• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can’t trust task manager… how malware hides (3 ways)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You can tell it’s not Chrome because it’s only using 126mb.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  JavaScript is how most of the fancy stuff happens. Sites would be a lot more static without it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If i were a bird, how high could I go?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How high are you now?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If i were a bird, how high could I go?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Profoundly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone using Stirling PDF? Worth it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love it. Works great. I also don’t feel the need to have authentication in front of it; I just leave it internal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if all birds sing and if they do why do geese honk, ducks quack, and chickens bawk?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love this answer. Beauty is in the eye ear of the beholder.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if all birds sing and if they do why do geese honk, ducks quack, and chickens bawk?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because not all birds are songbirds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They Are Top Spenders in the Midterms. And They Hate Each Other.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate them both too.
  Not you, though. Thank you for saving me a click.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the deal with IPv6?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wish they would say that IPv8 is a proper superset of IPv4 and not that IPv4 is a proper subset of IPv8, just because they’re building IPv8 on top of the existing IPv4.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can a puzzle with missing pieces be considered complete?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  She completed a harder puzzle than the original. If she says it’s complete, it’s complete. And it’s now a much more interesting art piece than if it had all the pieces.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How is RAM size measured? Why doesn't it match the marketed size?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Name checks out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How is Alexander the Great so great he gets that name, but not so great that just “Alexander”doesn’t disambiguate him?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure it almost always references the salad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I drink more water?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I keep a jar with 64oz in it near me every day and pour that into a glass. It helps.

• Is there a medicine that has the same active ingredients as NyQuil without being so large?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steve Wozniak says he's "disappointed a lot" by AI and rarely uses it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can just… buy sheets of legal currency and cut it yourself?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any reason we were taught in school that blood is blue in the body until it reaches oxygen and then it turns red other than our veins look blue?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone here slamming you for asking, but I’m just now learning from this thread that that’s not true.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Westerners, what's your impression on the Chinese Diaspora? And what does the people around your area of residence think of the Chinese Diaspora?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  USian. No opinion. People are people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Right? Why would you bake it in?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the best free version of word?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This looks great; will play with it. I wonder if it’s got versioning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT to start showing ads in the US⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
  • doesn’t want to unintentionally plagiarize
  • uses the plagiarizism machine
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I deal with the outside world when I have germaphobia and don't really like outside?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  On top of this, medications like Sertraline help with OCD. (You’ll probably want both until you’re steady, not just therapy or meds.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Another example of “the economy” meaning the ultra wealthy’s bank accounts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Aight. Let's be honest. How many of you dress for yourselves, and how many dress for others?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Both; depends on the situation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do we still joke about setting up old wooden guillotines?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Compost the rich.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why can't we have a static vintage web?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe that the text would have to be in at least a <body> tag, so… you’ve got a bug. But yes, I was including browser bugs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why can't we have a static vintage web?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not without bugs to patch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Been looking into getting an "Indexed Universal Life" insurance policy. Are these trust worthy?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t forget the extra fees!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Been looking into getting an "Indexed Universal Life" insurance policy. Are these trust worthy?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Grab a broad-market index fund with the lowest fees (e.g., VTSAX), set regular purchases, and move on with your life. Avoid insurance products that claim to be investments. Avoid anything with higher-than-minimum fees or load fees.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think 1-2$ per drink is the recommendation because it’s easier to remember than doing the math, and you’re more likely to drop the cash and go rather than interacting with a busy bartender more. That said, if they’re doing full service for you (food, checking in on you), you should probably tip normally, because they’re acting as a server in that case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How much of a persons body is needed to survive?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Then we start getting into philosophy on self and also how much machine assistance is required. If you can provide nutrition and oxygen to the brain, you could probably be a brain in a jar and still count.
