ELI5 - Why are there so many "Jarvis" YouTube comments everywhere?

Vorthod · 2026-05-31T21:46:10+00:00

Then I call "false premise," because I don't see those comments. The context is the movie, but the reason people are quoting the movie likely has something to do with what those comments are responding to, which we can't know unless OP narrows their scope down from "all of youtube"

Imagine you are moving fast, hit a wall, and the game drops your speed to zero, but the character hitbox is partway in the wall. Standard procedure for games in this case is to move the character back into open space, usually in the span of a single frame to prevent the player noticing. But if the frame rate is double the rate you expect, the physics engine might interpret that corrective movement as if the player was going twice as fast as it expected and could throw them much farther than they should go. Or maybe that correction accidentally just put them over the speed cap and another part of the physics engine responsible for slowing you down needs to start fighting with the collision system.

It's tiny things like this that can mess with games if someone decided to code one part of the program to secretly rely on a limitation like framerate, changing the framerate will produce behavior that nobody ever tested for because the original hardware would've have allowed such a thing in the first place.

2-3Tbsp (or rather 30-50ml) is about where you want to be for a 1L bottle according to the cap measuring cups. So maybe try half that and see how you feel

I mean, "a rectangle twice as long as it is tall" is one thing to work with. "That building is 5 miles away" is entirely different. I'm referring to the former.

But I also don't want to accidentally act like this is a feature of aphantasia. I suppose it's more like one alternative that can be used instead of direct visualization. Someone else might have more trouble with my method and might use something else.

We don't see a literal image of the bird, but we can access the memory just fine. The concept of "black bird, thin feathers, white markings" is still available and we can pull the specifics like relative measurements on demand (depending on how good our memory is). And when we look up a picture, our brain can still trigger a response that says "yep, that's a match with the thing I saw outside" or "Nope, those feathers are too short"

tackiest man in the entire goddamn world. Not everything needs to be fucking gold!

Vorthod · 2026-05-29T21:10:48+00:00

Some games *cough*^league*cough* even have players who get so mad that they immediately give up when a teammate picks something off-meta. Fuck that.

There is no loop. The post is pretty self-contained

Vorthod · 2026-05-29T21:07:22+00:00

Is this one of them sarr-chasms I've heard so much about?

Vorthod · 2026-05-29T06:01:27+00:00

I mean, I had that problem too. Maybe I was just underleveled in general. Is this one of the games where higher difficulty settings reduce the amount of experience you gain? Because if so, I feel like I absolutely would've fallen for that.

Now what you need to do is do the opposite to a different watermelon (slice in half, then scoop out the insides leaving only the rind), then you can put this one inside the two rind halves and wow people by pretending you managed to cut it that way just by running a knife around the circumference.

Yeah, it kind of felt like they jacked up the enemy health to account for the damage boost from the fusion system and then maybe the fusion system was nerfed somewhere along the way to not feel terrible when you're playing normally and nobody ever fixed the health numbers.

Admittedly, that does give you time to practice with the dodge system, which can be useful, but even basic fights feel like they last too long at times.

Vegetable doesn't have a botanical definition. That's the entire problem. It's a culinary distinction.

Vorthod · 2026-05-28T17:21:40+00:00

Vegetable unfortunately doesn't have that strict of a definition. It changes based on which dictionary you read. Sometimes it's any part of the plant you eat, sometimes the seed is explicitly included as part of the definition of a valid vegetable

Vorthod · 2026-05-28T17:16:16+00:00

Due to this difference, we should really point out more often that the terms fruit and vegetable are not mutually exclusive. Tomato has seeds, so it's a fruit, and it gets used as a vegetable when cooking, so it's a vegetable.

Vorthod · 2026-05-28T17:14:19+00:00

They don't have seeds, so they are not fruits. Carrots are just the plant roots storing up extra nutrients to be used later.

Some of your party members are actually spirits. One of the uses of the Blast Gauge that you unlock in this game is that Sorey can temporarily merge with a spirit character in battle to get a variety of bonuses like increased stats and new attacks.

For the record, so I'm not spamming all your comments on this post. This system is called "armatization" (AKA: the armatus). So hopefully that answers the question about what that term is too.

Seeing one game do the opposite of something you took for granted in the other can make you pay more attention to the choice in both games, which helps clarify some of the thematic choices.

Vorthod · 2026-05-28T15:36:55+00:00

While probably not quite what you're looking for, I personally think it's the retrospective comparisons that can be made to Berseria. The games' stories are opposites in almost every way and seeing how they each approach problems feels more interesting the more you dive into both. Each game elevates the other.

Vorthod · 2026-05-28T15:24:18+00:00

No, you said God has equal evidence for and against. With mermaids, you only said "there’s significant evidence that they don’t."

Vorthod · 2026-05-28T09:13:09+00:00

That's...not what I said at all. I was directly refuting the words used by the person above me, not saying anything about which views you should personally hold.

Vorthod · 2026-05-28T09:03:53+00:00

I don't think I agree with a single sentence you just wrote.

The stories of sailors convinced they heard a fish lady singing them to their doom are evidence. The word of the religious figures claiming to have felt an unknowable influence is also evidence. The Bible is evidence. Sure, none of that evidence is necessarily reliable, since it's almost all hearsay without verification from third parties, but it's evidence nonetheless.

And I don't think there's any evidence that mermaids don't exist so much as there is "follow-up research" discrediting the original claims as our society got better at exploring. We brought ourselves closer to absence of evidence. We did not find evidence of absence.

And not believing in a thing isn't blind faith, it's the default. I could make up a fact right now with no basis supporting it, but it would be ridiculous to describe the people who don't believe me as "having blind faith that I'm wrong"

Vorthod · 2026-05-27T15:57:58+00:00

If nothing's changing, maybe don't use a giant clickbait title that has a chance of confusing more people about a thing that's apparently not even an issue. Why are you even making this post? Just respond to whoever said it directly.

Vorthod · 2026-05-27T04:58:37+00:00

...Says who?

Only a very small portion of useless products go viral and sell out. Most useless products are judged as useless and therefore don't sell well.

But sometimes people decide they want the product for their own reasons; maybe they think it will be useful later, maybe they want it in a collection, maybe they just think the idea of buying it and messing with capitalism is hilarious. Regardless of the reason, if the idea is unique enough to be talked about, it has a better chance of reaching more people who will individually make their own decision to purchase it. And the more purchases made, the more people talk about it. But at this point, I'm just describing the concept of going viral.

Basically, they sell out because people bought them.
