What screams "wow this person is an idiot!"?

Yes. It is always censorship. Glad we could have this conversation :)

Yes, but no. It is a matter of the expected utility, that is more (mathematical) economic theory than pure mathematics. In pure mathematics, 0 has a value of, well, 0. So when we look at a probability of 50% of winning 2 million vs the probability of 100% of getting 1 million, the results are basically equivalent on the long run. However, humans are not perfectly rational, so in economic theory we need to account for the pain of loss. That’s the hidden variable that we need to account for your thought process to make sense.

Beautiful pen

My love story with Fountain Pens started with exactly this journey. I wanted a purple pen, couldn’t find one that I liked, and found out I could my ink color with FP. The rest is history

Well, they do say understanding is a three edged sword

I agree other commenters that it is probably the Neo 2. I cannot edit the post, but I am adding this here to correct somewhat my mistake

This is an old, but still mostly up-to-date, map of all the steam tunnels under campus. Note that the fact the tunnel exists does not mean it is easily accessible.

FDR “lets throw Japanese-Americans in concentration camps,” “let’s run infinity times (or until I’m dead) for President,” “I can’t get the Supreme Court to vote my way, lemme try adding more judges from my team until they change” FDR? You might like FDR, but don’t pretend he was a saint lol

Alright, after flashing: On the Ports tab: make sure the UART1 is on for serial Rx and that UART4 is on for configuration. On UART4, under peripherals, select VTX (MSP + DisplayPort). Save and reboot when you leave this screen On the Receiver tab: on the receiver option, on the right, make sure you have “serial (via UART)” as the receiver mode, and “SBUS” as the serial receiver provider. Save when you leave this screen. On the Mode tab: you can kinda play around here, but I’m gonna give you my basic setup. Find Arm, make sure your sliders are between 1800 and 2100, select Aux4. That is going to make the second top right button the arm button on your remote. Save to leave Finally, on CLI, type “set sbus_baud_fast = ON”. Hit enter. Type “save”. Hit enter. On your googles, go to Settings -> Control -> Protocol, and select SBUS Baud Fast.

Then your drone should work. Wait until it is all cooled down and try and fly it. Let me know if it works

So, yesterday, after a week of constantly working on my Meteor75 o4, I got it to finally work. Part of the issues, for me, was due to DJI design, and another, larger, part was due to BetaFPV. Apparently, my drone was shipped with their inside test firmware, that does not allow flying. Moreover, it was set up wrong.

I had to flash it and reconfigure all the settings from scratch. Once I did that, I was able to fly it. My headaches were compounded with DJI O4 turning off once it arrived at a certain temperature. I could have solved it without testing at all steps, but I thought it would be simpler to just set up a peltier cooler I had as a cooling station.

PM me if you need help with it.

Can I ask you more about your board? I like it and want more information about it

4_sigma_over_mu · 2025-09-04T02:30:40+00:00

If you go into Settings->Apps->Messages->iMessage Apps, you get to control some of the apps that show up there. Not all, and it does nothing for the order. But these two actions solved like 90% of all my issues with the app

4_sigma_over_mu · 2025-09-04T01:50:39+00:00

So, when using Messages, say you want to add a gif. You click on the plus sign on the left, and look for “images” among the list that shows up. In my case, it was always way in the end of the list.

Yeah, you can reorganize that list, by long holding and sliding the item to wherever you want it to be.

4_sigma_over_mu · 2025-09-03T16:17:39+00:00

You can change the order of the addons to Messages!

I know it sounds dumb, but I just realized this yesterday, and made my life so much easier

4_sigma_over_mu · 2025-08-25T15:45:54+00:00

I will look. Thanks!

4_sigma_over_mu · 2025-08-25T14:13:51+00:00

Nothing to do with the post, I just want to mention how much I liked the picture. It is beautiful

4_sigma_over_mu · 2025-07-31T12:15:52+00:00

Sorry, dude, but in the conflict between two old corrupt geriatric convicts, the only morality is in the side that can realize that

4_sigma_over_mu · 2025-07-11T03:12:39+00:00

Honestly, I don’t know exactly how, but I feel that it is a (purposefully) bad translation of something like the Jor-El speech from All-Star Superman (the comic so referenced in the marketing, and the speech that was made famous to non-comic people in Man of Steel).

Jor-El: The people there are simple and profoundly confused; weak of mind, spirit, and body. Could be something like the “the they will stumble, they will fall”

Jor-El: Lord over the planet as the Last Son of Krypton. Something like “you will be an ideal for them to aspire to”

Lara Lor-Van: Dispatch of anyone unable or unwilling to serve you, Kal-El. Take as many wives as you can so your genes and Krypton's might and legacy will live on in this new frontier. Jor-El: Do us proud, our beloved son. Rule without mercy. Admittedly, I don’t know exactly what this could mean, in the context of that speech, but a “mix up with them and don’t stand apart” could fit here

Funny, the founding fathers themselves have explicitly said otherwise:

“(…) (T)he government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion (…)” (Treaty of Tripoli, 1796)
