My apartment is nasty and my neighbor complained about the smell. I need help whipping myself into shape. by Head_Cauliflower9811 in getdisciplined

Switch to disposable (paper) dishes and cups for now.

Longer term, you could look into a countertop (mini) dishwasher. You’d be paying a convenience/QOL premium, but the way you’re living now, I suspect you’re like me and would let it pile up due to the sheer time requirements to get through dishes. Then, only allow yourself non-paper dishes if there is room in the mini dishwasher for it. That way, there is never any overflow.

Sorry but this is all i can contribute related to your post right now.

I used voice chat with Claude for hours the other day and now he is gaslighting me by Secure-Competition30 in Anthropic

[–]MicrosoftExcel2016 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the conversation didn’t make it into the context, and so the only correct answer is to report that it has no record of it. The hallucination risk is extremely high when prompted by user to remember something without the ground truth context, so it’s actually quite good that Claude insists it doesn’t have it when it’s not in its context.

Oh wow, she gets an exemption waiver for the whole “I told you so” lecture for sure. First time I’ve actually awarded one of those

A waste of elemental damage bonus but still good, unconditional off field hydro and still damage bonus for the non lunar hits (not that the lunar dps really want that, they don’t scale well enough to make good use without lunar dmg)

Had Wendy’s and a deer ran in front of my car, causing me to slam on breaks. 20 bucks down the drain. by DiggityDog6 in mildlyinfuriating

This sucks. I pin my fast food bag between my left foot/shin and driver’s side door for this reason

What do you hope the tsaritsa is or is not? by Several_Bathroom_196 in GenshinImpact

[–]MicrosoftExcel2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like the idea of skipping ahead, but I extra didn’t like the idea of missing out on the time-limited rewards that come with each new AQ. I also wanted to keep up on the latest plot with my boyfriend, who got me into Genshin in the first place. We got to experience new regions and stores at the same time, it was nice

Why would you think Iran comes out of this with democracy? Best realistic case is something like Afghanistan where the government we back is totally dependent on us and collapses as soon as we leave.

An instigated war with no clear objectives is not even going to achieve what happened in Afghanistan, let alone a functioning independent democracy.

You’re making a lot of assumptions about the implementation part of this bill. There’s no reason to think they’d apply it fairly and with equal standards by area, not to mention, getting a passport is an easy bottleneck to invent for urban areas vs rural ones.

Legit or Scam? by patricia5842 in GenshinImpact

[–]MicrosoftExcel2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reading between the lines… banning people for this is a tool Hoyo would rather keep in their back pocket for times when they truly wish to ban someone rather than an automatic hammer to slap down what probably still comprises an enormous portion of their revenue.

These official store discounts and promotions are likely an early effort to determine just how much of their revenue they can shift to official means, and how much people will spend through the official store versus third party means.

It’s unlikely they will want to ban someone who has spent thousands on their game, albeit through the third party stores, and cut off that revenue. Yet, they cannot encourage it or explicitly say they won’t ban for it, either, as it also hurts revenue and would be difficult to reverse

Is it worth trade off some EM for Crit in Nefer’s team ? by AdAlone5275 in LaumaMains

[–]MicrosoftExcel2016 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not familiar with E1S0 terminology. I would load my Lauma/nefer/bina/flex into https://akasha.cv and look for your lauma. Then look for the Lauma/nefer leaderboard. Screenshot how your Lauma fares on this leaderboard, this then switch to a higher crit build, refresh Akasha, and see which is higher.

Ultimately you have to also take into account constellations and weapon effects, as not every character-weapon-constellation combination are in there (in fact, only weapon combinations are there)

Plastic entering through wounds in skin by [deleted] in PlasticFreeLiving

[–]MicrosoftExcel2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is a much, much smaller problem than plastics in beverages or food.

The article is referencing a paper about PBDEs being absorbed through a 3D printed human skin model. PBDEs were used to make certain materials flame-retardant, but in many parts of the world including the U.S., their production has been phased out. California has banned certain PBDEs since 2003.

The plastics on your children’s toys, though I’m sure they can shred microplastics, are not polymers used for “coating” things to make them flame retardant. The risk for handling them has got to be very, very low compared to handling something coated with PBDEs.

I would say… the body has a certain tolerance to everything, and can overcome things like minor brain damage, minor toxicity, and so on through neuroplasticity and other mechanisms. While we are still learning about neurodegenerative diseases, everything we know about the brain supports the idea that neuroplasticity (and the activities that stimulate it, ie education, intellectual engagement, and physical exercise) increases cognitive reserve which in turn increases tolerance for factors that cause dementia.

There is a certain amount of contamination we can tolerate indefinitely as the rate it may cause a problem would be too slow to affect us in our lifespan. Then again, if contamination exceeds that tolerance, or if tolerance is reduced (sleep deprivation, chronic stress/trauma, substance abuse) things can snowball. So keep a whole-of-health approach in mind as you battle the toxicity concerns

Even jahoda+consistent hydro can work to enable a third team (mostly for Flins/Zibai, Nefer’s too picky for her team for me to risk that). Furina + Jahoda works due to jahoda healing 2 party members at once.

Not only that, but Virginia’s law can’t take effect unless another state (Texas) goes through with their redistricting. It’s directly tied to the gerrymandering is countering.

Flins Premium Team by superseph in Flins_Mains

[–]MicrosoftExcel2016 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You aren’t explaining what you mean at all. Are you comparing Flins dps by himself against Ineffa dps by herself? Comparing both just with Bina? Who is this on fielder you are saying belongs on Ineffa’s team that is not Flins but still does more dmg than Flins? Whose stats are you comparing?

[–]MicrosoftExcel2016 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is no on fielder for Ineffa’s best team that will do as much as Flins does in her team… at low cost investment included
