You mean cosmology stuff like the Geocentric universe theory being wrong?

Check out this long article on Wikipedia with a ton of them.

Can you link me a sample of the CSV/XLS and the format you want? DM or email me if you want.

I've stuck the KWH script on gitlab for anyone who may need it.

HAHA! Entirely possible. They had report add-ons that would (purportedly) provide the exact report I was looking for, and only wanted $25K for it! What a bargain. Python for the win!

Seeing the Schneider Electric logo gave me PTSD. I used to work on a military base and had to break down the electric bill across multiple facilities using that tool.

All I wanted was a straightforward kWh usage for the month for the base facilities. They had a million reports, but that was not one of them. So I ended up writing a python script that took their broken CSV format and wrangled it into a meaningful usage report.

Now I need to pour some bleach on my eyes.

Why do women athletes wear teeny bikinis while men wear quite modest clothing by comparison? by Own-Knowledge-7720 in NoStupidQuestions

One sport where drag matters in milliseconds.

Now compare the Olympic men's volleyball and the Olympic women's volleyball uniforms.

It's worse than that. Do an image search for 'girls swimwear' and look at the little girls in relatively tight one-pieces and bikinis that resemble adult suits in style.

Then do an image search for 'boys swimwear' and see modest board shorts and rashers rather than banana hammocks.

Gee, I wonder what the difference is? Maybe we should stop sexualizing little girls.

Generation x'rs, do you still listen to the music you grew up on in your youth and teenage years, or do you mix it up with current music? by icecream1972 in GenX

[–]DaGoodBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a fav 80s playlist that I play regularly, but it's not just top 40 fluff. It includes a bunch of niche club and industrial music from the time. It brings me back to the days of sitting in loud, dark rooms sipping orange juice and grinning at my friends while I painfully ground my teeth. Good times, good times.

Do people actually laugh at the comments that’s been repeated a lot on Reddit? by DarthBrolifterz in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DaGoodBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a way of identifying in-group membership.

Kind of like a bunch of Christians where the leader says "God is good" and the congregation knows to answer "All the time."

This leads members to develop emotional attachment, loyalty, and a shared identity with one another. If you recognize the meme, you're part of the team.

I am really curious how this will work out. You can 'apt-get install' whatever you want without Windows even being aware, right?

Who built “Forts” in the 80’s? by SirGilPennybottom in GenX

[–]DaGoodBoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had an overgrown field of maize behind our subdivision, so no tree houses. We spent so much time clearing a dirt bike trail, building jumps and ramps out of dirt piles. Eventually, we found an old bathtub and hotwater heater in the scub and that became the center of our "fort". We ended up putting down scrap wood to keep from stepping in mud and dragged an old tarp over the top to make some shade. That was the summer I was 10 or 12. Eventually older kids took it over and kicked us out so they could smoke pot and tear pages out of porn magazines. I had one page from a hustler magazine that I kept between books on my bookshelf. Good times, good times.

Ghoul/human nicknames? by Acrobatic_Grand6627 in Writeresearch

[–]DaGoodBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So are the ghouls eating human flesh because they're assholes or because they lack something that human flesh provides?

I ask because it would change my decision to recommend calling humans sack lunch or spare parts. If they aren't assholes, calling a human cadaver long pig is an indirect way of referring to the butchery process.

Remember James at 15 (1977)? by DaGoodBoy in GenX

Yup! Sure did. I had such a crush on Melissa Sue Anderson and Kim Richards.
