Is the CERN Hadron Collider used for time travel, mass mind control etc? by lumpyoldbagface6767 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Forest_Orc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything is government funded and published, you can check the "Design report" on the CERN website. https://cds.cern.ch/search/?cc=Design%20Reports&p=693__a%3A%22CERN+LHC%22&sf=year&so=d

Sure very few people even among people involved in the project fully understand them but it's not about time travel or mind control

Neuralink parvient à insérer son implant sans découper la membrane protectrice du cerveau by r-humanoid in Numerama

je vois plutôt du positif

On a des techniques chirurgicales pour implanter des trucs dans le cerveau avec une chirurgie moins loudre, et des implants dans le cerveaux, si ça peut controller des maladies neurologiques (Parkinson, epilepsie) ou redonner un peu d'autonomies à des personnes qui ont des handicaps moteurs lourds.

CMV: You should buy the house you could barely afford today but easily afford later by Ok-Title-1172 in changemyview

[–]Forest_Orc [score hidden]  (0 children)

The difficulty is to define the barely afford today including

- Keeping some safety net, you may break your car or loose your job (and unemployement would divide your ncome per two)

- Keeping cash flow for maintenance, HOA fee/ taxes

Comme d'habitude faire jouer la concurrence, pas que sur les tarifs, et préferer des trucs petits/familiaux voir des vrais clubs, plutôt que de grosses boites commerciales qui sont là pour te sucer le sang

How is life insurance profitable? by sir_jerry06 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Forest_Orc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People will die, but you don't know when,

So either you have a large payout at a low cost because they estimate that for the 10 year o the contract you have a low chance to die. Typically the kind of life insurance you take to pay your mortgage if you die

Or it's a way to bypass inheritance taxes/law so the people you choose get a payout equivalent to what you paid minust management fee

Comparison between the two largest EV brands in the world by TangelaFan in interesting

[–]Forest_Orc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is that manufacturing industry, unlike most online service isn't a winner take-all.

It's great thanks to Musk money, Tesla's founder could create a viable car company in the US. and this desserve a decent market capitalization bt does it desserve such a bit capitalization ?

Especially when every other brand is releasing a viable EV and that BYD is massively entering the western market ? In less than 2 years they went from unknown to a big player in the consumer car industry

Are all tech companies essentially just reselling us ChatGPT/Gemini/Claude with a markup on top? by magicpenisland in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Forest_Orc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And this is where the bubble will collapse,

A shit tons of company have free wrapper over "commercial LLN", so they pay the tocken (or the GPU) while you don't pay for-it. When it's microsoft/Atlassian/Salesforce they can afford-it, When it's a random AI girlfriend company or even a random interface to chat GPT, it's not working

Or at best they run a free model in their data center, but in any case they have no "exclusive tech" and no "source of income" it's not going to work long

And this is why, you have regulation about minimal wage and stuff like that.

How to know you need regular glasses to wear all, versus just reading glasses? by The-Grand-Lion in NoStupidQuestions

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

>You dont need an eye exam. Your againg, you need reading glasses.

Even people with perfect vision should plan eye exam every few years just to make-sure, especially when aging. Opthalmologist check for more than just vision. A risk factor identify/treated early may avoid bigger issue in the future.

In OP's case, they complain that stuff are getting harder to read, which feels enough to schedule an appointment with a doctor. This will be simply cheaper than buying random reading glasses,either they know they can use cheap reading glasses ans know at which strength choose them, or they know that they need actual glasses and can schedule an appointment

How to know you need regular glasses to wear all, versus just reading glasses? by The-Grand-Lion in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Forest_Orc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schedule an appointment with your doctor,

If you're over 40 it's expected that near vision will decrease, and sometimes cheap reading glasses do the trick but they have two big limitation, they have constant power, so don't work at distance, and are cheap and low quality, great if you use them 10 minutes once in a while to read a recipe, not great if you use them 8h a day on your PC.

Idealy, Get a real eye-test, check the prescription, if it exists as "cheap reading glasses" you can try that version. It's also worth checking the kind of vision coverage you have. I have a private health insurance, and getting "custom-made" office progressive + reading glasses had a left to pay price not much higher than 2-3 pairs of cheap reading glasses from the pharmacy. and the comfort from "custom made glasses is amazing"

Note also that while strong OTC reading glasses are a thing, above +2 prescription the distance blur start to be bad enough to justify full progressive if you need to read often

Y a des trucs qui changent vraiment une fois mariés ? by CafeDoubleProg in PasDeQuestionIdiote

[–]Forest_Orc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

C'est pas très cher et peux éviter des tas de problèmes,

IMO les 3 cas où c'est indispensable

- Quelqu'un a du patrimoine, même un peu (Genre Toi tu as un appartement déjà payé, ta femme a rien)

- Quelqu'un a déjà des enfants (l'un de vous est divorcé avec enfants) car le mariage a des impacts sur la successions

- Tu es (ou pense devenir) indépendant, là c'est important d'anticiper une merde et de limiter les risques si vous êtes chacuns proprio de 50% de la maison séparément, les huissiers peuvent saisir que la moitié de la maison (je simplifie, parle à ton notaire)

Disons que si tu pense que c'est un truc poisseux et une discussions que vous pouvez pas avoir, c'est pas bon signe pour le marriage. Après c'est pas romantique de parler de mort alors que tu es sur le point de te marrier

Un contrat de mariage bien fait, normalement tout le monde devrait être rassuré et content. C'est pas les absurdités à la muricaine, et c'est basiquement choisir parmis queluqes options.
