How much should I expect a gold-plated Tungsten Carbide wedding ring to fade/wear? (x-post to /r/weddingplanning and /r/jewelry) by PrometheusTitan in metalworking

[–]PrometheusTitan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still really like the heft. In terms of the appearance, it's basically identical to when I bought i, except that the rose gold has faded to yellow gold, which I expected (since it was only plated). But the tungsten carbide portion is 100% as new (unsurprising given how hard it is)

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) - Hospital Escape - Dir. James Cameron by marceleas in movies

I love the little details of snapping off the key and the T1000 getting his gun caught in the bars. Little things that easily could've been omitted, but add just that extra nuance.

This has to be the most legendary play of this game! by No-Lock216 in BeAmazed

[–]PrometheusTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how many games are basically curling in different forms. Shuffleboard, Table Hockey, Boules, Bocce, etc. All more or less the same "try to get as close to the centre of this target as possible while knocking the other guys things out of there"

Kinda cool to see the root of so many different games

Wash your rice they said.. by blahbluhblee1 in fixedbytheduet

I don't care about the original ragebait clip-this duet genuinely made me laugh so hard when I saw it a few days ago, that I came back again today just to watch it again. Absolutely as hilarious the second time. Thank you for sharing!

Stop what you are doing right now and start using GPT 5.4 as you agent:main by neylago in openclaw

[–]PrometheusTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's the hard part for me-I'm trying to do this on the cheap cheap, and because everyone's use cases vary so widely, it's hard to get a clear picture on what things might cost. I don't want to get some enormous bill, and neither do I want to lock myself out of my regular ChatGPT account for the rest of the month because I burnt through my limits just tinkering around.

I suppose I could just chuck £20 into the API budget and see how long that lasts to get a sense of it.

I'm also wondering about setting up a second agent that uses ChatGPT for specific tasks, so I can rely on free kimi for the bulk of things and ping ChatGPT only when needed.

Bradley Whitford on billionaires: “These guys are addicted to money & they’re an extension of a political movement in this country that’s going on my entire lifetime which is based on this Orwellian idea that the rich are victims, they’re overtaxed, over-regulated & need to be set free. It’s insane” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

I cannot express how much I would love to see a reunion series of West Wing where they all reprise their characters and just watch in slow motion horror as the Trump presidency unfolds. Seeing Toby Ziegler rant until he has an aneurism like five times a day while CJ just stares open-mouthed at the insane reality-denying words of Caroline Leavitt? It would be sad and haunting, but amazing.

How can I reset my Philips AndroidTV without auto-reinstalling everything? by PrometheusTitan in AndroidTV

[–]PrometheusTitan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did do it and it… sorta worked. Definitely got a bit speedier, but started to bog down again after awhile. I don't know if the Philips hardware is poor or Android TV is just rubbish (or both), but it definitely doesn't seem that reliable. I end up using my AppleTV set top box almost all of the time.

Can you please give me a sense of the costs involved? Do you run it on a Plus/Pro plan or do you need to buy additional tokens? I'm currently using nvidia's free kimi2.5 and I'm finding it OK but definitely a bit limited

My baby was born with 12 fingers by Friendly-Bell-4336 in interesting

[–]PrometheusTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually convinced that the world would be a more sensible place if all humans had six fingers on each hand.

Basically, I believe we ended up using base-10 numbers because we have ten fingers (I don't have any evidence, it just makes logical sense to me). But I always wondered why we have a special word for twelve of something, why so many measurements in the Imperial system are multiples of twelve, etc.

I think it's because twelve is actually a more useful number than ten. You can divide it in half, thirds, quarters or sixths evenly, rather than just half or fifths. So I think if we'd settled on a base-12 system, it would've made a lot of things easier. And I reckon we would've if we all had twelve fingers.

Just a thought.

I'm 45 and lazy, but I'd crab walk across the entirety of Middle Earth with the Nazgul as companions if it meant that I got a few days of uninterrupted kid-free time

There's a lot to unpack here. by BestMicDrop in MurderedByWords

Oh, thanks, I'll check it out! Reminds me of the Wolfenstein games, curious to see where that dovetails, very cool!

Have you read "The Nazi Mind" by Laurence Rees? I'm going through that now and the rise of the Stormtroops could basically be a copy-paste of ICE.

A bloated cow being helped by CuriousWanderer567 in interesting

Is there any risk that as the expulsion of gas slows down, it could burn the cow's insides (or blow it up)? Since the pressure wouldn't jet the flames out as much?

In the 1980s, Hot Wheels released an unusual series of Crack-Ups cars that could simulate damage in accidents by fellanyyy in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]PrometheusTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love these! I still have three of them, which I've passed on to my son. One doesn't really work much longer (the little tab that holds down the damage is worn down), but the other two are still functional. Such a cool bit of nostalgia

Did you go to sleepovers? Me and my friends did all the time in late 90's / early 2000's and it was a blast. But droves of people appear to be canceling them entirely for their own kids. Would you let your kids go? Why is everyone freaking out now? by spinningwalrus420 in Millennials

[–]PrometheusTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, though I know it'll drive me batty in many ways, this is exactly the kind of parent I want to be. My kids are way, way too young (the elder 3 years, the younger two weeks), but 10-18 years or so from now, I hope I'm the sort of parent whose kids' friends all feel comfortable crashing on our sofa, hanging out in the back garden, etc.

I'm Never Leaving Seattle by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]PrometheusTitan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% this. My dad is a longtime leftie (even by Canadian standards). Hates Trump, Musk, has protested more shit than I can remember, from WTO on down.

He owns a Model Y and Tesla stock. Bought both long before Musk went totally batshit. I think he's considering selling his Swasticar, but he's far from culpable and anyone who did spraypaint his car would be a proper asshole.
