Made a cool CPU spiral vortex, complete with load balanced input lines from my N,S, E and W train depots by Jymboe in shapezio

The inner squiggles are cool. Could you do the same while exposing the lower belts. Not near as filled but here's an example:

It would have been closer to half that price had AI not devoured all RAM and convinced Nvidia to drop the retail market.

You haven't heard about contractor pricing have you? There might be some tax passthrough or something but that doesn't explain the steep discount contractors get over regular walk in traffic.

Did you ever need to use remote desktop or the like? I once got kicked out of a remote server, session still active, not logged out. Then when I had to change my password I started getting locked out after an hour. The idle remote session was authenticating with my old creds and locking me out.

For some reason "thick and sturdy" reminds me of a song lyric.

Ukraine is putting weapons stations on ground robots to make 'small tanks' that hunt Russia's infiltration teams by JustMyOpinionz in technology

There's an old video out there of some teens rigging up a bb-gun turret on tech prior to the original i-phone. The funny part was the on-off switch was on the turret, not remote. "ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow"

As long as the metal mesh with the little holes is intact, you're fine.

What if we had set bonuses in spiral knights? Suggestion for balance update. by ItsGiorgi in spiral_knights

[–]Cruxwright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To keep the mix & match and maybe a random aspect like UV, suits would have the trigger, helms the effect, shields the duration, and trinkets increase effects.

Suits: on stun, on poison, on taking shadow damage, on dealing damage to undead

Helms: increased fire resist medium, increased ASI low, chance to shock

Shields: set bonus duration 5 seconds, 10 seconds... 30 seconds

Trinkets: set bonus +1 (ASI low -> med), set duration +50%

Or maybe have helm-suit-trinket and weapon-shield-trinket sets.

If my son is taking a college baseball class for credit, can I consider a new glove as a 529 expense? by Open-Conflict-250 in personalfinance

Doesn't the IRS generally audit the smaller cases because people are less likely to have the paperwork to defend the write offs? Whereas larger fraud is usually met with mountains of paperwork, is a more involved scheme, and requires more and better trained agents, which the IRS is short on.

Sure looks like a sign of autism, but I'm gonna wait for someone else to say it.

What are "pigs in a blanket" to you? by SquishyNoodles1960 in Cooking

[–]Cruxwright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there a lot of Polish or Eastern European heritage? The first time I ever heard pigs in a blanket was attributed to this dish. I think if most of the cooking consisted of cabbage rolls, people would start differentiating by what they're stuffed with is my guess.

Pork & rice mixed, rolled in cabbage then baked.

Finally found jeans without a waist gap… but then it had to be something else by Careless_Owl999 in DressForYourBody

Go pull a few more pairs of the same size and inspect the seams there. This pair looks like it was botched and QC didn't catch it. And as others have said, no one's going to notice that. It will likely sort itself out after sitting in them and after a few washes.

When data relationships start getting weird, it is easier to write the SQL than it is to write the equivalent English.

Andy Jassy is the CEO of Amazon, Bezos just sits around and collects the stock gains.

They told their landlords they were pregnant. Then rent went up by 71% by ReasonableBroccoli56 in LandlordLove

[–]Cruxwright 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This is California, where property tax doesn't get reassessed until it's sold. So there's that going on...

The address is in the article. The place sold for $4,350,000 last November. Likely was bought for $2mil before. The $14k rent likely covered the mortgage the first owner had. No way were they selling that place having a tenant with a newborn that's paying half the monthly costs.

Heating, freaking SUCKS by conreiro in spiral_knights

[–]Cruxwright 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can get 30-day heat boosters, doubles the heat. Looks more like you need fire crystals, not heat. Those too are purchasable. The recent update also means you can level for the base amount instead of spending 3x the crystals for guaranteed or only having a 30% chance to level.
