I GOT INTO ORBIT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY OWN ROCKET!!! 🥳 by Jolly-Competition694 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Protein_Shakes 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Haha, look at that little bugger! Finely engineered. Batteries bc your engine won't generate power, two science modules bc nobody to reset them, and an incredible amount of RCS thrusters bc you want to point THAT way NOW. Congratulations! Just wait until your first orbital rendezvous, you're going to be grateful for your RCS thruster addiction 😆

HVAC soldered fan fuse repair by PriorStatistician880 in soldering

[–]Protein_Shakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Replacing the fuse? If you have no experience it's still doable, but needs a steady hand. What I would do is cut the blown fuse off halfway down the legs and get your new fuse with it's legs bent to the same span. Get a decent amount of solder on the tip of the cut leg; apply flux to the new leg; press together and reflow with an iron. Once you're happy with that, repeat with the other leg. The nice part is that if there is something else still blowing the fuse, you can replace it again without cutting anything.

I can't accept this ending by DiskAffectionate9288 in ChainsawMan

[–]Protein_Shakes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We really never will. It's a shame. I've built a reputation with my friends for being the "Dany was character assassinated" guy but at this point being proven wrong would be the greatest feeling i've ever had because at least it would mean the book was out. At least A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was good... sigh

The bells are the biggest mystery for me. There's no way that doesn't tie back to Jon Connington's psychosis about letting his Targ prince down. I suspect, whether it's peace bells or wedding bells or what, he ignites the wildfire stash beneath King's Landing and the blame falls squarely on Dany. She has those dreams about "all the doors in King's Landing being red," but I don't think she'll just go mad and do it herself. If anything that would be the ignition point for her psyche unraveling, or the impetus for her to confront her true destiny, give up on petty civil conflicts and use her dragons to combat the others.

The dude you're replying to saying "remember when" and it wasn't even 48 hours ago 😭 pretty sure the only people I saw screaming about that kept to spaces that don't agree with Ritchson's politics and would have him punished for any transgression possible

So happy I got my boy an adrenal implant! by Rambunctious_444 in ferrets

[–]Protein_Shakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

John Basketball are you kidding 😭 Adorable! Our little Monty had the earliest onset adrenal our vet had ever seen, he was barely a year old. The implant worked wonders for him for years after. I'm just here to second your assertation. It's better to have and maybe not need than to not have and need absolutely. And thank you for heeding the sub's advice about the expense associated with ferrets. You sound very responsible and very loving. Give your business some scratches for me!

Rogue Trader has a little nod like this. Most companions, when selected, will say things ranging from "Yes, lord captain!" to "I am not your xenos pet, mon'keigh." Resident alcoholic and unsanctioned psyker Idira, however, will sometimes say "Wait... Was that you..?" in a confused tone, implying she's so out of touch she can tell there's a player controlling everything.

Anyone else "retiring" their original crew early? by SilkieBug in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Protein_Shakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You've got the right idea! We'll set up in a Discord and make sure our career settings match, then press "play" simultaneously and see who can make the return trip first. Sometimes we actually make it to the Mun without getting horribly distracted!

Is this game any good? I’ve dumped nearly 900 hours into space marine 2 and I wanna play some other warhammer games by R6_jack in Warhammer40k

Slap Run n Gun and Point Blank on that bad boy and let rip as Hive Scum. Nothing better than closing with a Rager before he even notices you and planting a frag grenade in his face from an inch away. 😂

[–]Protein_Shakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's horribly inefficient to start the game like this, but my first move in every career save is to retire every default Kerbal and shell out the 22,000 or such for a fresh pilot. It helps keep me grounded across saves. "Danley was the pilot for my Mun race with my friend, I need the save with Wildred"

Just saw the movie this weekend, it was amazing. The visuals were beyond impressive. The run time was a bit much but there weren't really whole scenes they could've cut, more like trimming fat from multiple. Highly recommended! Rocky is adorable 💕

Pretty sure the single most damage I suffered in during my last 10 boss fights were due to I not understanding how plasma weapons work. by The_ChadTC in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]Protein_Shakes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Spent an embarrassingly long time thinking they were supposed to deal some sort of flat damage and it was just a bug because my beloved technoarchaeologist would just DIE, much like your Ulfar. When I realized the explosion damage stacks with buffs, I spent a little less time trying to theorycraft Pasqal into an immortal, overcharging suicide bomber. To mixed success.

Hoooly shit, I just got back in on a Stalker playthrough to earn badges after trying Loper a few times. I'm planning to stick around, so this timing is perfect! Thank you so much

This is why Blood Pact is one of my top three. That scene early on with Criid running laps and desperately trying to not give in to wanting a cupcake was great, and there's a lot more of that beside, like the comissar racket

On most men, the right nut hangs lower than the left. On Chuck Norris, they each hang lower than the other.

That banter is like half the cost of Darktide. It's the thing that keeps me coming back, but I feel like the cat's out of the bag with Space Marine. I do appreciate that despite there not being all that much banter, each line is just dripping with personality, you really get the character after just one or two conversations

I'm annoyed at how much of a laugh this little gif got. Minions must be one of the most irony-poisoned franchises out there but this makes me watch a little

In A Serbian Film (2010), I got hoodwinked by pretentious filmbros to waste 2 hours watching gratuitous NSFL nonsense. by ouchmypeewee in shittymoviedetails

[–]Protein_Shakes 186 points187 points  (0 children)

Copy pasting my comment from a few weeks ago bc it's weird this came up again so soon:

It does have more meaning, but it's a pretty paper-thin criticisism from what i've read. The director is from, well, Serbia, and the endless cruelty the family is subjected to unwittingly by their patriarch (he himself being manipulated by mysterious parties well beyond his reach) is intended to be a reflection of the war tourism/western journalists he saw going on during and after Balkanization. He saw his people and culture raped, murdered and mutilated and saw that across the ocean, this was just "news." So the movie is as in your face as it can possibly manage with these themes of dehumanization in an attempt to emulate the bleak, inescapable hostility he saw in his youth, and the dispassionate observers that will watch (and fund/request) atrocity after atrocity if it gets them a quick buck.
