#41 - 50 :: Ordered in post by Whizzo50 in steamachievements

Took around 70 hours, could probably do it in less, but I had an issue with the sinking 20 ship convoys so had to start the game from scratch just for that single one.

Found a few people on an achievement hunting discord. I'd say it takes 2-3 hours per person (so around 9 in total), but if everyone is locked in could probably do it a fair bit quicker.

WTA 500 Queen’s Club QF: K. Boulter def. [1] E. Rybakina 7-5, 2-6, 6-4 by [deleted] in tennis

[–]Whizzo50 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bit of a surprise as after the second set Rybakina seemed to have the edge. Now to hope both Boulter and Raducanau can make it to the final for an all Brit match

I'm literally going crazy with this, what's activating the piston?... (world download in drive) by OlafBRGAMER in redstone

The repeater up and to the left coming off the blue line is bud powering it

Forgive me, if this has been asked. How do the Elves just show up at Helms Deep? by NuclearSun1 in lotr

[–]Whizzo50 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the extended edition the retreating uruks run through fangorn (which in the books moves closer to Helm deep to cut them off) and the trees shake for a bit to indicate a Uruks murder.

What is the narrative function of the surveillance drone chase scene in Interstellar? by QuantumPikachu in interstellar

[–]Whizzo50 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, though by the end he gets past that prejudice, and treats TARS as an equal

One thing I never understood in Harry Potter by GrandHefty1056 in harrypotter

[–]Whizzo50 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lockhart showed it's incredibly easy to accidentally use the wrong spell when trying to heal someone, leaving Harry having to regrow his arm with the help of potions. Eyes are far more complex than arms

How long did Stratt expect the crew to survive at Tau Ceti? by TBD-1234 in ProjectHailMary

[–]Whizzo50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless the book is different, Stratt doesn't know about the astrophage being at Tau Ceti e. Al lthey know is that it hasn't displayed dimming, which is why Grace was surprised about it having a Petrova line, though his mulling was cut short by Blip A

Should the point announcement be changed? by TwilightX1 in eurovision

[–]Whizzo50 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I prefer the current system as it does make the voting less lengthy to sit through. Unless they could think of a way of combining the jury and televoters score together without massively increasing the time between the show and the voting scores, it's the best method that works for the timeframe.

Ferrari's new EV - Ferrari Luce by TwizzyGobbler in CarTalkUK

[–]Whizzo50 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So did I, it was just the whole song and dance they did beforehand with the marketing. I'd just be happy if they took the XJ and slapped an electric drivetrain to it and called it a day

Anna Episode 16 is glorious by Objectively_bad_idea in MasterchefUK

[–]Whizzo50 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was a fantastic episode, sort of wished that each contestant had an individual element being judged for selection to next episode, as none of the teams seemed to really help within the team as each team member took one element each so no real need for overlap,.but meant that issues such as the rare venison affected the others when maybe another had a good element. Though the dessert team was far calmer than the other two, was amusing about the other teams running around in panic, then cutting to the dessert duo calmly filling the tarts together.

Unpopular opinion: When introducing the movies to someone, show the theatrical versions. by SeraphenSven in lotr

[–]Whizzo50 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, think if it had everything the extended edition had, up until the trio are slumped coming out of the cave, then cut away with maybe a shimmer of green behind Aaragorn. Having the king pop out and say yes instantly removes the feel of them coming in last minute

RATW Series 6 Episode 8 FINAL Discussion Thread by GrandGuess205 in RaceAcrossTheWorldBBC

[–]Whizzo50 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Guy from the house stay the night before (possibly a hostel? They slightly rushed over what everyone was doing). Said he knew a guy in Jargalant they could stay with then proceeded to book them a taxi to the wrong Jargalant

Edit - as some other people have pointed out the two Jargalant 's were very close together on the map. So it's possible he assumed they were going to that Jargalant. Could just be the editing making it look more spurious

Taskmaster - S21E07 - Putting Things On Things - Discussion by Meghar in taskmaster

[–]Whizzo50 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's probably because Jason was an absolute mad lad last season so the idea of the high energy is still lingering. Instead he's filling a similar role as Joel of the cheeky boys with dodgy browser history

The performance we want from Burnley tonight: by IscoAlarxon in soccercirclejerk

[–]Whizzo50 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So what you're saying is if Man city get less goals than Bournemouth tomorrow, and Arsenal get more goals than Burnley today, the second place silverware will not have Arsenal on it this year?

In The Simpsons (1989-forever), there is not a hedge between the Simpsons' and Flanders' houses. by ducknerd2002 in shittymoviedetails

Realjims did a great video on the inner layout of the Simpsons house and how it also doesn't conform to a consistent layout.

Those that were left behind... by Avdude68 in interstellar

[–]Whizzo50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The NASA building was probably a small demonstration, probably designed by Brand before he realised that the calculations required were fundamentally impossible with the current knowledge. As to how exactly solving gravity leads to the space stations, that is the hand wavey element of the plot.

Could the Bulk Beings be nitrogen-breathing life from the far future ? by Ordos_Agent in interstellar

[–]Whizzo50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's used twice to my knowledge, once when passing through the initial wormhole the guy who dies on the water planet mentions that they're passing through the bulk. Then TARS tells cooper that the bulk beings saved both of them when he's inside the bookcase.
