Reply to comment by Antique_Work_3852 in ELI5 why/how strong wind causes wildfires in Colorado by Antique_Work_3852
Campfires can blow embers into new areas that start a fire.
Or people who are burning rubbish on their property, etc
Discarded cigarettes butts
Sparks from machinery, trains breaking, etc
Electrical arcs (e.g. if a power line gets blown down or shorts out in strong winds)
Arson
If you have a bunch of flammable stuff in a pile and the ideal conditions for a fire to start and grow it doesn't take much
Edit to add: The lightening also doesn't need to be the typical lightening most people would associate with also having a thunderstorm attached to it. There's also "dry lightening" which doesn't need rain to happen. (I can't really ELI5 what causes dry lightening because I don't fully understand it myself)

Reply to comment by tranceformerfx777 in Beta Impressions: Blizzard Needs To Do The Right Thing & Delay Diablo 4 Until It's Ready by tranceformerfx777
Ok, I do gotta admit that the sorcerer was like 100x more powerful right off the bat than my barbarian was. Which felt very weird for a Diablo game

Reply to comment by Zealousideal-Alarm37 in If MRI Voxels are 1mm^3 how can MRIs identify something as thin as white matter? by Zealousideal-Alarm37
Dti does not measure axons.
It makes a model of white matter tracts based on the characteristics os the direction of diffusion. Like so many things MRI, it's a model, and an estimate of how large bundles of axons are organized and traverse through the WM.
If you wanna learn more I bet you can find some good videos on YouTube. :)

Reply to comment by dman2316 in ELI5: If benzodiazepines are CNS depressants, why is it so hard to die from a overdose of them alone? by psychrolute
I feel that way several times a week. I don't know why. It's really scary, and all I can do is just remind myself that the feeling will pass in an hour or so.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in [26M] [24F] she was only dating me for sex and I feel kinda disgusted by throwRA283108
No. She wouldn't have been.
You could have been Harry Fucking Styles with a PhD and she'd still want to be out there living an unattached life.
THIS. ISN'T. ABOUT. YOU.
Ps. I really have a ton of respect, honestly, for how she handled this whole thing, because holy heck if you telescoped your atttachement issues to her as much as you have here, she probably had a LOT of rightful concerns about how to enforce her boundaries.

No discount for paying in full. No interest for payments.

Reply to comment by NegativeAd1432 in Argument for Jacob Collier being one of the best musicians alive today by Drfauci594
Who else has got an audience to sing a three stave moving harmony in the middle of a show and then had that same audience sing the lead part over it and record it?
It said first to sing a Bach double concerto with a mandolin as the other, who else did it?
His harmonizer is the only one in the world so he co invented something

You got me actually laughing now. Okay you didn't read the article. It's an airponics farm where the plants roots are in a mesh inside of a tube.

Reply to comment by wildwestington in With age, every sport becomes an extreme sport by kattmaskinen
Off hand, I just know when I'm playing a really tight/close game like BBC2, my pulse is *not at a normal resting rate. Plus, staying at a constant "full-alert" is taxing itself.
It's not the same as actual, physical activity, but it certainly isn't restful. I guess it's a bit like driving through really busy roads all day; at some point, your brain goes mushy and you aren't at 100%. You've been sitting down, but you're still worn ragged.

Why do you feel the need to tell him? Is it a mutual term of your relationship that you guys don't watch porn? Almost everyone does. I don't see a reason to bring it up out of nowhere

Reply to AFCI Outlet Question by Norcine
If the test button doesn't trigger the AFCI then either you have have LINE and LOAD reversed, or the AFCI may be defective.
First thing to try is: disconnect the pigtail for the two efferent cables and then retest the AFCI with the TEST button and with your outlet tester.

Reply to comment by WakkamanWalker in Now that arresting presidents of the US is precedent, which crimes do you think Joe Biden will be arraigned on by right leaning district attorneys? by [deleted]
His own attorney already went to jail for participation in the crime Trump is being charged with.
Notice that the right wing narrative on this is all about how they'll retaliate, and how it's setting a standard for revenge. Not that he's actually innocent. Because of course he isn't, we have the records of him lying about the expenses he was using to pay off his prostitute.
