However, in this meme, she says sometimes.
Yeah this is vague. The sentence: “Sometimes men’s egos can be so fragile” can be read as meaning that all men’s egos are sometimes fragile, or it could mean that some men’s egos are always fragile. But the use of “sometimes” implies a variance with time (e.g. not with person) which makes the first interpretation a better fit.
If the second meaning was intended, then the sentence should be restated to avoid the apparent sexism.
You could also say that the meaning is that some men’s egos are sometimes fragile, but I don’t think that interpretation is valid because then the ending of comic doesn’t make sense.
Pointing out anyone’s fragile ego isn’t a bad thing.
Pointing out a person’s fragile ego based on an experience of such isn’t a bad thing, but generalizing this conclusion to an entire group of people (where the group is defined by a single characteristic such as race/sex/gender/religion/culture/etc) is a bad thing.
To put it another way, one sample is bad statistics.
A better version of this might say “Many of the men I meet seem to have fragile egos” or even “Most of the men I know [etc]”. This could be a valid statement supported by the individual’s experience, and avoids the sexism displayed in the comic.
As one of the Mastodon users pointed out, it’s very likely that those cells are still producing some current when exposed to light. The electrical contacts would be a hazard.
I would also expect this thing to get pretty hot in sunlight - after all it’s designed to absorb energy.
No one cared who I was until I put on the mask…
For $40? Probably not.
Don’t skimp on the things that separate you from the ground.
Because “white” is a category of exclusion, defined by being not not-white. It is vague and historically flexible - it may or may not include Italians, Spaniards, Irish, Greeks or Poles depending on who you ask and where & when you happen to be at the time of asking.
If there’s one thing you know you can get from an open source project, it’s spaghetti code.
D/A and A/D | Digital Show and Tell (Monty Montgomery @ xiph.org)
This is a video about the digital vs analog audio quality debate. It explains, with examples, why analog audio within the accepted limits of human hearing (20 Hz to 20 kHz) can be reproduced with perfect fidelity using a 44.1 kHz 16 Bit digital signal.
There is no audible difference between an analog and digital audio signal.
Among other things, xiph.org maintains the .flac and .ogg vorbis audio formats - they know a little about audio encoding and reproduction.
