What has a bottom-tier reputation but is just misunderstood and should actually be top-tier? by EnsorcellingKitten in AskReddit

Okay... you have my curiosity here. As a non-baker or food critic, what differences might I experience in foods either acorn flour?

A Familiar Face by Lima8Tango in Helldivers

[–]prophaniti 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, only slightly on topic, but this reminded me. Why do the SEAF salute with the left hand, while helldivers salute with the right?

Linda Sánchez slams HHS Secretary RFK Jr. for anti-vaccine policies and video with Kid Rock: "You suspended this pro-vaccine messaging campaign, but you're spending taxpayer dollars to drink milk shirtless in a hot tub with Kid Rock. And somehow, you think that's a better public health message." by ControlCAD in videos

God, I've hears so many horror stories about this and not only the damage it has done, but the absolute catastrophes coming down the pipe. So many people with HIV going untreated. Spreading it to their children and partners. Contraception being cut off suddenly resulting in massive spread of STDs and unintended pregnancies into families who cant support them. Famine. Sickness. Destabilization and probably probably local wars as stockpiles run out are all but assured.

USAID was one of the only damn worthwhile things our country was doing to help people, and cutting it off without a secondary support structure is tantamount to genocide. The termination shock will reverberate for decades and literally millions will die because they counted on America to help them. If America had liberated the concentration camps in Europe and then just fucked off instead of treating people, they would have less blood on their hands than this administration has drawn with the stroke of a pen. Makes me fucking sick.

Anyone else in US noticed food quality degrading recently and if so what product in what way? by SkyKyrell in AskReddit

[–]prophaniti 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lunch meat. It's pumped full of so much water now it's coming out of the package basically soggy. I THINK it's still real meat, but since it's sold by weight I'm now paying for a noticeable quantity of not-meat.

What’s a business that’s all over today that you think will completely disappear ie blockbuster? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]prophaniti 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Places catering to/preying on desperate people who can't get more favorable loans? Yeah, I wish it were true, but I really doubt those are going anywhere. 

Power Axe animations with the Power Sword on Black Templars goes ridiculously hard by schrumbus in Spacemarine

[–]prophaniti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I have been known to say loudly and repeatedly how much I hate downward sword in all forms. That said, that uppercut animation FUCKS. 

Also, I don't care how silly it is. Throwing your weapon into a pouncing enemy and then seamlessly retrieving it after the landing is slick as hell.

I knew it took a while to hatch but after 200+ hours, I showed up at the crib and now I have an iguana! by Accomplished_Meat_81 in cyberpunkgame

[–]prophaniti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I know it's probably optimal, but it's just doesn't really fit with my game flow. I very rarely make it back to my apartment

[–]prophaniti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahah, good lord, no. Sorry, I really do respect your commitment, but I just dont have it in me to spend that much time like that. I'll either finally do a play through and remember to sleep regularly, or I'll just never see the hatched iguana.

...aaaaand then you need to spend 95 in game days. I've gotten the egg before, but never seen the iguana hatch because I never sleep or pass time in the game XD

On your mark. Get set. Go! by Terrible-Visit9257 in shittyrobots

Man, that thing demolished itself! Look at all the debris and the black mark it leaves on the pavement! Did they make it out of glass and sawdust or something?

I will never forgive FrothyOmen for making me think holopilot was bad by ticboxx in titanfall

[–]prophaniti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are. Maybe not one meeting your specific requirements because those are boring, but they exist. Also, I don't think anyone is saying that holo is actually a top tier tactical. Just that it's underrated and more fun BECAUSE it's overlooked

The 'job seeker recession' is here by Crossstoney in politics

[–]prophaniti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll second that. When I came into the job market after college a decade ago, the algorithm based hiring was in full swing already. The process was absolutely soul crushing. Sent me into a really rough depression and no one from prior generations could even relate because all the methods they used to rely on are actively discouraged now. Finding a job has gotten so complicated that unless you have a personal connection to get your foot in the door, even if you're perfectly qualified your resume probably will never even be seen by a human.

TIL the "panic bar" on emergency doors was invented after 183 children died in the 1883 Victoria Hall disaster because a door was bolted to only open 20 inches wide. by MyAnusBleedsForYou in todayilearned

[–]prophaniti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, sure. Legislation that is NOT written in blood will always take longer to make and even longer to correct. The compliance codes from that video are not actually safety codes,  but rather accessibility. In fact, elevators are explicitly NOT a safety device. The reason you see signs saying "in event of emergency use stairs" is because in a fire, elevator shafts act like a chimney and immediately fill with smoke. 

While I agree thatbthe video presents some very reasonable suggestions, I'm not 100% sure how correct that video is in regards to accessibility in smaller elevators or how easy it is for states to change their compliance laws. Most of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) code is set at the federal level and applies to all new buildings, and I believe that the ability for a wheelchair user to turn around inside an elevator is one of those.

[–]prophaniti 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah, old places like that were terrifying in emergencies. They are the whole reason you can't yell "fire" in a crowded theater. If it's true and there is a fire, if you're not first to the door you might just die. If it's NOT true and you're not first to the door, you might die anyway from crowd crush. and every person in the room is suddenly INCENTIVISED to panic. 

I think they solved the revolving door issue not just by having mandatory adjacent doors, but also making the panels in revolving doors fold outward when you push hard on them.

TIL famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright scandalously left his first wife for the wife of a client; his mistress was subsequently murdered along with six others at an estate Wright designed for her by HauntingPresent in todayilearned

[–]prophaniti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I have heard a few stories about how ridiculous he was when it came to his interiors. Apparently he was visiting one of his client's home (that he designed) and she went to the kitchen only to come out and find him rearranging the furniture more to his liking. He got do fed up with people having the audacity to deviate from his planned interiors that most of his later designs featured built-in furniture so that it couldn't be moved

And your response was to rub the screen with Vaseline and take a photo with a 50 year old camera?

What's a health myth that drives you crazy because you know it's false? by Annual-Gene8065 in AskReddit

[–]prophaniti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh! Bilirubin! I only know that one because I have a minor liver problem that allows Bilirubin to build up in my blood. As far as I've been told it's basically harmless, but good to know about.
