  • I do not believe in fate.

    You should stop assuming things because you're not very accurate with your assumptions.

    Do you want to speculate if the rounds fired are hand loaded or factory made? Maybe this specific batch of rounds had black pepper instead of gunpowder? Maybe the hammer will break just as he's about to shoot, what are the chances of the executioner having a stroke or an aneurysm? maybe your mom would be your dad if she had balls. And your grandma would be a bike if she had wheels.

    I'm not going to debate elementary school level statistics with you. Option A and C both will give you ~33% chance of survival. But for you specifically. I'd recommend option B, for all of our sake.

  • For instance, in the case of 4/6, one must assume the bullets include 2 sequential empty chambers

    No. One must not assume that. You are trying to make all the assumptions that benefit you. A certain bald spot somewhere. A bias in the mechanism that they know about, somehow it's also about capitalism bla bla bla. You put a lot of effort into purposefully misunderstanding how simple statistics work.

    And no. If you survive the first pull. You are LESS likely to survive the second. Not more.

    It's still the same 5/6 chance. But you having to get that chance multiple times in row makes it less likely the longer you go on. And the math will have it so after 6 times. It comes out to about ~33%

    How you feel about it on a philosophical level doesn't change the reality around you.

    You can choose which ever option you feel more comfortable with. And that's ok. But it's not going to change how statistics work.

  • How are you looking at ~15k / ~45k and deem that terribly low?

  • The previous shots do matter. Because for you to even reach the 6:th shot, all previous attempts have to be in your favor.

    It's (5/6) you'll live each pull. But to reach pull #2 you'll have to survive the first. To reach pull #3 you have to survive the first 2.

    You're looking at events that have to take place is a specific order. You have to multiply each pull to work out the probability of this event following one of those orders. It will come out to (5/6)^6.

    (5/6) is the probability you survive. And ^6 because you have to survive it 6 times.

    You're looking at ~33% of getting empty slots 6 times in a row.

    Previous attempts always have a bearing on statistics if things need to happen in a certain order.

  • Funny enough. Sweden already went through that problem. We call it "Age of Greatness". (Stormaktstiden)

    Basically. Sweden got too big too fast, couldn't maintain an army large enough to secure everything. If i remember correctly, we couldn't produce enough food, and we lost a bunch of territory.

  • Not legal in Sweden. Our "IRS" must also accept the name and deem it legal.

    I for one like this. As it stops some very stupid people to name their children some very stupid names. Such as "Adolf Hitler".

    And yes. Someone did try to name their child this and they were appropriately stoped from doing it.

  • I see. I think I'm starting to understand. It makes sense when you mention that energy has been very cheap.

    Why spend money on new windows when the difference in the energy bill is just a few bucks.

  • Windows like we have? It's just two panes of glass with a gap between the panes for air to act as an insulant.

    Even with plastic windows, you can have two panes with a gap and it will work too.

    I believe you. I just really struggle to comprehend that not being standard in parta where you get snow and cold. Or it being considered "extra". It's not alien technology. It's two panes with a gap between them. That's it.

  • The US. Got it. Say no more.

  • Yes

  • That's the dumbest thing I've heard. The part about there not being good or bad winter drivers.

    Honestly. Most of your tips sounds what someone says that was a tourist somewhere cold once in their life and now pretends to know what they're talking about.

    Sincerely. Someone born and raised in the north.

  • What is north for you? I see so many tips being the dumbest things I've ever heard of.

    Like plastic wrap on your windows. Sounds like something stupid Americans does instead of buying proper insulated windows.

    Not saying I'm a expert. But I am a Swede and deal with snow and cold every year.

  • It's quite incredible how much one can manage to post when it's your full time job

  • I know why engiseers do what they do. I had to perform my own rituals to appease the machine spirit to run my favorite game on ps2.

  • I did not worry every second that I allegedly am about to to live in an authoritarian state.

    What are you talking about?

  • I'm not American, but that was fun to watch. I had my popcorn and everything. It felt like I'm watching Cartman debate Wendy or something.

  • It's sad how easy it is to tell who's from the US and EU here.

    Basically "you're fucked, be a criminal or die" versus, "go to the Social Services and tell them you're homeless"
