I extremely am.

Which is just a footnote to Nintendo’s profits. Let’s not forget the difference between a 1 Million and 1 Billion is roughly 1 Billion.

Yeah, worst family trip ever.

I recommend playing them in order, you can Import your save file from 1 to 2 and from 2 to 3, carrying over narrative choices you’ve made. Also you get really good (and well earned) starting gear if you import the save.

The first one, while being ultra mega jank has some of the best writing out of any game I evet played. Choices really matter in this game and the game really respects your time for doing your homework whether it be monster hunting or investigations. It has more than the usually bad side, good side choice, characters can die because of your decisions (or even lack of). If you can see past babies first attempt of a combat system, the first Witcher game is amazing.

I know, I got like 400 hours in it.

If it’s the first one you found there’s gonna be some scripted damage and you’ll have to use it immediately as a tutorial.

What will be considered a classic car in 50 years? A 2017 Toyota Camry Station Wagon?

I knew hauling around a random jerrycan would pay of some day
shit, this thing is heavy when it’s full

Or just use Heelys like a normal person.

I think in 50 years we hopefully have figured out solid state graphene film batteries.

Yeah, they did the branding thing to people too.

Make only the next high feel like it’s the first one again, without overdosing.

They can get appease of my balls.

Your feet.

For legal reasons, this is a joke.

*Dark Souls flashback intensifies*

I think I haven’t played a single skirmish round of Company of Heroes 1 without the Blitzkrieg mod in the past 15 years.

I think in Massachusetts they just throw a glas bottle at you.

Is it a high refresh rate monitor? Had artifacts once on a monitor that had an “overclock” mode that ran it at 165 hz instead if 144 hz. Once I turned of the oc function it stopped.

That’s not really the limiting factor for pyramids. If you were to build a shape of equal height, say a cube, then yes this would be the main issue.

What are the failure modes for a pyramid?

• A 45° pyramid can’t tip over since it’s center of mass is always sufficiently far enough from the bottom edge. So tipping isn’t one.
• I’d say bending through cross winds is also not an issue for a pyramid unless you make it out of jello. So that’s also not a failure mode.
• Crumbling of the bottom layers because of the weight of the top layers is definetly one.
• Uneven foundation strength can cause the supporting area to be weaker in some spots more than in others, so that’s another failure mode.

I’d say the crumbling and Foundation issues are heavily mitigated by 2 main factors.

1st:

The outer edge is always of height zero. As the pyramid grows in height it also gets wider, but the only point that is at risk of imminent collapse is the very center of the pyramid, since it is the only point that will reach a critical supporting mass first.
Let’s say the pyramid reaches a height and the furthes block at the bottom in the center crumbles (let’s assume it actually turns into straight up dust). The clumbled block will still support some pressure but will also transfer it laterally into the adjacent blocks (essentialy like a liquid). Now the main question is “How many adjacent blocks does it need to support one crumbled block?”. If the answer is ≤1, than you have no problem, because with each new block in height, the pyramid also gets 1 block wider at each side. Similar to water pressure, the lateral force the blocks exhibit will increase linearly with height therefore never outpassing the increase in pyramid width. If it’s >1 than you will reach a point where the outer walls of the pyramid will start to collapse from inside pressure, and that will be your limiting factor for height.

2nd:

The blocks can be cemeted together, so whatever forces are being transfered laterally will not only be supported by the adjacent blocks, but also blocks adjacent to them and so on, and so on…
Same thing goes for uneven foundation strength. The local decrease in support will be spread over a wider area because the blocks are merged together. Also Pyramids are usually not build block on block, but with a 50% offset, which will further aid to stabilize the structure.

Usually, If you look at mathematical calculations for things like sky elevators the form to support the structure looks like a symmetric reciprocal function. This function actually requires way less material to support the weight of the center piece of the structure than a pyramid. So not only could a pyramid essentialy support itself until earths centrifugal forces take over, it would also be way too overkill in doing that.

Woah woah woah, slow it down, we don’t know if it was murder yet. For all we know it was self defence.
