It actually changes all the time. It uses mostly questions and time constraints that someone with little education can accurately take and the median score of 100 is adjusted based on the average of recent (ish) people who have taken the tests.

It does only test specific things of “intelligence” and isn’t all encompassing. Hypothetically speaking, Mozart would be considered a genius in regards to music, even if he would have scored an 80 on an IQ test, because what an IQ tests checks has fuck all to do with music composition and wouldn’t tell you a thing about it.

IQ is just a data point.

“Ow my balls” isn’t a downgrade in tv entertainment these days.

Dong (his lil face)

Pretty much every bird looks cuter than adults after a couple weeks old.

Baby birds all cuter after they like 2 weeks old. A ton of newborn things look pretty ugly.

Yeah, but that news won’t make a boardroom happy.

Everyone knows there’s no such thing as a ten second rule.

It’s a five second rule.

Also, to the shit thing; it’s a very well established fact that shit spreads tons of disease and infections. You sound dirty for just trying to bring up the counter point of getting some shit on you at birth and I don’t want to shake your hand.

Also, the 5 second rule is bullshit. Those people are yucky.

A cat figured out how to use my doggy door about a year ago.

Now I have a cat.

I believe it is.

Nah. In the US when you look, it does say lake America.

The gulf of Mexico also says gulf of America.

Did you seriously think Google couldn’t give you different map names based on your location? Really, Bud?

Shit. Watch a documentary on fast food commercials. It’s already been crazy bullshit before AI ever showed up.

You mean you can’t just get Apple’s driver to work on Linux by turning it off and on again enough times?

Changing payment methods may result in a premium increase.

Fuck them. I would be switch companies. If they try to turn a buck on shit like this, you know they’ll try to fuck you on a claim.

Ok. Cool.

But how are teens the losers in this?

How so?

Ok. Call it prison then. Same issue. Also, what would happen if you said on social media that you thought the tiananmen square massacre was an atrocity?

Also, if you don’t feel it’s an authoritarian government, what do you call it?

*Edit: I forgot to ask. The videogame thing. What country are you referring to here? Since games were coming out of many different countries and most of the consoles were out of Japan. Who exactly there is your enemy? And if all of it was to block propaganda and misinformation from other countries, that implies that China was the only source of information you were allowed to know of growing up? You don’t feel like that was oppressive at all?

Ah.

I see where the problem is. You decided to equate me saying China is an authoritarian state to me also saying that the US is not an authoritarian state.

Ok. Do you think China is not an authoritarian state? I believe they are for reasons such as their social credit system and their game console bans that went for like 15 years and banning any games that would allow user generated political content and any political opposition will land you in a camp.

I mean… It is tho.

Not to mention they’ve been getting literally double the price for their cattle for a while now.
