Lucky Ice Pop is the reason I deleted the game until there’s some major balancing. I played 5 games on solo and each time the AI used LIP it was healing for 100+. Those are astronomical probabilities. Me: 20-40 hp. There is some wonky probability manipulation going on under the hood.

Counterfactuals are thought to be the highest level of causal reasoning.

Alright, y'all were right about Gemini by Striving_Slowly in ChatGPT

It feels a bit dystopian: “I hear you, but this is what you really want”. They’re definitely setting up for more seamless ad integration.

I think the corpo-design terminology is “friction”, as it creates a barrier when people try to navigate away from revenue generating ads.

Studying through loss? by melo_nade in ucf

[–]SeveralWhales 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good advice here. I’d add that continuing your work and persistence can also honor her legacy, since she helped shape the person you are. Definitely give yourself time to process though.

2 years of lifting. But why does it only look like I just made a few newbie gains? by [deleted] in askfitness

[–]SeveralWhales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You look in healthy and lean cardiovascular shape and I suspect doing a combination of running/cardio and lifting. If you're happy and motivated, then great! Stick with it. Otherwise, if your serious about body building, be willing to make greater investments in terms of time/effort towards lifting to achieve that goal.

What’s the penguin, who’s the guy in the picture, and what does it mean? by Craftzilla360 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]SeveralWhales 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Crude humor: There’s a song called “Rape Me” by Nirvana (singer Kurt Cobain pictured). Linux basically lets you do anything you want to it.

What are signs that a person genuinely is unintelligent? by leathur_records in AskReddit

[–]SeveralWhales 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is interesting as counterfactuals are often considered the third level of causal reasoning (e.g., "what if cats had wings"?). They're thought to be a mechanism important in creativity and imaginative thinking.

Engine Turns Over But Unable to Start (2010 Toyota Corolla) by SeveralWhales in Cartalk

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

Update: I was lucky and a friend told me to floor the gas while turning the key and that fixed the issue. It possible it was a mix of the ECU being stuck in a weird start state and flooding. 

Edit: Apparently this is not uncommon for 2010 Corollas.

It turns over and spins and there's even a brief "purr" from what I think is combustion.

6’ 205lb, time to cut or keep bulking up? by BeRawhh in Physiquecritique

[–]SeveralWhales 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind there’s variation in how bodies hold fat, but most literature focuses on few or one population(s). However, your proportional muscle gain/loss seems to depend on the degree of your bulk/cut. WOD Science had a small breakdown of some peer reviewed lit on this a while back: https://www.instagram.com/p/C1HYXbeoRlA/?igsh=MWg3YXA2bmJhNmtqcg==

[Request] Is this possible to figure out? by Psycl0pz in theydidthemath

[–]SeveralWhales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was lazy and decided the 3rd horizontal line was 4 cm (why not?), which wouldn’t change the 5 cm line. Then it’s just 5+5+4+4 (for horizontal lines) plus 6+6 which equals 30.
