You can choose 1 superpower, but the first reply is the side effect. What superpower would you choose?

Hmm yeah I obviously haven't figured that out yet.

Five generations would be 10 people. If one of them was native American, their descendant would be 1/10 native American.

YSK How to cook a perfect (hard) boiled egg

Jump

workerONE @lemmy.world 2w ago

I should say that the main goal of this method is to make eggs that you can peel the shells off of very easily, whether or not the eggs are very fresh. If the eggs you buy don't have problems peeling then this method might not be the best for you.

With my method you won't have hard to peel eggs regardless of if they were fresh or not

Whenever you see a driver following too closely or driving erratically try to get away from them, change lanes, let them pass, whatever. Also try not to drive next to other cars. Stagger positions so if they have to serve into your lane they won't hit you. Last tip is don't drive in people's blind spot when they are in the next lane. Pull ahead of them or let them get in front of you

Got any home audio recommendations for small spaces?

Jump

This Yamaha receiver https://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio_visual/hifi_components/a-s801/features.html#product-tabs

And Ascend Acustics CBM170 https://www.ascendacoustics.com/products/cbm-170se-bookshelf-monitor-single?variant=40047176843318 These are bookshelf speakers but aren't tiny, sacrifice a couple of inches of space for the better sound. These out perform $1000 speakers.

And a subwoofer, but I can't make a recommendation

Or if you want best sound for less $ a larger JBL like the boombox or partybox 310

'Valve does not get anywhere near enough criticism': DayZ creator Dean Hall says the 'gambling mechanics' of Valve's monetization strategy 'have absolutely no place' in videogames

Some good points. I can't remember where I saw this, but a game recently made their loot boxes randomly generate loot which was then shown to the player who had the choice of whether or not to open a box. This is much better than blindly opening boxes where you won't know whether or not you will want the item inside.

Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately?

workerONE @lemmy.world 2mo ago

Are you aware that there are people in this world that have a severe medical condition which causes them to be that way? My mother for instance is one of those people. She is a truck driver that has bad knees and a bad back from driving the truck but you probably do not care about that case either. Oh well I am not one of those people I am 6'4" 245lbs and I exercise every day. I would love to see you say something like to my mother in front of me. Probably never happen though you are probably just an internet tough guy. I doubt very seriously you would say that to someones face. Just my thought.What do you think. Oh I am sorry you probably do not have a brain. I on the other hand will be happy to buy you a plane ticket to come here and see if you have the nerve to say that to someone I know.

Make sure their email has a spam filter. Have a discussion with them about what's possible today, about the different types of scams.

Anyone else got a weirdly low pain threshold?

workerONE @lemmy.world 2mo ago

If you drink a lot of coffee or take ADHD medication like Adderall your nervous system will be very alert and overly-receptive to any pain

Valve invents new Counter-Strike 2 loot boxes that successfully dodge anti-gambling regulations

Jump

workerONE @lemmy.world 2mo ago

I think being able to see the item and having the option to purchase is much better than opening a random box that you have no idea what you'll get.

YSK that Gerrymandering allows politicians to determine election outcomes by changing electoral maps. In most western countries, it's illegal. Gerrymandering is common in the United States

Jump

workerONE @lemmy.world 4mo ago

Right, but without districts you could have ranked choice voting so the farmers in central California can vote for candidates that they want to represent them and all of their votes should be able to elect those candidates. Meanwhile, people who vote in other regions should have enough votes to elect candidates of their choosing.

From reading the comments of others I'll say it seems like I'm pretty uninformed about how the actual process works. But what i meant was that if there are 6 electoral votes and each candidate wins 50% if the votes in the state then they both get 3 electrical votes. If there are 8 electoral votes and someone wins 27% if the vote they get 2 votes, not all or nothing

Good point but for presidential elections, electrical districts don't make any sense. You could just use the total votes for the whole state to allocate electoral votes. Also, if the districts are being manipulated to provide a skewed election result then are the districts really groups of people with similar needs?
