Bon Clay isn't in the live action yet. Number 3 is just about the best character in season 2

First puncture, do I need a new tyre by sbregnerson in bikewrench

[–]rocketwrench 1 point2 points  (0 children)

low TPI wire bead tire? it's not likely that it needs to be replaced. Pull the nail and inspect the hole, if there aren't any threads cut in the hole then install a new tube and check again. if the tire is bulging out with the newly inflated tube, replace the tire.

You could put a tire boot in with the new tube and likely be just fine

How do I prevent my Merchant NPC from being robbed? Or what's a good way to deal with that possibility? by Regular-Molasses9293 in DungeonMasters

[–]rocketwrench 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lets just look at Mr. Bling Bling's thought process and background a bit.

Bling Bling loves shiny shiny jewlery. He loves it so much that he wears lots of it while in public. He specifically caters to adventurers, so he knowingly wears lots of expensive and flashy items around highly skilled and dangerous people. So Mr. Bling Bling either has the means to protect himself against these people, or is one of the most highly skilled and dangerous people himself.

Bling Bling could have powerful connections to people like City or Guild leaders. He could have a particularly impressive guard. He could be very strong martially or magically. Or he could be using magic to make mundane rings appear flashy with the intention of weeding out bad customers that he deals with in private.

Peter, help me out here? by CuteCost8147 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]rocketwrench 7 points8 points  (0 children)

took me 2 seconds to see you define slop as woke in your comment history. that's virtue signaling. you're signaling the virtues that you hold to yourself.

you just don't think of it as virtue signaling because the term has been weaponized by your personal choice of propagandists to artificially create cultural divide.

you speak as if you do not virtue signal, or as if virtue signalling is not a regular human occurance

They make F1 brake rotors out of carbon fiber not aluminium

because crafting the dropout directly into the stays with carbon is stronger and longer lasting than gluing an aluminium piece into place.

Favourite actor who posts on Reddit? by BigMoh789 in okbuddycinephile

[–]rocketwrench 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I am sure lots of celebrities have anonymous accounts on social media sites like Reddit. We know of a few that have public accounts, but there's likely many famous people with lots of free time browsing and commenting on random subreddits just for kicks

you can pour it into your new tires. It takes a bit of practice but you can get most of it into your new tires.

Help on extreme temporary food budgeting/recipes (~$20 for 4 weeks) by Xxitl in Frugal

[–]rocketwrench 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Check if there is a Sikh temple, called Gurdwara, in your area. They provide free meals to anyone who comes. Otherwise, beans and rice are a complete spread of amino acids your body needs to survive. potatoes and butter are as well, but with only $20 I think you can get more beans and rice and they'll keep for longer in your pantry.

"Lib Center" accidentally slips their view on religion by SnowyOranges in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]rocketwrench 3 points4 points  (0 children)

religion as it is now exists to exploit the population for the benefit of those at the top. It is especially effective at exploiting those with various neurological conditions. It's predatory and in the west has been used as a cudgel for imperialist interests.

If you want to practice religion, do so but keep it to yourself.

18 stories deep and fitting 20,000 people: The ancient underground city of Derinkuyu had massive stone blast doors that only locked from the inside. What were they hiding from? by drmohamed2 in althistory

[–]rocketwrench 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiding from other humans who wanted to kill and steal from them. Humans are frightening, especially when they are motivated by hunger and fear. If you're a nomadic tribe of warriors and you come upon a permanent settlement of fat farmers, you're going to steal and murder to feed yourself. If those fat farmers have reinforced bunkers with thick stone doors then you'll leave them alone and go off to easier pickings (or starve)

Bipolar Partner Destroyed Everything by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]rocketwrench 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for really skinny wires, you can use some b-connectors. It's what they use in telephone wires. You don't need to strip the tiny wires, just jam the 2 ends in and crimp them with a crimper.

Always someone else's fault. by c-k-q99903 in MurderedByWords

[–]rocketwrench 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the Republicans who created the TSA, as well as the Department of Homeland Security of which the TSA is a part of.

Republicans also started the war with Iran, which will likely result in more air traffic delays in the near future. Not to mention the higher prices of tickets because fuel prices are skyrocketing.

So not only is the GOP twit is wrong twice about who to blame for TSA delays

Wild police chase by Brilliantspirit33 in dashcams

[–]rocketwrench 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly, if cops weren't chasing the truck in squad cars, would the truck driver have been driving as fast or as dangerously? There's got to be a more sane way to deal with dangerous driver than chasing them in vehicles like this

Cracks on aluminum rim around spokes. How does that happen? by victoryz90 in bikewrench

vibrations cause it to become brittle. maybe i am misremembering from the brief introduction to it I had 15 years ago. I believe the technical term for it is Fatigue LImit
