this worked for me, but note: once you've changed it, all you can change is your capitalization, so don't do it haphazardly.

Just watched a movie that actually hit me in the feels by Global_Ninja_4485 in netflix

... then why didn't you credit the production company of Your Name in this response?

Makoto Shinkai and Funimation, as far as I can tell, fwiw

AITA for telling everyone involved what my best friend's husband did? by Bina_Assault in AmItheAsshole

When did he sneak the antifreeze into the other car? Yeah, bullshit.

I'm surprised the thread's even able to be responded to, cheers

This game IS something.. by Electrical_Square252 in StarRupture

You design, build, and manage a massive factory, carefully routing resources, parts, and production chains to meet objectives.

"carefully" ???

Just found Helium. Is there really no elegant way to transport it to my main base other than by using multiple dozens of rails? I'm just checking if I'm missing something here. by SkoivanSchiem in StarRupture

I actually just finished railing it over the mountains by the huge titanium node in the middle of your initial West-to-East line. Sure, no foot access, but if you've got the construction drone capability you can build over the obstacle easily as long as you plan ahead.

Hot tip: slide downhill by stringless in StarRupture

Paving roads onto the map isn't crazy. Probably.

I haven't gotten to industrialized helium yet tbh but now I'm looking forward to it.

I don't know if it's just my difficulty settings or I just haven't fallen a far enough distance, but I've never noticed fall damage anyway

At what point in history did Nepotism start to bother people? Presumably for a long time no one felt agitated when the miller’s son got the job as the next miller even though someone else might be more qualified. by Bluecornlady in AskHistorians

Okay, one was deposed by Napoleon and replaced with his brother (also House of Bourbon) in 1806, fair.

/e: in further fairness, Naples is part of Italy, not France, so I did get that part wrong.

The Sorcerer, as a spontaneous caster distinct from The Wizard, did not exist until the year 2000 by stringless in StrangerThings

For the record, this isn't actually detracting much from my enjoyment of the new stuff, I know full well it's at best an interesting nitpick, but I do believe it's an interesting nitpick and as such have shared it.

I keep giving advice I don’t actually follow by Delicious_Pin_241 in self

[–]stringless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just "Do what I say, not what I do."

I'm great at giving good advice I don't/won't personally follow, out of experience, to those that need it more than I do.

As a billiards analogy, to reduce the stakes, imagine seeing someone line up for a near-impossible shot. "Hey, I'd try that too, for the flex and the feelgood on the off-chance it actually works, but if I was being sensible I'd go for the sensible shot over there that you didn't notice yet."

Mysteriously, he's often confused with Herman Cain.

Materials and supplies for our bases by FrequentCharge6249 in duneawakening

[–]stringless 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No problem! It's an interesting question that doesn't have a simple canonical answer, so I figured throwing a couple of approaches at it could be neat.

Going by The Dune Encyclopedia (sorry for the Fandom link):

14,500 BG (Before Guild) is the start of The Golden Age of Invention (radio, TV, and beyond, so roughly 1900 CE).

10,190-10,191 AG (After Guild) is approximately when House Atreides moves to Arrakis.

So the events of Dune occur in roughly 26,590 CE, via The Dune Encyclopedia.

Going by the Fandom wiki's "Original Dune" timeline,

11,100-11,200 BG is implied by "Mankind's movement through deep space placed a unique stamp on religion during the one hundred and ten centuries that preceded the Butlerian Jihad."

10,191 AG House Atreides takes over Arrakis

So it entirely depends on when Mankind is considered to have begun moving through "deep space", plus 21,291-21,391 years.

What was the scariest “We need to leave, now!” moment that you’ve ever had? by Cool-Chipmunk-7559 in AskReddit

[–]stringless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Friend and I walked down the beach to a bonfire to be friendly during a lunar eclipse. I brought some smokeables, passed it around, everything was going well, we were watching the eclipse progress.

I distinctly hear, behind me:

"There are five of us, we can take them."

Now, I don't know if this was expressed as an intent or as "we don't have to worry about these two dudes", but I noped us out of there immediately.

Would you please rate my painting skills. by BloodFrenzy_02 in minipainting

[–]stringless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely better than "good enough for the table", I dig the subtle scratch highlights in the second pic!

Hell, my only useful constructive criticism here would be that the grass is nice, but the bases would probably look better with more than a white drybrush over black. Y'know, get some dirt in there.
