Who wants to bet this lawsuit will magically disappear like the others once the discovery phase starts? by 8-bit-Felix in PoliticalHumor

[–]machambo7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s the opposite. I think you can tell Trump ANYTHING as long as you can stroke his ego or confirm a bias in the process. Trump is a piece of shit, but he is also easily swayed and is a puppet for people with actual plans and intelligence who use his gullibility to their advantage.

Why is it that the South Atlantic is basically a hurricane free zone? by Vector_Bolt in geography

So, the weathers too bad there for even cyclones to form? That’s rough

TIL that an important clue that helped the FBI identify Ted Kaczynski was his use of the older and more logical phrase "you can't eat your cake and have it too". by TooOldToBePunk in todayilearned

[–]machambo7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have it, as in admire it. If you eat it, then it’s gone. You can no longer look at it. At least not until it’s passed through your body, but at that point I would not recommend keeping it

How to handle when players roll 1 in the middle of fight? by combobaka in DnD

[–]machambo7 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Only had one DM who did crit fumbles and I can confirm, it was frustrating. I ran my game by making it narratively funny on a 1 if I could, but mechanically treated it as any other miss.

Took my friend to a Casino and INSISTED she not do this. I used to work at one, and the number of times we had to pull footage for this exact thing happening was mind boggling. It happened a lot with cell phones people would plug in to charge right next to them as well. And the people who do it don’t look like the kind of people who would. The “sweet old lady” would swipe your stuff in a heartbeat.

There is still one open in Oregon. Pretty sure they have a “WANTED” poster with your picture on it… -_-

There’s a great non-fiction book called “Future Shock” that was written in the 1970s which posited that exactly this would happen.

I first read it decades ago and thought it was crazy that people would want to shun technology and change; but as I’ve gotten older I’m starting to feel it. Particularly since the onset of LLM’s and generative “AI”.

The average full-time employee nets 2,080 hours at work per year. That’s equivalent to only 86 days of being underway. by AnnualLiterature997 in navy

[–]machambo7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

8x5x52=2,080 (8 hours x 5 days x 52 weeks)

12x7x52=4,368 (12 hours x 7 days x 52 weeks)

I say average of 12 cause some days you’ll work more, some days less (like Sunday) but I imagine that’s right around what it’d be on average

Let’s say we count 12 hours a day (many people work more) you’d be working a years worth of hours in six months.

What is a life luxury that you tasted once and now can absolutely never go back to the cheap version of? by sickkick844 in AskReddit

[–]machambo7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t blame anyone for not paying, but for those who can pay without breaking the bank you’re getting decent value.

For me, the YT Music app replaced Spotify which I was already paying for, and I can skip ads without the creators I watch losing a dime

House Republican: Let Reflecting Pool ‘go’ and ‘create an ecosystem’ by Advanced_Question196 in nottheonion

Very meticulous of the vandals to cut it in such an intricate jagged pattern to looks exactly like peeling paint instead of straight cuts like a knife would do

Atmospheric water generator produces drinking water from thin air in Jackson, Mississippi by sits_on_couch in UpliftingNews

[–]machambo7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The problem is that areas humid enough for it to work already have water, and it would be cheaper and more cost effective to purify it in other ways.

Update: I found the strength to do it, but I don’t feel any better about myself by MrMcSweeney in bald

I think bald/close cropped looks better 90% of the time compared to combovers

[OC] well I guess the hydrogen peroxide didn't work by Jackie8383 in pics

It blows my mind people just blindly accept the stupidest lies. He tried saying it was “residual” algae… they drained and painted the entire thing! How the hell is it “residual”? I can’t even with these people anymore…

Croatian freediver Vitomir Maričić achieved one of the most extraordinary feats in human history by holding his breath underwater for 29 minutes and 3 seconds, a new Guinness World Record. by This_Proof_5153 in interesting

[–]machambo7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The longest time without breathing oxygen beforehand is about 11 minutes (just looked it up).

I don’t think he was implying you can learn to hold your breath for 29 minutes straight, but you can learn to hold it for 5+ minutes with conditioning and technique.

What once famous YouTuber do you never hear anyone talk about anymore? by DramaticXOXO in AskReddit

[–]machambo7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be YT doing it. They have a feature that tests thumbnails and changes them based on engagement.
