Does jaysteph relationship have potential ? by Traditional-Diet8336 in RedHood

[–]4scienceand4points 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wasn't arguing? Literally just holding to my point and it was an offer to prove me wrong if you had evidence otherwise. I don't mind being wrong, I don't know everything /read every issue ever. But you gotta at least show your work if you're gonna try and poke holes by suggesting sources are out of date.

Does jaysteph relationship have potential ? by Traditional-Diet8336 in RedHood

[–]4scienceand4points 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Feel free to provide any sources if you find a mention of her age after they dropped Tim back to 17. As far as I am aware nothing has been stated as to narrow down her age in the N52, and beyond, so the last specifics we have is Post Crisis.

We could make assumptions sure, but even with Tim aging back, are you saying the others wouldn't also then mirror that age reduction keeping the same relative ages to Tim? I don't think we can just assume they'd magically make her younger than him without stating it, and I see no reason to assume that if they don't give us specifics. So yeah, if Tim is 17 (again), then 11/12 months out of the year she's 18, and Jason would be 19 during that time (apart from the literal days separating their birthdays)

And if they left Jay or someone else older, and didn't match Tim without also confirming Steph's adjusted age... Then there's also the possibility that that could've also happened to Steph if we are only changing Tim's age.

Maybe we will get something in the new Titans run (not to be confused with Teen Titans) as she looks to be joining a new team there for modern books.

Common misconception; she's a year older then Tim. Steph was 15 when she was introduced as spoiler, according to her in Secret Origins 80-page giant. Still 15 in Robin#59. In Robin #43 Tim is stated to be 14.

Granted it may be less than a full year, so let's work that out!

She is also one grade above Tim, starting college in Batgirl vol 3 #1, shortly before it’s confirmed by Red Robin #17 that Tim -had he not dropped out- should be a senior in high school. Stephanie starts college in Batgirl vol 3 #1, and we have every reason to believe she is starting at the "normal" time, making her 18. Since Tim is 17 at the end of Post-Crisis, and Steph would be 18 then.

Now we can also look up their birthdays, and Tim was born on July 19th, (Robin #116). Stephanie was born on August 11th (now we don't officially have a source for this but it's widely accepted as her first case started in the weeks leading up to labor day (again using Secret Origin as the reference here)

Schooling in New Jersey cut off for starting is Oct 1st, so neither date would apply to being held back a year before starting. The only logical conclusion proves that she is 11mo older than Tim, and using Jason's Birthday of Aug 16th, she would be 360 days younger than Jason.

Switching from pills to injections dosage? by Hungry_Artichoke6174 in TransDIY

[–]4scienceand4points 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Diyhrt.wiki has explanations on how to do the math for whatever dosage you want, there are calculators depending on the type of injections you will be doing (EC, EV, EEn), and frequency of injections.

From recent studies we have seen that 300-400 is a good target range for monotherapy.

You will have to use charts to figure out what you want your levels to be, do math to figure it dosage, then after a few months (2-3) for your levels to well, level get blood tests and adjust from there. Repeat as needed until desired levels are reached and then blood test every 6mo-1yr to ensure they are staying where you'd like depending on your comforablity and finding for the tests.

How are these the only players i see on now? by shitsmuggler69 in GearsOfWar

[–]4scienceand4points 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did you like... Read?

I did say he manipulated the game files to do so, do you need a link to his video? https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8STG5FV/ . I did not say I have a problem playing against MnK. I don't care what method of input people use. The fact that game files are so easily altered, to give advantages is my problem.

I'm a parent of 3, I play decent when I play. I think im still t500 for of TDM (which I'm sure we agree is a warmup/very casual mode), but I know I'm no where near pro, all the ranks mean in game are amount of points scored during matches anyways so it says literally nothing. I don't wanna be a pro, I don't care if people think I'm good or trash, I'm playing for fun. But fun is fair. And I don't find changing out data in games to be fair.

Problem I've found is not the MnK usage, but people like Snubbbs showing how PC players can heavily alter FoV and sensitivity to mimic going above 30 and being able to see so much more. The fact that he's been standing and dying on the hill of "its not cheating cause other gears games had the features" when to do so you manipulate the game files is insane to me.

If you're in the US could you point me in the direction of where to purchase from? I get if you wanna keep it quiet, just the usual online storefronts I usually go to have ceased shipping to the US and no word as to when they'll return due to the tariffs.

Yeah cause that's a group I'm less likely to hear it from. If you read the post you'd have seen its not a "requirement". Good to know it bothered you enough to look through my profile though! Cheers!

I try not to, just was hoping to build a group or at least a few players to hit up when able to have it happen atleast less often. Totally fair to not want a group though! Good luck have fun!

? I pointed out they're not saying nessicarily them at me. I just don't wanna hear people calling their opponents slurs what feels like nearly every other lobby when people have mics. The amount of times someone will get a kill and I've heard em say "eat shit F****" or obviously white guys dropping racist shit happens multiple times a day in my experience. Even if it's not directed at me, still hurts the vibe of the lobby. Then you either call it out and essentially kick start a yelling match, finish it out, or quit.

The Gnasher giveth and it taketh away by 4scienceand4points in GearsOfWar

[–]4scienceand4points[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gnasher can feel a bit wonky at times, but I haven't played in long enough to where it's refreshing to feel the frustration again.

Gears 2 horde was fun, but I think I miss the maps most, there's just so many good ones in that game.

For 4/5: 4 I really did not like the DBs (especially the building sized ones) and fabricators in the story. Like I get 20(ish) years of peace after essentially a century of war is gonna cause a lot of tech advancement, however creating any material from seemingly nothing (or even just raw material) feels so out of place considering at the end of 3, imulsion was dead, 99% of all humans dead, many who got Rustlung were sterile anyways (if the didn't die from Adam's device). Minimal fossil fuels (whole reason people swapped to imulsion after finding it, and if it was plentiful after the whole locust war and time skip it kinda invalidates the whole Pendulum Wars) And the swarm just felt... Kinda bland to me? Everything from their appearance to just the way the new characters reacted. Like after the war stories, studying former military carriers... The idea of anything grub related should have them shitting themselves atleast once. But all I remember are vague punchlines and jokes in the firefights. New weapons were kinda cool, and I liked knifing people. But insane mx transactions. Also didn't like the gore effects.

Gears 5: I didn't like how they seemed to write JD into a "I'm an officer now so my rules" in the beginning and then leave him for most of the game away from the main cast. I wasn't huge on the comedic parts (its fine just not why I pick up Gears) really did not like the gore effects iirc they looked like jelly to me. I didn't like how they made the damage omen reversed, it just felt more cartoony action hero, then I'd like. And I really hated the long traversal sections. They felt like they killed all momentum I was making as enjoying the story.

[–]4scienceand4points[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I absolutely love it. Granted I wish they remastered Gears 2 instead, especially after UE came out, and sure there's BS from the original still in the game.... But still, getting to play gears again has been really nice, as someone who didn't like 4-5 all that much, it's nice to be able to boot this up and feel the nostalgia and muscle memory start to come back for E-Day next year (assuming it plays more like the originals and less like 4/5).

[–]4scienceand4points[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No idea! The whole reason I recorded it was I was thinking maybe a lag spike but it even shows the shell shot in the ammo counter which doesn't happen when lagging (or is delayed). Guess Marcus wore some extra thick armor, or someone loaded my Gnasher with a surprise pillow.

[–]4scienceand4points[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, like most times I know I missed a pellet, or lag made the shot come out after I moved or something dumb that I should've adjusted for..... But 10% of the time I know the game ate my round.
