More evidence that we need to send support and materiel to Ukraine as soon as possible. Russia’s war of conquest won’t stop on its own.

I’m old and out of shape, so I’m not the ideal soldier, but if the conservatives push that shit and there’s an organized resistance by sane, compassionate people who care about people, I’d try to do my part with them.
Yes, to the Palestinians
He’s a self-righteous asshole.
I’m just as guilty of this as the next person sometimes, it sometimes seems like a struggle not to be your worst self online. I’m trying to be better, I think that’s what we can do to combat it.
There was a bit in one episode where the muppets where singing a song about wet paint, and at the end they threw a can at the camera and it splattered on the screen covering it. It was the first 4th wall break I’d ever seen in my very young life, and it traumatized me so bad I was afraid of multi-colored things that reminded me of wet paint for years.

I used to work in a call center and once took a call from a guy named Jacob J. Justice. Guy should’ve been a Marvel superhero.

It’s common in some iconography to depict children as miniature adults.
And you’ve long since given up trying to defend your incorrect position, so I can only assume that you’re childishly continuing in an attempt to get the last word. That’s fine, go right ahead and have the last word, I won’t reply further since it’s that important to you.
No need. The fact that you’re incapable of comprehending it at this point indicates that any further attempts to explain it to you are equally likely to fall on deaf ears.
The good calculator is the one using the processing power of the phone to handle the programming necessary to correctly interpret the order of operations and arrive at the correct answer, whereas the bad calculator - despite having no ads - is a cheap piece of trash unable to contain the necessary computational logic to arrive at the correct answer.
Yeah, kind of. The crappier calculator is the one generating the incorrect answer. Any calculator with any real level of oomph behind it can parse this correctly to get the correct answer, 16.
No, what I’m explaining to you is the facts behind what every calculator with any modicum of computing power will tell you, namely that 2(2+2) is identical to 2×(2+2).
And there you’ve proven exactly what I’ve been saying all along. 2x works the way it does because there’s a variable involved, and natural reading of that treats it as a single entity. There are no variables in the equation in the post, there are only definite numbers, parentheses, and simple mathematical operations. 8/2(2+2) is nothing more than 8/2×(2+2). There is nothing special about 2(…, this is not the equivalent of 2x.
Fortunately, the rules necessary to resolve the equation in this post are extremely elementary, so none of what you’re referencing has any bearing whatever.
There are exactly three things to consider in here to determine priority: parentheses, multiplication/division, and addition. The addition happens first due to the parentheses, and the remaining is evaluated left-to-right. The only correct answer here is 16.
All your deflection from your embarrassment at misreading a simple equation doesn’t detract from this.
