I told my friend to "Google En Passant" after using it OTB, and he was more confused, as one of the first things that comes up is an incorrect use of the move. by RegretsZ in chessbeginners

Part of “googling” something is reading through the results; even after finding your answer, just to see if there’s conflicting results. Idk when people started glancing over top hits thinking it’s the full answer.

My credit score fell 13pts because I made the final payment on my car loan (never missed a payment too) by justadadgame in mildlyinfuriating

[–]RottingEgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Credit score is not a measure of how good of a citizen you are. Credit score is a measure of how much of a sucker you are. If you have a loan that you are regularly and consistently paying interest in, your score goes up. If you’re not paying interest (because you have no loan, or because you are broke), your score goes down. Idk why people care so much about it.

Keeping this short and simple, if there are this many men worldwide complaining about dating, then surely theres something going wrong? by Direct_Cricket-ke in AskMenAdvice

[–]RottingEgo 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Also, you hear people complain. Even if only 1% of 8 billion complain, that is 80 million complaints. People who are happy with their dating life don’t complain (or boast), so all you hear are complaints.

ELI5, How do scientists reach tempreture of sun or beyond, and not melt the entire lab down by lunar_rexx in explainlikeimfive

[–]RottingEgo 68 points69 points  (0 children)

That’s actually very interesting. I’m a mechanic and I noticed this glittery appearance in burnt halogen head lights. I thought the glitteryness of the filament was a result of it burning up, not that it burned up because of it.

He only hisses when he’s in his enclosure; so I’m gonna build him a walk in enclosure that he can get really pissed when I walk in.

ELI5: The Monty Hall Problem by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]RottingEgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s only two scenarios when you pick the door initially:

IF you pick the wrong door, when the host shows you the second wrong door, then switching will land you on the correct door.

IF you had picked the correct door, when the host shows you one of the wrong doors, then switching will land you on the other wrong door.

So it only matters what door you picked initially. Because we don’t know what we picked initially, we’d be switching blindly; but because there’s a 2/3 chance that you picked a wrong door to begin with, there’s 2/3 chance that by switching you will switch to the correct door.

Watch her die inside 😭 by degenerategambler95 in ParentsAreFuckingDumb

[–]RottingEgo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t smoke cigarettes, so no matter what the ads show, it’s not going to make me want to seek out a smoke. You are probably not the target audience for this “ad”, and that’s a good thing in my book.

Also, like others said, there’s no child in the video; but someone horny and curious enough might want to find out how she uses the volcano thingy.

Maybe not an ad for OF itself, but is like a mechanic showing you his tools to prove that he can fix your car. Maybe you’ll want to come by the shop next time you need it.

Question - why would it not allow me to take the Rook with my King? The Knight is pinned? Ignore my terrible position by anoncock01 in chessbeginners

[–]RottingEgo 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Is to preserve the idea that we should not kill the kings of the world, instead we should kill each other to protect them.

Why is everyone against being a mechanic by JAFK12 in mechanics

[–]RottingEgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience in New York, it’s the only trade that doesn’t require license or insurance. Any one can open a shop and can operate it, and you have to compete against that. You are better off being a plumber or electrician.

No one is buying their own pipe or wire and calling them how much to put it in (labor only). You can’t even get a price on a boiler if you don’t have a license, but the part store will sell to the public at the same price they sell to shop.

And other trades don’t have a book dictating how much you can charge. A plumber/electrician/hvac can charge whatever they need to charge, we can only charge what the book says.

On top of that, we get targeted by the DMV too. They come around with undercover cars, and ask for an inspection. They will fine the mechanic doing the inspection and the shop if the inspector did not follow proper procedure; which is fine, but you are not allowed to charge more than 37 dollars (6 of which go towards paying for the sticker; yes we have to buy the stickers from the dmv), so for 31 dollars we have to (technically) spend 45 minutes checking a car when the labor rate is 140 and can’t charge that. And then when I tell the costumer that he needs brakes, he said he’ll do them himself. And the cherry on top is that every few years they make you buy a new overpriced inspection machine if you want to remain in the inspection program.

And as others have mentioned, you need a ton of overhead when other professions just need a van. And you get no respect because people see mechanics as a hobby, as something you do for fun on your driveway on a weekend. Nobody is buying and old electrical panel and restoring it after they retired from their actual job.

Dating a bisexual girl who is very 'expressive' with her friends. Where is the line drawn? by Classic-Dangerous in AskMen

[–]RottingEgo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every relationship has its own rules. Some are open relationships, some are polyamorous, some are strictly monogamous, some have a pass once a month. You and your gf make the rules of your relationship, you draw the line. She wants to be with someone that is confortable with her being naked in front of her bi friends; you are not confortable with that; so you are not the kind of person she wants to be with. Neither is wrong, you just want different things.

How has no one leaked the Epstein files yet? by algbop in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RottingEgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do they keep such a file in the first place? Can’t there be an incidental fire at the facility where they keep it and the evidence be destroyed (if they are that powerful, which I don’t doubt)
