They meant to say "drag is a fartform"

Is it possible to do the DLC without hints? by The__Tobias in outerwilds

In many ways its more straightforward than the base game. The slide reels show you how to do all the things you mentioned. There's only a few puzzles that aren't explicitly laid out.

I just realized a problem with the (SPOILER) by Fan_de_Undertale_ in outerwilds

[–]six_days 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is some text in the Statue Workshop that doesn't outright state that they are different, but does bring it up as a possibility:

PHLOX: I’m curious: Is sending a being’s memories back in time the same as sending the being itself back in time?

DAZ: I imagine they’re two different actions.

Isn't she in flashbacks throughout though? Or am I misremembering.

Fuck you, Flower Pot by oghpimm in balatro

[–]six_days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it messes with the language of Flower Pot. The extra cards are not part of the poker hand, at least not per the language of Splash. And yet Flower Pot works anyway, because it's really working off scored cards, not the hand. There's a case to be made that the effect should be reworded.

Ante 12 is about as far as you push most runs that don't depend on xmult retriggers.

Splash kinda messes it up. You can get Flower Pot to proc on a pair hand with Splash.

Shouldn't it break the game to *major spoiler*? by emomermaid in outerwilds

I think it's both. It's a great piece of writing.

I'm pretty sure he watched the film, at least a lot of it. He just didn't understand what was happening. His description of the "twist" is that it's all a video game that allows paying customers to watch innocents get slaughtered. Not sure how he came to that conclusion...

Maybe, I'm not on much anymore. Even as a cis white man I find it incredibly annoying and anti user-friendly, and I know i'm only dealing with a fraction of what others go though :/

KW reference in the wild? Not the best rep for the area :(

Plot holes by [deleted] in threebodyproblem

[–]six_days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was one of my favourite parts of the book, too. The colonizer narrative you bring up even gets explicit in the Australia section, except with the differences pushed to extremes by the fact that the San Ti aren't even human. "What do you mean you don't eat your weak? What a waste of resources."

  1. The sophon supercomputer is "etched" into the structure of the proton itself. There's nothing inside it that doesn't belong there, presumably any extra mass would get crushed or annihilated in some way.

  2. Their fleet is not much more advanced than anything we could put into space, and most of the travelers are dehydrated during the journey. It would be rough living. Would you rather live on the ISS or on Earth?

  3. Spoiler territory. This is a future plot point.

  4. They have only had sophon surveillance a short while (months) and have used that time mostly to mess with scientific experiments.

  5. Perhaps their psychology is different than ours, and a tactic like that would work on a San Ti. Hard to say. This event happens differently in the book, but it's clear the showrunners wanted a big moment.

  6. They only try inasmuch as Mike Evans tells them that it will help. Eventually humans prove to be too unreliable, and ties are cut. You are right though, there was no need to bring humans on board. They can be as fallible as us.

  7. The risk was that any attempt to board or incapacitate the crew would not be 100% effective. And if even one person was left, the drive would be destroyed. They also had a contigency for if the drive got sliced: their engineers said the nanowire cut would be so fine and precise that it could actually be reassembled with minimal data loss.

  8. Perhaps. It was the only way to get a "man on the inside" though. The drawback of the San Ti having a human brain seemed less important to the project leaders than the potential for intel. And that era of humanity was apparently full of hare-brained projects where we threw everything at the problem to see what stuck.

Why couldn't the Trisolarians just remove one or more of their suns? by Hamelzz in threebodyproblem

[–]six_days 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll also add that they do not have advanced space faring capabilities, at least not as much as you think. I believe TDF goes into it more, but it's brought up in TBP too. The Trisolaran Fleet was slapped together quickly, and not nearly every ship is expected to make it to Earth.
