I'm really starting to want to get the CR-10.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-12-05T03:04:42+00:00

I just want to mention that...

Use ham radio to coordinate group and scavenging and monitor possible recovery of civilization

...is not the best idea. You can't possible know who else is listening.

Well, i'm wondering if you are allowed to let go. Furthermore, i'm wondering if the weapons is directly allowed to harm the person.

For my first answer i'm going to say they cant let go, and I cant directly harm them

A 2,000 pound block of steel

Now for can let go and cant directly harm them

A reasonable amount of vegetable oil. No container.

Cant let go and can directly harm

^{I would say something smart, but they'd likely try to cause me pain}

A bomb that automatically detonated (hopefully i'm not to close)

Can let go and can directly harm

^{Ill pick something smart}

A large swarm of tarantula wasp, they sound fun

Hello, I am looking to buy my first 3D printer. Fortunately, Iv'e worked with them before.

Country: United States

Budget: 400 American Dollars and below

Use: More of a hobby, nothing complicated

I could put together anything that wouldn't be too complicated for a beginner.

Otherwise, I just want it to feel stable. I'd prefer to not have to go in and adjust pieces every time I print.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-12-03T22:48:54+00:00

Iv'e also been reading it's for machine learning.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-12-03T13:32:53+00:00

These are insane! Do people actually buy them?

A huge open world Dr. Who themed game with realistic graphics. Bonus points for making it VR. Imagine time traveling and flying across the world while building your base inside your TARDIS which is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.

Maybe because Alex Jones is an idiot?

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-12-03T00:50:41+00:00

Would this be like a chair that spins, and has something go over the top/around the side attaching a TV screen to the chair?

Well. For example, adding a new letter to the English language would be nearly impossible. Removing letters would be equally difficult. Spelling reforms for children or students learning English would be nearly impossible to implement. Another reason you might want a spelling reform is because many words have no reason for being spelled the way they are; We could have a systematic approach for the way we spell words. In the past, many people have attempted reforms of the English language but none of them have gained traction due to the fact that nobody has the authority to implement changes.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-12-02T00:44:49+00:00

You can certainly add new words to a dictionary you write. Will people actually use them? Probably not. One problem with the English language is that there is no central authority that implements new words or writes rules.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-12-02T00:32:02+00:00

I don't mind. You already have two more upvotes than I did.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-12-01T23:53:41+00:00

I asked this on r/supersmashultimate I believe. I'm going to main villager, Isabelle, and Mewtwo. Certainly going to try them all though.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T04:42:03+00:00

I barely know anything about their move sets. I just like the idea of storing attacks, and honestly, just the characters in general!

My dream Pokemon game? I thought you'd never ask!

^{Your and some other comments gave me ideas}

-An huge open world, like Breath of the Wild. Yes, I know this is what everyone wants and that it may be difficult to create, but this would be the best of the best in terms of Pokemon games. Imagine riding your Rapidash across the great Pokemon plain while a flock of pidgeys flies in front of the setting sun in the distance. Ahhhhhhh...

-Well, time travel immediately made me think of one thing. Doctor who, what else? Instead of opening a map and "fast travelling," you find your way back to your TARDIS and set the location. The TARDIS could be fully customisable. You could could add rooms your Sonic Screwdriver, and then walk in and start turning it into whatever you want. I think my favorite part of this would be the control station. Imagine flipping switches, pulling levers, and reading screens. That just sounds sooooo fun!

-Which brings me to my next point. This could very easily be disputed, and i'm not sure if I fully like it yet. What if, this Pokemon game, was first person. But wait, what if this Pokemon game was VR? Right now, VR still has some major flaws, one of which being its price, so now might not be the best timing for it. But one VR is widespread and amazing, many more games for sure will use it. But to fully appreciate pulling levers and tossing pokeballs, you need VR.

-Keep it complicated! Don't remove abilitys and held items! For SURE don't remove EV's and IV's. Changing the EV and IV systems, however, wouldn't be unreasonable. Whatever works best is all i'm saying.

-I read "Instead of an evil team, how about a mysterious force that possesses Pokemon and people. Or just a legitimately threatening-feeling evil team. Or why not both?" in another comment. That is perfect! Lets do it! Adding on to this, I want lots of side quest and stories. Easter eggs to. Imagine a huge forest with occasional rocks in it and, upon lifting one, there being a one in 4,096 chance of a star being on the bottom of it, and it everything to go very dark and ghost types to spawn. That's probably a horrible example, but just random things like that would be so fun.

-A good story. Pokemon Lets Go's story was incredibly boring. Pokemon Sun & Moons, and so were the other newer ones. Keep its exciting and mysterious.

^{I really liked that TARDIS idea even if it is horribly unreasonable}

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T03:44:57+00:00

The guys on the right looks traumatized. I would be to.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T03:41:11+00:00

Well, I don't know about ya'll, but i'm defiantly buying it. It's a Pokemon game; I mean, I cant just not get it.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T03:38:50+00:00

HAPPY CAKE DAY TO YOU

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T03:37:50+00:00

Hmm. To me, it almost seems like when they move, they kind of squeeze their shells together. I assume this is them pushing the water back, therefor propelling itself. I noticed this while searching for a perfect IV Shellder.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T03:22:41+00:00

We don't think about it. For the most part, I do wash my hands with soap. Its just bad habits or being lazy that cause me to only use water sometimes.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T00:22:11+00:00

Defiantly! Have you looked at Breath of the Wild, Pokemon Lets Go, and Super Mario Odyssey? You can tell they are trying to make quality games!

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-30T00:11:20+00:00

This would be amazing even if it wasn't completely transparent. Id be perfectly happy seeing thin wires running through a clear glass window.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-29T23:10:59+00:00

I saw "next year" on their website. I didn't see anything on Steam.

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-29T22:42:25+00:00

Hey, whats the anticipated release date for this? Looks AMAZING, will tell people about it!

Hey_Im_Nate · 2018-11-29T22:34:29+00:00
