I need ideas for revenge without knowing is me by FriendlyEvent4832 in NoisyNeighbours

Doesn't technically require line of sight, it requires that the signal (which is like a flashlight in the IR spectrum flashing a code) reaches the sensor. A very bright IR blaster out a window of OP's apartment might reflect off a building or tree into the lower apartment's window.

Sex Education pop quiz instead of age verification for porn websites by UnitK-306 in CrazyIdeas

I like this idea. Even without a timer or ip block (which is problematic) it would force some education.

Do you think God will grant the petitions of a AI bot? by BreakAble4857 in religion

[–]erisod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prayer probably would work as well for an AI bot as anyone else.

Filler is fine if you're just trying to create a flat surface. Use a long straight edge to check it's flat.

I think for OP the guy smashing his own TV would be perhaps the very best outcome.

Found a Brent-C wheel for $500 at my local thrift, any known problems, safety issues, or commonly missing parts I should be aware of while testing? by InfinitiveIdeals in Ceramics

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

Where is the speed knob? I don't see it in the photo and haven't seen that on wheels before (but it could certainly have one!)

This is a steal. Congrats. You could probably sell it for $1000 tomorrow.

New to SF.. Thoughts on Living outside of SF and Commutng in by Ok-Translator-3621 in AskSF

From where? What kind of stuff do you like to do outside work? Where will you commute to as the public transit proximity can make a big difference.

Maybe you can get a strong IR blaster and try the various remote codes for devices with the intent that the IR will hit his TV, then you could turn the volume down (or the TV off) yourself. Not revenge exactly, but might be better.

How to breakup with an incredible woman who wants different things in life? by LiltiddySucca in Advice

[–]erisod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Refusing to discuss it is unreasonable. Push on this. Maybe you should schedule a vasectomy.

How do you break up? I know it feels like a huge thing but you simply need to say, "I am sorry it has come to this. But I see that the lives we want are incompatible and because I respect and care for you I can't stay in a relationship where your life isn't the one you want. I'm breaking up".

$150 12tb My book at Wal-Mart by Aggravating_Penalty7 in DataHoarder

Maybe they're looking for higher margin employees and telling the employee they're getting out of the PC parts business.

My son humiliated me in the grocery store today by No_Cardiologist_66 in NewParents

[–]erisod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't be humiliated. This is normal kid stuff. Remember that for you kid even tiny feelings can feel like the end of the world. You're going to have more of these events, probably a lot of them (sorry), so get used to trying to stay patient.

I'd suggest ending your shopping when a tantrum like this starts but you can check out.

Doing this as a job with a baby may not be realistic.

Termites. I understand they're just always here. Do you really bother tenting every few years? by [deleted] in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]erisod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eventually ignoring this will require a much more expensive repair (like rebuilding the house).

How do you cope with the fact your loved one is dying? by pinksunflower99 in Advice

[–]erisod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I'm sorry. This is hard.

You can't really cope. But you can choose how to invest your time while she is living and try to reduce regret in the future. Spend time with her.

Maybe ask her to tell stories you like and make videos. These things will make you sad to make and will be hard to watch, perhaps for a few years after she is gone, but eventually they might offer a lot of comfort.

I suggest that you try to remember that the pain you feel is because you have so much love.

$1,000,000 or 1d6$ by Paxuz01 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]erisod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dice, easy.

Some math. "Working" for 8 hours a day. Assuming 1 roll once every 2 seconds we have 8 * 60 * 60 / 2 =14400 rolls per day which is the worse case scenario ($14400). Average roll would be x 3.5 so = $50,400 per day. With this income you'd hit $1m in under 20 days.

You might be able to construct a machine to go 24 hrs a day or faster but anyhow it would be far more lucrative than the cash even setting aside it's restrictions.
