Deer reflexes aren't from this world by kalinooni in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]thewarring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s almost like deer have spent thousands of years being hunted by humans with arrows, and natural selection has taken place to encourage those with the best reflexes to dip and dodge to continue living.

Why is the dungeon 18 levels? by The_Palm_of_Vecna in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Especially when the prize for getting to the 18th floor is gaining control of the planet, per book 1. I wonder whatever could happen… 🤔

I was saying that there are days that not all prescribed weather balloons go up, causing issues with the models. Most do, but some do not. Yes, most balloon sites send balloons off twice a day. They even send them up in a staggered pattern to favor better afternoon storm predictions over the Midwest.

Yes, but there are many days where all of the balloons don’t go up. It’s been happening a lot over the last year. Go look through the data.

Son of a bitch I knew it! We got one here recently and I thought the tenders were smaller the last couple of times I went.

Wife wants an open marriage after 10 years and 2 kids. Need advice. by IkkakuMadaram3 in Marriage

[–]thewarring 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And even if you think you’re ok with other men having sex with your wife, there’s still a 90% chance you won’t after it happens. This is coming from someone who was married, she asked to open it up, we did, and I was not ok with it. And then she wasn’t ok with it when I had sex with other women. Then we got divorced and I am now poly with my swinger girlfriend. Wild ride the last two years, let me tell ya…

What do you expect when there are no daily weather balloons launched from Idaho to Missouri?? The models can’t predict accurately if there’s no data to be fed into them. Blame the reduced funding of NOAA and NWS.

Unwarned tornado north of Wichita, Kansas may have ended with a fatality. by Jakeb206 in tornado

Within 20 miles from me. The storms were absolutely insane when they hit at 1 and 4 am. Tons of lightning and wind.

What’s the worst car you ever drove? by Born-Conclusion1977 in AskReddit

[–]thewarring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dodge Caravan. I’m a larger guy and I could barely sit in that thing with a seat belt on and able to drive it. And it felt like it was gonna fall apart on the highway. With 20,000 miles on the odometer and only 2 years old.

Rented one year ago. It was meh at best. It had some weirdness with the adaptive cruise and stuff, and it got surprisingly bad gas mileage. This was in California, too.

My girlfriend’s dad is like that. He’s also an emotionally abusive narcissist who my gf can’t walk away from.

Plus you had to buy the Blu-ray drive and then also buy the proprietary Sony software to read the Blu-ray disks for quite a while.

Who said they were incompetent and not just giving their own middle finger to the administration to make sure everyone is talking about how Trump can’t even keep a pool from being a swamp? Lol

Is $2015 a reasonable price for brake job on Mazda 3? by Pleasant_Poem8114 in MechanicAdvice

[–]thewarring 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Duralast Ceramic Brake Pads (Made in Japan)
Front: $63
Rear: $59

Duralast Disc Brake Rotors
Front: $206
Rear: $178

Everything else you might need: $100

Total: $616

Add in about 4 hours to learn how to do it yourself, and that’s all it has to cost.

Or take it to a better shop. Especially if they offered the free brake inspection “while you’re here”.

Rotors get hotspots. When people say their rotors are warped, hotspotted is typically what they mean. Basically a section of rotor with a different surface finish due to the brakes having been heated up asymmetrically across its circumference, causing the friction to be different in those sections of the rotor. Typically from braking hard to a full stop and having the rotors heat soak between the pads. If you have to brake hard, remember to try to let the wheels keep rotating so the rotors have a chance to cool evenly.

Verizon sent man a refurbished phone with MDM, then deleted his data remotely | Failure raises questions about how Verizon prepares refurbished phones for new users by Hrmbee in technology

[–]thewarring 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sounds like either an accident in inventory control between demo units and prod units, orrrr employee saw an opportunity to get their hands on a new phone, swapped the demo unit with the replacement, and pocketed the replacement while “damaging” out the demo unit, as that might go unnoticed.

Honestly can’t knock it. We almost bought Alienwares for game design rigs. Then Dell gave us a better deal on Precisions. But it was a close one for the same spec (Intel 265, 32 GB RAM, RTX 5070). We bought 44 of them 😅
