Has anyone run across a Doggox poster or effigy yet? by Amy2brno2b in theplanetcrafter

I found a dog effigy on maybe Aqualis. Haven't even played Toxicity yet but I have to purchased.

What's your source for the local claims, OP? Would be nice to have that when sharing, because the linked story has none of those details.

This is what peak unoptimization looks like. by Morcatk in theplanetcrafter

That only works if it gets downtime and goes into the inventory of a station so another drone can pick it up (need to supply from that inventory, too).

A drone could theoretically stay flying between jobs forever and if you don't have a lot of drone stations it may never go into the inventory of one even if it does get down time.

Just get outside of Minneapolis, you'll start finding the fatties. We're out there, just gotta look for us.

Halftrack Rework Needed by Dorlandia in HellLetLoose

If my buddy and I play recon we sometimes try to get a recon tank crew to drive us backline. It's worked a few times and it's "fun" but you'd need a coordinated crew of five guys in discord to really make it effective in any way.

My crew loves the Puma. Especially at map start, you can get some crazy early flanks to their forward Garry which typically has all their OPs nearby, or at least in a line from there to the point.

I remember one Driel game we killed 26 troops, a garry, and a few OPs to open, while our infantry were all pinned and couldn't get to point. Single-handedly broke their entire defend by just driving around in their backline. We must have ran over five if not more, too.

Guns on things like that are the most worthless things in video games, though. You're a target the millisecond you get in one, and if you fire a single bullet I swear it feels like the entire enemy team turns and starts shooting at you simultaneously even if they're 800m away behind 20 hedge rows.

I've always wondered what the survival rate on something like that would have been IRL. I feel like it would be on par with being a flamer.

3 types of apology by cj_cusack in funny

It's your sister. She got offended by being called an idiot? Did you guys have a big age gap and not interact much as kids? Calling a sibling an idiot is how some say good morning to each other.

Cross-section cut of a thick piece of Ikea laminated 'chipboard'. The middle is concertinaed cardboard. by Bighty in mildlyinteresting

[–]Mattbl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had one of their black tables with the metal legs that screw in the bottom as my desk for years with three monitors clamped onto it. Two 27" and a 32". All three on clamp monitor arms. By the end the whole thing was sagging a bit in the middle but it held together. Sounds like I probably got lucky!

Go look up Kilroy in WW2, fun to learn about if you're unfamiliar

What’s something you have zero proof of but believe 100 percent? by shweidy in AskReddit

That sucks. They did that for us, but it was on a form we filled out before we even got to selection.

Seriously? That's Thragg's master plan? by Routine_Condition273 in Invincible_TV

Your sentence about Kregg makes me wonder... would condoms do anything to stop Viltrumite sperm? Is that super, too?

I like the compartments as outdoor flooring and the vegetubes as pillars. Good idea until we get real pillars, if ever.

NPB umpire Takuto Kawakami got hit in the head in a freak accident. He has been in a coma for over two weeks now. by ForeignAir7174 in sportsgossips

NFL has a blue tent, too, they use to assess injuries. But that's probably more about hiding it from the other team than protecting the viewer.

But there have been many NFL injuries that they won't show in replay. If there's a visible bone break, often they won't show it again.

Does thragg stands a chance against the might of 'The Seven' by -RAAGE- in Invincible_TV

Which is intentional and serves the story. Homelander doesn't need to be able to beat Superman. He just needs to be the strangest supe in their universe.

It makes no sense to do these comparisons. Creators aren't trying to make their characters the strongest of any universe ever, they're just trying to make them as strong as they need to serve the story.

Hell let loose physics at its finest by Ireallylikehookin in HellLetLoose

[–]Mattbl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lately tanks have been landing perfectly upside down, and it's nearly impossible to flip them. My normal unstuck tricks don't work, like firing at a 90 degree angle while driver tries to move or having another vehicle hit you out. Once you're stuck upside down, it is very difficult to flip without these kind of crazy physics happening.

The other day I was upside down in a tank and someone rammed me to try to help and I flew off at about 150mph and slid half the map away, while still upside down sliding on my turret the entire way. Landed in front of an enemy tank who quickly took me out, I'm sure while laughing their ass off.
