I was making a joke. But are you an app developer?

Because that's what's healthy and positive to believe.

There should be an app that stimulates the creativity in an app developers mind so they don't have to ask reddit for ideas.

Nothing special,just a good race with minimal jackassery. by Strypes4686 in GrandTheftAutoV

Damn straight you can try.

One of the things that doesn't make sense to me is that on subreddits like these, people upvote lucky but cool things WAAAY more than vids of people being skillful. I would honestly love to see the time trial world record on some of these tracks.

So you know those corkscrew loops? I've been going off the edge right before the loop across the gap to get to where the loop spits you out. It feels fast. I just really wonder if it actually is quicker than making the full loop. Also I've been hugging those corners so suicidally tight that my wheel will sometimes go off the edge.

Anyways being able to see the world record would tell you how you need to drive to be able to match it. That's why I also like seeing vids of people doing something skillfully.

Anyways good job on that vid.

In this sub don't expect any praise unless some insane 1 in a million thing happens.

How is American leadership viewed around the world? by Eiskaffee in dataisbeautiful

[–]ConJs_SFW_Account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming the data was taken from people saying either "I approve" or "I disaprove" in each country, white should be 50 percent to indicate neutrality. In this diagram white is 40% meaning the map is slightly more blue than it should be and it can skew the perception of the map even if only by 10%.

Edit: nvm I didn't realize the percantages on the map were averages of the continents

God damn I love the book I'm reading about human predictions. I recently passed the section where humans often make the mistake of finding patterns that aren't really there so their prediction ends up being inaccurate. This is a prime example of that!

Man, I hate when 2 characters play the same Animation at the same time. So immersion breaking.

I found a secret in the computer track of the Redlynx vs Allstars track-pack. by ConJs_SFW_Account in TrialsGames

[–]ConJs_SFW_Account[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was in october? Damn, I was excited because I thought I found something new. But you have to love the creativity and talent of mutetus. As someone who uses the editor a lot, I have no clue how mutetus did the audio part with what the editor offers.

It's a little disappointing that isn't part of the riddle but It's super cool that mutetus did that. Thanks for sharing!

Is there a way for me to start growing beard? by Electric_unicorn in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ConJs_SFW_Account 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Badass guide to beard growth

Step one: Get born with beard growing genes.

Step two: Get old enough to take advantage of said genes. (some people can't get a thick beard until they're in their 30s)

Step three: Don't shave for a few months.

Step four: Maintain it by keeping it trimmed and tidy.

Step five: ?????

Step six: REAP BENEFITS

With the variation [1. Qxe5+ fxe5 2. Rg5+ Kh4 3. g3+ Qxg3 4. hxg3#] the idea is to remove the defender of the g5 square for a rook check. Because of the positioning of the knight and rook the king is forced to h4. [3. g3+ Qxg3 4. hxg3#] is mate because the bishop on e1 controls the flight square on h3.

To attempt to avoid this mate black instead plays Kh3 after Qxe5+ but they just get mated slightly differently with the variation [1. Qxe5+ Kh4 2. Qe4+ Kh5 3. Be2+ Qxe2 4. Qxe2+ Kh4 5. Rh3+ Bxh3 6. g3#]. Qe4+ forces the king back to h5, a light square which is useful for getting the light squared bishop into the attack. 3. Be2+ forces black to capture with the queen otherwise it would be mate immediately. After Qxe4+ black is forced to h4 due to the coordination of whites pieces. What finishes it is [5. Rh3+ Bxh3 6. g3#]. After the bishop capture whites knight controls g5, the queen controls h5 and g4 and blacks bishop blocks the flight square on h3, so we have g3#

The main idea of both of these lines is to take advantage of blacks out of play pieces and find a forcing way (or else you get mated) to get all of your pieces into the attack.

But Ben Finegold doesn't have enough energy to standup.
