So, I vaguely remember a podcast talking about this. Maybe Reply All? But anyway, they will move into a market and pay the costs to establish a footing or something. A similar thing happened to a pizza shop and they were subsidizing it so much that the owners realized and took advantage.

Edit, I believe this is what I was remembering: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-52724062

But how do we know that they haven't changed since the docent was generated. Clearly the only solution are genital inspectors...

I hadn't considered this before... but I think you're absolutely right. It will literally silence any talk, and I guarantee it won't be long before they call for a third bathroom...

I never understood Twitter. I tried it for like a almost a month and eventually forgot my password and just didn't care anymore.

But when I did use it, you make a tweet or comment and then either no one responds to it, or like a hundred people respond with mostly vitriol or just total confusion, not even relating to your comment.

It ended up just being like a really shitty news feed, with a mix of random people from Ghana that started following me and visa versa for whatever reasons.

I want everyone to understand that you can not have methanol type poisoning from the regular beer brewing process. Too many people think home brewing is harder or can lead to poisoning... it just doesn't happen.

This is only possible in commercial brewing where the tanks have temperature jackets.

And even in commercial brewing you're required to use safe substances in the jackets, in case there is some type of hole. In the US I think the only thing approved is propylene glycol which is non-toxic (but expensive in large quantities).

How this even happened is beyond me... but that's why they require food safe, just in case.

Why not? They are banned because they can last forever and blow up random people for decades after the war.

I am confused as to why we care about the ability to do so "after hours".

We called them when they weren't open and they couldn't quote us a price!

Because then she would have no toast for them.

God, now I have to root on Falun Gong to chip away at the CCP? This timeline sucks.

Ugh. This should be more widely known

I just want him to appoint El Chapo as head of the DEA

 

I am from the US, and was wondering if any kit works on every home toilet.

Maybe I am going crazy, but I have noticed a difference about ice cream and its only been Maybe the last 8-10 years was when I first noticed it.

Ice cream from the supermarket doesn't seem to melt properly, and is also way too soft. This seems most noticeable in novelties now, but also most hard ice cream as well.

Did they add some component to make it softer or less likely to freezer burn? Am I just going crazy?

(US, but I assume anywhere else where the same brands are sold have had the same issue.)

If so, how? I would like to share some videos, but I don't want the recipient to have to go to tiktok. Android

 

I am looking for first person shooter type games (that preferably have an active multi player base) for PS5. My preference is for more type RPG games with a lot of permanent upgrades for the weapon, character, skill, etc. The more focused on upgrade and specialization the better.

Excluding suggestions COD, Borderlands and Xdefiant.

 

All the communities I could find were related PC or Linux gaming. I am specifically looking for a recommended list of good FPS on PS5

Thanks for all the suggestions so far.

 

And batteries... but the ratio is getting out of hand.

 

You are going away, to some place isolated... in space, of course. You will only be around one other person. You can take an allotment if 1GB of personal media with you (text, video, music, games, pics, etc.) that you will be able to access in your free time indefinitely at will.

The other person will also take 1GB with them, but you won't be able to talk to them until you're on the journey.

You will have access to any knowledge resources to perform your function and keep you alive. You will never return to a point where you can get new external media. Any additional media you ever access would have to be created by you and or your travel partner with what you have access to.

You will also not know the sex of your partner, but they have willingly taken the same risks to embark on the journey as yourself, and will have a similar mission.

 

I was wondering if deaf people commonly watch movies or TV with the sound on to feel the sound/music? Or is there not a sense of enjoyment if it can't be heard?

 

Google and various websites says 28g of pecans is between 185 and 195 calories, how in the world are praline pecans much less calories?

 

I am going to eventually use Linux (although need help with a good option for gaming and video library use), but I was curious how long I could use Windows unregistered for? What are the limitations of it not registered?

 

[Resolved!]

I traded my cousin some really expensive RAM that I happened accross for his old desktop, that he put his graphics card into that he swapped from his newer computer. If I plug the desktop into the wall and try to turn it on nothing happens. If I open it up I can see that the where the wire from the power supply plugs into the graphics card there Is a little light on. So clearly some power is getting somewhere...

How do I go about trouble shooting this, and what tools do I need? I assume at minimum a multi meter? Not really sure what to do, it's been decades the last time I built a computer.

Board says "Asrock H110M-HDS"

Edit: Attached a Pic and noticed the light is actually on the graphics card, not motherboard. Added addtl info.

Update: So now all of the sudden the fan spins. I am at a loss as to why it spins now, as I haven't actually really done anything. I ordered a speaker for the mobo, so waiting for that.

Final update: It works! I apparently had either a bad monitor or bad display port cable. But using another monitor with DVI I was able to finally get it to fully boot!

I am not sure what got the fans to eventually work, maybe just a cable was jostled.

I really appreciate all the advice! I definitely know a lot more and feel better equipped to do things with it now.
