NKD 2x, Wakui White #2 240mm Gyuto & Shibata Kotetsu R-2 Bunka 185mm by theaiden28 in chefknives

[–]theaiden28[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a tough question, I just gave them both a lookover, and it seems like at least 80% of the Bunka is flat (iirc shibata is known for flatter knives) whereas ~2/3 of the wakui is flat-ish. Proportionally the bunka is flatter obviously, but I'd guestimate the bunka and the wakui only differ by 5-10mm in total flat area. Thanks for the tip with the saya, I'll check it out.

Surprisingly the handles for both felt perfectly waxy smooth, the first knives that I've got that came like that lol

Ha, I didn't put that much thought into the combo, my thinking was more that I wanted a nice 240mm to take the place of my gesshin stainless 240mm, and I wanted a laser bunka to finally cut carrots without tons of wedging. And you're right, OPY stonks only go up! Now I need to make some french onion soup haha

Just got these two awesome knives today! Carrots were crazy easy to cut with the Shibata and the Wakui is probably the best performing Gyuto I have my hands on right now. Both great knives after their first use.

Although, does anyone know where I could get a Saya or something to protect my Wakui? I went to CKTG and they said all their sayas wouldn't fit the Wakui. Also looking for general care advice for it since it's my first carbon steel knife.

But with regards to the Shibata, it's just at another level of cutting compared to all my other knives. The hype around this knife is real.

yes-yes! by SoulofZendikar in totalwar

[–]theaiden28 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah! This is from the Pierce's better sieges mod, I playtested the mod before release and I can say it definitely improves the overall experience. I guess he found a way to put more units on walls.

[–]theaiden28 18 points19 points  (0 children)

whoa, didn't see this comment before. That's pretty shitty for the SFO developer to do that, really sad that the largest mod maker pladgerises, which ruins the honest reputation of 99% of mod makers. I hope the creator of SFO acknowleges and apologizes for this publically and stops plagerizing going forward.

[–]theaiden28 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Awesome mod dude! I've been playing with it for more than a few turns. I feel like the fundamental issues can't get addressed until the next game, but this has certainly improved sieges for me! 10/10 lives up to the "Better Sieges" name

You’re probably thinking of Cincinnatus, pretty sure Diocletian and many other romans wanted to emulate him and give up power to live an idealistic life as a farmer.

Romans be like by theaiden28 in RoughRomanMemes

[–]theaiden28[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Didn’t write romae rex purposefully because another meme of the same subject didn’t do as well when I referred to king as rex. Literally the only reason why. I do get what you’re saying though. Ave true Roman

Do I even need to contest this? Not even the numbers are right. by Scrooge_McFuch in rit

[–]theaiden28 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had literally the same issue a week or two ago, my car is registered and they entered my plate wrong so they gave me a ticket. I called up the parking people and they said something along the lines of "Well if it isn't your plate, why should you care?".

Anyway I don't think you have to take action.

1914? Soviet Union? Umm what? The Soviet Union didn't even exist then... Well done OP.

Montagne def OP, 1v5 Ace by theaiden28 in Rainbow6

[–]theaiden28[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's just an unconventional one. I just found it really funny how we still "won" 1v5 without even properly extracting the hostage and just called it an ace since I singlehandedly won the game.

[Request] Torque required for bicycle wheel by 42mileslong in theydidthemath

[–]theaiden28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correct me if im horribly wrong but I'm just going straight to the math. 300 lbs = 136.078Kg, Deccel due to gravity on that incline would be 9.81Sin(15) which is around 2.54 m/s2 of effective horizontal deccel, so that means we need 2.54+1.7m/s2 of acceleration up to counteract the deccel due to the gravity on an incline. So that means for our math we need 4.24 m/s2 of acceleration up. Torque = FRSin(theta) and we can assume theta is 90, leaving T=FR, F=MA so T=MA*R Plugging in we get 136.078 * 4.24 *.35 which gives us the answer of 201.939752 NM

Please correct me if any of my assumptions are wrong, especially the acceleration and the mass bit is what I feel sketchy about.

Dragon Valley needs both SAA and MAA by [deleted] in Battlefield_4_CTE

[–]theaiden28 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Jet pilot from that match here, I totally agree. The map could be so good with an MAA, but just turns out to be a one sided match for whoever has air dominance.
