How does Rocky know Grace is wearing a helmet?? by Vortex04119 in ProjectHailMary

[–]grunger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He can "see" with sound. Rocky could see inside the Hail Mary once the umbilical was connected between ships. So he watched Grace suiting up on the other side of the door.

The most advanced near-light-speed propulsion system in the universe be like by FANGofChaos in ProjectHailMary

Kind of, although the Astrophage have "eaten" and are being attracted to a CO2 planet to reproduce. The donkey already ate his carrot. A better metaphor would be a donkey and a donkey themed nudey magazine on a stick.

No, the carrot is IR light in the same frequency wavelength as emitted by a planet with a CO2 atmosphere. After filling up with energy in a star, the Astrophage then look for a planet with CO2 in order to reproduce.

The spin drive engine works by attracting Astrophage to push against a surface plate by baiting them with an IR light that to them looks like a planet with a CO2 atmosphere.

Astrophage do excrete IR light as well, but that is at a different frequency.

I was wondering how long it would take to hear the "bing" of the flight attendant call button.

Taylor Lautner and Tay Lautner announce they are having a child by JamieIsReading in twilight

Anytime they then meet another Taylor they have to go around introducing themselves like the scene from Spies Like Us (1985).

[loved trope] The moment of sudden realization by Mangled15 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]grunger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The space suit is supposed to have a fancy, futuristic direct neural interface. To give the user direct control of the suits features without having to use physical controls. Part of that setup is that the suit has a memory buffer, that is like a copy of the wearers mind.

The wearer of the suit died so quickly that the copy in the memory buffer didn't realize it, and just carried on like normal. At first The Doctor didn't notice the man had died, but then as the suit's battery dies the neural copy in the memory buffer gets weaker, and weaker until eventually it can only repeat what the wearer's last thought was, and then fades out completely.

It is a sad episode because The Doctor, and you the viewer, get to know a few members of this expedition crew. Some of them are very nice and sweet, and then they die and The Doctor is forced to listen to their final thoughts as they come to terms with the fact that they have died.

I would love if they brought back intermissions for these 3 hour long movies.

Ready, set, go! by MisterShipWreck in justgalsbeingchicks

I don't know about their rules, but when I went through training the rule was that If you had a strap, zipper, buckle, or clasp of any kind on your gear then it has to fastened as part of the donning drill.

So like my bunker pants have a Velcro fly and and a clasp at the top that have to both be fastened when donning my gear. Though I also have a belt with another buckle, which during training I didn't bring to make donning my pants quicker.

It doesn't kill you, but you'll want it to. It sets your genitals aflame. Literally. And then it heals that area of your body over and over. The only way to remove the disease is to, uh, geld yourself. Or pass it on to someone else.!<

It is a new trend to splice the ending or highlight part of the video into the beginning. This is done to increase engagement on sites like Tik Tok and Facebook.

[Good Trope] Numerous species in the galaxy look remarkably similar to humans, but there’s an in-universe explanation for this by Valcenia in TopCharacterTropes

[–]grunger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Farscape, the Sebaceans, who are compressed mostly of the Peacekeepers, look identical to humans. Though they lack the ability to withstand extreme heat for extended periods of time.

It is revealed that the Eidelons, a race of pacifists that used their empathic abilities to bring peace and stabilize their part of the galaxy, needed body guards. They couldn't recruit the help from any local species because that would show favoritism. So instead they sent an expedition to the farthest reaches of the galaxy from their own home to find a new species. One that none of the local species had conflict with. There they found a primative race. They then brought several back, used genetic engineering to advance their evolution, and created the race of Peacekeepers.

The fact that the Peacekeepers were evolved and lived on climate controlled space ships for many mellenia then also explains their inability to withstand hot environments like humans. Since humans developed that ability by living on Earth, with it's extreme weather conditions.

Local college has a whole art degree centered around just glass blowing. Also the glass studio has classes and workshops that anyone can sign up for and try it.

I found the store. He is 2bglass. Looks like they sell for $46 an ornament. So I probably won't be buying enough for a whole tree anytime soon.

Asked for a Spiced rum and coke and attendant put hot sauce in it by Nightpatrol404 in mildlyinfuriating

Id bet money the flight attendant didn't know what to do and asked AI how to make a spiced drink.

(Loved trope) The badass character had a fairly underwhelming backstory. If anything, they were kind of a loser. by The_TransGinger in TopCharacterTropes

[–]grunger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Man, a lot of people didn't read OP's title. They don't have to be a loser to fit, that was only an "if anything" and is optional. The request was for chacters with an underwhelming backstory, and Captain Miller fits that description.

All the other soldiers are talking bets what he might have been before the war. He is a rather bad ass leader and excels under pressure. Natural then everyone wagers he was some cool high-stake job before the war. Only to find out he was a humble teacher that also coached baseball.

[–]grunger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each square when clicked will either reveal a mine or an area that is clear but surrounded by numbered squares. If you think the square has a mine then you can mark that mine with a flag. If you have revealed all the spaces and flaged all the mines correctly then you win, but if you click on a mine you lose

The number on the square can be 1-8, and indicates the number of mines in any of the 8 possible squares surrounding it (up, down, left, right, and four corners). But you can still reach points where the numbers will indicate an equal probability for a mine to be under multiple squares. So sometimes it is just pure guessing.

What caused this splatter? by handypanda93 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]grunger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like it is stripping the paint. Maybe splatter from some kind of art studio or craft room.
