a big thing with fallout lore is they never invented a microprocessor, which is why a lot of it looks like the 50s

@dannyb2344 9 ай бұрын

That’s incorrect actually. They did invent it, but just much later in history they did, so that’s why vacuums tubes are still so prevalent.

@RedSntDK 9 ай бұрын

They did invent transistors, but the big divergence is that vacuum tubes became the popular choice and transistors are only used sparingly. What's funny is that EMP grenades would not be very effective against vacuum tube based robots, which is a bit of an oversight.

There is no such thing as a tipping culture that doesn't become socially manipulative and mandatory

@jamescarroll384 9 ай бұрын

I wonder if sometimes tipping coild generate more revenue, because whilst some people will decline paying anything, others may pay two, three or four times the average. For instance, imagine you had two identical attractions, like a museum or a historic site. One (Site A) has a fixed entrance fee (£X) and the other (Site B) is free but indicates that donations ate appreciated and help keep the site open. It seems plausible that enough people would donate >£X to support what they percieve as a positive educational and community asset to offset the loss from people who donate

In this context tipping would be just paying the CEO a bigger bonus. The guy who actually sweat over the game he developed is going to get paid the same salary no matter how generous we would be with tips. Anyone who thinks this would ever be a good idea is either from another planet or a CEO

Tim Cain has said, here on YT on his channel, that the point of the vault experiments was preparation for space travel. But! Tim Cain hasn't really worked on Fallout since the original game and the lore can therefore change at Bethesda's whim.

@plebius 8 ай бұрын

He isn't wrong on the overarching point, and that was never hidden at any point. He has a few details wrong. It wasn't world war two, it was the Boer war. It was originally set up to gather intelligence, and confuse the enemy. One example of this was delaying an attack as the enemy saw kids at a distance gingerly making their way through barb wire lines. However there was no barbed wire, they were acting like there was. Look at Colonel Baden Powell, who came up with the scouts. All the rest are splinter groups.

Scouts and guides generally go out to fundraising activities (selling cookies, in aus we do sausage sizzles, etc) whenever they have an event on. The proceeds generally go directly towards whatever event they are doing, as a way to reduce costs so that everyone can be involved. I would assume that everything before profit goes to whoever makes the cookies. This is also why they cost more than expected, since only the profit is going to the fundraising pool, and is why girl scouts/guides/brownies only sell them directly in person at random times

According to the show, vault tech promises a vault to specific megacorp style entities, to do with what they might do, for them to sponser and fund more vaults. Some of which are control vaults, and at least, well intentioned, if not still harmful. And then some.

@jacobking6517 9 ай бұрын

One funny thing about the scouts, if you get to the highest rank you can start one rank higher than everyone else if you join the US military when you are 18. IE you can join the Marines as a PFC instead of a Private.

@DubhghlasMacDubhghlas 9 ай бұрын

PFC is E3. Private is E1. You would start at E2 private second class. Now if you completed other things before shipping out with your recruiter you would be PFC. Which most people do.

XKCD said something along the lines that camera phones have quietly disproved bigfoot, nessie, ghosts, and the like. Twenty-five years ago, almost no one had a camera with them at any given moment, and yet we got occassional blurry photos of alleged cryptids and the paranormal. Now that almost everyone has a high-quality camera with video function on them at all times with their phones though, we haven't seen a staggering explosion in the number and quality of documentation for any of them. Almost like they don't really exist, hmmm...

Some of the Pokemon names got more creative with time. For example on of the newer Pokemon, Sprigatito. it's name breaks down into "sprig" as in plant, "gatito" is Spanish for a kitten. The Japanese name is Nyahoja, "nya" for the Japanese sound a cat makes and "hoja" is Spanish for leaf.

Vaultec uses vaults to test in a similar way to nazis did in ww2 - their main goal is to find out what happens when we do x to people because they can. The incoming war gave them basically a series of captive poulations to use. The data is supposed to be fed to the remainder of the company who went to a control vault where the can use the data they collected. Theres also suggestions that the caused the war in the first place, so they knew it was going to happen, and pressed syart when they were more or less ready.

@TheMiniMadCat 9 ай бұрын

My understanding of the long term reasons the vaults turned into experiments, prior to the explanation in the amazon series, was that in time all the vaults would need to be opened to reenter the world and rebuild society. To benefit the inhabitants of the upper vaults the lower vaults would be opened up to build society in preparation. The vaults were experiments that would usually result in the dwellers vacating out of necessity. The vaults would need different reasons for failure; a common fault would be far too suspicious. In addition, the setting of Fallout seats itself in a period of time when inhumane experimentation was the norm. So tests from how a vault will react to having the critical water supply microprocessor unit die to having a vault full of scientists govern themselves and anything else you can imagine fits rather well.

The question of collecting heavily pertains to japanese Otaku culture and commodity fetishization and autism. Sometimes collecting is like a compulsion, having things that are familiar and safe all around you gives you a false sense of the stability of the world. It is a fantasy within a fantasy (unless you are Marie Kondo Otaku)

Pyrion calling Alan Wake 1 shit has the same energy of someone saying Bathtub racing is a joke while being a massive Nascar fan. They're totally different things, and yes the former is pretty outrageous and that's part of why it's beloved imo. No hate to Dota or it's fans, I just couldn't stand the uncalled for shot at Remedy's (14 year old) Twin Peaks homage. Also Alan Wake 2 is very much worth a look, even if you didn't enjoy the first one. The sequel is Bonkers Brigade level weird.

I agree with Lewis regarding the tip or option to pay devs a little bit more. You'd have to be delusional to believe it's going to the people who made the product, and not just the bonus to the edgelord wall street CEO. It's another strategy to milk customers by providing the same product for more money. Make merch, make DLC, make content in exchange for my money and I'll buy it if I'm a fan. I'm not going to support a corporation with tips, that's ludicrous.
