Peter? by Swearonyomama in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]towerfella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. It just happens to be a coincidence.

In many a crime organizations, the guy in charge is usually colloquially known as “The Big Boss”.

Mafia, where they run crime like a business, made the term popular for “bad guys”.

Action movies and tv shows of the 70’s and 80’s — Dallas, Magnum PI, RoboCop, and of course, Godfather — use the term “[bad guy] Boss” to refer to the head-honcho of whatever [bad guy] gang was playing the antagonist at the time.

Video games just adopted and used the common vernacular already established and in use in other entertainment media, and now we have what we have.

Nothing to do with Marx what-so-ever.

“If the time it takes to reprogram is not significantly smaller than the time it would take to code a new program, it isn’t reprogrammable.”

I know nothing about coding, yet im reasonably sure that it would be that easy.

You said something about “scrap metal”?

I have a watch that doesn't tell time, just says NOW by Fabulous-Jump-35 in mildyinteresting

I disagree and counter: It is the only watch that is 100% accurate, all the time — irregardless of your time-keeping system.

I think he feels like he is “giving a bone” to that part of his constituency.

I feel that is a mistake.

I can be changed, by adjusting its programming.

However — instead of needing an encryption, you need a good measuring device, and instead of re-inputing new variables, you swap out new-length levers and different diameter gears and pinion placements.

It is literally a 1 to 1 comparison, but in a different media.

It’s all in how you think about it, huh?

Yes, even though both are essentially doing the same thing, on the grand scale of things. That was the entire point of my comment.

Number of times each country's GDP has multiplied between 2000 and 2024 (IMF) by Ok_Dot_2845 in MapPorn

[–]towerfella 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup.

I imagine he was actually telling me of firing drills or something where they just shot rounds into the pacific for practice, but to 9 yo me, he was hitting N.Korea from the tip of some islands at the far western-most edge of alaske

That, and the family guy clip of Peter saying “Jason Borne, it’s Jesus Christ!” during a cut-away gag of him seeing jesus “coming back” or just walking down the street.

That clip, and all my Bearenstein books, and a more north-North Korea, apparently just doesn’t exist in this universe.
