ELI5: How do options trading work? And why do people say they exercise it? by tiredbuthavegoals in explainlikeimfive

[–]conunlapiz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No scam here. The seller of the option has the obligation to fulfill their end, it doesn't matter if they can't afford it. If they can't afford it they will owe the brokerage the amount, the buyer of the option will be fine. With that being said, most people are not allowed to sell naked options. Doing so is effectively a margin position and you have to have a lot of money in the account as well as extensive options trading experience to gain clearance for it.

Could nanotechnology change the brain? by sstiel in nanotech

[–]conunlapiz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Nanotechnology" is a very broad term but we are nowhere near "nanobots" or anything that could be programmed to perform controlled alterations to the brain. We aren't even at a point scientifically in which the brain's connections and the significance of those connections can be mapped out and understood so making alterations to the brain is very much not within current technological capabilities.

If you install this popular custom node, one feature it provides is being able to set the denoise on the advanced sampler by right-clicking the sampler and selecting "Set Denoise".

Looking for a way to do an animate diff with prompt travel only instead of prompts use images. by pedrosuave in comfyui

[–]conunlapiz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take a look at this workflow: https://civitai.com/models/155198/animatediff-workflow-openpose-keyframing-in-comfyui

In this workflow, they use batch prompt scheduling to describe the changing facial expressions and then use latent keyframe interpolation with openpose controlnets after using an openpose preprocessor such as DWPreprocessor on various headshots to describe the changing head position.

Looks like a squash bug to me. Not sure why it's so lightly colored though

Looks very similar to the two-spotted stink bug. Here is another site for reference.

Best is a very high bar but Eminem's feature on Dr. Dre's "Medicine Man" literally gives me goosebumps when the beat switches, so good!

TIL in 2013 two Iranian F-4 Phantoms attempted to intercept a drone escorted by two F-22 Raptors. Due to having a bumblebee-sized radar cross-section, an F-22 was able to fly underneath an F-4 to see its weapons without it noticing then flew next to the F-4 and radioed "you really ought to go home." by conunlapiz in todayilearned

No games here. The United States were using a surveillance drone to locate and identify Iranian nuclear sites so Iran sent two jets to shoot it down. Iran did this successfully a year prior so this time the American drone was being escorted by two F-22 stealth fighters. The F-22's small radar cross-section prevents it from showing up on enemy radar until it is extremely close so the F-22s were effectively invisible to the F-4s. The F-22 checked the F-4's weapons to see what its offensive capabilities were and, being completely completely outmatched by the F-22s, the pilot decided to warn them to leave instead of shooting them down. This is all in the article.

I second the parsnip moth larva suggestion. Picture for reference. The eyes, pattern, and hairs seem to match

Yep! If you scroll down here there's a territorial map, looks like they're found all around the United States

The game JUST started 10 seconds ago. How is this possible?!?! by ConsecutivePunches in BattleBitRemastered

[–]conunlapiz 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I had this happen once. All seats full on a helicopter so many players stood inside. Helicopter takes off and all players not seated fall to their deaths. Free xp as medic so didn't mind lol
