I might check out some of the food, but the odds are pretty high that I won’t like it. So I’m probably safe.

It’s not a virtue if it’s just normal. Trying to repress normal things and pretend they don’t exist, and then getting mad anytime you still manage to see them is just a way of life that is going to lead to constantly being angry.

When my siblings and I were kids, our parents considered themselves christian and we went to church. But as we grew up, we all stopped believing, and we convinced our parents to stop too. I don’t generally want to convince most religious people to stop, but we were kids at the time and didn’t really know the ramifications of disillusioning our parents. If religious people can believe in “heaven”(or equivalent) and think they are going there, it’s a really nice thought that I don’t want to take away from them. But people that use religion to hurt people, yeah I kind of want to take it away from them. I guess like anything else in life, if you are using it to be nice and constructive, cool. If you are using it to hurt people, take it away.

The real version of death kind of sucks. It honestly kind of physically hurts/feels bad to even think about ceasing to exist permanently. I feel like that has always been the true purpose and main point of religion. Pretending death is absolutely anything else other than what it really is. I don’t want to take that aspect away from anyone.

Yeah, on most models made in the last 5 years or so. Specifically for people with vision or partial hearing loss. But of course the ones that make fake engine sounds are also largely for the specific drivers those EVs are targetted at. They also tend to play them inside the cabin too. The fake engine sounds are pretty terrible though, like videogames from 20+ years ago.

Most EVs actually play sounds already. Just older ones wouldn’t now. My brother set his to a spaceship sound. But you can pick normal sounds too, like various style ICE engine sounds.

Nowadays, it is exactly as complex as it sounds. There is a ton of blending, pitch and playrate tweaking, separate modifiers for current rpm and how much the accelerator is currently depressed. And yeah, like hundreds of recorded samples from the real car when possible, or a similar sounding car when not possible.

We are probably on the verge of getting to a point where a rough simulation might soon be able to take over for this process. It won’t sound as good for a while still, but it will be cheaper and faster soon. And as time goes on, it’ll get close enough to sounding right while continuing to decrease in cost and time taken to a point where it’ll be the only way to do it eventually

Well, you got the answers you were looking for, here is a different answer. To your other implied question, how to not worry about dust getting in other holes.

Main thing is to develop positive air pressure. You want more powered intake than powered exhaust.

Use fans for all your filtered air intakes, ignore powered air exhaust, run it at lower fan speeds if you can. Air will get out fine. If you force the air in where you want it to go in, dust will only go into the easily removable filters, it won’t be on your components. Any extra hole in the case will just be exhausting the already filtered air. Then just remember to actually check and clean your filters. That’s the hard part. But if you clean them when they need to be cleaned, you will never have to actually clean the inside or the fans or components or anything else, just the filters.

Makes sense.

Ah, I thought populous was more popular than that. I guess it was just popular in my friend group at the time. Would have been populous 1 and 2 we were playing, I didn’t even know a third one came out. I guess the most recent god game would be Godus, developed by peter molyneux’s current company. Essentially a modern sequel to populous 1 and 2. I haven’t actually tried it yet, last I looked it was still in beta or early access or something. And it looks like that makes sense as it apparently has been in early access for over 10 years… it seems decently high rated, but that is kind of concerning none the less.

Almost all of them. I rarely finish a game. For a variety of reasons, all added together. The closer I get to the end, the more I want to put it off if I’m enjoying a game, so I will keep finding more and more nuanced stuff to do instead. A new game comes out and I eventually completely forget one of the 10 games I’m currently actively playing when it temporarily becomes 11, then back down to 10. My friends stop playing a game, but my character relied on them… maybe I’ll just start over with a character that can solo. Maybe that game will just go on the pile of “not today, but I’ll play it soon”, until it’s been in the pile so long that there isn’t much point anymore.

I should mention I am autistic and likely adhd but I haven’t got that diagnosed yet. So while some of this is probably normal behaviours, some of it probably isn’t too.

Yeah, but at least they’re finally moving up relative to other countries. They don’t usually do that. Hopefully it isn’t indicative of them standing still and the other countries they passed just getting worse, lol.

Hmm, I guess I must have already blocked a decent amount of the places the negative stuff is coming from. I still use /all and I have a pretty good mix of positive stuff and the other stuff.

He literally didn’t lie, dumb people misunderstood a thing. Go back and look at the post yourself. Don’t just get a second hand opinion of it from a dumb person.

If their lives are artificially shortened by one specific condition, why not let them live to what would otherwise be their natural life span? If they could live to 30, it’s not like they would be the equivalent of on their death bed for the last 15 years. They are robbed of what would otherwise be healthy years by this.

No life span increase is ever about how many more deathbed years you get, they are about how many more healthy years you get before having the same amount of time on your death bed later.

There are plenty examples that racism isn’t dead, this isn’t one of them, you interpreted it incorrectly.

Wait, why ignoring the movies? Doesn’t that also hold true of the movies? I still like Jem and the holograms too though.

Well, they detected destroyed versions of the virus in pasteurized milk, so unless something else destroyed them before the pastuerization would have done so, there is a chance raw milk would have live virus in it. But it is certainly possible something else was responsible for destroying it before it got into the milk. I sure wouldn’t take the chance myself, it’s already a pretty bad idea to drink raw milk without this added.

That’s just a bunch of big science words for “exotic”, doesn’t exotic milk sound delicious? I’ll drink my wild and untamed milk that is free from all the rules society uses to make it boring and safe. And since even I’m not sure if this is coming across sarcastic, /s. And for good measure, /poe’s.

Thousands of videos exist of that too. We don’t have to guess what happened, we know how many of them were not peaceful. We also know what their goals were and how close they got to achieving them.

Just like all the video analysis and the physical evidence at these scenes tell us how peaceful they indeed were.

Speaking of video footage, have you recently rewatched footage of the jan 6 riots, even stuff they released themselves that they thought was showing themselves in a positive light at the time…

It kind of sucks that having literal video proof of how it all went down doesn’t actually matter. They just say whatever they want, and so many people will never look into it, just take their word.
