minus-squarethreelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoThat reminds me… someone needs to make a u/stabbot equivalent for Lemmy.
minus-squareunalivejoy@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoI care that a laser pistol has a recoil.
minus-squareFuglyDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-25 months agoIt’s a blaster. It blasts stuffs. What do you want, scientific accuracy in a space opera fantasy? Okay. Then lasers also have recoil… just different recoil.
minus-squareteft@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoNot all blasters fire particle beams. Some fire plasma bolts that could conceivably give recoil. Also she is using the stun setting here. Maybe that gives extra kick.
minus-squareEheran@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoGiven the low velocity of the projectile, it could at best shot twice before it’s mass is gone.
minus-squaresynae[he/him]@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoUh huh. And what about the people hit by the laser blasts getting knocked back, do you care about those?
minus-squareMindTraveller@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoThat’s not a laser pistol. Star Wars blasters are plasma weapons. Brush up on your lore if you’re gonna nitpick.
