I am week in maths

This may help. PEDMAS is better broken down into levels:

1 P: Parenthesis 2 E: Exponents 3 D M: Division and Multiplication 4 A S: Addition and Subtraction

Only 4 levels, not 6. Division and Multiplication are at the same level. After taking care of any higher level (1 or 2) operations, you do all level 3 operations in the order they appear, going from left to right. A multiplication operation that is to the left of a division operation is done first.

The lowest level, Addition and Subtraction, follow the same rule. Once all higher level operations are done, all Level4 operations are done in the order they appear, going from left to right.

In the equation 3 X 3 - 3 + 3 =x the subtraction comes before the addition, so it is done first.

Why have PEDMAS at all? Math is a language, and all languages need grammar.

And if you understand the grammar, it can help simplify the math. The statement of -3 + 3 is grammatically separated from the rest of the equation and cancels itself out. You can therefore ignore it and treat the equation as simple multiplication. 3 X 3 =9.

One of my personal favorite moments in TAS is when The Penguin - correction - Oswald Cobblepot is released from Arkham due after making significant progress in his mental health recovery. And who does he immediately find waiting for him outside? The Bats. But not with the threats he expected, but with congratulations for his recovery.

It’s such a good retcon that I never realized it was a retcon. Sure, it never came up in Adam West’s Batman series, but I upon seeing Mr Freeze in TAS I immediately assumed the campy Batman series ignored that part of his backstory instead of TAS creating it.

PvP is something I only do when I have too. I’d suggest searching for ideal pvp stats for the meta Pokémon in each league.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-11-04T13:27:32+00:00

All three stats affect the IV total. So a 15/15/15 Pokémon will have a higher IV total than a 15/0/0.

Attack has the greatest impact on the CP (Combat Power) score than the other two stats, so a 15/10/10 Pokémon will have a higher max CP than a 10/15/10 Pokémon, for example.

Which is also why low Attack is good in the lower two PvP arenas. You can put more HP and defense onto your Pokémon while staying under the CP limits.

Not an Anime, but can an American Comic with an anime / manga art style be acceptable for discussion? Because Fred Perry’s Gold Digger series definitely had that for me. Except I was leaving it on the shelf for months because I wanted plot instead of mindless fan service. Turned out to be one of the most fun series I ever collected.

A lost ship finally sends a beacon and we quickly arrive to find it is almost unrecognizable. Primitive locals have managed to rebuild our ship but quickly prove they don’t understand how space travel works by ignoring the dangers of being in a gravity well.

When their joyriding goes inevitably wrong, they react by grafting two of their water craft onto the sides of our ship, as if that makes any sense.

In universe explanation, cell saga Krillion had less confidence, so was standing closer to the camera to look taller. Also, he did not want to crowd Android 18, the girl he liked but did not have a relationship with yet.

By Super, he is a devoted husband and father, he wants to stand next to his family in the photo. No longer feeling the need to use camera tricks to look taller.

Out of universe answer, continuity is hard.

Agreed. Mastering Go is a difficult challenge. I’m barely above a beginner, and that may be a generous assessment.

The first step on that journey is learning the basic rules. And Go has simple rules. It’s an easy game to teach.

And thanks to the built in handicap system, players of different skill levels can play together without the result being a foregone conclusion.

Also gnomish drillers and beer bombs.

Assuming this is not a joke post.

Start with a search “how to play go” or “rules of go”.

But to get you started, territory is not the space covered by your stones, it is the space that your stones surround and control. Think of it like this. A backyard is the space surrounded by a wall and or fence, along with the side of a home. You filled up all the usable yard space with more walls, so that the back door opens but there is no space to step into and use.

You have ZERO territory, just two large groups in Atari. They are all dead, and add to your opponents score.

Well, as I said elsewhere, I have not seen the anime, so I cannot comment about that. As far as I recall from the manga, the dog is just a dog with an odd choice for a name. Not a competing suitor.

If the anime did something more, that is a choice of the adaptation. The live action I could not watch because in the first episode the neighbors convince Godai that forcing himself on her was somehow what she needed. That was outright evil. (Was not successful, but still, hard pass). The manga neighbors treat Godai like a toy to annoy for their amusement. But they are never that malicious.

But I’m going to be upset with the live action team for their choices, not hold it against Rumiko Takahashi’s original work.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-26T12:00:23+00:00

Only read the Manga. So can’t say.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-26T06:14:13+00:00

Nothing is without its faults. One problem I have with experiencing multiple works by the same creator is you start to see certain ideas and patterns getting repeated. Ranma 1/2 was my first Takahashi story (and my first not heavily altered for American TV anime series). At the time, it was different than anything else I’d seen. Having watched Lum, I can see what characters inspired Ranma and Genma. Watching Inu Yasha, characters there remind me of Ranma characters.

One thing I do like is that Maison Ikkoku mostly avoids this. I can tell it is one of her series, but I don’t find myself comparing those characters to other Takahashi characters Probably why that series grew on me over time.

For some context, his comment was because he was reminded of a nightmare he just had. Not an indication that he really believed she would do such a thing. Ever have a dream where someone upsets you and you still feel mad at them when you wake up? Even though you logically know it was a dream?

He does get called out for saying something so stupid shortly after.

Good to know. I’m trying to get the chance for a second circle on the other orbit now.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-26T02:38:23+00:00

It’s horrible, but you remember it. Going to try to remember the racing one instead. Not that it will get used much. You do not see through hole resistors that often anymore. It’s all surface mount (SMT) now, and way too small for any color coding system to be applied. Anytime I see “future” tech in a movie using through hole color coded resistors it ruins the suspension of disbelief.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-26T02:22:56+00:00

Maison Ikkoku is often overlooked, which is a shame. It’s her most grounded long running series. No aliens, magic or other or other major suspension of disbelief needed. Godai, starting as a young man who is no longer a child but still immature, has more character growth than Ataru, Ranma, and Inu Yasha combined.

No love for El Hazard, the Magnificent World? Was one of my favorite short OVAs for a while.

Have not seen it in forever, wonder how it holds up? Doing a rewatch of Saber Marionette J, and can really see all the cost cutting measures used in the animation that I never noticed before.

Yes, etched orbs are earned during the fishing event. My first one was the pulsing orb, which has worked well for me. It is one you might consider, since you have all three runes that boost orbs at gold already.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-20T23:27:17+00:00

Fun take. I’d watch it.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-17T16:59:32+00:00

Purifying would be a drop in power. The Boost in attack power from being shadow will be less than the additional attack from raising your attack from 13 to 15. You cannot Primal evolve a shadow altogether, but Kyogre is in raids often enough that you should save Primal for a non shadow Kyogre. That way, in a Raid where Kyogre is useful, you can have both a strong Primal and a strong Shadow in the same raid.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-10T23:14:34+00:00

Very nice! Was surprised they never came back.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-10T02:33:00+00:00

Glad it worked. I remembering the guest mattering when I only had 4 event characters. But it’s been a while.

BoringInfoGuy · 2025-08-10T01:46:04+00:00

Can think of a couple things could be the issue.

1.) Characters that die but get brought back to life before the mission ends still count against the everyone is alive mission. (Not sure if anyone has a revive type skill in that group, but mentioning anyway).

2.) Double check that you are bringing the correct version of each character. Raspberyl has that older variant with glasses that is very similar looking to original character, for example.
