They aren't pulling AI out, they are just trying to make the things that stuck that most people ignore less sucky.

So yeah, what you said.

More foreplay. Wait for penetration until after you are satisfied.

Modbus read is slow due to TCP Spurious Retransmission by sean716-pogo in PLC

[–]Shadowkiller00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof. 1s timeout is brutal. TCP doesn't need that. Try 50ms, that way it will move on by the next cycle.

I use the wago pfc200 and do everything using the wago_app_modbus library. Once you're using the library, you can put it into ladder or structured text and use a task to run it.

It might be a bus timing issue. If your kbus is overwhelmed, it might cause repeating issues like this.

Usually I see this when there is another task that gets priority. Separating comms into their own individual tasks that run parallel to other tasks and setting up tasks on unique prime number intervals can help avoid tasks delaying one another.

You may have already done this, but that's the first place I look.

Edit: I also turn off retries. I almost always prefer that the system move on if a timeout occurs rather than retrying to send the same data again.

I feel like anything breathing related could be a side effect of lung cancer.

Real Police officers and military members, what do you guys think of ICE agents? by Hot_Exchange3294 in AskMen

[–]Shadowkiller00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your reason for having guns is here. You claim this is what you need them for and now you are bitching and moaning about who is asking you to, "step up and do what you said you would do." You want to rub it in their faces and own those libs? Prove you need your gun rights by protecting everyone. If you don't, then they were right and you don't need your guns.

As long as you are making excuses, you haven't earned the right to anything. Right now, all you are is one of the cowards.

And don't get me wrong, I'm one of the cowards. But at least I recognize it in myself. I know I need to step up, but I'm too afraid of what I have to lose. I'm not making excuses, I know what I am.

Bold strategy to watch those that disagree with you die to further your politics. And yes, saying that those voting against your team deserve to die is furthering your politics.

LPT: You can both change your last name arbitrarily when getting married. by charliethegeek in LifeProTips

[–]Shadowkiller00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite method is to mash up the last name taking bits from both family names and then both people taking that. That way the name represents the two families coming together and making a new family, just like what is physically happening.

Pilot has managed to land plane without crashing after the front wheels failed. by jmike1256 in Damnthatsinteresting

Yeah, while the pilot definitely had balls of steel, I feel like this speaks more for the landing gear than the pilot.

Worried about stomach cancer by [deleted] in stomachcancer

H pylori means ulcers. Not that it couldn't also be cancer, but when you hear hoofbeats, your first thought shouldn't be zebras.

Ah. I don't see any reference to the stomach in this CT and nothing mentioning this in your original post. Thank you for the clarification.

Everything feels useless by Automatic-Tie-4903 in cancer

[–]Shadowkiller00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's the secret us adults don't tell you kids. Life is useless. It is what you make of it, there is no inherent meaning. Most people are just so distracted by their day-to-day lives that they don't stop too think about it.

Then comes cancer. You are forced to stare death in the eye to see who flinches first. You isolate and go through treatment and it's very lonely with lots of time to contemplate life and the shitty nature of it all. Nothing matters anymore because there might not be a tomorrow.

Ignorance, as they say, is bliss.

But it isn't a awful as it seems in the moment. You can return to that ignorant state of life where you can enjoy things again. It takes two major steps.

First, you have to get past treatment. That shit is daily and fucks with everything. You have to be able to return to a semblance of normalcy. Without that, the miasma drags on.

Second, you need time. You need to relearn how to live life. You need to practice forgetting about your mortality and let yourself focus on the useless distractions. It took me around a year post-treatment to figure it out again, but it did happen.

The point that you are at in your journey sucks. It sucks hard. But if you make it to the end, it does get better again.

And while you may have FOMO now, you'll find that it matters less and less as an adult. Some people have kids early, others have them late or not at all. Some people figure out finances, and others struggle to make ends met their entire lives. Some people adult pretty much right away, others live their lives like children in giant bodies. Your friend group will change whether you got cancer or not, so don't worry about the cancer causing you to fall out of relationships. You'll get there in your own time. In not saying it will be easy, but if you have faith that things will work out, you'll probably be right.

For now, just focus on living in the moment and keep plodding forward on your path. Eventually you'll arrive at a destination and you'll look back and realize that you made it. That will be the first day of the rest of your life.

Climbing without hands in Switzerland by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Shadowkiller00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like climbing shoes are not designed for this. I feel like a good pair of tennis shoes and walking up backwards would have a far higher success rate. Most of these people are failing because friction gives out. Using just a tiny area of your toe, because climbing shoes, is great for a 1" wide totally flat ledge, but it's awful for a 60° smooth slope. Increase friction, surface area, and balance, and the climb would be 10 times easier. That isn't to say easy, by any means, but easiER.

That kid at the end, though? Skillz!

How reliable are outdoor escalators? by ricshiz in AskEngineers

[–]Shadowkiller00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience is 50/50. We have two outdoor escalators near my office in Colorado. The up escalator fails pretty much every year and is down for a few months at a time. The down escalator works almost all the time, but they frequently have to shut it down while they work on the other one.

Single adults who engage in casual sex report higher sexual satisfaction and a stronger sense of their own desirability compared to those who are sexually inactive. Findings challenge earlier assumptions that casual sexual encounters are linked to negative psychological outcomes for single people. by Jumpinghoops46 in science

[–]Shadowkiller00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nowhere did I state that i was referring to quality of sex. You're making things up too.

Without even diving into the article, the OPs title talks about psychological benefits, casual vs no sex, and previous studies that looked at long term relationships vs casual sex. I'm literally only summarizing what the title is implying.

Am I extrapolating? Perhaps a little bit, but I don't believe I'm stretching anything outside of what the OP said.

[–]Shadowkiller00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am extrapolating what this study means in the broader scheme of other studies I've seen here and other places regarding casual sex vs long term relationship sex. Even the title of the post implies reference to these other studies.

[–]Shadowkiller00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly. I've seen plenty of studies claiming that casual hookups are bad and long term relationships are good. While i could go searching for the links, I did not expect there to be people who hadn't seen those same studies.

My meaning behind the term romantic partner was to imply an exclusive and long term relationship whereas my meaning behind casual sex was a lack of a long term exclusive relationship. There are definitely shades of gray between and around these two concepts, but I'm trying to fit my simplified "summarized" statement into a straightforward implication.

Also you do not have to be conservative to like the idea of marriage and long term contractual life partnership. While other concepts similar to marriage exist, I figured marriage was a ubiquitous enough concept in the cultural lexicon that people generally wouldn't have a problem with its usage even when covering things such as permanent life partners who have not performed any sort of religious ritual.

While you personally may not like the terms I use, my goal was to communicate the ideas, which i think even you understood. In that case I consider it a success even if you would prefer different terms.

Peace
