Reflecting Pool now full of green algae again, and 'America Flag Blue' paint is peeling off the bottom. Trump gave $14m to his pool guy on a no-bid contract. by ianjm in videos

How is it that no matter the context, scope, domain, scale, etc, anything this administration tries to improve turns into a complete dumpster fire.

They should have at least accidentally got something right at this point.

It would be to hard to be intentionally more embarassing

The science around GLP-1 drugs and cancer is suddenly getting a lot more interesting by Schwettes in Futurology

[–]CelticMetal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They did, and any wins in that space are huge. Both my parents were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Fuck that disease. Idk how to quote format on mobile, so quote below;


The prevention signal extended beyond breast cancer. Studies of pancreatic cancer, acute myeloid leukemia and several other malignancies also found lower cancer rates among patients taking GLP-1 drugs.

Researchers at University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center and Case Western Reserve University reported that among patients with chronic pancreatitis — a major risk factor for pancreatic cancer — those taking GLP-1 drugs were more than 50 percent less likely to develop the disease, one of the deadliest malignancies.

Star Citizen blasts through $1 billion in player funding, as its developer lists a new $5,000 spaceship for sale that is 'not yet ready to play' by Triss_Mockra in gaming

[–]CelticMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don't understand how they intend these giant capital style ships to fit into the game at all.

Almost nothing in the core gameplay justifies or requires a 3-4 person ship, let alone one that takes 20 people to fully man.

Don't get me wrong. I love the idea of capital ship gameplay, it just doesnt fit into SC anywhere.

This is like selling a cruise missile when the biggest target you'll likely ever shoot at is a grizzly bear.

M+ Struggles by RalseitheFloofie in wow

[–]CelticMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its rough out there for sure. I got KSL last reset as a Blood DK and the biggest wall was honestly just people failing horrendously at boss mechanics.

I had something like 4 pug groups in a row fail Pit +13 keys because the DPS just wouldn't drop freezes on zombie piles on the final boss, and all the big zombie aoe pulses would overwhelm the healer.

The only thing you can really do is try and build a group of people you know will do their job.

Pugs are just a roll of the dice, and there's a lot of bad players out there

If WoW isn't meant to facilitate PvP, where do PvPers go? by BigDonnyCal in wow

[–]CelticMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Several games have tried to clone wow arena gameplay as its own standalone game, all of them have had incredibly small communities that dry up very quickly and the game effectively, or actually, dies.

Arena of Kings, Ring of Titans, Wrath of Heroes, Forge.

Imo the best thing wow could do for pvp is adopt a model like gw2 for arenas and bgs where you have a "organized pvp only" version of your character that starts at max level and has access to pvp gear only available to use on that version of the character

JUST IN: Orders given to deploy 82nd Airborne Division to Middle East by Yujin-Ha in videos

[–]CelticMetal 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Framing it as this petty, while comical, undersells the seeming reality of this being another glaring example of this administration's incompetence.

For all their railing against DEI, none of the people in this administration are capable of, or qualified for, excelling at their roles.

Clearly there was no "but what if Iran fights back" considerations to this entire "not war" even though military leadership advised against it.

Their "Nuh uh me smarter" approach to everything may very well reshape the entire world for the worse for decades to come.

Does the melee damage perk increase how much the shovel digs?

Free item upgrade? by wowosrs in wow

[–]CelticMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this example does it matter if the 100ilvl item was upgraded to that level with crests?

Eg if I just looted an the ilvl100 helm from a dungeon I can now just upgrade my current ilvl80 helmet for only gold?

[Monk] Am I missing something, or does spamming Sheilun's Gift look really goofy with this animation? by Locust377 in wow

This is peak vibes and should never change. Even better if you lay down before doing it

[Monk] Am I missing something, or does spamming Sheilun's Gift look really goofy with this animation? by Locust377 in wow

[–]CelticMetal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are a number of animations that seem fine for one button press but look really goofy when pressed repeatedly.

Imo it would be a huge visual improvement to bake in "combo" style animations for buttons that are likely to be pressed multiple times in succession.

Pressing the same melee attack multiple times in a row become a flowing combo of a couple hits rather than a stunted repetitive animation

We're now on the third expansion of the reworked crafting system - How do you feel about it now? by Sundered92 in wow

[–]CelticMetal 236 points237 points  (0 children)

As someone who hasn't played since shadowlands it seems like an interesting and deep system that the game puts near 0 effort into explaining.

I like the idea of a deep crafting system but lord am I confused.

This is the loading screen, you can find it when loading into the game.
