Because you'll never have enough resources to go exploring
And you'll never come back to make up what you loss

Look at this French mother fucker
pine tundra
this is basically not a recoil thing
a kastov 745 has a lot of recoil
what i did in this weapon is to use a JAK-B, an attachment that take almost all recoil of the weapon
woven badge
x - x Bruh that don't exist. The logic behind muzzles taking away recoil makes little sense. You get recoil from the round going off as well as the mechanism to chamber the next round. The muzzle makes VERY little difference to a weapons recoil in reality. x - x Mind you the muzzle is just the end bit of the barrel. That's all
In a semi or bolt action the recoil is entirely the round going off. Larger round = more recoil. Smaller round = less recoil.
Where the gas goes is important and how it travels out the barrel but the muzzle itself doesn't really change the formula all THAT much.
Unless a weapon is modular by design there isn't much you can do to change the recoil. I believe the newest issue of the SCAR is modular meaning you can replace the barrel at will.
You can replace the stock
woven badge
The SIG XM is also an example of modular design in a firearm. It can play a LOT of different roles as the pieces can be interchanged.
Heck there was a point the US tried making exploding rounds > x > Which is illegal under the Geneva convention.

Pieces of a Riven Mod, which are outrageously good mods specific to one weapon and its variants (e.g. a Latron Riven will work on Latron, Latron Wraith, and Latron Prime)
After you finish the Chains Of Harrow Quest, you'll unlock a new place in Earth called Iron Wake. A woman called Palladino will be there who can trade you a veiled Riven for 10 Slivers, in addition to other useful goodies
Have you ever played Zone Of The Enders? It's literally that. A jetpack usable in space, with 360° rotation. You also get specialised weapons only usable in space (by default, a massive minigun, and a big ass sword)
Complete the Archwing quest and you'll get your starter Archwing gear:

Mmmmm...this is very plausible but the thing that gets me is the emphasis on their eyes being "better".
Their eyes are exactly the same as ours it's just the way their brain processes the information. It's done slightly faster for their photorecepters.
Anyone experiencing an adrenaline rush would probably go through something similar. Time feels "Slowed down" which is just your brain processing information quicker at the time. The frames you take in are proceed so quickly it feels like time slows down.
NERD ALERT
This is actually why Captain America is actually really smart as well as Barry Allen Aka the Flash (Or any speedsters). Captain Americas brain processes information at PEAK human capability thus giving him faster response times as he's viewing the world faster but in his brain slower.
Same with The Flash. Since he's in a constant flux of taking everything in extremely quickly his brain needs to process this information quickly or he'd view every second passing by like an eternity.
Thus he's able to learn stuff at well Flash speeds since his brain is also operating at Flash speeds.

I love realistic Katana fights that show just how quickly the fight was over. It wasn't this long drawn out clash of swords.
It was over very quickly realistically.
sly ember
Reminds me of how Game Theory did a breakdown of Halo Energy Swords VS Lightsabers
Apparently the battery capacity of Energy Swords are so shit, that their entire design is meant to kill the enemy quickly, akin to suddenly knifing in CoD
Not meant for long drawn out Jedi battles but literally just for a "drop your gun and shank him" tactic
woven badge
Well I mean that makes sense realistically. In the world of Halo with all the weaponary...you'd look really dumb running at people with an energy blade you know is meant for quick engagements that you are already in close combat with.
The Jedi saber make sense for what they are as that is their main thing. They do not use blasters as it's agains the Jedi code. When you are magically powered to block blaster rifles it makes sense to use a light saber.
BUUUUT
I will say this....
A group of Jedis/Siths vs Spartans...or even regular soldiers
The Jedi/Siths would most likely lose.
Lightsabers can block BLASTER rounds. Energy bolts. The humans in Halo do not use energy weapons unless acquired from the convent soldiers. They use conventional metal rounds.
MEANING Lightsabers cannot block em.
It has been shown canon wise if someone tries to use a light saber to block a conventional bullet or what we consider one (even a musket ball) they don't get blocked but instead melt. This melted metal is then rained at the same velocity onto the blocker.
Thus turning one round into a spray of liquid metal flying at you at high speeds.

