Printers are solved now, you just don’t have one.
ryathalto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•How long does it take to understand a game? You don't owe it 100 hours.English5·7 days agoThere’s a really weird and large contingent of gamers that believe you can’t criticize or have a valid opinion on a game unless you complete the game.
ryathalto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•FBI reveals there's video to prove Jeffrey Epstein killed himselfEnglish11·8 days agoThe video features a second person labeled Epstein with a sharpie hanging Epstein.
ryathalto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does noise from different nearby sources 'add up'? Or do the different sources cancel each other out? In any case, please provide a formula and an example3·9 days agoThere’s a lot of things going with sound, but in general sound1 + sound2 is louder. You may not always perceive that, and if one of them is significantly louder, it’s not a significant difference. Active noise cancelling uses sound to make other sounds disappear, but this is just a trick, the pressure is still there (it’s why prolonged use of active noise cancelling can be bad for you).
When it comes to decibels, dB, it’s a logarithmic unit so adding them isn’t straightforward. You need to do logarithmic addition, so 5dB + 5dB = 8dB, and 90dB + 90dB = 93dB, but 70dB + 90dB = 90dB.
ryathalto Men's Liberation@lemmy.ca•Misandry isn't real because if you have any problems you aren't a man and don't count.41·9 days agoThis community isn’t well named. The prevailing opinion tends to be men are a problem until proven otherwise. It’s not about addressing men’s issues, unless those issues are how they can stop inconveniencing women.
A lot of this depends on perspective. Norman knights existed because France surrendered the territory to the Vikings, claiming them as a French success is a bit of a stretch. The effects on the English from William the conqueror, would be as much or more a viking win than a French one.
France winning the 100 years war just means after 100 years they finally repelled an English invasion. Napoleon’s empire was destroyed before his own death. WWI featured several massive failures of the French military that extended the war.
ryathalto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Serious question: why would(n't) you have a funeral for a toddler?122·9 days agoTo be fair that was the prevailing mindset for centuries.
ryathalto Men's Liberation@lemmy.ca•Misandry isn't real because if you have any problems you aren't a man and don't count.132·9 days agoYou can call it bait and be dismissive, but it’s a real problem for Democrats. It’s not all exactly the same, but this is consistent with why Republicans made gains with unions, White men, and Latinos.
Not nearly to the same degree, and most colleges have no problem kicking out domestic cheaters.
Harvard is private, there aren’t out of state fees. They do pay significantly more than American students, which is why universities are fine with ignoring the rampant cheating from foreign students.
ryathalto Warhammer 40k@lemmy.world•currently free on steam: Warhammer 40k: Gladius - Relics of WarEnglish2·12 days agoIt is a solid 4x game with a 40k theme. There’s also a ton of dlc, but if you don’t have fomo, it’s not so bad. The dlc has 2 flavors, unit packs that are pretty mediocre, and factions. It’s a game where you buy the faction you want and if you really like something in a unit packs, wait for sales though.
ryathalto World News@lemmy.world•Chinese factory worker sets fire to textile plant over 800 yuan in unpaid wagesEnglish6·12 days agoThere’s plenty of other factories that might even pay their workers.
BMI is correct for about 80% of people. The biggest problem is for people that are very tall, as you are 2 standard deviations from average height it works less well. The muscular argument is a fairly weak one, as the extra weight even as muscle can still be bad for your skeleton (and many that say they are muscular aren’t 2+ standard deviations from average).
I’m slightly shorter than you, but the best I ever felt was when my BMI was on the edge of normal and overweight.
ryathalto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•how did you and your partner change after having a baby?6·13 days agoThere are things you have to be prepared for and you will snap at each other at least once, your life will change and there are good and bad things about it. There are a lot of things you can do to help. Most things come down to proper planning and sticking to a rigid schedule for baby while being flexible about what each parent does. As a father be prepared to do 99% of of household things like cooking, shopping, cleaning, and laundry for about the first month.
- start sleep training early, like week 2 or 3. The earlier you start establishing a schedule the faster it works. Things get vastly easier if they sleep alone through even part of the night.
- get mom in post partum therapy right away, it’s more of a when not an if that she will experience some. Most experience mild symptoms, but a mom that gets even more fatigued and snippy makes everything more difficult.
- your free time will drastically reduce, this can be a big source of problems. Especially in the first few months. You can still do things, and you occasionally should, leaving the house is good for everyone, just be flexible with it. Also find something you can do in short bursts for relaxation.
Cheating is like divorce it’s common if you look at the percentage of relationships. They are both less common if you look at at individuals. Cheaters always cheat again, those who get divorced often do so again.
ryathalto NFL@lemmy.world•Bears shift focus for new enclosed stadium back to the suburbs from the Chicago lakefront2·19 days agoThe mayor or someone did propose a renovation, but it wasn’t very well received. The biggest problem is there’s not much room to work with as the stadium is wedged between the lake and Lakeshore drive.
It’s an Indian name, so the spelling is a bit weird.
ryathalto politics @lemmy.world•Trump lawyers tell Supreme Court that Constitution doesn’t apply to the president5·20 days agoIt’s the job of Congress to hold the president accountable.
Alternately, see the Bundy ranch standoff. A lot of guns and implication of actually using them led to the government basically backing down.
