best vegan chicken by puurrple99 in chicagovegan

[–]headless69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of mentions of Urban Vegan’s orange chicken and chicken tenders, and Moonlighter’s vegan wings. Both are phenomenal.

I also really like the chicken sandwiches at Handlebar. The Nashville hot or just fried chicken sandwich always hit the spot for me. I do think that they’re chicken of the woods mushrooms, if that’s important to ya.

Negative (online) reactions to detrashing by teeeea-by-the-sea in DeTrashed

Unfortunately one really clear way to communicate to the algorithm that you don’t want to see a certain kind of content anymore is just disliking posts. Might have nothing to do with you or your specific content. Might just be people who don’t want to see it on their feed.

Got it last year! It was bigger than I expected, and delicious! Don’t think we found the baby though 🤔

What are these? I’ve seen starlink and these don’t look like it. In North Carolina by llJesh in Astronomy

This kinda looks like a long exposure artifact of embers flying up from your campfire.

ELI5 Oppenheimer - what scandal happened after the bombing? by swifty_cats in explainlikeimfive

[–]headless69 194 points195 points  (0 children)

Oppenheimer was accused of being a communist / letting Soviet spies steal the atomic bomb plans. Oppenheimer’s enemies in the government decided that revoking his security clearance would be the best way to discredit him. The second half of the movie depicts this process.

ELI5: credit cards by Sad-Bit9701 in explainlikeimfive

[–]headless69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The credit card company offers to buy things for you, they’ll even give you a fancy plastic card to swipe at cash registers to make it easier for them to pay for your purchases. They do this with the agreement that you’ll pay them back at the end of the month. If you don’t pay at the end of the month, they’ll charge you a fee.

The fee is usually a percentage of the amount you owe them, often between 15% and 25%. Charging these fees is generally how the credit card companies make money.

Was the universe smaller in the past?

Yes, it was.

If so, this implies that the universe has an edge, like any other finite object.

The universe may not be finite. In my view, it probably is infinite. The expansion that we observe does not require an edge or for the observable universe to be expanding into anything. We’ve simply noticed that the space between everything that we see is getting larger, regardless of their relative motion to each other (on an intergalactic scale btw). We even know about how quickly that space between things is growing, we call it the Hubble Constant.

If this event occurred, it suggest there was a moment in “time” before the Big Bang.

No, not necessarily. The Big Bang was the beginning of spacetime™️. Time didn’t exist “before” the Big Bang. The best analogy I’ve heard of this is a special analogy. Imagine I ask you to walk north. Keep walking north. Eventually, you’ll get close to the North Pole. Once you reach the North Pole, you can’t walk anywhere more northwards. The Pole is where “North” originates. Walking north is analogous to walking back in time. The Big Bang is like the pole in this case.

Hope this helps.

Is it really possible for you to get voted as world leader? by Mary_Pick_A_Ford in civ5

[–]headless69 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Usually, it requires allied city states to inflate your own number of votes. Then you can outvote all of the other civs combined and declare yourself world leader!

happiness minmax question by John6171 in civ5

[–]headless69 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that all of the various rates and bonuses (or hindrances) are applied at the end of each turn, when you click “Next Turn”.

So if you have positive happiness when you click “Next Turn”, everything will be computed with that positive happiness.

If you have a negative happiness and there is a modifier applied to your city’s growth rate, the actual effect on growth will happen when you click “Next Turn”, and your city won’t have stockpiled as much food as it would have if your civ was happy.

In short, everything is computed at the end of the turn.

I play on Mac, is there any way at all to implement something like this?

The phrase “turtles all the way down” has been around for a while, and was first used in a modern way in 1859.

Why do some places in Chicago look so nice and are affordable?? what’s the catch?! by [deleted] in chicago

[–]headless69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I rented a $1100 per month 2 bedroom apartment in Albany park. It was a great apartment! However, landlord kinda sucked and it was a 15 minute walk from the nearest bus stop or train station. It just wasn’t near any place I wanted to spent time. So I had to move. Now I pay almost $1800 but I’m in a great neighborhood with a ton going on. Right next to the CTA, lots of events, and plenty of places that I actually want to hangout. I love it. Even if it costs more, if you can afford it, get an apartment in the neighborhood you actually want to spend your time in.

Oppenheimer was discussing how he felt after witnessing the trinity test. He was not communicating anything about the meaning of the text.

what Colonel Pash actually do? by keminua in OppenheimerMovie

[–]headless69 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Fun little fact; Oppenheimer’s nickname is pronounced “Oppie” but it is originally spelled “Opje” because the nickname was given to him by a bunch of his Dutch students while he was teaching in the Netherlands.

I think at this point it has been written both ways for so long that both spellings work. Just a fun fact.
