The swamp ass factor (saf) as well as the % forecast on diarrhea.
- Comment on If I found voter irregularities in my home district do I have to hire a lawyer to prove it.? Or just let it go and the Florida Orange win? 1 week ago:
I think you’d be best served by doing all due diligence and proving this to be the case before approaching media. A lawyer would be if you were harmed, so if your vote was not counted, then you were harmed. There also needs to be a known plaintiff, though, so you need a lot of data for that step. You can’t simply use conjecture for legal proceedings, which is why Trump lost or rendered null every case he filed in 2020.
- Comment on Does people doing things that upset others also upset you? 1 week ago:
Anti-social behavior should be shunned. There are varying degrees of harm which people tip the scale on, but I think minimizing harm is an admirable attribute, doing no deliberate harm reduction is sociopathic, and maximizing harm is sadistic.
- Comment on How would I repurpose a work laptop? 2 weeks ago:
Step 1: validate that it doesn’t have Intel AMT enabled.
Step 2: Wipe the hard drive with your own os, not lenovos recovery.
- Comment on Who discovered/"invented" fire? 2 weeks ago:
Wouldn’t it be Hestia because Prometheus stole it from her?
- Comment on Would you take a short term job(1-2 months) over a local longer term that makes nearly 8months worth of salary?? 2 weeks ago:
So long as everything is legitimate, I would say go for it, especially if it helps build your resume. Just keep all doors open. I’ve known lots of people in conservation, and the job to job hopping as grants expire can be extremely stressful.
- Comment on What do you call your mom (Or moms what do your kids call you) 2 weeks ago:
Just mom
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 2 weeks ago:
Check your indexed folders settings. Newer windows relies much more on this, but does a great job when what you’re after is included.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Yes, however, the signals can travel back through if it’s a 2-way wormhole. The universe expands like the surface of a balloon. Theoretically, there are locations far enough away from each other that the distance between expands faster than the speed of light.
- Comment on After Israel and USA's bombing, wouldn't any supposed nuclear bombs go off if there were any? 3 weeks ago:
Reminder that the US accidentally dropped a nuclear bomb on itself but since it wasn’t armed it didn’t explode.
But also the most qualified nuclear inspectors on the planet say Iran doesn’t have nukes.
- Comment on What's the best way to respond to a family member who says the COVID vaccines are being used to depopulate? 3 weeks ago:
“If you think the world’s top scientists are trying to kill you, then why would you listen to any expert about anything? They’ll save you from yourself when you’re wrong anyway. Would you do the same for them? That’s why they’re trustworthy, and you and your sources are not.”
- Comment on Why have all my gmail passwords (and ONLY my gmail passwords) been deleted since I restarted my computer? 3 weeks ago:
Malwarebytes probably cleared some session data. That list of accounts lives in your cache, not on Gmail. If you use the trial premium it may even do this by default, but I always use free no trial.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
That takeaway from Hasan’s rhetoric sounds like the most bad faith interpretation I’ve heard since… Well, every time legacy media interviews Mamdani.
- Comment on Was my ex really sorry/guilty? 4 weeks ago:
Nobody who would gaslight a teenager as part of their authentic display of sorrow. This guy is a piece of shit who was hoping you wouldn’t care and needed you to feel a certain way to cover his bases on not being reported… imo
- Comment on Button fly's 4 weeks ago:
I use both, but I actually prefer the button fly. When you bust through the bathroom door and gotta take a piss, you’ll appreciate being able to unbutton them all instantly with one hand as opposed to the zipper which will break or jam.
- Comment on Odds of rolling a 7 with a weighted die 4 weeks ago:
There is statistically no difference if one is weighted because it’s gone from 6/36 to 1/6.
- Comment on Why is my GPU's "3D" usage spiking so wildly when I'm not even playing a game? It keeps throttling up and throttling down and the noise is extremely annoying 4 weeks ago:
What video card is it? (Vendor too)
What processes are running?
What CPU do you have?
Have you modified any fan curve settings or overclocked? Do you have any software that may do that behind the scenes (x1 or afterburner for example). Have you messed with the card’s heatsink?
Does it need dusting? How’s the airflow? Is the computer in a good spot?
Are there any vbios updates from the vendor? Drivers up to date?
That’s all the basic considerations I can think of. I also know that it’s normal for windows to utilize 3d settings for transparency on windows gui and other random background tasks. Not to the extent it would sound like a vaccuum cleaner, but that may be able to be addressed by a software fan curve. My evga 3090 is horrible at managing its own fan temps and I had to set a much more aggressive curve to avoid lost frames and obnoxious fast then slow fan speed that destroyed 2/3 of my fans before I caught it cycling (I run folding in the winter so mine is rarely idle)
- Comment on What can I do with this laptop keyboard? 4 weeks ago:
It would be trivial to use as an ugly external keyboard for a compatible laptop, but to use it as USB is probably not as easy as hooking it to a standard motherboard header so it’ll cost more than a cheap keyboard to get working.
