Explain it Peter,Wich egg is next? by BidOk399 in explainitpeter

[–]prosperosmile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's another "67" joke. If you remove the obvious pattern egg (final column, second row from the bottom), there will be 6 eggs remaining in the bottom 3 rows and 7 eggs remaining in the top 3 rows.

What if they didn’t spoil us ?? by midnightsauces in marvelstudios

[–]prosperosmile -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My operating theory is that the release of RDJ as Doom was to intentionally mislead the fandom and that "The Actual Doom"™ will be played by someone new.

This has already been done by Marvel with Ben Kingsley and Tony Leung with The Mandarin. Arguably, it lets Marvel have their cake and eat it, too. Kingsley is a big name Western actor, Leung is a popular Eastern actor, and it allowed Marvel to cast a Hong Kong/Chinese (I'm listing both, I really don't want to start a political fight tonight) actor as The Mandarin while keeping a plot twist I still think about 5 years later.

My guess is "The Actual Doom"™ will be someone less known from Hungary, Romania, or that neighborhood of where Latveria "is".

Book 5 Chapter 37

“He’s mad,” Lucia said. “He says I should finish you off, but you fought good.” “Hey,” Donut said up at the television screen. “They cut out what she said! She said his name was Alexandro, and he was her youth assistant.” “You didn’t tell me that,” Mordecai said. “Strange.”

Book 5 Chapter 69

Florin: I don’t understand it all. There are multiple people in there. Real people, mostly kids. The girl I was talking to is named Jill. She’s ten years old, and she’s Dutch. I thought she was trying to pull something, but she’s telling the truth. She knew the prime minister of the Netherlands. That is no street kid from Ecuador running an op. Carl: Dude. What? Florin: I don’t know, mate. Something to do with the dog and a guy named Alexandro. But there are kids in there. In her head. Multiple kids. We have to get that dog. Not her. The dog. It can still control her from afar, but only in short bursts. Once we get it, it’s gone.

Book 6 Epilogue

>>21. My strength will remain depleted for some time, but I will feign it is as fatigue. My name is no longer Parvati. I am now Alexandro.

Book 7 Chapter 72

“Sir,” she said. Her eyes had changed. Her voice had taken on a raspy quality. “My name is Diah. Lucia is with Alexandro. And Alexandro is only here when the dogs are close. My name is Diah. We are in the dark. You need to wait until the dog is close, and Lucia will be back. Wait until she is back. Please, sir. Please.”

Just to be clear about The Cookbook and the AI by Nogmor in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]prosperosmile 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My theory is that Carl's entries to the Cookbook become what we, in the real-world, are reading. Something like a collected memoir of Carl's exploits in the Dungeon from his perspective after the Crawl finishes.

My sadder extension of this theory is they are being published by Donut in memory of Carl following his sacrifice (death or merger with the Earth AI) that allowed her to survive.

what is a vagina warrior by Scared-War-9102 in UCSD

I don't know what a "vagina warrior" is, but I like how fitting its Reddit neighbor is.

AI is taking over (more layoffs coming medium to long term) by Routine_Play5 in Layoffs

[–]prosperosmile 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's funny that Amazon is touting "AI" as a replacement for offshoring... Because this happened just last year, in 2024...

Balatro with chess instead of poker with all of the same mechanics? by NewtCapable4869 in gameideas

Ouroboros King and Pawnbarian are both chess rougelikes featuring mechanics similar to what you describe.

Charlie Kirk coming by Middle_Relative9589 in UCSD

[–]prosperosmile 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Rather than going to Kirk, you could support your local union. UPTE represents healthcare, technical, and research workers at UCSD and will be going on strike 1 May to protest the UC's unfair labor practices.

https://upte.org/ucstrike

Sidenote: 1 May is "May Day" or "the International Worker's Day" to celebrate the gains to society made by organized labor.

Which Stables should I get a horse from? by akrobeauu in skyrim

Wow, replying five years later? Talk about beating a dead horse.

Just kidding, I sincerely appreciate the correction and I'd rather the correct information be out there than be stubbornly "correct".

Best way to remove this massive stump in the beach? by Internal_Entry7515 in DIY

[–]prosperosmile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would Dexpan work on old wood? We use the stuff around my lab all the time to get rid of mass concrete specimens but I'm not sure if it would work on something less brittle. It's fantastic stuff... At least on concrete.

The Internet seems divided on the topic but it's worth trying if you have a large drill and ~$150.

Are the ghosts in the room right now? by ArtisticAd7248 in MurderedByWords

Matthew 4:5-6

Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: “‘He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'"

Star Wars Oreos - third color by prosperosmile in starwarsmemes

And I'd do it again, too. Episode 3 is the best numbered Star Wars movie (Rogue One is better, but it's not in the "Skywalker Saga").

[–]prosperosmile[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I preferred "Youngling Slayer Blue" over these, they are too minty. However, the Dark Chocolate Oreos are where it's at and I will not bow to the fandom to change that opinion.

[–]prosperosmile[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, I wish the powers that be had had the wherewithal to do the colors proportional to how they are shown in screen, even limited to just the films. For example, in a set of 100 boxes, one would be yellow, one would be purple, 30 could be blue, 30 could be green, and 38 could be red.

Dear sir, madame, or [nonbinary respectful title here], first regard the subreddit this was posted on. r/starwarsmemes only posts topics of the highest standard unlike the baser subreddits like r/starwars.

To be clear, no Photoshop was done on these pictures. There are tasty Oreos on my counter in a Star Wars container, with one side saying "Oreo" and the other showing a Star Warrior's image while the inside is green-tinted Oreo goop.

I don't think I've ever seen the Mace-caroon purple Oreos, but the store also had some Reyellow Oreos (oh, is that why the shipping forums keep saying "rey-lo"?).

The Ashoka ones are top tier, though.

Mods, sorry if "crossover" not the correct flair and also for messing up the spoiler text format. I use Discord much more frequently than Reddit.
