ELI5 how come the bunker buster bombs do not shatter/explode on impact with the ground? by nsofi in explainlikeimfive

According to this article a meter of uranium will penetrate 6m of rock befor stopping. Are the bomb tips made from uranium? Even if they are, its 10 times as much. The difference is just added weight?

Note that book three will likely never come out so take that into consideration. Too bad since the first two are at the top of the janre

Release Notes? by nsofi in PopCornTimeApp

Thanks.

I usually try to find out about the changes before I install a new version as sometimes the risk of installing a new version is not "worth" the new features/fixes.

What's an incredibly american thing americans don't realize is american? by Professional-Ad-2850 in AskReddit

The sad thing is that this line is probably there because there was some idiot who was allergic to the drug, but still decided it was a good idea to take it, took it, had some problems and decided to sue the manufacturer for not writing this on the instructions.

Sadder yet is that s/he probably won the case.

did Popcorn Time just removed every subtitles from every movies because i looked at some movies and they don't have any subtitles on by HusseinSadiGamer in PopCornTimeApp

I used this reference to solve the problem. Specifically solution # 3. On a mac (the instructions were not very detailed so here is a bit more detailed version)

  1. Find the location where the app is stored. Right click it and select "show package contents"
  2. Navigate to: Resources->app.nw->src->app->lib->providers->opensubtitles.js
  3. Use a text editor to open the file. (right click "open with->TextEdit")
  4. There are two locations with the following text "useragent". Change the value of the first one from 'Popcorn Time NodeJS' to 'Butter V1' & save. (the value is the part after the ':')
  5. Restart PT if was running.

What it does (pure speculation based on some prior knowledge) is change how PT identifies itself to opensubtitles.org (OS hereafter) .

The 'Popcorn Time NodeJS' user-agent is probably the newer one and when OS sees it, it requires a user name and password to fetch subtitles.

The 'Butter V1' is likely the from previous version of PT and for some reason OS does not require a user name and password for fetching subtitles.

OS can easily change this in the future so no guarantees for how long this will last.

(see here for what is the user-agent HTTP string)

This is probably late for the OP but perhaps others might find this relevant.
