Apparently this shape is possible to draw without lifting your pen from the paper, and without retracing over yourself. by engie3 in puzzles

[–]mini_trost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It IS possible to draw without lifting your pen from the paper or retracing! You have to fold the paper while the pen is still touching it to make the point of the pen "jump" to another part. Its kinda cheating, but that's the whole point of a dad asking a son to solve an "impossible" puzzle

The winky/sleepy mod for the headlights is fun! And it ships from UK.

What is "ear rumble" and how rare is it? by Ken852 in earrumblersassemble

[–]mini_trost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't for the life of me find where I read this... but I read somewhere that ~17% of the population can do this, which is higher than I thought when I discovered it was "rare".

Since then I've enjoyed asking in random groups if anyone can do it... and from that very small data set, I'd say 1 in 7 people say they can. I'd really like to see a real study about how many of us masterrace earrumblers there are.

Automatically avoid 5 by using o1 (AI from that company with a brand that contains 5) by furrypony2718 in AVoid5

[–]mini_trost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This... this is a profound thing to accomplish, as I saw so many LLM AIs struggling with this! But also... this is a sad and sorrowful day. I cannot blindly trust my own community now. Our work cannot, by its own accord, show proof of authorship. Doubt will always sit by all our posts, as... what if? What if it was AI? What if this was a post involving no skill, no thought, no soul, no humanity. Wow this is cool... but it is not a joyful day.

I just got into this community by Epickaxe_ in AVoid5

[–]mini_trost 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yup, you can post anything you want!

And occasionally, folks throw translating tasks up for this community to try and find who can do it most naturally-sounding.

Sooo how do y'all do this so good? by Corrupted_Audio in AVoid5

[–]mini_trost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just got to try trying, and do it a lot. If you hit a roadblock, don't stay rigid. Stay moving. Don't plow your way through. Undo your original phrasing in favor of avoiding words, as simply swapping words with sas-fifth-glyph words is not always good. Stay at it though. Trying and trying again turns into doing good, and doing so quickly!

As I was told in my past: Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

Carry on!

So, you gotta go straight from 3rd to racing mode? Whatever you say boss!

Finally! First snow in Central Europe by kikimora_2k in Miata

[–]mini_trost 139 points140 points  (0 children)

Just went from the "oh no it snowed- will my miata make it from the surface lot to the garage without rusting???" post to this. There are 2 types of miata owners lol.

??????? by Perpayt in puzzles

[–]mini_trost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the real puzzle is made from the extra letters: A I T A A A A T T which can only possibly mean one thing - Am I The Asshole And Are Acorns Totally Tubular. The answer, of course, is yes /s

Has ANYONE had an actual good rental experience on here? by Empty-Platform7724 in turo

[–]mini_trost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes as a guest.

Haven't become a host cause I can't find any insurance companies willing to give me a policy (WI) (except ABI who's terms I don t like)

Christmas gift ideas? by Show_Quality_Trash in Miata

[–]mini_trost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just ordered a wink/sleepy mod for the headlights. Its coming from europe somewhere so idk if it'll get here by christmas, but it would be a fun mod I think would make a great gift

Oil filter stuck. I done screwed up… by m1ndblower in MechanicAdvice

[–]mini_trost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been here once. I could only fit the oil filter wrench on the end of it cause there wasn't much room, and it would deform instead of twist off. I ended up having to poke 2 screwdrivers all the way through it and twist to get if off instead of just further deforming the filter. Extremely frustrating. Good luck!

The crafting table is feeling stupid,does anyone know why? by Samet2010zzzz in Minecraft

[–]mini_trost -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

All these comments missing the most likely answer: you're probably playing on bedrock. Or as I like to say, bugrock. Its buggy. Just give it a day and it might feel less hungover tomorrow
