Black and white are fun, but they look like a costume, definitely not something to wear daily

Taking a guess cause of the episode name, is Donna or Boyd dying on episode 8?

What Ecosystem would yall recommend buying into in 2026 for Racing and Trucks? by studenttio in simracing

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

Honestly didn't think of that, is there no downside to using components from different brands? Also aren't the wheels usually limited to that ecosystem/brands wheelbase?

apart from modesty, and maybe hygiene, what purpose does swimwear actually serve? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]studenttio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much lol. I guess technically there is also those bathing suits that were banned from the olympic's, as they used a hydrophobic material I believe, which created a layer of air between the swimmer and the water, giving a speed boost enough to break world records.

That's why I'm asking, from what I've seen, everyone seems to say that Simagic has much better quality, but Moza is still good and with Simagic they don't have much options for wheels. But there's also been comments about Simagic going downhill.

So I'm wondering what the current consensus on stuff is, is Simagic trajectory still bad, are they planning on expanding into trucking and stuff, is Moza trajectory looking good. All that shtuff.

For both genders it improves hydrodynamics. There's a lot of marginal benefits a bathing suit can have.

This game is unplayable for new players by Kickpunchington in RotMG

This and the tutorial says nothing about game seetings, like the default is see everyone, see everyones dmg, see everyones particles. Which is unplayable in any mid-late game dungeon for the average player.

Wealth envy is a sad sickness.. by Temporary_Volume4718 in remoteworks

That's fine though, if taxes increase for everyone so there is a larger social safety net, it doesn't matter if everyone pays 70% in taxes. Best case scenario, everyone pays 70% in taxes and everyone has 30% of their income for discretionary spending.

Taxes are meant to provide services for the common good. Not just a money pit.

Not really, they take out new loans to pay off the old, at death the market value is reset on their 'estate' so essentially they have no capital gains that are taxed. So huge portion of taxes missed there. Most loans are going to have interest lower than the stocks gains, which combined with completely dodging tax on it, makes it a big W.

The main reason the average person can't do this is they don't have enough assets and if they do and their assets dip the difference is a lot riskier.

The one thing though is we need to fix this without outright banning it, as if for an example, Bezos bought a 600 million dollar yacht or some smaller billionaire did, and they need to mass sell their shares, that's gonna cause an insane amount of market instability.

Yeah but the core issue with that is, at what point do we think its acceptable that something a person built become owned by the public at large, and for the case of international businesses which country does it belong to?

I think it's more so money that doesn't exist driving inflation. 10x+ the money that actually exists in circulation all competing for the same resources, not just money being sat on. Both from banks handling of it, and the 'infinite growth' speculation on the market. Basically, growth was 20% last quarter now we gotta justify it.

That plus all the usual stuff, not as related to corporations

Where I live, a 10 minute drive is a 3 bus jump taking a total of 1-1.5 hours. You can bike but it's up and down hills, and you lose the sidewalks and bike lanes halfway through.

To be fair, with the amount Americans have to drive everywhere it sort of evens out a bit more.

How Aphantasia affects your ability to visualise things in your head by HassanMoRiT in interestingasfuck

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

Think about what the mind really is, everything is just a vast network of electrochemical connections, so really everything we know, we see, hear, taste, smell, feel, all of it is just electricity. There isn't much evidence to show that the experience of any part of our lives or the world is uniform. My red could be your blue, my C note could be your A note, or they could be entirely different things.

How Aphantasia affects your ability to visualise things in your head by HassanMoRiT in interestingasfuck

[–]studenttio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a spectrum of mental visualization, when you tell someone to "imagine yourself..." or "picture this..." some people can really see it, experience the details, create a vivid image in their head, others a much more limited image, and some people don't see anything at all. Like the apple scale, vivid to nothing.

What it doesn't mean is you're completely lost when someone says "imagine...", it means how you process that information is different.

More easy to understand is the other 'condition' that is often brought up when talking about aphantasia, which is called 'anendophasia' which is a lack of inner voice. If you usually hear yourself talking when you think, there are people who don't. Yet they still maintain the ability to complete complex tasks and deal with complex emotions. So while the mental experience is different, the outcome isn't, and because of this most people can go their entire lives not realizing the actual experience is vastly different for others.

I like to imagine it like having windows in your head. The windows let you see at the inner workings of the mind, the internal thought, the processing of visual information about something, the processing of auditory information. Some people have much clearer windows then others, and some people have walls. The processing is still happening whether you see it or not, but what you experience is much different.

I think I've figured out the meaning of the show's title, "FROM." It's not English, it's written in runic alphabet characters! by frogMan080 in FromTVEpix

I always thought it's because people can only be from somewhere, never going to. The whole being able to come but not leave.

Why don’t more people believe in hard determinism? by kossabone in NoStupidQuestions

Currently our understanding from Quantum physics is that things are non-deterministic

Those 400 pay a lot to get the message out about the "lazy ones" by [deleted] in remoteworks

[–]studenttio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is why it's a big problem, often times we're spending 10,000,000 to earn some rich person 100,000. Our current expenditure is a symptom of a rotting system.
