It’s vague on purpose, what contributes is entirely contextual. It would take a lot to explain in detail and I don’t see a reason to spend the time when a high level summary gets the idea across.

I upvote things I disagree with if they contribute to the discourse in some way.

I set alarms and/or calendar reminders as a coping mechanism. I don’t always do the thing when the time comes but it at least gets forced back into my head over and over again until I eventually do it. My life has gone a lot smoother since I started doing this.

Yes, I only use it via syncthing-fork so this is a distinction without a difference to me.

Not sure if I qualify as extra paranoid but this whole situation feels very sketchy and has me reconsidering my use of syncthing. Making significant changes like this without any explanation is extremely bad practice.

How old is the cat? It’s only 1 ear or both ears?

At least $800, not more than $1k.

I’m disappointed in the screens they used but it unfortunately makes sense that 4k microOLED isn’t feasible. I wish the new controllers supported Lighthouse tracking too. If the new controllers really are proprietary to just this single HMD that’s a big failure in my opinion.

That is correct, it’s been quite awhile now since UEFI became standard but almost everyone still calls it the BIOS. Although I’ve noticed the word firmware is starting to be used more as well.

If the company is doing crime, document and blow the whistle. If it’s evil in a way that doesn’t have legal consequences, try to start a union so they fire you, then cost them as much money as you can with lawyers.

If the doctor was intentionally made ill, whoever is responsible is to blame. Otherwise, shit happens and it’s a no harm no foul situation.

Looks awesome. How much space is between the batteries? Could you push air through the gaps to cool them?

I recently received the Ludonarrative Dissonance achievement in Uncharted 4 for killing everyone instead of sneaking around. I found it a funny way to get scolded.

Probably and yes. From what I have seen there’s too much incriminating evidence for it to all be faked without assuming a level of competence from those involved that is very improbable.

21 and 17 can be a big gap, even 20 and 17 can be. It’s not as clear cut as 22, which can also be sketchy but is at least recognized as fully legal everywhere. I think there’s too much diversity in maturity and life experience at those young ages, the potential for issues increases so those kinds of relationships are inherently concerning in ways that relationships involving legal adults are not. I’m not saying they are inherently problematic, but if you know people with that kind of age gap you should be looking out for the underage person to ensure they aren’t being taken advantage of.

Definitely a warning sign. It really depends on the specifics because people mature at different rates, but there’s a much higher chance of it being problematic. There’s the half your age plus 7 rule, but it doesn’t really work if you are under 22.

Tracking balloons is not easy, “our weather balloons” intentionally transmit their locations. There’s a lot more stuff floating around up there, some of it intentionally designed and operated not to be tracked. It’s relatively easy and affordable to put a big balloon way up there so all kinds of people do for all kinds of reasons.
