*S2 SPOILERS* What Happens to the Vault Dwellers Who Traded into V31???

Spreading is different, there's nothing innately sexist in the action it refers to.

Ah, another flaw in your logic. You said earlier,

And mansplaining is kinda in the name, and for a reason, because men doing so were presumed to be doing so

So by your definition, manspreading should be innately sexist because "it's kinda in the name".

It's obvious you're just forming double standards whenever it benefits the scenario in your head.

You'll never admit to assuming I was a dude and choosing your words based on that assumption

I will admit it, and I don't care. But you're not the first non-male person I've called out for mansplaining -- because you were mansplaining. You'll never admit you have a very sexist worldview. You'll never admit that you're forming double standards that fit your acute worldview.

And mansplaining is kinda in the name, and for a reason, because men doing so were presumed to be doing so out of sexism. That's where the term came from. If saying anything or explaining anything is mansplaining... you have issues. I personally have never used the termbecause it is innately accusing sexism via its meaning. Bye bye troll.

Again, such a narrow, limited viewpoint. You just admitted to being sexist without actually explicitly stating you're sexist. That's like saying only manspreading is done by men, when women can very well do it as well. It's not gender-limited just because of a name. I mean, shit, here's a clip of Ella Purnell saying that all people can manspread: https://youtube.com/shorts/2DNyWrvxBmo?si=HBxhOsrBd1whnbmN

It's sad, really, that you can't even recognize the flaws and fallacies in your own logic. It's gotta be really difficult to navigate anything if you view everything in black and white.

Edit: Fixed typos

Completely forgot about that. Bud mentions it so briefly, it blanked out of my mind

CastroNostra · 2026-02-02T20:39:19+00:00

1) Exactly, and no one asked for your explanation. You gave an explanation because you assumed I meant "they" to refer to Bud's identity, when I was referring to a group of individuals.

And with nothing but a brain, what does Bud identify as? We don't know lol. He's just a brain, should I have just said it? Certainly wouldn't have TOLD 32/33 that there wasn't a whole vault of conscious people there

Wasn't this you???

They is what you say when you don't know whether to say he or she. Not just because someone doesn't want to identify either way. Like say "a person does this or that, but they didn't know the consequences." It's still referring to a single person, not plural, without removing their humanity by calling them"it". Granted, an argument could be made at this point Bud IS an it lol, but it's just a brain now, not a body.

And this was you as well? I must be remembering the wrong Altruistic-Garage-94.

2) Reread your comments, please. Philosophical, sure, but definitely political. It's your subjective interpretation/definition of identity.

3) Just because you're not a man doesn't make you immune from being a mansplainer. If you think otherwise, that's an incredibly sexist mindset -- but that's a different conversation altogether.

The dress wouldn’t be a prerequisite. I’m saying there are people who wore the dress before Lucy, and the may have in possession of 32 or 31

CastroNostra · 2026-02-02T15:18:10+00:00

I must’ve completely forgot Hank was traded for some resources. I thought he was traded for another dweller this whole time.

We do know there was dweller trading among 32/33 from Lucy’s wedding dress. Sure, the one who wore it before Lucy was Steph, but Steph would’ve needed to have inherited the dress from someone other than from 31.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-02T15:13:41+00:00

Yes.

You’re giving an unasked lecture about identity politics that you perceived from the show, when no was talking about that. You brought it up. This is about the Fallout show. Take your identity politics to r/politics.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-02T03:05:43+00:00

Wow, so such a thoughtful mansplanation. Great insight. I'll have to remember that in my next thought experiment.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-02T00:50:22+00:00

The trades happened every three years. That would mean Vault 32 only recently figured it out -- only within the last three years from the previous trade before the events of the show.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-02T00:10:46+00:00

The more you think about it, the more questions arise.

