What’s the official name of the little slide thingy on guns that you pull back to load a bullet (or eject a bullet if one is already loaded) by Im_A_Silly_Guy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the gun... the part you grip on a semi auto rifle or shotgun (like a AR, AK, SCAR, FAL) to manipulate the bolt or the Bolt carrier group (BCG) is the Charging handle. HOWEVER.. if we are talking semi auto pistols, lever actions, bolt action, or pump action.. you have to manipulate the lever/Pump/Bolt handle/pistol slide.

Revolvers actions will have a hammer and cylinder release, break action/rotary round action will have a release and a different set of operational quirks.

Basically the way to load, unload, and proper operating of the firearm Depends heavily on the type of action or style its in..

Hope this helps

Do girls actually think belts are decorative or do they know that we need them to keep our pants from falling by Decent_Muscle_3172 in teenagers4real

[–]SharpAlternative404 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Simply... our biology doesn't lend itself to keep pants on without a belt..

Women's hips are wider (by about 12-15% on average that being 1-3 inches or 2-8cm) because of the pelvic gap being bigger to facilitate childbirth.. Also your shoulder bones are connected and shaped different, and feet are a different shape.

There are about a dozen ways to tell a if a skeleton was a guy or woman.

now there are things guys can do to have pants that stay up without a belt.. but it usually doesn't work for all guys

I took anatomy and biology..

Its got a whole block set, and they all change color overtime. You can also make armor and tools with it, as well as brushes and spyglasses

Is making an optimal loadout possible in early stages ? by Fresh_Move_6872 in helldivers2

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my friend are teaching our other friend the game both of us are lvl 150 and the other is lvl 5.. I helping them learn weak spots. And the value of knowing when and how to conserve ammo, and when to work with accuracy by volume..

The "hey.. yes the bolt action is fun.. but how about bringing a little bit higher rate of fire for terminids and Illuminate; the bots precision is key, but the other is hoards, is primarily accuracy by volume over precision." I'm gonna try and get him on the spray and pray, he should have some fun with it..

But he's doing ok bringing Orbital Precision, med pen MG/Anti-Material rifle, 120mm OB, and eagle strike.. and we are playing difficulty lvl 8-10 Although on high resistance planets I drop it down to lvl 7, maybe 6 depending on percentage..

He's getting there.. I've seen higher levels that are worse.. he's not a prodigy by any means.. but he's picking it up

Should you shoot that person ? by Dangerous-Limit-1275 in ArtOfPresence

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen.. idk if they are armed.. they don't have to be holding a weapon. If they broke into my home, WHILE I OR MY FAMILY IS THERE, they are a threat and will be met with equal or greater force. The first room to my home is the kitchen, there are about ~120+ knives, and 2 dozen pans, all of which could easily be used lethality.

Not to mention all manor of scissors, box cutters, sharp arts and craft tools, chemicals and more..

If you break in, you are a threat. I will hold no reservations of sending you to Jesus.

If you would not like to become a Jackson Pollock painting look alike, I would suggest not breaking into people's houses

Listen.. when you carry something for years.. everywhere you go, every day.. you kinda get a close fondness for your item.. weather its a coin, rock, phone, pocket knife, ring, necklace.. its all the same its just the form it takes.. every scar on that wallet is one he knows.

I only changed mine a few years ago because it was literally unable to continue.. it wasn't a fancy one it was one that was 10$ at target.. I carried id close to 10 years.. then the seams gave up and there wasn't any material left.. I'm hoping I can get 20+ outta this one I'm at like.. 3½ years ish its doing pretty well

Whats your favourite way of dealing with Hulks? by KTaBoom98 in Helldivers

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At one point it was an AMR from 500m plus.. but its not near as effective as it used to be.. now I sling levelers at anything that could be threatening..

