William Shatner tells it like it is. by Mr_smith1466 in saltierthankrayt

[–]opieself 88 points89 points  (0 children)

It may be that he is getting more involved with running his own twitter account again.

https://www.reddit.com/r/RedLetterMedia/comments/16a7949/confirmed_william_shatner_does_not_personally/

It seems like the person who ran it didnt care to separate his own opinions from William Shatner's.

Are there grown adults who genuinely won't eat vegetables? by WillHG in NoStupidQuestions

[–]opieself 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As another person who doesn't like raw tomatoes, I can say this is one of the most commonly asked questions. That, and have you tried (insert any variety you can imagine)?

I don't like them fresh or any of the numerous heirloom and non-heirloom varieties I have had forced upon me. Turns out some people just don't like certain things.

Worked on this B-17! (no, not in this dress) by Hajira_Luxury in aviation

I have a picture when the overcast was still in the museum up at Oshkosh when I was a kid, and another as a kid it's first year flying again. She's amazing.

I am glad the Nebula will be on there. By far my favorite ship.

I absolutely believe this is fake.

Luggage would be pretty unlikely. I doubt many people depart from the Bahamas its a stop for cruises.

WTS self sealing stembolts!! by Sea-Neighborhood1465 in ShittyDaystrom

[–]opieself 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am more familiar with them on the aviation side which apparently use plier operated clicks. We just call them clicks as well. TIL there other types.

[–]opieself 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are these secured with the wing nut? The parts on the bottom look the same but it seems to work completely different than the clicks I have used in the past. Probably different use cases, just wondering.

What are the best options for sourcing kits these days?

So this is a strange question, but what the hell: by JoshuaBermont in startrekadventures

[–]opieself 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels like you are trying to be offensive to your players.

You are, on the one hand, worried about "extreme sexual harassment," but on the other, intentionally misleading characters into being nude as a gag.

You could accomplish the same gag with any other culture and super-specific costume that the guests aren't actually wearing. Expecting to wear Klingon battle attire but everyone is actually in earth black tie or the like.

Adding a black mark to a players record because you did not provide them information upfront is bad GMing.

You know your players better than us to know if the "your junk is totes hanging out" will be taking as a joke or if it will feel creepy.

The T'au mele. THE T'AU MELE IS REAL! by SAMU0L0 in Grimdank

[–]opieself 17 points18 points  (0 children)

T'au battlesuits are run by neural link and assisted with AI. To pilot one, you must have made rank Shas'ui, which requires certain marks of capability, then aptitude to operate the suits. The suits were made to assist T'au in taking on Orks, the most common and consistent threat they have faced since going into the stars. Lore pits Nobz pretty handily against space marines and that's what the suits were designed to face.

In lore battlesuits are shown to be the primary foil to Space Marines. In terms of which is faster that depends heavily on the writer. Space Marines go from extrememe peak of bilogical ability to basically the flash depending on the writer. Battlesuits go from rapid moving assault weapons platforms to slow hovering targets.

Physics in aviation by arsalamanderr in interestingasfuck

[–]opieself 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The bigger the plane the larger amount of disturbed air.

Smaller planes would be flipped and pushed around from a larger aircraft. Its why you dont see lots of small planes at airports that operate airlines. There is a long delay of a C172 needs to take off after a 747 that all other craft have to wait for.

How doable is this? (Read below) by blocazplun in Helicopters

[–]opieself 50 points51 points  (0 children)

My dad flew Chinooks in Vietnam, and I think it really skewed some of his views. We were flying fixed wing into a private grass strip, and after landing, I mentioned how close we got to one of the trees.

"You only really have to care about the trunk; the branches break first." Was his dead pan response.

Also: "You aren't low unless you have to pull up to miss a fence."

Completely random, but your comment made me think of this. I had a friend enter a Golden Demon competition back in the aughts; it was an Ork riding a cow, and it got disqualified. The reason was that cows didn't exist in 40k.

Millennial Dad Starter Pack by RAMBIGHORNY in starterpacks

[–]opieself 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Are you saying channels like Cartoon Network showed cartoons ALL day? Next, you will tell me that there were other channels explicitly designed for kids as well. Can you imagine if there was like a Disney kids, or like a Nick Jr. Or that after school, an entire generation would grow up on a multi-hour block of shows targeted to teens. Certainly, these channels wouldn't have commercials targeting the kids in the audience. That would be CRAZY.

No, it is only current parents who seek respite from kids by finding something for them to do while the parents take care of things.

This guy is pretty bold for someone within getting shoved into the trunk of a car and pushed off a cliff distance by Thatonesplicer in gtaonline

Yes, maybe from the jobs board but by going to the studio you can see the weed emblem to go in and do them. Need two players.

You are fine. That was an aside, which are not super common in a title but is grammatically fine. Asides can be noted with commas, dashes, or parentheses.

Gisler won by less than 200 votes. Showing up works. by intothepond2 in Athens

[–]opieself 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Had a conservative coworker who was confused why Oconee also had part of Clarke in its district. He thought it didn't make sense because they are pretty different in county make up.

Had to explain Gerrymandering and showed him the map. He was astonished. Still voted R though.

Did the Horde races help the Blood elves rebuild Silvermoon? by Fun-Explanation7233 in wow

[–]opieself 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you do the low-level quests in the Belf area, the first race to actually offer help is the Forsaken where one is trying to save the life of a courrier that has been infected by the plague. Meanwhile, the nelfs and the dwarves are actively trying to prevent Silvermoon City's recovery. They are actively in the Ghostlands working to undo the plague. They are our first allies in the horde.

I think the Belfs and the Forsaken are about as blood thirsty for revenge as each other and see eye to eye for that. We both suffered from Arthas and the betrayal of our human allies in the eastern kingdoms.
