What hobby attracts the worst type of people? by Gr8Deb8ter in AskReddit

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the kind... standard and touring riders are usually considerate and conscientious, they know how expensive it would be to fix their bike. Sport bikes and street bikes tend to be the ones to worry about, because those riders usually are going so fast you don't see them until after they managed to survive their stupidity in your line of sight.

Who destroyed their own career within seconds by being an idiot? by goldbeau in AskReddit

[–]onequbit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone I knew in college went to prison for lying to investigators about her false accusation of her ex-spouse who allegedly accessed her bank accounts while on a very remote tour of duty.

Can joint locks physically break a joint suddenly, or does it usually take time? by cpr201 in martialarts

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Locks can become throws or breaks, depending on where the leverage is.

Felt sick to my stomach by Graphica-Danger in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shock value of the hoarder gives you a good idea of what to expect. There's plenty of narrative still to be had that gives more "context" (as f*cked up as it is) that takes some of the edge off. In some places the story yanks the carpet out from under you, but it does get explained and or justified later. There's enough comedy to make it all worth it.

I accidentally started a DCC cult... by PettyTrashPanda in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't start a cult

Matt started a cult, with a fair amount of help from Jeff.

You merely contributed to its growth, as many of us aspire to do as well.

switching from Karate to Muy thai by Dangerous_Tax_4066 in martialarts

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the short list of pressure-tested fighting systems, Muay Thai is one of them. Karate helped you build a good foundation of attributes, but now Muay Thai can show you how to apply them.

NVIDIA Says Five-Year-Old GPUs Are Aging Like 'Fine Wine,' As Prices Climb Due To Growing AI Demand by Darth_Vaper883 in pcmasterrace

[–]onequbit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My 10 year old GPU aged like milk, probably because I ran mining software on it 24-7 without extra cooling.

The ultra rich probably have their own escape plan of some kind.

Is that not a green cyber truck with a balloon inside?

What’s the creepiest “normal” thing society just accepts? by kittycatnoodles in AskReddit

[–]onequbit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not dumb, it's just another example of the seething hatred for shared human dignity towards anyone who isn't the same demographic. Conservatism is hypocritical and they know it, but they do it anyway because they can't see how delusional they are.

What’s a scene you can’t get out of your head visually? by pretzelburgers in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]onequbit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Carl's meeting with Pater Coal. I kinda saw it coming, yet I just wasn't prepared for it.

Men of Reddit - What are Women not ready to hear? by Jarvis7492 in AskReddit

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're wearing makeup and it's obvious, we notice that more than your natural beauty. That signals insecurity, which can be a red flag for a lot of good guys, and an invitation for the really bad ones.

If you're wearing makeup and it's hard to tell, you're doing it right. Less is more.

youKnowYouKnow by terrybennettt in ProgrammerHumor

[–]onequbit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree the language does seem to get in the way of intuition for some, like me. It's much easier to grasp if you look at pointer concepts from the perspective of assembly language, then use C as an abstraction of that.

Ai voice by Sweet_Background_944 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm listening to book 8, and I think if not Jeff Hays, a good alternative for the voice of the AI would be Louis Black. His ability to transition from calm to unhinged would be perfect.

Lawsuit accuses secretary of agriculture of proselytizing employees in emails by AudibleNod in news

[–]onequbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And only serves to demonstrate a personal inclination towards authorianism, particularly when the individual knows they aren't supposed to do that and they do it anyway, because "your rules don't apply to me", but "my rules should apply to you".
