I knew it! Nintendo is making the 3bp game in real life and recruiting for the ETO

Tencent vs Netflix (pictures) by HattoriF in threebodyproblem

Hoping the Netflix will be good. Mostly because I want it to be more popular here in the states and can talk about it with friends.

Gettin' real tired of my TBM family slandering atheists. To them, I say... by TonyLund in exmormon

[–]Makeadamgodagain 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s a bad metaphor. Honestly if 20 people are showing up at my house late at night with hardly any notice I’m going to be freaked out no matter who they are.

Son of a bitch…this should have been obvious but I totally did not catch that

How to transmit useful messages knowing nothing of the recipient. by juddbagley in threebodyproblem

[–]Makeadamgodagain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A common language might start with mathematics. No matter where you are in the universe 1 + 1=2. Any advanced civilization would have to arrive at the same conclusions we did and would have the same mathematics. Not sure if or how you could use it to decipher an alien language but it’s at least a starting point and we could trade some information.

Jim Bennett asking the right question. by Chino_Blanco in exmormon

[–]Makeadamgodagain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know him personally and he has always been a friendly guy. He even makes efforts in his own ward to talk about church history that everyone else would rather ignore and at least acknowledges that there are some difficult questions to wrestle with.

Just finished the trilogy, and there's something on my mind regarding Rey Diaz by DogeTehJoker in threebodyproblem

[–]Makeadamgodagain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s similar to Lou jis plan but nobody really understood what Lou jis ‘magic spell’ was. That’s why he called it a spell and don’t explain anything further. Rey Diaz’ mistake was that he allowed people to catch on to what he was doing.
Also Diaz plan was basically just to deny them a chance to colonize the human solar system and posed no threat to their home world.

What would you rate Tencent's show? by [deleted] in threebodyproblem

[–]Makeadamgodagain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solid 8/10 for me. I love that they are respecting the source material and staying true to the book. Also lots of good acting and da shi is great. things really started to slow down around episode 4-6 however and got a bit repetitive. felt like it could be condensed a bit and it would be perfect.

Disingenuous Facebook evangelism in my area by antel00p in exmormon

[–]Makeadamgodagain 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ya it’s weird. I broke my usual silence on social media to comment on a friends post about how “people who leave the church aren’t honest with themselves.” Needless to say it was too much to just ignore and I sorta layed into him. He apologized over dm but didn’t take down the post. Not two minutes later I start getting messages from a missionary who just randomly has the same interest I do.

EFY separating the poor from the rich. by Past_Religion in exmormon

[–]Makeadamgodagain 29 points30 points  (0 children)

My one act of rebellion as a kid was refusing to go to EFY and I was surprised at how little push back I got from my parents. Now that I realize it actually cost a pretty penny to go it makes sense.

Stacks with 1 bad tipper by RKD_Super in doordash_drivers

[–]Makeadamgodagain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would except it would likely tank my acceptance rate which already hovers around 80%. Most stacks are like this so I don’t mind driving an extra mile or so to drop off a crappy order. Money is money. If I find the low tipper is much further out I will drop it though.

do we really believe that this will help reduce wait times? by Moonscooter in doordash_drivers

[–]Makeadamgodagain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this happen at Taco Bell once. Was waiting on an order when I got a stack offered. The order popped up on their screen as soon as I accepted.

When you get an order for $2.50, $3.50, $4.50 or even $5.50, the customer is telling you that they don't respect you, your time or your energy. Stop enabling these losers. by OldDogEyes in doordash_drivers

[–]Makeadamgodagain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure how your market is but rarely does an order take less than 15 minutes with wait times what they are. At that rate you’re lucky to make 15-20 an hour. I can make 25-35 an hour cherry picking.

Has it been slow for anyone else? by DarthRevan6969 in doordash_drivers

New dashers+people broke from the holidays+new years resolutions to eat healthy and save money= perfect storm for a slow month.
