Al Gore and many others said there wouldn’t be any ice at all in the polar regions by 2013.

Obviously climate change it happening, but the computer models they keep showing have been proven to be bullshit over and over.

ChewTiger,

Doesn’t mean we can’t learn from them. The process of developing those models can be incredibly useful in learning about complex steps. They help us understand what conditions and variables are important to look into. We can figure out what we know a lot about and what is still a complete mystery.

Turbulent airflow is an incredibly complicated thing, we still haven’t fully solved the Navier+Stokes equations. I hope to be alive when someone does.

Just because they don’t perfectly figure it out the first time doesn’t mean we should stop putting effort into incremental improvements. Though we do have to be careful that we are not wasting resources when there is a more efficient path forward. Simulations are one of many important tools, we just have to use them wisely.

Whatever benefits you get out of letting an AI write code for you, is lost as soon as the corporate overlords claim your work as theirs because they own the AI that wrote it.

This isn’t just random weirdness. There was apparently a point in the middle aged when a lot of people believed cats would steal men’s genitals.

Funny that this post would show up next to this one: lemmy.world/post/10902481

TokenBoomer,

Good stuff.

What could be shoot that he didn’t already shoot? In the books, he already managed to fell a fell beast from long range. And it’s not like shooting the eye of Sauron with a sniper rifle would kill him.

the_joeba,

Not with that attitude

takeda,

He did all of that with a bow, imagine him with a sniper rifle…

Mango, (edited )

Honestly, it seems like he’d have about equal stopping and slower fire rate.

Blue_Morpho,

Same number of kills just at longer range. Gimli still wins.

jewbacca117,

it would be much harder to stab an orc with an arrow then shoot said arrow if Legolas was armed with a sniper rifle

Khrux,

He could just do the equivalent and stab them with bullet, duh

Ephera,

Bayonet?

ryathal,

A sniper file would have stopped the orc that blows up the wall at helms deep.

And it’s not like shooting the eye of Sauron with a sniper rifle would kill him.

I agree, but I still think someone should have tried. Even if it didn’t kill him there’s a giant gulf between not killing him and doing nothing.

This applies more to Voldemort than to the eye of Sauron tbh. Ofc he has horcruxes blah blah blah but if they just got an SAS sniper to shoot a 50 cal sniper round at him from a mile out - again, I’m not saying it would kill him but… would it have done nothing? All I’m saying is there’s a thing called due diligence and they should have at least tried.

Also it might be possible that attacking the eye of soron could blind him.

Ilovethebomb, in Now who is laughing?

You should post this to noncredibledefense as well.

betterdeadthanreddit, in God is with us

A shit post is not necessarily a shitpost. Good candidate for illustrating this, thank you for sharing.

“What do your elf eyes see?” takes on a whole new meaning.

AlligatorBlizzard, in life hacks

I’m surprised some tech company hasn’t put waterproof touchscreen devices in their employee locker room showers so that their employees can reply to email in there.

Acters,

I’m surprised they didn’t add them to the toilet stalls either

Bullets are faster than sound. So it might be bang, splat, toot.

mojofrododojo,

subsonic ammo is a thing, esp. for suppressed firearms - that way you never get a crack, and only hear the mechanical action of the assemblies reciprocating.

Ghostalmedia,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

Noted, clown horn might counteract my suppressor.

mojofrododojo,

yeah I mean the horn is what we’re trying to preserve, not the crack.

Ghostalmedia,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

I’d pay to see the John Wick silencer flight dubbed with those “her-huh” clown horn sounds.

.45 acp default rounds is subsonic

mojofrododojo,

Valid point. But is that .45? the barrel looks small.

Frankly I can’t identify the firearm.

bruhduh,
@bruhduh@lemmy.world avatar

Looks like .22 they too can’t achieve over subsonic speeds in pistols example of that is lr 22/45 pistol

bnaur,

It’s a russian Margolin, or some variant. So yes, a .22LR.

Which is exactly in line with the meme.

I could totally see this in the next Borderlands game.
