Off Topic / Mutatingpictures.com - Do these triangles look like a face to you?

« on: November 12, 2015, 12:28:56 AM »

This website algorithmically generates pictures that may or may not look like faces, bodies, or animals, depending on how you rate them on a scale of zero to ten. It's pretty interesting what the generator can spit out at you.

We had a mild storm today up here in Minnesota. The clouds swirling like that make me think this is the remnant of that hurricane that slammed Mexico recently.

Off Topic / Re: why is light speed the "speed limit"

« on: November 11, 2015, 06:55:46 PM »

because light is a wave and a particle does that void the bottlenecking of it being in a medium

No, it's still affected by being in a medium.

Shining a light through something like water is still going to slow it down because while light travels at c always, it doesn't necessarily take the shortest path there.

I'm going to steal an example from MinutePhysics. Let's say the President of Sealand always walks at a presidential pace of 5 miles per hour, no matter where he goes. In a 5-mile-long room filled with people though, he isn't necessarily going to take the shortest path out of the room, instead stopping and talking to different people about his administration, or kissing infants on the forehead, or ordering a tactical nuclear strike on India for some reason or another, still traveling between person to person at a fully presidential speed of 5 mph. However, he is going to take considerably longer to exit the room than if it were empty.

This is why c is the speed of light in a vacuum; just because a photon can take the shortest path out of a room doesn't mean it will.

« on: November 10, 2015, 08:54:17 AM »

there's an event called 'onimpact' which triggers if you land on the brick fairly hard

It'd be tedious and annoying to apply the event to every single brick in a build.
Unless you have a script that automatically events placed bricks, it's only feasible for a small area of a build.

I had an amazing run going as Lazarus until I inadvertently took Cursed Eye from a cursed chest because of Curse of the Blind

Curses



I also encountered this, fortunately just a visual bug

is the cursed eye even good for anything combo-wise?
