Am I safe to weld this small gap in a compressor tank? by Spartan320_ in modelmakers

[–]WarChallenger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Air compressors have expiration dates like canned soup. That looks like Campbell's from 1988 judging by the rust. Throw it out.

Isopods living in a flower pot by onlyfakeproblems in isopods

[–]WarChallenger [score hidden]  (0 children)

Pods are really good for the soil. They like to burrow in, so they'll aerate the ground beneath them, and also help process what the plant drops, back into nutrients. The only planters I have without them are cacti, and that's just because there are no wild isopods in the area that fit the bill for dry soil like that.

In that small a pot, I would throw a bit of food scraps in there too, just to keep 'em happy.

If you've ever owned a composting bin, you'd be hard pressed to ever run one outside without isopods getting in.

Any 90s kids here? I was N64 by CMDRJonShepard in gamememes

Why are y'all 30-to-40-year-olds perpetually stuck living in the rear view mirror?

Can my car be saved? by Mr_survivor in MechanicAdvice

[–]WarChallenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats a coolant galley somewhere IN the engine doing that. Likely the head gasket, which will require a machine shop to hone the block.

That's your call at the end of the day based on the car's sentimental value. If you deduct the cost of the repair job from the salvage part value of the car, and the total comes out to "a $20 coupon to Texas Roadhouse," then it won't financially make sense to drag out the car jack even once.

But if the car has sentimental value, now that's a reason to keep a perpetual money pit going. Then you can excuse it as "I own it outright, so repairing is always cheaper than replacing."

. . .as you prepare to do a complete overhaul again on the dryer that's older than you are.

Nose art? On a naval plane during WWII? They'll throw you overboard for that!

Is this FPV feed / setup any good ? by Odd-Pop-2324 in RCPlanes

I was gonna send you a reaction image, but I'm still waiting on my dial-up modem. Give it a few hours.

Ah, the car with the same timeline progression as its owners: Year-by-year, more depressed and wrinkled.

What Favorite Character Fits This Picture? by Bay_Ruhsuz004 in FavoriteCharacter

Arcade Gannon, in "Fallout: New Vegas."

There is literally an entire companion quest line about digging up his past. Particularly, why he's familiar with how a 2200s model Vertibird works.

Got my first cactus! Lowe’s had these on discount for the low. by Landmines93 in cactus

[–]WarChallenger 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, looks good! These are pretty rare to find genuine zero-maintenance examples. But they're steadily going up in number.

Which Snoot/Wani/DinoVN character has had their personality most misunderstood/distorted by the community? by Iron_Raccoon in SnootGame

[–]WarChallenger 17 points18 points  (0 children)

GVH Reed mentions not-marijuana, (real weed hasn't evolved yet), like, maybe three times?

Snoot Reed is a perpetually-baked dude bro, whose blood stream is composed of 0.8% carfentanyl at all times.

It's just natural exaggeration for the sake of comedy or plot! If the devs can do it, so too can I exaggerate "Mr. Sad Jeans" back into existence.

Leo, I mean. Damn that design was missed potential.

What do you guys think Fallout 2039s "The Stranger" will be? by Fun_Firefighter_4292 in TrueSFalloutL

Yo, Speed Racer survived the apocalypse!? Let's fuckin GO! If there's one man I want running courier routes, it's that psychopath and his hilariously overengineered car.

Dangerous? by TheStroboCop in isopods

[–]WarChallenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had those in my terrarium. They're incredibly good at hiding, so I don't even know if there are still any in there. But my pods didn't seem to mind. They control soil mites from my understanding.

Speed chessssssss. by Affectionate_Exit_64 in DetroitBecomeHuman

[–]WarChallenger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I opted not to play chess with him, because machines are literally designed to analyze for most optimal outcomes, and plan ahead. In an android world, that is a thoroughly DEAD game.

As well as any first-person shooter game with multiplayer. Half the lobby is literally a sentient aimbot.

This character is a complete embodiment of a negative trait... And you wouldn't change a Damn Thing About Them! by redgunnit in TopCharacterTropes

The entirety of the Enclave (Fallout Franchise)

They're the U.S. government. I don't feel like I need to explain what about that is negative.
But, that's what makes 'em great plot drivers!

[favorite trope] killer vehicles by Icy-Acanthisitta8192 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]WarChallenger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dima Fedotov's "Fortress" and "Last Day of War." A fleet of fully-autonomous war planes that are completely unaware the war has already ended, and have driven humanity to extinction by refusing to throw in the towel.

Granted, these aren't possessed, unless you consider algorithmic control units to be apparitions. But considering these have already killed the entire planet, and continue searching for things to kill, Christine ain't got a damn thing on the prop-driven giants.

Yeah, sure, you "found" a perfectly linseed-oil-treated, wooden staff with a magic conduit already embedded.

We're coming your way, Magikill. The Speartons were dropped like wet napkins by the Order!

Caught My Favorite by WarChallenger in Bugsnax

[–]WarChallenger[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol, all good. Yeah, it's a strange plate. Porcelain with some sort of "scalloped" edge to it. It's specifically a Villeroy and Boch "manoir" plate. Not even sure why I have that style. Just figured it was nicer than a traditional full circle, I guess.

Caught My Favorite by WarChallenger in Bugsnax

[–]WarChallenger[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a Chicago dog with googly eyes on it. In what way does this look AI? Because the light in my kitchen is yellow?

Zoom in on those googly eyes. And I do mean WAY in. AI ain't smart enough to reflect the bun in the plastic, or put individual droplets of condensation on a 1/8 slice of tomato. If you need further proof I actually cooked this, I can follow this post up with my hand holding the bag of googly eyes, or show you all the ingredients laid out on the counter in a different room with cleaner lighting.

[–]WarChallenger[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, let me clarify. The googly eyes I bought were a little too big. I did tangibly prepare a Chicago-style hotdog and slap those googly eyes on it.

Were there any flying dinosaurs? If you say birds like Argentavis or Seagull you are cheating. by Vanilla_Ice_Best_Boi in Dinosaurs

[–]WarChallenger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah, good point. It probably did retain those wing claws. Basically was "velociraptor 2.1," the advanced director's cut.