The lance is only good in mid range combat. UP CLOSE it suffers and of course with range combat it suffers

If you have hyper body to just tank the charge

He aint cutting through plate armor and without the knowledge of the joint weaknesses he'd suffer. Mind you knights wore chainmail under the plate

Can't blame Katanas. Weren't made with plate armour in mind. Usually tough leather lattices like wing/flap ones that samurai wore, or metal strips bound together to absorb impacts
Those armours had a ton of open points to facilitate movement, but made for massive flaws. And that's what they needed
One single cut. Against an underarm or neck. And that's what katanas were made for. Lightweight and nimble. Likely swings faster than your average spatha, shortsword or even doppelhänder, but very prone to breaking under excessively heavy impacts
woven badge
Nobunaga made musketmen popular but they were absolutely not the main weapon of choice for Samurais.
queen ferry
The katana is an important piece of their culture but it wasn't used as much as the spear
woven badge
Heck they didn't even have guns until the Europeans came.
queen ferry
The Europeans did not have guns first
woven badge
Dude you are very much confusing light infantry spearmen with Samurais
Spearmen were low ranked soldiers.
It was a simple weapon that was very easy to use.
sly ember
Yeah, the first load of flintlocks to land in Japan were from Portuguese missionaries that made landfall at Tanegashima
That was back in the late 1500s I think
woven badge
Something made for a peasent or low born. Not something a Samurai would typically use unless specifically trained to be horse mounted cavelry.
Katanas were Samurais bread and butter. So much so that Samurais were BARELY used in actual battle. They served as the commanders and the leaders of other people.
Footmen.
If you sent an entire team of nothing but samurais you're throwing away what are basically nobles in European standards.
queen ferry
Why would a samurai use a sword over a spear, they used the spear as a main
queen ferry
Nah
woven badge
Your history is very wrong.
queen ferry
The samurai used spears the katana is a last stand
woven badge
Yeah. Lol I'm done with this convo. I can't take you seriously.
queen ferry
Toby which one of us is right
woven badge
You're just saying everything incorrect
queen ferry
This is important
sly ember
Except from certain historical records I've come across online, despite it being a cultural symbol, Katanas were barely preferred by your average combatant. It lacked the reach of a spear, but also (given how compact Japanese dwellings and buildings were, especially in rural environments) took a lot of room to swing
Many bandits or journeymen literally settled for Tantos, Kodachi or at the most, a Wakizashi, with field combatants settling for spears
woven badge
Your average combatant wasn't a Samurai
They were footmen
Samurai were like the Knights of Japan.
Nobles.
sly ember
Like imagine a bamboo and straw shack, with rooms just larger than your average apartment bathroom. Good luck trying to make use of a katana in that environment
woven badge
They trained with the Samurai all their life. If in a cavlery charge they'd use a spear of course but once dismounted they'd switch to the Katana
sly ember
I'm not talking about samurai, I'm talking about the practical uses of a katana by people that were allowed to carry them, but weren't affiliated with the military
queen ferry
But we are
sly ember
Oh you asked me a question
woven badge
Good look trying to make use of a spear in that environment. x - x You'd need WAY more space to use a spear effectively than a Katana.
sly ember
Soz, I'm typing with one hand
Aight, both of you have points, sadly I'm not versed well enough on samurai in particular
I feel like the katana was worn more as a status symbol (see: Prussia, 19th century, where sabres were worn, but guns were used more)
While a samurai may have resorted to it, I can see them much preferring weapons with more practicality like a spear
This is just my take
I didn't study Japanese culture in school, I only know as much as I do from games like Ghost Of Tsushima, Nioh, and some other ones
So I'm not an expert, but I know more than most people I've come across irl
woven badge
So this is what a Samurai looked like
They ALL had a Katana as that's what Samurais bread and butter was
The Katana.
Everything else was conditional if they needed bowmen or needed cavalry men but for the most part the footmen carried a spear.
queen ferry
Yeah it is an important weapon, it was their side arm they used it when they couldn't use their spears or bow
sly ember
If I remember Like A Dragon: Ishin correctly, even Nobushi, the lowest rank of a samurai of a family, had a katana. It was kind of your license, a symbol of recognition. As your family rose in ranks, you were allowed to have more adornments on your katana (as again, if I remember correctly). Like a more decorative sageyo (the band that ties the katana to your hakama) or a hilt guard, or the thing
That dangles off the pommel
woven badge
It was typically used by certain samurais who were horse mounted
sly ember
So while yes, they wore a katana for combat, as Wanderer said, it was kind of a secondary option
woven badge
These are Matchlock soldiers used
They were not Samurais
As to use a matchlock for a SAMURAI was considered dishonorable
It was footmen or lower ranking soldiers who used em
woven badge
So while yes, they wore a katana for combat, as Wanderer said, it was kind of a ...
You'd charge with a Naginata and switch to the Katana when you were close as to use a Naginata in the middle of combat was insane. It was typically used horse mounted as that's how you'd be able to swing it properly.
Roman soldiers typically had a spear they'd use FIRST but it was just a use it first. Chuck it, then switch to what you'd actually use to kill people.
sly ember
Like I said. Secondaries. You wouldn't drop into a modern combat zone relying on just a pistol, but it definitely had its uses
woven badge
This is different as firearms and spears/katanas work completely different. x - x
The tactic was to use the spear to break the defense and switch to the Katana to do the rest of the job. It wasn't a secondary. A secondary is to imply that you wouldn't typically try to kill someone with it first and you'd mainly use that.
it's like how someone would use a RPG first
Then use their primary firearm to do the rest.
You wouldn't use an RPG and charge with a pistol like you said.
A samurai would use the Spear charge first, switch to the Katana and in a PINCH they had the smaller swords like the wakizashi or as I like to call it
The Smaller sword lol
yes I used Google to know the proper spelling of that word but yee the smaller back up.
AND they had a third blade for commiting well...
Samurai stuff if they lost.
I believe the Katana stopped being a thing after the Meji restortation
I think that was what it was called
The only era I really remember the name is the Meji era lol
sly ember
Yeah well I think we kinda lost the plot for this discussion
As I've said. I like flashy stuff. I play games for escaping realism. I like when a katana can effortlessly deflect bullets, so I'm thankful I know as much as I can
People can use whatever they please irl as long as they don't die, is all I'll say
woven badge
But the point when Japan was all "Alright...we gotta use guns. These swords ain't cutting it...Get it? Cutting it? Ahhhh, anyways."
Lol Well I was trying to let Wanderer know that Samurais absolutely did not use guns or spears primarily and used Katanas as a backup.
Which he was entirely convinced that ALL samurais did. Just wanted him to understand that noooo my duuuude. I get really into explaining stuff to people which is also why I taught in the past as well > w > Not long just a couple semesters here and there.
Feel bad for my parents as I'll actively call them and have long one sided conversations where I'm basically going ON AND ON AND ON about some useless information they don't need to know ever lmfao

