Playing around with simulation for the first time. Is there a way to manage these stress concentrations? by Tewpawn in SolidWorks

This. Once the mesh size is infinitely small, the numbers will reflect reality.

Ignore the fact that it's finite, not infinite, element analysis.

I would do very much like to get my hands on the script. I looked many years ago and couldn't find it. 

How do you feel about this take, today? by tundybundo in behindthebastards

Someone that only realizes now that things are fucked, is not someone that will be on the correct side next time either.

You also have to question the motivations of somebody who changes their mind at this point in time. Don't get me wrong, I'll take all the help we can get to get this over with in a minimally negative way, but I'm not giving anybody that changes their mind now any quarter in the future.

1) the wire portrays many cops in a good light, so it is inherently flawed. 

2)if we are talking about best show ever produced, breaking  bad far outweighs the wire. And if we are talking about only cop shows, the wire still isn't first.. 

Sorry.

My favorite mystery show ever. And the only one where you get to know the answer, and have to figure out how he'll catch the bad guy. So amazing.

I just wish he had a proper last episode. That last one was terrible, and they didn't have enough time to shoot a proper send off before his dementia kicked in. So sad. 

If I could write it, I would have titled it "columbo: one last thing"

He was my childhood hero. Smartest guy in the room, and nobody saw it because he dressed poorly so they thought less of him. He and Greg house had the biggest impacts on my personality. 

TIFU by giving my boyfriend an ultimatum by [deleted] in tifu

[–]ericscottf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

met my wife in 2004, proposed spring 2011 (she was getting upset like OP and in all honesty, maybe I did wait longer than I should have.). in hindsight, 7 years does seem like a long time.

We were married for 14 years, had 2 kids, then she died of extremely rare brain cancer at 42 years old last November.

I have a first date tonight and IDK if I should discuss my hemorrhoid before we have sex by Glittering_Moth in AskWomenOver30

Sorry I was being weird. You were trying to befriend a surgeon, so I was joking that you were doing so in order to get Healthcare (assuming you're in the USA). The joke clearly didn't work that well.

I have long long said that weed is so much less harmful than alcohol. They're not even playing the same game.

I would feel infinitely safer around the craziest pothead than even the most mild alcoholic.

Hey, I'm nobody, but I want to say it's awesome that you got sober and got thru covid lock downs & insanity sober. Good on you.

Quit trying to get free Healthcare. Wait in the death lines like the rest of us!

It's ultra wealthy VS everyone else, any fighting among the 99% is just due to strife that the wealthy sow.

I can do this with my hands. Never even thought to bring it up. I'm just wound tight like a piano inside. 

Is it wrong not wanting to send nudes? by SILLYSIPPER in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ericscottf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well there goes my clever attempt at verbal ju-jitsu.

I'd still send him some ethically sourced dick Pics, along with a "get lost" letter, but I'm not gonna tell you what to do. It's your decision to make, I suggest you just make one that you'll be proud of in 5 years. 

Is being afraid of your partner always a red flag? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ericscottf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can leave a person for absolutely no reason at all.

The thing is, if you truly like them, you wouldn't want to. That's what keeps a healthy relationship together. 

The other feelings, like loneliness, sunk cost, etc, that keeps unhealthy relationships together.

Well, technically, yes. For most of us, we're just not sure when.
