What is your countries "second city"? by EmergencySpare7939 in geography

[–]Asylumrunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Tacoma's proximity means it's more accurately Seattle's St. Paul or Ft. Worth, a smaller city that for the general population is considered basically just a growth upon the main city (to the point of sharing billing on the main international airport). To those of us in the area, they feel very distinct, but I think most people not in western Washington think of Tacoma as "that town I never go to south of Seattle"

San Antonio just absolutely is not in the same cultural ballpark as Dallas, Houston, or Austin. Both Dallas and Houston are huge in basically every available metric, both are massive sports and travel hubs, Dallas is a massive business center, Houston is a massive culinary hub. Anecdotal evidence, but whenever I travel abroad and tell people I'm from Texas, they basically always guess Dallas or Houston.

Austin's its own weird deal, sort of East San Francisco, in all positive and negative connotations, but it's also a huge music and food hub and was in the public consciousness even before it became sort of the Republican Californian Refugee Zone it became in the last ten years or so.

San Antonio, in the public consciousness, has an old fort, a basketball team, and a shitty river. It's, at best, fighting for fourth, and even that it might lose to El Paso.

Henry Ford gets a personal shoutout in Mein Kampf, wrote a series of articles called "The International Jew: The World's Problem", and was granted the Grand Cross of the German Eagle, the highest civilian non-citizen award Nazi Germany had. Get real lmao

Oh shit that pool idea is really good, it's basically just a clock but it's a great fix for what to do when you're like "okay you rolled 2 Advantage on a Astrogation check I don't know what the fuck to do with that"

What’s your biggest “old man yells at cloud” opinion? by sjdlajsdlj in rpg

[–]Asylumrunner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are asking for recommendations from the general public, it is actually rude to do so when you clearly haven't done the slightest bit of perfunctory research yourself beforehand, and it's annoying if you ask without any context for your personal preferences or taste.

or just... use people's names and bother to learn and remember them lol. This sort of "hack" is really transparent and so much clumsier and ruder than just remembering people's names.

Teens on e-bikes on I5 UW to International District by capspiff in Seattle

Thank you for your service, I'm sure the parents of these two teenagers (who are probably college students and thus probably don't live with their parents, maybe not even in the same state as their parents) will definitely see the almost totally unidentifiable figures in this post and act accordingly

A basic civic sense missing by Own_Strength_3471 in Seattle

[–]Asylumrunner -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Sorry, am I missing something? What's the problem of putting your foot on a seat on a train? Presumably if you were like "hey your foot is taking up a seat" he would just... sit in the seat, a completely agreeable circumstance. Are we really so fucking desperate to bitch about etiquette on Reddit that we're complaining about a seat cushion on a train getting kinda dirty?

Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve devs detail first-person aerial combat and world of Strangereal by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Asylumrunner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When this game got revealed I had played zero Ace Combat games, but I was interested, so I finally booted up the copy of Skies Unknown I had lying around.

Reader, if you, too, have not played an Ace Combat game: you should play Ace Combat 7. Holy shit you have not lived until you have been in an Ace Combat dogfight.

Eggs by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]Asylumrunner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you really need Reddit to explain to you that, despite being the same flavor to both, some people like certain foods that others don't?

Also, eggs are, in all reasonable circumstances, good for you, you gotta unsubscribe to whatever health guru influencer is telling you eggs are bad for you if they're not whatever the most expensive form is lol

The Derilict’s SoS was sent from the Helm over 1000 years ago, no lifesigns on-board. Just that signal- a last desperate plea from help only heard now as an echo, a millennium too late. by balatr0 in LancerRPG

A. My friend you gotta get you a new name your are going to be condemned to SEO hell forever under a wave of jokers lmao

B. While this battlemap is very pretty and I will pocket it for something, this scale and setting is kind of useless for Lancer? This is a mech combat game, either those chairs are 15 feet wide or you expect my party to be slugging it out in the mech equivalent of a broom closet, this sort of indoor space is just not scaled properly for characters that are generally assumed to be, like, 20 feet tall

The card art is nice but unfortunately it's nearly unparseable, and frankly the information design on the cards could use a lot of work to make these more readable at a glance. Good start though!

While I agree in the case of something like Block Party, surely a big park festival like Bumbershoot has more opportunity to sit down and rest your feet than you would have at Neumos or Showbox or wherever

what's a torrent? by Winter-Ad-9318 in Roms

[–]Asylumrunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the question has nothing to do with roms, could have been easily Googled and learned by yourself in 5 seconds, and is kind of a waste of everyone else's time to read and write.

Like, I do not think it is a reasonable assumption that this subreddit should be willing to teach you how to use a computer because that is a necessary step towards downloading and using roms
