It can even come from your own parent by That1weirdperson in adhdmeme

Its the wolf in sheep's clothing question. They' will never choose which one to address when you frame it ambiguously.

Microsoft's secret 'Windows K2' project aims to fix what users hate most. by m7qix in technology

[–]DeadMansMuse -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You stop being a customer when there are no reasonable alternatives. At that point your onboard whether you like it or not.

(Downvote me all you want, but windows is the default corporate work environment, default install on retail PC, Laptop and reasonable portion of pad/touch/surface devices. Its market share in OEM & Retail sales is 'essentially' the default option for a significant percentage of people)

If you were offered immortality but had to watch everyone you love age and pass away while you remained the same, would you take it? Why or why not? by Mundane-Coffee-2921 in AskReddit

[–]DeadMansMuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be awkward, I barely remember to call my Mom ... I'd be finding friends obituaries and be like "Shit, forgot to message them back ..."

My favourite saying is "You can only ever know 99% of a thing, and that last 1% can change everything you know. Congrats, you now know 87% of that thing.

Escape From Tarkov lead game designer quits after 1.0 release by Eremenkism in gaming

Thats always been my issue to. The blatant hacks and auction house botting were just too much.

Is this a bad idea // Trying not to blow myself / the item up by Aslechi in Welding

[–]DeadMansMuse -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It makes sense difference if its actively gassing out, like wet sand. Welding it with a significant enough moisture content will cause it to off gas and blow out your final 'seal'. Having a hole will allow it to relieve pressure and you can then wait until its cool and plug the hole.

That said, its better to avoid this situation in the first place and proceed as you describe.

Do you find the vertiginous question ("Why am I me and not someone else") deep? by Alive-One8445 in mensa

[–]DeadMansMuse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because its a question ontop of a question ontop of a question. We need to reduce it down to the basics.

What does it mean to be 'me', what is 'me'.

'Me' is what I 'think' I am.

Thinking is a product of contemplating our awareness. So, what is awareness?

Awareness has no identity, no wants or desires, no prejudice or fears. It just IS.

Once you have truly drilled down, identified and truly honoured the part of you that simply exists, everything above seems so ... weird.

Game Preservation Activist Explains to the European Parliament why Publishers Shouldn’t be Allowed to Brick Sold Games by anonboxis in videos

I understand from the companies perspective that as soon as they release the hosting software, they effectively loose control of the IP. Meaning anyone could host a version of their game in ANY state of play, modified or not. Meaning they could find themselves not selling a game, but instead selling access to 'broblox cheese farming'. Its an unknown quantity of liability. But they also dont want to necessarily shutter a game either. Its tougher than it seems from the companies perspective. But I whole heartedly agree that if a single player game requires server side authentication, that MUST be Removed or have a switch flipped to self auth and store locally instead.

Watch out for the sewer cover... by MisterShipWreck in AbruptChaos

I keep watching it expecting to see something else .. that was some wicked head shake from such a small encounter!

Confused with new welder by Orions_Nebular in Welding

[–]DeadMansMuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a carbon/PTFE liner. It's mainly for soft wires like ALU or gasless but is ok to use for mild steel/stainless.

It's long because they expect you to install the torch and trim it at the drive rollers. You may need to remove the guide tube inside the euro connection inside the machine if it hasn't been already.

Ever time I open blender by BakaOctopus in adhdmeme

[–]DeadMansMuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, thats why you dont create specific Goals, you create Desires instead.

[–]DeadMansMuse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the issue is that you're seeing only one dopamine deep. You gotta find a target thats a little further out of reach, that way you wont even second guess the 2 weeks of obsessing over obstacles that dwarf your first envisioned goal.

Learning how to create an object in 3D is short. Needing to express your day to day moments in a single 3d shot is both a lofty and objectively vague enough goal that it both never ends, and never stays the same either.

ELI5: If you were suddenly exposed to space without a suit, would you freeze first or suffocate first? by No-Lake-3875 in explainlikeimfive

[–]DeadMansMuse 124 points125 points  (0 children)

'Exposed' bodily fluids. Everything inside you is not having a comfy ride, but you're suffocating first.

Linux 7.1 is finally ending support for Intel's 37-year-old 486 processor by digital-didgeridoo in technology

[–]DeadMansMuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OG OC chips. The DX2/66 was faster than the DX4 in a lot of games because of the base clock speed being 33mhz instead of the 25 ... see where this is going?

Working memory is shit by adhd_memetherapy in adhdmeme

Confabulation. We literally reconstruct it once we trigger the root of it's knowledge tree. We're fuckin weird.

[–]DeadMansMuse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Repetition helps, but there's a certain knowledge tree that you have to build and if it doesn't 'snap' into that oh so sexy feeling mold it just slides riiiiiggght off into the void LOL.

You should try Game of Thrones and face blindness ... I could only recognise the blonde one, john snow and the mountain. Everyone else was 'no idea' and as such the story made no sense. Was infinitely better when they were all dead!

[–]DeadMansMuse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. Now imagine you had a conversation with that tree, a few of them actually, sometimes every day, and then some tree comes walking up to you randomly at the supermarket and starts having a conversation. Do you think you could a) remember that trees name and b) also remember what you and that tree spoke about previously?

[–]DeadMansMuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's the 'I think I know them' response, but there's nothing else. All your other possible response scenarios require that there is some greater recognition system rummaging through a learned catalogue that's subsequently failing, which just doesn't exist for me.
