2·1 month agoThe area I live in has flooded 3 times since it was first inhabited in in the 1780s. 1915, 2004, and Helene. Helene had about as much water as those previous two times combined.
“floods all the time” bite me
I live in the mountains. 2000 feet above sea level. The nearest river is a mile away and 40 feet of elevation below us. The river normally is 3 feet deep and 10 feet wide, when the area gets a lot of rain it can run about 8 feet deep, but no worries because that’s how high the bank is. When Helene hit, the flood waters rose up to our street.
The rivers in and around Asheville were rising a foot a minute in some places. Those waters also had cars, trucks, trailers and roofs in them.
Mud/landslides are awful, but so is flooding and it can happen a lot quicker then most people think. I’m very lucky to have escaped in time.
21·3 months agoI get the spirit here but not sure I agree that it MUST be true mathematically.
A full time job is 32+ hours a week. Even if I use the American 40, that’s still only 23% of the week not counting vacation or holiday.
Most people don’t get more then 8 hours off sleep a night. That’s 1/3 the day. 43% of the week for everything else.
That’s enough time for you to do something more than sleep or work. Then count in time for vacation and holiday and if you don’t sleep eight hours every night. And if you do stuff at work that isn’t necessarily in your job title.
Due to my meds I can only sleep 4-5 hours a night.
Just wait until you learn about friction!
I kept having to change meds because different ones didn’t work. One doc got me genetic testing which cost me about $15.

It was folic acid for me. Turns out me and my family don’t get the full affect of vitamins or medicines. After some genetic testing we are all taking it and are all feeling a lot better and our meds are actually working. It’s nuts how simple it was to turn us all around.

The news is you can play offline.
Most (free) software you can download an installer to a file then copy that file onto another machine. Which means being able to install without an Internet connection. I work with a bunch of expensive software, and while this is still true, if you are offline you have to fetch an activation code. I have discs for several assassin’s creed. I don’t remember if they needed Internet access to activate or not…
Yall must not work in manufacturing.
It has more efficient lossy compression then JPEG. It has more efficient lossless compression then PNG. More efficient compression then gif and supports animation like gif. It allows for more colors then any of those 3. You can have a single for extension for photos graphics, and animations and costs less storage and bandwidth saving money and making a better ui.
