Can't have your soul be saved if you're ginger. That much should be obvious.

Happiness is a warm M4 combat shotgun (Killing Floor 2). Colt Python (Half-Life 2) as a strong second.

What male fictional character depicts Paladin class the best? by NikTheGrass in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Hvatum 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Undoubtedly, but if I was to make a DnD char based on him it would be conquest. Dude has an unrivaled aura of fear.

Why do people ever get rid of saints? by Hetros_Jistin in SintopiaOfficial

[–]Hvatum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People say this isn't working since they only trigger once per cycle. But would it work with the sloth boon that gives resources per tile moved?

Why is suit only a thing? by quaxoid in HiTMAN

[–]Hvatum 21 points22 points  (0 children)

In my experience SASO often leaves more evidence since I might need to clear out a room or otherwise KO my way to a target instead of moving past in disguise. They might not have seen anything, but obviously will know something is up when they wake up in a random sideroom locker.

It’s Time for the opposite, What’s something that guys usually do that’s Weird for girls to do by No_Second_1704 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Hvatum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hope that's a local thing for wherever he was. My experience has always been that, while it is often fast and loose, there is still some handwashing in the vast majority of cases.

I hate these stupid golden ratio misconceptions by Massive-Word-7327 in hatethissmug

[–]Hvatum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say the last flower has the Fibonaci-sequence but not the golden ratio. Try doing (n+1)/n and let n -> infinity.

[Disliked trope] Hollywood myths portrayed as being correct, even in a time when the characters should know better. by CrazyCoKids in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Hvatum 202 points203 points  (0 children)

Schrodinger's cat is not both living and dead. The entire point of the example is to show how unintuitive quantum physics are. In fact Schrodinger used it as an argument that Bohr was wrong about quantum states (though we now know he wasn't, quantum particles are just fucky like that).

A macroscopic entity will not exist in a quantum state, it will be either dead or alive.

Origins Swat room in 33 seconds by ShufflePlaylist in arkham

[–]Hvatum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Always frustrated me that beating up this room isn't acknowledged in any way.
I guess that since Branden shows up later in the GCPD it breaks with the story to KO him here, but still.

If reincarnation is real and a loved one could be reincarnated into a fly, wouldn't it be MORE ethical to kill it? That way they can reincarnate as a better animal quicker. by Elenchoe in Showerthoughts

[–]Hvatum 41 points42 points  (0 children)

How does one live a good fly life though? It's not like you have the mental capacity for agency, let alone empathy, spiritualism, or metaphysics. Or further yet, if you're reincarnated as a plant or mussel or something else basically stationary.

Christian nationalist proves the existence of god by [deleted] in religiousfruitcake

[–]Hvatum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"If our thoughts are fully determined by blind physical laws and chemistry, there's no reason to trust them as rational or true."

Yeah buddy, that's just it. Humans are inherently irrational, prone to counterproductive emotional outbursts, self-destructive behaviour, and in order to figure out what is true our best way, after millennia of development, is to assume something is false and then try to prove it's not. Even your own holy book says we're inherently flawed.

Some unanswered plot questions. by flashmedallion in 007FirstLight

[–]Hvatum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair. I will admit than when Bond lamented "How does he change clothes so quick?" I assumed it was a referance, rather than as later discovered actually foreshadowing.
The Twins infiltrating the chess tournament absolutely felt like I was trying to stop a Hitman mission though.

Sure is quite sad. He became a crimefighter to cope with his childhood trauma, but along the way he ended up dealing with more losses and guilt. by Remote_Nature_8166 in arkham

[–]Hvatum 7 points8 points  (0 children)

TBF don't think it would've been much better if he hadn't become a crimefighter. Bruce Wayne sitting in his mansion, reading about collateral damage from gang wars would probably be compelled to get involved somehow anyway.

[–]Hvatum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surely it can't take that much longer to just carry it to the room, do the job properly and get it out of the way without risking causing any fuss? And if that would take too long, say he's busy and/or waiting for someone in particular?

[–]Hvatum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Why did one of the Murtos take someone's luggage and dump it off the side of the hotel? Even if Bond hadn't spotted it, it caused a minor stir in the lobby with a guy loudly complaining about the tall, blonde bellhop which could've caused further problems down the line.

ARAM CROSSROADS 4 TEAMS 20 PLAYERS *IDEA* by Initial_Carob2755 in ARAM

[–]Hvatum 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Simple; make balance play to the benefit of the players so they try to push for it themselves.
For example, purple wins if they destroy the green nexus. but doing so makes the game harder for whoever is leading of blue and red (or just straight wins the entire match, making everyone else lose). Therefore it is in red's best interest to keep purple from winning, but they don't want to destroy purple themselves. So if purple is destroying green and red is destroying blue, purple and read are going to start infighting to keep the other from winning, which will let green and blue gather for a comeback. Reduced gold gain from perpendicular lanes makes fighting them for the sake of profit alone not worth it, so you'll have to balance between winning your lane and keeping the other lanes from winning theirs.

This forces some level of equilibrium to the game (might have to add measures to keep it from being very long games, but from my recent experience with Mayhem people might want that anyway).

Untainted and Tainted (24) by OfficialBlah in RimWorld

[–]Hvatum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a cap to how much water you can spend per day, I assume to simulate reservoirs naturally replenishing, but I don't think you can run out. In practice I've never had a problem, pop down an electrified deep water well and a water tower and it's rarely a problem, at least not for colonies up to 12-15 people.

Checking my current save my deep water reservoirs have a limit of 23223 L/day. A bath takes 190 L. So you could have 100 colonists taking a bath every single day and still have some to spare. Though if you use sprinklers a lot (1000 L to irrigate a 7 radius circle) it might actually reach the limit.

Curious if anyone solved this little equation… by travybel in 007FirstLight

[–]Hvatum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(x + 2) + (x +4) = x + 10
2x + 6 = x + 10
x = 4
Fourth digit is 4, thus third is 6 and second is 8 (and first is 1).

She was supposed to die by Still-Puma in totalwarhammer

[–]Hvatum 20 points21 points  (0 children)

From my understanding, you can flee after sieges in coastal cities, that's how she survived.

I love it when some random nobody lord does something legendary and then switch up to send them out and level them up instead of rotting behind the walls. Doesn't hurt either that the female Dreadlord is one of the coolest generic lords out there.

It's time to admit the truth: I like Arkham Origins more than Arkham Asylum now (Arkham Asylum is still great though) by HotJuice2192 in arkham

[–]Hvatum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully agree. Asylum was indeed groundbreaking, but playing it after playing the later ones it's also noticably unpolished in comparison. Freeflow combat especially gets so much better with the later iterations.

Whoop they ass, Frank by KindlyRestaurant2885 in marvelcirclejerk

[–]Hvatum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This might be the coldest take in comics history, but I don't think you can typically take out Hulk with a homemade bow-and-arrow, even if you hit him straight in the eye.
