  1. Here's an idea: The entry orbs detect the forward momentum of the entering objects and warp space at the exit orb so that you can cancel forward momentum without canceling the momentum of the entering object. For example: You're going down the road at 55mph on a motorcycle. In front of you, there's a truck going 54mph. The truck has a ramp that nearly touches the ground so you can ride up it into the truck. When you ramp onto the truck, your forward speed, as viewed from a static observer (on the ground) only reduces from 55mph to 54mph, which is barely anything at all--people do it all the time. However, from the vantage point of a moving observer on the truck, you go from 55mph to 1mph very quickly. But the sudden change in momentum does not harm the driver because the forward speed isn't actually going from 55mph to 1mph; it's going from 55mph to 54mph. They proved this on Mythbusters. This could explain how the exit point of the orbs could cancel momentum without harming the transported object, because from an observer outside the 3D space, it would appear that the exit point is moving at nearly the same momentum as the entering object. You're falling into the orb at 45mph? Thankfully the floor at the exit point is "dropping at 45mph" to allow you to safely land without harming yourself. Or it's magic.
  2. It's the work of the G-Man!
  3. There's gravity (or else Freeman wouldn't be able to navigate it, nor would the vorts, headcrabs, agrunts and Gonarch) and there's no reason to believe there's no breathable atmosphere in Xen.
  4. I'm so glad you asked, DarkSaber. Check this out (that I just uploaded): viewtopic.php?f=29&t=7518 I'll throw a link in my signature as well so it gets spread far and wide (through this forum at least).
  5. Thanks so much, KevinJRattman for adding these Korean subtitles!
  6. Hello! danielsangeo here. Have you ever wanted to see the crazed typing of a madman? Have you ever wanted all the subtitles for Ross's amazing Accursed Farms videos typed by this madman, all in one place?! Well, look no further! The official Accursed Farms subtitles compendium is here! Simply point your browser thingamajig to: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0ByFalrGSTXzuRFFVNVhnazZvbmM&usp=sharing Here, you'll find Freeman's Mind, Civil Protection, Ross's Game Dungeon, and the other Accursed Farms videos, sometimes in a variety of non-English languages translated by other madpersons! That's right! Just go to: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0ByFalrGSTXzuRFFVNVhnazZvbmM&usp=sharing It's good!
  7. Tomato. Migraine or strep throat?
  8. Headachey.
  9. This is crazy in a box with a side order of fries! freeman_s_mind_episode_61_en.srt
  10. That's fine. I approve.
  11. The movie "folks!" with Tom Selleck and Don Ameche is a movie I can't really stand but my father absolutely loves. The story, in which a family man (Selleck) is suddenly thrust into a situation in which he has to care for his father (Ameche) who has advanced Alzheimer's, who's only lucid in one scene (and then for less than a minute). The dementia is played up for laughs throughout, especially when Selleck's character becomes increasingly grievously injured due to the hiLARious! bumbling of Ameche's character. To top it off, Selleck's character, a stock trader, is implicated in wrongdoing by the feds (he was one of the few innocent people in the firm) and has had his bank accounts frozen and his family falls apart. You know, for laughs! Finally, Selleck's character's parents concoct this scheme to commit insurance fraud to help Selleck's character out by committing suicide (because Ameche's character is useless, you see, and neither wants to outlive the other) but making it look like an accident. AND HE GOES ALONG WITH IT! The attempts (including dousing a car in gasoline while his parents are in it and giving the father a cigar, dropping the parents off in a 'black neighborhood'--because blacks are violent, right?, and finally allowing his dad to fly a plane while his mother rides along) all backfire in side-splitting ways! before Selleck's character finally comes to his senses and saves his parents from the plane (his father believes he's back in "the war" and nearly kills all three of them and some members of the Air Force who have gotten involved) and finally working things out. This movie has been described as a "dark comedy" but I see NOTHING funny about ANY of this. It's just.... YAAAGH!
  12. My beard has spoken. You shall have subtitles. ross_s_game_dungeon_revenant_pt1_en.srt ross_s_game_dungeon_revenant_pt2_en.srt
  13. I found that out the weird way. I loaded up Half-Life one day and, IIRC, went into that area in Power Up where the HECU had set up sandbags on the platform between the two fans (this area), and suddenly music began to play. Music that was both inappropriate AND appropriate at the same time. Enya's .
  14. Invest in headache medicine companies. ...every government official did not exist and Mogadishu was the norm?
  15. That is the question which preoccupies our people, Captain Kirk. We need breathing room. Earth, Hitler, 1938 I beg your pardon? Both your arms broken or both your legs broken?
  16. Get a cup of water and call from the bathroom, and "interrupt" the call, make retching sounds and then dump the water into the toilet bowl. Then hang up in the middle of the dumping. I want to get the Oculus Rift but people are telling me to wait for the consumer release version, but I don't want to wait. Advice?

  18. A TTY/TDD machine.
  19. Or some other substance unbeknownst to us (but knownst to them) that our armor cannot fully withstand.
  20. Banned for being predictable.
  21. ...for all the munitions ye swabs been providin' me with?
  22. Thanks! As to the teleporter tower, perhaps the rotating platforms are not actual "platforms" at all but Gordon is using them as it to ascent the tower in a way you're not supposed to ascend. Perhaps the "platforms" are just a way to power the teleportation balls similar to a turbine. Or they could be used to test the "timing" of the teleportation.
  23. c09MSi1G1Dc ...wait.
