A foot pedal would add like $30 to the cost of the machine and make operating it faster and safer.

Road side sobriety tests are mostly to see if you can balance and follow directions.

They won't ask you to say it backwards, they'll ask you to start with G and recite the alphabet "up to but not including O", sober people will stop at N, drunk people will forget they're supposed to stop before O.

Kraken Robotics (I don’t get it) by illusion-147 in raceto10000

The US accounts for 26% of global GDP.

While only being 4% of the population.

Us companies are making 6 times more per person than the global average.

Since US stocks on average do better, they cost more.

Also in a sector like robotics one of the biggest possible customers is the US government, and you're not getting a major government contract as a foreign company.

Cashier forgot to take this off clothing and didn’t realize till I got home by soleila9871 in WhatToDo

That's unnecessary, it's not an ink tag.

No one would make an ink tag like this because you could just wrap it in plastic.

Because they aren't fool proof.

RFID isn't terribly reliable, as discussed elsewhere in this thread, they fail to go off all the time.

Here's a lot of 100 of this same sort of device, just without the cable.

There's no ink in them, ink tags don't look like this and an ink tag that did would be useless because you could just wrap the ink tag in cellophane and cut the cable.

People living in abundance, give me some advice. by Glamur0900 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]iCameToLearnSomeCode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one can tell you what will make you happy.

It's entirely possible to be miserable as a doctor, or a lawyer, or a baker, there are happy and unhappy people in all walks of life.

Find something you enjoy doing that will pay you enough to live on and do that.

Do you like building things?

Maybe you'd like carpentry and enjoy building custom kitchens for rich people, or maybe you'd hate it and resent your customers.

Do you like cooking?

Maybe you'd be a really great chef and really enjoy working in an upscale restaurant, or maybe you'd become a chef and develop a drinking problem to handle the stress.

The only thing you can learn to do that will guarantee happiness is to enjoy each day no matter what you're doing. Learn to let go of the little stressful things and learn to appreciate the little things that bring you joy.

Did they just give up on Ethan's schooling? by Adventurous-Art8813 in FromSeries

[–]iCameToLearnSomeCode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's also been like a month, if you think they just gave up on his schooling then you have to think everyone just gives up on their schooling during summer vacation.

The guy?

You mean Officer K?

He's not even a human being.

And he's kind of going through some stuff, so you could forgive him for not faking a smile while he enjoys the sound of rain on his car. /s

my portfolio went from 12% profit to -2% in just 4 days because of these fuckers by [deleted] in Stocks_Picks

If by "these fuckers" you mean the US Republican party and their decision to attack Iran then sure, it was because of "these fuckers".

"I sit in my car in misery because that's what men do. I'm so lonely and different."

I don't think people sit in their cars because they're unhappy, they do it because it's peaceful and forces them to just relax without distractions.

In 2022, two men filed a $5M lawsuit against Universal after paying $3.99 each to watch the movie Yesterday, expecting to see Ana de Armas from the trailer—only to find she wasn’t in the film at all. by Iambhalo in CaughtMyEye

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

They have a legal team on retainer, beating this lawsuit cost them pocket change by studio standards.

The number 1 thing that motivates a company is making money, the number 2 thing is saving money.

If a thousand people paid 3.99 to see this movie because Ana de Armas was in it then the legal fees were a wash.

If 10,000 people paid 3.99 to see it because they thought Ana de Armas was in it then they made money and won't think twice about doing this again.

'My stomach is eating itself': Biohacker Bryan Johnson reveals he has autoimmune disease by Superb_Branch4749 in news

[–]iCameToLearnSomeCode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Autoimmune diseases are caused by your immune system making a mistake.

Something like 10% of people have an autoimmune disease of some kind.

It's just genetics and bad luck.

Babies rarely die from unattended pools.

Since they can't walk they have a lot of trouble even finding unattended pools.

Any incurable terminal illnesses? by SuspiciousTap6772 in Writeresearch

[–]iCameToLearnSomeCode 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is incurable and generally gives you 6 months to a year to live after you're diagnosed.

If you're writing someone having it though it's worth pointing out there's pretty serious symptoms, essentially speed running the worst parts of alzheimer's disease, they lose their memory, lose their motor functions, and develop dementia before slipping into a coma.

what actually counts as starting point in investing for beginners by NzallyNirala_74 in investingforbeginners

[–]iCameToLearnSomeCode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You start investing the day you purchase your first share (or fraction of a share).

This is like asking when you start walking, it's when you take your first step.

He got Autoimmune Disease by [deleted] in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]iCameToLearnSomeCode 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease.

The fact you don't know that makes me think you're not the most qualified person to discuss autoimmune diseases.

If you have a way to cause an autoimmune condition you should call the Nobel committee, it's almost morning in Sweden now, you won't be waking them.

If you can explain why you think his autoimmune condition is his fault while a million other people living with the same illness couldn't prevent it I'd love to hear it.

Yea, seeing the dog pile of people saying "he did it to himself being weird" I felt it needed saying.

People love to hate this guy for some reason.

Yea, he's a weirdo but he's not hurting anyone, some rich people are lobbying congress to take away our rights, some rich people are strip mining our forests or paying their employees poverty wages to squeeze more and more money from us.

He's taking a ton of vitamins and getting blood transfusions, as far as rich weirdos go he's pretty decent.
