  • For me specifically it is because I have dyscalculia. Which made all mathematics is school quite difficult. I could understand reasonably complex ideas and through my own methods could solve equations but I couldn't show my work because it was all done it my head.

    It took me until grade 10 or so to come up with a method to know the multiplication table but it still takes more than a moment to work a simple calculation out.

    Oddly I can work out and calculate the weight of a trailer of freight within a few hundred pounds with very little information in order to balance it for shipping but 9 x 8 involves 10 x 8 = 80 - 8 = 72

    I failed math multiple times until I was put into math B for the slow people. I did better than the teachers assistant on tests. Went back to regular math the next year thinking I could do it if I was so good at remedial class and failed within a few weeks and stopped going.

  • Make the same deal with El Salvador, send your German Nazis to the gulag down there to see how quickly trump can suddenly change his mind about being able to get people out of the gulag. He would want to save the Nazis from the concentration camps.

  • As the other commenters mention the charge controller was broken then perhaps they replaced it because the charge controller caused failures in the battery pack. If one covered part hadn't failed then the battery wouldn't have failed.

  • In the small town I now call home, there were complainers on the local facebook page saying their pencil marks could be erased. What utter idiots, it gets folded up and put in a box by your own hand so when would someone be erasing it. The volunteer workers said no one steals the pencils but people take pens so even if you put equal amounts on the table the pens will soon be gone.

    The righty's are worried that high turnout means a loss for them since voter apathy is their only surefire way of winning.

  • Many years ago I worked in food logistics and we would send a pallet tote of horsemeat from somewhere in Quebec to somewhere in BC every few months so I wouldn't think that horsemeat is in huge demand by any stretch of the imagination.

    Meat is meat, if we raise it we should be eating it. Just because it is a beast of burden/pet doesn't mean it shouldn't be on a plate when it has served its other purposes. They can't just be glue afterwards.

  • You expect a corporation to want to spend money making labels in multiple languages.

    There are six Walmart's in El Salvador. Why would a company that gets its employees to sign up for food stamps to offload their responsibilities onto the govt spend money on multi language labels?

  • Just to be a devil's advocate, his life was pretty full of heavy amphetamine addiction from the late 50s to the 90s. His recording sounds like a man singing about the hurt he no doubt caused to himself and those he loved during the decades of drug abuse, no matter how shiny that life looked from the outside.

  • Are subsonics the bass sounds that are so low that you can't hear it but can feel it if the space is small enough?

    I used to listen to some electronica that would move my cars subwoofers like crazy but you couldn't hear an audible base.

    What should I do about my parents moving closer.

    A few years back my sister passed away, I'm now the only child my parents have left. They live a few hours away and have for as long as I have been with my partner (7 years).

    My parents are planning on moving to the place we now live to be closer to me. This has my partner worried that they will be over often or I will be over at their house more often. Her parents are very far away so can only visit once a year.

    My parents are not the kind of people to show up uninvited to anyone's house. They likely will come over once a month for dinner and I will probably go over by myself once a week.

    We are both pretty private people so not having anyone over is just how we are and this potential change of more visits has her concerned that our privacy will be gone.

    I am also fine with them not coming over often, I like it being just me and her but I do want my parents close when they have medical emergencies.

    How do I approach this as currently she is a bit annoyed but taking a more "se
