Did you see them drive en masse the wrong way through red lights?

This shit happens all the time everywhere? Really. Everywhere, cars are just all going the same direction, ignoring every traffic law en masse with no cops doing anything?

How is this relevant to the point at all?

They are acting extremely unsafe for no reason.

I think you're a little too focused on the one very specific way the bicycles were being unsafe in the video. Every example they listed was another way that cars are driven irresponsibly all the time, not just during a critical mass event where the point is to flood the streets with bicycles.

They’re taking advantage of everyone with their shitty “dev exchange rates”

Also, it’s a bit light to say that they’re stricly saying taking advantage of people because only because of their fees.

I'm honestly not sure what you're trying to say. I didn't say the transfer fees were the only way they were taking advantage of people, I just wanted to use the thing you already admitted was predatory and use it to give an example of how roblox is taking advantage of children.

It's not really a "free video game giveaway" if you need to pay for a membership to get it.

I think so, there isn't much else that can explain the classroom scene where half the class are all playing the same goofy animation at 5 frames per second, mostly in sync. It would have looked better to have them not moving at all, so at least some of the jank was a stylistic choice on gamefreak's part.

Pokémon

Is that still scarlet and violet? Because if so, I don't think that was a problem with the switch.

Seems to cover what you're asking about. Found it from here if you want to see some people discussing it for some context.

Your numbers are all over the place and don't really make sense for what you're talking about. 3 plus two groups of 6 would only be 15 out of 20, so where did the other 5 people go?

But more to the point, if those 3 stop pedaling, or pedal harder than everyone else combined, or apply the brakes, or tip the bike over, any number of other things they could absolutely change the speed/direction of the bike.

Polar Functions and dydx

We are interested in the lines tangent a given graph, regardless of whether that graph is produced by rectangular, parametric, or polar equations. In each of these contexts, the slope of the tangent line is dydx. Given r=f(θ), we are generally not concerned with r′=f′(θ); that describes how fast r changes with respect to θ. Instead, we will use x=f(θ)cosθ, y=f(θ)sinθ to compute dydx.

From the link above. I really don't understand why you seem to think a tangent line in polar coordinates would be a circle.

A straight line in polar coordinates with the same tangent would be a circle.

I'm not sure that's true. In non-euclidean geometry it might be, but aren't polar coordinates just an alternative way of expressing cartesian?

Looking at a libre textbook, it seems to be showing that a tangent line in polar coordinates is still a straight line, not a circle.

Amazon does still sell digital music files, you just need to find the "digital music" section in Movies, Music and Games if that link doesn't work for you.

But you're right about google music, it got turned into youtube music and I'm pretty sure it doesn't allow purchasing and downloads. I'd imagine apple also still lets you buy music, but I've never actually used them before and don't plan to start now.
