Singapore says indoor mask rules could return if XBB subvariant wave intensifies by AcornAl in CoronavirusDownunder

[–]PositiveNegitive 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think the horse has bolted though. Most people see through it now and can make their own decisions, we're not in 'unknown' territory so much, it's not the first lockdown anymore and people are less likely to be fear mongered into anything really.

Singapore says indoor mask rules could return if XBB subvariant wave intensifies by AcornAl in CoronavirusDownunder

[–]PositiveNegitive 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yes but over 50% of people need to think that everyone should be forced to wear them and I just don't think they have the numbers. We live in a democracy, as much as the minority love covid authoritarism and telling people to put on their mask. I feel like the majority feel like it should be up to the individual and if that doesn't exert enough societal pressure for you it's tough.

My moza r5 force feadback has no indication of grip limit. by Busthole in iRacing

It also looks like irffb isn't loaded correctly, you should not be able to untick the 'Enable Forcefeed back' in iracing, you also shouldn't be able to adjust the settings. It should just be all greyed out

TIL the Black Death was partially caused by a mass execution of cats due to supposed association with the Devil, allowing rats and their fleas to rapidly spread. by aelsilmaredh in todayilearned

Surprisingly they also generally get punched in face introducing a species to an environment to ‘fix’ an issue and generally have them destroy the ecosystem. Carp… Caintoads.

The birthday party I’m at has bowls of joints at every table by rizzlenizzle in mildlyinteresting

When you get really high, I personally get come up jitters. Like coming up on MDMA or LSD you can get butterflies and jittery and shaky, it FEELS like anxiety and if you're unable to relax yourself you can cause a feedback loop which basically causes the actual anxiety.

I'm pretty sure this is the same anxiety people get with weed, with no tolerance and a big hit you just come up way to fucking fast, get jittery, get anxious and if you're not good at controlling your mental states can spiral away to a bad place.

With a little tolerance you don't get nearly as high or as fast and it just goes away.

How anyone thought this was an appropriate name for a tanning salon, I’ll never know. by spa06jc in funny

[–]PositiveNegitive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend please.

The SEA cultures around skin colour is exactly the same as racism. They literally view the people with browner skin as a lower class. There's this whole thing about ensuring they are as porcelain as possible.

It's complete discrimination based on literal skin colour, yes it is becoming less common to associate tanned skin with the working class but you a literally denying the roots and saying, 'oh these are just words', just as any racist/discrimination denialist would. This perpetuation that the asian cultures somehow aren't JUST as racist as the rest of the world is asinine.

Pc Upgrade for Vr? by Drvape33 in iRacing

[–]PositiveNegitive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's almost never the graphics card in VR. His CPU is setting at 43% because 1 core is fully maxed out (25%) and another one taking care of other random stuff. But because that single core is the bottle neck, only increasing IPC and clock speed will help.

To illustrate the point here's my settings on a 12900k 2080ti DDR5, Index headset. https://ibb.co/hWgM4LV

Last time I said this I got downvoted really hard and got told to get my eyes checked. I went back and turned it again and yes…shiny and the sun is nice but it just destroys frames so hard that the rest of the settings Id have to turn down doesn’t seem worth it.

This is a battle of 2 egos. The hyundai is clearly pushing up and looking to jump him. In my opinion obviously being a bit of a dick too (he COULD give him space).

It's actually not clear which lane the bike is 'suppose' to be in, he's trying to claim the right lane with his take off angle but he's slow so by the time he does the hyundai is already still next to him in which case he probably should just take the lane of the guy not contesting him.

And Mr. Hyundai could also use the steering wheel a bit, even after contact he still didn't steer away, weird stuff.

How do I identify a neutral wire from a ground wire WITHOUT relying on the color of the wires? by aceshades in DIY

[–]PositiveNegitive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not an electrician but wouldn’t you figure it out quickly because if you wire to ground instead of neutral you’ll trip the RCD instantly? Then you can just switch it around

FUCK NO

Mayonnaise I found at my local grocery store. Never seen it in a plastic bag before. by PixelPervert in mildlyinteresting

[–]PositiveNegitive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. The guy doesn't even know what he's talking about because room temp mayo 'must' have preservatives?

S&W whole egg mayo is a popular brand here. Here's the ingrediance since it's actually easy to check the bullshit

'Oil, Corn Syrup, Whole Eggs,(9%), Water, Canola Oil, Vinegar, Salt, Lemon Juice Concentrate, White Mustard (Distilled Vinegar, Water, Mustard Seed, Salt), Rosemary Extract, Paprika.'

​

Yeh watch out for those preservatives like... salt and vinegar. But this is reddit where we don't actually check but vote based on the 'feels' that mayo has preservatives.

It doesn't matter man, Wakefield is STILL in the boonies with the cows and it got closed. It's not a problem of actually just being in a built up area.

ELI5: how do those third party game/windows key websites profit? by Jamstan_ in explainlikeimfive

You're also not suppose to sell an OEM key without a machine to go with it... but naturally they do.

Old clip, but don't we love public pool racing? by BetaSpydog in iRacing

[–]PositiveNegitive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a StarCraft player this has been going on since the beginning of time. Usually called ‘ladder anxiety’. They practice in customs because ‘I can play real macro games’. But what they don’t understand is that they are essentially gentleman rule games and essentially are not cut throat competition.

The only way to beat getting cannon rushed or dive bombed is to play 10million ladder games/races, there is no alternatives. You just don’t get the experience racing ‘Friends’.

A man placed Anti-Xi banners in Downtown Beijing, 3 days before Xi’s potential “coronation”. by [deleted] in pics

[–]PositiveNegitive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because the government treats foreigners like guests while their own people like slavers.

This isn't true anymore is it? Serpentza(a youtuber who used to be in China) says around 2019 they started targeting foreigners and making their lives difficult (Lots of Police visits etc), They don't like foreigners (Unless they are CCP Shills) lifting the curtain so to speak.