- Comment on Is empathy based on a financial bell curve? 4 weeks ago:
I never thought about it that way. Great take. If empathy is tied to percentaged of wealth donated then surely the middle is middle upper is the winner, but in terms of what one wishes to give, I find it hard to believe from my experience with extremely impoverished people that they wouldn’t give more if they could.
I’ll never forget a guy in Chicago that while we were checking out a pizza place he walked up, obviously struggling, but was highly recommending the place and gave me a free slice because he was full after his first one. I didn’t want to take it but eventually did because it seemed important to him. I think about him often.
- Comment on Is empathy based on a financial bell curve? 4 weeks ago:
That’s funny, I see a lot of good faith answers here, but keep pretending you’re a victim every time your identity as a class traitor is called into question. Your answer is, “Don’t ask that question here. I also have no fucks to give to answer as the only enlightened person here.” so who’s more bad faith amongst us again?
- Comment on Is empathy based on a financial bell curve? 4 weeks ago:
This is not true at all. Poor people are incredibly empathetic and forgiving. The middle class is a mixed bag but mostly just want to understand why and how to avoid it in the future. Rich people are a mixed bag, too, but most of the biggest assholes are rich.
This is from experience as a banker for many years. Whenever I had bad news (fees for example) for a poor person, they just looked sad. Whenever I had bad news for a rich person 1/3 of the time, they’d want me fired for being the messenger, 1/3 they disappear to talk to a higher up, and 1/3 they grumble and accept it. There are exceptions in every gro. Some rich folks were super nice, some middle class people were nightmares, but there was never a poor person who took it out entirely on the low tier employees.
I think there’s solidarity that the decision comes from others and it’s out of our hands. This may also be because I never told them bad news without advocating for them behind the scenes and understanding the whole sequence of events first. Probably over half the time I got the fees revoked since it was an accident or bad timing on something the bank did. Since we were a small bank, I had more power than big banks would allow.
- Comment on Can you clear a straight line of malfunctioning pixels on a phone with a lighter? 4 weeks ago:
If pressure from your fingers doesn’t fix it, a lighter won’t either. You’ll need a heat gun to remove the screen to fix it anyways, so you’ll find out what heat does to the edges (where these faults occur) regardless.
- Comment on What would happen if the Earth was sucked into a black hole? 4 weeks ago:
From my understanding, no. The center of a black hole is theorized to be smaller than the planck length at at least one “pinch” point. I believe you’re mistaking surviving the event horizon with surviving the entire journey to the splat zone. You’ll still be spaghett before the center. It’d be like hitting an impenetrable wall at the speed of light and coming to a complete stop, you’d more like a bunch of neutrinos by the time you get there I think.
- Comment on What would happen if the Earth was sucked into a black hole? 4 weeks ago:
If it’s rotating, yes. All real black holes are, so you’ve got a point. The tidal force ripping happens in the accretion disk regardless, though. The spaghetti just forms nearly perpendicular to the hole instead of directly towards it.
- Comment on What would happen if the Earth was sucked into a black hole? 4 weeks ago:
If you’re really interested in this stuff I highly recommend reading “black holes and time warps” by now Nobel prize winner kip thorne
- Comment on What would happen if the Earth was sucked into a black hole? 4 weeks ago:
Depends on how big the black hole is. Small, and we’ll be ripped to shreds before the event horizon. Big and we’ll be immortalized in an ever-shrinking amount of red shifting photons from the external perspective. From an internal perspective we’ll also be ripped to shreds tho.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Going through this too, but I believe it is actionable, and things such as working with nonprofits and protesting the collapse in all of its forms is the way to relieve the guilt. I think stepping away hurts me more, personally, than devoting my time. It’s like making eye contact with a victim when I empathize with these massive movements, and tuning out is like lowering my head to break that eye contact.
Everyone is different and has different levels of mental anguish over all of this, so if you feel it is beyond what you can handle, then do not engage until you’re healthy enough to do so. It takes a lot of personal contentedness to be permanently there for other people and it’s not your fault if you aren’t there yet.
- Comment on Why do so many people delete their posts? 5 weeks ago:
Probably multiple reasons. If it’s a throwaway account they may want to cover the tracks. If it didn’t get a response they were looking for, they may delete and recreate to avoid the double posting rules. They may have posted on the wrong account, or maybe the answer was so obvious they were embarrassed.
- Comment on Using licence plate readers to track ICE 5 weeks ago:
It should be pretty easy to pick out federal government plates, but I’m not unconvinced that they use rental cars to do the kidnapping.
- Comment on This fell off my car, can I just rip it off and not care? 1 month ago:
Don’t really see a major disagreement here other than the direction of primary exposure, belts some how being protected behind a fan when the main exposure is from the sides, etc. Puddles have a lot more corrosion potential than rain/snow. Point isn’t to seal, that’s unrealistic, but rather to deflect enough that every puddle isn’t pressure washing your engine bay with salt water. An example car where this was a major issue was a 97 galant, which had the crank shaft low and in alignment with the water jet from the driver side tire. There was a splash shield that directly intercepted the inner spray. I would classify that case as more than nominal protection.
