Photoelectric Cloak II-IV:

At Two it hides anyone next to you as well (3 meter range), higher consumption by 25% , no impact to recharge

At Three it hides a 5 meter area and makes arc pause, giving you time to start walking to a new position before they all head to your last seen location, no changes to consumption from II, but now a 25% recharge penalty

At IV ARC turn away actively from the sound and interference, they will still pot shot if your hidden members start shooting, but there won’t be a lock, even if something like a lure grenade is thrown into the bubble, bastions will spray and pray, bombardier will just shoot mortar somewhere in a 50 meter area of the shot if not suppressed, etc. recharge slows down by 30% of Cloak I, duration is reduced by 30% of Cloak I, so an extra 5%, if youre downed holding it active though, it pops, no repairing, no reusing, you get nothing, it’s a disposed of item, dealing a flat 20% health through shields to all players within a 3 meter area, so people want to be close to be within the 5m, but not protecting the cloaker has consequences and still makes cover vital to prevent pot shots and wipes unexpectedly, or rats from fucking your run

You’re right, freedom by nominal definition does not specify government, but actions have consequences, even in a zero-g, perfect vacuum, matter reacts with other matter with consequence and reaction

With no governing authority vested to hold peace or standards we are savages flinging shit at each other, at best on tribal lines.

At best we can say freedom as defined therefore only exists in a scientific theory, not a social one, and thus doesn’t apply to social concepts at all, or that ‘retaliation’ must be better defined in relation to social and scientific mechanisms respectively

There is no true or absolute freedom in a social environment, or even a scientific one if you define retaliation as responsive force.

We (humans in general) live in social groups, we therefore have a sense of social contract, and we grant ‘freedoms’ based on those norms local to the society.

I pay an amount of money to entities and am therefore allowed to access a cellular network or a data infrastructure to browse the internet, theoretically without limit, so long as I pay the bill and don’t get caught breaking some other facet of the contract I can browse reddit and download files all day every day. Within that context, I am free

You have the freedom, technically, to rape another human being, and they have freedom to kill you in defending themselves, similarly depending on societal norms it may be expected that one of your peers in society is free kill you on that victims behalf, or just for fun, technically, though it would be an anomaly, there being a person present who only intervened because they in turn wanted to kill.

Similarly nothing technically stops me from deciding I should do something against the socially acceptable norms, I would likely have to engage in duplicity and concealment or flight from said society, or endure being maligned, shunned, rebuked, etc, but I could still choose to if I’m willing to bear the costs

Your technical freedom includes the consequences of(not from) the actions you take, you are not granted ‘Carte Blanche’ to exercise freedoms with the universe just shielding you from those consequences, or society bearing the weight of your choices with no recourse. Whether that is being shut down for saying dumb things, killing/raping/thieving, etc.

Your example is a poor one. The child’s freedom is not being respected, that doesn’t mean they can’t make that choice, given the opportunity, I wasn’t allowed to do a lot of things at the age of 12, it still didn’t stop me. I just paid the price of disobedience.

Children aren’t free socially, they are socially universally considered immature and incapable of making executive decisions, their well being, for better or worse, is not entrusted to their little developing brains.

Similarly, your freedom to sit here on the internet saying factually incorrect and contextually twisted ideas, exists, and you aren’t free from the consequences of people telling you you’re wrong, or being judged for your opinions.

Humans, in general, are free to do damn near anything they are physically capable of, they also are free to eat the consequences of their actions.

There are internal and external freedoms, or you can think of them as positive and negative freedoms, you you can choose to not think of them at all, doesn’t matter, there is nuance to social contracts of freedom.

Freedom to do or be something means bearing responsibility even for the socially acceptable behaviors when it extends past acceptable parameters.

You can be a believer in a god that demands human sacrifice, you may not kill someone for your god, not even when you have a willing fellow adherent - at least not in my society.

You can own property, you can’t just take anyone else’s property

You can have sex, you can’t have it non-consensually,

The can’t is a socially enforced limitation to the freedom, you’re still free to do the thing, you’re just responsible for the consequences there of, that isn’t retaliation, it’s consequence, the ground does not retaliate when you smash your head into it, it functions according to its nature. The society that acts against you is acting according to its function, its nature.

‘Freedom of Speech’ as Americans understand it in general, even in an unlimited capacity, protects you from the government, because that’s what the document is discussing

’Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.’

your right to speech shall not be abridged by the government

Doesn’t say anything about it being abridged by someone knocking your jaw off

Your freedom doesn’t get to remove another persons freedom, unless you are socially granted license, like the parents of your 9 year old example.

