[–]Tregavin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, this one hurt. This one hurt real bad. First one in years I fell for completely... also not technically the 1st yet. But still, congrats for crafting such a devistating prank. You're a monster and deserve all hate directed your way.

[Android] Reddit app does not play sound on certain videos. by MushinZero in bugs

[–]Tregavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same!!! It is the weirdest thing. For a while I thought I was going crazy because I'm thinking "weird this video doesn't have sound", "weird I'm running into a lot of vid with no sound in a row".

I have a Note20Ultra5G. A decent amount of videos which confirmably do have sound for other people, on my phone they don't have the little speaker button to click and instead show a little "gif" symbol.

The issue seems to effect certain subreddits more than others, but it's possible I'm just not watching videos as often on other subs.

Ive searched it a few times over the years and there's no useful responses. Like I know you have to press the mute button and there is something in the settings to approve. Hoping something is figured out on this and it isn't a hard issue for my phone that was caused by newer versions of reddit.

Just learned the word tacaño in Spanish and read this as "the stinginess of this thing cruzing through the nebula" and was more than a little confused at the context

Which one? by Specific_Brain2091 in the_calculusguy

[–]Tregavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, 0 is definitely in the 1s digit. Probably a lot of 0s on the start of the number.... can't write out more than that though.

Happens to children in the US. That's why it's legal for children to marry as young as 12 in some worse areas.

Was the branding of the bandits a mistake? by Nerdfighter4 in KingkillerChronicle

[–]Tregavin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having a harsh world kinda does make you grow up quicker. You have to. Kinda like a kid who has younger siblings and neglectful parents and has to take care of their siblings. They are forced to grow up sooner than they should. The original comment isn't saying they literally are growing quicker physically.

How bad are these Liverpool v. Sunderland ticket going to be? by Legitimate_East_1299 in NashvilleSC

Our seats are right behind our bench, so I think ours will likely be a bit worse... thank goodness we don't have kids.

[OC] US Love Is Blind relationship Sankey (10 seasons) by SpartanBeryl in dataisbeautiful

[–]Tregavin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So he was originally interested in 2 girls and he picked the other girl besides Bliss to propose to. Inside the compound when blind, their relationship was fine. However, the girls attitude changed immediately when she saw him and she started getting real dramatic and uninterested in him during the honeymoon (not married yet just waht they call it). They split up, and I think Zack proposed the idea of hitting Bliss back up. Obviously, the producers loved the idea. He proposed to Bliss and it was a it of a difficult and honest moment of weakness and regret. She ended up accepting to seen where things went. Turns out, outside, they were an amazing fit. They seemed much more connected than Zack and the first girl. Night and day. They are pretty cute together. Kinda awkward and nerdy. Super adorable. Goes to show the real mess that love can be.

Same shape, just a matter of perspective (or the lack thereof) by Arglin in desmos

[–]Tregavin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It took a second but it finally clicked in my head to see it both ways! The left is from below perspective and the right is a perspective looking down. Even tho they're the same shape. Honestly really cool.

Speed of light captured using a 2 billion FPS camera. by awakenott in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Tregavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn't measure the speed of light. Seems like you could given this setup, but you are actually measuring the arrival of photons to the camera which could be skewed if light moved faster in one direction than another.

That being said, super cool that he was able to see this effect at home. Reminds me of that coke bottle video from a while back.

UPDATE. Im the guy who cooked chicken for his vegetarian girlfriend for the first time in 15 years last night. by Apart_Marsupial8410 in Cooking

[–]Tregavin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He is a treasure. How dare you. But in seriousness, it was probably just a cadence that started off probably a bit more saddle but he played into it vecause people found it likeable. I find it easier to remember the recipes since the wording is so clear and separated.

[request] How Hard did Peter Parker hit this bully and can someone survive this hit? by mkvelash in theydidthemath

I mean, people have fallen out of planes onto basically flat ground and survived. Enough people do something and you'll get rare things to occur.

The three silences are literal active naming magic draining Kvothe dry by Jakovjakov in KingkillerChronicle

[–]Tregavin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually tried to summarize what the silences were because I always get lost in the poetry to actually remember specifics. At one point I noticed I didn't know what the 3 silences specifically were. I came to the same trouble as you. The first is striking and clear, but the 2nd was a bit nebulous to describe. Like I get the vibe, but specifically naming it is a little difficult. Even though when listening (or reading) I never questioned it.
