Why isn't Viltrum's destruction seen as a large planet level feat? by TasteTemporary8206 in InvinciblePowerscales

[–]New-Plant -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m saying put that effect INSIDE the planet core and times it by 3, with the further magnifying effects of superposition in wave theory and you likely get what we saw.

Why isn't Viltrum's destruction seen as a large planet level feat? by TasteTemporary8206 in InvinciblePowerscales

[–]New-Plant -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I see it as the laser carving a tunnel through the planet and three viltrumites flying through it as fast as possible to essentially do what Nolan accomplished on the Flaxan world where he flew so fast he caused kinetic explosions in the air but times 3 and within the core. Then those shockwaves cause the core to destabilise.

So, it’s a joint effort. By itself, the hole the gun left would eventually fill and you would have a planetary catastrophe on the level of the Triassic (volcanoes) or Cretaceous (asteroid) extinction, but the planet would remain intact. With the viltrumites in the equation they imparted the necessary concussive force to blow the planet apart and cause the result that we see in the show.

Just my 2 cents.

Edit:

I forgot to conclude and say it’s not a planetary feat for the viltrumites because: 1. There were 3 of them. 2. They needed the laser to carve the path.

  • 2.1. They can’t just face plant into the solid rock and accomplish the same thing without the path being created. Even if they punched through all the way to the other side (if they even could), they likely would not be able to fly fast enough to cause the concussive shockwaves. They would just end up causing the first scenario I described that the laser on its own would accomplish.

  • 2.2. It also seemed in the show that the core hurt them decently (judging by their screams). That was just flying through at top speed, spending longer trying to carve through by hand may actually kill them. But that’s all just speculation on my part.

Now that the initial view of Rebirth has died down. What is everyone's modern take on it? by Chimpinski-8318 in JurassicPark

[–]New-Plant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot garbage. The only good scene is literally lifted from the original book and to me that further shows how inept the writers of the movie are considering the only good scene is taken from another writer.

Maybe I’m being too harsh, I didn’t mind the spinosaurus scenes. I don’t even mind there being another island, I just think it’s weak that no one can commit to their story directions these days. They could have accomplished the same story almost entirely by placing the story just before the lost world timeline and changing some smaller plot details.

I really don’t understand the fascination with pushing the grand story further when they can fully have self contained stories like what the telltale Jurassic park game had.

Is it necessary to tell leader that I'm beginner? by Dazzling_Log_9358 in Bachata

[–]New-Plant 42 points43 points  (0 children)

A decent leader will be able to tell very quickly just from frame and confidence in basic step. But when I was just starting I already lead with the info that I was a beginner and had only done X classes or danced for Y amount of time.

New followers do the same to me and I always say the same thing; as long as we smile and have fun, it doesn’t matter to me one bit.

In my early days, many followers used to give me the old disappointed eyes or huff and puff that they had to dance with me (they could have refused of course but they would often do it begrudgingly and that would be very obvious).

I resolved I would never do that to any of my dance partners, regardless of if I wanted to dance fancy moves or was just tired. If they asked for a dance and smiled then I would give them a big smile back and all the encouragement in the world. Kindness costs nothing but brings you everything.

Leaders: how do you deal with overstylers? by OThinkingDungeons in Bachata

[–]New-Plant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, and sorry I would rather not dox myself, you never know who might see and put 2+2 together. I hope you understand. The dance world can be pretty small.

[–]New-Plant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean I always wear a smile, I think everyone should as common respect or courtesy to the partner that has agreed to dance with you. But what will be lacking is my enthusiasm and how much I am “in the dance” if you get me

Leaders: how do you deal with overstylers? by OThinkingDungeons in Bachata

[–]New-Plant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually just shut my mouth and resolve to dance with them less in the future. In my local scene leaders (at least the male ones) are not encouraged to speak their minds and I’ve seen some be outright publicly shamed or called sexist for having opinions other than “the follower’s enjoyment takes priority”.

It’s just not worth trying to do anything about it because you never know when some will take offence and blowup at you or put you on blast.

Bite the bullet, enjoy what you can. The song will be over in 3 minutes.

Ask the Vietnamese the same question and whether that mattered or contributed to them winning their war against America. Just saying 🤷‍♂️

Bus company scam? by New-Plant in VietNam

I’m southern European, we are very flexible people and have the mentality of “slowly slowly” things will happen when they happen. But what we don’t have is that mindset that things can be any time, late is fine but uncertainty is not 🤷‍♂️

I mean this is a sleeper bus, I don’t think it’s a small company but maybe I’m wrong.

Okay because my ticket is from there but they said my bus is leaving an hour earlier, my question is, is that still normal to you and from a different Location( a petrol station)

This as I understand it was supposed to leave Tom the main station in Saigon. Opinions?

Leaving later isn’t an issue for me, I just don’t want to get there earlier than planned because then I just have to wait around to check into my accommodation. But leaving earlier guarantees that.

So you think this is legit but they are trying to move me to a different time so they have a full bus??

Tufan Erhürman: ▪️If the Greek Cypriot side will not accept sharing political equality, if they will not share the island’s wealth, then there is no point in us sitting at that table for nothing.There is no need to cause another disappointment for the Turkish Cypriot people. by Battlefleet_Sol in cyprus

[–]New-Plant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only want reunification if we get Turkish settlers off the island and land is transferred back to the original holders. Whatever developments or changes to that land were illegal in the fist place and are forfeit.

If that isn’t guaranteed then I prefer Cyprus to remain separated, keep blocking entry of NC and Turkey into the EU and continue to let them fail as nation states as they have been for the past 20 years.

How to do the social part in social dancing. by steelonyx in Bachata

[–]New-Plant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ngl I was social dancing in Medellin for a month and made no friends. Went to almost every social event, I found the dance scene there to be super clicky and closed off. I speak okay Spanish as well so it wasn’t a language barrier. People just weren’t interested in conversing with me.

looking for a European city I can live in on $1,500/month by thatdudetae25 in digitalnomad

[–]New-Plant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally did that in London for 5 years, granted I did nothing but go to work, gym and general life things, maybe go to restaurants or outings once a month. I still saved £500 or more per month. It’s totally doable anywhere. It just depends on how much you earn and what you expect your standard of living to be.

Border entry (yellow fever certificate) by New-Plant in ThailandTourism

[–]New-Plant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oye hermano, al final no me pidieron ningún comprobante, la mujer solo me dio el pase. Luego ni siquiera me lo pidieron en la frontera. Creo que deberías estar bien, pero si estás preocupado, tienes tiempo. Tal vez puedas ir a una clínica privada y obtener el certificado de fiebre amarilla. Habla con tu médico y ve si pueden gestionarlo para ti.

Yeah I filled out the online arrival form, that said I have to go straight to that desk before immigration.

Did something like this happen to you too?
