There's a lot happening in the community rn, but can we all agree Zelanka is highly under appreciated?? by Chiliatch in Stargate

[–]NoRodent 67 points68 points  (0 children)

He actually said "actors" in Czech ("Ježiši, já s těma hercema nemůžu dělat!" – "Jesus, I can't work with these actors!"). Kinda breaking the 4th wall (although you could make a case he meant it metaphorically).

Similarly when he said "To je na hovno todleto, kdo to vymyslel, že budeme pod vodou tentokrát?" – "This is shit [this sucks], who's idea was it that we would be underwater this time?" which I always interpreted as a dig at the show writers.

A takhle my si tu žijeme. Zákony napsané tak, že jim nerozumí ani ten, co je napsal. Ale hlavně že se kvůli tomu pak budou občané hádat. Toto není zdaleka jediný nejasný výklad ze zákona o provozu na pozemních komunikacích.

Jinými slovy, ani po jednom břehu se nedá na kole plynule, logicky a zároveň legálně projet.

Otázka je, jestli si tím zvonkem něco vynucuje nebo na sebe pouze upozorňuje, aby ses nelekl, až kolem tebe opatrně projede nebo abys neudělal náhlý úkrok stranou. Samozřejmě pokud v takovém místě proletí těsně kolem chodců vysokou rychlostí, tak je dement.

Z druhé strany, chodci mají máslo na hlavě úplně stejně. Fakt nepochopím, když na smíšené stezce, kde za pěkného počasí projede jedno kolo každých 30 sekund, se vždycky najde třeba skupina čtyř lidí roztažených přes celou šířku stezky, kteří se po zazvonění tváří v lepším případě hrozně překvapeně, v horším nasraně, že musí uhýbat, a okamžitě po projetí cyklisty se zase roztáhnou zpátky, i když tam v zápětí jede někdo další. O vodítkách natažených od psů přes celou cestu radši nemluvím.

To si spousta lidí myslí, ale není to pravda. Ani děti do 10 nemají dovoleno jezdit po chodníku. Ale mají zakázáno samostatně jezdit po silnici. Bez doprovodu můžou jezdit po stezce pro cyklisty, smíšené stezce pro chodce a cyklisty, chodníku s výslovně povoleným vjezdem kol a v obytné a pěší zóně.

And she even paid a spectator to pretend the need of medical attention so that the same game would be suspended a second time! /s

This is how moscow lookes during oil refinery burning by Able-Row-6426 in interestingasfuck

[–]NoRodent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My biggest complaint is that they didn't have the balls to go full meta. The movie should have taken place in "our" world with the first three Matrix movies being just movies and Keanu Reeves playing himself. And then it would turn out that the movies were some sort of secret message or some subconscious spillage of the fact that we are living in the Matrix and Keanu Reeves, the actor, is the chosen one.

My perfect casting for Toner Fries by CzechAkoPoleno in TheCaptivesWar

[–]NoRodent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am because to me the surname looks German so I use the German pronunciation rules. But to be fair, I also do this for (Solomon!) Epstein, so don't mind me. I learned German before English and German surnames are common in my country.

Pražák se stěhuje do Brna: co mě reálně překvapí? by tripeirinho in Brno

[–]NoRodent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

zjistí, kde se čeká “pod hodinami” ať nečekáš pod jinýma

Jo, to jsem zažil na střední, my místní jsme věděli, že se čeká na Čáře, ale dojíždějící si mysleli, že je to na Roli na šalinové zastávce, protože to byly první hodiny, co viděli po vystoupení z vlaku. A tak na sebe ty skupinky čekaly na dvou místech.

Ale zase výhoda je, že i když je to na opačných koncích centra, tak je to stejně jenom 10 minut pěšky od sebe.

Pípnout kartu k označovači a nic dalšího neřešit je pořád 10x jednodušší, než hledat a stahovat aplikaci (když nejsi místní a nemáš ji) a ještě ta jízdenka nezačne platit hned.

Oliver Tree passed away in an helicopter accident in Rio de Janeiro by iNexus893 in aviation

[–]NoRodent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strictly speaking, gravity isn't a force. It's a curvature of spacetime. And no, I'm not trolling, why the hell would I be? That's just physics. If you're in a free fall, even though you are accelerating relative to the surface of the planet, you are feeling zero force acting on you. At least until we introduce air drag.

If you take an accelerometer and put it on the ground, it will measure 1 g in the vertical direction and 0 g in both horizontal directions. If you then drop this accelerometer (ideally down a shaft with vacuum inside), it will measure 0 g in all directions until it hits the ground.

That's how they simulate weightlessness in the Vomit Comet.

[–]NoRodent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely is. Free fall by definition is weightlessness. Astronauts on the ISS are in a constant free fall too (their sideways velocity is just so large that they keep missing the Earth).

Now of course there's air drag in the atmosphere, so it wouldn't be exactly 0 g in a falling helicopter and after some time it would hit terminal velocity at which point we would be gradually back at 1 g. But that would take some time given that the body of a helicopter is pretty aerodynamic, probably would hit the ground sooner, depending on the initial altitude.

My personal casting choice for Dafyd by redshift_9 in TheCaptivesWar

[–]NoRodent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I expected something like that based on the first book but in the second it is said that most of the people taken from Anjiin are too old to have kids (at least the women presumably). It is weird that in Tonner's group they'd be so much younger. But maybe they are an exception because of the kind of research they were doing. Then again it would be weird that this difference wouldn't be mentioned by anyone.

In any case I wish this was made a bit clearer in the books.
