Hate to be a naysayer, but I can’t really think of any examples of this 🤷🏾‍♂️ there’d be the random hyper realistic shots but I don’t remember any weird ones like that, and they were always animated

Some rich asshole isn’t taking half a quarter of your pay in taxes.

Some rich asshole is not paying his taxes and we have to pay more as a result.

That being said, 25% is comparatively low to other countries.

Close, I DM’ed a short-lived DnD campaign a year ago.

I remember having a thought one day as a young kid while interacting with a DVD main menu (the kind that had clips from the movie playing in the background, and would play a specific clip depending on what menu you went in to).

“This is basically how video games work, there’s a bunch of options you can choose from and depending on what you do it shows you something. Videogames are just DVD menus with way more options.”

I grew up to not be a programmer.

Ain’t got no chicken, ain’t got no rats

This is probably the funniest post I’ve seen here since the stupid moth shit took over. Please, where are the remaining 16 lists of objective facts?

Oh, that just pissed me off.

Couple weeks ago I was at a bachelor’s party, to which a number of people had brought Magic decks. I knew nothing about the game (never even watched a video), made this clear, and said that I just wanted to watch everyone else play.

Someone handed me a deck and said, “no buddy, you’re playing!” I protested, but it was fruitless. I’d been roped in; and I was excited! A group of people excited to show a new player their hobby.

The guy that handed me the deck then proceeded to explain nothing and get increasingly frustrated when I had no idea what he meant when he’d say “uh, no you have to UNTAP your cards first… ok now tap them… yeah I know you just untapped them but tap them 😠🙄” (I still do not know what the point of turning my cards sideways for two seconds was but I guess it’s super important?)

The other two players were fairly intoxicated and probably didn’t pick up on the toxicity, but the whole table was frustrated with how God awfully slow the game was taking since the new guy just wasn’t getting it. I just wanted to watch.

Up until now I thought homeboy had just oversimplified a few rules in his head and forgot a thing or two, but seeing that the actual instruction manual is 500+ pages, I’m furious that he had the audacity to forcibly rope a drunk person with zero interest in playing into the game, just to treat them like a moron for not instantly getting it.

Can’t you just check your bank account?

I have “saved” a lot of money over the years … yet my bank account doesn’t reflect that.

What the hell was the point of your original question 😂

Even this depends on diction.

“What is your favorite color?” - School teacher.

“WHAT- is your favorite color?” - Bridge Keeper

For real. I opened Lemmy the other day and had to block someone for the first time because they’d spammed the shit post community with pages of them within a few minutes. Like I enjoy viral memes as much as the next guy, but one person completely overran my entire feed from dozens of communities by posting what amounts to the same thing over 100 times in 2 minutes. I genuinely don’t get why people are trying to convince everyone they think it’s funny or enjoyable.

Two things are better on a water bed… One of them is sleep

Have literally never heard a positive experience of fucking on a water bed. Can’t imagine it would be enjoyable.

Its funny that “ur comment sounds AI btw 😏” has become the new “sick burn” for people with no argument. Especially when the comment in question reads absolutely nothing like an LLM.

Someone else already pointed out that these are usually pretty well insulated systems that don’t radiate much energy, but also consider how many dozens of gallons of water aren’t being wasted by waiting for it to be warm.

The advice is more meant for changing through gears, not starting from a stop. As mentioned, you don’t really need much gas to get going.

I see this sentiment posted a lot on here, and while I don’t disagree with the position, I’m not sure I understand what exactly is meant. When you say Americans should “grow a pair and fight”, what are you envisioning? Should I drive to my state capital and shoot the governor in the head?

Why do you specifically want this as a DLC? The epilogue you mentioned was a free update. If your argument is that Karlach’s story was cut/ unfinished, why are you upset that you can’t pay for it, and not upset that it isn’t there in general?

Wanting the content you mention makes sense, but being upset that a company won’t charge you more for a game you already bought is indeed signs of getting used to modern AAA practices

I recommended this on the first post, surprised they didn’t try it.

I see 3 options.

1, adjust your z-offset. I’m not familiar with prusa’s firmware, but if your first layer is bulging, it could mean your z-offset needs adjusting.

2, see if your first layer line thickness is set above 100%. By default some slicers lay an extra thick first layer; you might try decreasing this.

3, get rid of the white on the first layer, and just make the second layer white. This is how I do multi-color lettering/ designs and it works incredibly well. I can show you pictures if my description doesn’t make sense.

I used to be like this until I got a job that required constant phone calls. Now if I have to explain something using more than three sentences I’d much rather just talk.

I was using it to blow through an online math course I’d ultimately decided I didn’t need but didn’t want to drop. One step of a problem I had it solve involved finding the square root of something; it spat out a number that was kind of close, but functionally unusable. I told it it made a mistake three times and it gave a different number each time. When I finally gave it the right answer and asked, “are you running a calculation or just making up a number” it said that if I logged in, it would use real time calculations. Logged in on a different device, asked the same question, it again made up a number, but when I pointed it out, it corrected itself on the first try. Very janky.
