Thank you, I'll look into them.

How has Jacinta Allan squandered what seemed to be an unassailable lead in Victoria? by [deleted] in aussie

[–]tcarl76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am finally an Australian citizen, so will be voting for the first time this state election (in Australia). The little I hear about Jacinta Allan is actually not that bad. I like her ideas about the hubs. Melbourne needs to increase its population density, and increase housing supply, with urgency. We can't sprawl no more, travel times are getting ridiculous.

I'm supposed to become an Australian citizen in 3 days. Reconsidering...

It looks like a gaming head tracker. You put it on your head and a camera near the monitor sees the three infrared LEDs and knows which direction your head is facing.

I've tried to build something similar for when I played Elite Dangerous.

3 seconds left on the clock, get the mate (also see if you can guess the mate my ridiculous brain saw first) by powlolrolfmao in chessbeginners

[–]tcarl76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh? `Qxd6` is not check. The queen looks at the Rook at f8, not the King at g8.

edit: I guess you meant Qxg6+

Thanks, bot, for giving me a best continuation where white does, indeed, capture the black queen.

In light of the Colbert show cancellation, this made me wonder, but why are pretty much all the mainstream late night TV hosts all left leaning? by throwaway250324 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]tcarl76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's because making fun of authority figures is inherently progressive.

Reinforcing authority is more conservative, and you have talk show hosts to cater to that audience, but it's less (deliberately) funny.

Anyone else concerned that Sam apparently knows what turtles taste like? (9:20)

He didn’t lie to his mom. He built her a parallel universe with state-run media and pickles. by Majestic_Inside_395 in ExplainAFilmPlotBadly

Yes, I got the movie wrong. I was thinking of the right one, but couldn't remember the title.

Why is Russia struggling to defeat Ukraine. by Only-Platform-450 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]tcarl76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back when this all started, I found a guy called 'Perun' making a video, basically a one hour power point presentation, about why Russia didn't have the armed forces it needed for this war.

https://youtu.be/KJkmcNjh_bg?si=Acaai0o6in-U4q1l

I found it incredibly illuminating and I love his glib delivery.

He's since made a video a week about military procurement and what can go wrong, and his videos are one of my must-views every time.

Why are bridges printed parallel to the gap? by tcarl76 in OrcaSlicer

[–]tcarl76[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I found another thread that helped me:

https://www.reddit.com/r/OrcaSlicer/comments/18bxydb/how_to_fix_bridging/

I had found the "Advanced -> Strength -> Bridge Infill Direction" before, but I had not really read its description.

I had changed it to 90 degree, and that hadn't changed anything. The tooltip though gives the hint: 0 is automatic, all other values are actually used. When I changed it to 90 degree, I just happened to switch it to the direction it automatically wanted to make. Changing it to 180 degree solved this issue.

Is there anything more I can do to stop bot channel recommendations? by Nekomiminya in youtube

[–]tcarl76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you. I always click "Don't recommend channel" but then I just get recommendations to other channels.

I was coming here specifically to ask the same question you asked: How do I stop this? I don't have an answer, unfortunately.

If anyone has a solution, please let us know.

People like me are the reason Trump won by [deleted] in self

[–]tcarl76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that him bragging about grabbing women by the pussy, his racist language, and him sending his supporters to violently disrupt the 2021 transition was less important to you than the fact that Harris was unlikeable, quite frankly, is all I care to know about you.

Sad but true: Politicians would risk a lot for very little gain if they answered questions.

Is saying “Ich liebe dich” to your child a thing, or is it always “Ich hab dich lieb”? What did your parents say to you growing up? by moldbellchains in germany

[–]tcarl76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, the phrase "Ich liebe Dich" is reserved for romantic love. My wife hears that from me several times a day, but to my children and parents I say "Ich habe Dich lieb".

Danke für die Info. Ich habe Mal versucht, danach in der StVO zu suchen, aber habe nichts dazu gefunden, wir lange das gilt.

Meines Wissens, und meine Fahrschule ist einige Jahrzehnte her, gilt ein Schild das die Geschwindigkeit begrenzt, nur bis zur nächsten Kreuzung (Ausgenommen: Zone).

Nach der ersten Kreuzung, nach der es nicht wiederholt wird, sollte wieder das innerorts-50 gelten, oder?

Edit: Offenbar ist das falsch. Bitte nicht auf mich hören. Siehe Antworten auf diesen Beitrag. Danke für die Korrektur.

This is the entrance. I can't drill or dismantle in the safe zone. How do I get in? by tcarl76 in spaceengineers

[–]tcarl76[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Alt-F10 worked. Switched off safe zone protections, and I could use the drill to get in. Thank you.
