But they're aluding to the fact that one of the main reasons people don't use banks is because they owe someone money and their bank accounts are able to be garnished. The only sure fire way to keep your money from being garnished is to keep it as physical cash.

Why did she only capitalize a single "I"? Like it's litterally the only capital letter. Also she didn't capitalize the other "i". Why didn't she just leave them all lowercase? I need to know this.

I'm personally in a small 3 bed 2 bath single family house in MN. The place looks like a crack den on the outside but the inside is cozy enough. It's not even rural, it's technically in a "minor metropolitan area" (aprox 70,000 population).
I pay about $950 per month for mortgage, taxes, and insurance. (It's all in escrow so IDK what they are individually off the top of my head). I pay about $120 per moth for 100GB down 20Gb up internet. I pay on average about $200 per month for electricity (more in summer less in winter). My water and trash are a basically just a rounding error alongside the rest (less than $100 per month combined).
As far as unexpected expenses go, the big ones are furnace and water heater. I had an emergency furnace repair last winter and that put me back like $500 despite the issue just being a bad gas valve and him having to do all of 5 minutes of troubleshooting because I had identified the exact issue prior to the tech showing up. If you can do your own work then you can mitigate these costs quite a bit but generally you're best off having like $5,000 laying around in case of any emergency issues not covered by insurance.
When it comes to more rural my dad lives not far from me and he has a well and septic tank. Both are nearly 2 decades old and have not needed any maintenance other than getting the septic tank pumped every few years which costs about $300. Well expenses are just maintenance costs (like I said his hasn't needed any in nearly 20 years) and the electricity cost for pumping the water which is negligible. Regular water testing is also generally recommended but generally speaking if the water starts out fine then it will stay fine unless something major happens in the area. He only heats his garrage via oil but it's really not too much different from other methods. Generally you will pay a company that fills your tank at regular intervals and they'll just bill you for how much they have to put in. So it winds up being much larger payments but you also only make them once or twice per year.
I have some relatives who are really out in the boonies and their internet is really garbage but they could also probably get better internet via satellite and I'm not sure how that works. If you're really remote like that you will also want things setup like backup generators and you will need to know how to do your own emergency maintenance because sometimes you just can't make emergency service calls. You also need equipment to manage your land, most of those relatives have at least a tractor with a bucket and blade attachment. You will also need a vehicle that can handle unmaintained roads especially in areas that get heavy snowfall.

The reason nobody questions Trump is because there is no question. He is incompetent. Questioning it like questioning if the sky is blue. The only people who don't know he is incompetent are those who have lost all touch with reality. There is no swaying them because simple things like facts mean nothing to them so what is the point of continuing to shout the same things that every remotionally rational person already knows.
At least arguing about biden can lead to some actual change as we can see by the fact he isn't running anymore. We can't change the republicans but we can make the democrat party better so hopefully they can win.

Well I'm not in Kentucky but the company was Fastenal and they definitely have warehouses there. They're a big international industrial supplier. I was only warehouse adjacent when I worked for them but I know the warehouse benefits and pay were pretty middle of the road in my location. They've got a whole internal education program which is actually surprisingly good. All in all it wasn't a bad place to work.
If you want fitness then pick to light in one of their warehouses will definitely get you that. And they definitely do forklift training. Idk if I can link here but if you just google fastenal then they will pop up.

In most factories and warehouses they generally don't give a damn what you wear as long as it covers the important bits and it isn't a safety issue. I have a friend that literally just works in her sports bra on hot days at her warehouse job and nobody cares. Odds are they will also pay much better than retail too. Of course depending on the environment there may be special considerations like steel toe shoes or such. But steel toes are alt fashion anyways.

My mom works in the labor and delivery department at the local hospital. I won't say it's terribly common but, on several occasions, people have been brought in actively in labor but insist there is no possible way that they're pregnant. The mind boggles.
Unfortunately it is because of people like that that most hospitals insist on pregnancy testing every woman that comes in for anything regardless of what they say.

