Yes I’m pretty sure 75 percent of this site is autistic. Let me have my stupid joke.

Fallout 2 personally. Was moreso making a joke about how the Fallout community is like 25 percent autists.

This is the most autistic thing you could’ve done. On a related note on autism, which Fallout game is your favorite

Same thing where I am, I could go to Wendy’s and get a meal for 15 dollars that won’t fill me up or I can go down the street and get a breakfast burrito the size of my forearm and a large drink that’ll last me until noon for 15 dollars. While I may be rather lanky in my arms that’s still a fucken forearm worth of food thatll hold me over till dinner.

Best advice I can give is to look at online auctions, estate sales, and check out to see if there are any Goodwill’s near you that specialize in electronics. You can run a lot of modern games on 10 to 5 year old hardware, probably won’t be the prettiest build but hey if it works. Also remember you can always tear open a modern laptop for that sweet sweet storage.

IDK why but the dude in the background sitting in the plane like that is cracking me up.

Hey now dont do my boy Saint Nicholas dirty like that, he was an Anatolian Greek. The Turks were still firmly in central Asia during his lifetime, though Anatolian Turks are a mix of the of the nomadic Turks and Anatolian greeks it’s one of those things where the distinction is notable. It’d be like calling Vercingetorix French, like it’s not technically wrong from a regionalist perspective and his people did help form the French but it’s still wrong on a lot of levels.
Also fun fact Saint Nicholas punch Arius in the face at the council of Nicea. Also his bones are now leaking and have been for awhile, though it’s probably two different things being merged into the same myth, they used to put certain oils into sarcophaguss back in his lifetime and it probably became a pilgrims tradition later on and his modern sarcophaguss in Italy probably works as a condenser for water.

The Latin and Greek speaking parts of the world probably had a word for purple by that point. Remember the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes who would evolve into the medieval Anglo-Saxons were from around modern continental Denmark to about the modern Hanover region. This area didn’t really have the color purple all that much and frankly speaking Britain ain’t much better on that front, probably why it took till around the viking age to get a word for it since that’s when pan European trade started to pick up again to a large enough degree for purple dyes to start getting to Britain on a regular basis.

It’s because it’s a less distinct element from blue than red is to yellow. It’s kinda like how someone can tell the difference between a heavy machine and a pistol but they may not be able to tell the difference between a rifle and a shotgun.

Also Helios One from Fallout: New Vegas is based off of those, though I don’t think we’ve figured out how to make an Archimedes mirror out of one and a reflection satellite yet.

Sure but even that isn’t all encompassing. I’m from SoCal and my accent/dialect has so many archaicisms that I’m probably one of the only people under 50 with the damned thing. What I get for being around old people I guess.
Though I do suppress into something approaching the general accent when talking to others, mostly because for example Mountain Dew gets mangled into münten doo.

It kinda looks like her outfit is multiple components. An undershirt skirt and vest, that is unless this is a Fred from Scooby Doo situation where they have a visually identical outfits that are all mechanically different. Regardless she probably just rolls up the skirt, source I have gone to the bathroom in both a toga and a kilt.

Best part is I’m the only living person who witnessed the whole situation. Note the microwave caveman is the son of my great uncle, so cousin once removed if memory serves right don’t really keep track of trite terms like that. But my great grandfather and my uncle (mother’s brother) just were watching the whole repeatedly microwaving thing just kinda waiting to see what would happen, took about 20 minutes but it resulted in the so called microwave incident.
This whole thing will be with me for the rest of my life despite happening when I was 4, I am now 26. You may see why I directly associate microwaving water with unga bunga caveman energy. It ain’t just cultural it’s probably part of my personality foundation.

It really was. If he had just microwaved it once or twice I would assumed bad luck, but I’m pretty sure he was on his fifth or sixth time by the point the glass shattered. I even asked him a couple years ago if he remembered that whole thing and according to him he only remembers the fire, though according to his dad he was probably high on edibles.

Probably my older cousins back in the early 2000s when I was like 3. Watch one of them repeatedly microwave a bowl of water till the glass fractured causing the water to all spill into the microwave which long story short resulted in an electrical fire inside a camper trailer. No I don’t remember what the fuck he was trying to do, may have been as mondane as making top ramen.

Fair enough. Should probably note I’m Californian and derived from non tea drinking stock, that’s for the Asians and Brits or my grandmother since she picked it up from her very British grandmother.

Eh it only really a factor for heating up water in particular due to the square cubed law. Doesn’t take that much energy to reheat leftovers or nuke two hot pockets.
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 3 weeks ago:
Well also I’ve grown up around microwaves with questions wattage so rather than boiling or near boiling water you get slightly hotter than the tap water.

I’m aware but there’s this weird visceral unga bunga energy to it. It’d be like using a diesel generator to farm crypto it just feels fucking weird.

I’ve seen folks say it’s him going full Kakarot, IE his Saiyan side comes out in full. Also I wonder if Vegeto would’ve wasted so much time if that was his main personality.

I know what you mean but also there is a viseral vibe around microwaving water in particular that feels very caveman coded in the weirdest way.

As I understand it it was less so a matter of direct spelling changes and was moreso a matter of “correcting” pronunciation of school children. While it’s generally failed every generation or two it seems the English face some version, the most notable being the shifter of how to pronounce solder so as to pronounce the L. Though that one in particular may just be people not knowing how to say it as well.
Also as an aside Webster simply documented the most common spellings of words at the time, while he definitely had an impact on a lot of the spelling most of it was pretty well spread by the point he published his dictionary. Printing presses charged by the letter so superfluous letters generally got abandoned namely the U in a lot of words since it generally doesn’t effect inflection in American English, I’ve also seen variants wherein silent Ls and Ks were dropped though most of those ones didn’t stick probably because nife just kinda looks wrong.

If memory serves they’ve had at least one government backed effort to relatinize certain words in their dialect. I do respect any country that does that on an intentional and purposeful level, it’s why I don’t respect the French and why I have gripes with the Icelandic.

The worst part about this is that if Karl Marx was alive today he would 100 percent be posting shit like this online. You cannot convince me that Karl Marx wasn’t the 1800s equivalent of that dude giving indepth historical economic overviews to his team in CSGO.
- Comment on Two types 3 weeks ago:
Plenty of archaic uses are still common depending on dialect. One of the more annoying aspects of Cambridge and OED is the assignment of archaic to older or lesser used forms that may still be common in parlance bet fell out of favor in most other ways.
Also I refuse to listen to what the English have to say on the English because they keep intentionally fucking with their dialect.

Well aware but kitbashed great value brand versions of historical uniforms is just kinda a weird side effect of me collecting military surplus and military antiques.

Fun fact I have a swedish tankers trench coat from 1940 and a Swiss helmet from 1942 when I wear them together it basically looks like legally distinct werhmacht. I can pull the samething with an American armor school long coat and a Yugoslav helmet for the Soviet equivalent.
It’s technically not Nazi apparel. It annoys my friends though.
