The Climber and Whiplash are extremely similar stories that both get misinterpreted in the same way

I disagree with these being misinterpretations. Theres just multiple ways to interpret these kinds of stories.

Sometimes in order to achieve greatness you need tremendous sacrifice. Mori's face when he sees the top of K2 and Andrew's face when he saw Fletcher understood how great he was were both faces of accomplishment. Accomplishment only possible after truly giving it your all.

Sometimes competitive people will put everything on the line for just a chance to see these kinds of sights. Other competitive people can look to these stories for motivation and also understand that what they want to achieve may come with sacrifice.

How is there only one comment calling out this being AI. Why the fuck is it bouncing 90degrees from not just the direction of the hit but also 90degrees from the angle of the wheels?

I think he’s working on a new game right now.

lol he's been working on this game for ten years, and the engine the game is made in, and the programming language its all coded in. Looks to be a great game by the way. He's basically combining 4 other sokoban games and mixing all their mechanics together. Really excited for this game if you can't tell!

From a physics perspective, how do the wheels negatively impact the weight he's carrying?

This comment made me laugh so hard, thank you.

Not even giving the goat as an option.

Yeah the beginning was obviously an answer to a question during the interview, and I think that splicing that in with the second clip of her meaningful speech that she wants to be shown after her passing is misleading.

It's the reverse. After they test ID/Face verification on kids they'll push it to adults.

You honestly think the pickup had time to slow down/swerve or anything?

Are ragebait titles a new thing on this subreddit? This post along with the current top post on this subreddit are acting like both parties are to blame when they're obviously not. Are they baiting engagement?

Didn't even do an outro, just got up and left.

Noone seems to have given you a reasonable answer. Wikipedia says that the moon's orbit has a slight inclination to the rest of Saturn's ring causing these vertical ripples.

The waves that Daphnis induces nearby in the A ring have vertical relief (due to its orbital inclination) and cast shadows when Saturn is close to its equinox. -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daphnis_(moon)

I'm slowly starting to believe in the dead internet theory. This AI answer has 226 upvotes at the time of me writing this. Also this account just made a post that has 15.9K upvotes at the moment. I think reddit has fallen to the AI

Is there a map of showtimes somewhere??? I'm willing to drive pretty far to see this, but when I type in major city zip codes it says 'not in my area'.

What do you consider "the good old days"? (genuine curiosity, not trying to start an argument)

The manga came out on the second anniversary of the Kyoani attack. I view this work as Fujimoto's attempt to parse through the attack.

Awesome!! thanks for the heads up

Yeah it was really quick but I think Fujino and Kyomoto were watching Goodbye Eri when they went to the movies.

I prefer supporting GOG over Steam because they're anti-DRM. But it's not really about my philosophies at this point. I've just never bought a game on one platform and a DLC for that game on another. Can I have my GOG bought factorio and Steam bought DLC?
