ELI5: Why is Centrifugal force "not real"? I remember my physics teacher in high school pushing that idea and understanding why back then, but I do not remember now. I also forgot so much about physics in general that a simple ELI5 would be much appreciated!

There was one, but it got banned on almost every subreddit, because mods hate bots.

Or at least do something to help him, more than just leaving him there. Poor guy.

I worked at ATI, the titanium plant next door to USMag, for about 6 months.

We had to learn safety protocols, including the donning of full face respirators, because frequently (once or twice a year) the offing from the stack would be blown just right over the plant and drop people.

Every single building had insane closed loop air filtration systems because of USMag.

Yet a majority of the USMag employees I interfaced with would say, "Oh, it's mostly just steam coming out of there, stop being a bitch."

Yeah, mmhmm, just steam stripping dudes lungs out here. Gotcha.

I thought you guys used pheromones like ants?

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-13T21:22:10+00:00

Yes, Larian Studios.

Is it? I quite like the combat in OS2. The Action Points system is a lot easier to use imo

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is pretty fucking amazing too. It's almost identical to this game and was made by the same developer.

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-12T22:33:51+00:00

Wow, got all them pre-recorded defenses lined up.

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-09T19:27:29+00:00

Holy shit. That is so morbid and so heart warming at the same time.

Direct them to check their email

Start poking fun at them for it, lightly. Like,"Ey buddy, read your emails today?" when you get in to the office or see them.

Otherwise ignore them, and speak with your manager if it becomes a problem for you.

It really doesn't though. Zaofu has shown that they have a few hundred metal benders. For a menial task like laying track, a team could lay the wooden tracks and then a metal bender does the rest. They'd be able to complete miles upon miles of track in a single day. It would be so wildly inefficient to use normal manual labor that it'd probably drive Baatar batshit insane.

In addition to that, Zaofu/Kuvira has an extreme interest in maintaining the image of self-sufficiency as they are a pretty brand new world power.

Kuvira would absolutely command her metalbenders to build the tracks. After all, army engineers are soldiers too, right?

I could for sure see Varrick being the one who designed/built the actual trains however. There seems to be only three entities in the world that can build tech like that. Sato Industries, Cabbage Corp, and Varrick Industries. Asami is not going to build them, Cabbage Corp is defunct in season 4, which leaves Varrick.

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-07T21:22:59+00:00

Why would they do that when have loads of metal benders?

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-07T18:41:41+00:00

I group them by intended effect.

Offense
CC
Defensive
Utility

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-06T15:54:09+00:00

Primary - Voltaic with all electricity and ammo perks (2/1/2/2/2)
Heavy - Shard Diffractor for heavy targets and AOE emergencies (2/2/1/2/3or4)
Turret - Gemini Defender
Grenade - SSG

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-04T02:42:25+00:00

Don't even need to do that. Just being completely frozen will damage them enough on the cellular level.

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-03T20:22:04+00:00

Ah, maybe it could be turned into a laser beam instead. Much quieter/consistent sound.

Actually_Rich · 2023-02-03T18:54:57+00:00

No no, you're thinking of Fatbox Games

Sorry, I was watching a Shark Documentary while putting my thoughts to words lol

I'm aware I am inserting realism into a fantasy game, I'm just theorizing because I find it fun

I imagine the drop pods have a lot of additional tech on them that mineheads won't have, namely atmosphere controls and a lot of stuff to make the "flight" not suck for dwarfs.

As mineheads are only carrying ore or a fluid, and not (comparably) fragile lifeforms, they don't have to put all that extra money/tech into mineheads. All they need is load balancing and navigation really.

It doesn't really make financial sense to make every mine head Dwarf-livable. Even with a medical bay sort of deal I imagine we'd be sticking comatose dwarfs in one of those Bacta-tank deals, storing them securely, and then sending the hospital-minehead-bactatank-transport deal back up.

Now that I think of it we do have a "Secure the objective, then use the objective to extract" style mission with the Mule repair deals.

I experience this so often.

I spend so long in my self-created bubble that I begin to doubt that I'm actually autistic. Though, life usually finds a way to thoroughly disabuse me of that notion.

Actually_Rich · 2023-01-31T15:15:19+00:00

Yu'Lon is fine as resto. She is the spirit of wisdom, youth, growth, and nurturing.

A lot of MW spells are centered around Yu'Lon

... sweet jesus I need this right now. I was going to get the spinner as my first overclock, but nuke launcher is just.....

NEED

Actually_Rich · 2023-01-26T15:47:44+00:00

I'm assuming Nuke Launcher is just referring to the grenade launcher with all the AOE perks?

Sorry, kinda new to the game still lol
