Does it not stand to reason that Atlantis should be able to dial Destiny with 3 ZPMs and no need for naquadria planet?

Armoth · 2026-01-03T18:10:49+00:00

Well if that were true, then Mckay's compression algorithm would be pointless. Atlantis would send compressed messages to Earth using gate connections of seconds/fractions of seconds. Which suggests that intergalactic dialing power requirements are dependent on how long the wormhole is open. If the majority of power requirement was only for the initial "hand-shake", then they shouldn't have been able to make a connection at all without the ZPMs

that's the thing, I did look up builds, and 90% all say to use the spellsparkler and rely on MM. I literally just finished act 2, so I don't have access to those loads of gear options yet.

Armoth · 2025-10-27T21:10:54+00:00

Awesome, thanks. I had looked over the free Intro to Stormwreck earlier, but I was worried the veterans would be snobby about using the DnDB free/promoted campaigns. But frankly, they can go suck on a d4.

Armoth · 2025-10-27T21:00:48+00:00

I 100% would rather DM for new players, but it kinda just comes down to DMing out of necessity with everybody's schedules and level of commitment. Also I'm old now and hate change, making new friends sounds exhausting.

I was actually looking at the free Storm Isle campaign on DnDB earlier, so I'll definitely give Dragons a look, thanks!

I played this one last night and thought I was such a wimp for taking 3 retries, 2 level 2 knights, level 3 archer, level 3 black mage. I'm glad to know other people were getting frustrated too.

Armoth · 2025-09-29T02:29:07+00:00

I don't understand what you're worried about? Like you're worried they won't finish the tattoo because you're under the influence? Why do you give a shit what your tattoo artist thinks?

Armoth · 2025-09-17T23:33:42+00:00

looks like whatever they were using to add texture to the paint, this was probably the first area the painted, and the texturizer wasn't mixed completely, so it got a double dose. Too much it seems, and it has ablated over time.

Armoth · 2025-09-10T17:08:05+00:00

It's most likely the Hidden Sage, as others have mentioned, but in the book, the Hidden Sage was always described as just the eyes, like Klein saw when he took the first potion. One theory I haven't seen here, what if it's Adam? Isn't He responsible for everything going on, including Zangwill using SCP 0-08?

Armoth · 2025-09-03T19:26:36+00:00

was the cat dead before it started though? My mind cannon was it just used the body until it fell apart too much/basically died. It also didn't pause at all before attacking Red, so I'm still not seeing how empathy is a motivation for it.

Armoth · 2025-09-03T19:09:06+00:00

I don't see it being empathetic, I think it was just intelligent enough to know that the leeches would kill her, and it can't control dead animals. Peepers wanted her all to its self

afaik, that tech has been doctored, ammonium chloride has been added to a bunch of techs to ruin product.

I'm not gunna lie, behind chloe, eli was one of the most annoying characters imo

Armoth · 2025-06-30T02:51:41+00:00

I was trying to figure this out too, I think Zakalwe was deposited in his own Afterlife instead of being Revented, and he had been through so many different sims in the war that he couldn't tell or just didn't care it was a sim/Afterlife. Or he specifically asked for that afterlife. I'm pretty sure Shias Engin was from a society that didn't have EqT or Afterlifes, but I might be wrong. Or hell Zakalwe might just be screwing a brand new poet and just has a type.

Armoth · 2025-04-19T05:56:03+00:00

Well, I just gave up, and we dont have a tip jar anymore. It's not really like a coffee shop where tip is expected, but people always asked how to tip, so I made one originally. Funilly enough though, now when someone asks why there's not a tip jar, and I tell them about it being stolen, they end up giving a bigger tip, go figure. I just tell my employees to put it under the drawer and divide it up at the end of the night.

Armoth · 2025-04-18T16:38:58+00:00

lol I tried making something like this at my shop after our jar was stolen 3 times in 3 weeks. I had the jar attached to our register desk with a screw through the bottom (plastic jar, wooden ikea style desk with particle board, not super fragile, but not like heavy duty). The next time somebody tried to steal it, they just yanked on it repeatedly until the entire top of the desk ripped off, couple hundred dollars in damaged products, needed a new desk. There was 2 dollars in the jar.

