My 15yr old dishwasher does this with a timer functionality. This doesn’t sound like the strongest use case.

True but my colleague become obese doesn’t make me obese by working next to him. (Unless he insists on sharing all his snacks lol. Even then I have a choice)

Why do you think I’m on a high horse? People complaining about masks taking away freedom don’t seem to be rioting about freedom of drinking and driving as an example. I’m all for freedom. Heck I donate to EFF and ACLU annually. I’m also for

You becoming obese doesn’t affect me the way you catching Covid does. Yes obesity eats up healthcare resources as well but not to the degree and certainly not as quickly as Covid cases do.

I don’t think they value freedom. I think it’s mostly a cult following. People made their decision then looked for reasons to support it.

I found a bug. When there is a repeated character in the guess but not in the word, you’re given an incorrect color key. E.g. Word was GROUP I guessed SPOON Output was green O at location 3 and yellow at 4. Happened for a couple more gue

Plastic is used to save weight. I have both new RF lenses and the old EF lenses. The RFs are better in every way like for like and are much lighter. Makes a ton of difference when carrying around. I don’t think it’s all about cost saving.

So your point is medical professionals don’t fall sick primarily due to their immune system? Don’t you think this has to do with their personal protection equipment and routine of washing hands etc?

The airplane seatbelt isn’t to help in a crash scenario. It’s so that you don’t honk your head during a turbulence and injure yourself or others.

So much anti-mask rhetoric here. No mask < cloth mask < surgical mask < N95 etc < P99 etc None of these are 100%. Does not mean they’re 0% effective. When I cant get an entire Pizza but I can get 2 slices I don’t say ah fuck it,

There’s always someone who makes this argument “don’t use them”. This is no longer grounded in reality my friend. If there are 2 restaurants in town - one that continuously snaps pictures of my every move and the other that won’t let me dri

That just sounds like regular clogged arteries to me. Not a doctor but I don’t think that has anything to do with any vaccine.

This is horribly gamed. Host/renter give each other good ratings. Or neither rates because neither is sure what the other person will do so they wait for the other in a stalemate.

This reminds me of a time when a black dude knocked on my door to tell me he was going to climb over from near my balcony to some surface above to get something his kid had gotten stuck there. I had a “ok why are you telling me this?” Look

Interesting data. I wonder how this correlates to population and industrial activity. On a side note, they could have chosen better colors. I can’t differentiate between a couple of them.

Does it work out of the box or do you need to do something specific. I have a custom built desktop with a 4k and a 1080p monitor. I can get one of them to look good. :( I’m on mint.
