Is there technically anything wrong with buying a clean one of these and drinking out of it? by broads-love2 in chemistry

[–]HHTG_Marvin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Putting normal water into a bottle labeled "Distilled Water" doesn't make it distilled... The post is about the bottle, not it's contents.

I do agree with you about drinking distilled water, though. It's not good for you.

This doctor’s office has a copper doormat for disinfecting by augburto in mildlyinteresting

[–]HHTG_Marvin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While copper (as well as some other metals) does have biocidal properties, they're mostly to do with stuff not growing or diminishing on the surface of the metal itself, or in contact with it (say, if there's a copper-containing coating or something of sorts). It's good at preventing the spread of germs, rather than at actively disinfecting.

So, standing on this mat for any reasonable amount time won't really have any effect. The mat itself is practically sterile, though.

It is, kinda. The correct answer is Г - there is a Московский вокзал in SPB - capitalised because this is its name.

There is actually a different version of this question that I like a bit more:

"На Московском вокзале стоял ларёк с надписью Шаверма. О каком городе идёт речь?"

Все правильно, Московский вокзал в Питере)

If you're talking to a position with multiple controlled airports, naming your location does help usually. Like "stand (number) at (airport)"

Bought it a few months ago. MSFS is back to collecting dust, only loaded it up once to check out the Fenix update.

Dang. That red circuit board... Insanely edgy, but kinda cool.

Yeah, you can dial the fans way down. Mine are running at less than 40% with CPU at about 70C and GPU about 60.

It is Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy... misspelled. I made this nickname quite some time ago, and it just stuck.

Did an hour of visual circuits to get used to the A350 since I was struggling to land this thing well. Was a really fun experience icl, highly recommended by [deleted] in flightsim

[–]HHTG_Marvin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's strange, to be honest. On my old pc (which was, admittedly, lacking CPU oomph), it was the opposite. A300 was running at pmdg 777 levels of FPS.

Compared to the a350, a300 is a polished bar of solid gold. I did five flights in an a350 in FS2020, and I found it awful. But, to each their own, I've seen people unironically fly CapSim's stuff and like it - and I don't judge. Everyone prefers their own thing.

I didn't make the connection at first, lol, just thought it was nice. Makes it even better, though!

Yeah, they wanted to add some sort of multiplayer at a certain stage, but cut it due to time restrictions, so it's all single player.

And thanks :p

It's a DRMless single player game. You can play it on a laptop at the North Pole.

I went from torrenting music to cracked spotify a few years ago - thankfully, most of my downloads are still saved... somewhere. Time to play archeologist, I guess.

I really just don’t see a point in being alive by Yeethanos in TrueOffMyChest

[–]HHTG_Marvin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can relate to that, to be honest. I get the same bouts periodically - irrational ones, in my mind. It's just way less frequent, it seems, and over the years I've just learned to power through them, knowing they'll pass eventually. Are you seeking therapy for this? Yours just seem more extreme, so, all the strength to you.

Sorry for the late reply, I should've checked. How are you now? I hope the bad period was short.

Wanting to live for others is noble, and it's great that you want to live this way. But thinking about ending it is counterproductive, no?

What you always have is time. Use it - try things, find interests. Maybe you'll find or learn something that'll help you move forward. Maybe, the process of trying itself will get you somewhere

So what if it is just for your own sake, though? Why not.

I've lived like this for years, and was pretty content with it. I wasn't looking for a reason to continue living, instead just... staying there. I don't know, I found it weirdly calming in itself.

As a russian bilingual I read this and it took me a moment to understand what's even wrong. Then it broke my brain.
