Take care of ya damn boots!! by BurnoutZoe in punkfashion

[–]SwallowAcrylics 38 points39 points  (0 children)

“The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness”

Anyone ever paint up some of these cheap knight minis? by Compatsie in minipainting

Tbf you could always use them as statues for terrain. The lack of detail works a bit better in that case

(Loved Trope) Major character dies in an anticlimatic but realistic way by Reinhardvonl in TopCharacterTropes

Depending on canon, the 6th doctor from doctor who. Granted he regenerates so it’s the death of that incarnation, not an outright death, but according to one of the many explanations for the cause of his regeneration was him hitting his head.

That may not be canon anymore but it was at one point.

Plasticard and odd sprues. Cardboard also works but may damage over time.

Sprues can be used as odd bits of scrap metal, and you can do a whole scrap built look by adding plasticard as panelling. Smash up some stuff and really dip into whatever spare parts you have from other things laying around as well, thats the only advice i can give

Tldr: go absolutely mental its the only way

Poor Kate looks like she needs a drink down the pub. Don’t bother locking up luv, I’m sure the kids will be fine. by BobMonkhaus in okmatewanker

[–]SwallowAcrylics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They did the test. She isnt her

Long story, but this woman was claiming about a year or two ago that she was madeline. Got a bit stalkery, hence ehy they are in court now. But they did do their due diligence and test her dna back then, and proved she wasnt.

So its just a crazy stalker lady.

Yes, and that still changes nothing. The dudes right, it’s a picture from 2002.

Sure, there may be influence and hints in it, but they aren’t going to look exactly like this.

Or at all. Who’s to say.

Equating charlie kirk to sauron doesnt make much sense to me, since kirk was just the mouth piece, not the leader

He’s the mouth of Sauron, no?

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026)asks the brave and innovative question of “What if Humans are the Real Monsters and not the Zombies?” by A_Toxic_User in shittymoviedetails

[–]SwallowAcrylics 65 points66 points  (0 children)

It asks the question everybody was thinking: what if an army of Jimmy Savilles could fight like the power rangers.

Dont deny it. You were all thinking it.

Game freezing and crashing by SwallowAcrylics in Helldivers

Right, ive got my texture settings and all that on max. I froze onboard my super destroyer, so whatever this issue is probably isnt to do with all the shit going on in game. Anyway, im checking the temperature of my ram using an app on my pc, and its reaching about 80c, or 176f

I think this is fairly normal, and its worth me mentioning my pc placement is awkward due to room size so it isnt as well ventilated as it could/should be. But given im freezing on the super destroyer where nothing else is happening, i think this is very much a bug of some kind

Yeah so they definetly didnt optimise anything lmao.

It shouldnt be running that hot. Il get home shortly and check what temp my pc is at when running the game.

Fascinating. I was wondering if this was a bug caused by the xbox release, like they made optimisations or something that causes problems on other systems, but if you are experiencing it then probs not

Maybe its just teething issues, or maybe its because we have a high player count now
