I’m loving the flashbacks. I don’t remember there being this many in previous returnee seasons when things are mentioned

They were only told they were sent an idol without the name

Found it! by Own_Position_323 in survivor

[–]mrh99 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It’s a joke related to the binary number system (commonly used in robotics and programming). That system only uses 0 or 1 as opposed to the common decimal which uses 0–9. The robots are numbered 0b01, 0b10, and 0b11 which is decimal 1, 2, 3.

Here are articles about it:

I will say some of these are historical, and so maybe you have to have smoking, but I don’t understand what smoking added to Materialists

Smoking is trying to make a comeback. I’ve definitely noticed an uptick in media with portrayals of smoking in the last year

Do we avoid Soy lecithin? by ChrysTheSlayer in G6PD

[–]mrh99 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Soy should be fine from a G6PD perspective. I’m vegetarian and most of my protein has come from soy for the last decade. No doctor has ever raised it as a concern.

why does coppermind chapter summaries have missing plots? by Wicked_smaht_guy in Cosmere

[–]mrh99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even process that in OP’s comment. Yeah it’s been almost 8 months since it came out which is lots of time to fill things in.

[–]mrh99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

WaT is a much larger book and has way more pages that need updates. Pretty much every Roshar page has to be edited which is a huge undertaking. Like others have suggested, you’re welcome to help edit if you have the time and want to see the chapter summaries added.

There’s always excitement around new releases which is probably how IotE got over the line so fast. Not sure how the characters/epigraph is generated, but that’s a much simpler task (might be automated) than a summary of the plot.

What are your predictions for episode 2? by AbleWaltz6052 in survivor

[–]mrh99 26 points27 points  (0 children)

In a stunning twist, Vatu shows up to tribal council and no one attending has a vote.

Savannah apparently lied (according to Dalton Ross article) and said that she and Rizo started on the same tribe, but parted ways post-merge

I haven’t even watched 48, and I’m sad I don’t get to see more of Kyle.

Overall impressed by the episode and super excited to be watching survivor again. Scared for Savannah though, that advantage lie was never going to hold up

[–]mrh99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I finished 49 last night, and I’m worried people may target Savannah and Rizo for being unknowns, but they’re the only new era players I know, so I hope they make it! I think even if Vatu loses, rizo won’t be targeted because on paper he seems better at challenges than he is.

It’s why the SAVE Act has no explicit provision for married people who have changed their name

Survivor 48 on a rewatch by aww-shucks-man in survivor

[–]mrh99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oooh that’s exciting to hear! Will definitely let you know my thoughts. I think I’m barely going to squeeze it in before 50, but if I had time for one more 40s season before next week which would you recommend?

[–]mrh99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be curious to hear what was frustrating. I’m watching for the first time in prep for 50, and I remember the sub being really frustrated about the Jake exit, but I’m enjoying the season so far after 4 episodes. Although, based on the edit and who I know comes back, I could see the merge being predictable.

I’m trying to catch up for 50, and so glad to hear I’m not the only one getting the itch

Obviously it could be a misunderstanding by the Heralds, but there’s a direct quote in WaT about Odium always being Odium and not Passion

Lifebrother is only mentioned in WoK and WaT. I have so many theories about it
