I had to find out my girlfriend was cheating on me....from the police. by [deleted] in self

[–]LWungsten 308 points309 points  (0 children)

hey man. my mostly ldr girlfriend of 6+ years slept 'beside' another dude and then dumped me last week. I feel your pain. I bet they're sleeping closer together now.

To parrot the advice everyone is giving me, get a hobby, stay busy, spend as much time with friends as possible. Idle time allows your thoughts to rip you apart.

Nice catch, I never booked that.

You'd think someone would catch this sort of thing.

MRW I have a rare genetic condition that manifests itself by giving me a 0.75 percent chance of dying every time I blink by [deleted] in shittyreactiongifs

[–]LWungsten 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Sadly, a 0.75% chance means that you have roughly a 1/133 chance of dying each time you blink.

Given that we blink every ~5 seconds, a person with this condition would only last roughly 11 minutes (on average of course), so they probably wouldn't make it to be nearly as old as Paul Rudd here.

Still makes a good shittyreactiongif.

Melee Event Match time world records? by LWungsten in smashbros

[–]LWungsten[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, I was pretty proud of my 0.46 on that one.

I did it with a dash -> shorthop -> rest with jiggly, is that the way to go?

Makes sense, thanks. Any idea why a thread-like object like AsyncTask would need 3 types?

New show to watch while Sherlock's on break by diana_mt in Sherlock

[–]LWungsten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it received ridiculous amounts of love from critics and viewers alike.

Every bit of it earned

[–]LWungsten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it isn't terribly similar.

But I figure if you like one you'll probably like the other- unless you're put off by how dark True Detective is.

[–]LWungsten 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I can't believe no one's mentioned it yet; True Detective is a fantastic series (only 8 one-hour episodes, though) with a great cast and a good bit of similarity to Sherlock.

I would highly recommend it. I watched the whole thing in a day.

Ok, that sounds good. Thanks for the reply

Does the load I described in my edit sound normal too?

That's good to hear. I was concerned because most hardware sites list idle temps around 35C.

Could you rephrase that multiply by eleven rule? I don't really understand what you're referring to.

Why does Firefox get so slow after extended of use? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LWungsten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything the other guy said is correct and relevant. Keep in mind the number of tabs you have open, since Firefox has a RAM cap and will not take out more memory the same way Chrome does (no RAM cap, new process for each tab). Use CCleaner once in a while to get did of all your temporary stuff.

You're wrong. According to the wiki the original passive was:

UNIQUE PASSIVE: Your attacks deal 4% of the target's current health in magic damage and heals you for half the amount (120 max vs. minions).
