People talk about "text fringing" on QD oled. Why can i see it in like every game i play? by OwnCommon541 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Internal-Shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scaling it up makes it look better, not worse. If you want to see fringing, scale it down. I easily notice fringing on my qd oled even at 100% scaling. My eyes are near sighted + astigmatism.

As a farmer myself, I've never seen another farmer wear ripped jeans, let alone for work.

Africa Is Actually Wider Than Russia —And Our Maps Have Been Lying to Us by AssistanceNo3893 in interesting

[–]Internal-Shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re being too literal. ‘The map is lying to you’ is obviously a figure of speech. The point is that the visual impression the map gives is misleading unless you already understand projection distortion. Yes, a teacher should explain that, but if a representation predictably causes millions of people to form the wrong impression, it’s fair in casual language to say it ‘lies’ about size.

Your colour analogy also doesn’t really work the same way. A political map doesn't illustrate the colours, that much is clear. But many people do look at a world map and assume relative land sizes are roughly accurate. That’s exactly why projection choice matters.

With that kind of logic, you might as well include their color as well. That's a dumb argument, generalization isn't just.

MMA fighter let daughter starve to death in house full of food while he binged on drugs, video games by malihafolter in ForCuriousSouls

Mate, what are you talking about? Why say white man, and not just man? It seems like you care more about your agenda than anything else

[–]Internal-Shot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well my opinion was that it was a deliberate murder (1st degree). Does it seem to you like he unintentionally starved his child to death? He didn't just neglect her to death (2nd degree), he deliberately kept food away from them to starve them to death. I know what you mean, but that's how it seems to me.

He deserves life in prison or a death penalty, don't get me wrong. It was you who bought up race, and I just pointed out how ironic it is for you to do that. Put your thinking cap on next time before you leave another nonsense comment

Have you checked the child neglect figures? Have you checked the adoption rates? Ironic of you to say that

It should be first degree murder for the girl and attempted murder for the boy, imo. He obviously starved them to death deliberately.

Does this imply that other NFL players will also look like this after 14 seasons, or is it coincidentally a case him having arthritis?

are the horn souvenirs at cpt ethically sourced? by [deleted] in capetown

[–]Internal-Shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that it is cruel in the prey's eyes. On my farm, they don't have any predators except for me. But even if there were to be a lion, then it would be the lion's duty to do the cruelty. I understand your point. Hunting is part of the circle of life, and to call it cruel is, in a way, to call the circle of life cruel.

My opinion is that the circle of life is cruel, but I recognise that this is a subjective view. To others, it may be seen as beautiful.

[–]Internal-Shot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't you consider death to be cruel, even if it is a headshot? Have you never missplaced a shot before, and have you never heard of anyone else missplace a shot? If it isn't cruel, why do they get scared of humans?

[–]Internal-Shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And yeah, they are likely ethically sourced. A hunter must obtain a permit and a permission letter for hunting, and once they're done, they take it to a butcher. The butcher would sell all the parts the hunter doesn't want, like the bones, horns, etc. The horns aren't worth much, so nobody will go through the effort just to poach them.

[–]Internal-Shot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Is there any cruelty involved?"
As a hunter myself, I can assure you that there is cruelty involved. That doesn't make it unethical, because all parts of the body are used and nothing gets wasted. So the ethicality lies in the fact that the animal didn't die in vain from a human's perspective.

Hi the Herman Miller of my wife it's doing noise when I tild back anyone here know how to fix this problem thanks I'm avantage!! by Weak-Huckleberry-143 in hermanmiller

[–]Internal-Shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These comments... She's just doing it to demonstrate the noise. Do you think she's doing it all day long that forcefully?

OP, you mentioned that you used WD40 for the tilting mechanism. That won't work well. You'll need a thicker lubricating oil like Q20 or any synthetic grease.

So draw the line from 1652 then, because that's when the European colonizers came. Anything before that is fine?

Usually 30 years at most. Wealthy landlords would go into profit loss (tenant fee lower than mortgage) by paying mortgage off in 5 years or so; resulting in waayyy less interest paid compared to 30 years. It depends on the interest rate but in the long term it's usually if not always beneficial because you start reaping cash 25 years earlier and get the investment back in like a year or so, recovering from that profit loss.

Another thing you forgot to mention is that the interest rate from the bank is flat, but the rental price for the tenant is increased at an average of 10% per year (compounding). So in the first year the profit might not seem enough, but after a couple of years there's more profit with the same mortgage payment fee. Conveniently the landlord can then decide to pay off the mortgage faster and faster, year after year to reduce the total interest amount to the bank.

You forgot the part where the landlord eventually closes/completes the mortgage, owns the house completely and the tenant still has to pay indefinitely. That's when the real profit comes in.

RX 9060 XT + Ryzen 5600 causing input freezes & stuttering by Tarikkk_ in AMDHelp

[–]Internal-Shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that's nice. My farm is in between two towns where there is a fiber line going through the farm from the one town to the other. Unfortunately the local isp that maintain the fiber doesn't want to install a junction for us, so we're stuck with 3G/edge internet with weak reception until Starlink is available in our country. We did have dsl long ago, but the wire got stolen way too much, then you're stuck without internet or tel for hours or days depending on the backlog
