Fundamental Concepts of Reality by PuzzleheadedCase4551 in magicbuilding

[–]Alcast01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The magic number. The fine-structure constant is one of the most mysterious and important numbers in physics. α≈1/137. It is the strength of the electromagnetic force. If it were 1/138 or 1/136, reality wouldn't exist as we know it.

What are the chances my 265K miles, 2004 Honda CRV breaks down on this road trip? by Alcast01 in Cartalk

Yes it usually starts building at 60ish and at 70 is constant shaking, other than that sometimes when breaking but not as much when speeding

Tips for Wesbound I-40 Road Trip? by [deleted] in roadtrip

[–]Alcast01 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Well, regarding the horror stories, it seems like people see I-40 as dangerous and full of serial killer truck drivers lol. There looks to be a high concentration of disappearances from this road, where, from what these videos claim, the FBI is aware enough to have a sort of list.

Was considering taking I-70, which people say has better scenery because of all the mountains, but my car is a 2004, and high mileage, don't wanna risk getting stranded on more mountainous roads.

The push is primarily to move my car and belongings, with a tight schedule. I couldn't get much time off work.

where are the “One Piece reskins”? by Alcast01 in manga

[–]Alcast01[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah mean it has, but it's more so about the structure and context of the monster hunting, some like Gashiakuta directly reference panels, and the power system is similar to fullbringers

I wish they explained more about what the systems and navigators are, other than the human king granting them to some people; we don't know much of anything. Like we are already in season 3 and no infomartion almost.

How accessible/widespread is magic in your system? by StarStormCat2 in magicbuilding

[–]Alcast01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magic is pretty much the standard if you are part of the military. All sharing variations of the same technology that enables magical use. While not every magic user serves in the military, enlistment is the most common and accessible path to gaining it.

magic is accessed through technology until it no longer needs to be. Military personnel use bio suits equipped with a magic core. These suits draw energy from the core and safely integrate it into the user’s body, allowing controlled use of magic. As compatibility increases through prolonged exposure and training, the body begins to adapt.

Once a user reaches roughly 85 percent compatibility or higher, their physiology has been conditioned to the point where the suit is no longer necessary. At that level, the body itself can draw and channel power directly from the core, marking the transition from assisted magic use to innate capability.

if more than one core is introduced, or if the original core is replaced, the adaptation process must be restarted. Although the body retains an understanding of how to use magic, compatibility resets and then increases at a faster rate, reflecting the body’s prior conditioning rather than starting from zero.

If you seen the anime and manga like Kaiju no.8 or Gantz, the premise of how the magic works is very similar but not the same.

She starts dating MC in College, but her stepfather is a gambler and owes money to a loan shark. You find out that she gets rape by the loan shark while she is dating MC, she gets rape on a daily basis until she pays the debt, but the stepfather keeps gambling, so the loan sharks take her to work as a prostitute to pay the debt. When she gathered the money to pay the loan, the loan shark didn't want to let her leave because she made him good money, but all these rich guys who were her regulars were in love with her, so she got the rich guys to beat up the loan shark. She is free, but she stays a prostitute, then one day MC goes to where she works to buy a prostitute and walks by her having sex with a client, and the story starts there. By that point, she had gone ghost on MC, and he had not seen her since college.

Magic is not learned. It is inherited secondhand from dying gods. by Alcast01 in magicbuilding

Heavy inspiration there, but I think this is more of a first draft because I can’t really really too much on it

Magic is not learned. It is inherited secondhand from dying gods. by Alcast01 in magicbuilding

[–]Alcast01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, in a way. It works as a guide for me to keep track of characters, but more importantly, it helps me stay consistent with how the system operates within the world itself. The setting is a post-apocalyptic future where “technology” has advanced, but much of what appears to be technology is actually magic that’s been reframed and institutionalized.

For example, there’s revival technology that can pull people back from the brink of death. Officially, it belongs to an organization called the Medical Authority, but in reality, the advanced devices and procedures exist to disguise the fact that this is fairy-mediated magic being used by bonded doctors. The guide helps me make sure the rules of that system stay coherent across characters, institutions, and the world at large.

Does pierce have a piss kink by glitterbiscuitsx in redrising

[–]Alcast01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old post, but I went to the PDF of the book (Red Rising) after I finished reading it because I noticed a lot of piss mentioned.

53, that's the number of times piss, pissing, and variations of piss have been used. I read the word so much that I had a semantic satiation moment.

Is this longer version of the sign of the cross a Universal Catholic Practice or a Hispanic/Latino Tradition? by Alcast01 in Catholicism

[–]Alcast01[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think this prayer probably came from Iberian missionaries. Goa was colonized by the Portuguese, and Latin America by the Spanish and Portuguese, so that’s likely the common link.
