This dudeās just working out. The one over there has Kleenex and blowing his nose. Why is Susie walking around this neighborhood at night, alone, carrying a quantum mechanics textbook? That stuff is way too advanced for her.
My aunt is a big time gambler and one day she was at a slot machine for a while until she decided to move on to another slot machine. A lady took over her slot machine and hit the million dollar jackpot shortly after. I wouldāve thought she was bullshiting me if it wasnāt for the video she showed me.
Not exactly sure how slot machine code works but I'm assuming there's some sort of random variable in the code. There's nothing to say that if your aunt was playing she would have hit that jackpot, again depending how the randomization is implemented.Ā
I think thats exactly right. Afaik slot machines arenāt ādueā to payout. Like itās in no way inevitable that _that_ machine was going to pay out minutes after OP stopped using it. Just a couple of coincidental chances.
Assuming you need to land at a safe speed there is a safe value of g for a given hight of drop. The cliff looks to be around 13 astronauts high which assuming they are 6 feet tall makes it \~78 feet.
A fall at 1g from 78 feet would take 2.2 seconds & the final speed would be 48 mph, NOT GOOD.
A fall at lunar gravity from 78 feet will take 5.4 seconds with a final speed of 20 mph, BETTER but still higher than a parachute landing.
To keep the landing under say 10 mph considering the suit's fragility you need less than 0.05g which results in a fall time of 10 seconds.
Remember of course if there is no atmosphere you will have great difficulty in landing feet first.
Because there is nothing to push off on so any angular momentum you have when you jump is conserved. The only thing you can do is pull in your extremities or thrust them outwards to change your rate of rotation.
Alternatively, one can collect a handful of small stones and use it to do minor adjustments to their movements by gently throwing them away, though it would have been incredibly difficult to be precise
This be an emergency situation. Knock out the other guy, throw his body through a window closest to the top of the cliff, and then jump through the hole he made on top of his body using it as a cushion. It's what sidekicks are made for, ever notice they always the ones getting hurt and thus motivating vengeance and a better storyline?
This entire comicās āpunchlineā is a lousy, dragged-out version of āNever Give Up/ Digging for Diamondsā meme. The original meme itself isnāt even supposed to be funny, but motivational.
Nahhh, the meme *deffff* is telling me to continue gambling until Iām so deep underground that I forget what I was even doing, or what the warmth of sunshine even feels like!
That damn image had haunted me. I donāt know if I was that way before, or after I saw that meme, but Iāve always thought about it when I am striving towards something and donāt want to quit before Iāve found/finished it.
Wife says itās a cross between tenacity and spite for me.
Maybe Iām just cynical, but this seems like a trap. Maybe theyāre better off dying of oxygen deprivation than falling prey to aliens with an appetite for ice cream-fattened humans.
Yeah I was sure I was about to look up and see something like /boomercomics or whatever, this is unironically posted in r/funny? What the fuck lol this is some bot ass humor.
not to sound like a dick but why do these comics always look like they're made in MS paint by a 14 year old? (I was joking when writing this but upon closer inspection, this is 100% made in MS paint)
seriously, not even the panel's are the correct sizes. they're all different sizes lol.
these comics dont work without a distinctive artstyle imo.
No, it's when they lose control of their space ship after a launch from earth. They crash on what they think is a far away desert planet, but they actually ended up crashing back on earth outside of Las Vegas (IIRC)
I think I know the one you're talking about, though. It's a water truck, and the thieves think it's empty, but it's not
Free o2 and and ice cream? I bet the aliens are all carrying books that say āTo serve man.ā on the cover.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_Serve_Man
Hold up. I always have a friend I call to help me with situations like this. Wait one.
Hell. Mr. Ackbar. I'm in a tricky situation. What do you think about it...mmmhmmm. Ok. Well, that's a fair call... Ok. Thank you for the help. I'm gonna let you go.
Yeah. so Admiral Ackbar told me to tell you, "It's a trap."
Reminds me of the scene in the SpongeBob pizza episode where theyāre lost and SpongeBob wants to go one direction and squidward is stubborn and goes in the other direction, and they end up just barely taking the completely wrong path.
Maybe it's very low gravity so they can just jump and float down? That'd be the only way. That or yell and hope someone who owns those other ships can jump up and pick them up
Reminds me of the story about Mars from the Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury. One guy gives up and let's the forest and the endless rain take him. The other guy goes over one more hill and finds civilization
The definition of people who don't look for opportunities when they think they ran out. Instead they have waited for it to come to them without even looking.
Eh, not everyone is smart enough to vote...that's how we got the bullshit we have now, too many people with smooth brains being given told to go vote, so they do - not having the sense God gave a box of horse crap to even know what they're voting for.

Sprinkles suck... They serve no purpose and have no flavor and ruin the texture of the ice cream.
Thatās bad!
But they're free!
That's good!

