Some newer (in the last 10 years) smoke detectors use an infrared sensor to detect fire as well as smoke, and it may be going haywire off a reflection of the sun, or intense heating of a spot within its detection area.
If you can, borrow a FLIR or infrared camera and check the area when the detector goes off.
If you post your model of smoke detector, it would be easier to tell if it has this feature.
Simple, if any religion was true and objectively based in reality, why the fuck do they need missionaries to spread it?
If any religion was true, it would have measurable, verifiable, and predictable traits that would be discovered in isolated societies. If all of mankind’s knowledge was erased, we would eventually rebuild our understandings of physics, biology, chemistry and mathematics as they are today. If all knowledge of religions were erased, we would never get the same religions back.
It’s really a shitty coping mechanism.
Objective reality doesn’t matter to you if you close your eyes, cover your ears and insist on living in a fantasy world.
Let’s put it this way, if I went around basing my entire understanding of reality on Greek gods, people would rightly think I was fucking nuts.
Do it with the bible though…
You’re only seeing the most outrageous edge cases. It’s a weird kind of survivorship bias.
Prom was kinda like graduation to me. It’s a school event, I mostly went because it was important to someone else, and it’s a very common and relatable event in American life. All in, it was a waste of 50 bucks and a few good hours of gaming/relaxing with my GF.
Boats still sink, planes and cars still crash. Fundamentally, transportation will fail. The question is are these failures within an acceptable rate due to unforseen issues, or is this a problem with the system that operates and profits off of these devices, letting safety slip to maximize profit?
Glad I’m far enough down this rabbit hole to get the reference.
You know who else atonally screams into the void…?
Make reimbursement for travel, lodging and food mandatory for insurance to pay out.
Watch 24hr waiting periods, unnecessary ultrasounds and selective state level healthcare bans lose a shit ton of funding and support.
I think the fairest criticism of libertarianism is “If men were angels, no government would be necessary”.
Like, I’m definitely level-headed and community aware enough to be a good libertarian, it’s all the other conceited assholes that need government to keep them from drinking and driving, shooting off fireworks in a field during a drought, feeding bears…etc etc.
Like this one. ^
Yeah, the “Boys” are 7 and 9 pounds, and my little lady is 11.
That’s a fair assessment. I can’t be around the bunnies all the time to train them. I’d send picture of my buns, but my partner has asked me to keep them off socials. They are two big red New Zealand mixes, and the third bun is a New Zealand/Flemish mix.
That was literally the republican response to their anti-vax movement. If Democrats hadn’t pushed for vaccines and social distancing, our base would have been more willing to take precautions and fewer people would have died.
These moyherfuckers knee-jerked so hard it launched them into a volcano.
That’s sweet. I’ve got 2 farm rescues that I “acquired” in a marriage, and 1 shelter rescue. Poor shelter bun had been there for 2 years.
Unfortunately, I can’t free-roam the bunnies. I’m actually allergic to them, so they have to be contained in a room to reduce dander in the house, but they have big x-pens instead of cages, and we let them out one at a time for about a half hour each night.
That’s fricken adorable. I have 3 right now and they ignore about 12 different commands.
Unlike a straitjacket, duct tape is one-size-fits-all.
My bunnies disagree with you.
It’s gotta be something they aren’t secretly doing already.
IT
Scripting menial tasks isn’t that hard. You can learn basic shit pretty easy. It’s a nice little dopamine hit when you get even something small that works. Make your computer work for you, not against you.
Also, Excel. If you have to use Excel at all in your job, learn the basics of formulas, formatting, and tables. It will take you maybe a day, and your excel shit will look 100x nicer, and work 100x better than whatever the fuck you are doing now.
In the US, you own the airspace up to the highest point of your property, including structures (and maybe trees). You also technically own your underground property to the center of the earth, but you may not have mineral rights to it.
