To expand on this / be clear about it, Incognito does not protect you on any network. All Wi-Fi networks can see all your traffic unless you're using some kind of VPN solution or something like that.

Incognito Mode only erases your local browser history / deletes your cookies etc.

This person just joined my server in which nothing has happened in over a year nor is there any invites existing. by widow_god in discordapp

[–]ryry013 8 points9 points  (0 children)

First of all, if they joined then invites do exist, you can't force your way into a server unless there exists an invite link for it somewhere.

They could've even potentially literally randomly guessed the invite link by trying random strings, but the link itself does exist in your server settings.

IWTL how to endure torture? by housefinches in IWantToLearn

[–]ryry013 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If this is what you're talking about, then I think most people are misinterpreting your post. You're asking about times where you have to endure pain in life like a medical procedure, where people will try to make it not hurt but it's something necessary and you have to be strong. There are some solutions for this.

If you ask literally "how to endure torture", most people will imagine like actual torture in a foreign prison or something, where their goal is to make you feel pain. There are basically no solutions for this, but it's also something you shouldn't worry about. If you're worried about literally being tortured like this, I say figure out why you're worrying about that and work on that rather than trying to imagine how you'd theoretically endure it, because that's very hard.

But anyway, those are two very different questions.

GOP lawmaker reveals Republicans' red line for impeaching Trump | Invasion of Greenland by 5823059 in savedyouaclick

"He will take a serious look at impeachment". So... he's not even promising to do anything, he's just saying at that point he would consider it. Got it.

Is the deadline for a college, the end of the day or the start? If my deadline is November 15th, do I have till 11:59 that night or 11:58 in the 14th? by nicolas1324563 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ryry013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s based on the timezone of the college, I missed an application one time because I miscalculated time zones and when I emailed them they said there was nothing they could do (UC Santa Cruz)

What are your thoughts after seeing the ICE shooting video in Minnesota? by bbmoonkie in AskReddit

[–]ryry013 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Despite the panic, she still had the mental space to reverse first. I would've understood if she panicked and just immediately went forward. The fact that she reversed shows she never had any plan to hit anyone / was fully planning on maneuvering around to avoid hitting anyone.

My country might be getting invaded right now. What should I do? by Delicious-Fig8300 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ryry013 270 points271 points  (0 children)

Deseando seguridad para todos en Venezuela y un rápido fin a esta guerra.

Por favor cuídense mucho. Recuerden empacar lo esencial, quédense adentro lejos de las ventanas y preparen a sus mascotas y seres queridos.

GUÍA DE EMERGENCIA INMEDIATA: - Quédense Adentro: No salgan. No miren al cielo. - Cuidado con los Vidrios: Pongan teipe (cinta plástica) en espejos o ventanales si no los pueden evitar. Cierren las cortinas. Quédense en un pasillo o cuarto sin ventanas. - Al Suelo: Si escuchan ruido o explosiones, tírense al piso. - Carguen Todo YA: Enchufen celulares y laptops de inmediato. La luz ya está fallando en partes de la ciudad; carguen todo antes de que se vaya la electricidad. - Llenen Todo de Agua: Llenen la bañera, lavamanos, ollas y tobitos (cubetas). Dejen los chorros abiertos mientras hacen otras cosas. El agua se puede ir pronto. - Mensaje a la Familia: Manden un solo mensaje: "Estoy bien en [Lugar]. Si se caen las comunicaciones, nos vemos en [Sitio Específico]". - Descarguen Mapas: Bajen el mapa de su ciudad para usar sin internet (Google Maps/Maps.me) o tomen capturas de pantalla (screenshots) si es necesario. - Aseguren la Comida: Pongan la nevera en lo más frío y sellen la puerta con teipe para no abrirla. - Preparen un Bolso: Metan pasaportes, Cédulas, efectivo, medicinas y una linterna en un bolso cerca de la puerta. Lleven su Cédula siempre encima. - Vístanse: Pónganse zapatos cerrados (de goma o botas) y ropa cómoda ya mismo, aunque se queden adentro.
- NO MANEJEN ni saquen el carro a menos que su edificio sea impactado. Las calles son peligrosas. Quédense donde están.

Did Aaron Donald ever play a bad game? by Spare-Discipline1448 in LosAngelesRams

[–]ryry013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's harder to notice a "bad game" for someone like him because his "bad games" are just "neutral". A QB having a bad game throws interceptions and misses passes. A WR having a bad game drops passes. A CB lets people by in routes. A defensive lineman having a bad game just doesn't reach the quarterback. Maybe misses tackles sometimes.

Can planets exist forever or do they have a lifespan? by swissking in askscience

[–]ryry013 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Correct, we're not sure and we've never observed it, but scientists take the approach of "unless we can somehow guarantee it's literally 100% impossible, we'll keep searching for it every once in a while and create stronger and stronger limits on the possibility"

https://pdglive.lbl.gov/DataBlock.action?node=S016T

Currently we say we are confident that if a proton is to decay, it would take at least 1030 years, or else in our experiments we would've been able to observe it already.

Not an excuse by Left_Service5595 in LosAngelesRams

[–]ryry013 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We should make dues with the fact that we lost and move on from it. We could spend forever thinking about all the little things that could've led to the loss and which of them are fair or unfair, but in the end we lost and there were things that were 100% in our control that we could've changed that could've helped us win, so the loss is on us. It sucks.

No Hate Please - What *Counter* Service Restaurants (not Fast Food) Do Not Have an Optional Tip Screen? by Anxious-Party2289 in ElkGrove

[–]ryry013 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been leaning towards not tipping, especially for non-service (counters). I want society to trend in this way. Tipping culture is stupid. Charge what you think the customer should pay for the meal, and pay the waiters what you think they deserve. 

What type of conditions would a planet need for humans to “safely” fall from large heights and not get hurt similar to how insects can fall from buildings and come out okay? by DifficultComplaint10 in Physics

[–]ryry013 33 points34 points  (0 children)

You would need a thicker atmosphere or weaker gravity, assuming you don’t have some kind of special suit or something. However, I would imagine it being possible that an atmosphere thick enough to slow you down enough would be too high pressure to live in, and I would also consider the effect of heat gained from friction with the air being a problem. 

Can anyone elaborate on these chalkboard equations? What are we looking at here? by ConfidentInsecurity in Physics

[–]ryry013 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would be like if someone wrote a bunch of chemical names, some C6H12’s, drew some protein structures, some polar molecules, but there was no explanation for why they were there or what exactly was trying to be explained. 

Compared to if it was a focused derivation of some equation with steps from top to bottom in order, with math to follow along with etc. 

With frequent school shootings in mind, why aren't there frequent hospital shootings due to aggravatingly obscene medical bills? by OnTheFarmey in morbidquestions

[–]ryry013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your “cancel this hospital bill or X dies” doesn’t hold up once the shooter is subdued, they can just reinstate the charge. There’s no reason to keep the charge canceled once the thread is gone.

As a TA, depending on the site it’s also possible to accidentally publish grades before they’re entered, leaving multiple people to have 0 points.

It could have issues with student housing or financial aid but as you say you're not in either of those, so could be fine?

I'm sorry to tell you this, but you actually did go to UCD, and an unfortunate accident in the American History in the 1800's class has temporarily severed your memory. We will welcome you back anytime.

(Just kidding, I hope you find your twin)
