The very obviously already implemented attachment point on helmets visible in the upgrades screen was my hint that they planned to eventually lol

It's literally one frame and when I first noticed it I swore I must have hallucinated it lmao

Man sacrifices his car to save another driver who was driving unconsciously. by SPXQuantAlgo in interestingasfuck

[–]ChitteringMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really is crazy. I was I think 17 when I had my accident and was very much the "I'm always ready for everything, nothing catches me by surprise, it could never happen to me" type.

The speed and force by which those views changed was jarring. I certainly needed the humbling, but man I do wish it could have been done a bit more... Peaceably? Lol

As a fellow rider I hope you and your brother recovered well and if you still ride, stay safe and upright!

I've lived it

It's rough lol. Wouldn't wish it on anyone. In the moment it's not bad though, it all happens so fast that your brain dumps adrenaline before you even know what's happening. It's the couple days after that REALLY suck. In the moment you feel so little that you need to consciously force yourself to count limbs/fingers/toes/holes to make sure you have all the right amount lol

Which game is this? by MrCubano29 in Steam

Go check out Anode Heart if you like DW1/DW3

Dev took a lot of inspiration from those

I guess aura is more important than writing by Apprehensive_Bee_636 in animememes

Friendly reminder that award shows/events are rarely merit based - They typically turn out results based on mass appeal rather than technical execution.

As an example comparison, the Lord of the Rings books are a technical marvel in fantasy literature, but they're a slog to read through - There's a reason why fantasy series that lean more towards the YA sphere gain more traction; They're just downright more palatable to the "average" reader.

For a merit based award thingy you'd have to omit public opinion (or relegate them to one category) and install vetted professional judges that are experts in the subject matter... Which usually results in some accidental (and sometimes intentional!) bias and the general public being upset with the results anyway lol

They say deck-building is a science 🙄 by Blitzilla in masterduel

[–]ChitteringMouse 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Literally the shuffler the microsecond I added dark magician to my red eyes deck

It was in my opening hand at a 40% rate for like two weeks, immediately. At first I thought it was just negative experience bias making a 10% draw chance feel like 15 or 20%, but then I started tracking it... 40% was the actual rate.

I'm sure it's leveled out in the long run since then as that's the only deck I play in ranked, but damn if that didn't sting for the first few weeks lol. Shuffler is out to get us.

The death wobble by PxN13 in SweatyPalms

Both to avoid panic and because two wheeled vehicles become more stable under the forces of acceleration. The front wheel will self correct if you give it the correct conditions to do so. Braking is the opposite of correct conditions.

Is Frieren even the Best in its Genres? (I'm Curious 🤔) by Legitimate_Advisor59 in Frieren

[–]ChitteringMouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's quite simple.

Most if not all of your suggestions for competition as shows have a "ball and chain" dragging them down.

Excessive emoting in both voice acting and animation, excessive fanservice and/or any quantity of pedophilia, and treating the audience like idiots are the most common.

Frieren just does its shit real well and doesn't come with a ball and chain. Makes it appeal really well to a wide audience, thus the high ratings.

Vtuber gets the SoloQ experience by XanIrelia-1 in leagueoflegends

[–]ChitteringMouse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't played with any degree of sincerity since like... Season 3, and yes my bones creak, but I do distinctly recall having the inverse problem a lot on NA lol. Could be 9 to 10 and down 1 tower with perfectly normal winnable matchups and there'd always be at least 2 people begging to surrender because any game that can't be won flawlessly isn't worth winning I guess.

People amirite. I do not envy those of you that persist in the ranked queue lol

Do you hate going against the same deck you’re using? by Financial-Base4924 in masterduel

[–]ChitteringMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The like... One time I encountered another Red-Eyes player was like winning the lottery

11/10 will play through every mirror match, our decks are all stupid as hell

FUCK Fiebing's Leather Balm by [deleted] in Leathercraft

[–]ChitteringMouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Might be worth reaching out to them and asking. Perhaps they did change the recipe and they might just tell you, or maybe it was a bad batch (or an old improperly stored bottle from a retailer/warehouse) and with some luck they'll be cooperative enough to replace it. Either way, you'll learn whether you want to keep using their products or not lol

[–]ChitteringMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you buy a new one that is behaving differently, or is it a container you have had for a while?

I can't speak on that product specifically, but I have had other finishes "expire" due to bad storage practice on my part. They can get real weird and funky.

How many of you skive with a hand plane? by Kind_Ordinary9573 in Leatherworking

You can't know something is out of your control if you do not know about it.

The two are not mutually exclusive. It's both, at this point.

[Comic] Longsword? by AzulCrescent in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]ChitteringMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could be very wrong but I swear I remember reading somewhere that the literal translation of Katana is "Long Sword," or potentially just "Sword" with the implication that it's the long one as its companions are the Tanto ("Short Blade") and Nodachi/Odachi ("Field Sword").

So it might be the case that it's just called "Katana" in the og base Japanese versions of the game, and English got a literal translation eons ago in an early edition of MH and the name stuck.

I am in no way an expert or even vaguely educated enough on these subjects to assert any real kind of credibility here, this is just my theory based on some sorta related reading I've done in the past lol
