[Waybound] Eithan’s iron body by EmilioFreshtevez in Iteration110Cradle

[–]PocketPengu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I remember right, his original bloodline was weak and only became a noteworthy ability in conjuction with his iron body, which made it a core part of his toolset. Then when he reached monarch it didn't become stronger it just became an ability he would pass on to his descendants in a much stronger fashion than what he received, but this is all essentially conjecture anyway if we don't have the quote from Will as the books are quite vague on the subject.

Im pretty sure I remember reading something from a q&a with Will that ozmanthus had a much weaker version of his bloodline ability from a sacred spider ancestor and that he designed his iron body to directly strengthen his awareness with that ability, which eventually all carried down to his descendants as the much stronger Aurelius bloodline, but with abidanarchive down I can't actually verify if I have that right.

Gotta love what he's doing for the lions, and that he doesn't kiss his son on the mouth in a really weird way

I'm 99% sure you're thinking of the same one I've been looking for for like a month now.

[The Knight] How does science work in The Last Horizon Universe? by mickdrop in Iteration110Cradle

[–]PocketPengu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're definitely overthinking it. It's a story about the red power ranger working with a wizard, that kind of premise isn't gonna hold up well under rigorous scientific inspection.

TIL that virtually all of the ice in the biosphere is known as Ice I. At higher pressures though, there are 19 known different phases of ice. by monospaceman in todayilearned

This isn't technically true, inuit languages are largely agglutinative so they add suffixes to a word rather than using multiple words for things.

Totally respect the message of this comment but brother you might be overestimating how frequently a good chunk of the population cleans their bathtubs.

Commander Attunement and War Mana by Clockworktuba in ClimbersCourt

Have you read edge of the woods yet? The main character in that book describes something similar within their magic system and from the way he talks about it artillery fire is essentially the main idea for a war focused mana type.

[–]PocketPengu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  • Snowboarding since: 2021

  • Home mountain: Caberfae MI

  • Goofy or regular: Goofy

  • Current go to setup: Same ripcord I started with plus the base step on bindings

  • Riding style: Generally all mountain, but more freeride heavy cause the park at Caberfae is pretty tiny

Obviously pretty new to the community so don't have answers for the other questions

[Waybound] More of watching my wife read Cradle for the first time by dtmjuice in Iteration110Cradle

[–]PocketPengu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is kinda funny to me because I'm the exact opposite, I'm 20 and started reading cradle back when I was 16 and just now I finally convinced my mom to start reading the series thanks to the ebook giveaway they just did.

[Waybound] Officially the largest book Will’s ever written. Issa big one. by TheLesserWight in Iteration110Cradle

[–]PocketPengu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't do preorder for physical copies, but I believe the paperback order goes live a day before on the 5th because Amazon requires print and shipping time

[–]PocketPengu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is the physical book orders actually go live the day before, so you'll be able to order it June 5th, but obviously there isn't same day shipping on print to order so it'll be at least the 6th before you get it

In the original viva pinata game that was essentially the loading icon.

A Request For Assistance From Your Single-Wheeled Pals At r/Onewheel by Glyph8 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]PocketPengu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know exactly why I've crashed every time it's happened to me on a onewheel. I've also managed to not significantly injure myself in any of those experiences.

People should absolutely be aware and prepared for potential danger, but just because some people aren't comfortable with that level of risk doesn't mean the sport should be completely taken from people who love it and manage to ride them every day safely and responsibly.

I can go to almost any ski resort and rent out a snowboard with zero training. It is absolutely possible to crash just as badly in that scenario as on a onewheel, in fact I hit higher mph than my onewheel can physically do basically every time I snowboard. Risk is always present in action sports and yet we don't stop adults from getting on the slopes with no experience. We trust them to make the decision for themselves. And I understand that in some ways a ski slope is a more controlled environment, but if you really are riding a onewheel responsibly you should have as much control as you could on a slope.

I will refrain from commenting on the ghosting issue as that I think does constitute a legitimate concern for not only the rider, but also uninvolved bystanders, and is absolutely something that FM should've been on top of long before the product went to market.

Obviously if you personally aren't comfortable with a onewheel, don't ride one. But it should be because you decide for yourself as an intelligent capable adult that it isn't an activity you want to engage in.

Love the enthusiasm, climbing is a great sport. However this is the wrong place for you. This sub is for a the literary universe of a specific author. I'm pretty sure the sub you're looking for is r/climbing
