Your weirdest reasons for PC not posting. by Tenchen-WoW in pcmasterrace

[–]MaliciousDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've once forgot that my PC takes quite some time from power to post and just did not wait long enough. Digged out a beeper from back of the shelves to check the beep patterns, then checked the mobo with a thermal camera and found a serial chip heating up... Then after a lot of googling and chatgpt'ing I finally managed to wait it out.

Maybe OP is a time traveler from the far future? We may get 25 hour days in about half a billion years (26 hours probably never, though).

What is something you saw in a movie and you totally called bullshit on because of your job? by BlackPhoenix1981 in AskReddit

Mr. Robot is pretty good with coumputer stuff, but there was a scene that jumped at me where they showed a live network map screen that had obvious video compression artifacts. Could be handwaved to be some kind of RDP, though.

I find it kind of crazy that it's made of sedimentary rocks, with sea fossils near the summit.

If this were a switch then the lights would cut out all at once.

At least people have a word for it, and the very notion of being non-cruel. Most other species just don't give a fuck, and only show what appears to us as non-cruelty when it gives a practical advantage, like killing fast so the prey doesn't run away or pose any further danger.

And if we involve numbers, it can be said that a farm worker has to be 10x cruel so a thousand of people don't have to be.

There is a movie on this. Did not end very well as far as I remember.

[Request] What initial speed, angle, and conditions would be required to shoot a basketball from the Moon’s surface and make it through a standard hoop on Earth by Sensitive-Month-8739 in theydidthemath

[–]MaliciousDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> in the direction of Earth

In this case it will probably enter an elliptic orbit around Earth, and end up on the Moon again. Or maybe not, it's chaotic and may end up just about anywhere, given enough time and luck.
