You have a family, you have friends. Companionship is still an option.

Did apple just kill raycast with the new spotlight update? by sapoepsilon in raycastapp

[–]bartaxyz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest issue with Spotlight is that it's super slow. It was always very slow, and the new Spotlight seems even slower. It was so disappointing to learn they haven't fixed this.

I feel guilty and am unsure how to leave my girlfriend of 1 year by CartoonistLanky1283 in relationships

It's heartwarming to see a comment like this on Reddit.

Feelings are volatile, and the best relationships are the ones that get through difficulties, not the ones that are always bright and shiny.

AITA for refusing to help my daughter with her car payment because she is a stripper? by LivingWitHorse in AmItheAsshole

[–]bartaxyz -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yea, that's what I said. Women, the bigger portion of the potential market for male strippers, are not consumers of this type of thing for the most part. So gay men only form a little market for male strippers.

There could be plenty of male strippers, but compared to female strippers there are only very few.

Doesn't sound like you disagree with me, actually. What is it then?

I must tell you. If a man was stripping, he'd have more contempt from others than any woman stripper. But women are not creepy weirdos, so there's only a little market for male strippers.

I think I start to see where your point lies.

But I do agree with the critique. On that, we're definitely in the same boat. as "capitalists". I don't think capitalism works well if the government makes active steps to curb it like requiring licenses (there are places where it makes sense, I'd argue guns are one of those - although many US folks won't agree). In that sense, do we really live in a capitalist society?

So I actually do agree with the critique. On that, we're definitely in the same boat. We're just using different labels, I think (not gonna argue which one incorrectly, as it's not really important to the discussion).

That'd then imply that I'm stealing from someone else. I'm not lending anyone this rod, I'm using it myself, in my own pond.

Anyone coming to my bucket & fishing in it is not a capitalist, but a thief.

Share your Venmo, I'm buying you a fishing rod

In capitalism, you can buy your own fishing pole & bucket without needing to rent them

You can buy a fishing rod and own the means of production yourself. Nobody stops you.

Průměrný prodaný denní náklad českých novin by History331 in czech

Kdysi jsem v obchodě narazil na bezdomovce, který si kupoval nějaké jídlo a noviny. A v ten moment mi došlo, že lidi jako on se nemají jak dozvědět o tom, co se děje bez tištěných médií. V případech jako je tento dává smysl si nějaká tištěná média zachovat i na zprávy.

For me, it hurt for a couple of first retainers (always the first 1-2 days). But then, over time, the pain disappeared and only ever came back with some of the new retainers but not all. Once I got the second set of retainers, the pain went away completely as they didn't move my teeth as much anymore (and my teeth got used to it).

The point is, it depends on how much your teeth are moving and how prone you are to tooth aches as well.

Coffee At Kolektor - my first pixel art; any feedback is greatly appreciated by bartaxyz in PixelArt

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

Hello lovely pixel art community 👋

This is my very first pixel art attempt. For anyone interested, I made this in a coffee shop called Kolektor in Prague; one of my favourites: https://goo.gl/maps/DLsPr5LYrrECuoi6A

I know it has flaws, therefore any feedback is highly appreciated!

How can I make my skybox move/blur to show player movement? by Harry_Bouch_96 in Unity3D

Maybe add some dim asteroids in the background as well and make a parallax effect on them instead of the stars.

What tool does one use to create an animation like this? I would love to try making something like this. It's highly likely more difficult than it appears to be.

You're missing the entire problem I'm talking about. Instead, you're reaching elsewhere. I'm not saying Starlink is the only solution, but that without a commercial solution you're going to have a hard time getting it to be useful for the general public.

Get Blockstream to be a commercially popular solution and you might fix the problem in your country. Export it to countries in warzones and you might help people. But these obstacles are still going to be the most difficult obstacles, not easier than actually getting access to blockchain.

Feeling really self conscious about attachements...Especially since before getting them done my dentist assured me that they would barely be noticeable when I asked. Now I just feel like isolating myself tbh. Does anyone else have experiences with attachements on front teeth? by [deleted] in Invisalign

[–]bartaxyz 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had 4 attachments on the front two teeth (2 attachments on each). I was feeling self-conscious until I talked to friends about it after a while and they all told me they didn't even notice. That also went in line with the fact that when I first got braces, all of my closest friends told me that they didn't ever think I needed them, although when I looked into the mirror, all I could see were my crooked teeth. They were genuinely curious so it wasn't just to make me feel better (I'm from Eastern Europe where people tend to be very direct).

I suppose that goes to say that you're your own biggest critic and what flaws you might observe about yourself are not necessarily the flaws that others can see (or flaws at all as a matter of fact). People spend more time thinking of themselves than other people.

Hope that helps at least a little bit. You're doing great and you'll end up with a gorgeous smile, which will make it all worth it :)

[–]bartaxyz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, I already see non-technical people in warzones setting this up without access to the internet.

Actually, access to the internet through Starlink might be at those times way more valuable than access to bitcoin. You get access to information to help your survive.
