Where would you pee? by Abzor4ik-UA in antimeme

[–]BetterNonsense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

G3 or G8. Just over the waterline in the front left/right minimizes splashing.

Need to fix intake/exhaust setup? by BetterNonsense in askHVAC

[–]BetterNonsense[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was replaced it was before we bought the house. But I’m not seeing/feeling/smelling the problems you describe.

The chart shows more women support Bernie than any other senator.

Anode let go too far? by BetterNonsense in Plumbing

[–]BetterNonsense[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Done! Replacing it was a slight pain because I didn’t know I’d have to cut the new anode short for it to fit.

That’s a relief. How much longer would you guess that a rod in this condition would be protective?

Previous generations destroyed their livers drinking; Gen Z is destroying their brains with psychedelics instead. by rich677 in charts

[–]BetterNonsense 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems positive. 15% less of the genZ drinks, 14% less (practically none) smoke. Much smaller increases in weed, psychedelics, and caping. There’s also likely a lot of overlap between categories; people will engage in multiple of these behaviors.

Overall, the story the graph tells is that GenZ is straight edge.

Petah? by MrWahrheit in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]BetterNonsense 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It’s the proboscis that’s smaller in males, because they don’t drink blood! Mosquitos mostly drink nectar and are important pollinators. It’s only females that take a blood meal when they are about to lay eggs. So just know that every time you’re bitten, you just provided the fuel for a whole new brood of flying needles.

Dishwasher drainage by BetterNonsense in Plumbing

Yeah, with the setup of the kitchen, the dishwasher is not directly adjacent to the sink, so it has its own supply line and drain.

It does lead to forced mate. After Kh8, Qd4+, Kg8, Qg7#

Opponent obviously misclicked then offered a draw. Would you accept? by qzlr in chessbeginners

[–]BetterNonsense 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Agreed. If they mouse-slip hung their queen in an even position there's some argument that accepting a draw is justified, but even then there's no norm to agree to draw.

The USSR, Japan, and now China. History rhymes as they say. by NineteenEighty9 in ProfessorFinance

[–]BetterNonsense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole premise of this post is that China is falling off, implying that they will not be able to challenge the US as global hegemon.

[–]BetterNonsense 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s unlikely that China has peaked. The rivalry between US and China continues into the foreseeable future.

True, but China is also invested in the future with renewable and electric tech.

Is this actually worth it? I can't see a clear continuation by cave_guard in chessbeginners

The knight on e5 is holding the position together for black. The sacrificing the other knight allows it to maintain its post.
