You are correct, that was a flaw in my process.
If a child makes it from K to G12, that is 13 years of school. Checking a quick chart showing the number of enrollment in schools from in the 80’s and 90’s, enrollment was lower. Once it hit 2005, it is between 49m-51m. If we cut the percentage in half to and round down to 0.3%, my statement of the 4x magnitude still stands.
Thank you for considering, checking and bring up that misrepresentation in my previous number.
We can start by acknowledging that you are already pushing the line to minimize the issue by trying to make it about physical harm only, not psychological harm of being in an related incident.
Most recent data is from 2022, and indicates there are 49.6 million school aged children in the US. The closest we have to official numbers around children involved in gun violence in school shootings since 1999 starting with Columbine comes from the Washington Post (because, for some reason, the US government doesn’t track this). It says that 338,000 children have been involved over this time period.
That comes out to 0.7% of all school aged children have been involved in a school shooting in the US. Your 'bullshit, pulled from your ass, percentage above is 4 magnitudes off of reality. That is the same as you finding a ten dollar bill and loudly yelling “I JUST FOUND $100,000!”.
Do better and suck less. This is just around your claims as well, that is setting aside the monstrous view point that any percentage of kids would be acceptable to be involved in school shootings.
I find it almost criminal the amount of people who do not know about this. Absolute life saver for work.
If you want “more of an answer” this question is already loaded to be implying that leaving motion blur on is the wrong answer. What kind of discussion could you possibly have around this? “I like how the blurred images fly past me” vs “I think you are wrong, clear images only club!”.
This isn’t something that will grow someones understanding or open up a whole new idea to them. Anyone can go click the button on and off, compare, and make a choice. If you were discussing what preferences someone had for a receipt and how they substitute ingredients for more/less savory, that makes sense for discussion. This does not.

Best and most correct answer here … and this comes from a guy that hates motion blur and lens flare
There is a food truck with the same name in Grande Prairie Alberta, doubt it would be closer but at least it is out there.
I would consider buying a Tesla after a couple years then … maybe.

Lol, comments off on the youtube video…cowards.
I have hundreds of hours into this game, but man did this dev team wear me down and out. The constant, huge game changing development is the reason this has taken over 10 years to get to this point. Someone needed a bit better of exploration in their direction when they started.

My guess is it depends on how important it is to you. I have forgotten mine basically every time I am ever asked.
Didn’t Among Us peak years after release?
I was looking for this in the list. There are not many win-win scenarios, which is what a post apocalyptic world likely be.
I 100% endorse this comment and am glad to see someone here representing. Anyone who says store bought pirogi’s are almost as good has not had good homemade ones. They are next level.
Takes a lot more than that to keep me from my wine.
Who wrote that title.
Use to, until my new phone no longer had one. I miss my corded headphones.
The debate in the comment section is always the same when comparing generations, and the problem is people flip flopping. You cannot cite examples of general patterns for one part of your point, then anecdotal specific people’s experience for the other. Pick one or the other, and sadly your anecdotal points are basically useless.
I am sure you mom / dad / aunt / uncle / grandma / grandpa are all nice people who don’t deserve the hardships they are going throw. The difference is that the younger generations are there as well, and they didn’t even have the chance to “prepare” with savings, or a chance to vote, campaign, protest, strike or anything else related.
I am almost 40, and I am dreading the day my kid questions me about “what did your generation do to help the future” and I have to say absolutely fucking nothing because they sat at home, feeding on crumbs tossed to us and had no backbone to stand up for them when they couldn’t, myself included.
You are probably safe for multiple reasons. Not the least of which is, unless you are already on the winning side of the rigged game, you will not become a billionaire. Millionaire maybe.
Your terribly cherry picked facts of taking only the deaths against the population (or so I assume, you have shown no work) are still dishonest to the issue. Napkin math shows that at least about 0.5% of US schools have had a school shooting in 2024 (546 incidents with 115,171 schools). “My facts are from the Brady Institute and are 100% correct.” is just simply incorrect as there are more victims of school shootings than the 414 deaths (the lowest it has been in 5 years, so not even an average)
Oh, and referencing the Brady Institute. I assume you mean this one?

The one fighting gun violence in schools with the exact opposite morale standing and talking points you mentioned?
You are likely the same kind of person who is saying “wHy diD wE mAke aLl thEm ozOnE lAws, iT’s fiNE nOW! wHaT a waSTe”.
Additional article for you as well, in general gun related deaths are the leading cause of death for children and teens. I guess that is inconsequential as well. https://publichealth.jhu.edu/2024/guns-remain-leading-cause-of-death-for-children-and-teens
Final point, I know I would never be able to change your mind / view point. The only hope is that others who read this back and forth also come to the realization that your numbers and position is full of crap.
