I've tried this out with some equipment I have on hand. Generally, yes, a household vacuum will work as a dust collector, but it's not as effective or convenient. For occasional use, it might be be...
The following is cross-posted from Stack Exchange for catching my eye: Schopenhauer already defined "intentionality". There is a part in his philosophy where he separates representation into subj...
I'm confused why you would bother buying grounding wire. Grounding wire is intended to only carry ground, which shouldn't ever be more than a few volts from other ground, like metal water pipes. ...
I think utilitarianism would provide an answer to this. Knowledge like mathematical theorems, scientific findings, folklore and literature poses hardly any threat to privacy while the benefit of f...
This question sounds basic, so I'll try to answer with a layperson in mind. "Learning" is a bit misleading, because programs do not currently learn the way humans do. They do not have a mind or ab...
Google Groups, which comes with all free Google accounts, can be used to set up a mailing list. It also integrates with the rest of Google resources, so for example you can share a calendar with a ...
I think there may be a common fallacy which I do not know if it has been given a name and a fully developed, possibly mathematical, argument. The idea is something like a basic fallacy of assuming...
I am still in the throes of learning this myself, but I would say logical empiricism comes close, or more broadly, analytic philosophy. It is common to hear nowadays that “logical positivism has b...
A philosophical zombie is an entity that is externally, behaviorally indistinguishable from some conscious entity, but lacks inner conscious experience, a.k.a. qualia. See articles “Zombies” and “...
Hello. I have seen that the post view isn't shown. But it would be very helpful to see post views. Please add it.
Presburger arithmetic is a theory that is decidable, but includes an infinite set of axioms. The interesting part is the 5th point from the Wikipedia formulation: (P(0) ∧ ∀x(P(x) → P(x + 1))) →...
To upgrade my base, I need to build 2 fluffy pal beds. However, in the tech tree, I can't find this building. Some techs are locked because "I haven't caught the right Pal yet", but which Pal do I...
After winning battles in the game you are presented with card options to add to your deck, some of which are new. Later you can craft cards, but only if they're "unlocked". Do I need to pick the ca...
I've been on thise site for a couple months now and what I like about it is that it's very flexible. I used to be on stack exchange and after seeing the difference between the two sites I can see w...
Backstory: I had an idea of someone who can generate powerful vibrations that can either be used to amplify physical attacks or fire these vibrations in a direct oscillating stream for ranged atta...
They would appear to unlock just by seeing them in the after match rewards.
If I remember correctly, the game saves at a position when you are just about to do the final mission and once you have finished it and watched the ending, it will take you back to that state, as i...
Unless you're strictly against nudity, and would avoid any game with it, I'd stop reading and rather enjoy the surprises the game throws at you. The game surprised me with their choices, and it was...
Gold Edition is the cheapest edition that includes the Atomic Pass (I.e. all the DLCs, including unreleased ones). Premium Edition works too but you're paying for soundtracks etc. extra fan materi...
Quite prevalent, but usually not something you'll be forced to stare at. But you definitely will see it. Combat is an integral part of the game, and combat does lead to gore in most every case. The...
In my story I had this idea where people are able to tap into this phenomenon of "inner capability" for a lack of better words that I dubbed meridian. Those who've unlocked meridian have their phys...
The game is surprisingly comfortable despite featuring drugs as a common theme. The extent of drug variety, however, is not very large. The game does not glorify drug use, except for a few minor i...
I have previously played GTA V, but have since realized I would likely not be able to replay that game due to how uncomfortable the use of drugs in that game would make me feel. Cyberpunk obviously...
How do we handle nudity, gore, drugs (alcohol, cigarettes, commonly illegal ones) etc? Do we ban the posting of screenshots that include this content? It would have to be based on the Code of ...
