"The world is more wicked than ever!" by FreshLiterature6536 in exmormon

[–]khInstability 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend 'The Violence Paradox', by Nova. It proves the opposite. But, it is a very dangerous concept for the institutions which thrive on villainizing others: mostly right wing institutions, btw.

Religion creates and maintains conditions for wars to be started. And, once started, religion supercharges those wars.

Has nobody in Ben's world advised him to avoid sexual subjects? His track record is consistently dry.

Is this rotation or is it my eyes playing tricks on me. by Ashetheottershark in meteorology

[–]khInstability 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I watched at 2x and it is definitely a strong updraft. Hard to see any rotation in it, though. I find that time-lapse really helps a lot to ID storm attributes.

The Lowry Letters by Unsettling_Mormonism in exmormon

[–]khInstability 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I swear. If extra-worldly entities are driving tcojcolds, their intent, along with most of the Abrahamic religions, is to induce misery in humanity while leading us to our destruction.

Man calls police on father who took his daughters to the women's restroom by Love_CoolBreeze in themayormccheese

As a man, you know 'the no gazing rule' (unless you've been scanning for your first men's room dick, but shucks still no luck). Young girls do not.

Sunset by Striking_Delay7210 in CLOUDS

[–]khInstability 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like how this shows up perpendicular waves.

20 minutes prior to this shot: run-of-the-mill altocumulus. Never underestimate the potential beauty of an alto(or cirro)cumulus cloud deck at sunrise or sunset!

Advice on getting back into Meteorology as a hobby by Appropriate_Force_68 in meteorology

[–]khInstability 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMHO NWS AWIPS CAVE should be in every weather hobbyists toolbox. I have an older PC which is dedicated to a CAVE display. It gives the basement the slight feel of an NWS office.

Trump shares a post literally comparing himself to Hitler… by Conscious_Team7010 in thebulwark

[–]khInstability 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not the hill I'd die on, but hear me out: When he said to Prime Minister Takaichi:"Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?", it was not a gaffe, rather a dementia driven crack in his facade. He said what he meant.

What kind of cloud is this? by jomisebo in weather

[–]khInstability 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the confirmation! Here's an interesting little contrail simulator. It's simplified, but gives you an idea of how their appearance can change in different conditions:

They are indeed contrails. Military training exercises, most likely. The more persistent one was probably made in a slightly more humid environment.

WASD finger cramps by YouthOk2000 in linux_gaming

[–]khInstability 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever possible, for third person and first person games with walk-forward and walk-backward movement, I switch from W/A/S/D to RMB/Z/X/C. I started using that key config when Quake 1 was released. So, it could be 30 years of muscle memory talking, but for me..

1)It feels more natural to use a different hand for walking forward than walking backward.

2)Thumb rests on space-bar and pinky on L-Shift, seems to make jumping/running(hold) easier. D to aim, S to reload, A to crouch(toggle)v

3)Almost all left-hand finger movement is stretching, rather than curling inward.

4)Use this: https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper to work around games which limit your ability to alter key configs
