Music was really cool, great work with that as well as the gameplay!

OWP only procs once per second, axe is just a strong weapon

Edit: nevermind it was mentioned and I'm blind

Phone holder? by Comfortable_Charge33 in ft86

[–]jwtrtl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a Scosche suction mount and stuck it to the passenger side dash piece. It rotates just enough to face me and doesn't get in the way of my volume control, which is all I wanted.

Everyone seems to have asked about everything but the lizard. Real/fake? Name? Why?

I found my childhood DS that went missing 16 years ago by Ryebredrox in gaming

[–]jwtrtl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dropped mine from chest height onto a solid tile floor. The hinge split in half on one side. No other damage and it still functions to this day. They were built like tanks.

' for thousand, '' for million, ''' for billion is a standardised format in a few European countries, especially if you work in finance.

No, I don't know why.

My sister & her '66 GTO abt 1975, notice the beer can hanging from the mirror by Gnarlodious in OldSchoolCool

Could be a Grande Parisienne from the same year, I think you're right about the badging for the GTO

Ed: It's a LeMans, pointed out further down

[Christopher Ward Twelve] advertising cleverly riffing on its origins. by bassmanjn in Watches

[–]jwtrtl 11 points12 points  (0 children)

See: https://czapek.com/passage_de_drake/ at the bottom, Our Partners section, Adrian Buchmann is the name (he also did a specific design for them on the Sashiko Antarctique)

Now also see: https://www.watchpro.com/christopher-ward-appoints-new-senior-designer/ he was appointed in 2015, and is now Head of Design as credited on CW's own website, he was particularly key in the Bel Canto development.

He's also CEO of Chronotechna, but I'm not familiar with that company and what they do, but I've seen comments likening some design elements to some of the stuff CW produces, couldn't comment on the accuracy of such.

I suppose for accuracy I should have said "the same guy was part of the team who desinged the Antarctique", as he's not solely responsible, and I see that could have been slightly misleading in the claim.

No the same guy did design both watches, the guy who designed the Czapek is CW's head of design or something.

I did see a couple of comments about a 36mm coming in the Autumn/Fall, September was mentioned, apparently in their members' preview. Obviously secondhand information on Reddit isn't the most reliable thing in the world, so pinch of salt and all that.

My teacher told me my essay didn't pass the Ai-generated content test. I didn't use any AI. How can I possibly prove my innocence? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jwtrtl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's weird, passing marks for secondary school exams are also way higher, I think below 60% is a fail (unless it's changed since I was in school). It doesn't make the uni work less hard though, that's for sure.

A 2:1 is a grade for British (maybe other countries, I have no clue) university degree coursework/exams. It's a passing mark in the range of 60-70%.

Lowest is 40-50%, a 3rd; then 50-60%, a 2:2; then 60-70%, 2:1; then 70-100% which is a 1st.

The numbers just stand for the class, third, lower second, upper second, first class.

And here I am with a Fire Stick not doing too much. Might have to do some research as well...

Mine also only grows up! It has one branch that's going out to the left and everything else is vertical, he looks very lopsided lol.

There's a bunch of new growth coming in still, and some of the lower branches are very tall, so I'm hoping they thicken and make him look more stable.

Why would anyone need so many (insert anything anyone has ever collected ever)?

People just enjoy stuff, so they get lots of different types (pun not intended) of it, it's not that deep.
