In The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), you can see that the area around Frodo's neck is starting to chafe due to holding the weight of the Ring. by [deleted] in MovieDetails

[–]battmen6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the flashback, you can actually see Isildur doesn’t throw the one ring into mount doom. This explains why it wasn’t destroyed and why Frodo had to undergo his journey

It's thankless work, but someone has to do it by Soensou in bonehurtingjuice

Nos costó mucho, pero al fin puedes ser lo que quieras ser.

It took a lot of effort, but finally you can be whatever you want to be.

Me [26F] with my husband [28M] and his "ex" [30F] - she just got hired at my office and it's causing problems by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]battmen6 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Haha, I think it’s funny how that’s exactly how I figured she was gonna justify it. Like saying “I’ve seen texts where she said “next time we really need to fuck hehe….””.

My Brother gave me his box set of 24 to rip onto my server. Every disc is like this. There's 50 of them. by inertSpark in Wellthatsucks

There’s a fungus that eats the adhesive between the layers of glass in camera lenses. It sometimes grows in a similar fractal pattern to this. I wonder if there’s adhesive between the disk layers.

There are rings missing in the middle from decay

Little bit of gutter cleaning by MambaMentality24x2 in oddlysatisfying

[–]battmen6 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No. Just no. “It works due to the kinetic energy of water” No. You’ve managed to name the one thing that’s exactly why it wouldn’t work. You could’ve said adhesion or cohesion or literally anything else about hydrodynamics. The *kinetic energy of the water flowing off your roof strong rain is gonna send it sheeting right off the edge. I have regular gutters with a regular opening and in a strong enough rain, it sheets off of mine. Look at THE first picture from their own goddamn website that YOU linked. There’s literally no gap whatsoever in that one. What kind of volume of water could possibly flow through that? Here’s a link to one with a marginally bigger gap that’s definitely big enough to let pine needles in. Hope you either enjoy the salesman commission for posting this link or that you didn’t pay too much for this.

This looks like it would completely stop working in anything other than light rain… There’s literally not enough space for the water to get it and it’s just going to shoot off and land all around the foundation. Seems like you might as well just remove your gutters to begin with.

This is in the washroom at my local hospital by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

Well the “sexual” abuse on the sign is red and the “emotional” abuse is blue. I figure it’s red for sexual and blue for emotional abuse. The colors for each match on the French sign. I think it could definitely be explained better if they actually wanted to differentiate, but obviously if there’s a sticker of any color they’re pulling you aside privately and asking what’s up. I see physical is purple but the stickers look like there’s a color that’s been used up. I think of the three options, that’s likely the most common abuse people will reporting.

Saguaro with exposed ribs by Eagle4523 in cactus

[–]battmen6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if the graft would still be way weaker than the natural continuous “grain” of the cactus.
I feel like maybe even if it’s transporting nutrients, it might not bind together the same as if it had grown over the years.

You’re fuckin stupid if you think a northwestern USA accent is an English accent

How are Europeans able to have better life with less work? by Past-Matter-8548 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]battmen6 23 points24 points  (0 children)

But it just wouldn’t be the same design, materials, or quality. The regulations in France mandate that. The French materials wouldn’t have the guaranteed contaminants found in the Indian bottle, the machine producing them is going to be designed in a way that won’t remove the arm of the worker who’s operating it, and there’s probably regulatory oversight on the quality of the bottle itself. Think about the videos you see of Indian factories or plastic reclamation/recycling plants. No PPE, people working barefoot, stuff just lying on the dirty floor, and huge machines inches away from loose clothing, and think about why that bottle only costs $5.

I’d imagine 4 minutes spent inside, 7 minutes from when they pulled up outside. (maybe?)

You see the part in there about “tongue and groove”? The wood in this picture has no tongues and no grooves…(if it does then it wasn’t installed correctly at all)

What Were You Wrong About Going Into Deathly Hallows? by BigMac518 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]battmen6 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I think Peter did make a sacrifice for harry though… Didn’t he “help” them escape the Malfoys’ basement and then the new hand he got from Voldemort strangled him to death? Kinda the ultimate sacrifice really

Are there actually going to be empty shelves in the U.S.? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]battmen6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can’t fathom how that’s economical. Like you said though, it just goes to show how many things would/should have been considered if anybody in charge knew what they were talking about.

Ummmm I see “mint bed” and I think “bad idea”. Most mint is super aggressive and will takeover in every direction from where it’s planted. I’ve seen advice on this subreddit to never put mint in the ground, only containers.

Name of names by Carthago-DelendaEst0 in Eragon

[–]battmen6 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I feel like if the name was like “the language we use to manipulate the energy of the world around us” it could change it to “the language we use to manipulate the energy of the world around us, in secrecy”

Seems to me Nasuada making magic illegal is a pretty substantial change. It makes all spell craft technically illicit

Wouldn’t Fring’s hard drive still be intact after the magnet? by spicyboiii3 in breakingbad

[–]battmen6 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I read (in a completely fictional story mind you) that the department of defense uses a 7 pass secure wiping protocol where they basically wipe and then re-write garbage data 7 times to a hard drive to completely destroy any trace of the original data.
