight.While they fled, before it was clear they were completely screwed, the idiot druid started yelling asking "The frick are you doing bro", and calling people back to 'salvage' the fight.

Dude. It's a fricking game. (6)

To be fair it's just a game doesn't work in this particular instance since it's wow HC. Idk if you know much about wow HC but it's an mmo that you decided to turn on perma death. Still takes dozens or hundreds of hours to get anywhere and you can lose all that in just a moment because other people made mistakes.It is crazy to me to play perma death in an mmo but it's fair to say you cant use "it's just a game" in this kind of situation.

Because this is a game culture he has grown up in and was shaped by. I do not understand why people are surprised. Thor comes across as a really cool guy when he's dealing with the business side of streaming, or his ferrets or anything else. He was a peepee in that dungeon, and probably a peepee in Eve ( I didn't play Eve). Plenty of people are kind of peepees in video games. This isn't uncommon, he's a good player and being a good player he gets a bit of an ego that he's a really good player. And then something goes wrong and he makes a bad call, and that bad call leads to two or three more bad calls. Someone in his guild is probably going to DM him when this cools down going "hey man, you were kind of a peepee for this" And that will be the end of this because this is a completely normal interaction in any hobby where you stress yourself out for fun.

It's been about a year since I've touched this place, I'm just checking in to see if anybody I knew is still around and recognises me, I've just managed to effectively ruin my life plans in one hour. If everybody I knew isn't here now I am happy they're not rotting here anymore, if you are then my condolences.

According to plaintiffs' counsel, Meta engineer Nikolay Bashlykov, who works on the Llama research team, wrote a script to remove copyright info, including the word "copyright" and "acknowledgments," from e-books in LibGen. Separately, Meta allegedly stripped copyright markers from science journal articles and "source metadata" in the training data it used for Llama.

Nobody would argue that fascism isn't racist because ultranationalism is a tenet of fascism. No one argued liberalism isn't democratic because democracy is a tenet of liberalism. Autocracy is not a tenet of communism. In fact, it is the exact opposite. There is no country on earth that claims to have achieved the goals of communism, but the western world labels these countries as communist nations because they espouse the goals of communism. This is akin to calling a construction company a finished building. Are you religious at all? I might have a good analogy for you. (2)

No, I'm a militant anti-theist. The idea that "no country EVER claimed to have achieved communism" is true only on a technicality. Sure, Stalin or Mao never made a speech saying "this is it guys, this is communism! We did it!" And what would it matter if they did? People like you would continue to deny it in other ways. You'd just claim that they were wrong, that wasn't real communism. Just because a nation hasn't reached the end goal of its ideology doesn't mean that it doesn't follow or isn't an example of that ideology. The stated goal of the Fourth Reich was the creation of a pure aryan race, the extermination of undesirables, and the conquest of the Soviet Union to create living space for German settlers. And they failed. But that doesn't mean that Nazi Germany was not a prime example of National Socialism in practice. Also, here's a fun fact: racism was not originally a tenet of fascism. Mussolini himself stated in 1932, "Race? It is a feeling, not a reality." The inventor of ... (2)

yea and we already know that many neo-nazi's are pro Trump. Haven't seen any neo-nazi's support Harris but I have seen many support Trump.also maybe Elon is not a nazi that's fully possible, but he knows that the neo-nazi's support trump.also trump and Elon both support the killing of Palestinians.and who did Biden kill then, or do you mean that under Biden people got killed like which happens under literally every president including Trump.

If you're committing genocide against women and children how different are you from a Nazi really?So the Democrats and their voters are aligned with Nazis on committing genocide in Gaza but the Democrats are better? It would be hard to decouple, but 8 billion in weapons to bomb Gaza has to account for a decent chunk of those 60k women and children.But Elon's and his supporters are still worse right?https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/biden-administration-notifies-congress-of-planned-8-billion-weapons-sale-to-israel (1)
