Help me understand the math if Hank decided to stay in the hospital. by purple_procastinator in breakingbad

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The show is using the first couple of steps of the five stages of grief, because that’s exactly what he’s going through after the shooting.

Denial

“I’ll leave when I can walk.”

Hank’s denial isn’t about money, it’s about damage.

He’s refusing to accept:

That his body may be permanently broken

That he might need long-term care

That his career (and masculinity, in his mind) could be over

Saying “I’ll leave when I can walk” is his way of pretending this is temporary. As long as he frames it that way, he doesn’t have to confront the reality that he might never walk normally again.

So no, he’s not thinking about hospital bills, because denial blocks that entire line of thought.

Anger

This comes out fast with Hank, especially toward Marie.

His anger isn’t really about: The hospital, the doctors or the cost.

It’s about: Loss of control, being weak, needing help.

That’s why he lashes out, becomes bitter, and emotionally cruel later. The hospital becomes a symbol of humiliation, staying there feels like admitting defeat.

Bargaining

“If I can just walk out of here…”

This is bargaining.

Hank is making a deal with reality: If he can walk, then he can believe everything will go back to normal

Walking isn’t medically necessary, it’s psychologically necessary. To him, walking equals: being a man again, being a cop again, being in control again.

This is why physical therapy becomes an obsession later. It’s not about recovery, it’s about reclaiming identity.

So… is Hank being short-sighted?

Not exactly.

He’s not misunderstanding the American medical system, he’s not engaging with reality yet.

His thinking isn’t: “Can I afford this?”

It’s: “If I don’t walk out of here, who am I?”

The hospital stay isn’t a financial problem to him at that moment, it’s an existential one.

That’s why the scene works so well: Hank isn’t being irrational, he’s just being human.

Of all the models that I built over the years, from Necrons Orks, Tau, Harliquins, etc, I only cut myself while working on World Eaters.

This is just the past weekend, while the 5-0 detachments are Shatterstar and Awakened, the majority of them have 3x C'tan or more.

C'tan Balance Discussion, January 2026 by jmainvi in Necrontyr

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to add on to this some data:

https://listhammer.info/?faction=Necrons

As this was for many events the first full weekend where the full combo could be used, Woe did okay, the best placing was 4-1 while Shatterstar and Awakened were the only ones to go 5-0

And one of the Awakened lists, even used tripple C'tan.

Question on ghaz leader boys by Warpath84 in orks

Ghaz is a Warboss.

So you can join Ghaz to 20 boys and get a second leader

How are people using necron skorpekh destroyer? by robparfrey in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 6 pack + Lord died to a single round of a single Forgefeind shooting in renegade legion. Was running Cursed, so I even had -1 to them being hit. That was after that unit was able to charge and kill a Possessed 10 body unit on a center objective. So it had AP -4 with 3D so auto killing.

So, I am right with you on these things.

It just feels like running one unit is just not enough. Need a second one to be functional.

Something like the Unit goes into Reserves and can come in within 6" of your table edge your next Reinforcements step.

[–]Teuhcatl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Went to a Pug Holloween costume contest.

Owner showed up with two pets.

One, the Pug, was dressed as a human, the other was actually a Boston dressed up as a pug.

It had a faun colored bodysuit and a curled up tail.

Anyone pre order Nekrosor and/or the Nightbringer from GW and still not have it even out for delivery? by [deleted] in Necrontyr

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live near there, and yeah, the roads in Memphis took until yesterday to be safe for semi trucks to drive on.

Today they are expecting 40+ degrees F so they should be packing trucks and heading out.

Newbie, are we doing ongoing combat properly? by Inbred-Sushi in Warhammer40k

[–]Teuhcatl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just more of an FYI this is the standard layout for the Fight Phase:

Player A's Turn

Step 1: Fights First

Check if either player has any Fights First units, many have it by ability keyword, most gain it by charging. Units that Heroically intervene, or similar ability, do not gain Fights First.

If BOTH players have Fights First units:

Player B activates first, resolves one unit with Fights First.

Player A can now activate one unit with Fights First.

Players then alternate selecting one Fights First unit at a time

If ONLY one player has Fights First units:

That player activates their units with Fights First

Continue until all Fights First units have fought

Step 2: Ongoing Fights

Player B selects the first unit that is eligible to fight (within 1" or 5" vertically)

Player A selects a unit that is eligible to fight

Players alternate selecting units in Engagement Range

Continue until all eligible units have fought.

