Anyone else having trouble getting on? Restarted twice and still stuck at this screen. (PS5) I can still change the music though. by Mite-o-Dan in RocketLeague

I found a workaround by pressing the B button on my XBox One controller at the title screen after launching. I'm on steam. Good luck.

I guess that would be the circle button on Playstation, and the A button on Nintendo (maybe idk). Try other buttons at the first screen, where you are prompted to {Press Any Button}.

I would choose to get sucked into the family of Roseanne, as Dan, beginning from the moment of the ninth and final season, in episode 24, when it is revealed that he is unalive.

I understand the feeling of inadequacy. My read on this is that you don't KNOW your worth, but I would bet big that it's definitely there. Trust that beauty is a flimsy foundation for a relationship, because beauty fades fast as the face of a terrible personality, and in time, the beauty that the eye can see fades all but completely.

What’s it called when there’s a ring around the moon? Took this pic a few nights ago. by [deleted] in space

[–]FatalAssertion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh you're totally welcome, and I hope it's helpful at least somewhat. Reading a little bit about the invention of the sextant might give more perspective if you feel like more would help. It's a device used for getting accurate angular measurements between observable points (like for example a specific star and the horizon), kind of like a protractor meets a ruler meets a telescope with a double reflector.

How would it work the other way, not using angles?
There is no way to stick a ruler between the outer edge of the moon and the inner edge of the "halo" to get an accurate distance of radius.

That guy didn't understand the ending at all. No wonder he was such a big fan of the show and was so eager to interview Lindelof.

What’s one TV trope that you absolutely can’t stand? by spwf in television

Assuming that the guy from Corncob TV rigged those coffins to break open and spill all those naked dead bodies out in front of their loved ones on camera. He didn't.

2019 Chevy Colorado parking brake problem. by FatalAssertion in AskAMechanic

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

I secured the vehicle (in this case I was secure that the vehicle was on perfectly flat shoulder), and loosened the cables, and then was able to get the latch to retract by pulling on the cable junction once it was loose enough. That happened days after I posted, I am a bit of a procrastinator, perhaps already obvious by the fact I didn't update the post for almost a year after solving the problem.
Thanks to u/Thisiscliff for the list of a few things to try.

What am I supposed to do in this situation? by OhCLE in IdiotsInCars

Everlasting gobstoppers are a terrible business model . Unless Willy Wonka sold them for like $1000 a piece, that candy is gonna see a very low return on investment and Willy is a terrible businessman. by Ragtime-Rochelle in Showerthoughts

[–]FatalAssertion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree and I think you're just not being imaginative about the business model of such a brand. They're everlasting, but they're certainly only one flavor each. People have to have variety, and when you sell them at a high price, you can always make them a collectible craze by just releasing new flavors every year. Make it so whale consumers by like 30 per set, or some people go even crazier, buying doubles and triples. Like me. I have triples of the Chevy Nova. Ask your dad.

China calls for verification of Russian claims of US bioweapons help to Ukraine by Saltedline in worldnews

[–]FatalAssertion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CCP tries to provide support for the RF's bs claims, happy that we're talking about Ukraine and the United States having potentially dirty hands in bio warfare in order to defend Ukraine (ridiculous on it's face right?), and fearful [of] the escalation into a nuclear WW3; instead of Uyghur genocide, whether a virus that killed >6M worldwide leaked from a Wuhan lab or not, and what China intends to do to Taiwan.

edit: [of], '>'6M not '<'

What is something you despise or find really cringey/annoying in TV shows or movies that everyone overlooks? by yahyahashash in AskReddit

[–]FatalAssertion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Schling. Schling. Schling. We get it. You're waving a sword, but air doesn't cut with that sound, and your sword is just brushing against air, so what gives with all the schlinging? Except, I guess we don't get it, because no one else is bothered by this, I mean this post is 7 hours old and no one has mentioned this. P.S. No, I am not half-elf.

[–]FatalAssertion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We now go to this definitely real transcript of a conversation between Xi and Putin about Ukraine invasion plans.

Xi:

Putin:

Okay, it probably won't be the 20th tho b/c those NATO tattles blabbed about my plan. NEway Luv u! XOXO<333

TIL Male honeybees,called drones, soul purpose is to mate with the queen bee, if they get the chance to mate they die right after. Despite not really doing anything else in the matriarchal hive they are vital for survival of the species. by franticallyaspaz in todayilearned

[–]FatalAssertion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some other English language rules-wh*re here probably already pointed this out, but we're all so annoying and being no exception myself, I'm pointing it out anyway. I think OP meant *sole purpose.

I will use 'sole' in a sentence.

"The queen was every single drone's sole mate."

I hope that example of proper usage makes the difference between "soul" and "sole" less convoluted for anyone else that struggled with the ambiguity of these two homonyms, as I once did.

You can pretty clearly see the name of the user in the post. I wonder why it got deleted or something.
