  I thought we used arpg for that already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crypto genius⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You probably wouldn’t need laundered crypto, but you would need to be able to hide it from the bankruptcy court. This only works if you can clear the credit card debt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This sort of exists. Amazon had unmanned convenience stores that used cameras to track purchases. Sam’s club had an inventory robot the last time I was there. It’s not star wars level tracking, but it’s somewhat close.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When is it okay to drop out of college?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
  1. IT can be a good career without a degree, but it absolutely helps.
  2. Maintaining a full time job is far more demanding than college. If you can’t stick it out in class, I’m concerned about sticking with the job too. No job and student loans is even more stressful.
  3. You probably won’t go back, also classes expire if you aren’t actively taking classes. Yes it’s bullshit, but look into this before you decide.
  4. 40k debt isn’t awful, but 2 more years without payments is going to really balloon that. If you try to finish, doing everything you can to finish faster would be better.

  That makes more sense. I thought it was some 90s era novelty phone based on the pattern of holes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How long could one survive with only water and beer and no food?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  High malt, low alcohol beers could keep a person surviving for a pretty long time. You would likely run into some deficiencies in certain vitamins eventually, but that would take months to be a problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are there circles of melted snow on this icy pond?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If it’s used as part of waste water treatment these could be areas where water is released.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Giving blood exception⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Mad cow disease was prevalent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do I need a license to kill a squirrel?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If you intend to eat it, a hunting license is required.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do I need a license to kill a squirrel?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  For species that are listed as nuisance animals, it can be legal to kill them without a hunting license and out of a hunting season. If there’s evidence that the animal is causing significant harm, it can generally be killed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why people say good morning (or something like that) on chat after a night?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  To me someone saying good morning in a group chat is usually a bit of a fuck you to other members that aren’t having a good morning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to stop thinking about an interaction from my past?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Forgiveness is how you move past things. Also time helps, but mostly you choose to move on and get over any real or imagined slight. Your anger and resentment only hurts yourself and those close to you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨1 imitation whipped cream tub with a side of pie, please.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Cool whip is the margarine of the whipped cream world.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you know if you can win in texas hold'em?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Not in the same sense as with blackjack, but you can keep track of public cards to determine odds of a card appearing. For example, if you have one king in hand and there is one on the flop, it’s unlikely that 1 of the next 2 cards will be a king, so counting on it for a winning hand is a bad bet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Court rules Gabe Newell must appear in person to testify in Steam anti-trust lawsuit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re going to need a lot more than just I’m afraid of covid to get out of being in person for a trial. People with actual fears of being killed for testimony, still appear in person. At this point with vaccines making any serious complications nearly impossible for covid, it’s a really desperate attempt to avoid attending.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Court rules Gabe Newell must appear in person to testify in Steam anti-trust lawsuit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Court is boring AF, he’s just using covid for an excuse to avoid having to go. I can’t really blame him for trying, but I’m not surprised it didn’t work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can this discoloration be fixed? Is it rust?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks like you’ve worn the plating off, you can probably remove the black smudge, but nothing is bringing the color and finish back.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the Hamas/Israel war, why does Palestine have "hostages" but Israel has "prisoners"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Prisoners also implies a minimum level of treatment that hostage doesn’t.
