Pretty sure that’s a sink. So it’s saying not to put human remains in the sink. Even with a garbage disposal.
That’s how so many people get caught with murder on a lot of crime shows.

There is a Futurama scary door episode where a scientist is annoyed by his wife and son always wanting his attention so he builds a robot so she has that instead. The robot makes his wife and son happy. So he can work on the things he likes without being pestered by them.
The end of the scene is him realizing the robot had a fulfilling life while he rotted away.
It’s the episode in the video thumbnail. Starts @1:20

We account for all of that. We have higher quality equipment to reduce device delays.
Are you sure you aren’t “predicting” ?
Also I really question how accurate the website is. Has it done latency tests on your screen and keyboard and accounted for that? Because maybe it’s using the wrong information and adjusting your score out of humanly possible ranges.
I say this because it takes nearly 150-250 ms just for the visual stimuli to be processed. There is no way around this. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P200
There are specific processes that occur in the brain that take time to happen. And these are dependent on size of the brain (a very small factor within same specifics,) and myelination. A much bigger factor even within species.
Myelination is essentially the lubricant and insulation for signal wires. Signal travels faster and in higher quality when neuron connections are adequately myelinated.
This is something mostly genetic but can be degraded with diseases like MS and aging.
Of course having stronger pathways from using those pathways often will make them more accurate.
Motor control is , in many ways, the most simple processes the brain does. It’s not that simple. But compared to a lot of other functions it is.
Motor Pathways are mostly mapped out in humans. However, We still don’t understand completely what the cerebellum does but it’s very involved in motor control. (Not initiation tho). Because of the straight forward nature tho of initiating a response we know those hard limits of reaction time for pushing a button after seeing or hearing a stimuli signal.
Also
The best thing for your brain is adequate, efficient, and reactive oxygen supply.
Meaning the heart and vascular system can re route oxygen quickly to various brain areas in response to need.
People want magic vitamins and neurotropic drugs to make themselves smarter but in reality, cardiovascular health is literally number 1.

Yeah but that was not supported.
It’s biological.
- Comment on Forever young 1 week ago:
So I said there is a difference of about 200ms. But humans cannot typically react faster than 200-300 ms. Even young people. Because it takes at least 200ms for a signal to be sent. So I’m suspicious of this result.
I used to do research on reaction time. We throw out any number under 200 because it’s considered not humanly possible and it’s an error measurement.
- Comment on Forever young 1 week ago:
It’s honestly maybe more flattering than you realize.
Motor Reaction time starts to decline around age 30.
Comparing a 20 year old and a 30 year old. About a 200ms decline. That’s not huge in real life activities. But it can make a difference in games.
So essentially if you are over 30, playing against 20 year olds, you are literally playing with a handicap.
If you still beat them, that’s something.
It could mean your prediction skills are superior, that they circumvent motor response delays.
It’s likely something like that is occuring.
Some humans are really really good at compensation in the brain.
When something starts to slow down or not work as efficiently as it used to, people with higher cognitive intelligence, often find alternatives approaches to compensate for this loss. To the point where the end product is even superior to a young healthy brain.
This is actually the real reason why people who are higher educated and more intelligent show less severe dementia symptoms and get the disorder later in life. Or so it seems.
They actually have it just as bad (biologically) but are masters of brain compensation.
A famous study on nuns is how we first learned about this. If you are interested.

