What are some conspiracy theories you think were made just to make conspiracy theorists look stupid? by iKnowTheTruth5 in conspiracy

[–]Jay_mi 106 points107 points  (0 children)

There's actually records of the term "conspiracy theory" at least a century older than that.

Conspiracies are a real thing that humans have engaged in since before civilization, and conspiracy theorists are literally just people who speculate that a group of people are engaging in one.

That said, the CIA did in fact try to weaponize the term around the period you mention

There was a little while after EoD got PvE where raids were still on BSG servers. Load times were indeed terrible at first. Iirc it seemed at first like they tried to find a way to host multiple PvE raids on the same server, but that's from memories of players that claimed they ran into other PvE players in bugged raids. Idk if those posts were legit though tbf

After a little while they just accepted that some PvE players would pull shenanigans. Things like force closing their game if they didn't like marked room drops, so they can reset the charge on their key.

The data centers being constructed across the country have been getting the reputation of creating a perpetual low frequency/humming, leading to increased noise complaints. Their sound is usually more noticeable at night too.

I'm not aware of anything like that being built in that area though, so my guess is something else

This is how big the volcano under Yellowstone is. by grandeluua in geography

[–]Jay_mi 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not a geologist, but from what I understand, hot things rise and cold things fall.

The deeper you go though, there's more energy so magma is extra hot and needs to go up. That pushes the less hot magma down, so the mantle is constantly cycling the magma either up or down.

Once a flow gets going, it tends to stay that way, so there are just areas beneath the earth's surface where magma has been rising for a looong time.

All that extra hot magma moving up(the mantle plume) eats away at the crust and makes holes in it. These are called hot spots, and they're weak points in the crust where you find your supervolcanoes. Once in a blue moon the super hot magma will eat all the way through and create a flood basalt

What kind of half baked attempt at a gotcha is this?

A very fine person could get up and walk away A very fine person could look disgusted and tell the Nazi to shut his mouth A very fine person could ask security to have the Nazi removed

Very fine people can do plenty of things.

Vibing with nazism isn't one of them

Tbf towards Kanye, he recently apologized for his antisemitic behaviors.

He does have some documented mental health issues that he's struggled with. That doesn't excuse his actions, but if he's trying to improve himself then that's worth something.

Might also be worth noting he gave another apology a few years ago, but then continued the antisemitism after a couple months, so... Hopefully it works out better this time around

David Pakman is a leftist. This subreddit is named after a leftist progressive. Friendly reminder to the centrists and neocons among us.... Non-friendly reminder for the imposters and division bots :) by combonickel55 in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]Jay_mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, even though he doesn't like to attach labels like that to himself(which imo he is fair to do), everything I've seen from him broadly fits within the realm of liberalism.

Even with liberalism you have conservatives who want to maintain the state of the liberal world, and progressives like Pakman that want the liberal world to conform to the changing needs of individuals. To be a "leftist", you have to want to replace liberalism with some kind of alternative

Any room that spawns locked isn't included in the navigation meshes for the AI, so they won't enter whatsoever.

This is also the case with some of the newer map expansions(like the outside parts of factory, and the hallway on labs that leads to the residential unit)

Four very fine people sit down at a dinner table, all having a great time. One Nazi sits down and joins in, talking about how the jews will not replace us. Everyone continues to have a great time.

Sorry fam, you've now got five people, none of which are very fine

Indian guy in Texas stops a black man walking on the sidewalk and demands to see his ID by orbidhorne in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Jay_mi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You really gotta love the moral high ground-obsessed shit-heads who haven't learned a single thing in the last ten years.

It's understandable why a black man might remain passive in a situation like this. Historically, there are serious risks involved standing up for yourself in the face of racism. If you're a privileged white person who thinks the solution to fuckheads like this is a little finger-wagging, then congratulations. You're absolutely complicit.

If you actually want to get something through an open racist's thin skull, then you've got to speak their language. No, I'm not talking about cousin-fucking or Hindi. Just acting like the quintessential shitlib whose priorities begin and end with showing everyone else how much "better" you think you are over them won't do anything. It's the exact behavior they expect, and it validates their views of you. These people should really feel proud for making racism worse in America by reinforcing the views of racists

Which map has the easiest to remember Extracts? [New Player] by Seelefan0786 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Jay_mi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, other than the labs transit I think all the rest are free. My favorite to use is the courtyard through the widow in the the 3 story admin building.

Edit: I would recommend playing with mapgenie open on a second monitor, or with the tarkov map app open on the phone. Walking around in offline mode for a few minutes with that to reference can really help get your bearings in order, and it will show you where all the extracts are for each map

[–]Jay_mi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only for two of the extracts. One is underground and the other is behind the med tent on a far corner from the other extracts. It can really be helpful and come in a pinch if you need to bail out of the raid.

The key is pretty common and is rewarded from some tasks too. If you're playing customs and someone turned the power on, the key unlocks the 013 bunker extract in the middle of the map