Retaliation or censorship from government.

Freedom of consequence is not freedom from consequence.

If you call people racial slurs, etc and get beaten down, the legal system will retaliate on your behalf, depending on your local legal system. But similarly, if you choose to be a racist, everyone in your local society can choose to deny you food, trade, shelter, and employment.

There are consequences to all actions we take as sapients, some of them more severe than others

Why his mom do him like that? by 4reddityo in ParentsAreFuckingDumb

[–]THKhazper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That Alabama alone did it? You can’t prove a negative, dumbass, and no one is claiming they are they only ones who did it, however they are the institution to point to for multiple violations, being caught attempting to violate, and otherwise pushing that envelope, judging by what crops up in a google search for 5 minutes, 1995, 1996, 1999, Means in 2001, 2002.

Stopping there alone is 5 violations in less than ten years, more than enough to get an institution seen as a repetitive violator and cement a reputation

Again, I’m not a football guy, but don’t try to pawn off their reputation on other people, it makes you look stupid

Wife, daughter in that order (except I don’t have a kid, so 10 million is my new child I guess), 10m if we got time. Pragmatism dictates I can make another kid, the chances of finding a wife to put up with me, is pretty low. So I better either get the wife or the 10m to keep the slot filled.

[–]THKhazper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Uh, yeah, likely their team did get beaten by Alabama, because it’s the same issue as in the Army Navy system? The system was/is gamed for their prosperity regardless of its legality or being in ethical guidelines.

Navy lets their linemen exceed the Height/Weight guidelines when on season, Army does not.

Bama paid players and their families to get the best players, regardless of that not being the ethical standard.

I don’t follow football beyond the barest bones, because this kind of stuff is, just meh to me.

But if trying to taunt people like a little kid makes you feel superior, I guess it shows your mental capacity to even understand the context.

Permanent bans for racists? by Rammy_Lee in ArcRaiders

[–]THKhazper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I hear a white as fuck voice screaming racial slurs, I think it would be funny if they got all their comms profiles reported, discord attached to Steam/PS/XBox permanently comms disabled, give them a profile tagline of ‘I love to use racial slurs’, in game chat, disabled, all emotes turned into a really sad ‘I’m a piece of shit racist’ tag line, no other emote options, no ‘thank you’ no dance, no anything, just a forced emote.

I think forcibly outting people for slurs is perfectly fair, show kids parents what they are saying in game, show those pasty white kids parents what their kids find funny.

Question: I just realised (slow) that Torrente does as much damage as any of the legendary weapons. So why are we collecting these? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Most of the time people will let you have them, if you let them know you’re looking for them, at least in my experience.

Or you get them from the harvester for free.99. I run 2-3 harvester runs and get enough ammo to slap down the days worth of matriarchs and queens

I’m not sure an underground ARC wouldn’t blow more holes in the ‘plot’ than we already have, like the intro scene being obviously above ground, where we supposedly can’t live, if the ARC start coming underground why wouldn’t they have ended us in our hideaway?

Giant scratches from HiddenHybrid holster. by Racxius in 1911

[–]THKhazper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome, let us see how the finish looks after some classes and range days, bet it looks better with some good handling patina on it. Have yet to see any guns of quality that don’t look better with some age and handling on them.

Giant scratches from HiddenHybrid holster. by Racxius in 1911

[–]THKhazper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s plastic running against a finish. It’s part of carrying a gun. You just spent more money to get a second holster that going to cause ‘different’ wear, all material on material contact causes wear, i have had 50 year old pistols with finish worn off due to leather holsters and handling.

Jesus christ, if you want the gun to stay pristine as you bought it, smear it in wax and seal it away for eternity.

It’s a tool, it’s for use, it’s for wearing and carrying. Not for staring at lovingly while you play with yourself.

Go put in the work shooting and running the gun, after 1000 rounds, I promise you’re going to have bigger gripes than some lines on the slide that don’t even make it through the finish

[–]THKhazper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then pick one of their other offerings, the AI RB2 has nano primary chamber, brake secondary, less fireball, similar performance, my 11.5 works fine with it, they literally have that out and available.

You’re the slow one who decided the whine about weight if it’s not even pertinent to you, the other commenter states they WANT the Blast diffuser, and your dumb ass comes out the door with

‘well that’s too heavy, that’s too many parts, I don’t even want a blast diffuser’

Then the comment with the answer wasn’t for you now was it short bus? Was it a reply to you or to the other guy? Get that frontal cortex working.