Foot size is more related to height than dick size. I can 100% confirm. I dated a dude 6ft 4. Wore size 15. Near the bottom of d size of my body count.
Also he constantly talked about how big he was. Always wanted me to confirm he was bigger than my previous partners. Gah. I only dated him like 2 months.
I’m also 5’3". And I did not like dating someone so significantly larger than me. Honestly prefer partners closer to my height.
The logistics just don’t work with a full 12 inch difference in body length.
- Comment on what do you use to add weight? 1 week ago:
Yeah in the slicer you can add “pause at layer”. What slicing software do you use? For Bambu and prusa, you just go to the preview, roll through the layers to find the one before it closes up. And right click on the little icon for thing on the slider that shows the layers. On the right side. And you get an option to “pause at layer”.
- Comment on what do you use to add weight? 1 week ago:
Drop a penny or two. Or a nut. Stainless steel ones seem heavier. But cost more.
Just make a cavity in your print. Also I pause and put in some glue when I drop it in so it doesn’t roll around inside.
- Comment on I like making these memes out of spite 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I’m not the only one who was a long term user who got perma banned over some b.s. there are comments all over Lemmy of stories like mine.
I guess most of that karma was from answering questions. And I was kind of proud of it. But I reminded myself when I lost the account. It is fake internet points. It doesn’t actually matter. It doesn’t undo the work.
I also used to post tutorials for various hobbies I do. That’s also been a pain cause now when people want to message me a question, they can’t.
I was pretty active in 3d printing subs. I made models to fix problems and made some troubleshooting tutorials and mod tutorials. Luckily I linked to 3d website accounts so people message me through there sometimes with questions.
It’s just been like. Very inconvenient. And it feels like something was stolen from me.
I guess I’m still a bit sour about it. And now all my alt accounts are banned as of last month. I haven’t even used them for anything.
They just did some sweep where they found alt accounts of banned accounts and banned those too.
My 2nd account was 8 years with 10k karma.
Also I modded two small subs. No other mods. So I don’t know what’s even going on with those now. R/lightpainting and r/paracosms
Very small subs but they need someone to keep the spam in check.
My other sub I modded for a decade was the one that caused the ban. It was for the city I’m in. And maga trolls starter harassing protest posts. Threats. I posted a list of their user names. Saying these people are trolls and are banned. Apparently that’s “doxing”.
And that Asmongold guy posted my user name on his stream and on Twitter and told people to harass me.
I got a lot of messages. Weak ass threats. So many threatening to sue me for banning maga trolls. It was actually a bit amusing.
They also tried to find my identity but a decade on a psych sub taugt me to keep identifying info off reddit. They kept sending me links to random people’s Facebook saying “this you?”. Or “your dog is ugly”.
I don’t have a dog.I was worried they thought they found me and was harassing some poor innocent person.
I sent screen shots of the Twitter post to reddit admin. Reported the threat messages.
Also a week before that I messaged them and told them my sub was getting targeted and asked for assistance. No reply.
But the magas reported everything I did. Including some political art. And I was perma banned for inciting violence via political art. And doxing.
The art was the statue of Liberty holding Elon’s severed head. Sure it was extreme (that’s the point of political Art). But. It was within reason. Imo.
- Comment on I like making these memes out of spite 2 weeks ago:
They are perma banning for anything now. I went to the stages of grief when it first happened. My main account was 13 years old 300,000 karma.
I was prime mod of r/ask psychology for a decade. So much free work I did. And I was a good mod. I almost never banned anyone permanently. Usually 7 day bans for being an ass hole.
I worked with people to get their post approved. I always tried to help people understand the rules with examples or give them suggestions on how to make their post.
I admitted when I was wrong and fixed the issues when someone flagged them.
I also always had high quality support mods on my team. And we often discussed issues with people so that we weren’t too biased.
Running that sub was important to me. So much disinformation is spread about psychology topics. And I wanted at least 1 place that people could trust.
We gave credential flair to experts and I personally had them send me proof of credentials.
It took me years to polish that sub. I learned to code the automod for that sub.
Me and other mods created wikis for career info and education.
So much work.
Gone.
I tried sending appeals multiple times. No response.
I was angry. I was in denial. I bargained. But ultimately I accepted it. And ive walked away.
The ask psychology sub was left in good hands. And maybe it’s time I passed on the torch anyway.
Started moding that sub when I was working on my B.A and now I’m finishing up my PhD. It was just this sort of passion project for me.
All things change. I left it in good hands. It is what it is.
- Comment on I like making these memes out of spite 2 weeks ago:
I’m actually enjoying the smaller community. I joined reddit back in 2012. It was popular but not at the level it became. It was also mostly millennials back then.
I met a lot of cool people in meetups. I actually ran local monthly reddit meetups for 5 years until I moved.
Now reddit is mostly bots. But even before the level it is now, there were a lot of grifters. Rage bait. Thirsty posts. A lot of theft in art communities (not an issue anymore cause AI has stolen everything).
Fake bot accounts reposting front page stuff 2 months later and getting back on the front page. Trolls were getting out of hand.
All the companies selling reddit accounts. You could literally buy up votes. Still can.
Its just been going downhill for a while. And then the 2025 censorship and purge of veteran users.
All of my accounts are perma banned cause I outted some extreme hostile maga trolls. (And id do it again!)
You know there was a time when a lot of reddit was actually just being funny in a slightly antagonizing way. Like every one would play along and just ham it up. People do it here and it’s definitely a more comfortable online space to be in.
Where people asked genuine questions they wanted to know the answer to instead of just asking for people to validate their opinion. Which is most of social media.
I sound like an old fart and maybe I am. But my gen experienced the Internet for the first time in our youth. And online social spaces were king of magical. I think I still cling to the idea that they can still be places of possibility. Places to connect genuinely with like minded people.
Back in my day, You could make your own geocities websites. For free. You had chat rooms. Yahoo games where you played with strangers across the country and chatted with them.
Msn Messenger.
I’m getting all nostalgic. And off topic.
Anyway. I like the smaller community in lemmy.
It’s probably like 90% real people. For now.
And i don’t think anyone sells up-votes . For now.
I don’t mind if there is less content. The quality is decent and the comment section is more manageable and easier to be included in.

