Well - you kinda asked two questions here, and the answers to each of them were different.

CRTs are quite dangerous. However, they aren't dangerous in a way that implies that there's any (additional) danger in sitting close to the screen. Hence, we've a yes/yes pair where the phrasing has implied either a yes/no pair or a no/yes pair.

Extended answer is therefor needed.

Hey are those bulky old tvs dangerous to be around or is that just something my mom told me so I wouldn't sit too close to the screen

a top down image of a trampoline with "tap on this point very quickly" superimposed on top. Doing so will zoom the image in and out which looks like you're jumping on the trampoline

(you need to view the image or you'll just like the post)

Since people liked it i made a toy that works on the computer: https://nick-nonya.itch.io/trampoline-toy Have fun!

... Generally, providing an incorrect definition reduces poll accuracy. Based on personal expectation & the comments on this, provided definition is just plain wrong.

A "girl's girl" is a girl who supports and uplifts other girls, prioritizing friendship and sisterhood (as opposed to a "pickme" girl).

... So, uh, assuming that that place is a recycling plant that is aware of what your workplace is doing, that would actually be good. Not as good as if they actually used different bags for each type, nor as good as if types that don't need them used open packaging, simplifying by not having the either plastic or paper bags having to be removed, but still...

Now, if that place is just a dump, possibly with burner, or their not saying that they do this, that'd be the sort of issue that should be counted against them. It's hardly the only factor in being 'green', so they could've won on other basises, but it wouldn't really be expected.

Well, *do* you just look towards the ends of internet arguments, or is your sample more like ongoing ones? Difference between checking planes that got shot down and concluding the gun works and checking fights and concluding the gun works.

'cause the image is definitely more like a gun than a plane.

This diagram of a WW2 plane instantly won so many internet arguments

The vanilla extract I see here may be tolerated. The baking soda is in excess, and likely is the salt.

You just have to understand you’re on the Internet. You’re literally on Tumblr dot com. This is not a random sample of the US population. You are not a one-person think tank. Polls on here are only useful if you are trying to create a recipe for a cake primarily made of vanilla extract.

My really cheap phone also does this sometimes.

Given the breadth of graphics options typically given, and that the CPU and GPU are the parts that ever get dedicated cooling, this is almost certainly a symptom of something with the CPU.

Given how I've seen my PC act, with 6 cores and either 3.6 or 3.9 GHZ depending on who you trust on that, I would advise against anything more than light web browsing, text editing, carefully chosen low-CPU games, and Maybe listening to music or watching videos on less than 8 CPU cores.

(And, hopefully, the "AMD 2 threads one processor trick" isn't as important as it sounds, or you get an AMD processor, I suppose).

And of course, the issue with that is quite clear: based on the prices and stats I see (AUD, in Australia), I estimate that phones outright stop having these problems somewhere around the $400 to $500 range; meanwhile, laptops start at the upper end of that range while on sale, takes another $500 "ticket price" to have the specified 8 cores, the number of cores, clockspeed, and such needed is always going up, and, unlike for phones, developers are not obligated to put in effort to fit to those 8 cores. (There's two speed stats, but it seems phones always have 8 CPU cores? A $399 had a bad number in the more variable one, and poor performance rating, while a $499 had a good number and mediocre performance rating.)

Laptops are always so much more Fucked than phones in my experience. A laptop is like a beautiful horse that wants nothing more than to break all of its legs. A decently solid android phone will act normal

I feel like most of these titles are either obvious or likely to be about the other thing, which so happens to be made of bubblegum - though TBF, I had pinned Bubblegum Crisis as likely to be either that second one or about the bubblegum supply running out, and it sounds like it isn't - but I'm properly unsure of what's up with "bubblegumshoe". I could quite easily see Bubblegumshoe as being about bubblegum gumshoes, bubble gumshoes, bubblegum shoes, or some combination thereof, after all.