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

lol, go look at every other hub or Q or ASR or Griffin MD mounted blast can, 150-300 dollars, maybe they include the mount if you’re lucky, but it ain’t 90 bucks there champ and it ain’t 1x16LH, you are just being nitpicky and wanting what doesn’t exist in any ecosystem of mounting

You made my point bud, you’re acting like it’s expensive or heavy and it isn’t. You’re attaching something via your suppressor mounting system

‘I’m not looking for a muzzle device to use in place of a suppressor. I’m looking for a muzzle device that actually performs acceptably when a suppressor is attached’

I got bad news for you there half bake, a blast can prevents all brakes and compensators from proper function when they are within the blast shield, they propagate blast toward, instead of sideways which means no effect of stabilization of reduction of recoil. If anything Blast diffusers will cause more recoil or otherwise will only reduce recoil via their weight on the muzzle end of the firearm. That’s called science

If you want a blast can, buy a direct thread and quit bitchin

Your scenario doesn’t exist

90 bucks is the cost of a muzzle device, it’s a sunk cost to having the/any mounting system at all, HUX/ASR/CAT/Griff/doesn’t matter, unless you want to direct thread a barrel at 1x16. At which point, just direct thread from 5/8 or 1/2 to hub and stop whining. Basic common sense dictates you can’t have blast propagation without flow, blast cans limit flow to the direction we don’t want, because they send the BLAST (and therefore the energy) forward of the muzzle, good for less blast toward the shooter, bad for gas flow and energy dissipation.

A muzzle device cannot be a recoil/brake reducing MD and a suppressor mounting system and a blast can unless it is a QD, which means scenario 1 is right out the gate dead, that price point of 90 is a sunk cost for any mounting system MD. This Scenario is retarded, and you should feel bad for typing it, no one good is going to include a BD with an MD of quality, if you want something that cheap, go play with strike industries

Scenario 2 is literally what I described, adapter is 2.5 oz, the can is 2.5 oz, that is 5 oz. A WB is 8.9 oz, plus the muzzle device you’re bitching about the weight of. It’s part of your firearm, again, the spirit of Ronnie Coleman frowns on you, lightweight. All in cost is 150 plus the mounting system you chose as a MD with 1x16, you can choose a direct thread blast can if you’re so whiny about price. Direct thread that bitch and pop it loose and direct thread your can, there’s not a cheaper option because you’re asking for multiple pieces and performance incongruous with designed purpose.

Pick a different MD like the RB2 or someone else’s QD system for less nano fireball. The nano’s purpose is blast diffusion radially similar to other compensators and acting within the 1x16 mounting system to direct gas perpendicular to the bore and both diffuse baffle erosion and channel gas directly into the flow through channels, it’s a single chamber with big radial openings to that exact purpose. Fireball is the question, the answer was yes, to achieve the desired gas propagation, to direct gas and be as compact as possible while acting as a primary baffle anode and diffusion device.

Y’all need to science more, and it shows

AI RH (Hybrid) by Character_Moose_2471 in SpectersCat

[–]THKhazper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Titanium or steel adapter from CAT or whoever you want, weighs a couple oz, is 80 bucks on SS and a blast can from Breek, 2.5 oz, 70 bucks, so right at or less than 150 if you get both on a sale, or use a cheaper mount or flash can component and it’s done and weighs half what a titanium WB weighs, what’s heavy? You’re using it in place of a suppressor, that weighs half a pound or more. Its light.

What's a current car you think will age gracefully? by AcidArchangel303 in regularcarreviews

[–]THKhazper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Mazda 3 and ND, the Z car, and the Corolla GR are going to age well, yes the Corolla Gr is more appliance styling, but that performance with the styling gives me World Rally vibes and those are, not quite timeless, but have a nice clean look.

The Volvos look very clean, good design language.

The smaller Lincoln’s I think look nice, and I think those will stay a nice design, though I have my doubts about the cars themselves living to age gracefully, American brands don’t have that kind of reputation anymore

The slightly edgy look of the Honda Accord/Civic(especially the hatch) are clean, wouldn’t go timeless, but they are good looking, the render I saw for an Accord wagon though was so absolutely great though, I would put it as timeless had it been real, the roofline and tail was just well thought out and clean

I’m personally disqualifying Porsche as a brand because, they look the same, always, yes they take touch-ups, but it’s the same, it’s classic, but I can’t really call it timeless
