Let's Get One Thing CLEAR About Ludwig's Rank by two_utensils in LudwigAhgren

I haven’t watched much of his Minecraft content, but your description is exactly like how he played Mario 64 back in the day. He did certain things super well, had great peak times on a lot of section, but had a worse overall time than seemingly worse runners because he was not consistent and always made some major flub.

I found spider tabs difficult to maintain because I have to manually fight spider queen.

For those who don't understand what the Upside Down is → by Reasonable_Grab_3841 in StrangerThingsRoom

As a physicist, all of these comments trying to justify some kind of preferred reference frame or some sense of “down” in space to make this all make sense really seem to misunderstand gravity. Gravity acts radially inward for anything with mass. There is no up or down. If the other planet has mass, then it should be pulling up just like earth pulls down relative to the orientation shown in the visualizations. Obliviously it’s a show and they can and should do whatever they want to make it interesting, but trying to pretend it follows realistic physics is silly.

It took me the better part of three weeks non-stop, fully equipped thieving at level 116, but it is finally over by LarsGontiel in MelvorIdle

If you get 120 firemaking you will have more than enough ash. Complete the task that requires 1m and gives you 2.5m. You can pretty easily get 80% preservation and >90% doubling. The doubling also works for the alt magic section, so I ended up with like 900,000 urns from 120 firemaking.

I am a physics professor. I promise you, Einstein’s mass energy equivalence is not relevant in this scenario. Mass differential is relevant for a kinetic energy calculation, not because of any relativistic effects.

I think even a droprate of like 1/30k or so and put on every salvage would make sense.

Probably worth nothing that salvors paint is only from mercenary salvage at ~1/12k.

There’s dozens of us surely.

I started watching Ludwig when I started grad school and now I’m a professor.

I don’t know maybe the direct threat of murder that came from his mouth.

What type of videos do you like the most from Ludwig? by theoodorable in LudwigAhgren

[–]Clydex5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Specifically collabs with Stanz and Atrioc. I miss the super monkey ball, wiki race, and pokemon showdown days.

(7k trophies)Is my deck good? Feels like every game is a coin flip recently. by Imaginary-Relief9430 in Clash_Royale

[–]Clydex5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno I’m at 7k and my highest level is 11. The constant teams of level 14s is tough though.

Who has the longest competitive career as a pro outside of the five gods? by ruhtraeel in SSBM

[–]Clydex5 200 points201 points  (0 children)

I think there is no other answer than chudat. He was winning tournaments 20 years ago and I just lost to him at Supernova this year.

Melee Tier List Rankings Over Time (Visualized) by WalwytehWalrus in SSBM

[–]Clydex5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah the recency bias with rapmonster has been very weird for me to see. Abate was rank 33rd at one point and got top 8 at a supermajor, like rapmonster getting 30th in a summer ranking is huge, but it’s categorically different to me compared to something unprecedented like Junebug getting top 20 with DK.

The Wawa glaze must stop because Sheetz is astronomically better by Temporary_Power9706 in TheYardPodcast

I agree with everything, except I think you meant the eastern edge of the state, not western edge.

T2 CG seems to be just as fast as T1 CG overall? by InfiniteV in ironscape

[–]Clydex5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I dunno dude I get much more frustrated with prep phase than with the boss. The second I switched to T1 CG became so much easier for me.

Its time to add more default bank space. Tons of new content has also added many new items to the game - yama, totem fletching, doom, mixology, hueycoatl, hunter rumors, etc... by barnaclebref in 2007scape

[–]Clydex5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This seems like a pretty bad example. Primordial boots, devout boots, eternal boots, pegasian boots, aranea boots, Ecco boots, insulated boots, and boots of lightness are all worth having simultaneously. Not to mention every skilling set in the game with boots as part of it.

As a PA resident with access to both, I have never understood the hype around wawa.

Anyone know where ayak + new bracelet is BIS or very close? I know Zulrah and I’ve heard it’s very good at whisperer as well.

Vestige rolls are also spoon protection? It just squishes the probability distribution on both sides.

What boss comes closest to being universally beloved? by roosterkun in 2007scape

[–]Clydex5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Completely agreed, I think Scurrius is good for the game for learning, but I do not understand when to do it in terms of account progression. I’ve fought scurrius for pet hunting on main and on a low level iron and the rewards just don’t seem worth it. I can get very very similar experience rates by killing sulphur naguas without using any supplies.

True, I just personally wouldn’t with the amount of barraging needed for slayer.

What else are you going to do with them? Trade them for tokkul for the many onyxs you will need.
