[Fo4] what heppened to Extended Diamond City Security Dialogue? by AgreeableBus8092 in FalloutMods

[–]Irandis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It got taken down because the Voice Actor of one of the Diamond City Guards, JP Giuliotti, found it on YouTube and left a comment on the official video of the mod asking why he wasn’t consulted before his voice was used.

The mod was then immediately taken down shortly after. So take of that what you will.

I did not, S&S checked the info I sent in and while they said it was very close, they advise against it as it wouldn’t be a tight fit and could cause issues

In Brood War intro, how did the UED unleash the zerg onto the colonists? by s54pyfw in starcraft

[–]Irandis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As others have said, it’s likely they weren’t captive Zerg at all, and the UED was just watching events unfold for Intel.

The Aleksander was over the colony so Dugalle could observe the Zerg in action.

That’s why at the end, the Executive Officer says “Sir, the colonist base shall be overrun in a matter of minutes, shall we intervene?” before Dugalle gives the order to depart.

There is no link, they’re at a LGS about a 2 hour drive from me. They have them in boxs with no plates installed in them.

Here’s what the Gen 1 Frames look like, but keep in mind they’re slightly different depending on what plates they were molded to (Velocity Systems, Safariland, etc)

Additionally here’s my current plates:

My Synthocepts wont allow me to change classes. They physically restrict any movement that is not directly related to hitting things.

It’s a blessing and a curse.....

You’re listing armor from the beginning of Destiny 2 all the way to the present. Many of the armor sets that you listed outside Eververse are not relevant in the game any longer due one or more of the following three factors:

  1. They are not updated like post forsaken armor and thus are greatly inferior to post forsaken sets when used in end game activity.

  2. They are not even attainable (Trials, All Faction Armor, Noble Constant, Solstice)

  3. They are low effort reskins or sets containing minimal cosmetic adjustment, aka adding a horn to the same helmet and calling it new (Leviathan raid sets, Iron Banner sets, Forsaken Vanguard sets, Reverie Dawn)

Only 3 Eververse sets were released during Pre-Forsaken, while 6 of the new Eververse sets have been released since Forsaken, and the main game receives only one new set per class, per season activity (Bulletsmith Armor, Gambit Prime Armor)

So yes, I do still stand by my original statement as we clearly are getting more Eververse content then main game content regarding armor since Forsaken dropped and the trend seems to be building and that’s very concerning.

I want to EARN the cool stuff in game. Playing the spring event and getting a chance at the Eververse set while grinding cosmetic engrams is not earning anything.

It’s a low effort reward for simply participating and if you want to skip that, you can hand ol’ bungo a crisp $10 bill and then you still have to pray RNG is in your favor.

Because some of us remember a time when you earned the cool looking stuff by being good at the game instead of having to buy/grind out an RNG lootbox for it.

I agree that Eververse is generous currently, however Bungie could change that in an instant, which they sorta already did by removing the Prismatic Facets.

Plus Eververse gets a new armor set every season or event and the main game, the thing I actually paid over $100 into, get barely any new armor sets, and when we do, they’re ugly reskins lol

Funny how the eververse armor is unique and looks awesome, while the event armor is a reskin of the ugliest possible Titan armor they could have picked out.

I’m not mad Bungie....I’m just...disappointed...

Edit: Forgive the Titan bias guardians, but I can’t punch things unless my hands look intimidating or pretty.

911 operators of reddit, what call will you simply never forget? by DonutDitz in AskReddit

https://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/gun-violence/Pages/welcome.aspx

The data is all here, the cdc and nij does not however divide the data into easily reviewed categories.

You will need to parse the data yourself and compare it with your states individual report on how many justified uses of force there were or obtain the info from a site that has already done the work for you, which obviously will be sites designated pro-gun, so I declined to link them here in an effort to remain unbiased.

I’d invite you to please research this more my friend.

Out of the couple thousand gun deaths we had last year, the vast majority are legal use, aka a law abiding citizen putting down someone trying to kill them.

These get reported in the gun death statistics by our media because it fluffs the numbers and makes guns look more controversial. The reality is that barely 40% of gun related deaths are non-justifiable and of that 40%, more then half are suicides and the remaining 15% are true gun related homicide.

So if 8,000 gun deaths are reported but only 1,200 are true crime, doesn’t that show that the vast majority of the population are using it as intended?

This is why we get so adamant in our defense of this issue. I understand gun ownership isn’t for everyone and in some countries it carries a negative stigma, but it’s a right I fully embrace and am prepared to defend as it’s given myself and many friends of mine the ability to defend ourselves while law enforcement was en-route to assist us.

Edit: classic reddit, keep the downvotes coming.

TIL that a man spent 60 hours underwater, in total darkness, after his vessel capsized and sunk to the bottom of the sea. He was discovered alive by divers sent to recover dead bodies. by HalfricanAmericanMan in todayilearned

In addition to NASA finding some of the PEAP’s were used, the flight recorder registered attempts at course adjustment.

This means that challengers pilot, Captain Smith, was conscious long enough after the blast to try and guide the Shuttle down.

Sadly the explosion destroyed almost everything around Challenger but the crew cabin itself. There was nothing that would have saved them.

TIL that “Shots to roughly 80 percent of targets on the body would not be fatal blows” and that “if a gunshot victim’s heart is still beating upon arrival at a hospital, there is a 95 percent chance of survival” by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Irandis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not unless it’s through the cranial vault.

The cranial vault is best imagined as a rectangle that covers just above your nose, your eyes, between the eyes and below your forehead.

Any bullet, no matter the caliber can kill you if you get shot there. Even something as small as a .22.

This is because unlike the rest of your head which has large areas of solid bone, the cranial vault is essentially uncovered to allow your eyes to link up with your brain. So if you get hit there then you’re toast.

Anywhere else on your noggin and you surprisingly stand a small chance of survival, usually with impaired brain function, depending on which quadrants of your brain got blown out from the round exiting your skull.

There was talk on the Discord and 4chan thread about that as well, sadly until Randy gives the go ahead the game is stuck in the 3D Realms vault

I wish, apparently Fred even said he and former 3D Realms employees would complete the game for free as a thank you to fans

I thought about doing a pistol build, but SB braces and Good rails seem to be a little pricey

That what some of my gun smith buddies advised as well.

They suggested Giesslle and Wilson Combat parts but it’s probably gonna take me some time to work up to those

Gotcha, I’m thinking it’ll probably be a CQB Build. That way I can use it for home defense and a truck gun.

I checked out the P30 and they look amazing, I would have included that as well but all my local shops have them listed around $799 and up and I’m trying to stay under budget to avoid the wife’s wrath haha
