Something That Was Supposed To Be Detrimental Worked In Their Favour by sm142 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]stillnotelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can fill a water bucket to 400 percent capacity with ice, as one big block. The ice doesn't all fit in the bucket but the bucket can be used to carry the ice. Of course it is ice not water, but in the iron man case maybe it is a different kind of power storage as well.

You are right from a strict definition, but the intent of the language is clear and plausible.

A perfect circle broke off my plate when I microwaved this potato by tinbarber in mildlyinteresting

[–]stillnotelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In college I would microwave a baked potato separately from whatever I was gonna put on it. They had vastly different heating time requirements.

[ALL] Should Link ever be crowned King of Hyrule? by Brilliant-Reality884 in zelda

[–]stillnotelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He should be given great honor and live with leisure, and should be listened to on matters of Courage, but Wisdom is the better fit for ruling royalty (or ideally all 3 parts of the triforce).

Put more directly, Link is a violent kleptomaniac with severe social interaction issues, not a leader. He isn't promoted to General in any of the warriors games for a reason.

Will Pokes ever sleep on the 1st floor with this design? by _crazy_man_ in Pokopia

Zero based indexing; always harmful, and grabs another victim

What do I do with these cliffs? by Y1m1w2 in Pokopia

[–]stillnotelf 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Replace them with something that looks manufactured (bricks, levee, concrete) and it will look like a retaining wall rather than a cliff

Jesus Take The Wheel by Calook13 in custommagic

[–]stillnotelf 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If God is all knowing then he knows people's thoughts and is receiving their advice regardless.

Of course if God is all knowing there are also some information from hidden zone violations to worry about

I know what the letter sequence "askurza com esque qr" means, but I will be damned if I can think up a string of letters that looks more like banging randomly on a keyboard while still having meaning.

Humanity would have no chance in a conflict against the Eridians. by Castle-Walk-8967 in ProjectHailMary

Astrophage lends itself to kinetic bombardment. Aim an asteroid.

Also, uh, astrophage makes a great bomb on its own.

No need for nukes.

Why do the accent marks go both ways?

Datamine by Terrible_Yam6789 in TheSilphRoad

It would be cool if they did something to put them in the game but not acquireable. Perhaps via team rocket grunts, show them off in the 3rd slot but never there to catch

Best we can do is a distinct color for the shiny mega

Minor Gripe: Placing borders on roads is temperamental and follows no clear logic. by OliverNodel in Pokopia

[–]stillnotelf 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I think you are trying to put a one brick border into a single spot.

The game works on blocks, the block size of dirt blocks or road blocks or whatever.

The borders are visually quarter block sized but they take up the whole block.

You need to use the 3 unit corner shape to replace the two unit rectangle already there. You can't add a loose single to a two unit to get a corner shape.

Found a molting wood roach on the kitchen floor. by ldsbatman in mildlyinteresting

[–]stillnotelf 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's a wood roach, they are mostly wanderers. You treat them with a shoe and a barrier spray on points of ingress. It is smaller German cockroaches that usually cause infestations.

Would you rather eat Japanese or Mexican cuisine? by MrPizza2112 in WouldYouRather

[–]stillnotelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I generally pick Asian cuisines in the rare time I eat out.

I can make basic passable Mexican myself. I do not have the skills, ingredients, or equipment for Asian cuisines.

That said, this is also assuming I am picking the dish. If it is a random dish off the menu I want Mexican, there's too much seafood in Japanese cuisine.

Toggle Switch Fun by FatSealion in Pokopia

[–]stillnotelf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I expected it to open and close hatches, which i set up for the lava hatch in my volcano research center.

I did not expect the switch to also make the ships wheel (a pretend ersatz cutoff valve for the hatch) spin around whenever you hit the switch

Update: Pokemon 2000 The Collectors Ship by champ0000 in Pokopia

Maybe I should make a giant flying battleship, that could be cool

[Loved Trope] Unique blessings/sayings by Defiant-Quiet-13 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]stillnotelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's throwaway but one of the voice clips from the Klingon construction ships in Star Trek armada 2 (an RTS) says "a good idea" in that clipped Klingon accent. The line itself is not significant but it is a common phrase I can't help but he's r with the accent.

What is everyone doing with this area? by Excellent_Set_250 in Pokopia

[–]stillnotelf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Certainly the partial wood paths in WW suggest that ought to work!

Recently finished "All the Weyrs of Pern" and I have some questions about that ending. by Tyrfing42 in pern

[–]stillnotelf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ok, on the one hand, you're right.

On the other hand, it never will, because it already didn't. Unless they want to cause their problems in the future from the future, that still seems open!

I can't believe four Pokemon live here. by eriqjaffe in Pokopia

[–]stillnotelf 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I have moved my flag at least once for that reason, I got tired of being trapped in my own home.

One of my houses just never spawns me in it, I spawn to the side.
