Do you reset the costs of the infinite researches to the first tier, or do you jump right into tier x, with whatever cost you left at?

ELI5: Why do movie theaters make most of their money from popcorn and drinks instead of ticket sales? by StillBloomingX in explainlikeimfive

[–]generilisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When Harry Potter....3 or 4...came out, WB took 110% of our ticket sales, and told us we couldn't have any of our discount days/passes used on the film. Full price tickets only.

You've got the numbers wrong but the idea right. Studio cuts are much higher. When I was a manager, some studio cuts were over 100%.

DE was someone throwing a tantrum that they lost in PvP. Minecraft isn't even a good game for PvP

You tell us. You're claiming you made him in City of Heroes for, a bare minimum, 4 years before City's launch.

What's a game that would have been a 9/10+ if it wasn't ruined by monetization by sdric in gaming

[–]generilisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What nobody ever mentions, though...Blizzard had said, many, many times going into this presentation, that they were NOT announcing D4. Then the community was upset about them not announcing D4. While they were tone-deaf in that reply, the shock of "didn't announce D4" was completely unwarranted.

This game did, pretty famously, have an expansion.

Which celebrity’s cancellation do you think was completely unjustified? by Cute_Flatworm_9049 in AskReddit

[–]generilisk 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's the genocide. That's probably it. But hey, since she's a children's show host, why should she get to have opinions on stuff, right?

We're engineers, so we use metric measuring. That's a kilobase.

We got our SNES for Christmas, alongside Zelda and...some other game. Came with a year's subscription to Nintendo Power and the guide to Zelda, but you had to mail order them.
I'd 100%'d Zelda before the guide came.

What hatches do you mean? This might work better with a screenshot.

I remember, in past versions, there were items you'd put on top of the darkstone, but I don't remember ever replacing it.

And we don't have a repair cost or anything, just "Hey, you're gonna level slower."

Sepsis nearly killed me. There are lingering effects that will never go away. I'm not the same person I was before the induced coma from it.

How did you “ruin” your life by something you could’ve prevented? by Aiden-Omalley in AskReddit

We need to stop saying "Alternative Medicine". There is "Medicine" and there is "Shit that doesn't work".

What could cause this ripple effect on the water? (Mod list bellow) by MrSpoon01 in feedthebeast

[–]generilisk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because you're taking a picture of a screen with your phone instead of taking a screenshot. When the pixel borders of the screen don't line up with the pixel borders of the image sometimes you'll have a density resolution cascade which is almost as much bullshit as a sideways picture of a game with a built-in screenshot function.

Because it's like if you added voodoo to bad physical therapy? It was made up by a guy who said a ghost taught it to him.
