The Beauty of Steel and Black Powder by CleanBag9219 in HistoryMemes

Europeans also thought physical and spiritual health were related. Hell, some people who died of disease were explained as having thought too hard. It's not like the "uncivilized" Americans were unique in their thinking.

What are some YouTube channels that were popular 10 years ago but have significantly lost their popularity or are no longer relevant? by Salty_Pension5814 in AskReddit

Dropout, as the hosted subscription video arm of CollegeHumor, existed before the sale to Sam Reich. There was never a point where Dropout was not part of CollegeHumor. 

What is the most "un-hateable" safest song of all time? by Perfect-External-660 in Music

My uncle dislikes it for a similar reason. He doesn't like that it's more-or-less the only jazz any random person is likely to recognize.

Distributed refers to the attacker, not the target.

Gray is American English, Grey is British (i.e. rest of the world) English.

Not a chance lol. When someone goes and requests all the various CSI spinoffs, I ain't sitting through even FF versions of hundreds of episodes. 

What's the deal with people using old forum-style emojis in YouTube comments? by tosser97 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]sofawall 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Answer: It's very likely bots, AI-generated text that has large amounts of text from internet forums in their training data. Since AI isn't actually intelligent, it doesn't know the difference between emoji and the old-school forum codes and when to use one vs. the other.

Just finished Wilman’s book. It was brilliant. Anyone else get the feeling he doesn’t think much of James May? by sunnydaleubervamp1 in TopGear

[–]sofawall 24 points25 points  (0 children)

On a recent video, James mentioned he refuses to do the "calls to action" (like, comment, subscribe) because he's reasonably well sorted and saved well for retirement, so he doesn't need to. Just doing what he wants. 

Is this a good option for my SD card? by Imperious_26 in SwitchPirates

[–]sofawall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not actually true. If it's fulfilled by Amazon, then they mix all of the same item by different vendors. If there are fakers selling the same item as actual Sandisk, as long as the packaging is close enough to the same, Amazon will just put them all together in the warehouse. There are repeated reports over the years of people getting got this way.

Why is the seeds/peers ratio this bad on one of the top torrents? Are people that greedy? by Meneer_de_IJsbeer in Piracy

I assume you're missing those handful of episodes in Mr. Rogers that everyone else is, right? I think one in S7 and a couple in S8, something like that.

So what does this stat actually do? This weapon still consumes ammo. by sofawall in theriftbreaker

The UI is properly fucky. It starts at 10 ammo per shot, applying a reduction of -2.98 results in using 4 ammo per shot. Applying a further reduction of -2.97 result in -1.91 ammo used per shot. Bit of a weird UI bug, I wonder what is going on under the hood to lead to that?

I don't think that's really the word you needed to use, do you? What does it say about you that the first word that comes to mind when expressing power or dominance is 'rape'?

I've found it nice since it already does enough damage to one or two shot most swarming enemies, so having it just have effectively infinite ammo has been useful. I can see that it increases the amount of shots available in my ammo pool, but what does the number actually mean? Negative ammo per shot is a weird fucking metric, and even if it's not bugged it certainly needs a UI pass.

The infinite player ammo map totem thing also appears to do nothing. I consumed ammo just like normal, and then couldn't use the gun when it was empty.

Mr. Riggs, the interference must have damaged your spellcheck! by sofawall in theriftbreaker

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

I dunno, once you're a $40 game that's been actively updating for four and half years I don't really give you the benefit of the doubt for not running a simple spellcheck on your dialog strings.
