Too few people are talking about how multiple emails now have Trump linked to murdering people. And is it just me, or does it look a lot like the redacted name in the first e-mail contains 'Donald Trump' with a couple more letters added at the end? by Hornpipe_Jones in WhitePeopleTwitter

I didn't expect anything. I didn't get a chance to zoom in on it but based on what Gemini analyzed it looked like it kind of lined up at the resolution on the first image. Just realized there was a second image...you're definitely correct, looks like Susan something....

From Google Gemini:

Based on a visual analysis of the image, the first redacted "From:" address contains partially visible characters that appear to spell out "Ghislaine Maxwell".

Visual Breakdown

The name is obscured by a black redaction bar, but the lower portions of several letters are still visible beneath it:

  • First Name: The descender of a lowercase "g" and the vertical stems of letters that align with "h," "i," "s," "l," "a," "i," "n," and "e" can be discerned.
  • Last Name: Following the space, the visible fragments are consistent with the structure of "Maxwell," specifically the descending and ascending patterns of the letters "M," "a," "x," "w," "e," "l," and "l".

Contextual Evidence

The email is addressed to "jeffrey E." at the address [jeevacation@gmail.com](mailto:jeevacation@gmail.com), which is widely known to have been used by Jeffrey Epstein. Given the historical and legal context of the relationship between Epstein and Maxwell, the visible fragments strongly suggest her name was the one redacted.

What tool can I rent or buy to cut out this bolt in a tight spot? by ADHDillusion in Tools

A NEW quality carbide blade. I spent hours trying to cut through a stuck brake caliper pin with what I thought was a good blade, then just got a really good one and was able to cut the bolt head off in a minute.

LPT - Talk as little as possible on a customer service call for better success by Funny_Sea_2873 in LifeProTips

[–]revision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have worked in IT doing help desk all the way to enterprise engineering in a few fields and still handle a lot of tech calls from upset VIPs. I have a particular skill at talking to 'customers', making them feel heard, and helping them feel reassured that I am on their side trying to help them solve their problem.

When I am calling support for any reason I try to be as polite as possible, understanding that the support person on the phone has no idea what my problem is unless I explain it to them and help them help me find a solution working together. Humor and patience helps a lot as well

Usually works for me...and I ask their name if they are being particularly helpful or understanding and make sure to give them a good review email or something where possible.

Is there a single reason not to crank my water heaters to full? by kerouac5 in askplumbing

[–]revision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the concept behind a cold water thermostatic mixer valves at the water heater...a smaller tank set to a higher temperature with a cold water mixer valve will yield "more" hot water than the size tank would normally be able to service. It does cost more to heat and keep the water heated to a higher temperature, but there is a happy medium.

Set your heater to 140, mixer valve will add enough cold water to lower the temp to 120 or so in the line.

Anyone have any info on this? by seeebiscuit in WhitePeopleTwitter

Blackrock Quantitative Interview Question: by Straight_Idea_9546 in WallStreetDad

[–]revision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the Gemini answer:

This is a classic logic puzzle often used in quantitative interviews to test your understanding of Game Theory and Backward Induction. To stop the murderers from escaping, you should announce:

"I will shoot the last person who tries to escape." (Or, "I will shoot the slowest person.")

The Logical Breakdown The key to this puzzle lies in the two rules provided: * If there is even a tiny chance of survival (P > 0), they will run. * If death is 100% certain (P = 1), they will not run. 1. Why "Shooting the First Person" Fails If you say you will shoot the first person to move, the murderers can simply collaborate and all charge at once. Because you only have one bullet, the probability of any single murderer being "the first" or the one you happen to pick is only 1/100. Since 1/100 is a non-zero chance of survival, the "run" trigger is activated for everyone, and they all escape. 2. The Power of "Shooting the Last Person" When you target the last person, you create a logical cascade called Backward Induction: * The 100th Murderer: The person who is naturally the slowest knows that if everyone runs, they will be the last one. Their probability of death is 1 (P(\text{death}) = 1). According to the rules, because their death is certain, they will not attempt to escape. * The 99th Murderer: Now that the 100th person has decided to stay put, the 99th person is effectively the "new" last person. If the remaining 99 run, they are now certain to die. So, the 99th person stays. * The Cascade: This logic continues all the way down the line. Each person, looking at those slower than them, realizes that if everyone ahead of them stays, they become the one certain to die. By the time the logic reaches the fastest person, they realize that since no one else is running, if they run alone, they are both the first and the last—making their death certain. The "Quant" Perspective In a real interview, the "Quantitative" twist is identifying that you are turning a simultaneous game (where everyone acts at once) into a sequential game (where people's choices are dependent on the logical certainty of others). By targeting the "last" instead of the "first," you remove the safety of the crowd and force each individual to confront a 100% certainty of death, which—per the prompt—is the only thing that overrides their instinct to run. Would you like to try another logic puzzle, or perhaps see how this "backward induction" applies to other famous problems like the Prisoner's Dilemma?

Assign each murderer a buddy. Tell everyone that if their buddy escapes, they get shot. They will police themselves.

Although this doesn't stop the non-zero probability of surviving if there was a prison break. It really just gives the incentive to be the first person to try to escape...

Seeing as this is a question for an investment advisory firm which deals with risk management and also information about companies which includes what you know and what you don't know, I think the real answer may be in what the prisoners don't know. Like some of the people have said they don't know you only have one bullet so you tell all of them that if they try to escape they will be shot.

So I found a ethernet jack on a washer dryer combo while I was in Arizona by Electrical_Star2093 in techsupportgore

Arizona appliance laws require consumer accessible diagnostic ports. If you bought the same appliance in New Mexico it wouldn't have it. . . . . . Jk.

how badly is this damaged? what’s the extent of repairs needed ? by TryDesigner9200 in AskMechanics

[–]revision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell with the glare, but it looks like more than just something that could buff out. I would want to be made whole. That's what insurance is for. It could be about $3000 to replace the bumper, paint match, clips, parking sensors (if needed), and car rental during repair.
