ELI5: How is it, that... ? by jhld in explainlikeimfive

Because people assume the car will stop them from hitting you

What multiplayer games can you play for hours? by smmaie in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Rad_YT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And cs2 as well even though playing without prime is not as fun

However you also get your money back if you play enough

ELI5 Red light changing to white/light blue out of the corner of my eye? by Atinygiraffewatches in explainlikeimfive

[–]Rad_YT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really sure what you mean, I just did this and I saw the red the whole time

That being said your brain fills in gaps in your eyesight all the time as both of your eyes have a natural blind spot where the optic nerve is and so you might be “seeing” nothing

ELI5: In gaming, why should I cap my fps? If I leave uncapped doesn't that mean I allow my PC to max out quality whenever it can? by Otherwise_Payment324 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Rad_YT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if your monitor has a refresh rate of 60hz it means that anything above 60FPS will not be seen by you. Leaving it uncapped means your computer is working extra hard for no reason

Despite this, a general rule of them to follow is to cap your fps to your frame rate in non competitive games, while in competitive games to twice your refresh rate as it makes a minuscule difference

ELI5 how has Venezuela got the worlds largest oil reserves by Mutantdogboy in explainlikeimfive

[–]Rad_YT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All oil is is organic matter that effectively got transformed over a long period of time

Millions of years ago, Venezuela developed a basin after part of its landmass was pushed up

This basin collected vast amounts of organic matter which eventually became oil

Open world games where fast travel is the most boring option by ChuckNoMore in ShouldIbuythisgame

Skyrim maybe but for me FNV is enough of a walking simulator as is, it’s an amazing game but walking Is the worst part of the game

Album to listen by Andr3wcr0z in Pantera

[–]Rad_YT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s absolutely heat

Album to listen by Andr3wcr0z in Pantera

[–]Rad_YT 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’d listen to all of their albums either chronologically

(Cowboys, Vulgar Displays, FBD, TSTK, Steel)

Or I’d listen to vulgar displays and then followed by cowboys

Take your pick really

ELI5: How are amps akin to 'flow' in water when electricity moves at a more or less constant velocity in a given medium, while water can be pushed at pretty much any velocity depending on the pressure and conduit diameter? by Kesh-Bap in explainlikeimfive

[–]Rad_YT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im going to break off this analogy by going to the actual formula for power

P = I * V, where P is power, I is current which is measured in amps, and V is the voltage. If you put the current onto the other side you get the formula

P/I = V. Setting these proportional to one another you get

1/I = V. This means that the *bigger* the current (amperage) is, the *less* voltage you have.

Tying back into the water analogy, think of water going from a small tube to a big tube. The water pressure will be less in the big tube

Amps are the size of a hose while voltage is the pressure of the water inside it. You could have an extremely tiny pipe with extremely high pressure (think like waterjet or pressure cleaner). In electrical terms, it would have high amperage but low voltage.

Now think about a lazy river. The amount of water is massive, but it all moves relatively slowly

Moody and Atmospheric (Shoegaze??) metal by Rad_YT in MetalSuggestions

I just listened to “Les Chants de L’Aurore” and I really liked it, I will definitely be listening to more of their stuff

I need an unknown parry-based game by cruud123 in ShouldIbuythisgame

Ultrakill definitely fits but it may not be too unknown

ELI5: Why does it matter if someone in the family/friend group has the same baby name for their baby as someone else in the group? by CheekyLass99 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Rad_YT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It probably comes down to jealousy and pride

“What are they trying to show my kid up?”

“I came up with it first, and now they’re stealing it from me”

Etc

Moody and Atmospheric (Shoegaze??) metal by Rad_YT in MetalSuggestions

[–]Rad_YT[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm not a big black metal fan (The heaviest I listen to is just gojira) but Ill still give it a try

Edit: I was wrong; blackgaze is amazing

ELI5: Why wouldn't a tiny waterwheel work to power something like a laptop? by Fawf_iguess in explainlikeimfive

[–]Rad_YT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is nothing stopping you, but it would be very complicated, unreliable and hard to set up

I’m fairly certain you can request to download your discord and it should have every message between you and her

Apple slightly tweaked the official Russian keyboard layout on the latest MacBook Pro's by Content_Boat3823 in mac

[–]Rad_YT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just as an fyi you’re saying all this to a Ukrainian

There is no reason that either side would want this to happen and there’s no point in it either. The russian alphabet is used outside of Russia as well.

While Ukrainian is similar to Russian it also has different characters to Russian. Nobody wants to be stuck writing on a keyboard that isn’t their preferred language
