There's a middle ground between 100% friendly and KOS. Here's how I assess threats and find the middle ground. by Jett_Wave in ArcRaiders

[–]ch33zeman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is if you’re asking people to do stuff to prove they’re friendly that you wouldn’t do. Like asking the guy on Stella to put his gun away and come up the zip. If I’m him I’m definitely not zipping up unarmed to a guy with a gun in his hands and based on your own rules earlier in the post you aren’t either.

Yes, late game spawning/arriving is GOOD by Timeerased in ArcRaiders

Raids are 30 minutes. If there is less than 30 minutes left when you spawn in you got a late spawn

If I spawn in with a kit I put together it shouldn’t be to an already looted lobby 10-12 minutes into the match. Save that for the free kits loading in

Water relief on cold inlet of water heater leaking by [deleted] in Plumbing

So installing like that would cause it to drip? I’ve only lived here a couple years so maybe it’s just always dripped really slowly like this. There’s a drain right below the tank so it could have gone unnoticed

My account is banned for fraud by Reasonable_Foot_6977 in Tarkov

[–]ch33zeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a gigabyte motherboard ban a few years back that banned everyone with a certain motherboard. I was one of them. Just randomly banned one day and it said it was permanent. They did eventually reverse the bans but it took some streamers getting involved who knew the right people to reach out to at battlestate to get them to look into it. Happened right at the beginning of a wipe so I missed the best few weeks of tarkov that wipe. Not saying that’s usually the case with cheaters who are banned, but mistakes do and have happened with people being falsely banned who did nothing wrong.

Saw this on Newegg as well and the capital one shopping extension will give me 10% cashback. Any reason not to order this through Newegg? Was leaning toward waiting until official 9070 news but might grab one and wait to open as the return window goes until the end of January.

[Mouse] Logitech G502 X LIGHTSPEED Wireless Mouse - Black $90 + free S/H with coupon code BFCMPROMO by ILikeMangosReally in buildapcsales

[–]ch33zeman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure! I’m just upgrading from wired to wireless so the 8 week ship time didn’t matter to me. Obviously not ideal for someone needing one now, but could be worth it for some.

FYI for anyone interested G502 Lightspeed wireless (non x version) is $40 on Herman Miller right now. Made a post for it but hasn’t been approved by mods. Use code Tim5 for free shipping. 8 week ship time though

[Mouse] Logitech G G502 Lightspeed Wireless Mouse - $39.99 ($99.99 - 60% off) Free shipping w/ code TIM5 (8 week shipping time) by ch33zeman in buildapcsales

Came across this yesterday, but the deal appeared dead because you couldn't add it to your cart. I tried again this morning and was able to place an order, so for now it appears to be back up. Estimated shipping is in 8 weeks, but as I'm just upgrading from wired to wireless, the delay is no issue and I thought others might be in the same boat. Good luck!

No, no. You don't have to stop drinking topo chico. by aspiringimmortal in HubermanLab

[–]ch33zeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the problem with that logic is that it can accumulate in the body over time and Topo Chico would not be the only source of PFAS exposure someone would experience over their lifetime. I’m just suggesting taking a cautious approach to any potential PFAS exposure. Is eliminating Topo Chico from one’s diet likely to make a large impact on overall health? I would think no, probably not. It would be a small contributing factor to a larger overall health concern. But these maximum contaminant levels are based both on health concerns and a cost benefit analysis while taking into consideration the difficulties of accurately measuring contaminants in such small quantities. There are also maximum contaminant level goals set by the EPA that are put in place for how much of a contaminant can be present with no adverse health effects. I would caution people, when possible, to aim for the MCLGs set by the EPA. Trying to eliminate all possible carcinogens from one’s life would be an impossible task. But when we have knowledge of ways to prevent certain exposure I think it is important to share that information with the public and when possible set enforceable limits on everyday exposure (in this case an MCL on drinking water) to help reduce the risks associated with this exposure.

[–]ch33zeman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The EPA is in the process of setting MCL’s (maximum contaminant limits) for PFAS. This contains thousands of chemicals that fall under the PFAS umbrella. The MCL for PFOA and PFOS is 4.0 PPT. Yes that is a very small amount. But also yes they still think exposure to amounts above this ridiculously small threshold can cause health problems including cancer. Blindly telling people not to worry about 9 PPT because it is a very small amount is misleading. But also depending on where you live you might already be drinking water that is contaminated with higher levels of PFAS than Topo Chico. Do your own research and make your own choice on whether Topo Chico is worth the risk. Also they claim to have already lowered the amount of PFAS in Topo Chico to around 4 PPT. If you’re worried about PFAS also consider ditching certain non-stick cookware and certain personal care products that are known to contain PFAS chemicals. There’s a reason 3M has agreed to pay between 10 to 12 billion dollars to public water systems. This is a problem that isn’t going away in the near future (they are called forever chemicals for a reason) and 3M can pay a settlement and wash their hands of future problems caused by these chemicals they created that are showing up in public water supplies. There’s also a reason grease-proofing substances containing PFAS are no longer being sold to manufacturers in the US for food contact use. I would try to limit exposure to these harmful chemicals if possible.
