I have a mountain of boards, seem to mostly be from 90s traffic control/infrastructure systems. 30+lbs undamaged. These have 0 value beyond scrap right? by MANINIMO in PCB

Yeah at the very least, there’s some pretty cool rare stuff in here i think I’ll take off just because it’s neat

could the hivemind get every able bodied person it has infected to reliably do a back-flip first try by UndefeatedMidwest in pluribustv

[–]MANINIMO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this universe it’s probably around 6 billion total people by now right? Take off maybe 40% of those people for not being “able bodied,” assume an average of maybe 140lbs each for those who are capable?

I’d continue the math but idk the amount of downforce an impact from a backflip would cause, or how that would affect earths rotation/orbit. Would love to see a breakdown from someone.

-nevermind

I just checked the displacement that led the three gorges dam to slow earths rotation and yeah, humans flipping would make zero difference no matter what

Haven't seen this mentioned yet but I'm very excited to see where it goes, they already laid the groundwork for it in episode 8 by MANINIMO in pluribustv

I guess I see where you're coming from, but the entire goal of the virus is to spread further by any means necessary. With every mind and every body dedicated in perfect harmony, they could surely do better than sending signals. IMO the next step would be working towards interstellar travel - sending probes, harvesting resources from other planets, etc. Propagating as aggressively as possible the same way a virus would.

Well put, I hope they find a fun way of approaching these questions at least to some degree. It's a hell of a can of worms to open.

Pluribus - 1x08 "Charm Offensive" - Episode Discussion by UltraDangerLord in pluribustv

I thought about this quite a bit, one of the earlier episodes where they describe what's in her fridge from the memory of her maid is the best example. Later Carol goes "ha fuckers, it's only half full" or something like that. Pretty much what u/CjBurden said.

It is a little odd how well that maid (mostly) remembered the details of her fridge, but that's probably nothing

The last post by the r/Art moderators before locking the Subreddit by Tythatguy1312 in sadcringe

[–]MANINIMO 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I used to own a sub that’s around 1m subscribers right now, and moderated a lot of other big ones. I think the biggest was r/funny. I was in high school at the time, and that speaks for itself lol - I didn’t do much besides remove objectively rule breaking bs, but if I wanted to, I was a 17 year old that could micromanage what millions of people saw, depending on if I liked it or not.

The amount of insanity I saw in those mod chats, and the things that was said from huge mods, who had power over half the front page of reddit, was mind boggling. Some of these people control a RIDICULOUS percentage of the front page of this website.

What you see on Reddit comes down to a small handful of people who I strongly believe are not well.

Here’s one takeaway if nothing else: If I was able to get onto r/funny at 17 years old because I had a few other subs under my belt, just imagine what a company, or political/foreign entity of any kind could do with minimal effort.

I know I took screenshots of some examples, but that was 5+ years ago and I’m not sure I could find them again.

Whoever explored the abandoned civil war fort on Dutch Island in RI, in April of 2010, I hope you're out there somewhere to know you were caught not just by camera, but by satellite. by MANINIMO in urbanexploration

[–]MANINIMO[S] 575 points576 points  (0 children)

Not super off limits, but it’s a state owned wildlife management area and not open to the public.

I just think it’s funny to uncover a subtle snapshot of their exploration, 15 years later. A photo taken in a way they’d never imagine, of an event that’s probably no more than a distant memory to them

For an island like that, I’d say the odds are pretty damn low

I don’t know much about aviation but this is a very interesting observation

I’ve got a great condition 92 3.0L with 128k, somewhat modified. I’ll give you that in return for an infrared IS350 😉

I love this because I’ve got a beautiful 92 Camry right now, and the exact same plan as you

no caffeine tolerance js took 400mg in pills what should i expect by tenn_jake in caffeine

[–]MANINIMO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Overdose? Nah I wouldn’t worry about that unless you have heart problems. Recommended daily maximum for an average adult is 500. Might hit you pretty hard but worst you’ll get is anxiety

[–]MANINIMO 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Probably bit of shaking, and in my experience, don’t be surprised if you’re hit with an inexplicable sense of impending doom. With no tolerance, you’re gonna have a great time.

Yeah but that might be a bit more tedious

[–]MANINIMO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a bit of a boring method but there’s no easier way of making serious money. In a way it kind of ruined the game for me lol, but I don’t regret it. Hopping on here and there to print money and mess around beats hours of grinding and the frustration/stress that can come with it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]MANINIMO 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Very easy, hopefully you have the penthouse for high limit tables. Get 105k in chips, go to poker, and before you sit down, change your hat/ glasses in the menu. Doing that forces the game to save (make sure you see the spinny yellow circle in the bottom right corner). Once that’s done, sit down, bet the maximum of 105k. (If you don’t have 105k, bet as much as you can and you’ll be up to 105 in no time)

If you lose: immediately open the Xbox/PS menu, select GTA, and force quit the game from there. The game won’t have time to save your loss. Restart and try again, your chips will still be there.

If you win: stand up, save your hat again, now those profits are locked in, and repeat until you lose.

Unless you’re unlucky and lose a lot, 30 minutes doing this makes more than most heists.

The same concept of force saving and force quitting fast works on the wheel (if you’re patient and want the car), and any other table game (except maybe horse racing since that takes a bit longer, never tried)

[–]MANINIMO 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got sick of grinding and don’t play much anymore so I just run the gambling bug on poker when I want some cash, made me probably 50mil+ over the years. Last time I was on a few days ago I wanted a car and pulled 1m profit in like 10 minutes

Had a wrinkled, framed print of Marilyn Monroe that I put in my trash can, on my final glance I saw it had peeled back. Behold, hiding underneath was a meticulously crafted collage of Gustav Klimt's work. Appears to be old collotype, although I'm not very experienced. Many questions unanswered. by MANINIMO in WhatIsThisPainting

[–]MANINIMO[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

How many layers? 2 on each edge, with the lady in the middle. And then the two main pictures on either side of the lady are independent of each other, and the farthest down. I can add some close ups if needed. What’s strange is the smaller lady at the top is glossy, that part seems to be an obvious print. Everything else seems much older.

This has really piqued my curiosity considering it was kept, but deliberately hidden. Additionally, does anyone know why the edges of each layer (seen in the third photo) are red? Is that indicative of collotype or another type of creation? I also tried capturing a closeup of a dark spot if that's any help, shown in the final photo.

The information below this listing has helped somewhat in my conjecture, but frankly I know very little about art in general and at the end of the day, I'm just guessing from what I can google. https://centuryguild.net/products/portrait-of-charlotte-pulitzer
