  • Why in hospitals, is 'gun shot wound' abbreviated as "GSW"-

    Jump

  • Just pulling this out of my ass, but perhaps it's an artifact from handwritten medical charts. GSW is shorter to write.

  • How come laptops or pc's don't have a "webcam" facing both ways instead of just the user?

    Jump

  • I wouldn't suggest that there is no use for this kind of camera. Yours is a good example. But for the cost and risk of damage, that is not something that most would want by default in a laptop.

    Also I have a phone with a camera for that purpose

    Jump

  • Why would you be sitting behind the screen? If you need to film a conversation between two people with one webcam...have the webcam face their profiles

    To answer your question directly- because it wouldn't serve a need that users typically have.

  • Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games)

    Jump

  • Multiplayer games should have toggles to allow more than 4 people. Why do we need to install mods or change a 4 to a 6 in some config file?

    This obviously doesn't work for games like It Takes Two where more than 2 players would be senseless, but your survivalcraft game shouldn't be limited in the same way.

  • What's an album with a completely unique sound

    Jump

  • I actually think their first album has much more of a unique sound than that second one.

  • It's true...

    Jump

  • There is nothing worse than a soggy or extra sour grape in the bowl

  • It's gross regardless, yes, but the movie explicitly states that they cut away or change cameras during moments like this, even into his adulthood.

  • Do the implications here worry anyone else?

    Jump

  • Aren't there many hundreds per year? As in more than one per day? I'm probably conflating mass shootings with school shootings. Even still, it's probably best practice to share an article in case this forum is where an individual gets this kind of news.

  • I just don't see how this isn't the process. If you understand what the dollars and cents mean then it's still just adding 1. I was also a cashier for years and never ever saw this be an issue. I met or trained dozens if not hundreds of cashiers and this was never such a problem that couldn't be learned. If you can be trusted to handle cash you should be able to handle adding small values to a number

  • You seriously couldn't be bothered to add 1 in your head? Honestly, that is terrifying. It also makes it so you have less work overall. Handing a $10 is much easier than handing a $5 and 4 $1s.

    Why is it so hard to see post on mastodon on kbin ? Can anyone see this out in the threadiverse?

    Jump

  • I'll look more into that. Thanks for the info.

    Jump

  • I ask that you please don't spread use of the term threadiverse. I don't want Zuckerberg to get any credit for what has been done through the fediverse

  • whats the cheapest legal way to dispose of my dead body so i can stick it to the funeral industry?

    Jump

  • And then the state foots the bill....providing money to the company you are angriest at. That doesn't work for OP's scenario

  • whats the cheapest legal way to dispose of my dead body so i can stick it to the funeral industry?

    Jump

  • That doesn't stick it to the industry though. Still gets them paid. It's not about saving the money from what I can tell

  • Do you believe in reincarnation?

    Jump

  • With that in mind, you have a good point. Hard to imagine.

  • Do you believe in reincarnation?

    Jump

  • There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1, but none of them are 2. Infinite time does not mean that everything (including your scenario) is going to happen.

  • How did you survive living in a college dorm with another person? What did you bring with yourself?

    Jump

  • Bring only the items you cannot live without until your first break home. In the US, that is typically Thanksgiving or Winter break after the first semester.

    Don't bring a printer, a radio, or routers. If you have no desire to socialize with others, you may want to consider an apartment off campus.

  • Fish and Chips

    Jump

  • Portree! Yes. When we were at about the position where this photo was taken, we both said it looked awfully familiar. It's a very common place for pictures to be taken. I see it every couple months and it's exactly as I remember it. Now that I've told you this, you will see it everywhere too!!

  • Fish and Chips

    Jump

  • Isle of Skye, Scotland. Can't remember the town name, but a beautiful little place on the east coast, if I recall correctly. The line for fish and chips down there was quite a wait, but worth the experience.
