This is a game made for CRT/OLED monitors, too. Gotta have those perfect blacks for maximum horror. Amazing how good this game looks and sounds for being the age it is.

You don’t have to outrun any bears. That’s the entire point of the metaphor.

You said there’s no point. I contend there is a point.

The point is to make it slightly less convenient to steal from. This is the purpose of literally all locks. There are no locks that can’t be picked or bypassed. I don’t care if it’s my underwear, pants, shirts, shoes, whatever. They’re mine and I packed them because I want to use them. I’d prefer they’re not stolen, and some of my clothes are valuable, or at least I don’t want to spend the money to replace them.

Maybe someone’s just having a shit day and wants to fuck with luggage to be obnoxious. I’d rather it not be mine, and a lock makes my bag slightly more annoying to fuck with.

Agreed that a lost bag is much more likely than theft. I have an AirTag in my bag to help with that scenario.

There is a point: make your bag slightly less attractive to steal from. You don’t have to outrun the bear, you just have to outrun someone else.

Likewise with Brussels sprouts

Turns out there are stupid questions.

This is neat but also stupid. If a laser has enough power to fry a mosquito, it can also fry your retina.

Yes, I’m aware he added a safety system. That’s one layer of Swiss cheese in the safety system. It’ll work flawlessly until it doesn’t. How are potential reflections handled?

Most all pensions or 401Ks are using index funds of some sort. Nearly everyone is affected by this.

2” in the standard, sometimes you can get 3” recline in economy+ seats.

Yeah, 6’3” and 1/2” with bare feet, standing up straight.

I’m 6’3” or 1.9m tall. I fly monthly for work. Putting the seat back has little effect on leg room because the pivot point is just below your knee level. It steals a bit of room going straight forward from your head/shoulders but you can reclaim this lost 2” by also reclining your seat.

If you’re kicking seats rather than reclining your own to get back to the same exact space as non-reclined just at a slightly more comfortable angle, you’re the asshole.

I love this guy. Highly recommend his “Spiritually Depraved and Misery Inducing Landscapes of North America” series. Fuck it’s bleak in so many places here.

You’d just need metal for this.

Obviously some goes out laterally, but next to the ground is where the lowest flux of shrapnel will be.

Neither do any motorcycles, and they’re allowed on the road.

1. easily will break glass, they’re heavy, dense, and hard

2. hit the deck, the explosion will be up and out

3. shrapnel is how fragmentation grenades kill, not the overpressure wave

Nah, seems like they just misinterpreted what I was saying.

No worries, thanks for allowing me to explain and reading what I said. Online discussions can be difficult these days.
