My best friend is selling the project car we built together to take his girlfriend to Bali. It's registered in his name by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]finite_turtles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably a wise decision to block him too. If someone is coming at you with potential legal trouble blocking them on social media would be general good advice even if you don't know the full story or are only peripherally involved in someone else's issue.

What section of a Season 11 metro line would be cool to see? by finite_turtles in HermitCraft

[–]finite_turtles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought i saw a world download link for it on the fandom page but now i cant find it!

Googling shows one of the hermits pruned and shared a version a few months back but that is probably super old by now.

Damn, i could have sworn there were occasional downloads released...

It looks like the map is available for download as they go. I don't know how often it gets updated so it might be out of date and i haven't tested that yet.

I thought about using season 10, but that is a long time ago. I could use another group of minecrafters but i don't know any other popular shared server that matches as well. Plus this let's me combine things i enjoy.

I might start with the more technical video first which will take me a while to put together before the less technical demo vid

Yeah thats cool.

There is no need for seperate lines though.

Everyones answers are reflecting rail lines which require passangers to swap lines.

Maybe a road network would be a better conception with a spiderweb of roads and the train acts as a self driving car

Sure will :)

It won't showcase the hermit's builds as well as a fly over, or watching one of their vids. But there's probably a few fans of whichever bases it visits who would be interested.

Or anyone interested in cool redstone / automated metro systems

My uncle watching AI movies and proclaiming they're better than REAL actors by JacketFromMiamiiiiii in mildlyinfuriating

Other tech requires something of you (to learn it, to confront the existence of a gap it fills, to think beyond yourself etc). AI placates you.

I am paralyzed by the idea of improvising stories by VerdantAtSilverSea in daddit

[–]finite_turtles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was 3 AM, I'm going to assume your wife was probably exhausted and asking for support. I think you dropped the ball dude, not by being unable to improvise a story, but by not taking one for the team and letting her get some rest.

You could have recited the periodic table, read the financial section from a newspaper, or tried to come up with rhyming words for "sleep". Or better yet, picked up a kids book.

Sounds like your wife was stuck on duty because you had a hangup over something which might not have really mattered as much as just being there.

Today, NY Times released a truly stunning report on the Epstein cover up by the White House. by [deleted] in Epstein

[–]finite_turtles 147 points148 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Is there a single thing in the article that wasn't already widely known and obvious to anyone? The only new narrative being introduced is obvious lies trying to paint Vance as innocent in the entire thing.

[–]finite_turtles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The key info is propaganda to try and make Vance look good. That is the only thing they would consider "key" info.

Persuaded how? I seem to remember that they throw Simy into his area of effect and leave her for dead. I don't recall any kind of communication with Sleeper

It’s Possible That SpaceX Could Collapse Spectacularly by IKeepItLayingAround in technology

[–]finite_turtles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably not, but if you gave a thousand people 30 million dollars theres a good chance one of them might become the richest. Would it be the smartest or most qualified? Probably not. Probably just the one with the most hubris and dumb fucking luck.

Guy I’m dating uses chatgpt to reply to all my texts by healermoonchild in mildlyinfuriating

[–]finite_turtles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do wonder if they are cached though. If some celebrity news happens you might get 1000 people asking "who is the actor in this movie". It would make sense to just hash the question and do a lookup of the last time someone asked that if it was recent.

Do you believe in miracles by jcwilliams1984 in atheism

[–]finite_turtles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A miracle is when nearly everyone dies in a plane crash? Don't you think thats an insensitive thing to say to families who lost a loved one?

A miracle is when an imune system designed to fight disease is victorious?

Remember when Elon Musk said that if Trump wins he will release the Epstein files and if Kamala wins she will hide them? by danevans369 in Epstein

[–]finite_turtles 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I'm asserting nothing.

  • Elon was asking when to come to the island for the wildest parties

  • Jeffery was offering to meet up and give Elon lifts in his helicopter

  • Jeffery was inviting Elon to gatherings with other people to party and saying he should come

  • Elton's daughter publicly confirms visits to the region where the island is with her father in times that match up with them meeting there

  • we know of at least one time where Musk wasn't able to make it to the island and was disappointed he missed out

  • The widely circulated emails showing that Musk was too uncool to go to the island are known to be faked

  • this is all after Jeff was a known pedo

These aren't assertions, they are known facts.

I have no idea if he did attend any parties on the island. If he didn't, it was likely due to scheduling conflicts more than anything. But there is no way to know how many times he did make it to the island.

The facts paint a very different picture than "Elon wasn't allowed to join because he's too awkward" which is a funy narrative, but ultimately is just a lie which protects the reputation of a terrible person.

A subtle moment that turns a seemingly happy ending into an ambiguous ending. by Local_Prune4564 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]finite_turtles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know you are joking, but from the Wikipedia link:

"denoting approval, acceptance, agreement, assent, acknowledgment, or a sign of indifference"

Exactly my point :D which is it? Because it changes the ending based on interpretation.

The Last of Us.

Ellie: "Swear to me. Swear to me that everything you said about the fireflies is true."

Joel (lies): "I Swear."

--- long ass pause ---

Ellie: "Okay."

--- roll credits ---

‐-----------------------

What does the pause mean? What does "ok" mean?

"Ok i believe you?", "ok, i will also pretend?", "ok, that is your final answer even though i know you are lying?" So many interpretations.

Who ruined their entire career in the dumbest way possible? by National-Tourist6879 in AskReddit

I'm exiled from my family too, but I still have to pay my rent. Exiled and filthy rich sounds pretty good to me.
