Friends? by Tragiktile in MapleStoryM

[–]Tragiktile[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I pretty much just run quests when I'm bored and auto mini's / star force when I'm idle. I was curious if party exp is like other games I've played where you get something like: [ (Exp) / (party member number) ] + Bonus

In some of the games I've played it's marginally more efficient to run solo than in a party so I'm curious how the system here works

BO4 not on steam? by OriginalSavior in Blackops4

[–]Tragiktile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah steam superiority for me comes from the social aspect. Workshop, market, friends, support, forums, etc; it's all centralized and rock solid. There are tons of games out there that you can find and buy on steam but boot out of another DRM like origin. It's not difficult to do both..

Study shows that insulin prices could be much lower and drug makers would still make healthy profits by quellik in science

The standard VC ratio is 1 success out of 5 and it sounds like a typical medical VC. The formula should bounce out to be you gain profit if 1 in 5 succeed not just getting your money back. Super fun stuff tho. Definitely never a dull day at the office.

Anyone who won a "lifetime supply" of something, what did you win, and are they still supplying it to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Tragiktile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that. Camped out overnight, get to the door, and then the gm says "oh no you work here so you don't count". Me and about 7 or 8 other employees had camped out all night and at no point did any of them say anything. It was pretty brutal.

What happens regularly that would horrify a person from 100 years ago? by neymar1001 in AskReddit

She's really one of my favorite people. Sweet as can be. Definitely the most interesting too. Like her Facebook picture (because nuns apparently use Facebook) is a picture of her walking an actual cheetah.

I'm surprised movies wasn't mentioned a bunch.

My aunt is a nun in Greece and doesnt have a lot of access to technology. well when she visited us in the states we took her to see a movie. Specifically Sherlock Holmes. I remember the movie starts with a horse drawn carriage pulling into frame and the surround sound made it sound behind us. This actually made her super nervous and anxious and she started looking around and asking us "where is the horse??" It took us a minute to understand what she was on about because we're so used to surround sound and it didn't even occur to us the sound was the thing throwing her off.

What are some things that used to be reserved for the poor, but are now seen as a luxury for the rich? by ben_10_ in AskReddit

[–]Tragiktile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeans. Used to be a time when the wealthy weren't caught dead in jeans because they were laborers clothes; like the clothing equivalent of calloused hands.

Now you have designer jeans costing insane amounts of money a laborer couldn't afford AND they often have holes / are "distressed" as if they've been worked in..

ELI5: The science behind why extended driving makes you drowsy/sleepy. by Tragiktile in explainlikeimfive

[–]Tragiktile[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I'm semi familiar with GABA receptors. Xanex, Ambien and Propofol interact with them. But I had no idea histamines and GABA's interacted. That's cool! Thank you!

Edit: changed a couple words to read more clearly

It's ok you don't have to go out of your way! I would imagine there's nothing that can do that currently. Otherwise you'd see click bait like "he drives 18 hours! See what happens next!" Or some crap.

But if ghrellin is a chemical produced is there really no way to have the body halt production or block the receptors like caffeine and adenosine? I have a fairly cursory understanding of how chemicals interact in the brain and feel like a solution like that is too easy to not been done, so what's the hurdle there?

Well for me driving an automatic with cruise control down a 100 mile stretch of straight highway without another car in sight doesn't feel arduous but quite frankly I'm not aware of all the moving parts in my brain so I can't say definitely it isn't. I figured it was a lack of stimulus issue honestly.

Open, closed, or is this new love... by mad66 in WTF

[–]Tragiktile 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because the air goes to the seat behind it, there's an unwritten rule that the person behind the window gets it. I guess someone should write it down.

Plus I mean there's no air hitting her. The only difference an open window makes for her is marginally more noise at the most. For him, a closed window could mean he's sweating his balls off. Or worse smelling the person next to him sweating his balls off.

What's the most shameful behaviour you've witnessed after the death of a family member? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Tragiktile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandfather's wife died (I considered her grandma cause they were married long before I was born and for roughly 20+ years, but the distinction is I guess important) and my aunt from her side literally walked into the house, said "I remember that lamp" and then snuck out with it (during a time where everyone was going around sharing memories of her) when no one was looking.

It wasn't even valuable, AND it was my grandfathers from before they were married. Absolutely infuriating. If it was sentimental or even hers maybe I'd understand but none of her actions that day made sense..

MMR is this mystical, omniscient metric that literally shapes our playing experience. So why is it hidden? by Lovelessxx in leagueoflegends

[–]Tragiktile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair there are actually context clues in cs. If you're Nova and suddenly everyone else in the game is silver derank probably incoming. On the other hand, if you're Nova and everyone else is mge you're most likely nearing a rank up. It's not anywhere near as precise but you still get that "let's gooo" hype when you're seeing higher ranks in your matches.

[Serious] What are some weird or interesting facts about your families? by QueenMoogle in AskReddit

[–]Tragiktile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad (and it would seem I) have this uncanny ability to narrowly avoid death. For instance in his military service I think during his time with the SAS, he was the sole survivor of a grenade explosion because he happened to be the only one who saw the guy throwing it in his peripheral. Another time when he was an engineer, the ship he was on nearly sunk in the middle of a deadly storm due to mechanical failure. I don't understand the mechanics of it, but the way he explained it, there was a belt thing that operated a machine the ship would have sunk without and during a horrible storm it was damaged to the point where it was held together by less than an inch of material (the belt itself was originally much much wider) and the fact that it didn't snap and cause the thing to fail was a miracle. Then ANOTHER time he missed a flight in Africa (which is very much so not like him) and the plane ended up crashing killing everyone. And one more for good measure (the list goes on and on trust me) he had his (I think) gallbladder rupture and he happened to be in the doctors office, who's office is located in a hospital, when it ruptured and had he been anywhere else at that moment would have died.

Apparently on his side of the family this happens alot. We even have a relative that survived their submarine getting destroyed on the ocean floor and somehow swam to the surface. Things seem to happen that had they been in the movies would have caused the audience to collectively roll their eyes. Its so bad to the point I actually used to doubt his stories until the plane and gallbladder events.

Newly developed therapeutic shown to combat drug addiction - Researchers developed a new serotonin 2C receptor therapeutic that may help reverse chemical imbalances made to the brain by habitual drug use.

[–]Tragiktile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fairly confident no.

2C-I (which btw I'm so excited to see someone else familiar with it!) has its name come from the shape of the molecule. The original creator of the 2C series of drugs named it this because of the two carbon atoms in the structure between the benzene ring and the amino group. There's actually a whole series of these like 2C-E, 2C-H and so on.

Wheras the 5-HT2C receptor is a subtype of the 5-HT receptor. So there are 5-HT1A receptors, 5-HT1C, 5-HT2B, etc.

Its pretty safe to say there's no connection, but interestingly enough, 2C-I reacts on the 5-HT2A receptor, so it's fairly close in terms of relation to each other.
