You forgot the third possible “outcome”.

In short, you will never change anything in the present, because it already happened.

everything you’ve wanted to go back and change has already been changed by you, you going back doesn’t change anything, because it already happened, you’re just tying up and completing the paradox.

There wouldn’t be anyone for you to go back and kill because if you did and succeeded they wouldn’t even be alive when you decided to go back. E.g. let’s say you wanted to kill Hitler (he’s already dead) All you’ve done is one of the failed assasination attempts. And it’s only now you realise that was you.

They’ve expirenced roughly a 3% increase in their black population from 2010 to today. Going from 3 to 6%.

That’s not a 3% increase in black population. That’s a 100% increase in the black population. Assuming your numbers are correct. You are today, twice as likely to see a black person in France vs 2010. But we’re not talking 2010 are we? We’re talking about the 50’s

I’m sorry but you really have nothing to back up your claim that the “majority of europe” had seen them in real life.

You also seem hyperfocused on Germany and France but i think you’re forgetting the other, roughly 40 countries in europe.

Except for the fact that the vast majority of black soldiers went home and were not deployed in Europe after Germany surrendered.

What does it matter if they were segregated on the battlefield or not, you think there were civilians on the battlefield?

Contrary to what you might believe. Natives in the colonies were not exactly rich. Even in France, during the 50’s the amount of black individuals was measured in a couple of thousand. Not exactly a lot compared to the roughly 40 million french.

Your statement was that the majority of europeans in the 50’s had seen black people with their own eyes. And that’s just not true. I sure plenty had heard about them. Maybe seen pictures. But that’s another thing.

I did not see a black person in real life until i was 16 in 2010 and traveled to Florida. And by then i had already traveled around Germany and France. I do not imagine the probability of bumping into one was higher in the 50’s

Wow. I don’t even know where to begin.

Black US troops (which were segregated from the white troops) did not exactly run around on vacation in the french countryside.

Most French, Dutch, Englishmen, (among others) did not go to any colony. They stayed home… working their normal jobs. Farming the land, making shoes, sewing clothes, building houses. Etc.

And while we’re just starting to grasp the concept of US not being the entire world. I have to inform you of the next class, which will cover the fact that France and Germany is not even close to “most of europe”.

What makes you think “most white people” in Europe had seen a real black person in 1950?

The whole idea of minstrel shows was to mock africans. Seeing a white guy in blackface is not equivalent to seeing a black person.

I know it’s difficult to grasp the idea that the world is larger than just the US. But you’ll just have to try.

I didnt say they were good or bad. I said why they exist in the first place.

If you came to the conclusion that makes them good, well that’s a journey you took all on your own.

They’re not flying the jets anywhere near the limit on airshows. For one it’s just not safe for the public. And secondly no one wants to reveal the actual limits to enemies.

And yes. I think it’s entierly possible. Seeing as she’s taken her jet for a whooping 40 second flight just to get from one side of LA to the other.

Seing one operating in person and seing one on display are two very different things.

But military airshows are not just for ordinary people to be amazed. It’s an opportunity for the manufacturer to market their airplanes.

And while it does burn a lot of fuel. It’s nothing compared to all the private jets flying around the world.

I’m pretty sure Taylor Swifts jet burns more fuel in a year than all airshows combined.

Yes. I am well aware. 6 ÷ 2 * (2+1) = (2+1) * 6 ÷ 2 = (6 * (2+1))÷2 = 6 * (2+1) ÷ 2

What he wanted to do is 6 ÷ (2 * (2+1))

But this just comes down to if you treat 2(2+1) as one or two expressions.

And honestly, i don’t blame anyone for thinking one way or the other. Because i think most people understand that we wanted to write (2(2+1)), just that the overall parentheses is implied

Why i deleted that first comment within seconds was because i saw i had misread the meme as (6÷2)(2(2+1))

What makes you think that they are not smarter than humans?

The past 30 years of studies conducted on them.

All of the things you’ve highlighted, except speaking to dolphins, are things primates also do.

The very specific topic for this post, were applied mathematics and critical thinking. And no, orcas do not show any advanced application of mathematics.

If you know of a study that indicates their understanding and application of mathematics rivals ours. Please link it.

The question was more intelligent that us in applied mathematics and critical thinking. Dolphins, whales, orcas have all been well studied. And while they are in the top 0.01% of intelligent life on earth. They are on average not smarter than humans. Though I can not speak for the below average humans.

The likelihood of that is a statistical zero.

Intelligent civilisations leave traces. We’ve found none that would indicate another species that would have the potential of rivaling us

Believe it or not, but everything is not about the US. Sometimes countries decide on policies without a single thought as to what the US thinks about it

This is obviously a fake image, Pluto is still there.

Glad you didn’t. Be careful, we removed the door before moving it so it was at least slightly lighter.

If you want an actual (reasonably) secure safe in your home. Get a proper gunsafe that can be bolted to the ground and/or wall.

A fucking pain in the ass to transport if you ever move though. But that’s the cost of having a reasonably secure safe at home.

If you need something more secure than that, I think you need to store it in a bank.

No, you’re supposed to make fun of the US for not being able to maintain a supply line to a war they started themselves.