Nah. It wasn't pretty I'll say that.
queen ferry
Documents certainly did help with ending it
woven badge
But realistically we could have gone harder. The people just lost the will to keep going. If we had soviet styled military doctrine where it didn't matter what you felt lol
You go fight or you die by gunfire right now. Soooo lol
Muricans went "Fck this." and yeah we left.
The same thing kinda happened in Afghan.
We kinda just went "Man, Fck this. Let's go home. We got better things to worry about"
woven badge
And as someone who went to Afghan...yeah that was the mentality
queen ferry
And we found out he had "charlie bit my finger" downloaded on his computer

A lot of us were just "Fck this. Why are we even here?"
Yeah we got Bin laden but...I mean...for what it cost it wasn't really worth it. You know what I mean?

Garys Mod is quiteee old
queen ferry
It wasn't as popular yet

Until my little brother started playing it

Garry mods was more popular because of half-life 2

Roblox is dumb >:c

That actually might be not that bad

It wouldn't be bad at all
It's just rice
Rice is the water of food
Refreshing to eat

But imagine if it has like...cooked pork pieces in it?

In Japan they say that fried chicken is a match in heaven with rice

But imagine if it has like...cooked pork pieces in it?
Oh yeah I forgot to mention this
Banana leaves
queen ferry
Grab a piece of cooked meat
Jerky, pork, chicken
Wrap it in rice
Then wrap it banana leaves
And steam it
sly ember
We do that in Bengali cuisine for certain types of fish
Banana leaf-steamed Koi is to die for

Banana leaf-steamed Koi is to die for
Koi? Haha
Such a beautiful dinner lol
Even though it's just a fancy gold fish haha
sly ember
Some of my friends are Pacific Islanders too. They have a thing called Hangi...or Hungee? Never saw the spelling
Basically they wrap meats in tree leaves, dig a hole in the ground, and bury it in the afternoon to have in the evening
Don't know the specifics but I think they add a few more things in there, but according the them, the meat comes out tender as hell
sly ember
Wanna try it one day, maybe if I ever go to the cook islands

