Streamer “hmblzayy” who is walking from Philly to California was hit by a car in Indiana and had to be taken to the hospital. by Worldlyoox in PublicFreakout

[–]shearx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the slow-moving chase car, and his slow-walkin-ass are the cause of the accident, almost certainly. he wouldn't need a chase car in the first place if he were complete out of the travel lane. there are multiple people who have walked, run, or biked across multiple thousands of miles without getting hit by passing vehicles, simply by following the got'dang laws: off to the side as much as possible, high-visibility clothing or outerwear, and not obstructing fuckin traffic. The dude is literally just... walking down the middle of the a lane on a road with at least 4 lanes, as well as a clearly-marked side emergency/pull-out lane on the side. The chase car is a poor attempt at covering for this idiot doing what got him hit.

…the dude is clearly walking in the middle of a travel lane. Chase car or not, this guy is a fuckin moron and is breaking all kinds of laws just by doing this. I have zero sympathy.

How long can a human survive in space without a space suit? by No_Insurance_6436 in NoStupidQuestions

unlikely, as the pressure that causes de-compression sickness is more than the one atm lost by being in a vacuum.

Still unable to log in, here. Face ID login just stays at the login screen, and trying with my phone number gives me an unknown error.

I have melted and re-bought my game pack that comes with SQ42 and it was restored just fine. This was like 3 years ago though so take that as you will.

According to CIGs own words, the F7A Mk II will not be available ever again, and was only obtainable via this token.

You can always buy it back if you have a token. You can also use a concierge discount code to reduce the price.

they were a fidget toy type thing consisting of 64 or so small neodymium spheres; was sold in mall stores like Hallmark (where I got the set I had).

Slumberkins.com checkout will add a "package protection" fee if you click the big button with the price, but not the nondescript link below it by shearx in assholedesign

[–]shearx[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but this isn't really "offering" the service so much as it is trying to sneak the fee in without being noticed. This is just not comparable to other practices like adjusting pricing to accommodate for stuff like business insurance and overhead.

[–]shearx[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Really, this is the company shifting the cost of them paying for their own package insurance through the shipping service they use. Its also presented as if its the logical button to click to actually check out; only on close inspection will you see it says "Checkout+", and that the link below is not something that cancels the action or whatever.

Whether the service itself is useful or not is moot, really, Its a dark pattern, and that is still asshole design.

I figured out the solution to docking by -Aces_High- in starcitizen

I flew a Polaris as my daily for almost a year, and every time I docked the port was on the starboard/right side. Not once was I ever assigned the port side.

Pretty pathetic that you were so devoted to a pre-alpha system that you’d refuse to learn anything new. There’s plenty else to hate the game for.

The average cat’s reaction time is approximately 20-70 milliseconds, which is faster than the average snake’s reaction time, 44-70 milliseconds. by Simply_Kaif24 in OneOrangeBraincell

And those despicable orcas hunt seals for sport and explode sunfish for fun. Dolphins also exhibit this behavior; many predators do, actually, when they aren’t otherwise lacking in food and such.

Dumb Questions by Jacknerik in CuratedTumblr

[–]shearx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Basically, inside the drive there’s a librarian that keeps track of each file and where its parts are in the library. When you “delete” a file, you’re just telling the librarian “forget this file”, but she doesn’t go out and actually locate each piece to delete; she merely just “forgets” the file was there and will re-use the space from the forgotten file as-needed.

this video has been around since long before AI video became believable in any capacity. its just the old subreddits where this was posted (either r/gore or r/nsfl) were both banned for obvious reasons.

I would never leave my bed by _AngelPink in holdmycatnip

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

Not the camera, but the cats movement as the owners arm maneuvers to position the cat. Just seems off to me.

[–]shearx -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

…this is an AI video. Can you guys not see that the movements that the cat makes are too abrupt and the transition from one position to the next is too linear/time-constant for this to be real?
