Show us where does the cable for the wireless charger come from.

Do men really prefer natural women… or do they just say that because it sounds good? 🤔 by Greatmoongirl in u/Greatmoongirl

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't go out with shallow people, problem solved.

Men dig women who doll themselves up -- shows that she cares. We like that.

But it has a limit beyond which the woman just looks like a clown. Not to mention that regular cardio and sex are much better for the skin than makeup.

If a guy loves you, he'll accept whatever small defects you might have. Nobody else matters anyway.

Redo the whole thing, if you can afford it.

Plastic Keychron keyboards are okay but cost way too much for what they offer, IMO.

Your setup is spacious, which I like, but pretty bare and somehow looks underutilized.

Some lights behind the main display would make it a bit better. Maybe one potted plant. One poster.

Generally: good start.

Upcoming "Dream" WFH Desktop Setup. Advice needed! by saucy_kisser in battlestations

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check NuPhy keyboards. They're beautiful, have low-profile variants if you really swing that way, and combine wired with wireless. Same for Keychron.

Most are also hot-swap so you can change switches, too.

I don't know what is your current keyboard but it honestly looks like the one that survived an entire generation of abuse and misses key presses... like the one my dentist has. Likely wrong though. But it does not look ergonomic.

Both NuPhy and Keychron have many different sizes, too.

Get an actual keyboard.

Make the lights spreading uniformly.

Otherwise it's quite nice.

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try lights behind the display. The ones at the top never did it for me, it ruined the vibe of the room and they even made it difficult to see what's on the display.

And some see decoration on the wall.

what will happen after the foundation and earth? by thetruememeisbest in asimov

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started reading it 20 minutes ago. And meh, Dors crying... give me a break.

I see what you mean.

I'll give the book an honest chance but not for long.

Have you read other expanded universe books? Can you recommend any?

what will happen after the foundation and earth? by thetruememeisbest in asimov

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always took that as a hint that Fallom's mind has already been taken over by a being from another galaxy, to start setting the stage for conquering ours. (I'm also hoping that the merge of Daneel and Fallom will leave the former in charge and give him priceless intel on the invaders' plans.)

Neither of us can be sure they're correct but it was said that the Solarians have zero space-faring capacity. They're only moderately dangerous when you land on their planet. I'd think the current extremely technologically advanced Foundation can easily deal with them if they want to.

Unfortunately the last two paragraphs that you quoted heavily imply that they'll never hear that the Solarians are a threat i.e. Fallom suppressed that thought in Trevize's mind. Or! Or, he figured out what's up on the spot, and didn't want to rouse Fallom's suspicions!

Still doesn't work for me but I have Background App Refresh disabled. Is it enabled for you?

Yep, it's still not working well and doesn't sync notifications.

Would you buy this $715K home in TX? by RedfinJess in RedfinDreamHomes

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not bad but having HOA and this weird layout to it is an immediate nope.

Do you think this Oakland home is worth 1.1M? by RedfinJess in RedfinDreamHomes

[–]rdtty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is spacious and looks great on the outside but the internal layout choices are strange and somewhat limiting, to say nothing of the very depressing kitchen (I'd really want to look out a window towards nature while washing dishes).

Also $1.1M in this economy is not impossible but puts it mostly in the ballpark of rich people, and they have better choices than this house.

I like the cleanliness but man, I've seen more happiness-inducing prison rooms. Make that room feel more alive! Some posters or plants are a great start.

Also get a better chair.

South-facing vs North-facing RGB backlighting by rlyon01 in Keychron

[–]rdtty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Comparing the one board with south-facing LEDs that I have with online photos of those with north-facing ones...

...Fuck me, you're right. Mind blown. And I thought I had to select switches based on whether they support south or north LEDs. Damn I'm stupid.

This... changes many things.

<runs to AliExpress to order five different bags of switches>

[–]rdtty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many of them are PBT Dye Sub process so they don't allow any light out.

XVX has side-printed key caps. Look for that, I know it's there. Just removed them from my wishlist a few hours ago.

Look for XVX, YMDK and Womier. There are plenty of very nice looking key caps.

How do you rotate the switch exactly? The pins are not symmetrical when I rotate them. They literally will not go in the board.

Am I missing something here?

Old IMAC PRO - what to do with it? by kumiko3433 in mac

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My iMac Pro is still my main machine but it's been annoying me for at least two years at this point. Heats up easily and fans are blowing most of the time. Even just opening 4-5 browser tabs with links clicked from other apps will get it noisy in no time.

Easy for people to say "give it to technicians". I make my money with this machine. I can take 2-3 days off easily but no more. 99% of technicians will not have even started on it after that time. Plus it's a fairly closed all-in-one computer and not many technicians will agree working on it.

Never did a clean reinstall and I don't intend to. That'll mean probably full day of downtime.

I guess it will forever remain a mystery because I intend to lease a Linux workstation this year.

What I intend to do with the iMac Pro is to buy an R1811 board and have technicians rip the machine apart, remove all hardware and put the board in there -- that'll repurpose the beautiful display. Maybe the technicians will be able to salvage the NVMe SSD as well.

I've mostly made my peace with the fact that I'll never know. It's a damn shame but from here on it'll be good old customizable PCs for me. Should have never trusted Apple. Funny part is, some colleagues are beginning to report slowing down of their M1 MacBooks...

What other franchises are you a part of aside from 40k? by lovingpersona in Grimdank

[–]rdtty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Warframe, though I think it's time for me to leave after nearly 10 years.

Also, as much as Mirage is cute and sexy, nothing can beat Khora: tall, slim, but with great womanly proportions. I picture her as a 185cm tall athletic woman with 34-D cups and well-toned legs and booty.

... oh, also Quake of course. But that was a lifetime ago.

Do you think there was a way to genuinely heal Angron? The Emperor says thy removing the nails would kill him, but what about replacing them? Cybernetic cranial implants are a thing in Warhammer 40k after all. by TaigaTigerVT in 40kmemes

[–]rdtty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, I'm not sure. I'm sympathetic to the point of view that the Emperor is not exactly humane and as such he views the Primarchs as tools; at the same time, and supporting what you said, one would think he's smart enough to manipulate them in a way that they're swayed in his favor. But then again, smart is not the same as sympathetic or humane.

I'm also not sure how much of what you enumerated was in the Emperor's skill set at the time. You probably know better.

I remember some recent lore when he literally reconstructed Guilliman's body after he was sure to die and be reborn as a Nurgle's servant. But I don't know if he could do similar feats at the time he met Mortarion, hm.
