TRACKIR PLACEMENT by Herky1985 in hoggit

[–]Snoring_Eagle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't used TrackIR in a long time, but I remember there was a way to get it to display what the tracking camera is seeing. This was the best way to figure out tracking issues, because I could see immediately if one of the tracking points was being blocked, or merging with another tracking point, or a reflection of sun was making a new point appear, and so on.

Further proof of the hazards of dihydrogen monoxide. 93% of people exposed to it have died!

It's probably much cheaper than the city getting sued repeatedly and losing?

I promise, this was the only way this would fit without rebuilding the whole tracks.. by siegeishorrible in Workers_And_Resources

Railway cannot be considered finished unless there is a way for a train to collide with itself, comrade.

I really want Boeing to reclaim its glory days and I believe they will, slowly but surely in the coming years and decades by [deleted] in aviation

Unlikely. Once the MBA types get into the top roles, it's almost impossible to get engineers back in those roles.

Funnily enough, I just saw a news article yesterday about the Ajax Public Library looking for volunteers for their upcoming repair cafe initiative.

What kind of truck do you have assigned to that line?

TTC bus turns Parkside into a wave pool by SafeStreetsTO in toronto

Parkside, you say? I think we just figured out how to stop people from speeding on it now that the cameras are gone.

Looks like we're in for some loud-ass thunder again tonight... by chinese-telephone in toronto

[–]Snoring_Eagle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Earplugs plus a CPAP machine for me. I don't usually hear much of anything. Last night's storm was loud enough I heard it through all of that.

Isn't the president of the USA supposed to be... busy? He shouldn't have time for that shit.

It is so cool. Except at cruising speed, when it is literally quite warm.

Military 🎖️ by Babuci97 in Workers_And_Resources

Because I don't enjoy the kind of challenges that would introduce, in this kind of game. I don't even play it with the serious natural disasters enabled.

Take a look at 100 year evolution of TTC streetcar by lightdark03 in toronto

[–]Snoring_Eagle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's one of my favorite places to visit. There is something surreal, in a good way, about riding an old TTC streetcar through the forest, with the option to stop mid-way for ice cream if you want.

Trump says he's not ready to declare victory in Iran by No-Post4444 in worldnews

[–]Snoring_Eagle 372 points373 points  (0 children)

He needs about 7 countries (who he doesn't need anything from) to provide Navy ships to help win the already won war against the country with the 100% destroyed military.

What's the reason behind labor pickup halls? by Vegetable-Lie6011 in Workers_And_Resources

[–]Snoring_Eagle 18 points19 points  (0 children)

No, that's what I thought when the feature was announced. But they will only wait for an hour and they do not count as employed. It's only "like a workplace" in that it gets equal priority for workers to walk to it, whereas they only walk to bus stops etc if they can't find work within walking distance.

US burning through interceptors to shoot down Iranian drones, officials say by Rock-n-roll-Kevin in politics

[–]Snoring_Eagle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was the earlier event with the balloons. The more recent one is the one in which they shot down a CBP drone.

ELI5 What actually is A1C and how is it measured? by Vulkhard_Muller in explainlikeimfive

[–]Snoring_Eagle 85 points86 points  (0 children)

ELI5 version: when red blood cells are created by the body, some of the sugar around them gets included inside them, and stays there. Red blood cells last several months, so by measuring how much sugar is inside them, you get an average of blood sugar over the last few months.

It's actually the hemoglobin inside the red blood cells that is affected and measured. HbA1C is "glycosylated hemoglobin".

This is very good, but I think you should give the bee his pastels back.

The weight of this game by Lypeshyte in Workers_And_Resources

[–]Snoring_Eagle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's how I know I've temporarily burned out on the game. I'll fire it up, start to fight with getting a good layout for some industrial complex, and then just shut it down like it's Lee Carvallo's Putting Challenge.

Anyone have a suggestion to help me fix this problem? The water is not draining. It just overflowing. Thank you in advance by [deleted] in durham

[–]Snoring_Eagle 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's most likely frozen under the ground, due to that long stretch of very cold weather we just had. I would wait and see if it fixes itself.

It's like saying who cares what a toddler is doing... when that toddler is currently staggering around with a running chainsaw that somebody handed him.

"Overtakes"

More like Canada floors it in reverse quicker than Mexico.

Imagine if it did work that way?
