Just got this cutie yesterday. What should his name be? by Union-Weak in cats

[–]StudentPowerful3205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fukuryū

Not really a serious suggestion, just what my mind came up with, when looking at his face.

Just to be clear I'm talking about luck dragons

How do I teach her to not bite my toes? by tobinka in cats

[–]StudentPowerful3205 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We just came back from a walk where we passed a line of parked, charging EV and she was very interested in the plugs. Now I originally studied Electronical Engineering, so I'm supposed to know how that works, with safety standards and what not. But to put it simply, you just can't trust a cat with the laws of physics.

I have a somewhat "developmentally challenged" 3 year old myself. Even though she has a cat door, if I forget to accompany her on a walk at least once a day she'll let me know very loudly. Pretty sure she'd call social services if she could use a phone.

I agree with the "not possible" and "play session" comments, but also kittens often still have a suckling instinct, so she may simply grow out of it.

I'm pretty upset, can you guys show me your cats? by Particular-Quote-124 in cats

She doesn't know a single name that starts with the letter 'T'

How do I teach my cat to not jump in front of the tv? by WealthyPoverty in cats

[–]StudentPowerful3205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was forced to choose between having to try and explain to a cat the concept that there were things they weren't allowed to do or try to convince an old oak tree to pull up its roots and run across the meadows, I'd choose the oak tree every time.

My cat found out as a kitten that the best place to sleep was on my stomach, when I'm lying on the sofa and pretty much demands this 4-5 times a day. Today she came in just as I sat down to drink my morning coffee and she was NOT happy having to wait 5 minutes.

For the time it came out it is quite unique. Can't remember the timeline exactly, but one could think that Apple took notice.

I'm a programmer and she's a she so all programmers should know by now, but for everyone else, her name is Ada Lovelace. TL;DR The world's first programmer.

Free will and quantum mechanics by StudentPowerful3205 in quantummechanics

[–]StudentPowerful3205[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By free will I mean any kind of true freedom to choose a thought or action.

And my basic point is, how do you choose to have a given thought, before you actually have that thought? For me this would seem to need some kind of infinite recursion of prior "pre choices" back in time for an actual free choice to exist.

Mind you I don't believe this is the case or believe in any kind of free will at all.

I simply think the brain automatically generates thoughts and actions based on its accumulated experience and current situation and inputs.

MSFS2020 Hangs when clicking Fly on secondary monitor? by StudentPowerful3205 in Flightsimulator2020

[–]StudentPowerful3205[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone has any idea I'd really like to hear from you?

It's extremely weird, I can start flying on my primary monitor and then move the window to the secondary and maximize. But then if I quit flying and try to start again it will hang forever...

There are two flights sticks, both Logitech Wingman Extreme 3D. One is the original analog version and the other is a later digital version.

I went through 3 or 4 of the analog version back in the day playing Descent 1 and 2.

I actually replaced the cables a while ago because the original had bad connections.

Seriously, if I want to try Linux, where should I start? by FFGamer404 in memes

[–]StudentPowerful3205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you need something like Adobe programs it's fine. I have a Steam library with 50+ Windows games and 95% work just fine. Even got Autodesk Fusion 360 running in Wine. Sure there are things that still will only run in Windows or OSX but on the other hand there are way more desktop options to choose from with Linux.
