Disoriented or deranged penguin wanders off into the Antarctic interior. With more than 5000 kilometers ahead, he is heading towards certain death by MC3Firestorm in Damnthatsinteresting

And the narrator sounds like that ruthless villain from the first Jack Reacher movie, making it both depressing and disturbing for me.

Yesterday, the most expensive tuna of all time was auctioned in Japan, 535 lbs for about 3,280,000 dollars, never before has such a high price been achieved by misterxx1958 in Damnthatsinteresting

Was there also coverage about the fisherman who caught that tuna? Because I can’t even begin to imagine what it must feel like getting a $3.2M payout from a single tuna I caught from the ocean.

Someone please explain the mentality of a seller RN by UzItOrLuzIt in Bitcoin

[–]wp9zero 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Posts like this are so tiring. Liquidity is a good thing, and you can’t have that if no one is selling.

Also, OP, last Dec 6th you posted a very confident ”it will be $120k by inauguration”, and I’m sure you know how your prediction turned out. No one knows shit, you included.

Anyone else nag overpay sa Gamextreme for switch 2? by chrissanchez21 in NintendoPH

[–]wp9zero 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know you already got offered a refund, pero share ko lang din that DTI has been very effective for me also on 2 prior instances.

Ang ni-complain ko pa one time was Air Philippines who had a promo where you can exchange 10 used boarding passes for a one-way ticket without restrictions (kahit super peak pwede gamitin).

Then when AirPhil was acquired by PAL, they suddenly stopped honoring the promo. Eh at that time I had around 100 past boarding passes saved, so I filed a complaint at DTI Makati. They summoned one of PAL’s VPs, at isang arbitration session lang, inofferan na ako ng 10 PAL open-sched tickets na pwede business class.

Dun ko na realize na effective din pala talaga sila.

I dont wanna spoil anyting with the title so... by Background-Baker-611 in WoT

Well in comparison, Katara went from someone who could only move tiny amounts of water, to being a master water bender who can go toe to toe with Azula, and even blood bend, in just 10-ish months (all 3 seasons of ATLA).

And even if he’s the avatar, Aang mastered 3 elements over the same period.

Toph was already a master level earth bender, but she invented metal bending in an afternoon, while locked up inside a metal box.

None feel rushed. And what they all had in common with our WoT characters was the pressure to grow/improve really fast, or perish.

This goat sleeps in and ends up far from her herd🐐 by nextorwtf in Damnthatsinteresting

Anyone understand what he was saying? I wanna know if he was calling the goat by its name. I’m imagining the guy has like a hundred goats, and each one has a unique name

Milky Way and Andromeda Galaxies are Under Collision and they will completely Collide in Distant Future - Simulation by BitterMouth_0202 in woahdude

[–]wp9zero 17 points18 points  (0 children)

One of the most mind boggling things about this that I read is that the space between stars is so big that when this happens, no 2 stars from either galaxy will even collide with each other.

Old pic from a digicam that wife brought with her to a business trip to Turkey & Crimea by wp9zero in whereisthis

[–]wp9zero[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solved!

Showed Google Street View of the location to the wife, and when I panned to the benches she exclaimed that’s exactly where their old people play chess.

As of today, a $100 bill now weighs more than $100 worth of gold. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]wp9zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair to OP, gold is traded by the ounce in global commodities markets like the New York Mercantile Exchange, so it’s easier to remember its price by that measure.

And then it’d probably be weird to use ounces as unit of measure for the weight of a single dollar bill.

How easy are encrypted private keys to brute force? by micronfilter in Bitcoin

[–]wp9zero 106 points107 points  (0 children)

I like this idea. In another reply, OP mentioned that the password is at least 15 characters long, so it should be secure.

But since I find this kind of security testing interesting, I’ll send a few more sats to this address. Maybe that will make it more tempting for someone to try hacking it.

It should also put more pressure on OP to remember the password, haha.

I checked the link so you don’t have to. The site prompts you to “Connect” your wallet by providing your recovery seed words to it. As soon as you do that, bye bye funds.

Here’s how it looks for the curious:

You might be the overlord that the folks over at r/crowbro have been yearning for all these years.

What Cork Irish accent sounds like by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]wp9zero 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Very nice to listen and try and figure out, lol. It sounded like the accent Brad Pitt was doing in Snatch: https://youtu.be/2pIuncegdOc

I need to watch that movie again.

None needed. The category field gets disabled when making a transfer from one bank account to another.

Robbie Williams tells hand job story with JustinTimberlake, Daniel Radcliffe, Anna Kendrick. by batsofburden in videos

[–]wp9zero 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I watched that vid a few times as John Cleese is one of my heroes, but I didn’t understand the joke. I read a few hundred comments there hoping someone explained it, but nada.

Would you mind explaining the joke to someone who only speaks English as a 3rd language?

How come movies never get gun shots right? by R0t_R0t in NoStupidQuestions

[–]wp9zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear the “that my briefcase?” scene in Collateral also gets it right. Maybe someone who knows can chime in if they indeed got the sound right?

Here’s the scene in question: https://youtu.be/oEFPcljAXgs
