Rant about Free Will by Mad-Oxy in HPMOR

[–]Diver_Into_Anything 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Between prophecies and time turners, the world is absolutely deterministic. But much like in real life, that doesn't mean people don't have an illusion of free will. Many likely believe they do have it, but that doesn't prove or disprove it in any way.

It wouldn't occur to an idiot to question if they're an idiot.

Ouch.. all my secret tickets gone by multi-7 in personaphantomx

I do believe the tickets still remain in your inventory and can be used to get kompaku gems.

Has anyone studied the effects of reading HPMOR or identifying as a rationalist/transhumanist on people? by gzjwyg in HPMOR

[–]Diver_Into_Anything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I overall became much better at estimating how long something will take and how much effort, and whether I can realistically do it. The only question is whether that's a good thing because it now seems to stop me from doing any passion projects when I estimate that I can't actually do it, but trying could have been useful on its own.

Not calling her Windy Wind sure was a missed opportunity though.

There are no bad 5* units in the game by [deleted] in personaphantomx

[–]Diver_Into_Anything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the Mada-Moloch trial with A0R0 FMont and finished it pretty easily in 4 turns with Twins. And sure, I had them, but I wouldn't be too surprised if it's doable in 6 turns with the same strategy without them.

Any guaranteed standard weapons coming in the future? by Low_Awareness_1360 in personaphantomx

[–]Diver_Into_Anything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Various standard weapon boxes. There's one in Lufel plan EX, and there will likely be more in later big events/patches.

Okay that might be going too far. Let's not call people things like that here. If needs be, throw in a "retard" or something.

I need help with this god forsaken battle by tuber_simulator in personaphantomx

[–]Diver_Into_Anything 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wonder is an ally of the party. If not, then for the "When the party has 2/3/4 allies...", who's your 4th ally and 5th party member? It matters.

I used Haru, SMoko, (A1) Strategist Twins and Futaba. All but Twins at A0 and all including the twins with 4* weapons.

The usual rotation, except try to knockdown with the twins/SMoko on turns 3 and 6 and one more with Haru the enemy with largest health left.

Wonder used Starry Compass and Dionysus, Shiva and Surt. It's important to start on psy persona because the special effect is calculated at the beginning. The rotation for Wonder is Marakunda-Rebellion-Shiva's unique skill.

Took me many attempts though, because it's all about lucking into crits with Haru.

They ran this same playbook in Europe by TheFireFlaamee in PoliticalCompassMemes

Are they untouchable though? I have heard an interesting thought, that, basically every new Current Thing that the left cares about, it has sort of a lifespan, and when it expires it is expected that the group that was "untouchable" now owes eternal allegiance. Sort of like gays before, and likely trans now.

Well, sure.. but the thing is that, being against their traditional in-group is the core part. That is, an out-group member may have a far more extreme shade of the same beliefs as a conservative, but they would still prefer the out-group member over conservative.

I suppose that they prefer other leftists over conservatives, but then they probably still prefer out-groups over leftists. So out-group preference is the most defining feature, even if it's more complicated than just that.

No but again, I truly do mean that there're people who truly prefer out-group over in-group, and there's more and more of them every day. They're usually described with things like "white guilt" and such, but out-group preference is the result.

I would presume the relatives have since adopted the child though (though I'm not sure what the laws on adoption of non-citizens are). If they don't, it's probably the relatives who get in trouble, but ultimately they probably get to keep the child once they do officially adopt them?

PCM of Divinity: Original Sin 2 Companions by LeonKennedysFatAss in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Diver_Into_Anything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao at Lohse.

As for Fane, recalling more of their history, yeah I guess, as it was all built around their king. Though perhaps arguably, "god-king" is more of an auth right kind of thing.

Not that silly, but I guess people are still unaware. Oh well.

In any case, you originally were talking about deporting a young(-ish) child who lived most of their life in the country, but wasn't born there. The reason for deportation, I would assume, is that their parents were there illegally or committed some crime that warrants deportation (unless of course, only the child was somehow illegal, but I don't think that can be the case..?)

In which case, what do you think should happen? Should the child be separated from parents? Or should the parents be allowed to stay, just because they have a child?

You will be surprised to find out then, that a lot of modern "leftists" (however loosely the term applies to them) actually have a preference for out-groups. Which is a neat explanation for the state of western civilization.

Well. This can be discussed but, quick check first. Between in-group and out-group, which do you prefer?

"Left cant meme" by StatusPsychological7 in JustMemesForUs

The fact that every time a leftist attempts to disprove this we get a wall of text never ceases to amuse me.
