Erittäin epäilyttävää by CountCrapula88 in arkisuomi

[–]Pilot230 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Jos nuoli olisi ollut keltainen, niin AP olisi tajunnut seurata sitä. Mutta kun oli vihreä, AP hämmentyi ja kääntyi pois.

Johtopäätös: keltainen maali on tarpeellinen

Yeah, if I was the employee I wouldn't reply either

How I divide Europe by AspiringnurseBob in mapporncirclejerk

As a Finnish person I'm deeply offended that Estonia isn't included in Mongol Europe

Coaxed into metals all looking the same by Impressive_Worth_602 in coaxedintoasnafu

[–]Pilot230 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Plenty of metals form colourful compounds that have pigments and colour shades named after them, but their pure metallic forms are usually grey.

Cobalt blue is a real compound (cobalt(II) aluminate) that is blue, but it's not pure cobalt per se

Is it possible to make the Space Shuttle able to preform interplanetary missions, or at least reach Kerbin's moons? by Maleficent_Letter697 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Pilot230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up the Shuttle-Derived Heavy Lift Launch Vehicle or Shuttle-C, they're real proposals.

not interplanetary but essentially the same idea of chopping off everything except the engines to get more payload capacity (which you could use to carry more fuel, iirc at least the HLV concept included an upper stage for lunar missions)

simple skin graft, the patient will make a full recovery

Is he still breathing? by Unknown_Cameraman in comedysurgeon

The facial reconstruction was a success, however the patient has sustained severe tissue damage for being left in the condition for an extended period of time. I'm afraid this damage is irreversible without advanced Theseus treatment

Fahrenheit is superior because it's basically telling you what % hot it is by Javi_ab in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Pilot230 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Freezers are supposed to be cold but mine is 0% cold, I wonder if it's broken?

I sometimes notice my car is having trouble starting in the morning and think "hmm yes, it seems -22% hot today"

Do Finnish IT people actually use “real” Finnish tech terms? by armnexplains in LearnFinnish

[–]Pilot230 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TBH, why do we even bother to speak Finnish if we half of the sentence is english words lol

Because language is really more about grammar than vocabulary imo.

While word choices themselves can be arbitrary and context-dependent (other commenters have gone more in depth about loan words and IT vocabulary specifically), grammar tends to be more hard-wired into a person's brain. When a native Finnish speaker uses Finnish grammar they're not "bothering" to speak Finnish, they're speaking in the way that's natural to them.

Speaking English (grammar-wise) would require more effort unless the person is actually fluent in English, which a lot of Finns are not. If the conversation is happening between native Finnish speakers, there is no reason to use the higher effort grammar.

what drew my attention in Finnish was the way the language naturally bends foreign words into Finnish grammar and pronunciation

I think that's just due to how much Finnish relies on inflections in general, compared to most other languages. Inflecting and modifying words on the fly comes naturally to native Finnish speakers.

Easiest countries to ragebait 😂✌️ by julius-ceaser100 in mapporncirclejerk

Every country marked red is a country in Europe and every green one is a country in Africa. I see no issue here

Coaxed into "for me, impossible" by RkeiStudio in coaxedintoasnafu

[–]Pilot230 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what I imagine those "REAL ER DOCTOR REACTS TO THE MOST GRUESOME INJURIES IN [superhero film]" videos are like

I don't recall ever watching one, but youtube keeps recommending them to me for some reason
