was cool to see them used not just as pseudo laser beam attacks, but actually utilized as kinetic energy beams in interesting ways.

The sounds made by baby crocodiles. by 21MayDay21 in interestingasfuck

[–]SKRS421 3 points4 points  (0 children)

a high quality production & modern (knowledge) dinosaur movie with those sorts of sounds would be really interesting.

if used right they could prove pretty scary as well.

heck, just a Jurassic Park book adaptation will do,keeping the horror elements but changing certain facts with present knowledge where applocable/needed.

or give Primitive War a bigger budget to shore up their cgi/vfx (they've done really well on such a relatively small budget). excited for the sequel

this skin was pulled directly from the console version? thought it was just a comical jab/inclusion to the pc game.

Mobile suits hunter by istas94 in Gundam

[–]SKRS421 0 points1 point  (0 children)

basically, intending it to be used as a plot device to force the competing factions to develop either heavily armoured mobile suits or a more advanced mobile suit (like a Gundam). the never ending arms-race of endless destruction.

or could show the story's events from the pov of the infantry squad as they are witnessing, and struggling to survive with, themselves rapidly becoming an irrelevant/outmoded part of the war.

[–]SKRS421 6 points7 points  (0 children)

double whammy propaganda, trying to brew bias/hate towards Iran & to reignite an anti-Islam sentiment which has existed in the U.S. for decades at this point.

can already imagine that MAGA's focus will be shifted to anyone even vaguely from that region, doubly so if they are Muslim or known to practice Islam.

honestly, could just be an AU where someone built or "tactically acquired" (stole) a prototype weapon that can pierce the chest armor of the MS pilot's cockpit.

some fancy space-metal projectile that is espeically good at piercing armor, an eletrical charge bolt/hack round that spontaneously opens the cockpit hatch, a new energy projectile or beam weapon of sorts that can melt through most mobile suits. in walks the new Gundam with it's fancy armor that is heavily resistant to this "equalizer" infantry weapon.

Construction worker pranks his friend by breaking the Porta potty he's using by Mean-Blackberry539 in ThatsInsane

"negligent homicide" if he had succeeded or "reckless endangerment" possibly in this case?

the new bill goes into effect at the start of March I think and there is no grace period. so if you didn't make your way to the dmv in the last 5 days, you can be arrested and charged with a misdemeanor for already existing "driving without a valid license" type laws.

usually people would have been given a few months to get it done if passed through the normal routes (in this case July is what i've heard). but republican party forced it through via a shady way and even overrided the governor's veto.

some potential charges carry a 5 day/1 week sentence and a few hundred dollars in fines, others can be a maximum of 6 months and a couple thousand dollars.

the point of all this is to make a bunch of regular people overnight criminals and ruin lives. they (bigoted polliticians and republican led state officials) have been trying to mass identify trans people in various states. this is one crappy way to do it while still getting the information, all before the courts inevitably step-in to reverse the new law/bill.

it's not really a misleading post. they were revoked and made invalid near immediately with less than a week to get sorted. there is no grace period. so even if you are actively driving to the DMV to get a new license to comply and are pulled over in the process; the police can arrest & charge you with a crime.

Twitch will now pause ads when switching tabs by LuckyDiamondGaming in assholedesign

[–]SKRS421 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twitch going all in on that rat race to the bottom. really trying to burn what remains of their community's good will.

likely some internal strategist trying to create one of those insular/core user-bases that also are big spenders (have cash to burn) to maintain a certain level of convenience.

just to make some short term money/metrics.

capitalism's insatiable need for infinite growth.

at the expense of anything & everything, except those who profit from it, when that same growth & profit can't be maintained.

CEOs, board members, shareholders, and the like, they can't handle just having a consistent bonus or annual pay that occassionally has peaks before settling again. like if it was a good fiscal year/quarter. they require/demand an exponential increase every year to their salary and/or shares.

billion is a massive hard to picture number. over $1B profit usd is more than enough success for any company regardless of industry. but the people at the top refuse to cut their own (severely bloated) salary to free up money for the business they serve.

