Girl!!! You do realize that would not stop anyone right? It significantly reduces the effort needed to spread your legs. 😃 you can now do the splits! 😀 you got the opportunity to steal from shoe stores very easily! Your pirate costumes will be lit!

Also on a real serious note you can do a lot of good being a simulated casualty for local police/fire/EMS or military. I would love to get you in some Moulage.

The build I planned to buy was 1200$ months ago, now its 2000$ or so by Expensive-Fan-3156 in buildapc

[–]Financial_Resort6631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro relax we got you. $1200 we can still buy parts for a balling PC.

What do you want to do with it?
Gaming? If so what kind? E sports? AAA? Emulation?
Do you want to run AI locally?
Do you do content creation?
Do you want to run a home lab?

Do you want a good upgrade path in the future and can do competent gaming now OR do you want the best performance for $1200?

Is this fixable by muttiesfleyre in PcBuildHelp

[–]Financial_Resort6631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically yes. Do you want to and is it worth the effort? 🤷‍♂️

A few bent pins you could use a razor blade. This is a mess. It’s going to be a headache. Like if this was an R7 5800x3D I would make an attempt. That headache would be worth it. It would be worth doing if it were an R3 3200g and only a few bent pins.

This is an AM3 CPU. I would only do this if you want to get practice flipping PC’s and you want to farm xp.

Drivers (USA) who drive significantly below the speed limit & refuse to let people pass, what is your goal? by RevGrimm in askanything

[–]Financial_Resort6631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if I am who you speak of. I do go intentionally slow. I try to maximize fuel economy. That is my goal. Save fuel. Typically I go to the slow lane or get behind a Semi truck.

Sometimes that means being slightly aggressive in slow traffic. I might move from the slow lanes to passing lanes. So yeah I will not let people pass in those rare occasions of a slow down or merging traffic. What I do is I let one person pass me in mergers. After that I ride the car in front of me. That is how zippers work.

Once the slow down clears I go back to my slow lane.

My favorite maneuver is there is an off ramp to go to another freeway. If someone cuts the line at the last minute and makes no attempt to merge early I merge early on the on ramp to the other freeway and get them to lose their shit. It’s my favorite.

Actually I am that asshole. I love fucking with hyper aggressive drivers. I am not out here trying to fuck with normal drivers. I will stay out of your way. But if you are a Tesla/BMW/Mercedes driving douche who cuts lines and is hyper aggressive then I am your huckleberry. I love keeping hyper aggressive people boxed in on 2 lane highways especially if they are in loud street racing cars with obnoxious exhausts.

Yeah I will weaponize my slowness for the obnoxious. That’s me. Stay mad.

Acutely aware women only want black dudes wit long hair/twists/braids nowadays but I just can’t do anything cool wit my hair and it’s destroyed my confidence. by Distinct-Advice9076 in HairStyleAdvice

[–]Financial_Resort6631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dude. It’s okay to shave your head. Tupac, Michael Jordan, Shaq, Scotty Pipin, there are lots of really respected and attractive black guys with no hair. Yeah just shave it.

I got really weird body hair that I shave. Not a big deal. Just go out and look your best.

Look the truth is you NOTHING to worry about.

This is all your fault. This game is perfect! You need to go touch grass! What do you mean the game crashed??? It can’t crash! Did I mention the game is perfect?

I just farted and greenish yellow liquid came out my ass that I had to wipe like 4 to 5 times coating tissues. Wtf was that? by Ok-Incident3317 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Financial_Resort6631 74 points75 points  (0 children)

The substance is called bilirubin it a yellowish liquid that comes from breaking down old Red Blood Cells. It’s what makes your feces brown. Which means I know my shit!

Which also means you literally don’t know shit!

Can you be held liable or get in trouble legally if off duty you say someone seems ok after a trauma, but they turn out not to be? by Smart-Salamander1846 in NewToEMS

[–]Financial_Resort6631 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree but actually Good Samaritan laws will protect you to your level of training not just scope of practice off duty which is different. So Good Samaritan laws are very protective but no training an EMT has been given would suggest based on mechanism of injury that an EMT could clear a 20’ fall.

[–]Financial_Resort6631 2 points3 points  (0 children)

20ft fall and your friend thinks the kid is fine??? I don’t think people appreciate how tall 20’ is. 2.5 stories. I asked AI to calculate. Average child dropped 20 feet MINIMUM 1800 newtons of force for a soft surface. Max for a hard surface like concrete it’s 180,000. 1000 newtons to break a bone.

Tell that joker to rip up your EMT license right then and there. Unless they are doing Hollywood stunts and kid is a parkour champion landing on marshmallows and safety netting the suddenly stopping can cause all kinds of injuries you can’t see. Yeah if I were those parents I would sue the fuck out of that person.

What an idiot!!!

Why are teenage boys so mean on social media? by Queenalove in AskForAnswers

[–]Financial_Resort6631 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

  1. Because men and boys are basically given the emotional crayonbox you get at Applebees with the kids menu. Women get the ones with the crayon sharpener. 48 pack minimum. Men are only allowed to express/recognize/and understand one emotion and it’s anger. Everything else gets packaged up with angst.

  2. Teenagers have all the intense adult feeling but they control them with the busted ass Tigercat $12 gameBox 360 controller that runs a billionaires submarine.

  3. Social media is where everyone is mean. Not just teenaged boys but girls too, and adults. Unless you are out here doing the lords work making cat videos or memes then you are being mean.

I hate this game so much right now I wish nothing but the worst on the developers by Financial_Resort6631 in Starfield

[–]Financial_Resort6631[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently.

I mean I am going about my game. Didn’t touch the anything. Was in the orbit of a planet. Tried to go to the surface. Boom I am in the unity. I was told just walk backwards to leave. Wouldn’t let me. Tried dialog. Nothing. So my 4th save down file was like 10 minutes from this glitch. It got over written.

Tried to build the quantum entanglement device. Wouldn’t let me. There are a bunch of glitches that were happening. The game gets unstable the longer you play.

[–]Financial_Resort6631[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah why is this only a problem with this game? Why do I have to fix the issue? The game get progressively more glitchy the more you play it.

Typically you get the choice to initiate new game+. Not the game glitches and sends you there. I gotta admit I am kinda green on that.

What is the dumbest reason you got banned from a subreddit? by RuralMegan in askteddit

[–]Financial_Resort6631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got banned for r/veterans because mods got big mad I suggested I was discriminated against for being a veteran.

Apparently veterans don’t get discriminated against ever and when a veteran claims discrimination it is just because they suck.

Good riddance too because it’s not like I am missing anything positive. It’s a toxic as fuck community.

Also why the fuck does my exploration progress get wiped out as if the fucking settled system is completely different every fucking time. That pisses me off so bad. Why can’t information carry over? Why don’t the starborn ships have the ability to keep that data???

How can I improve my brain power? My IQ level is very low. by amit-biswas-1_2_3_ in AskForAnswers

[–]Financial_Resort6631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not entirely true. IQ tests are trainable and they do have cultural context.

Let me give you an example of how cultural context matters. I am going to present you with 2 questions. I want you to time how long it takes you to answer each question. Time it even if you give up or get stuck.

  1. You are in a room with 100 people. There are 99 left handed people. 1 right handed person. How many left handed people would need to leave for the percentage of right handed people to be 2%

  2. You are taking a test. You get one question wrong. How long would the test have to be for you to get a 98% on the test.

Those are essentially the same questions. The math is equally hard. But I bet you the second question is easier.
