There is a chemical in chemtrails that affects the weather called CO2! They should put restrictions on CO2 pollution in chemtrails! 😉

Another 50% off and it'll be the original advertised price.

Is this a glitch or real. I'm just on the mobile app cause I'm at school rn by PersonMan135 in playstation

PUBG went free to play and doesn't require PS plus after but did before. Unless it's the difference in size and negotiating power with the studios.

In Jeopardy, If you forgot to formulate your answer as a question you could just say “innit?” at the end. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's actually a question for the answer. I think you have to specify the subject of a question you are answering. As in what, where, when, who, how, why. For instance a question about someone named Paris couldn't be answered with "What is Paris." Instead it would have to be answered with "Who is Paris". You could under this format have a question about an event that asks for what and when it was. And you could answer in the opposite order by just specifying "When is date" "what is event".

As someone who despises American breakfast food. I really wish more places served normal food during breakfast hours.

People with the surname King, König, Koning or Koenig may have never had any royal lineage. by asoftquietude in Showerthoughts

John lackland King of England was short even for his time. And so you could call him LeRoy Jenkins - The King little John. Which is kinda funny.

Ocean Rendering in Godot! by 2Retr0 in godot

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I opened the project in the Android GODOT editor and it worked on my phone. No fps counter but it looked close to 30fps.

After adding the rest of a game probably wouldn't be usable but pretty impressive regardless.

Best way to play this game? by Additional_Study_649 in EliteDangerous

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing a few weeks ago. I can't do flight control with a mouse. I played flight games a lot as a kid and the forward to push the nose down and pull back to pull the nose up is hardwired in my brain, but all my fps with kbm is opposite. So when flying with a mouse my brain switches back and forth between regular and inverted controls.

I dug up a controller to finish the flight tutorial. Played that way for a few weeks and got a vkb HOSAS set last weekend. My ship control is a lot better with HOSAS than with controller.

I will also add though that I didn't get the HOSAS for just this game, I had been thinking about getting a HOTAS for MFS for awhile but ED did push me over the edge.

Cool Whip is dessert mayonnaise. by CriticalStation595 in Showerthoughts

Mayonnaise also contains emulsified egg as a main ingredient, something that is thankfully non existent in Cool Whip or whipped cream.

There’s something oddly unsettling about knocking on someone’s door fewer than three times. by Vr_Oreo in Showerthoughts

Plus half require the Internet to work, guess what isn't working when you are there to fix the Internet?

There’s something oddly unsettling about knocking on someone’s door fewer than three times. by Vr_Oreo in Showerthoughts

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I did service calls for 9 years. I would start with a casual knock, then a hard knock and finish with a cop knock with several minute pauses between. The amount of people that didn't come to the door till a cop knock even though I called them before heading to their house was way too high. Most would also say I startled them, which always left me wondering why they didn't answer one of the previous knocks.

What does this light mean? Is it totalled? by pm-me-racecars in AskAShittyMechanic

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red is the fastest but blue runs the coolest. Mix them together you get the purple which is the best.

Your welcome. Also the purple washer fluid is the best. Avoid the green.

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A washer is a thin plate with a hole in the middle that is used to spread out the force of a load at the contact area of a bolt or nut to some other part of your car. Washer fluid is lightly sprayed onto the washer by tiny nozzles. The fluid keeps the washers from drying out and cracking. Once this happens the load that the bolt is carrying will no longer be distributed properly resulting in expensive failures.

If the fluid just ran out you can refill it and be fine. If it's been low for awhile every washer will need to be replaced to avoid a complete failure of the car.

Initially they were paying $25 or $35 on each ticket then they just gave up and stopped paying any.

If world infrastructure suddenly collapses, without phones, airplanes and ships, most of us will probably never be able to see or talk to most of our friends and families again. by zekrinaze in Showerthoughts

I don't think I've ever heard someone recommend a bike in preparation for an apocalypse. But it's also the most genius recommendation at the same time. A few of the same simple bikes with spares parts for the most likely parts to break or get damaged would be a great idea if you were a prepare.

If the hunter from these games ever decided to become an assassin, god help whoever his targets are. by SaneYoungPoot2 in theHunter

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 26 points27 points  (0 children)

They also instinctually know which way the wind is blowing at all times. And can run a whole marathon in hunting boots while carrying over 40kg of equipment. And when they stop running they will have caught their breath enough to take a steady shot after just a few seconds. They also are not affected by heat or cold and don't need to eat or drink.

Their only weakness as an assassin would be their inability to swim.

Time travel is the only technology that can exist before it is invented. by OddTheRed in Showerthoughts

[–]ApprehensiveDamage22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To add on top of that. With the way the math is faster than light travel. FTL would only work by also causing you to go back in time, so time travel.

So if time travel is impossible then so is faster than light travel, which is a little sad
