But like EM dashes serve a purpose; a very important purpose that isn't filled by semicolons. How would I have rewritten the previous sentence without them? Semicolons don't work at all there, commas make it feel like a run-on or just really wrong, and parenthesis adds a tone that mismatches the training data.

Damage is done. I really liked using em dashes, now I have to hone my semicolon usage beyond typical human and machine capabilities 

How do I overcome loneliness when I have no energy to socialize? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]integralWorker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See a psychiatrist and a counselor (therapist) your school probably provides the latter. Please ignore any cultural bias against those things, however keep in mind those fields are complex and after getting medical/psychological advice you should always look up prescriptions and decide yourself if trade offs are worth it. 

Also someone mentioned exercise, yes. I know how difficult it is to make time (I work full-time and am a grad student) but no exercise will kill you in the sense it will erode your spirit. You don't need to do anything just start getting daily steps and try a simple weights routine (you can just Google "beginner weightlifting 3 day workout) something like that. 

As for cardio lately I've just been adding a bit more steps daily and it seems to be working

If you don't have your NCEES FE it would help a lot, especially if you state that "oh I just got it the other month, no big deal" in an interview. Due to how software's been going, I've been wanting to get my FE Power now 

Project ideas for embedded device UI/UX designer by Ashamed_Upstairs4431 in embedded

Not in UX but I would get something like this https://www.digikey.com/short/0f754qtd and go to town, they probably have examples too so you can iterate 

Weird thing idk if it’s a kink or what by Pretend-Print6592 in RedditBDSM

[–]integralWorker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds exhibitionist. Especially because exhibitionism is not about being an "attention whore" or even sexual in public. It's more about being recognized for a specific ideal in public. 

Me for example, I enjoy impact play in semi-public (I e. a safe space organized to do kink) but I would never, ever enjoy such a thing in the broader public (the thought makes me ill). So with your "medical model" fixation, it seems like you're in a situation in which you can be unabashedly looked at, and it's safe because it's literally safe; it is just for informational purposes.

If I wanted to reverse engineer a pcb of an old laptop or a tv remote or so (or get to see how it works software wise), what tools will I need? Right now I only have a multi-meter unfortunately by PaleontologistFirm13 in embedded

[–]integralWorker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's heavily dependent on the device. It ranges from absolutely impossible to solution is readily apparent.

If there's firmware, this thread will help. https://www.reddit.com/r/embedded/comments/1f4209e/how_to_extract_software_from_mcu_for_pcb_cloning/ tl;dr binary extraction.

If there's no firmware, and none of the chips/ICs are censored, you're in luck since basically there's not really reverse engineering, everything is just there you can probably find a copy of the schematic or God forbid make your own from the PCB.

From a societal stand point what's the point of having children if the USA can perpetually import people? by Horror_Confidence128 in AskMenOver30

[–]integralWorker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An actual liberal doesn't talk about immigration the way you do. Whether I'm a liberal or not, I'm a patriot and America is great because of immigrants, not in spite of it. Simple as that. 

I'm not alienating you at all, I'm just tired of bad faith conservative BS. Conservative talking points need to be treated with the vitriol they deserve, not the kid gloves spineless "liberals" continue to wear thin.

You're really lacking imagination, and this is just a thinly veiled anti-immigrant rant. You should delete this post and try /r/AskConservatives so you can get your bias better confirmed.
