Well, that could be right today, well in my country, not sure in yours. However my education brought me so quickly beyond the knowledge of my parents that besides organizing private lessons there was nothing they could have done for me. None of my parents speaks english beyond a beginners level, had physics in school or biology, knows the latin terms for the grammar rules of the german language (and I don't know why german teachers insist or are forced to use latin terms for past, present, future, conjunctive for the german language when we have proper german words to describe our german grammar). Anyway, education is the prime responsibility of the state. Blaming parents, besides being to lazy to organize private lessons if needed, is idiotic.
Your link supports my point. Frame rate is only relevant if you can relate something to it, like moving the mouse. A normal LCD or OLED has no frame rate like an CRT, a static picture is a static picture. Frame rates come from CRTs, were you needed to refresh the screen, 50 times a second to get a picture. Traditionally that was done with half pictures. the first picture illuminating the odd rows on the CRT, and the next one the even rows. As soon as we reached about 100Hz (actually 70Hz) the screen did no longer have that shimmering effect. Anyway, LCDs etc. don't have that shimmering effect, hence their refresh rate is not relevant.
The war in Europe ended 1991, with the so called 2+4 talks/treaty: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... Before that WEST Germany was considered occupied. German police had no right to stop an american soldier who was speeding, not even if he overrun a pedestrian. The war is over when all parties agree so, not just because a cease fire or an occupation last 40 or 70 years (and even then it might be tricky).
China is enemy of _no one_ (except you count Tibet), since the Vietnam war is over, they were not even remotely involved in any war. That the US consider China an enemy is a pure US thing. Why the funk would they, the Chinese, fight you? Attack you? On the other hand China is the leading nation in development aid for Africa... they put America the shame in many things. Perhaps that is why you now want to call them "enemy"?
An invading force in the Chinese sea would face the Chinese Air Force and most likely long range cruise missiles and ground to sea missiles, you don't need a navy anymore to defend a coast line. Those times are long gone.
Your eyes are not able to detect a difference above about 30Hz - 50Hz. The only difference, as I pointed out, is for aiming with a cross hair using e.g a mouse, where two or three pixels difference decide if you hit or miss. Nausea is usually caused by your balance organs in the ear. You see something but feel nothing related to it, refresh rates of screens have no influence on that.
Trump should get credit for that, and you're ignoring the real substance of his foreign policy. No he should not.
Despite your "insightful" rant, Trump has nothing to with it. And referring to north Korea as "they" when it is only one single person we are talking about, makes clear you have no clue.
The only two persons deserving credit for this is Kim Jong Un from NK and Moon Jae-in from SK. Unless I miss something and other negotiators are involved.
Hint: NK agreed to this despite of the US sanctions, not because of them.
Unless you play a game and want the aim of your cross hair displayed accurately, and for that 40Hz is more than enough. The synchronization of your mouse with what you see, and via internet, were you aim at, is 100 times more important than the "refresh rate" of your screen.
Hint: the old 50Hz/60Hz CRT screens projected "half images" with that rate, and that did not really have any relation to online games or cross hairs but was the technological limitation of the CRT itself. Phosphor made to light uo when an electron beam hits it.
A modern screen does not to refresh at all, unless the video buffer changes. (Which is obviously the case when you watch a video, but a rare occasion when you read a web site)
There is a 1/4 chance that a child suffers from the gene. And a 100% chance it gives (if it has it) further to its kids.
Then again there is a 1/4 chance that it does not have it.
And then again a 1/2 half it has it, and from there another 50% chance it passes it to its children.
However for many genes we know meanwhile that the terms recessive and dominant are meaningless. It was a simplification we still learn in school, but it has nothing to do how genetics really works.
So what is your stupid problem with people wanting a child? Ever tried to adopt one? It takes a decade or two to be in line to even be considered... there are not many kids for adoption in a western country.
I'm all for science but I can't help but scorn people who insist on having their own children while knowing the price their progeny will have to pay.
If enough nations call a sufficient amount of those securities etc in, the US is in very serious trouble. If the US simply refuses to pay, who is gonna force them?
There's already a strong push on to switch to the Chinese Yuan as the international currency of trade as well. Unlikely, first of all the Yuan is bound to the dollar. Secondly Euro is the second biggest trade currency.
However you are right, the US is going downhill since 50 years or longer, but they are to stupid to realize it. On the other hand "downhill" in a world where most nations go uphill is perhaps a bit exaggerated. Perhaps the US is simply frozen in their 1050th world view.

They did not get any military stuff from the soviets since the 1970s, most likely neither from the Chinese.

The biggest air base of the united states air force, on the world, is Rammstein, Germany.
Reminds me about the movie "Dogma" ...
That is nonsense ...
Go read a book about it!
When ever was winning a war not legitimate to rule over the country you conquered?
Oh, you don't consider NK won the war? But they do!
You accepted Yugoslavia, East Germany, you more or less accept Taiwan, what is wrong with accepting NK?
In my book you still occupy unlawfully Hawaii!
Lets talk about world peace when you have released Hawaii into its rightful liberty and reign if his rightful Queen (or is there a King right now?)
How many years does it take that you accept the reality of a global map?
Catalonia is on the map still part of Spain. Similarly NK is its own country, and Hawaii is part of the US.
Wrong analogy, Kim is Hitler.
Exactly! :)
I was searching for words to write something like this but my english escaped me today
Lucky you are not president, you look pretty dumb to me.
I wonder what conclusions you are making when I'm back from my China trip.
Your eyes are not able to detect a difference above about 30Hz - 50Hz.

Since when does NK have no electricity?
How do they actually build nukes without it?
Trump should get credit for that, and you're ignoring the real substance of his foreign policy.
No he should not.

LCD or OLED screens etc. don't need an "Hz".
Unless you play a game and want the aim of your cross hair displayed accurately, and for that 40Hz is more than enough. The synchronization of your mouse with what you see, and via internet, were you aim at, is 100 times more important than the "refresh rate" of your screen.

Again: the defect is a lack of hair!
What the funk is wrong with you? Never saw a bald person that is a genius?
Reinforced is the wrong term.

I like dark hair and dark eyes. :D
The darker, the better
The only thing beating that would be a good red hair with green eyes, very hard to come by though.
Judging from the article, XLHED is not that bad.
So what is your stupid problem with people wanting a child? Ever tried to adopt one? It takes a decade or two to be in line to even be considered ... there are not many kids for adoption in a western country.
I'm all for science but I can't help but scorn people who insist on having their own children while knowing the price their progeny will have to pay.
The price is a lack of HAIR you dumb moron.
I made a joke.
The parent called you an islamist, or something. I think he was an AC and below my threshold
How ever the Amiga relation is funny.
My name here comes from my pilot name when I used to play Descent, originally on Macs, and later many many multi player battles with PCs.
The over all education quality is considered very low.
The spending of the state/government for education is low to.
High quality universities are extremely expensive.
So: which point do you actually want to make?
That paying a high amount of money to a private school does not imply that the student gets a good education or the teacher a fair wage? I agree ...
I have heard (but can not confirm) there is a setting to turn that off, and come back to standard quotes.
If enough nations call a sufficient amount of those securities etc in, the US is in very serious trouble.
If the US simply refuses to pay, who is gonna force them?