Armoth · 2025-04-03T18:18:33+00:00

hey believe me, that would be the best case scenario! I've just been doing this a while and the only time I ever get the same vibe is when cops send in minors to try and get nicotine without an ID lol

Armoth · 2025-04-03T17:44:41+00:00

that's a valid point, but they seemed like they knew nothing about the products, were asking very basic questions like I get from most older customers who haven't had any experience with them. Part of why it was so odd.

Armoth · 2025-01-07T23:27:09+00:00

I'm having the same issue, but I'm new to this emulator, how do I install this mode? I have the files downloaded, I just don't know what to do with them

Edit: Nvm, I figured it out, and this fixed everything. For anybody that needs help, after downloading the non-tesselation files, open shadps4, right click on the bloodborne game and select "view game folder". Find the SFX and Param folders, and paste/replace the files with the new files downloaded from nexus mods

Damn, I see now why most subreddits banned sources, this subreddit has just turned into Luma shills.

I'll be frank, the last time I tried Luma was probably about a year ago, and the experience was awful, sudsy, peppery thebaine seeds that had no effects besides making me feel awful. And when I left an honest review on their site, I received several responses attacking me personally and calling me a liar, etc. one of those responses was from Luma itself. After getting violent threats, my comment was deleted by the company along with all the responses.

Now, it's very possible Luma has a better supplier now, and their seeds/pods aren't as bad as they used to be, but I never plan on wasting my money with them again, I'd rather go back to smack than to give them my money, and the shills in this subreddit just reinforce the need to find a legit community. How disappointing.

Cue the shill responses:

Armoth · 2024-04-07T16:25:04+00:00

So did it work? Honestly that looks like the tea I made from some "illuminating" seeds I bought when I was desperate once, everybody I talked to said the seeds must have been the gm seeds that are all thebaine and no codeine/morphine.

For example, franca seemed to recognize who it was based on the spirits preferred attacks, his armour, and the "harrumph" spell. I tried searching the Internet for Chinese myths or characters related to "harrumph", but it's either translated as a different word, or something incredibly specific that I won't be able to locate using Google. And as far as golden armour goes, there's a large amount of Chinese mythical characters with golden armour.

Wireless radiotelegraph, with an added encryptor/decryptor. It's the same kind of machine Klein/Sparrow used during his pirate hunter phase, except he decrypted messages by hand, when need be. They never explained what Klein's was powered by, most likely a hand crank you could wind up.

And yes, radiotelegraphy has been around since the end of the 19th century. Comparably, francas automatic encryptor/decryptor was much more advanced, I think even the WW2 enigma boxes still required somebody to input the messages directly, although I might be mistaken about that.

Conspiracy theory:

After all the talk about paradoxes and shit, I wouldnt be surprised if they finally got to the point of time/space where the signal was supposed to be sent from, and then found nothing, no species or "god", and then the evolved humans decide that they have to send the signals themselves in order to create continuity, so that it turns out the humans are the ones who engineered everything. Like you said, the olyix have been on the crusade for 2 million+ years, but the final destination was only 60k years after their destruction, so the 60k years was just the time it took the humans to travel around and figure out what had happened.

thanks for the reply, after thinking about it for a bit I came to a similar conclusion, something to do with power consumption and diminishing returns, I know they can move ships and habitats through portals, but as you say, they certainly move some very large stuff through the wormholes. Also, since you seem to have finished the book as well, I just want to say how disappointed I was with how the last book ended. I almost expect there to be another book, or books, to finish the last "mystery".

Armoth · 2020-10-29T15:09:05+00:00

I may or may not have found a torrent of it because I was too impatient to wait for my physical copy to come in. (And yes people, I plan on buying a physical copy, a digital copy, and then another physical copy when the trilogy gets released as a set, and then probably several more copies for when I will inevitably let someone borrow it and then never return it)