While reorganising my media library I did a quick survey of word frequency in tabletop RPG titles (because I'm the sort of dweeb who thinks "hey, I should do word frequency analysis for no reason"), and while the results were largely unremarkable, it turns out I have like four different games whose titles contain the word "bubblegum".

The leak in question, according to the Wikipedia page, was September 12th, 2023, the day after the cited article's cited article released. The latest was in July 2024.

I don't think there's a logic under which you get to claim that phrase without oneself and the first sister don't count besides that...

I wish each individual chapter of a fic on AO3 had the date when it was posted, rather than just when the fic was first posted and when the last update was.  

That way you can see at a glance how often a WIP is updated, whether it’s fairly regularly or with huge long gaps between chapters; or if the first 20 chapters were posted in quick succession but the most recent couple were posted at long intervals, indicating that the writer is losing interest and may not finish, etc.

Having of only gotten context from Tumblr, I find myself lacking relevant information, and therefore unfortunately unable to vote, but also very little, and so ask:

Is this for challenge (/pride), curiosity, the joy of theft, being annoyed with her, or being hired?

If hired, somewhat more complex: what's the aesthetic of the person/group giving the job, did they give any directives (not to the level of 'steal X', of course), and are they using a voluntary employment model or no? (Both in particular and, if known, in general matter there.)

i love trends, and the jumping-on thereof, so:

And for the largest battery suckers, the most intrusive features, and the modules in modern hardware that outnumber the main ones that nobody seems to claim are used by normal programs, the product is sold by two names: the individual product name, which is useless in this kind of talk, and (Company's) AI.

In addition, a preexisting product having a marketing change to AI has been a good indicator of an observable drop of quality either soon or recently.

I don't want my cellphone to have AI I want it to have 3 days of battery time. I don't want my computer to have AI preinstalled I want it to have seven usb ports and high ram at affordable price. I don't want my games to have AI built levels I want them to be so optimized I could run them on a nokia.

The issue isn't them being in a landfill, really - that has its own explosion risk issues, of course, but once it's in the landfill, I suspect glass would be worse anyways.

I haven't heard this claim about them exploding compactors, but rather of them exploding in incinerators (one of the many things one shouldn't burn). Irregardless, this isn't 'it'll start a trash fire' but rather, that they'd destroy a much more expensive piece of equipment and, in the case of the compactor, not actually wind up in the landfill they were meant to get to.

AirPods Are a Tragedy
Apple claims that AirPods are building a “wireless future.” Many people think they're a symbol of disposable wealth. The truth is bleaker.

So, I've been thinking about what I've seen here, and, like, all the halfas (and Dan) have related themes, don't they? Like - Lab accident, Lab accident, Lab Eithics Issue, Probably Both.

And, like, ya know, 'scientist that is actually already dead' is a thing of haunted and sometimes overrun laboratories, and scientist's kid that is already dead is also fairly common. Not like you encounter either in every go, but, like...

Vlad, Danny, Dani and debatably Dan are all, like... fairly standard laboratory ghosts. The most normal-looking ones in the entire setup. May or may not do something like folding over in half and screeching at you depending on their mood and your vibe. Ya know?

If I'm recalling the lore right: off of their plane, on their plane, or the plane, since that's also Hermaeus Mora.

These are all in-catagory even around here, but only the last one pushes 'hear me out', I'm pretty sure.

Having of been exposed to an unpleasant quantity/intensity of mind control kink content, the first quote explains the overall statement.

i feel like it's difficult to say any character in utdr is treated "too jokingly" to be seen as serious when one of the most harrowing and tragic characters across both games is also someone who has canonically screamed about how you can milk him

Hilariously, if you go to the actual Reddit thread (https://www.reddit.com/r/csMajors/comments/1f8x5ma/world_record_rejection/), the poster of the story is saying that

1: That's not his position; he's called the tech lead. and 2: There was a lot of other reasons to fire that HR department, it's just that what he did was what finally convinced the higher ups to actually go and do it. He just simplified the story for the sake of the Reddit post.
