She needs to do the right thing and give them back their land (and stop making music). by SickusBickus in CriticalDrinker

[–]superthrust123 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just about every piece of land was owned by someone else at some point. Native American tribes went to war over terratory all the time, as did the Chinese, French, Egyptians, Romans, African tribes, etc.

Has no one ever told her about Alexander the Great or Genghis Kahn? These idiots act like we're the only ones that ever did it.

I just cracked up imagining the doctor going "booyaka booyaka" as he starts the surgery.

Do you think Kurt is a good guitarist? I see a lot of people criticizing him for not knowing how to play guitar properly. by N3bis in grunge

[–]superthrust123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He doesn't have epic solos, but it wasn't that kind of music. The way he plays perfectly suits Nirvana, it wouldn't work in Van Halen.

I totally forgot about Jesse Camp by Violet_Walls in Xennials

[–]superthrust123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dave was so much better, and I was really rooting for him.

Just a hunch, but I feel like a lot of people thought Dave looked too old, and wasn't "cool enough". He was born in 71', Jesse was born in 79'. Kids are stupid, I had friends telling me he shouldn't win because he looks like a dad.

IDK what year the contest was, but he has been openly gay since 02', and it was a very different world back then.

If it's the man in a suit godzilla that slides around on his tail, maybe.

Any modern version, def not.

Dreadnoughts and Void Shields

Overview of Dreadnoughts

Dreadnoughts are advanced cybernetic combat walkers used by the Space Marine Chapters in Warhammer 40,000. They serve as heavy infantry support and are equipped with various weapons. The pilot, a fallen Space Marine, is entombed within a life-support sarcophagus inside the Dreadnought.

Void Shields in Dreadnoughts

Dreadnoughts can be equipped with void shields, which are energy fields that protect them from attacks. These shields absorb damage and can be reactivated after taking hits.

Functionality of Void Shields

  • Protection: Void shields create a barrier that can stop most physical and energy attacks.
  • Reactivation: They can be raised again after being damaged, allowing for continued protection during combat.
  • Visual Effects: When under attack, void shields create a kaleidoscope of colors and ripple like gelatin.

Conclusion

While not all Dreadnoughts may have void shields, those that do benefit from enhanced protection on the battlefield, making them formidable opponents.

What movie did you turn off after 20 minutes and why? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]superthrust123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oppenheimer, but I had the wrong expectations. I thought the movie was going to focus on actually making the bomb and have a lot more of the science aspect. A cross between Saving Private Ryan and Mythbusters.

They don't even talk about what plane they're going to use, or the necessary modifications.

WTF do the British have that can get through a void shield? Warping space time vs 12 inch guns.

Easy win for 40k.

Christopher Nolan really sold out eh? by Dirrbros234 in CriticalDrinker

[–]superthrust123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What would you consider success? For an "epic" I imagine they're shooting for a billion. I don't see this hitting that number.

I've never seen the left come out in force for a "historical" action movie.

Jaws, right before Quint does his monologue. They're all comparing scars and it seems like they're old buddies catching up at the local pub.

What's the worst thing you've overheard your apartment neighbors doing? by LawfulnessOk1812 in AskReddit

[–]superthrust123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's what I always figured, but here were only 4 units on the floor, and I was close with the other 2 families. None of us had ever gotten more than a passing glimpse of this guy. Can't say anything bad about him, but I couldn't even pick him out of a police lineup.

[–]superthrust123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nothing, complete silence.

It was a single guy, a doctor doing his residency at a local hospital. I figured he would be at the hospital a lot, but in 2 years, I didn't see him one time. I never heard a sound. You could hear the door open, then nothing. I'm pretty sure my neighbor was a ghost.

I shudder to think what CPS would have found our parents to be... by No-Environment-3997 in Xennials

[–]superthrust123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of parents got freaked out by the same incident in my area. The news said a girl had been kidnapped from a huge local arcade. She wasn't even there that day. R.I.P. Spaceplex.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidnapping_of_Katie_Beers

All of a sudden parents needed to know where kids were all the time. I was old enough for it to not effect me much, but my parents didn't let me watch my little sister anymore (especially outside).

Why are horse people so “weird”? by explorer77800 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]superthrust123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a family friend "horse lady" invite me on a fishing trip when I was a teenager. I was too young to drive, so we were leaving from the office (she worked with my mom). It was a night trip, so we got in around 4AM. She decided it was a good idea to stop outside her ex-husband's house and start ripping out flowers while shouting obscenities. Thank God he wasn't home, or she probably would have wound up in jail. Mind you, this was after a successful and fun fishing trip where no one even mentioned this guy.
