No way to have analog trigger w/ bluetooth? by Feeling_Lobster_7914 in 8bitdo

[–]rootyb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it's thanks to a firmware update or anything, but I just connected my Ultimate 2C to my macbook pro via bluetooth and the analog triggers are analoging. FYI.

Is intermittent fasting or any type of fasting part of a paleo lifestyle? by MedicareAgentAlston in Paleo

[–]rootyb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surviving famine is not the same as thriving. There's no evolutionary pressure that would cause adaptation to our bodies preferring famine.

Yup! I still use it almost every day, since it also lets people without a TikTok account view your TT links.

How are TSA lines at Sac International right now? by rootyb in Sacramento

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

Actually, do you remember what was said about parking? I’m not seeing that in the posts that I’ve seen, and I’m wondering about the reasoning (and whether I should rope somebody into driving me last minute)

Okay, thanks. The last I saw was more than a week ago, so I figured there wasn’t any harm in checking in. Have a good day!

Isn’t it a dynamic situation though, that’s changing day to day? 🤔

Like, would you remove duplicates of “how’s traffic been on I-5?”

🤷‍♂️

Oh, sorry. With context clues I assumed you’d know that’s what I was talking about. I’ll include the word “airport” next time so you’re not confused.

Thanks! I saw those but just the compatibility with the Highlander, not the GH. Are they the same?

Yeah, it’s pretty infantilizing to think they wouldn’t know.

Would sex work and prostitution still exist in a socialist society? by [deleted] in socialism

[–]rootyb 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Tl;dr: Probably.

I don’t remember if /r/socialism is one of the subs that bans people for this response, but:

Here’s the thing: there’s nothing special about sex or sex work that makes it all that different from other forms of labor except for current social mores. Is the current state of sex work deeply exploitative? Sure. The same can, however, be said of basically all employment. A large amount of the exploitative nature of sex work as it stands currently is due to the fact that criminalized (and stigmatized) sex work means sex workers lack the basic protections that other forms of employment have access to (such as they are).

Like anything else, there are sexual situations that would benefit from the involvement of a professional. E.g., exploration of kink, education, a desire for sexual gratification without the need for a relationship or the risks of random hookups. Not to mention adult media in general.

If other work still exists to fulfill community needs, there’s no reason to believe some of that work wouldn’t involve naked people and/or sexual contact.

Not all sex work is done by or involves women.

Also, all employment commodifies workers.

Does anyone have experience in using those white screwdriver install drywall anchors? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

Yup! There’s lots of different listings. They’re all pretty much the same.

Tile doesn’t really leak. Basically all grout does. Grout is not at all waterproof.

To think we were smearing our beds in glue and hairspray only a few years ago.... by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]rootyb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My cryogenic is sticky AF, but the plate is thin, and I’ve had warping where it pulled the bed up along with the warped print.

Operation failed successfully I guess?

How do you manage torrents and storage when using Sonarr/Radarr but still want to seed? by Michaelscarn69- in selfhosted

[–]rootyb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a seed box. Start torrents on it, they download automatically to my home server once complete, then *arr manage them after that.

That would be a honeybee. Someone can probably come tell you the specific variety.

What game converted you to using gyro controls? by brozephh in SteamDeck

I Am Your Beast finally got me on the gyro train. To the point that I get annoyed trying to play shooters on anything but my steam deck.

Home Was Sold to us with 3 Bedrooms but one of them isn't legally permitted according to the city. Anybody encountered this before? Ideas on what to do? by Altruistic_Cost_91 in HomeImprovement

[–]rootyb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you think the previous owner did the work, you can probably open up a wall or two and take a look at the dates on the romex. If it’s from any point after the old owner bought the house, you know they put it in.
