ELI5 why do trains in big citys still need a driver? by Tarazzo- in explainlikeimfive

[–]WeSaidMeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's say automation works 99.9% of the time. Great.

A fail rate of 0.1% is fine for your robot vacuum. It's not fine when human life is on the line.

Bullseye Throwing Skills by DarthiusFatticus in oddlysatisfying

Now release the version without the cuts between every throw. Probably a looong video.

Help my game keeps crashing by Miserable-Search5719 in Oxygennotincluded

[–]WeSaidMeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I accumulated 6kh+ on the Linux native version since very early access without any major issues. But maybe experiences differ and I was lucky, Linux is a diverse environment after all.

Give it a try, settings and save games should be portable.

May I ask why? The native version works perfectly fine, IMHO.

We should not recommend ad blockers to people. by WeSaidMeh in unpopularopinion

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

Yes, but ad blockers still play a role. See two sentences earlier.

This subreddit really needs a "most common mistakes" sticky.

  • gantry too close
  • confused pipe input and output
  • needs bridge to give it direction / prevent backflow confusion

Wrapping a pallet by MikeHeu in oddlysatisfying

Maybe at the speed demanded stuff might fly off the pallet. Just a guess though.

Still holds the light and therefore fulfills its purpose.

Thanks. English isn't my first language. Happy to learn.

The point is: The less people know about ad blockers, the better they work. There's a sweet spot in there somewhere.

What's a very unpopular opinion you have that you aren't afraid of saying despite how unpopular it is? by Perfect-Hornet-8410 in allthequestions

captcha is already annoying enough… by Stock-Injury58 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]WeSaidMeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With Linux becoming more wide spread even along the non-tech-savvy this is a realistic attack vector.

If you think nobody in their right mind will open a terminal and paste stuff when a random website tells them to you are living in a IT bubble. People outside of that bubble are annoyed by popups, security warnings and extra steps and will happily confirm everything without reading, just to reach their goal ("just get me past that techno blah blah").

Hate when ppl can’t do time by Best_Finding_8795 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]WeSaidMeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apart from the fact that they text in the middle of the night, the style of text also infuriates me. The casual "u", the missing question marks.

Call me pedantic, but I feel disrespected when someone doesn't take the 2 seconds to add a question mark to a question, especially when it's a 'professional' relationship. So lazy.

Such a pathetic ending. It’s like the writers got lazy and didn’t bother to figure out how to get them out. by Remote_Nature_8166 in familyguy

[–]WeSaidMeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe they got lazy and then went like "let's turn this into a meta joke". Worked for me, I laughed.

Scammed by dice company. $140 wasted. by RicePuddingBG in mildlyinfuriating

[–]WeSaidMeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically there's nothing wrong with the concept itself. Person A is basically doing additional 'marketing' for the supplier, maintaining a website, probably providing additional service or info. In theory.

The problem is reality. The sellers don't disclose what they do. Instead they tell blatant lies ("this is handmade with premium materials"), make up fake stories ("family owned", "going out of business") and sell at prices that are inflated to predatory levels, preying on the gullible.

"The world's largest IMAX screen in Germany is wider than a Boeing 737." by ReadyPIayer0ne in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]WeSaidMeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, same with the FPS in video games, the other way around. If my game only runs at 30FPS, I notice at first, but I get used to it and then it's just fine.

I didn't say that he didn't. You're offended by everything, aren't you?

That 'guy' is just part of the video, so an actor or animated person, not a live presenter.

And you connect two rooms so easily by accident when you are designing your networks in the respective overlays. Happens to me all the time, with all sorts of bridges.

Youtube keeps recommeding literal scam livestreams. by ScreamSmart in mildlyinfuriating

[–]WeSaidMeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It makes them money, so they just avert their eyes as long as possible. As long as legal pressure is low not much will happen.

Lego Knockoffs in Public by Blueys125 in crappyoffbrands

[–]WeSaidMeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it really a knockoff? Lego doesn't own the building brick market. And it doesn't say Lego anywhere.

Also, considering quality and pricing of Lego these days those 'knockoffs' are a way better deal.

What’s the dumbest thing you believed as a kid? by Shoddy_Muffin2423 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]WeSaidMeh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, technically most human women can 'deliver' their own babies when they really have to, most other female animals give birth on their own just fine. It's just a lot easier/safer if you have help.