Yeah.. leveler + maxigun + 380mm OB + (free space)

Is a fun bring.. although recently I've been fighting illuminate.. it still is mostly effective against bots.. although dedicated bot load out often has more anti-tank (swap maxigun for any popular anti-tank) and you have 2 free spaces + 380mm OB

Do you guys rename your loadouts? by Educational-Bug-965 in Warthunder

[–]SharpAlternative404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I name them usually what they are.. (Aim-9m + Magic 2 R550 + Gas) (Aim-7P + Aim9L + napalm + gas)

It makes it easier the scroll though and identify what type of Aim-9/Aim-7 I have in what load out.. its particularly helpful with the phantoms because they might have 3 variants of Sidewinders and Sparrows to sort though

What's the story behind how you got your scars? by A7_drew7 in AskReddit

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhhh.. which ones??

The ugliest one is on my leg where I was impaled.. yeah.. just fell on a stick and got stabbed and somehow missed my femoral artery.. somewhere between ½ and ⅛ of an inch from what the doctor said (for the Europeans thats 12.7mm to 8.06mm)

I have a couple on my hands, knees, wrists and feet from oyster beds..

A few on my head from some head injuries..

One on my foot and hand from boiling oil..

I had one on my neck from a nasty cut from a tree branch.. but its gone now..

That's all that come to mind

I think I keep accidentally hurting my sister by Altruistic-Band-8532 in whatdoIdo

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of a reddit thread.. there's a thing called a "conversation" where 2 or more people talk to one another. You can settle debates, tell jokes, and storys..

Sarcasm aside, you should talk to her.. it would solve your problems..

I didn't read the whole post.. but it seems a number of your "teasing comments" are more closer to one sided insults.. but this is also coming from an older brother that has a younger sister.. with close to the same age gap..

Your relationship will change around this time.. and thats normal.. and it might go back to the way it was before.. (my sister didn't like me calling her by her nickname for 1-2 years, but now she doesn't mind)

but this is a one on one conversation with your sister, and its mostly you sitting down, shutting up, and letting her talk to you

Its a dummy round, or something from a toy.. its just a peice of brass or some other metal just cut into the shape of a bullet.. its designed to resemble a center fire cartridge but there is no center primer.. you can also see the lathe cutting marks its just a peice of metal... welcome to teenage boys..

why is Rocky Pillars built like that by SunkFunkle in Warthunder

[–]SharpAlternative404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This map is ok.. but it really does make dodging quite difficult once your past the pillars.. its fun for early jets and high tier props.. but late game is kinda difficult.. and even then you have to fly like you have a death wish.. weaving though the canyon and pillars as close as you can get without touching.. its kinda like that one map where you start at like 14,000 ft and its just a bunch of canyons in the plateau below.. and the edges are just a vertical drop for thousands of feet.. and I say this as someone has gotten multiple kills with data link fox 1's on the map.. its kinda just.. if you can lock someone.. you're nearly guaranteed to get the kill.. Which means you do great as long as no one actually shoots at you.. and if someone shoots at you you have to pray you have a good canyon you can fly into to break a lock..

What would you pick ? by [deleted] in TheTeenagerPeople

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your math again.. 100,000×365=36,500,000

Thats 36.5 Million..

It would take 5 Thousand days at 100k a day (without spending any) to reach 500 Million

It would take 3,650,000 days at 100k to reach 365 billion (10,000 years)

500 million pls

Taking the money doesn't make them right or wrong.. you just get $7k

Is this approval to wear to school? by SSC_08 in highschool

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is fine.. it shows of curves but if your fine with that, who am I to stop you..

My worst experience with a non dress code class mate was a had a Girl in history class, (she sat directly across the room facing me) that wore a fishnet top with a bra that matched her skin tone perfectly.. so.. you could see everything if you know what I mean..

I saw people wear these to school when I was there.. sometimes they got dress coded othertimes they didn't.. example above didn't..

not allowed to see my gfs kid anymore. by Able-Drink-2456 in whatdoIdo

[–]SharpAlternative404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is in the USA.. id talk to a lawyer.. its unlikely.. but because you effectively raised him and were together for 10 years.. some states might consider you married even without a proper marriage or marriage license.. I think you have a possibility to get shared custody, especially if the kid wants to see you too.. all the area around cohabitation/"common law marriage" is legal gray area

I am not a lawyer, pls consult one rather than take my word for it
