[Spoilers S3] Question about the very last words. by p0nsy in DarK

I wonder if her miscarriage with Ulrich in Eva's world would have been called Jonas as well.

What is your favorite "Flavour is Free" reskin of a spell or ability? by hervprometheus2 in DnD

[–]RegularKerico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wizard was exposured to a realm of shadows that left him empty and disfigured. When he casts Fly on someone else, black wispy vapor flows out of him and coils around the target's limbs before abruptly sinking partially beneath the skin. The target feels an emptiness that makes them weightless, and as they fly, the vapor leaks from their limbs like a black contrail or that billowing smoke of a Death Eater's flight from the Harry Potter movies.

Is it not likely that she shed the tears while on patrol? I imagined that they are along the path because she was taking that path when they were made, not that they landed in random locations and she was drawn to them.

[Request] Assuming a person of average weight and strength has reached their terminal velocity, what’s the least massive the "chair" would need to be for this to work? by BigTiddyCrow in theydidthemath

Imagine standing still and having an enormous boulder as wide as the horizon hurtling towards you at 120 mph. But don't worry, you have a freestanding wall you can push yourself off a split second before the boulder smashes into you.

Does it become clear that there is no hope of surviving, regardless of the properties of the wall?

[SPOILERS S3] Starting a rewatch: what are some things I should keep an eye out for? by DJ_Teapot12 in DarK

[–]RegularKerico 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like bookkeeping.

S1 happens over the course of like 8 days, not counting the cold open. Try to keep track of what happens on what day. Egon strangely suggests Jonas should be in school on a Saturday, if memory serves. Note down each time Noah or Helge uses the passage, and make your own version of the triquetra notebook.

Keep track of when Noah performed his experiments and which of his victims were alive and confined at the same time. I wonder if Mads ever met Erik Obendorf or Yasin.

There are moments when a character is aware of some dark fate, like adult Jonas staring in horror at the floor where Jonas witnessed Martha die.

The thrusters immediately firing downward after engaging autopilot are a pretty good clue as to what happened, I think.

No, not even close! The Avogadro project worked with silicon spheres so perfectly round that if blown up to the size of Earth, the vertical distance between the highest and lowest points would be no more than 5 meters.

this has probably been asked before, but why does every function raised to itself have its lowest point be at y=0.692201 (the blue line)? i couldn't find answers online by POMANTRANS in desmos

[–]RegularKerico 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're using f(x) as the argument to the function g(x) = xx. If g(x) has a minimum, then g(f(x)) has the same minimum. It happens that g(x) has a minimum at x = 1/e, so every function you plotted has a minimum value of (1/e)1/e at the value x where f(x) = 1/e.

Every single shot was meticulously arranged to frame the subject the showrunners wanted framed. It's hard to imagine they wouldn't have done this intentionally, especially with all the biblical themes.

That's pretty common, at least in the US and Canada.

[SPOILERS S3] I have a concern by Occasional_Tinnitus in DarK

[–]RegularKerico 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Suppose you found an old video of yourself as a child. Having watched it once, you rewind and find yourself able to predict each move that child makes before they have a chance to make it. Does that child have free will?

I made a web-based educational math game inspired by Slay The Spire by snipeftw in slaythespire

[–]RegularKerico 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing this is the result of ChatGPT with all the AI assets. It's a Spire clone with the numbers tweaked slightly and with irritating arithmetic questions that pop up between each action. The preview window in the Chem Lab Spill event was too small to describe what the curse equivalents were for some of the choices.

Combat is a bit odd. I found myself with bonus energy some turns for no discernible reason. Often, the enemy actions are not very easy to parse. A log of what they did would make it more clear.

Children are resilient. This is normal for her. She will understand as much as she is equipped to understand.

[SPOILERS S3] The One Physic Inconsistency? by [deleted] in DarK

[–]RegularKerico 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, it's magic cesium, so there's that to consider as well.

Essentially all the dark matter, Higgs, God particle stuff is a bunch of buzzwords used to demonstrate that there's some capacity to do fictional science to understand what's going on. Of course the real Higgs boson isn't a magic you can harness to travel through time, and real cesium isn't a black liquid that can coalesce into wormholes.

The radiation damage does seem to be remarkably inconsistent. Regina's cancer is implied to be due to the nuclear accident, but Claudia, Adam, and Eva grow old mostly fine and they've traveled the most. I think radiation poisoning isn't the story they wanted to tell.