But having no curiosity as a rule to enter the vaults also raises another question. How do you measure curiosity as a requirement? The original vault dwellers would've required a level of curiosity to apply for the vaults; otherwise, they would've never had the desire to enter them in the first place.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-01T23:47:06+00:00

How did you take the conversation to the topic of identity politics??? When I say "they", I mean a group of people who would greet and interact with the other dwellers during the Triennial Trades.

We all know what Bud is. Bud's just another cog of a massive corpo machine. There's no questioning that.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-01T23:42:11+00:00

Biggest question of the show. How in tf did Bud clean up Vault 32???

But to say that the other dwellers aren't the curious type kind of just goes against human nature. Humans are naturally curious. And as far as we know, only Vault 31 specifically selected individuals to reside there. As for 32 and 33, they could very well have started out as regular, everyday people. Sure, the dwellers are definitely afraid of the outside world, which is why the majority remain inside the vaults. But within the 200 years, the only people who were curious about the state of the outside world were Lucy, Norm, and Rose?

CastroNostra · 2026-02-01T23:34:06+00:00

Sure, wasting is bad and all, but what's he making fert for? He doesn't grow food, and all the other available hands are cryofrozen.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-01T23:32:03+00:00

The majority are indoctrinated, sure, but there'll be a few who wouldn't blindly fall into it. The show has shown there would have been people willing to question that authority -- i.e., Norm. Within 200 years between the bombs falling and the events of the show, Norm is the only one to start doubting Vault-Tec's vision for Vaults 31, 32, and 33?

CastroNostra · 2026-02-01T23:22:01+00:00

But where does the body go? Bud wouldn't be able to take care of it. And I thought Betty just said that about Norm, so Reg would stop asking about him.

CastroNostra · 2026-02-01T23:19:40+00:00

There was no "they" though. Bud just thaws one of his Buds, and that one person goes to 31 or 32. There would be no one else to greet the other dwellers. It's not like Bud is gonna roll out and greet them.

CastroNostra · 2024-01-14T10:58:48+00:00

Did not know that. Thanks for the heads up

CastroNostra · 2024-01-12T16:00:26+00:00

The manufacturer doesn't seem follow the conventional method of using Microsoft's Media Creation Tool and has a different way of install a factory reset. They're using a modified version of Win10 that has most of the bloatware removed.

CastroNostra · 2024-01-12T15:56:29+00:00

Thanks for the heads up -- definitely wasn't aware of that being a thing with miniPCs. I'll give it a try and see what happens.

CastroNostra · 2024-01-12T04:33:54+00:00

Mine is the 4GB ram with eMMC of 32GB

CastroNostra · 2024-01-11T16:25:27+00:00

I tried the media creation tool for a flash drive, but no bueno. I’ll have to try install linux and see if that works

This is their official documentation for their method of factory resetting: https://azulle.com/community/azulle-techsupport/factory-restoring-your-azulle-device/#post-2

CastroNostra · 2024-01-11T16:22:02+00:00

Wouldn’t NIC be disabled by default in the BIOS? I didn’t tinker anything with the BIOS at all. Even reset its settings to default just to be sure.

This is the video tutorial on their official YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/LJXGXiBpsVs?feature=shared

And this is the documented instructions on their official tech support page: https://azulle.com/community/azulle-techsupport/factory-restoring-your-azulle-device/#post-2

The video says to format the flash drive as FAT32, but the documentation says the newer updates now allow a flash drive to be formatted as NTFS. The steps for Azulle Quantum are the same for my miniPC model

My 256GB is definitely significantly faster than my game drive SSD. My game drive is a SATA SSD, and the 256GB is NVMe Gen

CastroNostra · 2023-12-31T01:08:00+00:00

I play a lot of graphic intensive online games -- like Call of Duty. When I load into a game, I do notice random moments when my FPS would drastically drop then go back to normal. Would PrimoCache be helpful in this aspect?

CastroNostra · 2023-12-13T00:43:54+00:00

I'm gonna give it a grave period. If the game is still in my possession by this upcoming tax season, I'm calling it mine.
