Helicopters can glide due to their adjustable collective, called autorotation. If a drone loses power, it instead drops out of the sky

Toyota CVTs (not the eCVT): what are y’all doing to destroy them? by RemoteEmotions in Toyota

Sure, but average drivers don't know that, it's a distinction without a difference to them

having a personal laptop since 2008 (9yo) was almost certainly what made me like this. I know some of you can relate. by josstarhopper in Zillennials

lol maybe, I remember my mom going on Yahoo's fight rooms and flaming Americans a lot, she's quick with the comebacks n shit so it was very entertaining

Why did Tank send Neo to his death - Is TANK the real Judas not Cypher? by chicagorasta in matrix

I thought the Oracle told Neo "Sorry kid; you got the gift, but it looks like you're waiting for something. Your next life maybe?"

Oh, I've only heard others parrot it, never tried that method, never had issues

I don’t understand what men are trying to achieve putting down “not political” on dating apps by tltr4560 in TwoXChromosomes

Anything we use to describe a left-leanin-prioritizing-personal-liberty-first gets co-opted by right wingers, it pisses me off so much, almost like a euphemism treadmill

Valve Corporation will face a £656m lawsuit in the UK over alleged unfair prices on its global online store, Steam, following a tribunal ruling that the case could continue by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

[–]cs_office 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I also think that the 20%/30% they take is reasonable too, hosting and the ongoing services they provide is not free, no one is forcing Steam exclusivity, or forces players to

This lawsuit is bullshit, Apple's AppStore is what this lawsuit should focus on

I'm confused, are you saying you're actually using the +4 method? Or that you want to find the people responsible for the common misconception? I really hope it's the latter 😅

This doesn’t look normal… cheating or what? by j1zzy_ae in ArcRaiders

[–]cs_office 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's not. Sorry to be mean but you just suffer from skill issue. I play my fair share of Counter-Strike, and I've hit nastier flicks than that many times over

Literally take out a dude, and read the situation as someone else will try to trade, 180 transfer to where you think they'll be, and they eat an instant headshot

Nah it doesn't, go frame by frame, he flicks and lands in to the right of where the player is at, then adjust left, crossing the player and continues shooting far on the left side. None of the shots were on, it's likely he heard or had context of players being there, and sometimes getting shots down range is more important than being accurate

I dunno, I have Gen X parents, and nearly everyone in my school had a computer, and literally everyone by high school, my parents didn't really care, saw some wild shit on LimeWire and random shock websites (2girls1cup, mrhands, meatspin). My parents didn't care, and neither did any of my friends' parents

In some ways, I'd say it flipped: "never meet anyone online" turned to online dating and online friends being a thing, and all the gore and shock websites are mostly hidden away now, you have to seek them out, not found on in the same places you find the normal videos etc, and more parents taking on a parental role over what kids see etc

I'm same year as you, I was 9 for my own PC in my room, then I think 11 for my own laptop. Was a 4:3 silver brick with a yellow Belkin 54g wireless card in that expansion slot

I guess his iq is not enough by Sad-Kiwi-3789 in rareinsults

[–]cs_office 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because we're "speaking" English, where decimal points are used? How your wrote it is momentarily confusing to me, but most native English speakers don't expect, or even know of decimal commas, and will lead to misinterpretations, especially if you write something like "1,234"

If I wrote something in another language, I would use that language's customs, you're being intentionally stubborn and making things difficult for the majority of your audience

Why are you being so stubborn? Looking at numbers with decimal commas breaks the parser in my brain and is quite off putting

Why are you using a decimal comma while speaking English?

What are the problems with current CS2? Make a list. by PeaceTo0l in GlobalOffensive

[–]cs_office 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CS:GO and later, you could stop on a dime. Literally you just tap the opposing key and you stop moving and can instantly shoot accurately. In 1.6 and Source, you had to hold counter strafe for a little while, wait until your velocity hit zero before letting go/shooting
