I've heard people talk about how mechanical keyboards are better. But they seem to be much more expensive than regular ones ($100+). What is the benefit of using them over regular ones?
There is a common notion that bonds and stocks hedge each other: When business is not going well, companies borrow money to make up for sales and investments drying up, and government (especially K...
Oriented strand boards (OSB) are often sold with a blue dye on the edges: What is this? I'm assuming it's some kind of chemical protection. Does that mean that when you cut the board and leave a...
There are some acronyms related to home improvement that are very well known: OSB, MDF, PVC. Most people who know the material they refer to, know the acronym. In fact, I would guess that a lot of ...
My thoughts are already apparent in the question body, but I will also add this: It is inevitable that many new users will not bother to read the details of our style preferences. It is certainly ...
For sample questions I asked, I elected to avoid the question in the title. My reasoning: It is redundant because the tag is already there If you clicked on the tag, you would get a list of que...
not having a strict policy of "ask your question correctly or it gets closed" This doesn't work well in a Q&A format, as opposed to a more traditional threaded discussion. These sites and the...
Is there a way I can change the shader settings, but only for one world? When I change the settings in the pause menu, they get set for the whole game; all worlds and multiplayer is affected.
Does Cyberpunk feature intentional torture in any sense? Will the player ever witness any sort of harsh torture, be it physical or mental? Is the game designed such that the player themself will co...
How do I change the biome for a massive amount of blocks, possibly the entire world (existing generated chunks only)?
Asking for a list, with answers submitting entries for that list, seems cumbersome. But consider instead a community resource, like Languages & Linguistics does. The incubator has the Article...
Jon wrote Building a Lord of the Rings keyboard this week about getting a mechanical keyboard. I definitely commiserate with his membrane keyboard complaint: But then I discovered that the "A" k...
If they are acting rationally, it's not possible. It is only logical for them to monitor the progress of the situation that was bad enough to force them to move underground. Even if society was lar...
Turns out, there is a "Homing" button hidden in the settings menu. Click on the cog wheel in the left sidebar of the touch screen to go to the settings page: Once in the settings menu, there is...
Sharing information about invasive species is an important issue. I started my town's Invasive Species Committee, and have seen some of these challenges first hand. Lots of people are doing their...
Artificial Life, a community for "the cross-disciplinary study of life and its abstract processes, distinct from but cross-informed by the specific instance of life that is studied as Biology", was...
Existing communities that are different from standard Q&A There are already several Codidact communities that cater to art and have different rules than might be expected in a question and ans...
First, this scenario is highly implausible. Surely the people that went underground intended to pop up again once the war was over. That means they created some means to monitor the situation on ...
I have a website hosted in Amazon Web Services (AWS) that uses Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances behind an Elastic Load Balancer (ELB). The load balancer is the newer "application" type. I've...
Evidentially my site is working over IPv6 with just the ELB IPv6 enable and AAAA record. ELB listener configuration The load balancer does have configuration on how to route requests to EC2. Her...
Say I wanted to make a "time machine" using command blocks. I can use /time add to change the time and make things faster, but I don't know how to subtract time as a /time subtract command doesn't ...
Search engines don't use metrics published by Moz for ranking purposes directly. There is no guarantee that improving your domain authority, or any other metric published by third parties will hel...
One design I've found is a beam compass, which requires three components: Beam - some kind of straight stick Point holder - the part that holds a needle that will stay fixed at the centers of a...
The context window of various GPT-3 models is given as 4-16k tokens. One token corresponds to about 0.75 words of English text. However, if an average book is 64k words, the GPT-3's context is far ...