That depends on two things.
The dosage and the person’s tolerance.
Drugs that are ranked higher for drug addiction typically have strong fast effects and fast loss of the high.
But all drugs have addiction capabilities because of how tolerance in the body works. Tolerance, withdrawal, addiction. All part of the same process.
So back to addiction.
Cocaine. Immediate and intense high. But doesnt last that long. Same for the heroine.
Drugs like meth and adderall are basically exactly like cocaine in many ways except the high is actually more mild (per dose) and lasts longer.
Opiate medications can be seen as similar to heroine but. Last longer and not as strong.
Of course you can take larger doses of either of those two and get a stronger effect.
Even if you don’t tho, people still get addicted to both of these more milder forms of cocaine and heroine. My just not at the same risk level.
And the risk declined drastically if taken at therapeutic levels (like following prescription drug directions).
Another thing you have to consider is genetics in brain receptors.
Some people’s brain responds strongly in eurphoria to a drug while someone else’s does not.
For example. Opiates. I personally do not get euphoria from opiates. I instead get a bad headache and extreme nausea. I had an injection of morphine about a year ago for a ER visit. Not only did it not help the pain at all, I had unpleasant effects from the drug. I was not high. But I was woozy. It was incredibly awful.
I actually told them not to give me optiates because I already knew I didn’t tolerate them but that’s what I get for going to a 1 star ER.
So how is it possible that a drug like an opiate wouldn’t make me high or at the very least block the pain I was having ?
Genetics. My mother is the same. The part of other peoples brain that the opiate drugs bind to, will not accept the drug in my brain. Instead the drug is binding to some other receptors. Starting a cascade of signals that give me delirium, nausea, and a headache.
They are different enough to make a drug have a completely different effect in two animals of the same species.
It’s things like that, that make designing drug therapies incredibly difficult.
So even when we try to give a basis run down of what drugs are highest risk, we can’t say that’s true for everyone.
There is zero chance I could become addicted to opiate based drugs. They literally are aversive to me.
It also means if I get injured and I’m in severe pain, there isn’t much that can be done (so pretty big trade off. Here’s hoping I don’t get a painful terminal cancer).
So at present. Schedule 1 drugs have a specific definition. And that definition indicates a high risk of dependency.
You can read up more about how a drug qualifies for schedule 1. And schedule 2. I think that will help you understand the system better.
