The ground is longer than the live and neutral prongs, so it never connects without a ground. The live prongs have a plastic bit that make it impossible to pull out the plug part way and bridge the gap with a finger or something without pulling it out far enough for the plug to not get any power at all. There are also built in fuses. The plugs also have wiring inside them, with a slightly longer ground wire so that the live and neutral wires get frayed before the ground.

Roll up, put in ziploc bag, suck air out with vaccum or breath. I basically have too much room in my bag.

TECHNICALLY this is correct. Because at some point that many will die. Disliked due to statistics. Shame.

Here's the thing with this though: if you're in the middle of the intersection and the light changes to red, you keep going, because that's not fucking safe. This is not the case with the legal definition of consent; in that, I mean that consent can be withdrawn at any time, and the person performing the action requiring consent must stop then and there.

We could take a hint from the British, their plugs are fairly brilliant in terms of safety.

Solitaire has a really specific strategy. It's like 2048. If you learn how to fully optimize the process, you'll win almost every time.

4chan has tried to do that. They didn't actually take out the servers or anything. They just posted stuff that would "trigger" people, but are still not considered against terms of use.

I've lost all hope for the school system in America. Not because they don't teach good things, but rather, because they don't teach. I was so angry when my USH teacher said that the curriculum was modeled to pass the finals. That is not what education should be. Also: I'm growing pretty weary of all the stereotypical starter kit things. They're stupid and are often used to undermine a legitimate belief. Though they can sometimes be funny.

They do go over it. A=Pe^(rt) is used when teaching about exponential and geometric functions.

A wounded soldier is more burdensome on an army than a dead soldier. But if there is a situation in which you don't feel safe enough to simply wound the enemy, shoot to kill.

Not quite how that works. Everybody gets high taxes so poor people get less poor, and in turn, get higher taxes. It redistributes the wealth. I think Bernie fails to explain his point properly.

They do. It's called economics, money matters, and I'm pretty sure there are other ones. Not hard. Tick the box on your elective sheet.
