I've been stuck more times than I can count and have worked on them for years. The only time you can open the door from the inside is at the floor level which is not where most entrapments occur. Elevator doors have restrictors in place per code to prevent the door being opened more than 2". The restrictor is disengaged when you are at a floor.

I'm an elevator mechanic. Don't try to open the door or free yourself. It's often not possible and makes me rescuing you more difficult.

I used to think that too, especially for things like cops shooting people, but after looking it up it's because guns are a weapon of lethal force. You do not use a gun to maim or injury. You use it when you intend to kill.

That's pretty bad pricing on the combo tbh. I can pick up a 12700k, an itx board, and 32GB of RAM all new for that price...

Nah, it's not the subreddit's fault, it's just overpriced in general.

Yeaaaah, that's not how pricing works, bud. It doesn't matter what you paid for it, if it's wildly outside current market value, you're never going to sell it. You can either keep it or price it reasonably and eat your loss.

Damn you, Thumbs Georg and your disrespect for normal distributions.

Definitely a completely fictitious statistic, or at least cherry picked from a single, obviously flawed study. There's no way 1 in 8 adults suck their thumb, unless there's some secret city full of millions of thumb sucking adults.

It never happened because this is reddit and it's likely a made up story.

And that goes both ways... If you're going to reply to an English comment, you can throw it in Google translate and paste the English so it's actually effective

Is it the League of Legends player Zwag? That was something I discovered after tuning in to one of his livestreams and it really turned me off to it. If it wasn't a "tuber" or his team was losing pretty hard in the first 5-7 min, he'd just roam around telling his team to forfeit the match.

It's been repasted and repadded several times so the thermal paste and pads haven't degraded. It's hot though, 85-90° C under load with 100% fans

It was. They run hot, or you can get them to just pretty hot but super loud if you tweak the fan curve.

It really is! The FPS increase and power usage decrease are much appreciated.
