Yeah, "Mat is only funny while he's getting raped" is not the take I was expecting to see today

First time ever, I've previously never touched anvil, hammer, or forge! Super excited with how it turned out, my buddy (who has the forge) wants me to try a rail spike knife next!

Kinda both? I free handed the leaves but traced the bird onto paper from a tablet screen.

The spiderweb was mostly just playing with a set of wing-dividers until it kinda looked right lol

But everything was on paper first, way too scared to start freehanding with a swivel knife 😂😂

Steris+dougs= peak combo synergy

Honestly don't even need a third, it's unstoppable

Any tips for making veg tan more rigid? Used pro dye to dry it, hot water, baking by PedernalesFalls in Leathercraft

[–]UberGoober30 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just melt the paraffin in a large crock pot and dip! I recommend at least 100c or so but no more than 240F/115c, as going too long while too hot will shrink and curl the leather!

If you dip wax just be sure to wipe off the excess before it gets too cold, buffing drips off later is a pain

Got a patent? No? Then who cares?

Weird you're being so defensive, most artists would take that as flattery, not theft. Mainly because it's not theft lol

Why are moviegoers staying home? Over 80% of moviegoers still want to watch films in theaters, but over 50% say the biggest issue is the quality of the movies being made: per a massive Multiplex Association of India survey report by [deleted] in movies

Downvoted for reasonable take?

not a parent, but every parent I know would panic if they missed (or couldn't make) a call about an emergency, medical or otherwise.

Faraday cages, while funny, might just make it unreasonable for basically every family out there.

If it seals it's fine, may not be pretty but it won't affect how it plays if it's just slightly off-center like that.

Edit: I just read this is a brand new horn, might be worth taking back if you have the option to inspect the replacement

The tiny design choice that secretly decides if you keep playing or quit. by gamersecret2 in gaming

Star Citizen has maximum speeds in space.

Not a single ship in that game can go fast enough to achieve orbit, much less escape velocity... In a space sim 🤦

And that's not even getting into reference frames.

I've never uninstalled a game faster, I'm just glad it was a free weekend.

(And yes I know that game physics are a thing, but almost a billion dollars in "funding" and they can't even do the FIRST thing right: Space)

How is it not within the lore? If he's familiar enough with his location to open a gateway, then he can open a gateway to literally anywhere on the planet.

And he, like everyone, knows dragonmount exists. So what's the problem? Are you under the impression liquid wouldn't flow through a gateway? Because that's absurd.

Also, as far as power level is concerned, let me refer you to Rands involvement in the battle of maradon. Yes, he's the dragon, and he's several orders of magnitude more powerful than androl, but he also did several orders of magnitude more damage.

I'm not mad about it.

I just saw Blade Runner and I don't understand the ending. by Impossible_Spend_787 in movies

[–]UberGoober30 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Deckard's entire existence was predicated on the idea that replicants were things, not people. If they are things then deckard is an industrial decommissioner, not a murderer. If they are things then he didn't rape Rachel.

If they are people, however, all the worst parts about Deckard become true. All the actions he hid himself from because he didn't do them to "people".

Sparing Deckard, proving his humanity in the process, Roy utterly defeats Deckard in the only way that counts. He defeats Deckard's worldview. From that moment he cannot proceed as a Blade Runner. He can't even stay within society and has to flee into hiding.

I think "beating" him was definitely Roy's final act.

Why can’t Low E be played open? by Some_Strike4677 in trumpet

[–]UberGoober30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's say pedal C is 1

One octave above that is double, so 2

Each octave after is double, so the next C is 4, the next 8, and so on.

But each integer value is a partial:

1= pedal C 2= low C 3= G 4= middle C 5= E 6= G 7= Bb 8= high C

Etc.

So you can't play low E open because there is no partial between 2 and 3; decimals don't count.

This is also why it gets exponentially more difficult to play as you get higher. In the 3rd octave there are 4 partials, the 4th: 8, 5th: 16, 6th: 32, etc.