Christmas island
sly ember
The Cook Islands are nice. 7 or so major islands with a crapton smaller ones
The main island of Rarotonga has literally just one road circling the island. It goes two ways, and there's two bus routes, going clockwise or counter-clockwise
Very nice traditional adherence, where it's illegal to construct buildings taller than the tallest palm tree
woven badge
Very nice traditional adherence, where it's illegal to construct buildings talle...
....What if I build a coloum as high as the tallest palm tree...and put a palm tree on top of that.
Or just connect a bunch of Palm tree main bodies together to create on giant palm tree
sly ember
You'd get deported
sly ember
Parts of the islandz have restrictions on vehicles (no 4-wheeled vehicles, no 2-wheeled vehicles, and no vehicles at all), and some are just restricted to outsiders altogether
Friend of mine is a descendant of Cook Islands royalty so his family has a very nice plot of land on this hill overlooking most of the island. He's thinking of building a villa there once he makes enough money
queen ferry
What about 1 wheels
sly ember
What about 1 wheels
You're gonna get thrown into the lagoon 
queen ferry
What if offer this to them
sly ember
They'll thank you for the food, give you a palm leaf wreath, then throw you in the lagoon
queen ferry
Think they'll enjoy sweet pork
sly ember
Pork is widely coveted by Pacific Islanders. Very abundant food source
queen ferry
I love sweet pork
But it kills me as I eat it
I will never drink soda and eat sweet pork at the same time
I cant handle both at the same time
sly ember
Pork is food for the soul

Attention and it works

Yee basically
queen ferry
Is his somewhat aware of what he is doing
woven badge
Funny enough he was originally a vegaterian lol
queen ferry
He just does it for the views
sly ember
He was a vegan food blogger
woven badge
He played the violin
Noticed he can get views for this nonsense aaaannnd that's where it took off
Basically most people the moment they can become viral doing something
That thing becomes their entire personality
queen ferry
He got hit by the youtube curse
Getting fame for one thing
And then doing that one thing
woven badge
Basically.
queen ferry
Classic youtube moment
woven badge
Any and every famous youtuber is famous because they do ONE thing that people really like.
sly ember
It's one thing to become viral for weird things (see: Filthy Frank). It's another to do so at the cost of your own health (see: Nikocado Avocado, Johnny Knoxville etc)
woven badge
Filthy Frank though was PURPOSELY playing a character
queen ferry
Except Charlie
sly ember
Oh don't get me wrong, Filthy Frank and Joji are near and dear to my heart for so many reasons
woven badge
I understand though > w >
Yee he weird
But...Nicky boi
Ole Nicky
He's a whole different avacado
queen ferry
I didn't know frank is who started the harem dance
sly ember
He genuinely looked like a friendly guy way back when. But...man, what chasing after internet clout does to you
woven badge
People don't realize Filthy Frank is Joji lol
sly ember
He couldn't have gone the ElectroBoom way, getting shocked for a living
woven badge
The hit rapper
queen ferry
The danger of youtube
sly ember
He chose obesity
queen ferry
Yeah but youtubers tend to be the ones that do it
woven badge
Some people handle viral fame with class.
Look at Charlie.
Or Pewdiepie for the most part.
queen ferry
Charlie was mainly his voice, pewdiepie was his amnesia gameplay
sly ember
People ig just like seeing people do things they themselves can't do. Once a following sets in, it's all echo chambers from there
woven badge
ACTUALLY Charlie started with silly gaming videos
He got VERY popular because of that
woven badge
And eventually went towards the reaction videos
queen ferry
He then did the commercial dubs
And then worked for danger dolan
For a bit
And then the reactions started
woven badge
People ig just like seeing people do things they themselves can't do. Once a fol...
I guess. People are obsessed with viewing stuff they think is taboo in society.
queen ferry
And now he is mostly drama unless you go to his streams
woven badge
If there wasn't a camera recording you and you were just doing these things as your actual personality
People would hate you
But since it has a camera and is uploaded online it's okay
queen ferry
Also the times has changed, back then people didn't do youtube for fame
It was just to share
woven badge
Exactly. You'd make videos for fun
queen ferry
A hobby for fun
queen ferry
These days it's very much fame
woven badge
Now you make youtube videos TOO get popular
Not because you just felt like dorking around.
Heck if you do that you'd get chased off the site lol
queen ferry
Also I feel like people forgot what entertainment is
They want people to be more real
And then they say they're too boring
woven badge
Right now entertainment means spending money
queen ferry
When I watch youtuber I don't care about whether it's fake
How good are they at entertaining me
woven badge
I remember the days of old school lets plays
When they did it for fun and their small follwer base
Now you do Lets plays so you can hopefully pair up with Mark or Jack or Pewdie
queen ferry
Nah Jack and pewds are actually real friends
Mark and pewds were that for a while
The Hollywood "friends"
woven badge
I dunno. See when you're as big as those two what counts as a true friend.
queen ferry
Ken
woven badge
I say if neither are invited to each others weddings or big events
Not true friends.
But this is slightly off topic...I don't like Mark
He's such a jerk to his friends he plays with
I don't understand the appeal.
queen ferry
All 3 of them are like that except wade
woven badge
Is it funny and cool to put down your closest friends in personal ways you know would actually hurt their feelings?
The big dude I forget his name always gets picked on
queen ferry
Wade
woven badge
Mark does it for the sake of being a jerk. Not for any comedic entertainment or because he's just a moron.
Mark
Mark is just mean because he's mean.
queen ferry
He did mention about that
woven badge
He let all the fame go to his head and is so rude to his friends.
It's like he thinks "You guys should be THANKING me you're even in my videos."
He doesn't acknowledge the fact he'd be nothing without those two.
People watched mainly because of the trio they had.
His solo videos are the most boring thing on his channel.
Since all he does is scream and purposely play incorrectly.
If I wanna see that I'll go watch Pewdiepie. He does it with character and charm at least.
Mark is that guy who when they play video games you can hear them across the house and it gets VERY annoying.
queen ferry
I got botted
queen ferry
Anyway tbf alot of people are really good friend tend to be rude to each other playing games
woven badge
No true true!
Heck being a jerk to your friends while gaming is like proof your friends lol
But mark is just a different kind of mean.
His mean isn't playful.
It isn't joking. It's not hahaha okay you make fun of me back 😄
queen ferry
You should see distractable because they do it to mark
woven badge
It's directed and targeted. When people play pranks on him back he gets mad like a child.
Like I can do it to you but you can't do it to me. This is MY channel! >:c
These are MY toys!
I can hit you with the ball but you can't hit me or I'm telling your mom! This is MY ball and this is MY house! >:c
For me it was very evident when they were playing that game you play as these kids on the ocean or something?
As well as this other game when you play as kids who got shrunken like honey I shrunk the kids.\
So mean in those videos! Like sheesh, mark. Wade is literally not saying anything because you've just been ripping into him nonstop and when someone does something to you you yell at em.
queen ferry
You missed one person though
Bob
They never go after bob
Even in drunk minecraft
Or raft
woven badge
I dunno who bob is
I just remember Mark
The fat dude with glasses
And the balding guy
queen ferry
Wade is bald

