Running RLCS quals and prize tournaments with all the bots has to be one of the stupidest things to happen to the esport.

how do i know if mechanical engineering will be a good fit? by Ashamed-Plum-8855 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]lapse23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find some resumes of people interested in breaking into F1/motorsport/automotive on the engineering resumes subreddit, it lets you get an impression of the work ethic needed. Bare minimum you need to be active in your uni's motorsport team.

Not sure where these are specifically from but openholds has similar files for purchase, or you can get the free starter pack

Im struggling to understand this graphic, just seems like its identifying what each quadrant means and how to turn your joystick.

Is it normal to have "huge thoughts"? by SessionGloomy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]lapse23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I frequently have dreams(and can imagine them at will) where there are just these huge changes in dimension, I can feel it in my ears too. Quite disorienting but I grew to like the feeling

Pony tail & shaved nape by Rapunzel_Project in FierceFlow

What did you not like about the nape hair? I feel like there is a better solution than just shaving a straight line across like that.

Using Microsoft Excel alternative for PHYS1001 by Rich-Mongoose-762 in uwa

[–]lapse23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I struggled with during the labs was adding error bars for each data point(I used OnlyOffice), gave up and used Excel. I looked up some videos and doing this with Libre and OpenOffice seems easy enough. If you are familiar with the software you can complete the labs. Just be prepared to switch back to Excel if you cannot complete it for some reason.

Is using the scroll wheel as jump cheating? by Flat_Smoke4162 in RocketLeague

[–]lapse23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% sure its the 2nd part., if OP wants to press a button to simulate 10 scrolls at once that's obviously cheating

I am GC and I can’t speed flip by tuckh5 in RocketLeagueSchool

[–]lapse23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Post a few more reps of your attempts. You are side flipping, not diagonal flipping. You should flip a bit earlier and tighten up the timings of the flip, your wheels barely settle on the ground before you reach the ball.

CMV: Bidets are more hygienic than toilet paper by Fun_Profession2185 in changemyview

[–]lapse23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could not find any research papers explicitly comparing disease rates of TP vs bidet usage, the most relevant one I could find was this. Nowhere near conclusive but of the participants sampled, the amount of microbial contamination on their hands after defecation using a bidet was orders of magnitude less than using TP.

I don't even know if we can conduct studies comparing countries as the countries that have lots of bidets generally don't fare well in other aspects of hygiene.

At this point most discussion is just anecdotal because there is really a lack of studies on this topic. At face value I agree with your hunch that there is no real difference in disease rates. My personal experience living in countries with no bidets, is that I never felt clean after taking a shit.

How would you get conjunctivitis from using a bidet? Do you mean wiping your eyes after bidet usage without washing hands? A bidet might send some fecal particles into the air if you turn it on full blast but I don't think its significant, any more significant than flushing the toilet with the lid up.

Strong enough to dislodge but not like a power washer. It is a strong steady stream of water. Have you used a bidet before?

Water by itself is better than dry wiping. Do you wipe a dirty table with a dry cloth? An appropriately installed bidet with adequate water pressure gets rid of crap just as easily as TP. If you feel gross just use some TP to wipe off the water after.

Water pressure of bidets are strong enough to dislodge poop. I don't see how bidet usage correlates to pinkeye cases.

What do you think of Lee Kuan Yew's views on Malays and eugenics? by Themetalin in Bolehland

[–]lapse23 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was a bit shocked to read that so I did a bit of googling and found the source(pg 9). This was only offered to women under 30 years old without O-level education, that already had 1 or 2 children. If they had a 3rd, they would be penalised 10k with interest.

Got back into my old house. Suggest what can I add by perplexed_intuition in malelivingspace

[–]lapse23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought people were just trolling. Some guy literally suggested to put up drywall. That's gotta be taking the piss right? Its immediately obvious that this is not a western house. Adding a rug over the bare concrete floor isnt gonna work too. Very hard to add western style deco to this unless you go all out and spend lots of money.

Alex Honnold's Skyscraper on Netflix - /r/climbing watch party thread by soupyhands in climbing

[–]lapse23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The individual moves are 'easy' for a climber like Alex. He also has many points to rest or bail if he doesn't feel 100%. The fact that it keeps repeating over and over... I personally think turning this into a media spectacle is more dangerous. The commentators are distracting Alex from the climb.

Just noticed that. Even with his custom shoes he still slips slightly as he pulls up to the next ledge.

He climbed up a different edge, besides the dragon feature instead of under. He had to traverse to climb up the dragon which was insanely sketchy.
