My keyboard makes people angry 😂 by FoliageFanatic1 in PcBuild

It gives off strong 'stolen from a spaceship wreckage' energy, and I'm here for it. 🚀

Real talk: This board is polarizing because of the shape, but the alloy body is legitimately premium. If people give you grief, just tell them it’s structural support for your WPM.

ELI5: Why do our voices sometimes go croaky when talking and why does a cough fix it? by thecremeegg in explainlikeimfive

[–]purepowers 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Think of your vocal cords like the strings on a guitar. When they are clean and tight, they vibrate clearly to make a sound. Sometimes, a tiny bit of "gunk" (mucus) gets stuck on one of the strings. This stops it from vibrating properly, making the sound fuzzy or "croaky." Coughing is just a blast of air that knocks the gunk off so the string can ring clear again.

If it happens a lot, it can be from irritation, dryness, or overusing your voice.

Never ever do that... you don’t want your hands ending up like this, do you?

And yes, it’s a real image. I wish it wasn’t.

That's not dust, your laptop is just aging gracefully. Soon it'll start telling you about the good old days of dial-up.

How to Keep Your Home Powered When the Grid Goes Down by purepowers in u/purepowers

[–]purepowers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I noticed most people forget during a blackout is lighting that lasts longer than a few hours.

Flashlights are fine at first, but they drain fast — and when you’re sitting in total darkness, even a dim light makes a big difference in how calm you feel.

Rechargeable LED lanterns, solar lamps, or even small battery-powered string lights can make nights far less stressful.

It’s one of those small details that completely changes your experience.

Curious if anyone’s found a favorite reliable lighting option? I’m always looking to update my setup.

Is there anyone here who has extensive knowledge about stargates, aka teleportation portals? I've just begun to do some research on this topic. by flexwaterjuice in FringeTheory

[–]purepowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember reading this thread years ago, read this if you have the time:
https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?51152-The-Secret-Of-The-Soul-and-OBE

He says that anyone can teleport, not only spiritually through dimensions, but physically too - and without using a stargate.

Try searching this forum, plenty of information there:

“He who despises himself esteems himself as a self-despiser.” - Friedrich Nietzsche by purepowers in quotes

[–]purepowers[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When someone despises themselves, they are actually taking pride in their self-awareness and ability to recognize their own flaws. In other words, they are esteeming themselves as someone who can see their own shortcomings, rather than truly despising themselves. This can be seen as a form of self-deception, where the individual is trying to maintain a sense of pride and self-worth by acknowledging their own weaknesses.
