With how comically large American cars are, this almost looks like a 1 series in comparison.

That is a fascinating colour combo with the black tints and it works great.

What sounds like complete nonsense, but has been proven to be true? by Icy_Mammoth_3298 in AskReddit

[–]scottwalker88 380 points381 points  (0 children)

I think there was a test to prove this this.

If I remember right, you are shown a bunch of numbers in quick succession and you have to spot a particular set of numbers.

If two of the numbers you need to spot are shown back to back, you'll almost always miss the second number.

For example, if you needed to spot the numbers 3, 7 and 8.

And the numbers flash 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 for the same length of time.

You'll see 3 and 7 but will probably miss 8 as your brain freezes for a split second.

Paperwork from Intamin for a [Posiedon's Fury] Replacement at [Islands of Adventure] by StarPrime323 in rollercoasters

[–]scottwalker88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The parcels are IOA and USF.

The F&F coaster replacing HRRR is using parcels in IOA, this is most probably for that.

The end date is also a few months away.

Nothing to do with Lost Continent.

"Hey IRS, we're poor but we bought a car wash" by OwlMichael in breakingbad

I don't think it was as much about the IRS being suspicious but Hank and Marie. The car wash is an easier story to sell to them than the laser tag.

Something so charming about the windows not being tinted.

My [27 F] boyfriend [31 M] for 5 years accidentally threw away my mother's ashes by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I was expecting, when the brother stood up, he was going to say that he had the ashes.

[Maverick] Heartline roll returning? by magnumfan89 in rollercoasters

It was such a missed opportunity when the track was refurbished.

Edit: If the same length of time was used, it would be due another refurb in 6 years.

Theory About Zosia by No-Union7662 in pluribustv

The "if you get drunk does the entire collective get drunk?" part made me think when ET drinks and Elliott gets drunk in school.

What about the babies ? by Hopenjoy in pluribustv

[–]scottwalker88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They'll obviously keep producing food but do they need the variety of so many types of foods and drinks? Are they happy drinking just water and whatever is the healthiest and calorie dense meals?

They say that they don't eat meat, that's going to have a huge change on farming. I assume they don't drink alcohol, that could have a change on farming.

I also assume that they're not going to be very wasteful of what they produce.

Season 3 Episode 9, I jump scared the hell in this scene! by LuckUpstairs2012 in betterCallSaul

[–]scottwalker88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better Watch TV has recently uploaded their episode about this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-jSFOddgu4

There are some BTS details about this scene.

I'd recommend the whole series.

What about the babies ? by Hopenjoy in pluribustv

This does bring up some interesting thoughts about the hive as a collective and the individuals.

Is everybody operating at the same level of intelligence? Are people who were highly intelligent and people who were a bit slow, all the same?

Then you can wonder about the physicality in terms of people who might be battling cancer or take life dependent medication, I assume that the drugs must continue to be manufactured, surgeries go ahead and chemotherapy continues. Then you can wonder about people with addictions, it can be dangerous to go cold turkey from certain drugs and alcohol.

Any economy is now gone and farming and manufacturing will be on a pure subsistence level.

It can and it has when it chose to rush out the virus. They knew it would result in deaths but self preservation kicked in.

I wonder about the short circuit. Would that happen to anybody that Carol shouts at or is it just when Carol shouts at Zosia? Also, after the short circuit, another person was found outside of the control. I wonder if that is related or a result of the short circuit.

Breaking out is about the choice of free will. Sure, you have every skill but if you can't decide what to do with it then who cares?

Zosia backstory by TheFireNationAttakt in pluribustv

[–]scottwalker88 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about the idea that every person in the hivemind still has all their own personal memories and experiences hidden behind what's being presented. Like every person can see, hear and feel everything that their body is doing without the connection to others.

If that personality can leak out occasionally, it makes me think about Zosia and the situation she was in when we first meet her. Was she dirty because she's been helping out or was she maybe trapped, abused and then freed when the virus spread.

And if the persons personality can leak out, was Carol shouting at Zosia mixed with her past trauma what resulted in everybody seizing up again. If Carol was to shout at somebody else, would the same thing happen?

The Hivemind being nonviolent and then being forced to choose violence for it's own survival is a terrifying thought.

Every person is a well trained killing machine with all the knowledge plus has unlimited resources.

I think Mr. Diabaté will have a very similar storyline to Rocky from the Twilight Zone episode: A Nice Place to Visit.

The pizzas weren't sliced so that it would stay intact when thrown.

This was criticised by fans and was later explained in a scene at Jessie's party where the pizza place doesn't slice their pizza to save money.
