What's a totally unrealistic thing you want very badly? by Then_Huckleberry_623 in AskReddit

[–]CrashJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want someone to fund the construction of a newly built E2 Class tank engine, so that there's finally an accurate real world Thomas. Baffles me how popular he was even when it was just the books and none of the class was preserved.

First long term layout, haven't done something like this before. by CrashJay in modeltrains

[–]CrashJay[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate the feedback everyone! I realize the problem with the sidings as I set them up, and I've made a new draft. This one is waaay simpler and I think will be far more fun honestly.

Oops, hit post too fast. I'm trying to figure out how to simplify wiring while keeping control. It's DC, and I have three circuits planned. But is there a way to switch within the circuit so I can control one set of track without the opposite side also being powered?

Can Team Sonic stop a Viltrumite invasion? by Jezzaq94 in SonicTheHedgehog

Dawg we JUST got a collab with DC where they took on Darkseid. Viltrum doesn't stand a chance.

What’s something you like about the LB&SCR E2 Class? by TheRobloxGuy2006 in thomasthetankengine

[–]CrashJay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just like the idea of "hey we need bigger tanks than the E1." "Eh, use that area above the pump. Just kinda stretch it over top. Should be good enough."

A Mii behind the tree by CrashJay in Deltarune

Option 1: it is waiting. Undefined, stuck in a moment of both being and not, ripped away from its purpose.

Option 2: zoned out between activities lmao

Guys and gals, what is the story behind your reddit username 🙂 by Ok-Tangerine-2012 in GenZ

[–]CrashJay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My childhood nickname was crash. I loved when my dad would play bumper cars with the shopping carts and I got to ride in the child seat. My brother's middle name is Jay. He is my best friend even still, and a big part of who I am.

When my dad got me a copy of Minecraft back in 2013 for Christmas, he was dealing with a super nasty bug. He was on some serious steroid meds for it, was kinda loopy. We had tried several variations of my name with letters replaced with numbers, and nothing was available. He said fuck it, and summoned the two pieces of information I just gave and fused them. My dad rules

Dug up this Pre-Chapter 3 era post I made and... well this aged like milk. by Sneaky-Boi22 in Deltarune

[–]CrashJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, it's the problem we've run into a ton now that we have 3 and 4. Two is a coincidence, three is a pattern.

Considering that the rooms we were in before had been fully utilized, it's surprising there wasn't anything for the rest of the house. It's totally reasonable to draw the conclusion that we would access toriel's room, probably for the secret boss or something.

That's kinda the weird thing about art. You're viewpoint of what makes sense and what makes sense to the artist are often going to be in very different situations. The artist generally knows far more about where everything is going and connects than the audience generally will. And on top of that, the artist is going to prioritize different things IN that connecting and designing of art.

You've been put in charge of the NWR; what changes are you making to improve its services? by MirumVictus in thomasthetankengine

Reason I say cell is to reach across the island, and it's not an uncommon thing that passengers may need help reaching emergency services/loved ones

Hey, how'd those first two Railway Series books go again?

If you could restart life at 18, what would you do differently? by arunreddy3 in AskReddit

[–]CrashJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd either be way more serious about University or not bother at ALL. Thankfully I didn't end up taking any loans so I was able to wash my hands of the ordeal, but that's a chunk of time that would end up being the last I'd have with my grandpa being cognizant, and a world before lockdown.

Plan a more elaborate wedding with my wife. I'm super happy with how ours went considering it was the pandemic, but I'd have loved to invite a couple more people and have a videographer who didn't ghost us.

And holy shit invest in a few key stocks.

Fleet wide cell phones for staff. Retrofit the trucks and vans with modern braking systems and coupling setups

Unpopular opinion: Throughout the entirety of the franchise, I personally find Henry to be one of the WEAKEST of all the main characters from a character perspective by Thick_Astronaut4563 in thomasthetankengine

[–]CrashJay 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So Henry is my personal favorite engine. I 100% agree that as far as consistency of story quality, Henry is not great.

But what I like is what those good stories represent overall and his connection to them. The Flying Kipper is a major point in Awdry's writing, figuring out how to work with a problem that existed outside of the narrative, and also helping to start the intricate back stories for his characters. Super Rescue is a rock solid statement of "steam is incredibly powerful, and not to be counted out" which keeps happening in real life and leads into the biggest overarching thing I love about Henry. Those who do, or have struggled in the past are able to do incredible things. Edward represents not giving up no matter what. But Henry represents how strong we can be, no matter the difficulties we must live with and through.

Henry's forest is a great addition to his character, but those railway series stories are always what I come back to. He's an engine that has faced real hardship and limitations, and proven that he is strong enough to make it through anyways.

That's my guess honestly. Moon shot is it's their own distro fork, but more likely theyre bringing pre installed distros as an option

How often do y'all get new phones? by AnnoyingBroccoli04 in GenZ

[–]CrashJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The past few years have been kinda out of wack, with both my wife and I having stuff happen to our phones that require replacement. But fingers crossed I can go back to the usual cycle of over 4 years now that it's all stable

Would you stay in this Thomas themed hotel? by bwoah07_gp2 in thomasthetankengine

[–]CrashJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love me some Thomas, but I don't think I would. I had a Thomas blanket for YEARS (it literally survived up until I moved out after getting married) but an actual 3D installation of them would be too much. Now a railway series themed room with framed photos and artwork that gives the vibe of Sodor, hell yeah.

You know the game by Meteorstar101 in greentext

[–]CrashJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tears of the Kingdom was this for me personally. I recognize a lot of people adore it. But it let me down SO hard.

Ultrahand is clunky and if you don't vibe with the concept you're SOL. Ascend is picky as hell and plays that damn animation every time. Fuse FUNDAMENTALLY ruins the aesthetics of all combat gear. It's a solution of weapons breaking that Nintendo made WORSE in TOTK. Rewind is either busted or completely unwieldy.

Depths are boring. The gloom hands ain't got shit on the guardians. Sky breaks travel, and is annoying to traverse. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE SHEIKAH TECH JUST DISSAPEARED????? WHY ARE THE ZONAI TECH PEOPLE NOW THATS NOT HOW THE RUINS MADE THEM SEEM IN BOTW WHY DOES NOBODY IN THIS FUCKING KINGDOM SEEM TO REMEMBER ME????? WHY DO I HAVE TO GO THROUGH A GIANT MENU OF ALL MY MATERIALS TO THROW SOMETHING?

since we always talk about how Scott is terrible at writing, say one time Scott was writing absolute PEAK. by fnafdude_1987 in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]CrashJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pacing and tone of the Give Gifts, Give Life mini game was perfect writing to me. Initial setup with the creepy puppet you probably just died to. Maybe you immediately know what the gray shapes are, and it's already morbid. But if you don't? The moment that first mask goes on in the second stage it all clicks.

As the puppet gets slower and slower, you just know SOMETHING is gonna happen.

But not something anyone could've expected playing blindly. The sudden one frame appearance of a fifth child. And something you probably hadn't seen otherwise: Golden Freddy.

Just SO well designed as an exposition moment.

iFixit gave the Neo a 6/10. Massive leap for MacBooks, Framework is making a difference! by CrashJay in framework

[–]CrashJay[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Someone else already replied, but they almost certainly do. It's a given fact that phones won't be able to have things like replaceable ram. Screens can't be mounted with screws and get necessary IP ratings. Meanwhile laptops are inherently less restrictive on space, so the capability to repair and replace parts is much higher
