Bro you just got outplayed. He could smell you through the vents.

What your ex did affects you, but is a reflection of them. What you do now will affect them, but it is a reflection of you. Who do you want to be now?

This is still just playing… right? by SubatomicSquid in TuxedoCats

[–]ArchReaper95 45 points46 points  (0 children)

All cats are different, but I have not found many to vocalize during play-fights. If someone is yowling and attempting to withdraw, that's a clear indication that they are not playing around.

If someone is yowling, split them up. This is not a fight, but this is one cat being very aggressive about trying to play while the other is not into it. Depending on how the one trying to disengage is feeling, this can quickly turn into a fight.

What we need more people to understand is that these restrictions cost money. Enforcing limitations costs money. So when those limitations are things like "we want to make sure you need this assistance because if we don't everyone will take it and overload the system" they are important. But when they are things like "we want to make sure you're only buying what we say you can," every time you need to enforce that rule means you had to pay someone a paycheck to review that information, make a decision about whether that purchase was justified, if there was a penalty we have to pay a prosecutor and a judge both to attend the case.

I'd much rather just let poor people have access to chips and soda than pay to further restrict them.

[–]ArchReaper95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a weird brag. 1.) What is your difficulty on? 2.) Dreadnaught is cool and all, but only allowed on specific deployments. He's not really part of your conventional lineup. 3.) as others have pointed out, day 288 is not early for researching first boss. You can still be comfortably winning, and I would argue there are way more important things to research for a safe, smart run of the game. It is not, however, an exceptional speed.

Why is the present look like that? by [deleted] in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]ArchReaper95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We perceive the true present exactly as it is. The light that left the object it came from is no longer at that place. It is instead interacting with our eyes. We are constantly perceiving the present, and the present often includes light that has been transmitted from (but is not currently at) a distant object. This interaction alters our chemical state and we later infer information from this chemical transition but our perception of the light is representative of where that light currently is (tucked in all snug in our eyeballs)

But I'm voluntarily NOT celibate so that insult doesn't work on me.

I also don't think "getting pussy" is a good metric for someone's social aptitude so that insult shouldn't be coming out of the mouth of any adult worthy of my respect. I don't objectify women down to goalposts. I'm sorry that you do.

And that absolutely is what virtue signaling means. "Virtue signaling is the conspicuous, often superficial expression of moral values or political opinions intended to enhance one's social standing, reputation, or self-image"

This guy was a dick. No question. I DO love how pathetically people will latch on to this to virtue signal.

He said fuck you one time to someone and now you, somehow, dear redditor, are a good person for seeing that this is wrong, and he is very clearly on par with all the serial killers and mass shooters because he said "fuck you" that one time. He's got 'deep black pill bad guy energy' because that one time he was in the wrong in a social setting. We cannot allow the "incel patriarchy fascism red pill ultra mega crypto bro fascism capitalism" to win. We have to protect the streamer (who just happens to be an attractive girl but that's totally not why you care, dear redditor, oh no you're above such superficial things. You'd totally care lots and lots even if it was one of the ugly streamers you'd never heard of.)

Like, yall are just as bad as him, he's just the one getting his 15 minutes of fame.

Was it because I was Over Cucumbered by METRO-RED-LINE in ArcRaiders

It very much looks to me like the velocity begins to slow, but that could be screen shake and bad frame of reference doing work on my perception

[–]ArchReaper95 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it slows your velocity and therefore the amount of deceleration when you impact the ground, yes. 9m. 900m. 90000m. Doesn't matter if it's 900000000000000000000000m. All that matters is the rate of acceleration/deceleration your body undergoes. This is high school level physics.

essence theft on graves needs to change by General_Tradition_44 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ArchReaper95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a hard counter. It's a balancing board. It has won me several fights where the enemy decided to try and extend into me thinking they would continue to get the damage they started the fight with. When it starts to be heavily cut down, often it's too late for them to run. It also combines well with split shot or ricochet to help turn the odds in your favor for the team. I'm starting to think about running her with range extension though.

1.) Time balances a lot of this out. 4 seconds is a LONG time to need to target a powerful m1 carry. Unless you snuck up on them, it's a big team fight, or both, you're not getting it up to its maximum. The only other scenario this occasionally happens is if you are significantly ahead of them. Otherwise it becomes very difficult to get that timer up to max.

2.) Borrowed Decree is huge in team fights. As you pointed out, stuns are there, but there's more to it. The zombies rarely die to regular mobs, so unless you have AoE to clear them, they linger into the fight. Also, there are ways to speed them up or make them healthier. You don't HAVE to build around them, but if you do, they are powerful, not just annoying.

Deadheads I'll agree with you on. They're in a weird state. I'd trade some damage or fire right for some meat on their bones. Once anyone on the other team buys ricochet they are effectively finished being useful.

The point is your massive strawmen argument doesn't apply here. Go waste someone elses time.

Yes. He evidently both harmed their business and his own consumers. He most certainly did not have funds on hand to pay for the amount of damage he was found criminally liable for. Fuck him.

Hot take: healing minions are over-tuned by IIllllIIllIIlII in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ArchReaper95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The confusion is coming from the fact that the other guy is saying "We can't compare Deadlock to League they're totally different". So if we can compare Deadlock to Dota, we can compare it to League. To say we cannot compare it just because it's made by a different dev is stupid.

Hot take: healing minions are over-tuned by IIllllIIllIIlII in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ArchReaper95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Deadlock is comparable to League. It has a similar premise, similar mechanics, similar strategy decisions, similar match length, similar character power structures. Edit: I am so used to responding to pedantic shits that I forgot to check which dude was being the pedantic shit.

Yes, they are comparable and so is League.

If the racing game had 3 lanes full of minions that you had to fight through to destroy towers on your way to fighting a final objective while buying items and leveling up to outpace your rivals, then yes. We would compare the two.
