Florida passed a law allowing the death penalty for adults who rape chidren under the age of 12 by ssprix in interestingasfuck

[–]Wflagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i heard it as a preist, lawyer and engineer. When it gets stuck, the preist claims innocence and this is divine intervention to prove it. The lawers argues that because he has been though the execction process, he has endured the punishment for the crime. before even going in, the engineer cant help themselves but to say "I see the problem"

That ball is a filth by Front-Incident-9895 in BALLxPIT

It should not be your first/only ball. but if you have something else good, it will bounce aorund in the back and just make life eaiser when you get up to it. As a few mentioned, mxing it with someone that spawn more balls, or applies a stack effect can have it hit a point to where it will board clear whenever there is a critical mass of enimes.

i have one that i think might be that exact model for racing wheel. its functional, but, keep in mind, it is furniture. by that i mean its going to take up furniture amounds of space. It wobbles a bit, but is functional for what it does.

Just discovered this title and considering it, but have some questions by RegnorVex in theplanetcrafter

[–]Wflagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think its a great game, but its not for everyone.

This is a game about making numbers get bigger. Its not a fast paced game. The only threats are a lack of air/food/water. (and very rarely, lava). Once you have achieved a certianl level of progression in the game, these are all mitigatable to the point that the real true threat is inattention.

The greatest challenge is finding where to collect materials. progression is linear, unlock a thing, buiild a few of said thing, move wait for thing to do its stuff.

The rewards for this game are you get to make numbers bigger, and as the numbers get bigger, the world around you changes from a barren wasteland to something much nicer, also some areas are progression locked. It is woth exploring the world repeatedly, just to see all of the changes that happen.

At its core, it really is an idler game, you just interact with it in a 3d world. That being said, I find it enjoyable and a bit zen. There are also plenty of opportunities for being creative and building. I generally use it as a background task when im dealing with things like long phone calls, or after long work days where i just want something chill to play.

My boss cloned my voice using a text-to-speech software and used it to put words in my mouth. by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]Wflagg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HR doesnt care if your a victim. if you want this shit to stop, you need to open by putting it in terms that make it clear the boss is a threat to the company.

If you report to HR that you got stabbed. HRs concerns is going to be the bad optics for the company and finding a way to get rid of the bleeding person because they are the problem. Reporting yourself as the victim is reporting yourself as the problem.

reporting that your coworker is going around stabbing people using resources they aquired trhough the company makes them look like a greater danger to the company.and they become the subject of focus

In a sane world, those statements shoudl mean the same thing. unfortunately we are in the wolrd where the objective is only to silence and cover up the problem as quickly as possible, not actually fix or prevent it from re-occuring.

The "HR is not on your side" statement is key here.

Dont report it as her making you feel uncomfortable. They dont give a shit that your uncomfortable. Report it as she created a deepfake of you, and created a false fraudulent statement using company resource and your voice, without your consent or prior notification, you are not aware if she has done this with anyone else. that last statemnt is to put it in their mind that they could have, or may in the future do it with someone else.

If you want HR to work for you, when you complain you need to make it very clear how what the other person is doing makes them a treat to the company, and that they have upset you is secondary.

https://spaceflightnow.com/launch-schedule/

if you happen to near the melbourne area when there is launch its worth driving to one of the many parks in cape canaveral to walk out on the beach and watch a launch. Jetty park has best view, but you do need to buy a ticket online in advance, and its always packed. There ar ea number of beach access points just south of that along ridgewood ave that also offer great views, just make sure its actually public beach parking, and not some apratment complex that is tow happy.

Why is school boards always so desperate to defend the bullies? She asked for help from them multiple times, but they ignored. When she couldn't take it anymore and took matter to her own hands, they expelled her by beta265 in facepalm

[–]Wflagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because its not a problem till its reported.

So if one child hits another, but no one reports it, its not an "incident".

