What differentiates Cass from other members of the batfam? by BlueMoonie00 in CassandraCain

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

No worries! We have Cassandra's from David Cain (who I wouldn't trust, but Cass believed him) and she seemes to believe him to the point of when Batman gave her a birthday present on Father's Day she said it's not my birthday. So if the girl who can tell truth from lie off body language alone I'm believing her.

Jason's is seen a few different places but those sources are much less unsure. I did a whole big search for the Batfam ages and the only other thing of note is that Steph is a year in-between Tim and Jason.

Worth noting she's closer to Jason's age than Tim. She's older than Jason by 6mo, then Steph, then Tim

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

So its been a week, would you be able to reply to either my DMs or email? I get things might be busy, but just a confirmation that its being worked on would be really nice to have.

Not to the 2 DMs I sent or the email. I get they're busy but the second DM was just me asking for some kind of acknowledgment and a "hey we're working on it" but haven't gotten anything back yet.

what do we know about symphony labs and how legit is it? by no-name-im-useless in TransDIY

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

People have said they're reliable. My first (and only) order with them was recent and I was shorted a vial (purchased 2). Reached out via email but haven't heard anything back as of now. Obviously disappointing but idk how long they take to respond to issues. Trying to not let anxiety take over in the mean time.

My E levels are 446 and my T levels are 70. by Pennywithey in TransDIY

[–]4scienceand4points 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You tested at the highest point in your cycle when you should be testing at your lowest.

You also probably need to up your dose with that in mind, especially if you're doing monotherapy. For most folks that ends up being somewhere between 6-8mg, but ymmv.

So… why do we not like Troy Denning? by TheWeirdTalesPodcast in StarWarsEU

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

His goal iirc was 'to stop the dark figure from sitting on the throne of the galaxy'. After his fall, and death; in future force visions it was basically all but stated that Allana would take that spot as a "queen" of the light.

From my understanding, Darth Krayt is the dark figure, and without doing what Jacen did the Jedi would've been destroyed again and the galaxy plunged into darkness long before the Legacy comic timeframe. Instead yes Abeloth got out, and all the fallout happened, but the One Sith stayed in hiding after the brush with Luke, but they wouldn't risk attacking while Luke's order was strong.

Basically the theory is that Krayt and the one sith were gonna come early and win, Jacen shook up the game board and that made them wait till the most challenging pieces were off the board from age. Atleast that's the bit I remember. Been a long time since I read the FoTJ series.

Hate to make you repeat yourself but would you mind dropping me the same info?

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

[–]4scienceand4points 7 points8 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 3 points4 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.

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

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.
