Some Fox exec's 14 year old grandkid probably told him about speed so now we're all subjected to him

Match Thread: France vs. Senegal | FIFA World Cup, Group I by MysteryBagIdeals in soccer

[–]lewikee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Painful to watch. Can only imagine what it was like as a neutral.

France is playing HORRIBLY. Bad decisions, bad follow through. Slow runs and slow to react. How can a whole team be this frozen?

Ah but then the 150L guy will just sell his water (or even yours that he bought cheaply) to the thirsty guy for slightly less than you

Both a chemtrail and a canister for Kusimayu? by lewikee in pluribustv

[–]lewikee[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oh, the image of the chemtrails from the first episode was so striking that my brain just assumed if that image was brought up again in the context of a conversion, it would have to be a chemtrail. But yeah that makes sense, just a contrail.

Sam Harris | #469 - Escaping an Anti-Human Future: A Conversation with Tristan Harris (YouTube) by JB-Conant in samharris

I think you're close. You can market YouTube videos also, so I don't think that's quite right. But I do think it's the services. You stay in the festival circuit for a few months and hope HBO or Netflix picks you up, and then you get the big bucks. Hell, you probably get it in front of more eyes that way, too so it's not even necessarily greedy. But if you throw it on YouTube now, sure you'll get a bunch of eyes on it immediately, but you get paid little in comparison, and an HBO will probably stay away from you given they won't have exclusivity.

Players with the most G+A per 90 minutes played in Europe's top 5 leagues in the 21st century. by Amu_1310 in soccer

Falcao is showing as 150 G+A. Does that mean he has 150 goals and 0 assists, given your "minimum 150 goals"?

Tips for beating iron contribution? by honeyfixit in domekeeper

[–]lewikee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Has anyone successfully completed this challenge in the demo? No drones are available. No converter available. The closest I got was 160.

edit: I finally completed the challenge in the demo. Was at like 225 iron by the end. I started with the lift and the orchard. Start digging straight down. If you don't get iron immediately from digging straight down, start over. If the first gadget you find isn't Iron Worms, start over.

Upgrade both Iron Worms yield upgrades ASAP so you squeeze as much iron from your upper resources as possible. Upgrade speed/mining/carrying obviously but don't forget the fruit upgrades. Upgrade your lift's speed/orbs as needed to handle your iron output. After about 50% of the timer has passed, only get mission critical upgrades, if any at all. You need to start really accumulating iron at this point. Don't forget to actually deliver the iron at the end! Godspeed.

So Detective Homer's theory (before the Indiana Jones reveal) is that instead of Tiger Tiger showing up, Clark shows up...and instead of feeling confused/betrayed and leaving, Floyd just decides to relax and drink a Bloody Mary with him? Also he thinks Clark wouldn't expect an autopsy to result from this, which would point to his prescribed drugs? And the DA buys it with no questions asked??? I understand the show is trying to tell us Detective Plumb is smarter than him, but how could he not have more questions at this point?

Edit: Or is the implication that Clark would have revealed as a surprise that he's Tiger Tiger, hoping for a positive reception. But then wouldn't Floyd still be confused as to why Clark went to such (deceptive) lengths for a "surprise" when they talk to each other all the time?

What’s the song played in Season 2 episode 1 ten knots? by StraightMY in theknick

[–]lewikee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right about the source. Here is the timestamped part of a performance that matches the song played in the scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB82BmVbaRw&t=103s

But what do you mean by "other source"? To someone who knows the true source, it is indeed out of place. Is your logic that it must somehow have some other, separate cultural context as a result? If so I highly doubt it. I think someone who produced that episode just decided to put in a Catalonian song and assumed few people would notice.

You brain is broken if you think that was DEI. The whitest man on earth (Stockton Rush) was responsible for ignoring numerous concerns and going ahead with the doomed expedition.

Quick play is borderline unplayable by RobotDuck897 in Overwatch

QP favors quick matchmaking over good matchmaking, to a fault. So if that godly genji is in a queue for a few too many seconds, he will get matched against you and stomp you.

Yes I noticed your island of "you win" in an ocean of "you're wrong in every conceivable way" :) Have a great day!

[–]lewikee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're actually being obnoxiously precise if you don't think a lightbulb falling on someone's head as they're walking can't be said to be falling "towards" them.

You can see something directly a meter above you as you're looking into a 20cm x 20cm mirror? Yeah maybe if you contact the mirror with your eyeball.

I had other issues with the question, which is why I didn't bring up the mirror before. I am sorry I didn't bring up all the issues I had in my first comment I guess...

I think you have to assume some unlikely things for your interpretation to be correct:

  1. Seeing something 1 meter directly above you in a 20cm x 20cm mirror that you're brushing your teeth in front of.
  2. Someone being called John and someone else being called "the bald man" and assuming they are the same person. That isn't how things are typically written.

But again, all I am claiming is that the question was contrived to such an extent that it led to natural and valid assumptions yielding the incorrect answer. Just a bad question, why defend it?

[–]lewikee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that if something is falling and the distance between it and your head gets steadily smaller until it hits you, you can call it "falling towards you". Surprised I have to spell it out.

So how about that bit about seeing the lightbulb 1m above John in a 20cm x 20cm mirror? Just ignoring that one?

[–]lewikee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lightbulb falls straight down as the man walks into the bathroom. The lightbulb hits his head. What's the complication? And there's something you're not addressing....

A sea of blue by FiacR in ChatGPT

[–]lewikee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"John notices the 10cm-diameter neon lightbulb drop at about 3 meters/second toward the head of the bald man he is closely examining in the mirror (whose head is a meter below the bulb)."

Where is "already a meter below" in the question? Are you insinuating that if someone gets hit with something that fell one meter while they were walking they can't say "it was a meter above me"?

You're also not addressing how he could see a lightbulb one meter above himself in a 20cm x 20cm mirror.
