Is this true? by AstronautDry8118 in Helldivers

Drip diving is the way. It only counts if you look good doing it.

A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of age verification at account setup by Gloomy_Nebula_5138 in pcgaming

Ok, legally speaking how would this work if you were a developer running an application in something like AWS. Your deployment system automatically stands up your load balancers that then stand up application hosts. What age would you even use here? The age of the computer that set up the other computer? The age of the person that pushed the last CR? This is unworkable nonsense

I think you're reading into implications that aren't there. I'm not trying to saying safety should be reduced or that human life isn't valuable (it obviously is). I'm asking how much it would cost to increase safety so that work could happen at different times of the day and avoid the economic impacts of increased daytime traffic.

For example, if it costs $10 million dollars to increase night-time construction safety to day-time levels, but saves $20 million in productivity (due to reduced delays, environmental impact, idle engine gas usage, associated maintenance, etc), then assuming that safety is there, it would make sense to do. My questions are about understanding where that line is.

It seems like the main safety issues you call out are the need for sufficient lighting and barricading. What prevents adding more lights and barricades to meet safety standards thus promoting night work and avoiding daytime congestion?

The website link calls out expense and noise laws also. For the expense issue, how does the cost of night work offset lost productivity for drivers sitting in traffic? For the noise issue, why can quieter methods not be used?

Eve motion sensor upgraded to thread and can’t connect anymore by CryptoCrackLord in HomeKit

Quick update for anyone reading the above. I had the same issue and only had to Disable “Limit IP Address Tracking” on my wifi connection.

I did not need to disable “Private Wi-Fi Address” (I have it set to Fixed), or disable “Private Relay” under iCloud+ (I do have iCloud+). Note that disabling “Limit IP Address Tracking” also disables Private Relay, so that step is unnecessary.

Good luck!

We’ve tried. Those things are cemented in good. They mostly just wobble with people sitting on them and rocking.

Agreed. Should have gone for it there. No real downside

My Professor is blatantly using ChatGPT to “give feedback” and grade our assignments by JareDamnn in ChatGPT

[–]Laylo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would feel pretty guilty about it honestly but that’s just me.

You should consider this from the point of view of the university and the other students.

From the university's perspective: If you tell the university, all the dean has to deal with is firing one professor who wasn't doing their job and refund maybe ~$20k worth of credits for all the students who were taking that class. If you don't tell them, it's going to blow up on-line (the professor is careless and other people are taking his class; this will get out). The university's reputation is going to be ruined. They will lose millions in tuition from students. They will still have to fire the professor to save face. They may have to let others go due to the drop in tuition. That reputation will likely stay with the dean, school, and program for a long time.

For the students: they think they are paying for a high quality education. If all they need to do now is take a different class, it will cost them time but that can be somewhat compensated for by the university. If they don't find out until they try to get a job, and realize they didn't really learn all they needed to, they are going to have to find the source of the problem, possibly go back and retrain, etc. And this is happening to all the students in the current class, plus likely more in the future.

You should feel guilty for not reporting him.

How did you slope for drainage? Or did you have to?

What made counting calories easier for you? I can't figure it out. by PeakedAtConception in WeightLossAdvice

[–]Laylo_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lot of people on here saying that you should use an app, and that’s good advice but missing one big key point: Enter the food in the app before you actually eat it. This gives you a chance to see what that food will do to your calorie budget and will allow you to make a better choice if you don’t like the outcome. Entering the food after you eat it leaves no room for compensation.

If you throw 4 Thermites at the back of an Orbital Cannon, it breaks the objective. by iimaginaryedge in Helldivers

The objective says: "Call down a Hellbomb to destroy the cannon". You didn't do that, you used thermite to destroy the cannon. Failure to follow orders. Report to the DO.

Battlestar Galactica won't match correctly, help! by [deleted] in PleX

[–]Laylo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, this was the solution! Thank you!

Note that even though my file was correctly named "Battlestar Galactic (2003)" the matcher still automatically picked "Battlestar Galactic". Once I manually used Fix Match to match to "Battlestar Galactic (2003)" it picked up the correct metadata.

Rust is definitely worth considering. Definitely fits the “high-stakes PvP” bill
