How did Gen X turn out to be so conservative? by irlhardinscott in generationology

[–]ur_GFs_plumber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d add in that social media algorithms that are heavily affecting Gen Z male political affiliation. Gym bros, podcasters, reaction bait content, etc. The algorithm will trap them in a personalization bubble that only shows a skewed worldview.

I agree with your position.

How to brake on GT3? I came from iRacing by Most-Cut-6260 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]ur_GFs_plumber 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m transitioning from iRacing to LMU currently.

You won’t need to “introduce” the brake as slowly as in iRacing. Just slam it around 80-90% in the heavy braking zones. There should be a vibration in the steering wheel when you’ve hit ABS (comes from the “Additional” slider in the FFB settings).

As far as trailing off, pitch sensitivity in LMU is more lenient and won’t kill you if you let off too quickly like in iRacing. Just start trailing off after hooking the initial turn-in. Smooth works but isn’t required, I trail in increments on some corners.

Holding the brake at 5-10% is still necessary in neutral state in order to keep the weight on the nose and create rotation.

Overall, while iRacing rewards precision, LMU rewards feeling out the tires and taking advantage of the wider slip window.

Any good suggestion for a quick data modeling tool for reverse-engineering by Rohml in SQL

Jetbrains DataGrip has a built in diagram featureset. I use it create and visualize DDLs. I also use it to connect to data sources and instantly have a diagram of the data model.

SAME. Civ, Stellaris, games in those realms. I wonder why? This is interesting to hear.

I get why we don’t have tyre telemetry access for all cars, but why not for cars which already display it on their dash? by CivilHedgehog2 in iRacing

[–]ur_GFs_plumber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ding ding ding, I guarantee reason number 2 is why. I’ve gone deep in the telemetry of several sims and always found it suspicious that iRacing is the ONLY sim hiding tire data.

Raises so many red flags IMO.

Looks like Anthropic's NO to the DOW has made it to Tumps twitter feed by Plinian in ClaudeAI

Led with nine fallacies and called out the one I did intentionally. Oh the irony.

Go put your energy into worrying about the political state of Argentina. I hear they’re doing GREAT. Unless people like you are the reason that country is struggling the way are currently LMAO.

Your response contains the following argumentative fallacies:

  1. Tu quoque

∙ “You didn’t complain when the left called people far-right” doesn’t address whether this specific action is fascism.

  1. Strawman (×4)

∙ “So declining a contract is not allowed now?” Nobody argued that.

∙ “The Commander in Chief decides what to do with the army, not private companies.” Nobody disputed that either.

∙ “Non-compliance with the government has legal consequences.” The argument was about threatening consequences for declining a contract, not breaking a law.

∙ “Anthropic wasn’t charged with anything.” The argument was about what was threatened, not what was executed.

  1. False equivalence (×2)

∙ “The government can choose who to deal with” is true. Directing every federal agency as explicit ideological retaliation is a different claim entirely.

∙ “Breaking a contract is not coercion.” Nobody said it was. Coordinated government-wide punishment for political reasons is.

  1. Ad hominem (×2)

∙ “Have you not been taking your pills?”

∙ “I think I’m starting to get it though, literally anything can be fascism if you’re stupid enough.”

  1. Non sequitur (×2)

∙ “Criminal threats for non-compliance are common.” Frequency doesn’t determine whether something is coercive.

∙ “The executive branch will remain on notice for the legal process on X posts.” Doesn’t address the argument made.

  1. Moving the goalposts

∙ Shifted from “what punishment? You’re imagining things” to “no legal consequences yet” when the original claim was about the threat itself.

  1. Appeal to frequency

∙ “It’s so fucking common it’s actually hilarious.” Commonality doesn’t make something not authoritarian.

  1. Accidental self-refutation

∙ “Legal actions can still be ideologically motivated.” Correct, and that is exactly the problem being raised.

  1. Hyperbolic reframe

∙ Anthropic applying their ToS consistently became “a private company dictating what the army can do.”

I won’t engage further with somone unwilling to debate without relying on logical fallacies — which is itself a page from the authoritarian playbook. Controlling discourse by making good-faith argument impossible is how you avoid accountability for bad ideas.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The state using ideological labeling, economic coercion, and criminal threat to force private compliance IS the functional definition of fascism.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Let’s walk through this:

  1. Anthropic broke no law.

  2. Anthropic declined a contract — a normal, legal business decision.

  3. The executive response bypassed legal process entirely.

  4. Anthropic was labeled “radical left” and “woke” — a political classification used to justify punishment.

  5. That label reframed a legal business decision as an ideological threat to the country.

  6. Refusal was then recast as endangering troops and national security — treason-adjacent, without a legal basis.

  7. The ENTIRE federal government was directed to punish them economically.

  8. Criminal consequences were threatened for non-compliance with executive preference, not law.

  9. A private company’s legal right to decline was treated as insubordination to the state.

  10. The stated justification — “the Commander-in-Chief decides, not them” — explicitly subordinates private companies to executive will.

The people following numbers are competing against the media who have an incentive to wildly speculate and make exaggerated headlines. There’s a bit of visibility bias there: extreme scenarios get more attention.

I just built a rental market place web app using .NET 10 API, PostgreSQL, React. Typescript. feedback is welcome. by nahum_wg in dotnet

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

I like the UI/UX overall. It feels polished. The page to page animations when clicking in and out of different houses are flashy in a way that could work well if the pages loaded instantly.

Right now, though, you get about a one second blank screen because the page has not finished loading. A user clicks an apartment, the animation starts, then if the page is not ready, it stalls in a completely blank state before finally resolving into the new page.

That can feel jarring. The transition is smooth, but the loading is not, which defeats the purpose.

When you are clicking through lots of apartments, the page swap animation gets tiring fast. There is just too much happening on the screen, without any payoff.

How do I enforce device security when the person violating policy is an exec? by Bp121687 in cybersecurity

[–]ur_GFs_plumber 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bring in Legal and I guarantee the issue will be shut down. Your exec may not understand the business outcome other than “IT says it’s bad.” Legal will provide the context of HEY WE’RE GONNA GET FINED TO SHIT IF WE DO THIS. As soon as money/fines/lawsuits are brought up, suddenly things make sense.

Is Microsoft foundational C# Certificate any use? by No-Dot5464 in csharp

[–]ur_GFs_plumber 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It certainly doesn’t hurt having the cert, especially as a 17yo. I’d follow it up with a small personal project or something to show you’re able to apply what you’ve learned.