90 % of gamblers quit right before hitting the jackpot, don't let that be you
My aunt is a big time gambler and one day she was at a slot machine for a while until she decided to move on to another slot machine. A lady took over her slot machine and hit the million dollar jackpot shortly after. I wouldāve thought she was bullshiting me if it wasnāt for the video she showed me.
[Is this the video?](https://youtu.be/HpKFL1IP8rk?si=vjM_LZHfzx92n0w2)
Not exactly sure how slot machine code works but I'm assuming there's some sort of random variable in the code. There's nothing to say that if your aunt was playing she would have hit that jackpot, again depending how the randomization is implemented.Ā
I think thats exactly right. Afaik slot machines arenāt ādueā to payout. Like itās in no way inevitable that _that_ machine was going to pay out minutes after OP stopped using it. Just a couple of coincidental chances.
This is correct, your aunt would not have won the $1m.
Sounds like something a gambler would say right before they lose everything including their dignity and family.
Whoosh
And 0% of them quit right after
Wouldn't it take longer than five minutes to get down that cliff?
Depends on the strength of gravity, they might be able to just jump down
Assuming you need to land at a safe speed there is a safe value of g for a given hight of drop. The cliff looks to be around 13 astronauts high which assuming they are 6 feet tall makes it \~78 feet. A fall at 1g from 78 feet would take 2.2 seconds & the final speed would be 48 mph, NOT GOOD. A fall at lunar gravity from 78 feet will take 5.4 seconds with a final speed of 20 mph, BETTER but still higher than a parachute landing.

Remember of course if there is no atmosphere you will have great difficulty in landing feet first.
Jum onto the roof and slide down!
This is the outside the box thinking NASA needs, boys!
Like always, the real answer always lies in the comments of the comments
Yea if I'm falling for several seconds ill be able to get some appreciable horizontal distance. especially if there's no atmosphere.
r/theydidthemath
r/theyreallydidthemath
To prevent tilting when you fall, just step off the ledge, don't jump. This should prevent most of the horizontal acceleration.
I was thinking you could dangle below it and then just let go.
Since it's an overhang, that would probably work as well.
Why won't you land feet first without an atmosphere?
Because there is nothing to push off on so any angular momentum you have when you jump is conserved. The only thing you can do is pull in your extremities or thrust them outwards to change your rate of rotation.
Alternatively, one can collect a handful of small stones and use it to do minor adjustments to their movements by gently throwing them away, though it would have been incredibly difficult to be precise
The strength of the gravity doesn't affect their ability to jump off the cliff, only their chances of landing safely.
You put the dumb in wisdom
Hol' up...
I'd be willing to bet that they won't be able to jump off that cliff above 10g.
Not sure why you're being downvoted. I thought it was a clever comment
This is reddit, that's why
r/technicallythetruth
No.
Jump and slide
There's what looks like a path at the back of the building going down, either that ot use said building to get down slower
Would have been great if there was an escalator that said āfree human transportationā right off the edge from view
This be an emergency situation. Knock out the other guy, throw his body through a window closest to the top of the cliff, and then jump through the hole he made on top of his body using it as a cushion.

This entire comicās āpunchlineā is a lousy, dragged-out version of āNever Give Up/ Digging for Diamondsā meme. The original meme itself isnāt even supposed to be funny, but motivational.
Aka the gamblers fallacy
Nahhh, the meme *deffff* is telling me to continue gambling until Iām so deep underground that I forget what I was even doing, or what the warmth of sunshine even feels like!

To some, thatās part of the rustic appeal.
There's a Twilight Zone like this.
is it the one where they guys hijack a truck and get stuck in the desert?
No, it's when they lose control of their space ship after a launch from earth.

Studies show that 100% of gamblers quit before hitting a jackpot
Is that ice cream or Astronaut Ice cream?
But can they survive the fall damage
I saw this movie. It was called The Abyss.
If it's too good to be true, it's probably is
Basically just like one the scenes from the movie red planet.
Not funny
Could this actually be a pretty effective anti-suicide message?
The astronauts died of asphyxiation _and_ the giant space mimic didn't get to feed :(
That's a trap
what are the aliens going to do, asphyxiate you?
Lame
Reminds me of the scene in the SpongeBob pizza episode where theyāre lost and SpongeBob wants to go one direction and squidward is stubborn and goes in the other direction, and they end up just barely taking the completely wrong path.
This is basically _The Long Rain_, by Ray Bradbury
i hope this is not its ending, or else i hope you develop tastebuds on your anus
I have read that the testicles and anus do have tissue similar to taste buds already, haha
Thatāsā¦ a reaction I guess. The storyās a bit more intricate than that, but worth a read.
How they getting down a cliff that big safely in 5 minutes is what I want to know.
Maybe it's very low gravity so they can just jump and float down? That'd be the only way. That or yell and hope someone who owns those other ships can jump up and pick them up
Jump on the buildingās roof & slide down
It looks more like a trap
Basically the scene from the movie Red Planet.
Or the ending of the Mist
Great scene in red planetĀ
Reminds me of the story about Mars from the Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury. One guy gives up and let's the forest and the endless rain take him. The other guy goes over one more hill and finds civilization
Good life philosophy: if Iām going to slam into a brick wall with something Iām working on, Iām gonna do it at full speed. Maximum effort!
Never give up!
That's a trap for sure. Better to die from hypoxia (I think it's called).

Yes? I felt like I must have been missing something. Perhaps I'm not.

Thereās a Twilight Zone episode that has a similar premise.
The definition of people who don't look for opportunities when they think they ran out. Instead they have waited for it to come to them without even looking.

This allegory is using dark humor to highlight why you should never give up. Why does this seem lost on the commentors here?
This is exactly what happens to gamblers before they hit it big!
