If you are ‘hoping’ to find one. The answer is more that you will find that in other individuals. Everywhere has some people that are personally averse to it. And it’s ok if you are too, you will have to advocate a bit, but most people will be accepting of it.

It sounds like more knowledge about virus and bacteria lives can help too. So you know how long a surface just has to be dry for before no virus and bacteria could have survived that long, and stuff like that. There are definitely surfaces and conditions that can increase their life spans, but the average life span without water and in the light, can be surprisingly short.

Definitely still a good idea to be careful, but very helpful to know more about how careful is the right amount of careful.

Also, viral/bacterial load is a huge factor. Like, you have to notice how despite how “gross” everything “should be” people still aren’t getting sick as often as you would expect. Just cuz some bacteria got somewhere, and is still alive, doesn’t automatically mean someone would get sick if they touched it, or brace yourself >!licked!< it. Most traces are going to be too little to make a difference against someone’s immune system. That of course goes out the window when there would be no defense, or very little defense. But even there, people on chemo are still exposed to “amounts” of bacteria and virus all the time and they only get sick sometimes despite being immunocompromised. There are alot of hurdles to getting sick even when a bunch of them are knocked down.

But yes, definitely try to be more careful than the average person is, but you don’t need to drive yourself crazy trying to get down to zero exposure.

Especially since that can lead to lowering the strength of your immune system long-term. And then you really will “have” to be careful. You don’t want to get there. Your immune system needs to keep taking it’s new tests every day in order to not fall behind the rest of the class. The more often you come in contact with an amount of bacteria or virus that doesn’t make you sick, the better. But it is of course a gamble, and more knowledge about what the actual risk is, is very helpful to win those gambles.

The chat bot just assumes it’s in the context of active war. Not that there isn’t even a war. There are no active combatants or “effectively surrendering” combatants. There is just people accused of a crime they may, or may not, be guilty of… and missiles.

Even if it was in the context of a war it would be a crime, but there isn’t even that context. It’s murder, arguably worse than war crime, it’s crime, and one of the worst crimes there is.

What does it say about stealing boats? Again without the context of being in a war…

Hehe, yeah. In the oldendays there was newspaper as an option for drying glass streak-free. It was never the best choice luckily, but it used to be prevalent. A squeegee was the old better solution, and a microfiber cloth is the new better solution.

Hehe, I just meant the collecting and redistributing knowledge part. Though yes, it also doesn’t qualify as knowledge, just a string of words that seems like it fits the occasion. Though… not to sell myself short, but not super far off.

If you are catching spray, try to increase the follow distance between you and the vehicle ahead. Same deal for rocks in places where that is a concern. It can be hard to leave a big gap, for fear that someone will come into that gap, but you can’t fix everyone, you can only fix you.

But, we also do have wipers for anything that happens during the current drive, not as good as not getting dirty in the first place, but better than staying dirty.

It was general advice for the situation, not specific to the image. There are many things that can cause it to be much more difficult to see when driving towards a low sun than it actually needs to be. It’s not a great situation at it’s best, but it shouldn’t be fully debilitating.

I am an autistic 41 year old man that lives in my parents basement. I just collect information and re-distribute it where it is needed.

I am basically the pre-cursor to an LLM, an LLM made of meat.

If you’ve ever watched or read anything with that “wise old hermit” that people line up to ask their philosophical questions to. That was an oldendays autistic person of the same type as me. Can’t function in society, but has no emotional thinking to cloud their logic. The thing is, no matter how logical the advice was, and how much it made sense in the moment, it may not have been applicable to normal people. Though I am of course aware of the nature and source of my clarity and try to keep it in mind when giving advice. Unlike the wise hermits of old.

Not to say I am always right, and not to say logic is always the correct solution. But it often is, and I often am.

Clean your windshield, inside and out, and polarized sunglasses, or sunglass clips for glasses. And make sure any level of astigmatism you may have is known and corrected for.

If after washing your windshield, it still scatters the incoming light too much, it is probably pitted. You may have to consider replacing it. It is part of maintaining a vehicle. It may suck to be surprised with an expense like that, but the surprise expense of an avoidable accident is much worse. And might not only be expensive.

Yeah, that’s fine, a bit outside the metaphor as there is no analog.

Basically just that socially enforced boundaries are a thing even in public spaces.

But we are allowed, and encouraged to read it, just not post. It is public.

I’m not sure the specific name of it. Something like “women only” but I’m not finding it in search. I browse lemmy by all, so it comes up every now and then for me.

We are fully allowed to read it, just don’t post. Reading it is very insightful.

Lets say you go to a public building and in that public building there is a room marked women only, lets say in that room are some toilets, would you go in that room? Since it’s a public space in the same building as all the other public space, the only difference is that portion of the space is understood to be only for women, or those that identify as women.

You may stumble in accidentally, and you will be gently corrected, but if you keep stumbling in, it’s gonna start to seem weird, and the corrections will get less gentle.

The worst part is, if the sign only said the instant death part, it would be a worse deterrent. Like, despite how funny it is to also have a fine, it’s a much more useful sign like this.

I don’t know about the current state of wired VR for Linux.

You are mostly stuck with ALVR for wireless and a few other options like that. Though if you like Linux, ALVR is basically the Linux of wireless VR anyway. You can get it working well if you really like spending time in settings menus instead of playing games, or copying someone else’s pre-configured settings for similar hardware/networking gear/setup.

But there is a chance SteamVR/Steam link will get a decent push for Linux around the time of the Steam Frame(deckard) launch.

You can make a mesh mask out of hi-vis reflective material. So people can see you but anything that relies on shining light at you to get a clear picture will just blow out and be pure “white” to Its optics.

I think if I could hear the jingle it would be separated like:

It’s the most wonderful time

of the year

Just given where the breaks are in the jingle.

I don’t know the name of the meme, but the person is Drew Scanlon.

Yeah.