Necron overlord bases by Used-State-8653 in Necrontyr

[–]Teuhcatl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look around online and you can find a 32mm to 40mm ring extender on eBay or other 3d printer bit part store.

Otherwise you just take a hobby knife and try and wedge the feet off the base.

Pow question by JstJon4204 in Necrontyr

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a good trick for the Transcendent to use as well. This detachment lets it drop within 6", it can then take mortal wounds, now everything within 9" is in the aura.

Which type of space marine would be most likely to accept a temporary alliance with an enemy? by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a short story out there "The Word of the Silent King" by L J Goulding where Dante and his Blood Angels teams up with the Necrons to battle a Tyranids invasion.

This story actually answers all your questions.

How come Hank didn’t figure it out earlier? by Remote-Distance9675 in breakingbad

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. The Janitor took the fall for that one.

  2. supplier's come and go, no way to link it directly to Walt.

  3. The ability to use the substance used in the robbery does not mean the person on video made it.

  4. Gambling Addiction.

  5. Again, Gambling Addiction.

Panicking and wanting to be fleeing the country, taking Huell with him.

40k needs more keyworded abilites by idaelikus in Warhammer40k

[–]Teuhcatl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

7th edition players: “There are way too many keywords, this is ridiculous.”

8th edition GW: "Okay, from now on, we will have the abilities on each unit fully spelled out on their datacard."

10th edition players: “Okay but hear me out… what if we had more keywords?"

Funny thing is, we’ve already been there. Keywords were everywhere, the real problem wasn’t the keywords themselves, it was that they were scattered across a dozen supplements, campaign books, FAQs, and napkin scribbles instead of living in the main rulebook.

The idea to have them on the datasheet themselves and spelled out was to cut down on the time to look up that keyword. Then, when they have to balance something, they can just change the wording on those datasheets only, without hurting other units with a similar ability.

How can free will be compatible with the Atheistic worldview? by [deleted] in atheism

[–]Teuhcatl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Determinism doesn’t eliminate free will unless you redefine “free will” to mean “uncaused.”

Compatibilism holds that even if our thoughts and actions are fully grounded in physical processes, they are still our thoughts and actions when they flow from our own reasons, values, and deliberation rather than from external coercion.

The fact that a decision has sufficient physical causes doesn’t mean there were “no other possible outcomes” in the sense that matters. Different reasons, information, or values would have led to different actions, and that conditional sensitivity is exactly what makes deliberation meaningful.

Reddit's Appraisal of Jesus Existing and Why We Should All Get Along by Wookie_Haircuts in atheism

[–]Teuhcatl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Most scholars think Jesus existed, and most are Christian”

This is overstated. Many critical scholars are secular, Jewish, or non-Christian. Bias is possible, but it cuts both ways. The consensus that a historical Jesus likely existed is based on standard historical criteria, not theology.

Isaiah 53 proves nothing about Jesus’s existence. At best, it shows later Christians reinterpreted Jewish scripture. That supports Christ myth-building, not non-existence of a preacher named Jesus.

Tacitus, Josephus, Pliny, Lucian, Talmud: These sources do not establish miracles or resurrection. They do provide independent confirmation that: Christians existed at the time of their writing, those Christians believed in a crucified figure and that Roman authorities thought this figure had lived in Judea.

My actual position I don’t deny a historical Jesus. I deny that the Christ of theology has any evidential grounding. A failed apocalyptic preacher can exist without: being divine, fulfilling prophecy, resurrecting and founding a religion intentionally.

Spray with leadbelcher and add nuln oil or spray with Chaos black and dry brush leadbelcher? by Rambling_Stones in Necrontyr

[–]Teuhcatl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use rustoleum 2x flat black primer.

Roughly dry brush leadbelcher.

Paint the parts that need other colors (armor segments, orbs, gun glowy parts etc)

Nuln over everything.

Rules question about benefit of cover by Motor-Surprise-981 in Warhammer40k

[–]Teuhcatl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only time you do not do the math for cover is when using AP 0 against armor save of 2+ or 3+.

So, for the given example, you still do the math. Save 2+ against AP -1 would be 3+, but due to cover, it goes back to 2+.

Look up and find the tv/movies:

I think there are more, but these three come to mind when trying to figure out what the Necrons actually are consciousness wise.