The fact people are more efficient probably doesn't mean more efficient than working 8 extra hours to them.
Exactly, for a lot of manufacturing the bottleneck is how quickly machines run. For example right now I work in an electronics plant and our surface mount lines are limited solely by machine runtime. The operator is only there to swap out empty component reels as needed, load stacks of bare boards in ocasionally, and place the rare hand placed component. An especially slow operator can of course slow things down a bit if they can't do those tasks quickly enough, but it is very rare for the operator to be the bottleneck. There is a direct linear relationship between hours run and quantity of product produced usually regardless of operator efficiency.
There is no way my employer would ever pay the machine operators the same amount to work less. It is actually in my employers financial best interests to have the machine operators work as much overtime as possible because the amount they pay for benefits is not based on hours worked so even with overtime pay included, the amount they pay per manhour is actually slightly reduced past a certain overtime threshhold.

Oh my god this explains so much! I always wondered why sites would show torrents having +200 seeders and I would be lucky to get maybe 10 when downloading. I'll have to get my port forwarding set up. Thank you so much!
Now I just need to switch VPN providers but I've been planning on doing that for a while anyways.
Fosheze 1 week ago • 100%
I've never done any manual port forwarding for torrenting and everything seems to download and seed correctly. Does the client automatically do it? Is it only required for private trackers? Once again a genuine question because I only know just enough about all of this to avoid the letters from my ISP.
Fosheze 1 week ago • 100%
So, genuine question, what do you do using your VPN where you need port forwarding? I keep seeing people say that port forwarding is a requirement in their VPN but nobody says what they actually use it for.
To my knowledge you should only need that if you're hosting something through your VPN but I don't even know how that would work or why you would want to do that. If you're doing that then why not just rent a remote server and not need the VPN? I can't think of anything off the top of my head that would need to be hosted from home, accessible remotely, and be completely hidden behind a VPN.

Depends on the state and county. I'm sure some county somewhere allows that. Medical jewelry is also allowed for a DNR in some states.
Fosheze 1 week ago • 100%
For the first question. The responders will act exactly as if there is no DNR until you give it to them. Yes, that sometimes means wasted effort but it's better than the alternative.
For your second question, by legitimate I basically just mean that it's not written in crayon on a piece of notebook paper or something. Generally speaking the forms are pretty standard and issued by the healthcare provider. Generally you're just looking for a physicians signature and a date. Some states also allow DNR medical jewelry. The exact specifics on the DNR do vary a lot based on state and county so the local responders will know what they need for their area. As far as every second counting goes, that's why you have a whole ambulance crew.
Fosheze 1 week ago • 100%
First responder here. The DNR doesn't mean a damn thing until it is literally in your hands. Until that time you respond as though there is no DNR. If you're wrong and they did have one but just didn't have it on hand then you accidentally save someones life, you're still legally in the clear, and I guess they can just die sometime later. But if the DNR turns out not to be real/legitimate and you didn't act just because you were told there was one then you just killed someone and you're completly fucked.
If you have a family member that has a DNR then be damn sure everyone knows where that thing is because unless you have it physically there when they are dieing then it doesn't mean anything.
Of course in places like nursing homes there is a different procedure. They know who has one on file and they will usually tell dispatch about it before the ambulance is even sent. But if it happens just in your home or someplace then the ambulance crew can't just take your word for it; they need the document in hand.

Is this the dude that coppied me in calc but didn't realize that the professor very obviously handed out 2 different versions of the test? Like I repeatedly saw him staring at my answer sheet and thought "noone can be that stupid" because the two test versions were literally printed on different colors of paper and the professor told everyone they were different versions to prevent cheating. Then to my immense delight the professor called him out on it the next day by congratulating him on getting 100% on the wrong version of the test.

Damn it! I just started a new good campaign because I knew I'd need to run an evil one when this dropped. Oh well. Time to abandon another campaign.
So I recently upgraded every component in my PC to be fairly high end, except I didn't have the money to upgrade my GPU at the time so I was running with my old GTX 1070 for a while. Today I had some extra money so I finally got around to picking up a RTX 4070 super. While installing it I just discovered a slight hitch in my plan. My primary monitor is 4k and uses display port so it isn't an issue. But my secondary monitor is an ancient 1080p monitor which only uses dvi and vga. The 4070 super only has display port and HDMI slots. I've been running with two monitors for so long that I don't know if I can stand going back to a single monitor. It's already too late to run out and pick up an adapter so my plan for now is to install both GPUs in my PC and just pull the 1070 back out whenever I get around to getting a new secondary monitor or an adapter. Will a RTX 4070 super and a GTX 1070 both work in the same PC or am I just stuck with one monitor until I can get an adapter?

