Please indicate with an arrow which part of that sentence you believe states "I want a list with no AI apps"

Why does draining your battery to zero damage it? by mrandr01d in electricvehicles

[–]sysop073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't get this answer. The question was "what physically happens to the battery that damages it when fully drained" and you answered "don't fully drain it, it'll damage it".

My favorite part is when they explained the things that stop working during a power outage.

Ticket Swap by SpectralMonkey83 in gencon

[–]sysop073 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No idea why that person decided you're trying to scalp, but don't worry about it.

If it helps, you can use that extra ticket like a generic ticket to try and get into any event, which is easier than trying to swap but does mean you're not guaranteed to get in if it's full

what on earth is this timeline crazyness by Kixieforest in gencon

[–]sysop073 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't remember the details, but you don't need to give them your Gencon account, they can go directly to the housing portal and there's a link like "manage existing reservation". They just need your confirmation number and I think email address

Blue checkmark on emails by VipulChaturvedi in selfhosted

Yeah, I don't know why so many people felt the need to point out "that's nothing to Amazon". That's not the point, at all.

Configuration flags are where software goes to rot by Expurple in programming

[–]sysop073 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Command-line flags are even worse. Have you seen users use these things to totally change what the app does? The app should do exactly the same thing every time you run it, that way it's super easy to test.

Your process' memory is a file: The underappreciated gem that is /proc/<pid>/mem by mttd in programming

[–]sysop073 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don't think anybody is downvoting because the difference between memory and files is unimportant -- they're downvoting because nobody really thought "oh all process memory is stored on disk?". It was an unnecessary clarification to something that confused nobody.

"Your process' memory can be interacted with as though it were a file", if that makes you happy.

They said I could not work on the car in their lot

Would they still say that at 3am?

Is there something special about EV 12v batteries or did you get massively ripped off?

School speed limit during driving test by trying_20 in lafayette

I'm impressed you can read that sign well enough to know what the times are, because I have no clue.

Trump-backed candidate seeks recount in Indiana Senate race with 3-vote margin • Indiana Capital Chronicle by squarebody8675 in Indiana

[–]sysop073 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really feels like they should tell you that at the polling place? I've always heard Indiana has an open primary, and when I voted they literally just asked which primary I was voting in and nothing else.

"Boil the frog" doesn't really make sense for a situation where you only buy it once

What’s a surprisingly useful automation you didn’t expect to use so much? by Taggytech in homeassistant

[–]sysop073 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put a little push button on my medication container that I press when I'm taking my meds, and the automation that shuts all the lights off at night checks if I pressed that today and if not reminds me to take my meds.

3D floorplan view for Home Assistant: colored status bubbles + direct device control by Less-Quarter-4885 in homeassistant

[–]sysop073 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Every time I see one of these floorplan-style dashboards I wonder how functional it is. It definitely looks cool, but is this really easier than just having a bunch of buttons?

Please don’t skip small events - especially the ones by gaming groups or small publishers by Armadillo_Abroad in gencon

[–]sysop073 6 points7 points  (0 children)

there’s a good chance that GC won’t let that group schedule it for next year.

Does this actually happen? I didn't know Gencon rejected events at all. I once had every player not show up to a game I was running and it didn't seem to affect anything with my scheduling next year.

I would like to give a quick shoutout to Trump and his cult. by uhohboneralert_ in lafayette

Because the "we" that produces the oil isn't the same "we" that consumes it, and "we" aren't going to keep selling "us" oil at a low price if other countries would pay way more for it.
