- Comment on What is an efficient workflow to separate and organize bulk scanned PDF documents? (At work; software is limited.) 3 days ago:
My opinion: Scan it again. It will be faster than fiddling with the bad PDFs.
Look at the dates while scanning.
Later sort them into folders first by year, then by the name of the author/adressee/business partner.
- Comment on If dark matter doesn't emit, absorb, or reflect light, what happens when light hits it? 3 days ago:
I’m not sure if we can detect that bend
I guess we could, if only we knew where our dark matter is :)
- Comment on Is it bad if I'm 31 and I feel genuinely sad and empty that a mythical creature isn't real? 3 days ago:
Nice try, AI
- Comment on What do you do when you have a cold and can't take medicine? 4 days ago:
Let the body rest. Strictly.
Keep your feet warm at all times.
Drink lots of warm (or hot) tea.
Alcohol is allowed (but remember, it is a drug) only once per day, right before sleep time, and only a small dose.
- Comment on How bad is it really to listen to music with headphones? My mother told me if I keep doing that I'd go deaf... Is that fearmongering? 5 days ago:
Ask yourself:
Do you like to hear loud music? At all?
If yes, then you are in danger. Then you need to be careful all the time, and even more so with headphones, because the feeling of loudness is disturbed a little with headphones.
Otherwise, forget it all.
- Comment on In the US we have Breast Cancer Awarnes month and a bunch of others. All we do is throw money at a problem and hope it goes away How come the Gov don't take care of people from starving? 6 days ago:
Not being from there myself, but: if I learned this correctly, Us governments have a strong tradition of not taking care of people.
- Comment on What's a 'common sense' thing that you genuinely don't understand, and have been too embarrassed to ask about until now? 6 days ago:
Only two wires?!?
LOL.
- Comment on Did y'all ever felt curious about your parent's past? If your relationship with parents isn't close, how does one get their parent's story without making the interaction awkward? 1 week ago:
When I was about 21 years old, I learned that I have a half-brother (who lives elsewhere). But I learned it from my older sister. I did not dare to ask my father what he did etc.
- Comment on Are physical mail generally not under surveillance? If everyone suddently ditched electronic communications and start writing letters, would governments be able to practically surveil everyone? 1 week ago:
In a large country, the percentage of mail that crosses their border is much lower than in a small country.
- Comment on Are physical mail generally not under surveillance? If everyone suddently ditched electronic communications and start writing letters, would governments be able to practically surveil everyone? 1 week ago:
would governments be able to surveil everyone? (Is it practial?)
The GDR has done it.
There were no computers at that time. All mail was physical. They did not surveil really everyone, but many targeted people, and presumably all letters from/to the West.
Today with strong computers and AI to scan through all texts, even hand writing, it would be feasable to do even more than that.
- Comment on what is the best fruit to leave in a fridge? 1 week ago:
Just my own experience. I eat an apple a day for several years now. I don’t know why it is.
- Comment on what is the best fruit to leave in a fridge? 1 week ago:
Most fruits, you want to keep at room temperature, in a dry and clean place. Some like it dark.
Nuts are OK in the cold, fried fruits too.
- Comment on what is the best fruit to leave in a fridge? 1 week ago:
Apples are the only fruit that you can eat really every day.
With all other fruits, it is better to have it only 1 day, or a few days, then change.
- Comment on Do air purifiers really reduce dust much? 1 week ago:
Yes.
- Comment on What exactly is the reasoning behind Satan ruling Hell? 2 weeks ago:
the final judgement where all who are irredeemable are destroyed.
From where do you get the part about destruction?
It is my understanding that they all will just be thrown out, where there are no good places anymore, because the current heaven and earth are destroyed, and new ones are built, but they cannot go in there.
- Comment on What exactly is the reasoning behind Satan ruling Hell? 2 weeks ago:
Satan ruling Hell
From where exactly have you got this idea?
- Comment on If "James Bond" is a codename, would a hypothetical female operative filling the same role receive the same codename? 2 weeks ago:
Once there was a Mrs. Bond…
- Comment on if you're offered a position you can use to advance your career but it involves people without boundaries, do you tell your maybe-future-to-be manager you don't want to work with those people? 2 weeks ago:
he thinks he is better than me, can you believe that?
Yes, absolutely. Quiet people often give this impression.
they start acting like teenagers
No, they are reacting in a normal way (one of many normal ways).
- Comment on if you're offered a position you can use to advance your career but it involves people without boundaries, do you tell your maybe-future-to-be manager you don't want to work with those people? 2 weeks ago:
Why don’t you tell these two “experts” to shut up and leave me alone? Do you really need a boss for that?
It’s the company’s duty to provide you a workplace.
It’s not the company’s duty to provide you a workplace where all people are perfect.
So you are trying to play the entitled one here. And I am sure that is not going to be successful.
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 2 weeks ago:
Letting them rot in the outcome of everything they do now. I say that is a fair amount of doing something about them.
- Comment on What's the name of the early-mid 2000's song that sounds like Beyonce, starts with a "dun...dun... dun DUN!" guitar part, and the singer makes this "dabudabudabu" sound? 2 weeks ago:
Why don’t you sing it for us?
- Comment on Why don't cars have a way to contact nearby cars like fictional spaceships do? 2 weeks ago:
You describe contacting the people in nearby cars.
That’s something different than contacting nearby cars.
The latter is developed currently by the car industry. The former has been mentioned: CB radio.
But in both cases: maybe they are not interested in listening to you ;-)
- Comment on Would it be correct to say that enshittification is the physical manifestation of the economic ai bubble bursting? 2 weeks ago:
enshittification is the physical manifestation of […]
Sorry, but I have always liked to believe that the term is not meant in any physical way!
- Comment on When kids come trick-or-treating, what happens if I choose trick? 2 weeks ago:
is a bit longer and elaborate in our language here
Pleeeease tell us the original :-)
- Comment on When kids come trick-or-treating, what happens if I choose trick? 2 weeks ago:
When I was a kid, there was no Halloween in our culture, but on a slightly similar occasion our verse ended with “…or we break a hole into your house”
- Comment on If this has been asked recently just link it no need to be mean, because I am emotionally sensitive right now. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 3 weeks ago:
You are trying (them) too hard.
GOP are not exactly well-known for such deep questions.
- Comment on What will the next age of innovative art culture create? 3 weeks ago:
Culture isn’t how a piano or a guitar sounds. Culture is the way how we humans live together.
- Comment on If you smoothened out the earth, how high would the water level be? 3 weeks ago:
Yes, I am going with approximations.
To be exact, you would need to use formulas about spheres, and you would also need to take care of the fact that the earth isn’t all too spherical now, and you would need to consider the water that is in the atmosphere (which would also expand then with the radius), and in ground, not above, etc.pp.
- Comment on If you smoothened out the earth, how high would the water level be? 3 weeks ago:
But who could sea the level?
- Comment on If you smoothened out the earth, how high would the water level be? 3 weeks ago:
I’d think not a lot higher than currently.
Because lower than currently :)
