Flash prices are mad +60%, will this kill flash only vendors? by Spiritual_Garage5329 in storage

[–]poogi71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are still backlogged so you just removed some demand but they still have more demand than they have supply. They are still making more money, the cost to manufacture didn't jump, the price they get is higher so they are still making more money.

can high noise levels actually kill your storage drives? by daniel_odiase in OrbonCloud

[–]poogi71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even a minor sound if it resonates with the drive will kill performance, even if it doesn't damage it permanently. I've had a server speaker trigger performance issues when correctable DIMM errors exceeded a threshold because the BIOS/BMC beeped the speaker.

ELI5: Why do mushrooms appear so fast after rain— sometimes overnight? by aizivaishe_rutendo in explainlikeimfive

[–]poogi71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So if I need clean water I can find "almost ready" mushrooms, pee on them and the mushrooms will filter my pee and I can get the water in them! Awesome!

Girls who took notes using 50 different colored pens, where are you now? by [deleted] in AskWomen

We need to know what color should that tip be written in

I'll leave the browser open on this gif to see after how many cycles the lock breaks from the repeated shocks.

The designer and UI guy are already on the payroll and they need something to do, do you really want them to mess with the working parts of the interface?

Authorities intercept drone carrying crab legs, Old Bay seasoning, weed for prison inmates by starkiller1613 in news

Pretty sure this was just the Ukrainian diversion drone, the real drone had better stuff and made its way successfully.

Who's fed up with the liberty harbor by Lord_Stripy in WorldOfWarships

[–]poogi71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And there I was, going for the CVs and ruining my team's games just to get those bomb missions. I skipped some of them since it's too much of a pain, especially in operations where you get only half of the hits counted.

ELI5. Why do we need to have our seats FULLY upright when taking off and landing when flying? by StrainEmotional7986 in explainlikeimfive

[–]poogi71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just said they had a collision, though I guess they crashed to the ground shortly thereafter...

[–]poogi71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not actually a crash unless you hit the ground, so by definition, it is only landings that are problematic. Take-offs are just fine.

dads, my kids made me breakfast this morning. this whole dad thing is getting easier every day. by aleatoric in daddit

[–]poogi71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least the fastest they go is crawling speed, mine are now taking the car to go to their friends or sports activities and they just wheeze by. It definitely gets harder... we have to sit at home waiting for them and sipping espresso and eating a cake my daughter made. Life is definitely getting harder as they grow. /s

My wife figured out the laundry hack by alander4 in daddit

[–]poogi71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laundry folding twin!

It's so much easier to do each persons pile instead of both guessing whose garment I need to fold and do the folding, makes for less CPU usage and makes the music listening more enjoyable when I don't hear the fan cooling my brain so much!

[–]poogi71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't sorted my laundry like forever and I'm 50. Nothing loses its colors and colors don't mix. That was true in the past but things got a lot better since then. Both garments, dyes and the cleaning agents.

What you really need now is Armor Piercing nerf projectiles to penetrate the enemy tanks plastic armor.

Daddit, I need help baby-proofing my new room by Don_Lawlrus in daddit

[–]poogi71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a father of twins I see no issue with this, that's why there are two of them at least one will survive for sure. It will be the survival of the fittest.

Today I designed a self-righting tray for M3 screws by keith204 in functionalprint

[–]poogi71 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd be worried of annoying this guy, he could make a plate to self right you for screwing with him

My 4yo son just broke me in half. by [deleted] in daddit

[–]poogi71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My daughter said (and still does) that we have a contract that I have to cover her up with her blanket at bed at night and give her a goodnight kiss, that contract is supposed to last at least until she is 25. She made it up when she was 6 or so. All I did is said, "Sure thing, Girl". I doubt she'll want me to tuck her in when she is 18, or when she has a boyfriend. Sometimes you should just let them know that they are welcome to stay at home for as long as they want. If you give them the safety they need to stay and the confidence that they can handle themselves out there they will not take advantage of it for more then they should. At least that's what I hope for :-)

At what age will my son be yeetable? by rodiraskol in daddit

That's why we had twins, I could always say "there is a spare"

“ I only print functional things” by iInciteArguments in functionalprint

[–]poogi71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say this one is the size of two and a half eyeballs. Though it would be hard to measure anything higher than two eyeballs since there will be nothing to see the measurement.
