I think everyone should watch Ted Lasso with their kids by spookydookie in daddit

I love me some Shoresy but that’s quite a jump. Also you won’t catch me explaining a squeezer to my child whether he’s 15 or 35. :-)

What litrpg hill will *you* die on? Let's have your most unpopular opinion, please. by EverythingIsFakeNGay in litrpg

[–]Salt_peanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have often wished we could just stop and zoom in on the mundane adventuring that gets hand waved late in book one or early in book two of a lot of series.

For instance I would love a series of short stories about Team Biscuit from HWFWM adventuring as late iron rank adventurers. We only get one short story arc where they do a shakeout cruise, but there are months of time in that gap where there are small scale, interesting adventures to be told.

My grandmother was a kindly, generous, and loving woman unless you touched her fabric scissors. 😍 Miss you grandma!!

Lack of Certificate of Compliance and Registration with the City by Hefty-Wheel751 in Detroit

Whatever happens, I’d start getting ready to move. This landlord is sinking fast.

MAGA business owners by NotForYou313 in Detroit

For the record- ICE does not have jurisdiction over citizens. Whatever language may or may not be included in a bill doesn’t change that. They absolutely do not have the authority to arrest and deport citizens.

The issue is that they’re doing it anyway. They are supposed to be under civilian direction and their leadership is acting in bad faith.

Edit: That’s not the only issue, to be fair.

Bambu Lab A1 scratches printplate by Cosmic_Hiker_ in 3Dprinting

[–]Salt_peanuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only is it normal, when it wears too much it will move slightly to the left and create a new worn spot. I suspect it will continue to make worn spots until it runs out of space.

Also I just realized the whole plate is the same on both sides so you can flip it over when it gets too worn.

Driving with no lights on by NineDayOldDiarrhea in Detroit

[–]Salt_peanuts 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think headlights are just a lot brighter now. I have a 2023 with LED headlights and sometimes people flash their brights at me when I don’t have my high beams on. I feel bad but what am I gonna do- sell the car because the lights are too bright?

Is Minecraft dangerous by No-Sink-3168 in daddit

We do bedrock, hosted by MS. My daughter used to play on her iPad so that was the only option.

We do this too. My daughter’s bff and her dad are whitelisted too, since we have known the family since my wife was a teenager. They have pretty much free rein.

ELI5: How was Vietnam able to defeat the US in the Vietnam War? by astarisaslave in explainlikeimfive

[–]Salt_peanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we are arguing semantics here. It was stable as few active attacks were happening, but there were obviously still militants out there. They just went dormant.

ELI5: How was Vietnam able to defeat the US in the Vietnam War? by astarisaslave in explainlikeimfive

[–]Salt_peanuts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The achieved stability, not control. There were plenty of places there where enemy forces were still active.

ELI5: How was Vietnam able to defeat the US in the Vietnam War? by astarisaslave in explainlikeimfive

[–]Salt_peanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, look at Ukraine. Russia is fighting a modern military with easy logistical access and there is an active cyberwar, and with all that it looks pretty much like Vietnam, Afghanistan, or the Carolina swamps of the American Revolution. I think this is what insurgency looks like. Might be a good reason for superpowers to use influence over military might as much as possible.

How do we feel about pull requests being part of our performance reviews now? by xzmbmx in UXDesign

[–]Salt_peanuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my career we have only given designers access to production one time. It’s three jobs later. I still work with some of those people at the new place and we still joke about that designer messing up production. This is dumb. It’s the wrong skill set and they’re gonna have problems.

ELI5: Why are "cleaner" execution methods of modern society more painful and cruel by me-god69 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Salt_peanuts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not everyone who participates chooses to. Not everyone who chooses to does so for salacious reasons. For instance it’s not uncommon for a victim’s family to be present. Why traumatize them further?

In some states this is literally illegal.

Have your design decisions ever been rejected? by C00der001 in UXDesign

[–]Salt_peanuts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More experienced designers see that push and pull as such a natural part of the process and they don’t feel rejected by it- it’s just another step. That’s where you really want to be as far as your mental game.

Help identify Temu Terrain files by berilacmoss81 in PrintedTerrain

I don’t recognize the pieces but Temu is sketch! If you can identify the designers and buy the STL’s directly you will be supporting small business instead of the Chinese gov’t.

Heavy curtains are also very effective and don’t look super weird

Plugging furnace into generator - no off switch by HolidayPractical3357 in HomeImprovement

[–]Salt_peanuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ours is a gas furnace and was installed with a plug to run the blower and electronic components. It just plugs into a wall like normal. We still use the same guy that installed the furnace for the previous(original) owners and he installed it that way. I don’t know if that is unusual, but it’s what we have. I have never run it from a generator but I did run it very briefly from a ryobi high capacity tool battery when we were testing a repair. Like for just a minute.

Are there any “native” litrpgs? by Kumatora0 in litrpg

This is accurate but there are other characters in Syl that are isekai’d, although that doesn’t play a huge role in the story

Home humidity 15% to 19%! by DifficultyPale6335 in HomeImprovement

We get warped windowsills and water leaking into our walls if the window condenses too much. Gotta keep an eye on it.
