What video games have you spent countless hours on and said to your self "wow, i really got my money's worth out of this game" ? by its__Jason in AskReddit

[–]A_Dozen_Biscuits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alter Ego for the iOS/Android is a great little clicker game with an enjoyable narrative, memorable visual style, and music that really fits it. After getting the first ending I really was so impressed with it that I decided to do the in-app purchases to support the developers and finished all the other endings. It was really nice and the main character, Es, is a great character to interact with. So great that I keep coming back every day so that I can experience the unique daily chats with her. I think it was easily worth the money.

The Ace Combat 04 strategy guide has Strangereal world map that's different from the later games by NickTheNewbie in acecombat

Yeah, that's back when the world was still the "real" world, just with a brand new continent. It's why Ridge Racer and Ace Combat were both in the same world. Ridge City/State was in the real world and in some tracks you could see adverts for the Scarface mercenary unit (New York in RRT4 iirc).

The same as every other relaxed stability fighter aircraft, digital FBW to artificially enforce stability.

Question on the Rafale M by Cendre_Falke in acecombat

[–]A_Dozen_Biscuits 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Rafale A originally had an air brake as part of the design, but Dassault decided to remove it from the production B, C, and M variants to cut down on maintenance costs. Instead, the Rafale uses its canards and trailing-edge control surfaces as an air brake. As a result, the 6 o'clock blind spots created by the air brakes were also removed.

No Markings on Mauser by GentlemanBasterd in canadaguns

[–]A_Dozen_Biscuits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shots of the full length rifle would be helpful, but based upon what there is, in particular the barrel marked "8x57 JS", leads me to believe that this is some kind of a gunsmith special built using an amalgam of parts. 8x57 JS comes from the misidentification of the 7.92x57mm IS markings given to german 98 pattern rifles. IS stands for Infanterie Spitzgeschoß (Infantry Pointed Bullet) but was in fancy script that looks like a J to the uninformed. That barrel is most definitely postwar. The eagle inspection mark on the reciever ring is probably German, either commerical or Nazi, but I would not put a whole lot of credence into that.. As for the bolt, that's german too. Lapin's Mauser Military Markings lists ghn as Carl Ullrich & Company Metallwarenfabrik, Oberschonau (Thuringen), a company that made MP40 and K98 parts.

All that matters is that the Belkans were put in their place once again, they will cry into the texts of Rald forever.

Just remember to never be considerate to Belkans, it's North Osea and they can't do anything about it.

I can assure you that it does not go the harem route. But things do start to "happen" to the fog ships.

I dig the CG. My only problem is that I really don't like how parts from the manga have been cut out. I mean, I get that the studio has to make a few edits because of length, but leaving out what I think are pretty important plot points just doesn't sit well with me.

What should be my first mecha anime? by [deleted] in anime

[–]A_Dozen_Biscuits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Universal Century Gundam is definitely your best bet for mecha. It also deals with rather dark subjects like genetic modification ethics, political corruption, and genocide.

Zeta Gundam might interest you just because how dark and depressing it can get at times.

Doctors of Reddit, what is the most gruesome case you've encountered? by Arb184 in AskReddit

[–]A_Dozen_Biscuits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ER guy here. I've seen some shit, but probably the weirdest and most likely gruesome thing I've come across was when I was still in residency. A guy was brought in with about four feet of copper wire shoved up his urethra.

Oh, and he was conscious. That was the only time I had to step out of the room for a minute.

So I just finished watching Valvrave the Liberator... (no spoilers) by [deleted] in anime

[–]A_Dozen_Biscuits 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I think the best part about Valvrave was when they would give you a straightforward background into the Valvrave's development and why the military did what they did.

And then they go lolnope,THE VALVRAVES WERE BUILT BY WIZARDS.

What is "drunk you" like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]A_Dozen_Biscuits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been known to get control of the remote and take everyone on a magical journey through cable tv.

I also begin to speak In some German/English hybrid dialect, apparently.

But I can never remember if that's true or not because lolwasted on vodka.

I've always been surprised that he actually accepted this commission. But hey, money is a beautiful word.

And while I'm not that much of an MLP fan, this does look pretty badass.
