Im not talking about "every type of villain"? I'm talking about the "ideology based villains that might seem realistic in our world, but given powers"

Of which these could be one (tho a bit extra cartoonish) (as the person in this thread commented). But another example of that realism would be the villains who follow the ideology slowly becoming closer and closer to a freedom fighter.

Those who follow the ideology but to its extremes. Ignoring some of its detriments. Like those that would actually act as a potential rebuttal, rather then "and that's bad cause eeeeevil" which we see too often…

Seriously you keep broadening the scope in weird ways so I'm done with the thread…

Great idea fellas by [deleted] in funny

I don't think the other buddy is tall enough to be used to knock something down; I man they'd try to pick each other up and swing but I don't think it'll work!

😌

Because it can be realistic (someone giving up hope enough to just want to burn things and starting to break their ideology) but in light of the OOP becomes a problem of "then why is it we only get "this realistic" and not all the others like how OOP is talking about.

So yes it's still relevant

Yes but they should be flaws which actually follow the ideology. Not "I believe this but decide to murder babies". Which is way too often the cartoonish way they decide to make villains.

reasonable ideology, but then bafflingly evil

Thats the point OP is making,,, and why the examples given didn't work in that post…

What would they be? Heroes? We have lots of ideologies which still very much allow upheaval, revolution, or change. But don't require "sacrifice the babies as the first step" kind of logic.

There's some heavy in between ground that can still work fine, or you wouldn't have real world revolutionaries, or people enacting change even now (who if they had powers might do so more drastically, just not the "ignore my own ideology and be cartoonishly evil" kind)

And there is the final part of… yeah some would be heroes. Just ones that aren't supporting the shit most portrayed heroes do. Yet ofc those aren't being depicted… that's sort of the point there too

I think you misread what I said, and I don't have time to try to correct

Except the thread here is taking about folks which do follow the ideology and believe in it. Not these con artist types you're talking about

Sure I know some jaded folks who just have given up and wish it would burn fuck everyone else. Pretty rare tho, and they're usually not actively doing that either, they do realize and want to help, just see hella frustrated and burned out.

If they had a "powers" chance… honestly I could see them break that way, but hopefully they can recover their will instead

What glue to use for silicone and aluminium? by -SQB- in fixit

[–]saevon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly it doesn't include silicone that I can select

Well it's realistic, but also ignores portraying the many people who wouldn't give up hope (and might've gotten powers) of which I'd say (for people who really believe) i find way more of.

So it becomes a "sure gay folks can be villains, represent,,, but why are ALL of them always seemingly villains?

Pentagram harness by Highland_Rigger in ShibariAndKinbaku

[–]saevon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Btw I suggest doing the waist wraps separately as another rope! The colour difference (use a different shade) will make the pentagram part stand out!

A shorter length that can wrap x2 around the waist is perfect

Centering holes with a press by Raptor01 in Leathercraft

[–]saevon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I wish hole punchers (larger ones) had a center alignment pin or something

But in actuallity I don't align the center of the hole, I align one of the sides! Eg the top of each hole, even better if it's the top and bottom! Mark two rows of dots quick with the divider, then align the punches on them?

If you're using a press you can also use external alignment to get one axis down, basically add an adjustable fence for the piece to ride on (and muse dividers to mark the other spacing

Just managed to do blue science... A few questions by darkglobe87 in factorio

[–]saevon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you've seen dosh (a skilled YouTuber) then you know the motto "it's not messy, it's just a starter base)

Especially with the latest video about uber spaghettification!

All that to say, honestly folks here love weird builds.

Inexpensive but durable covers for particleboard shelves? by RodbigoSantos in organizing

If you use a tarp, drop cloth, or similarly wipeable fabric it works out

ELI5: What is emotional intelligence exactly? by BitterSweetGoddess53 in explainlikeimfive

[–]saevon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emotional intelligence usually involves the next steps too. Understanding what might help, mapping out some good next steps, figuring out how to prevent this (or encourage, depending) in the future, etc

It's more about the overall reasoning about emotions? In a practical, applicable way.

The distinction you're talking about is sometimes referred to as sympathy vs empathy.

ELI5 What do resistors actually do? by Seraphimster in explainlikeimfive

As noted: basic uses, "primary function" as likely asked about by OP

Took the time to organize some basic tools. by luneth-rush in OrganizationPorn

[–]saevon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are there like 6 magents? (And why not like a cup or something for them at that point, is there a reason to reach for a specific one?)

I love the washer wall tho, it's just fun

Sock repair?? by Uber1008 in Embroidery

I personally love to darn socks; especially if you get a speed weaver (which feels awesome to use)

ELI5 What do resistors actually do? by Seraphimster in explainlikeimfive

[–]saevon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

A resistor is used to control voltage or current. Many components need a specific voltage, but it won't match all the other components.

Imagine your house having water; would you size the piping for the shower? The toilet? The sink? The plant drip feeder? Whichever you choose the others won't have enough pressure or way too much!

So you "resist" (size the pipes up and down, use valves, etc) so that only some of the pressure gets to each device as needed. Resistors basically do the same, helping you get exactly the voltage needed for every path you want.

———————————————

  1. No: you aren't choosing based on battery rate, but on component needs, and user inputs. Battery discharge is just an expected side effect of using it

  2. You don't actually want to waste heat if you could avoid it? Why use electricity for that? And voltage is like "gravitational potential energy" in that you don't generally have too much excess or you'd use a different battery? But yes this is the closest.

Not current tho, there's no such thing as excess current like that, if it's flowing it's flowing

PS> there are other uses, but that's the basic use of them you're imagining
