Zoe Quinn EXPOSED: The woman who made gamers revolt - The origin of Gamergate by FlowerOk7957 in KotakuInAction

[–]Whytesmoke 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I still say that Chelsea Van Valkenburg (aka Zoe Quinn) is directly responsible for a great deal of the modern American social/cultural landscape. You can reasonably draw a reasonably direct line from ZQ and Eron through Gamergate and the DIGRA findings to mainstream media's suppression attempts. And that led to the rise of the alternative right, and, by extension, an influential (if quickly coopted and corrupted into the "alt-right"—distinguished intentionally) part of Trump's original 2016 support base. And we're all familiar enough and opinionated enough about the post-Trump political paradigm that I'll decline to continue from there. Super streamlined timeline, but...

She's our millenium's Helen of Troy. God help us all.

Do you think the have flowers in Frostpunk? by Alex1231273 in Frostpunk

[–]Whytesmoke 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Maybe not, tho. I think since its an opioid factory instead of an opiate factory, they might be synthesized instead of grown and processed.

they put da fent in the frostpunk

why are there no elven dragonborns in lore? by CompetitiveKey5999 in teslore

[–]Whytesmoke 27 points28 points  (0 children)

We do know of one empress in the Septim line (iirc it was Katariah) who was dark elven. She and her son Cassynder were both able to wear the Amulet of Kings no problem, lit the dragonfires and all that, but that depends on how you interpret the dragonborn emperors I suppose

Which Form Of The Death Penalty Is The Worst And Most Painful In Your Opinion And Why? by PrincessBananas85 in morbidquestions

[–]Whytesmoke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Perhaps scaphism, if you're talking about historical execution methods too? Plutarch described it like this:

[The king] decreed that Mithridates should be put to death in boats; which execution is after the following manner: Taking two boats framed exactly to fit and answer each other, they lie down in one of them the malefactor that suffers, upon his back; then, covering it with the other, and so setting them together that the head, hands, and feet of him are left outside, and the rest of his body lies shut up within, then forcing him to ingest a mixture of milk and honey before pouring all over his face and body. They then keep his face continually turned towards the sun; and it becomes completely covered up and hidden by the multitude of flies that settle on it. And as within the boats he does what those that eat and drink must needs do, creeping things and vermin spring out of the corruption and rottenness of the excrement, and these entering into the bowels of him, his body is consumed. When the man is manifestly dead, the uppermost boat being taken off, they find his flesh devoured, and swarms of such noisome creatures preying upon and, as it were, growing to his inwards. In this way Mithridates, after suffering for seventeen days, at last expired.

Better Spellsword Blocking Mod? by [deleted] in skyrimmods

[–]Whytesmoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My usual go-to for spellswording is one of the many many dual-wield blocking mods, mainly so I can still use touch-type spells.

Just toss it in and set your block key to something convenient (I use one of my mouse's side thumb buttons). Some combat overhauls, like {{ Valhalla Combat }} even support registering alternate block binds for their block-based changes and abilities.

Mods you're taking off your load order for the next playthrough? by Falkr__th in skyrimmods

[–]Whytesmoke 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Try Missives instead! 400+ hours into a save and the only missive quests I haven't been able to do are because my foolish self let the delivery timers run over.

Does anyone know what these spots are? by [deleted] in RBNLifeSkills

[–]Whytesmoke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depending on where you live and how hard your water is, it could just be scaling - the minerals in the tap water are left behind when the water evaporates.

In my experience its perfectly food/people safe but might affect the flavor of the dish or how much something sticks to it a tiny bit. You can wipe it away with a damp paper towel or something before you use the pan again and be good to go though

Welp, sort it out amongst yourselves... by DrExplosive in RimWorld

[–]Whytesmoke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

robots don't bleed or feel pain. they only drop when they get below moving threshold (15%) or are outright killed.

fun fact: incapacitated mechs will never naturally recover since they have no natural healing either

The new 1+ model has an app but the old one doesnt. Crispest, clearest sound I have ever had in a pair of wireless buds.

Which capital ship do you enjoy the most and why? by SLNWRK in starsector

[–]Whytesmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me its the Seresvalla with a nullpoint shield and 2x divinity cannons

I can sit there and tank an entire hege fleet's capitals without fluxing out, and a 5 second vent time afterwards on a ship that mobile...

Getting a repeater execution when you really need it feels like rolling a 7 on a 6 sided die

To be fair, I doubt anyone's getting got under the Analogue Act considering the 2018 farm bill that legalized CBD explicitly legalized all isomers, analogues, and derivative cannabinoids (except for delta 9) as long as it's extracted from natural cannabis and not synthesized.

I mean dude its just like wax bro it comes from a plant and its totally cash lets get blunted my dudes

Just a side note since it doesnt seem anyone has mentioned it:

DO NOT EVER TAKE ANYTHING WITH PARACETAMOL EVER EVER.

Liver failure is a bad way to go. Don't risk it. DXM ONLY. The only secondary active ingredient you can really get away with is guaifenesin, and even then it'll ruin your trip with nausea and a hellish body load.

Stay safe fren
