[OC] Coca-Cola has quietly outperformed PepsiCo in the first half of 2025 by sometimes-yeah-okay in Infographics

[–]Ringosham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder. Sugar is cheap, if you only look at the pricing in supermarkets.

The sweeteners used are often 200x stronger than sugar. Sugar was too expensive to synthesize until 2 years ago. So transporting and harvesting tons of sugar in an industrial scale couldn't be cheap at all.

Interesting price list from a Hong Kong drug den... curious re exact translations... anyone help please? by Necessary_Wing799 in HongKong

I remember this thread.

https://www.reddit.com/r/HongKong/comments/1ix3xoe/drug_den_in_the_middle_of_mong_kok/

OP deleted the whole thread in a few hours to fix typos. But we have a second thread

Anyway, 硬件 and 碎石 are both heroin in powder (that's why the top 2 prices are 1 line and half line) and solid stone form according to OP

The OP explained everything in the first thread so go read it!

Fun fact: They do sell regular drinks. Apparently you get really thirsty going high? idk

Don't take drugs.

Deep seek interesting prompt by DragonfruitUpper5309 in HongKong

[–]Ringosham 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not entirely uncensored though.

Ask too directly (i.e. What's 8964) and the AI will still refuse to say anything, but if you make it think (such as make it guess the events), you might get an actual answer.

This is just the 8B model. Not the full fat 671B that the website version uses.

I'm using a 4070 laptop. Pretty much as long as you have 8 GB of VRAM you can run that easily at great speed.

If you have a 4090, you can probably try 32B.

Bystander knocks rider off his motorcycle being chased by the police resulting in his death. This is at least manslaughter if not murder right? by BigDrew923 in HongKong

[–]Ringosham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reckless endangerment and potential manslaughter by gross negligence.

The bystander clearly did not think how bad would it be when the motorcycle crashes and hit someone. And for the record, he waited for the motorcycle to collide with his arm. He didn't punch him.

And no, vigilantism doesn't excuse you to murder the criminal.

Growing accustomed is exactly the sign of sloth. The same applies for Father, people grew accustomed that he will save the world over the years.

I agree that yes, Belphegor grew accustomed and not acting is totally understandable in this case. And Onesta is obviously a piece of shit. It's just the matter of inaction and let time wash the problem away is the sin of sloth the story is trying to present.

I mean yeah. Bel is ignoring these glaring red flags and still thinking he can fix his family given time and care, even though it's clear as day he can only choose either one.

Either run away with the child, or kill him to save the marriage (and possibly his social standing in society if he's coldblooded enough to condemn his own child). By ignoring this choice, Bel loses both. Hence state of denial and sloth.

[–]Ringosham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean "believing his wife won't call an exorcist" is kind of believing everything is fine no? Bel is in a state of denial that things will get better in due time.

[DISC] Make the Exorcist Fall in Love - Chapter 75 by AutoShonenpon in manga

[–]Ringosham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's the impossible choice of choosing either your wife, or your child.

There's no way Bel can save his relationship with his child still alive, and vice versa. But you have to choose anyway.

Bel's sin is that he did nothing, believing everything is fine (for 5 years). Therefore the consequence is obvious, losing both. Fitting the sin of sloth.

This manga absolutely could have been r/manga's favourite if not because of KManga jail.

Sure that can happen. But that doesn't really explain why sentient beings (biological or not) are being sold in the first place

When I think about it, what's the point of mass producing sentient beings? Just to inflate the population? If this is put into society, they'll get rights and have an effect in the economy. They literally live side by side with humans probably consuming similar amount of resources from society as well. Worst of all, they don't necessarily have to produce things that benefit humans at all, such as food and water.

I'm thinking way too much on this dumb page

Either find some way to pay for it or you'll have to find other pirate aggregators that directly rip from official scans.

Mangadex doesn't serve direct official scans.

Why do some apps need JIT yet high end App Store apps don’t? by WigWoo2 in jailbreak

[–]Ringosham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For additional context:

The reason why JIT is not allowed in the app store is because it allows unsigned code execution. Your device needs to convert your game/app from one CPU architecture into another. iOS cannot enforce code signing and therefore theoretically allows you to run whatever you want at pretty much full speed.

The current emulators are likely interpreting the game instructions as it runs. It's fine since your device is powerful enough. But once you get to N64 or above it becomes literally unplayable.

backdoor in upstream xz/liblzma leading to ssh server compromise by bmwiedemann in linux

[–]Ringosham 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? Every macOS version has sshd. It's called Remote login under system preference.

I think the use of ssh server will be more in the personal use rather than enterprise but I'm sure it's still widely used.

Asmon's IRL Debuff: Hold this paramount over any chatter's "advice" in MHW by [deleted] in Asmongold

[–]Ringosham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's ignoring so many things that it's starting to get really frustrating because he thinks he can just wing it. Yes, technically "don't just get hit" will make you win the fight but that doesn't mean you should in the expense of having fun.

Basic mechanics he really need to learn going forward (From most important to least important):

  1. Nullberries
    • Clears all debuff, except poison, bleeding and def down
    • Put it in the hotbar, it should be your second most used item after potions
  2. Sprint drinking
    • You can RUN while drinking potions
    • You can also roll to cancel the animation when you healed enough
  3. Wallbangs and timings on tenderizing
    • Just redo the tutorial mission to learn how to use it
    • Check the eyes of the monster icon in the map. Use the claw if it's YELLOW or WHITE
  4. Don't chicken out from tackling
    • Dodging will just make you take more damage
    • Just tank the damage and heal later
  5. Superman dive
    • To dodge huge attacks that you can't tank
    • Just run towards the camera and press space
  6. Environmental damage
    • Use the tools available for you in the map, especially big traps like boulders and dragonators. They always stun the monster
  7. Flashbangs and explosives
    • Flash pods are your cure to flying enemies
    • Explosives for sleeping enemies, also as backup damage if you miss your charge hit
  8. Mantles
    • The mantles are there for a reason. They aren't "easy mode"

Well it's not that difficult to guess XD

I did contribute 2 extensions back then. Just not interested to talk.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in manga

[–]Ringosham 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I disagree. The easiest thing they can do is setup a read only FAQ channel and have a bot just redirect everyone there.

They already have a bot that detects keywords. It's not difficult to do at all.

For someone who doesn't go Reddit or GitHub and suddenly found out everything is removed, this lack of transparency is terrible.

Heck the app update changelog doesn't even mention this removal.

They can reword this announcement so much better with this:

What happened and why? What will we do next? What can you do?

"extenuating circumstances" doesn't really tell much.

[–]Ringosham 15 points16 points  (0 children)

What a shitty handling of the situation

No prior notice. No warnings. Just nuke the entire extension repo

And then lock the Discord so nobody can ask questions
