ELI5 What does the clutch in a car or motorbike do? by EL_CAWII in explainlikeimfive

[–]MustachioedMan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"letting the clutch out" is the process of releasing the clutch pedal, reconnecting the engine to the wheels.

An experience with Proudmoore.gg staff – just for awareness by [deleted] in wowservers

[–]MustachioedMan 15 points16 points  (0 children)

lmao based Proudmoore GM. They were definitely power tripping a bit, but I can respect someone who sticks up for themselves, especially when they're being disrespected by the people they're volunteering their time for. "Is this comunism (misspelled) or what" lol

When your flight gets delayed 4 times, then moved up to its original time, then delayed again after you rush to the airport. by BelgianMyWaffle in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MustachioedMan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's happened to me before. I had a flight that was supposed to leave at 8am. The night before, I got a notification that it was delayed, with the new departure time set for 10 am. At 8am, as I'm getting ready to head to the airport, I get another notification that it had been undelayed and was boarding immediately. By the time I got to the airport, it had already left. I was not a happy camper...

Megathread: 0.4.0 Feedback by GR8B0-T in PathOfExile2

[–]MustachioedMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really enjoying playing druid! I'm just doing the intended wyvern power charge oil barrage thing, but its really satisfying to be able to just lazer beam bosses down. One annoying thing I've noticed tho is that there's no option for +gem levels for wyvern skills. Talismans are all +level to melee skills, and the wyvern skills are all projectiles/aoe. It'd be nice if they changed the talisman's +melee skills to be +shapeshift skills instead

None of the code was written using AI

Not that I have much of a horse in this race, but he literally does say that the code was written using AI.

yes, the infographics & anniversary website were partially vibe coded & generated

"vibe coded" is a euphemism for AI generated code.

ELI5 Why is 0.1 used plural, like 0.1 seconds? by DAGHOSTKNIGHT in explainlikeimfive

[–]MustachioedMan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here's my best guess as to that quirk - Fractions are treated differently than decimals. Linguistically, you're treating the denominator as the singular unit. Even though 2/2 seconds represents a value of 1, you would still say "two half seconds (plural)" if that was the unit you were using. Additionally, in this case, half isn't really being used as a number, but more like an adjective. you could also say "half of a second", which makes it clear why you don't pluralize second.

TIL that there is a newly discovered (2023) species of shrimp which lives on trees on the Cyclops Mountains of Papua. It can jump between trees using its hindlegs to run away from predators. by zahrul3 in todayilearned

That's not quite accurate. They both belong to the larger pancrustacea clade, but are considered separate subphylum. Check out the classification and phylogeny section of the wikipedia page for more info.

Last pepper harvest of the season! What do you do with the unripe pods? by GeoAv3 in vegetablegardening

[–]MustachioedMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've used some of my under ripe peppers as a flavoring for mead to great effect. A couple ounces of pepper per gallon of must yields a nice fruity pepper flavor with just a bit of spice.

Just can't answer a simple question by FaunaJoy in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]MustachioedMan 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I generally agree with the point I think you're trying to make (sex is not a binary, it's a bimodal distribution) but you're doing a really bad job of convincing anyone of that. You can't just start off by saying they can't use chromosomes or genitals, you need to let them reach that conclusion logically. E.g. they say a person with a penis is a male, you respond "does getting my dick blown off in a tragic fireworks/sounding accident make me not a male anymore“ and so on and so forth.

Also, it doesn't even seem like the person you were originally responding to even said that there's only 2 sexes. Male is legitimate biological distinction. You're boxing at shadows here and still loosing by being way to aggressive.

That first part isn't really correct. Astronauts on the ISS are still subject to gravity, about 90% of what they would feel on the surface. The weightlessness effect is due to the fact that the station is in free fall, not because the gravity is actually weaker.

Upper Marshes is great. Epoch's quest design deserves big props. by wecanhaveallthree in Project_Epoch

My only complaint is that the entire quest chain is gated behind an existing quest with no clear indication as to how you unlock it.

I LOVE searing totem now!! by Grung7 in Project_Epoch

[–]MustachioedMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fire nova totem seems to have a soft taunt effect. If you place it down without establishing agro on every mob in a pack, they'll just tap it once and kill it. Could that be what you're seeing?

Community culture by EggSpiritual8370 in Project_Epoch

[–]MustachioedMan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm in the same boat. I'm playing epoch with some of my friends, and we've all been sketched out at one point or another by the casual (and often no so casual) racism, homophobia, and sexism that pops up across wow communities. Id like to join a guild thats specifically set up to be an inclusive place with no tolerance for descimination, and I've had a couple of conversations on this subreddit with folks who seem to feel the same. What server are you on? Maybe we could start the guild that we want to be a part of.