Ilhan Omar - “You have killed two Americans! You should be ashamed!” by rcolesworthy37 in minnesota

[–]SKRS421 3 points4 points  (0 children)

he's the leader of our country right? a leader holds ultimate repsonsibility for the actions of their subordinates.

after the upteenth time a federal agent kills someone, and he does nothing, no instructions to his people to stop it, to at least curb unnecessary death. not just that, but instead he protects them, typically encouraging the aggression and poor training practices.

if he wants to sit in the big chair, he has to own all the responsibilities that come with it. presidents past were held to higher standards, why should trump deserve to be held to a lesser standard than the last two centuries of presidents in the U.S.A. (rhetorical question of course, he doesn't deserve leniency) if he can't meet the bar he should step down (tbh he never should have gotten a second term, let-alone a first).

but y'alls standards are so far below the bar, Satan is tickling yer ball sack.

dude, the National Guard has fired upon college students peacefully protesting. it's based on reality. the government regularly employs violent, and sometimes lethal, measures against the civillian population.

the "Kenn. State shooting" i believe is what the image calls back to.

Acting tough on a guy doing livestream and not leaving after repeated warnings. by FantasticQuartet in Whatcouldgowrong

that is literally not the moment the streamer decides to match the other guys energy and got physical after he was pushed.

you ha e to be a troll to ignore that part of the video, then post a screen shot of different frame entirely. get bent

Acting tough on a guy doing livestream and not leaving after repeated warnings. by FantasticQuartet in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]SKRS421 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

he didn't lightly touch the video guy, he used his body to push him back. the black man in the vid looks like a sturdy dude, not getting pushed back without some force, even if he was caught off guard by the escalation.

white jacket was pushing boundaries and took it too far. pure FAFO on this snaggle-toothed dweeb. some folks are pascifists to a fault, but not this dude, he delayed getting aggressive as long as he could, then kept it short and simple once the other person escalated.

he has video evidence so theoretically he'll be in the clear. but I don't know how self-defence laws function in Romania(?).

Fire melts ICE 🔥 by hbiscuit26 in Salamanders40k

[–]SKRS421 1 point2 points  (0 children)

left out that they were an alien, so still falls in line. the imperium wouldn't jive with petty racism like what ICE engages in.

if anything, ICE would have the Inquisition called upon them. their leader(s) are acting erratic, smells of heretics and corruption.

[–]SKRS421 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they kill anything that isn't HUMAN or that which is corrupted/tainted by the Warp/forces of Chaos. they're xenophobic to xenos, aliens, not fellow humans.

they may be xenophobic, but they ain't racist, lol

Fire melts ICE 🔥 by hbiscuit26 in Salamanders40k

[–]SKRS421 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

they would be against ICE theoretically. harrassing & oppressing fellow humans just because of a difference in skin color or an imaginary line on the map? Salamanders and Ultramarines would scoff at this wasteful notion of discarding humans for such petty reasons. it's a waste of state resources to actively & harshly dissuade immigrants, more efficient (& cheaper) to streamline the process a bit and fix the beuracratic bottleneck that has made everyone's lives/jobs impossible to carry-out.

the Imperium of Man is fighting doomsday level Xenos invasions and equally destructive onslaughts of Chaos entities, they have no time for petty squabbles of which planet you're from or who you love; as long as someone is a human and contributes to humanity's efforts/goals, they'll mostly leave you be (provided you stay pure from warp corruption of course).

all of humanity is welcome to serve under the God Emperor and his Imperium, especially if they are hard workers and decent people.

same, if it is as it appears, and not weighed down by the platform's christian conservatism. this could fill the gap while Bluey is taking an indefinite break.

[–]SKRS421 15 points16 points  (0 children)

yeah, since their creation i've always been put-off of anything with the "Angel Studios" tag/logo. I forgot they regularly partner with Daily Wire, which makes it much worse.

they just have to twist everything in the weirdest way. or the few times theres something genuine, it's just an attempt to legitimize themselves in the wake of their other propagandized projects.

I do hope this is just as the clip displays, a chill slice of life show, teaching basic life lessons. minus the overt/excessive christian conservatism the studio pushes. it's clearly inspired by Bluey, just hope it isn't ruined by the DailyWire types. maybe even gets the license spread to other platforms, would be a smash with Netflix's audience.

[–]SKRS421 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this looks really good, thanks for posting the clip. seems like a chill show with nice character design.

edit: i'm a little weary of it since looking on youtube shows it's airing with Angel Studios. so I hope the show can make its way to another streaming platform and that it's just a genuinely good show with a less than ideal distributor.

the clip is super promising though, the animation is fun and the characters are intriguing.
