I mean there's a point when you can go "why bother selling a game when i can learn to algo trade and maybe get hired by a major investment bank" if you really want to push the logic of all money no creativity to its inevitabl

I've stripped out every sort of head. It isn't the heads fault really. Lack of thread treatment and/or correct application of torque is the cause and can happen to any head.

What is the name for the sort of toy car you push in one direction and it continues slowly in that direction? These ones were usually styled as 4x4 vehicles and almost moved like a rock crawler with the 4wd set to low. They could be pushed

Once again expressing my opinion that this is the worst anti feature of the site. Threads are like commenting in the void because most people are not going to be looking for replies to comments they made days or weeks ago. I see the true da

There is some sort of wink wink nudge nudge agreement going on with certain spam accounts. You will see them post article spam with hidden history, and if you look up their posts either via google or any other reddit crawling tool, they are

Mine walks in with the blood pressure machine and gets right to work. I maybe have him for 10 focused minutes then he leaves and I leave shortly thereafter. Sometime later in the day my electronic chart will update.

Meta: Those iPhone ads with the phone covering the face perfectly have been some of the most disturbing ads I've seen in recent history. Pure Black Mirror horror. Doesn't even look like it's the actor's own hand.

Of course he is because even if the doctor typed like that, how would the patient see it? They don't do that in the exam room with the patient there. I wonder how long it's been since they've even had an appointment with thei

Pro golfers look a good 10-20 years older than their real age sometimes fwiw. In contrast to most other pro athletes in indoor disciplines who generally look better than their age. There's also examples of truckers who spent most of th

I wouldn't be surprised if linux is banned in the next couple decades. They might make it where all new hardware sold can only run some validated set of OSs. They might try and hunt for unregistered compute leaking its ip on the intern

If you ever saw any of the FPV drone ukraine videos (which I don't recommend as they are very graphic) it seems like they move at standard dji quad copter speeds, chasing people for a bit, even the final push seems a bit slow. Not sure