OKAY
So
Everything I said before
But Bob
Not wade lol
They go after Bob at lot!
A lot*
queen ferry
No they go after wade alot
woven badge
And Wade! Both get it
queen ferry
Bob is very much the one they team with to go after either wade or mark
woven badge
Heck I remember watching each of their streams during a game once and you can see the Bob getting upset as well as quiet
Another one wade got quiet and upset
There was one they both got pissed at mark
queen ferry
Monopoly?
woven badge
Where everyone kinda just didn't say anything for a bit
I don't remember as I stopped watching marks stuff a long time ago
queen ferry
Oh wait it might have been hand sim

Oooooo. I'm not too sure, actually. That's a pretty volatile thing to discuss online. I'm not equipped in the least to help with this, as my advice may be horrible
Probably not the best place to be asking but you can if you want
sage hazel
I know but i just need a different perspective u know
Basically my partner played a few rounds of overwatch with his ex, he didn't know she was going to be there but played on their team even after seeing she was in it, he told me and idk how to feel

Basically my partner played a few rounds of overwatch with his ex, he didn't kno...
Well...things can happen, I guess? It doesn't sound premeditated/pre-planned. Very chancey that they'd even match up like that
It's always good to cut some slack in a relationship. Worrying too much is never healthy for you or your partner, whereas worrying too little can exude a lack of commitment
You need to find your balance and give your partner some freedom. If you really believe they do love you, give them that benefit of the doubt. I know how it can feel, second guessing yourself when your partner's ex is involved, but just be mindful of how you express that
I doubt anything will happen, but do your due diligence as always, and be mindful of what goes on. Despite this, continue as you were, like I said, it doesn't sound like they planned to play together, and even if they did, it's often natural for people to try and reconnect with their exes on a friendly basis
