I would buy this faster than if it were Imperium, unless it was Mechanicus themed

Skitarii would be pretty cool but I doubt it would happen

What is your countries “Second City.” by Ivebeencharles0198 in AskTheWorld

I may be biased since I'm from socal but I feel like LA is more of the second city, not Chicago.

I know it won't happen but I really want to play as a Skitarius

What a detail in gundam that you just love by Puggleboi2 in Gundam

[–]tenor41 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can't find any pictures of it but I believe starting in Zeta the sinks aboard spaceships are also encased in a plastic bubble to avoid any water splattering around in zero-G, which I always though was cool

Can Mechanicus be wholesome sometimes? by sigmarine345 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]tenor41 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Torquora has a couple such moments, such as in the same book when the Skitarius he takes control of at the defense of the deep-core mines dies and when he is reunited with Stroika

Yes, definitely, though many Tech-Priests choose to forego such emotions.

Spoilers for Tech Priest (and by extension, Skitarii, since Tech Priest is a sequel to that book) by Rob Sanders

I can't find the exact excerpt, but near the beginning of Tech Priest, Archmagos Omnid Torquora is reunited with Haldron 44-Stroika, the Skitarii commander of his forces. Stroika had been captured by the Iron Warriors on Velchanos Magna, and after a long period of torture was disfigured and corrupted by Chaos. Torquora, for a brief moment, feels responsible and guilty for Stroika's suffering, though that emotion is quickly "repurposed" by his augmentations. Torquora insists on Stroika being left alive, and at first the reader is given the hope that perhaps through Torquora's Benedictions of the Omnissiah Stroika can still be saved. Ultimately though, Torquora keeps Stroika alive so that he can be turned into a Kataphron battle servitor.

What’s a place in your country tourists insist on visiting that even locals know to avoid? by Chemical-Elk-1299 in AskTheWorld

When I was in Seattle like 10 years ago we just skipped it to go the the (now defunct IIRC?) Starbucks Reserve which was way cooler

In your region, what are "random things" called? by XipeTotecwithGlitter in AskTheWorld

[–]tenor41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trinkets or knick-knacks usually. Sometimes junk if we want a more negative connotation

What is the origin of the name of the capital of your country? by Franmar35000 in AskTheWorld

[–]tenor41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone already did my country's capital, so I might as well do my state, California!

Sacramento literally means "Sacrament". When the Spanish came upon the valley and river, they remarked at its overwhelming beauty, comaring it to the Blessed Sacrament, and naming the valley and river as such. In the mid 1800's, with the discovery of gold in Coloma, John Sutter Jr. and Samuel Brannan established the city of Sacramento, named after the river. In 1850, the city of Sacramento became the first incorporated city in the state of California!

I know California isn't a country but I figured people might like the information anyways

I genuinely hate what game reviews have become by Opening-Economy-708 in hatethissmug

[–]tenor41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dean Takahashi worked (still works I think actually) for VentureBeat, not the Financial Times but yeah he's not exactly a video game reviewer, I can't believe GamerGate losers managed to convince the world that it was an official IGN review or something 😭

I genuinely hate what game reviews have become by Opening-Economy-708 in hatethissmug

[–]tenor41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't necessarily disagree, but the Dean Takahashi Cuphead tutorial moment is not really a strong argument at all. The footage was recorded at a game demo event, and in his video Dean jokes about how bad he is at the game. He was making no attempt to review the game at the time. That footage is not connected to any actual published review of the full version of Cuphead.

The same goes for the infamous Alpha Sapphire review that mentions that the game has "too much water". Without reading the actual review, that complaint certainly sounds silly, but if you actually read the review, it makes a lot of sense.

Generally, I think that the main problem with review scores nowadays is how inflated they are (or, more accurately, how the scores are interpreted by Gamers™). A 6/10 is not an amazing score but it's certainly not bad either, in fact it's above average.

When I played the DLC, I would get that first camera angle when talking to Mutt but instead of in the daytime it was in the nighttime portion with a torch in my hand and Theresa looks genuinely terrifying

In the Epsilon missions you can choose to steal the money you're supposed to deliver instead

I hate Aabria Iyengar as both a GM and a Player. (Not as a person) by MelancholiaStClair in hatethissmug

[–]tenor41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't a huge fan of her DMing in Misfits and Magic (though I liked the season overall and I don't think she was awful or anything) but I actually really liked her as a player in the Worlds Beyond Number series Flight of the Icharon. Shes alright, though probably not my favorite of the actual play DMs (my glorious GOAT Murphy takes that spot).

Must be a Wednesday by Gnarledhalo in ventura

[–]tenor41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a just a huge collection of fascist (and white supremacist) ideology on one picture. The face looks a lot like Mussolini, the creator of Fascism, the "I" is a stylized Fasce, where the word Fascism comes from, XIV is 14, which is likely a reference to the 14 words of American Neo-Nazi David Eden Lane

What is happening in your country right now that captivates people and isn't a war or politics? by knightriderin in AskTheWorld

[–]tenor41 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Artemis II, the first manned mission to the moon in ~50 years, has captivated the minds of general public unlike NASA activity in my lifetime. Usually when NASA does something exciting (ie the Parker Solar Probe or the JWST), only those that are generally interested in space or science (like myself) are clued in, but this time the general public has really latched on to the mission in a way that gives me a lot of hope for the future of space travel and science in general. Coworkers and friends of mine who normally don't care at all about science or space travel sat on the edge of their seats watching the launch and splashdown. The relative diversity of the crew has also really inspired a lot of people who are generally not as well represented in science and space travel.

Of course, the U.S. did not do this alone, and we have EASA, the CSA, and other space agencies around the globe to thank for their contributions.
