But that one answer has a 33% larger possibility of being chosen by random, than the remaining two.
- Comment on Do you know the answer? 4 days ago:
If you picked it randomly 100 times, would you be correct only 25% of time despite two choices being the same?
It must be a 50% chance.
But that would mean 50% is correct and…
Correct answer: all the answers in the multiple choice are wrong

This thread is full of insane people with insane workarounds to an issue they are alerted upon when activating 2FA.
Keep the recovery codes in a safe place - not on the same device.

Using 1080 to minimize latency already. Can play lesurely platformers, but even playing arcade racing games like Wreckfest, you just lose all feel for the car since tapping the controller applies the change with too much delay.
Hardwiring would be the only way. That’s why I’m gonna build a steam os pc for the living room once it’s feasible.
- Comment on Note: before tariffs 4 weeks ago:
BT would work if my PC was in range, then the input would be fast, but still the added image latency makes micro adjustments pain since you see them late, still.
Running a DP cable instead of streaming would fix that, but you’d need a converter to transform into HDMI for the TV.
HDMI over long distance doesn’t work.

1: Ah, I didn’t do any console gaming from around 2009 to 2015, didn’t realize it was that bad
2: Works for some games. I play lots of driving and fast paced games, and the input latency from streaming just plain makes them unplayable.

Exclusives sadly still exist and it bums me out a game is available on Console X but not on Y. Some if those I can buy for my PC, but I prefer playing on my comfy couch instead of the PC in my home office.

That’s a bs reason, email paywall bypassing is so easy that it could just as well not exist.

If I have none, clearly I have to mine more with my GPU.

A good point 😅

Being all out of fucks to give also implies they are finite and exchangeable.
- Comment on So now I have to PAY you to NOT store files on my device that I don't want? 6 months ago:
Sadly it is not, as you can pay to access content or pay by viewing ads.
Facebook uses the same model.
If you don’t want the “premium content” by paying with way 1 or way 2, you can’t use the site.

Unreal by Future Crew, 1993. The best fucking demo ever, hands down.
- Comment on Anon helps with his gf's vaping addiction 11 months ago:
I’ll chime in and say that 20mg is the highest legally sold concentration where I live. Mine is a small country though. I know Germany and Canada have the same max.
- Comment on Anon helps with his gf's vaping addiction 11 months ago:
When vapes came out and the devices were shitty and produced low amounts of vapor, the highest I saw was 30mg and 24mg, and the “marlboro red” equivalent was 18mg.
- Comment on Anon helps with his gf's vaping addiction 11 months ago:
50mg is also a metric fucton of nic in a vape. My strong mixes are 13mg, and low nic is 4mg.
- Comment on Anon helps with his gf's vaping addiction 11 months ago:
I’ve vaped since 2013 and have literally never heard of this. Could be regional 💁♂️
- Comment on Anon helps with his gf's vaping addiction 11 months ago:
50% nic lmao. Fake as hell.

On the other hand, I’m glad these are the issues we’re combatting against, instead of a corrupt bipartisan government.

- Comment on Has ethernet become illegitimate? A librarian flipped out after spotting me using ethernet 1 year ago:
You don’t have to believe it - everyone still knows you are. Time to wake up to reality.
- Comment on Has ethernet become illegitimate? A librarian flipped out after spotting me using ethernet 1 year ago:
You can’t claim shit about equality for all and access without materials, when discussing byod. Make up your mind.
Everyone has access, byod is covered for 99% as extra convenience.
You aren’t being treated poorly, instead, you have unreasonable expectations. You need to adjust those. You are not a victim, nor were you rights violated.
You tried to circumvent security when the computer room was closed.
The librarians education most likely doesn’t cover anything more than turning things off and on, he/she isn’t likely to understand what you were doing, and the equipment isn’t maintained by the librarians - it’s simply located there.
- Comment on Has ethernet become illegitimate? A librarian flipped out after spotting me using ethernet 1 year ago:
Everyone has access, phone or not, just not when the PC room sometimes is closed due reasons.
You don’t have 24/7 access rights as far as I’m aware.

That’s true if the guy didn’t know. But the girl ended up in jail and that’s poetic regardless of the substance.

- Comment on Price of electricity in Finland peaks at 2.35€/kWh today. Keeping my tiny granny cottage warm costs me over 50 euros for a single day. It's negative 25C (77F) outside. 1 year ago:
The math has been done multiple times. The batteries don’t pay themselves back, and also need to be replaced from time to time.
- Comment on Paypal won't let me remove by Debit card 1 year ago:
I had the same issue with Google Workspace. Could not terminate my subscription until I “deleted all apps”, and apps list was empty. My pre-cancelled tier did not have customer support privileges.
I had to cancel my credit card and have been getting warnings about being sued if I don’t add a working payment card.
