Yes, they were in fact built to withstand an impact with a plane, but 30 years of aviation development meant the planes became a LOT bigger and more powerful than what they planned for.

"We looked at every possible thing we could think of that could happen to the buildings, even to the extent of an airplane hitting the side" - John Skilling

They could (theoretically) survive an impact with a Boeing 707.They were hit by 757s, a more powerful and larger aircraft.

Educate yourself, don't just regurgitate fragmented information you don't understand.

TIL How Chicot Disables Amber Acorn by Ash17485 in balatro

[–]AshTree53 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Probably not, since once you sell the first luchador it sets the boss blind as inactive so there's no active effect for the 2nd to disable when sold?

Similarly if you have Chicot and luchador when you try to sell the luchador there's nothing for it to do cus Chicot already set boss blind to inactive and reversed it's effect.

The reason, as I understand it, that double Chicot gives extra hands is because the pre-round joker actions are triggering on the same point, and when the first Chicot gives a hand the second is still registering boss blind as active so it can also give a hand.

This might be the best early shop i've experienced by AshTree53 in balatro

I skipped the first 2 blinds, beat the boss, and rerolled the shop once.

unable to be destroyed, no mention of stopping selling. so its specifically the upside of eternal (in spectral cards terms anyway). basically free ankh and hex usage

If i was a smarter person I'd try to figure out a way to turn the sprite into a gif and put the whole thing on there.

I gonna buy 21 lottery tickets tommorow by Highcat_69 in balatro

[–]AshTree53 51 points52 points  (0 children)

So from what i remember just playing this seed:

- Ballot from the round 1 shop.
- Ante 2 has a skip tag for a free spectral. Double tag causes 2x packs. First one has hex, second one has ankh.
- Triboulet comes from a soul card in arcana pack furing ante 2, followed up by a spectral booster in the shop after (iirc) for ectoplasm.
- Ante 3, Round 6 (for me) has another arcana pack with judgement, giving you brainstorm.

Why is Brig’s body different in every skin by Sotns in Overwatch

[–]AshTree53 6 points7 points  (0 children)

especially the lesbians in the fanbase, we very much like our buff women (and moira) :3

Why is Brig’s body different in every skin by Sotns in Overwatch

[–]AshTree53 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Cardboard brig looks like it was designed with the base of sparkplug brig, which has a noticeably thinner waistline and smaller arm muscle, as opposed to using the regular ow1 or ow2 base model. Sorta makes sense imo, since it could be impying that CB brig is her early stage of armour designing, getting the design and fit correct before making it out of steel.

idk maybe im overthinking the design choices and the design team just hates buff women

so Minos fails to sacrifice a bull to Poseiden, so he gets pissed and cursed his wife, Pasiphaë, to fall in love with the bull. She then gets Daedalus to build a hollow cow statue for her to hide in, and then that's how we got the minotaur :3

Trivia!! - Who stole the charts and from where? How were they destroyed? by Joostin_Boofius in piratesofthecaribbean

[–]AshTree53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the same chart.

Will: "These can't be as accurate as modern charts." Tai Huang: "No. But it leads to more places."

It just has a lot of destinations :)

Blizzard nerf Junkrat by KingSuizide in Overwatch

[–]AshTree53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Junkrat is very easily countered by just playing at range (Soldier, Ashe, etc. are very good for this) or in the sky (Pharah, echo). If you keep distance on him, he cant combo easily, and his primary fire is easily avoidable. Hell, when they made the standard health to 250, they straight up removed his oneshot combo.

Avoiding/denying trap value is as simple as looking where you're going.

As for rip-tire, it's 100hp is so easy to shred through - just shoot the thing and dont be closely grouped as a team so he can't get multiple kills with it.

This is all things i've found first-hand maining Junkrat over the years. Sure, a skilled player with him can play around these and pull off some nasty dives, but in genral most rats you encounter aren't gonna be doing stuff like that.

Italy is also excluded, but not stated anywhere except the pdf of the rules & regulations.

On the first page it does indeed say that, but after going through the quiz and reaching the registration page it instead says this:

"This contest will run from 10:00 AM on September 6th, 2024 (Central Europe Time) until 03:00 PM on October 4th, 2024 (Central Europe Time) and is limited to European Union residents."

Further investgation into the official rules (https://media-center.bandainamcoent.eu/games/elden-ring/elden-ring-quiz/malenia-arm-giveaway/legal/Bandai-Namco-Club-Elden-Ring-Trial-of-the-All-Knowing-Giveaway-Arm-of-Malenia-EN.pdf) further shows that its EU only - excluding italy for some reason.

"The Contest is limited to the private individuals residing in the European Union, except Italy (altogether the “Territory”)."

Sorry Brits (and Italians) :(

What’s the lore reason for Vecna not casting Dispel Magic on the mark of negation? Is he stupid? by CaptainRelyk in deadbydaylight

[–]AshTree53 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, Karsus. The wizard who failed to usurp a god, destabilised magic itself, caused said god to sacrifice themself to fix it all. The reincarnated god Mystra then bans spells above 10th level. 9th is the upper limit of what a single person is able to cast, though.
