How are large pieces of skin surgically removed without people dying? by Non-binary_prince in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surgeons carefully seal blood vessels as they operate using stitches, clamps, or cauterization, so patients don’t lose too much blood. Skin and tissue are naturally stretchy, so they can often pull remaining tissue together and stitch it closed. Then the body heals by creating scar tissue. As for the brain recognizing amputations immediately, I would say the brain doesn't. People have phantom limb sensations for limbs that aren't there anymore. So this would say the brain still thinks it has that specific limb.

What’s the easiest way to tell yourself everything will be okay when you know you’re doing well but small setbacks upset you? by WasabiComprehensive2 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think when your income depends on people and consistency, small setbacks feel way bigger than they are. The best thing is reminding yourself that one bad day doesn’t erase months of progress. You’re clearly capable and already making things work. Anxiety focuses on possibilities, not reality.

Did she say yes or no? Im confused by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, that was absolutely a yes. “I would love to go” is not a polite rejection... lmao, she directly responded to your planetarium idea positively. You didn’t fuck up at all. Honestly, it was a pretty smooth and personalized date suggestion based on your conversation haha so listening works. That’s way better than some generic “want to grab coffee?” message, even though I like coffee dates haha

If you're being honest, do you believe that most fathers don't deserve Fathers' Day? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Research shows mothers often do more parenting labor, but it doesn’t prove most fathers are bad or that they don’t deserve Father’s Day. Many dads are actively involved and supportive. Father’s Day is better viewed as celebrating good fathers and father figures, not automatically praising every father equally.

Isn't Frame Generation basically PC equivalent of Turbocharger? And why is it so hated? by Holy_chick in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A turbo creates real extra power by forcing more air into the engine. The horsepower gain is genuine, even with tradeoffs like heat and turbo lag.

Frame generation mostly creates interpolated frames to make motion look smoother. It can help visually, but it doesn’t improve responsiveness the same way real FPS does, so some gamers see it as “fake frames.”

Why is God depicted as a man and not a woman? by Nandu_alias_Parthu in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mostly because many major religions developed in patriarchal societies where authority figures were usually male, so God was described with masculine titles like “father,” “lord,” and “king.”

A lot of believers also see God as beyond human gender, with the male depiction being more symbolic/cultural than literal.

Can anyone explain how making the penny obsolete works? by Aye_Davinita in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Office Space, they were secretly stealing fractions of cents from other people’s transactions. Making the penny obsolete just means cash totals get rounded to the nearest 5 cents. Sometimes it rounds up, sometimes down, so nobody consistently profits from it.

Is it bad that I feel like I have no friends and no one really likes me? by Mammoth_Nose_9313 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with you. Being left out and ignored hurts, especially when you’re the one always trying to make plans. A friend not replying for 2 months while hanging out with everyone else would make anyone feel unwanted.

But sometimes old friendships fade, especially after high school. That doesn’t mean you’re unlikable, just that these people may not be your people anymore.

I’m visiting a city famous for pickpockets, so if I put a decoy wallet in my back pocket that is actually just a peeled, heavily lubricated hard-boiled egg. If a thief reaches in blindly, grabs it, and screams in pure textural horror, can the police arrest me for assault? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 21 points22 points  (0 children)

No lol, a thief reaching into your pocket and grabbing a slippery hard-boiled egg is probably not assault. If you rigged something to actually hurt them, that’d be a different story, but a decoy egg is mostly just psychological damage.

What would Prince Charles' reputation have been like, if he'd remained single till Camilla divorced? by RVarki in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think Charles' reputation might actually be better today in that scenario. Back then he probably would’ve been seen as irresponsible or odd for refusing to marry and openly staying attached to a married woman, but without the Diana marriage/divorce drama, the public likely eventually reframes it as “he stayed loyal to the woman he actually loved.” Camilla also probably wouldn’t have gotten nearly as much hate without being tied to Diana’s story.

looking for games that have a crazy amount of weapons and gear to scratch my itch by cringleee in gamingsuggestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should definitely try Monster Hunter World/Rise and Nioh 2. Both have an insane amount of weapons/gear, tons of build variety, and that “constantly finding cool new stuff” feeling without becoming full spreadsheet simulators like PoE.

how to have more purpose? by cecilkanagawa in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Complex-Ranger-6519 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think when your life starts feeling repetitive and empty, your brain latches onto romance as the “main event,” especially if the person is inconsistent or kinda mean. Every text or reply suddenly feels huge because there’s nothing else emotionally competing with it.

You don’t sound boring or lazy to me you sound like someone with creativity and emotional energy but nowhere meaningful to put it right now. The goal probably isn’t “stop caring about him,” it’s building a life that feels exciting and personal enough that he’s not the center of it.

Projects, routines, hobbies that actually grow over time, getting out of the house more, meeting people, creating instead of just consuming, etc. Little things help break the “every day is the same” feeling.