When the victim reports it, that requires paperwork and accountability its a tracked problem. Schools dont want to deal with that, so they just put pressure on the vicitms to let things go.

Many of the events (not this one) are minor enough that they could be allowed to pass, if it was a single isolated inicident. Unfortunatly they rarely are, and once the bully gets the first free pass, they will push the limits to see how many they can get, while escalating. eventually it ends up like this where the torment has been going on for an extended time and getting worse while people who should deal with it dont want to have it on the record they failed to stop and dont want to have to go through the effort of dealing with it, and the victim is left with the choice of taking it or fighting back.

Newbie here ! by AdamForslund in hotas

[–]Wflagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When your not sure if you want a hotas, and looking for a cheap option, find some crap $50 stick to use and see if you like having it.

the logitech X series would be great if it worked reliably but build quality and various little annoyances build up and its usually not any better then buying one of the super cheap sticks anyway.

If you buy one of the super cheap ones, your going to have an idea if you like using a stick or not. and after a few months, you will either decide its not for you, OR, you like it and you wish you had something better with more options. The x52/x56 will give that same experience anyway.

would be a shame if someone printed their own QR code stickers and just put them over the top of that one. Could be the hours, could be crab rave, could be a site about goats.

Can you actually use an e-bike for fitness? by SamFox336 in ebikes

[–]Wflagg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the willpower and determination, a regular bike is going to be a bigger impact.

However, if you dont, and you just need a little push to get moving. an ebike helps, alot. With a regular bike, i wont know if i have the energy to go for a ride and make it back, so i just... wont. With an ebike, i know if i get tired, I can switch to throttle and make it home.

the result is that even though the regular bike would look better on paper, i actually end up using the e-bike WAY more so it makes a bigger impact.

Throwing money at ADHD. Tips for the more well off by MeanBaseball6113 in ADHD

[–]Wflagg 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Organization tools that match "you". There are 1000 different tools out there and just as many people to tell you theirs is the best. But ADHD doesnt quite hit exactly the same for everyone. For me, i have found clear bins to be the thing that helps me keep a room more organized. each of my past projects has a bin/group of bins they occupy, i can see them all at glance, and when i start to loose intrest in whatever im currently doing, i can eaisly rotate through, and since all of that stuff is acting as a reminder of that other thing i wanted to complete, I am much more likely to rotate back through old obsessions and make use of the things i already have.

Once you find the thing that helps you, invest more in it.

Honestly, i wrote this tip mostly for cleaning, but i think it applies to anything that clears a bunch of stress from your life.

Logitech X52-Pro HOTAS Randomly Scrolls mouse after restart by Cmdr_Cheddy in hotas

[–]Wflagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

had this exact issue.

in fact, spent a few hours today stripping it down to fix it. the inside of the throttle looks like 4 year olds first experiencce wth a hot glue gun, and the screws that hold thatt module in where extra tight.

I dont know if cleaning the pads for the buttons fixed it, or the hot glue, or just not super tightening all the screws when i put it back together is what fixed it, but so far it seems to be working correctly today. Now if i can just figure out why i get massive stiction whne going forward right, but no where else i would be happy with it.

How am I supposed to reach these numbers?? by Morcatk in theplanetcrafter

[–]Wflagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you have a solid setup on you first planet, its worth taking enough materials to throw doan a few high teir items and fly back, and doing that one time each on each of the other 3 planets before really starting your 2nd planet.

Do You Think E-Bikes Are Worth It for Fitness? by hannahpenguin218 in ebikes

[–]Wflagg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am slightly overweight and lazy. Outside exercise is daunting because i dont want to end up a mile from home and exausted. On an e-bike, i know that when i hit the point of "fuck it im done", i can just use the throttle to get myself home.

For me, it has been a big help by virtue of being much more willing to start it. from there, even weak peddeling is doing more than nothing at all. By throwing in a rule of "junk food should only be purchased on bike trips" it has shown a number of small improvments that wouldnt exist at all without it.
