Ik heb een keer gehad dat de treindeuren nog dicht waren, en de trein helemaal donker was. Kon nog niet naar binnen. Dus ik raak verdiept in mn telefoon, tot ik plots zie dat het al tijd is voor mijn trein om te vertrekken. Maar de trein voor mn neus is nog steeds donker. Dus ik kijk eens rond me heen, en ik zie zo het voorste gedeelte van de trein wegrijden.
Anything that requires structurally lying or hiding information against the interest of the people I talk with/to. Sales, politics, advertisement, etc.
While catsitting I made the grave error of putting sardines (cat food) in the bowl of the cat. She sniffed it, turned around and sat down with her back to me. If I was going to put THAT into her bowl, I wasn’t even worth acknowledgement anymore.
If my knowledge about grenades from videogames is correct, you can just put a pin back in, if you kept the handle closed since pulling the pin.
Just chug a glass of olive oil.
This already exists if you know what to look for, and are willing to dive into a technical solution.
The bleep tone is usually a 1kHz sine wave (according to wikipedia). We can simply create a band pass filter that removes all 1kHz tones from the audio output of windows.
This does have side effects. Most notably that human speach, especially some female voices, are around this 1kHz frequency too. Since the tone was designed to mask voices, this makes sense. So I’m not sure if the side effects are worth it, but you can certainly try.
Creating such a filter on live audio can be done with something like this: https://github.com/AndreasArvidsson/WinDSP
Never tried it before myself, but the description matches exactly what you would need. You will want a PEQ filter with a high Q and significant negative gain around the 1000Hz frequency. I’m not an audio engineer, so I have no idea what values would work well. But if you want to play with those: a higher Q creates a narrower band around the 1000 to filter out.
Billionaires seem to think exactly like I think when I’m playing a game of Stellaris.
Invading primatives is usually a bad idea, because they get a stellar culture shock modifier for 50 years. But the livestock “job” does not really suffer from this modifier…
That makes it too easy: just attach a ropeladder to the broom. That doesn’t work if the broom stops levitating when you get off.
The flipside of this coin, is that a lot of people want to feel desired. Having someone who active craves you, can satisfy that desire.
I call this effect borrowing energy from the future.
I used to drink around 3 big mugs of coffee a day. Then I just stopped, cold turkey. Took a few months to get adjusted. But what surprised me, is that ALL tolerance to caffeine is gone. If I drink a cup of black tea, I will feel more focussed for a few hours, and less focussed a day or two afterwards.
I now only drink caffeine strategically. If I think todays problems are more important than the next two days problems, I drink some black tea or a cup of coffee. Otherwise I stick to decaf coffee, which fills the habit of drinking coffee perfectly.
Yeah, but in the bottom one, the people are packed infinitely dense, which will probably cause the train to derail, saving infinitely more people.
This is an idle/clicker/incremental game. Not really what I would consider a strategy game.
What about the Bob Marley printer? You know, the one that is always jamming.
Please change the titel of your post.
Hungary has a very low income tax. Hence the high VAT. Denmark has both high VAT and income tax.
Ik ben het eens met de gedachte. Dit moet echter wel met een zachte hand gehandhaafd worden, want nieuwsbronnen passen steeds vaker hun titels aan. Gelukkig kan in Lemmy de titel ook worden aangepast.
I’m so glad my friends and I all turn on DND mode on tuesday evening. After years of doing so, it has become a holy evening, were no other shit is planned on by any of us.
Before Microsoft demanded TPM 2.0, you could install the latest version of Windows on extremely old hardware. Easily reaching that 15 years. We had this already. And Windows 11 can easily run without TPM 2.0. Microsoft just has business reasons to demand it. So I don’t see how innovation is slowed down by this.
They probably a tree-species crewmember onboard.
I would say the Soviet Union and the Dutch VOC were both bad for the same core reason: they were an ideological extreme. Capitalism is only a good system, if it is localized and regulated. Otherwise a small group of people will come out on top and exploit everyone else. But the same holds for communism, as clearly seen in any nation attempting communism, you inevitably get a dictator who will exploit the people for his or her own good. The difference is that when you weaken communism by implementing only parts of it, like universal healthcare, or unemployment benefits, then we call it socialism.
