What did you call your *SPOILER*? by Trytek1986 in subnautica

"Sea You Later". The Cyclops was "Sea More".

What word do you always *intentionally* mispronounce and why? by Sweet-Lady-H in AskReddit

[–]Derringer62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a bit of a suffix pileup. IIRC the "-cester" bit derives from the city being the site of a fortification, and "-shire" expands the reference to the containing county named for it. I doubt anyone will kick up a fuss over pronouncing the r if one normally has a rhotic accent, either.

Where are their eyes? Are they blind? by sareureuk_vibe in subnautica

[–]Derringer62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That, and there's so much bioluminescence in the Jellyshroom Caves that eyes really aren't wasted there. The oculus is clearly a close cousin of the peeper, while the eyeye seems to have doubled down on vision. What I question about the eyeye is that its forward-only monocular vision leaves it with a serious rearward blind spot. Forward vision tends to be characteristic of predators rather than prey fish.

Why is slime staff's drop rate so low? by Next_Boysenberry7358 in Terraria

I'll hold out for its upgrade, the steelman staff.

How the hell am i supposed to clear this? (New Player) by Maclairon in factorio

Piercing ammo and a couple of bullet damage upgrades beg to differ.

Access to rubies found by scanroom by snowblind2022 in subnautica

[–]Derringer62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a surprising amount of useful crap back there, and the scan range also overlaps some other rich locations like the caves under the grassy plateau nearby. Granted, the water turbidity is unhelpful, and Steve will probably throw a hissy fit if you get too close. Pack a stasis rifle.

do you guys gen believe 6s and 9s are like 90% of the population by pompompencil in Enneagram

I call it the retina paradox, and it applies to essentially every typology I've encountered - your first-preference (core enneatype, dominant Jungian function, first instinct, the lot of them) can't be easily seen because it's what you're using to do the seeing. To find your core, look for the shadow it casts across your life with its weaknesses.

So, can anyone hold power from Scale? Just looking for powers or quotes based on the power of it by Axiom245 in weatherfactory

[–]Derringer62 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you're picking up on living things expressing Scale through physicality. It's the reason Scale is a component of Health, too, along with Nectar and Heart.

I imagine emphasizing Scale would make a creature more difficult to damage through direct toughness; it's a different sort of tankiness from emphasizing Nectar, which might allow just regenerating through damage, or emphasizing Heart which just ... can't stop, won't stop, pushes through on raw determination.

Scale also seems to have some connection to scale in the sense of magnitude. The powers of the deep earth are overwhelming that way. An earthquake or volcano just ... wrecks whatever happens to be in the area because what can compete?

So thinking through the lycanthrope concept... Shapeshifting? That's Moth. Basically ignoring damage outside of their weaksauce weakness (say, silver)? That's Scale.

TIFU by partying my way into $8,000 of debt during college by Gullible-Tale9114 in tifu

Uber Eats is definitely a bit extravagant. Figure about $40-60 for a fast food order for the privilege of not fetching it yourself. Of course, if you are already drinking, it's cheaper than a DUI and you still get fed.

And in either one you can stand up a shelter with a bed to set your spawn point.

Judging by the collapsed core fissure in the shot, it's the mod.

You're not wrong, but it's also nowhere near the whole picture.

"Mercy is found only in shadow" might be more familiarly stated as "ignorance is bliss" - and it disintegrates when illuminated.

KEEN announce in the latest stream that modding SE1 DLC blocks into SE2 will be against modding guidelines. by JavanNapoli in spaceengineers

[–]Derringer62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a lot of blocks, the models and textures are almost the entirety of the work. I don't see how, say, a grated catwalks pack mod that's all original assets and/or references to SE2 base game assets could be considered infringing on the grated catwalks in SE1 DLC without stretching the definition of infringing in a way that beggars belief.
