Agreed although often times there's a fine line to walk here, unless you're one with too much money on hand. Over here health care ain't exactly cheap and one of my friend got health issue. Trouble is they had gone through their savings like hot knife through butter, all for life's pleasure.

Ah I see. That jauwnio guy used thread. It's a built-in function, you won't need a 3rd party tool for that. Do you see the text [ 1/ ] circled below? That marks a thread.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/fa8b0c16.jpg

https://business.twitter.com/en/blog/twitter-101-writing-a-thread.html
One of the innovations that have come from experimentation is how to signal a thread of Tweets. Currently, when you see the 1/, that signals that there are more Tweets to follow on this same topic.

A thread is a series of tweet linked together basically. There's no limit to a number of tweets in a single thread (there used to be a limit). Click any tweet in the thread and you can read the whole thread. Each tweet in a thread can have its own pic, vid, poll and whathaveyou. Plus you can schedule your posts or even link a thread to another thread iirc.

To make a thread:
(1) Write your first tweet.
(2) Don't click Tweet, click the + (plus) button instead.
(3) Write your second tweet in a new message box.
(4) Click the + (plus) button for your third tweet.
(5) Repeat for the whole thread.
(6) Click Tweet All to post all tweets at once.

You don't have to finish your thread in one go. Post a few tweets first, come back later and then find the last tweet in your thread. You should find the option to continue you thread there.

Btw I wrote this post from memory (except that Twitter help lol) so please google for more info TC.

n is not prime and n is greater than 4.

Yeah this is correct. n = 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18...etc divide (n-1)!

Here's the why part. For n<5 just calculate by hand so here's the proof for n>=5
=================================
(1) If n is not a prime then by definition it could be expressed as n = x*y with 1<x<n and 1<y<n. (n-1)! = (n-1)*(n-2)...*2*1 will automatically have these x and y as factors. Since x and y are both factors of (n-1)!, x*y = n will also be a factor of (n-1)!

In case of n = x*x instead of n = x*y (example 49 = 7*7), (n-1)! will have those two x as factors from x itself (7) and 2x (14=2*7, got another 7 from here). The rest is the same as above.

(2) If n is a prime then according to Wilson's theorem n divides (n-1)!+1. However this would contradict the problem in which n divides (n-1)! and not (n-1)!+1. Therefore n cannot be a prime.
=================================

Proof(2) is proof by contradiction. I could ELI5 that proof(2) but I'm too lazy for that and also...

I still see people doing long tweets today so there must be something

Can you give me some examples? Is it a single, long tweet with 'show more' button on it? If yes then you gotta pay.

https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/8/23591472/twitter-blue-subscribers-longer-tweets-4000-characters
Twitter has launched a longer tweet feature, giving Blue subscribers in the US the ability to post up to 4,000 characters at once. If someone you follow uses the feature, the tweet in your timeline will have a show more button to keep it from taking up your entire screen.

3rd party free posting services are pretty much dead after API change. You can try the old trick for FAQ writing here. Resize your text editor to exactly 280-chars wide and turn off word wrap then write several tweets at once (1 tweet per line).

More like D-cups, girlfriend most likely misjudged. First iirc reboot Lara is 5'6", taller than your average American female. Second she clearly has a muscular build with medium-to-large frame, just look at her wrist.

She wears at least band size 34 there and those don't look like 34E/34DD cups. If she wears band size 36 then they are definitely not 36E cups.

Social media is perhaps the biggest culprit, as it often forces you to compare yourself to others who are displaying the most wonderful aspects of their lives. He says it can make you think inward, and develop an unhealthy urge to constantly change yourself to match your own experiences with the ones you see online. Combine this pressure with the modern consumer culture, where marketing tells you that you can always have something better, and its easy to understand the scope of the FOMO epidemic.

https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/quit-indulging-your-fomo-embrace-joy-missing-out-ncna966236
The quest for more and more choices in life now creates despair, because people become ever more dissatisfied with what they have when they learn that there is always something else and better around the corner. The tragedy is compounded not just because more choices can lead to increased misery, but also because free choices are often an illusion, since people are actually constrained by numerous objective factors related to social class, race, gender and ethnicity, but are told that they only have themselves to blame when they do not succeed.

i got into a discussion yesterday in which my partner was adamant that, if completely equalized for life and opportunities, anybody could achieve *anything*
i disagreed, i said that i think even if all things are equalized, there will be ppl who __cannot__ do whatever Dream X is

First thing first you can't equalize all things like that, you just can't. There's no arguing with homo sapiens biology here.

Baby's genes affect their brain development during pregnancy. It doesn't work like PC parts where you can use the exact same part for different PC. Different babies, different brains. That's it. Even you raise them the very exact same way, their brains still hold different potential and edge.

This statement is a self contradicting statement:
...if all things are equalized, there will be ppl...
Like I said before, if you want to equalize ALL things including brains, you'll have to go with clones not people.
...if all things are equalized, they will no longer be ppl...

Both you and your partner make an argument based on the idea that it's possible to equalize everything. Well mother nature disagrees ;)

But! Let put that aside for a moment. Let's say you go with clones instead of people and completely equalize everything both in nature and nurture aspects. In that case, your partner is right. Each clone would be able to do what every other clone could.

So to be clear, if you take ten people, make the details of their life and upbringing exactly the same, down to the level of care, meals, etc. everything

a couple of those people will still be inclined to be better at thing X than the rest of the group?

Physical characteristic is a thing so yes. Taller people from that group most likely will be faster in running, heavier/bulkier in combat sport, lighter in jumping and so on.

You could go further and try to equalize their physical stats too through DNA modification during pregnancy but at that point they would no longer be people. They would be clones.