A friend of mine just sent me this picture and said someone they knew just got a capybara. I informed them that that definitely isn't a capybara. Now neither of us know what it is. It kinda looks like it's in the uncanny valley of the rabbit species. Is it just a fucked up looking rabbit?
Seriously, what sadist saw a flat PCB surface, flat pick and place machine heads, and said "lets create a round component"? Joking aside I am genuinely curious what advantage the MELF design actually offers. I know they're a pain to get a machine to place properly, they have more solder flow issues than components with flat leads, and they seem like they would be harder to manufacture too. So why a round component? Anyone here have any insight on why they even exist?
So I just discovered that I have been working next to the waste of oxygen that raped my best friend several years ago. I work in a manufacturing environment and I know that you can't fire someone just for being a sex offender unless it directly interferes with work duties (in the US). But despite it being a primarily male workforce he does work with several women who have no idea what he is. He literally followed a woman home, broke into her house, and raped her. Him working here puts every female employee at risk. How is that not an unsafe working environment? How is it at even legal to employ him anywhere where he will have contact with women?
So I'm planning out a bathroom remodel and part of that is replacing the vent fan because currently mine is just venting into my attic (no bueno). I know normally bathrooms are vented out through the roof but my bathroom is on an exterior wall so I was wondering if I could just vent it out the side of the house. I'm going to be ripping open that wall anyways and I would much rather cut a hole in the side of the house than run a vent pipe up through the roof. Also I'm in Minnesota if climate is a concern.
I work on equipment that runs off 3 phase 208V but it uses uses a transformer to drop it down to 120V for most of the controls. On this equipment I noticed that there are two fuses on the lines exclusively feeding the 208V side of the transformer and a fuse directly off of the hot side on the 120V side of the transformer. Isn't the fuse on the 120V side of the transformer redundant? From my understanding, if there is a current spike on the 120V side of the transformer then that will cause a current spike on the 208V side of the transformer and immediately blow those fuses anyways. Is this just a certification thing where that redundancy is required? I'm in the US but this equipment does also get shipped to various overseas locations. Also, while it isn't standard, this equipment is capable of passing a TUV inspection if a customer requests it so I'm not sure if the potentially redundant fuse is just a TUV requirement.
I've been seeing a lot of users from alien.top commenting in various threads (mainly sports) lately. They only caught my attention because they are all flagged as bots and I typically manually block most bots (not all because there are some I like). For every one of them their entire post history consists of 1-2 comments or posts. When I took a look at that instance there is nothing there at all and it also shows no users. The comments look human enough but I guess I wouldn't be surprised to learn that all the comments are LLM generated. Is alien.top just someones LLM experiment or is something else going on here?
So I'm a refrigeration tech with some electronics manufacturing experience. But I've never combined the 2 skillsets so I've been toying with the idea of building a large vapor chamber to cool a computer via direct immersion in a refrigerant. I know its about as far from practical as you can get but it sounds like fun. Ignoring all of the many many other problems with doing this for now the one thing I'm not sure about is how well the electrolytic caps on the various components would survive. I would need to pull a fairly hard (500 micron) vacuum on everything before I charge it with refrigerant. I know most electolytic caps aren't vacuum rated but I'm not sure if that just means you can't have them operating in a vacuum or if they will immediately pop if you just subject them to hard vaccum period. Additionally while I am planning on using a low pressure refrigerant (probably some R-123 substitute but I'm definitely still working on that part) the components would all still be subject to pressures of up to about 20 PSIG at the high end. Beyond that point I would probably have an active cooling system kick in just for safety sake. I'm not sure how well the caps in particular would survive being immersed in a liquid under 20 PSIG pressure. Does anyone here have any experience subjecting electrolytic capacitors to hard vacuum or elevated pressure? At what point do they just pop?
So I just went and donated blood again and durring the recovery period it occured to me that it takes quite a bit of work for your body to regenerate that lost blood volume and the actual blood cells. Regrowing that many cells seems like it would be fairly energetically intensive. So how many calories does producing all those new blood cells actually consume? Is there even a way to know that?
While doing some exploration earlier I got a BPC for a Capital Gravity Capacitor Upgrade II. The weirdest thing is that the BPC isn't completely worthless. Contracts for that BPC still go for a couple million isk which means someone must be buying them and producing capital sized scanning rigs. So now the real question is, who the hell is fitting their capital ship for scanning?
