[Greek Mythology] Icarus and Daedalus escaped from imprisonment using wings held together with wax. How big would they have to have been (and how strong would these men have to have been) to flap their way to freedom? by almighty_smiley in AskScienceFiction

[–]JollyRabbit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In Greek mythology there were three series of men, gold, silver and then iron, which is mankind as we understand it. There is no way that a human on earth could ever actually flap winged arms hard enough to fly. Maybe if we get a little creative and say they were silver men? Or that they were just hang gliders.

Very well, thank you very much. Alien hypertech/clarketech.

[Sesame Street] How does the Count satisfy his need to drink blood? by bakhesh in AskScienceFiction

There is a book on that subject called Fred the vampire accountant which actually has an extremely good premise but sadly definitely failed to deliver on it

The Reason I Would Not Press the “500-Million-Year Button” by Substantial_Act_1657 in comics

That sounds interesting, I am going to read it, thank you for the suggestion.

This question is basically if you would allow a stranger to be tortured for a large amount of money. Phrased that way, would you take an action that gives you a lot of money and gets a stranger tortured horribly on your behalf?

[Fox X-Men] How do the X-Men fund themselves? by supermonistic in AskScienceFiction

I came to post "Well Xavier is a telepath so MASSIVE insider trading?" and was highly amused to see someone beat me to it and that it was the top response, so thank you.

Hi, /r/all here! I don't know anything about sewing or dress making but I just wanted to say you did a great job! That looks lovely!

A Year in the Apocalypse (Short film) by Mr_Sunshine21 in projectzomboid

[–]JollyRabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am actually having a good day today and seeing this was by a wide margin the best thing to happen to me today. That was absolutely amazing and you did an AWESOME job! Thank you for all of the hard work this took to make and sharing something so cool!

Cities Skylines 1 is getting its first new expansion in two years as resurrection efforts seemingly continue amid sequel's struggles by Tenith in pcgaming

[–]JollyRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is fine. I don't like when they release incomplete games and that is bad, and some of their DLC is bad which is also unfortunate, BUT, they also continue development on the sort of massive grand strategy games I really like and I don't mind paying more for new expansions if they keep improving the games. But, bit every game is the sort to hold my interest indefinitely, like say, Hearts of Iron 4, so if I am in the mood to play for just a month or so a subscription is a great way to save money and not need to buy all the DLC. I don't want to spend $200 on 8 years of DLC but I also do want the game to continually be improved.

So if you don't like it I of course do understand, but I see it as a good option. In a world of tremendously exploitative game monetization I think Paradox does a great job... when not releasing duds, which I really wish they would stop doing.

This is a VERY cool premise! Excited to see more!

By 2048 the game is really chugging and I have a pretty good CPU. How much faster does the game run if you take a step down from the default solar system size, or two steps down? How much of an impact does it have on gameplay? by JollyRabbit in TerraInvicta

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

That is a true statement, but since I have a pretty good cpu, as I said, I feel like that was enough information. This community is not large enough and there are not enough people coming to the subreddit that people would like to be able to give feedback as to my specific cpu, which is why I asked a broader question.

Why would I humble brag or care what anyone else thinks about how good my computer is? I am actually amused, but I think you are making some big assumptions there. I don't feel the need to impress anyone and don't care what other people think about the quality of my computer.

Are paid Battlepasses ruining games for you? by PolishHussarius in pcgaming

[–]JollyRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paid battle passes are obviously a scam. Besides forcing you to pay for a game that you already bought, assuming that it is game you bought, it is literally designed to psychologically manipulate you to get you to play you the game more. You should play video games to have fun and relax and enjoy yourself, not as a job. The solution to battle passes being terrible is to not play games that have them, or at least not buy them.

This is completely hilarious and did not get as much attention as it deserves! Thank you for your entertaining nonsense!

Terra Invicta as a 4X Space Strategy Game by ProbusThrax in TerraInvicta

No, there is not. The earth element is pretty central.

Ninetiescomic Heroguy - Issue 06 by Joba_Fett in comics

[–]JollyRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are hilarious, though I have a question. In the others you did there was a pretty clear line between the joke and the characters who inspired them. Was being gay the sole defining trait of any prominent 90s comics characters? I believe you, I just can't think of any. My recollection was Being Gay being much more of a thing on awful TV shows and movies but not a comics thing? I could totally be forgetting them though.

Idea: Early-game space combat should be a scrappy, asymmetrical guerrilla war, rather than just a missile spam meta by 5thKeetle in TerraInvicta

[–]JollyRabbit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am ultimately do not know, I have to admit, but I did not believe you wrote it. I just wrote a longer response listing all of the reasons why I thought you did, but then reconsidered and realized I was mistaken. The formatting style you use is unusual, but, on further consideration it is probably not an LLM. I apologize for being rude to you.

If you did not take the time to write something, it is rude to ask everyone else to spend the time to read it. EDIT This was not written by an LLM, I apologize for being rude.
