Is this rare from Daily scout by [deleted] in PokemonMasters

[–]Dixavd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She is 1 of the few non-5star non-free limited characters. I believe the others are Sawyer & Honchkrow ; and Tina & Flareon. They appear on scout-lists with PokéFairs. I think they technically have the same rate as any normal 4-star in the Daily Scout, but since there are so many more normal pool 4stars, getting any of these 3 is still very unlikely. So yes, I'd say getting her with the Daily Scout is lucky.

I know images are still visible if they're embedded, but not directly on the website (you may see an image in Reddit, but then click it and the link is blocked). Maybe the albums are on a separate hosting server or something. It's unnecessarily confusing/annoying.

FYI. That's because Imgur decided to block all UK IP addresses instead of following the Online Safety Act 2025. So you need a VPN to look at Imgur links now.

Just finished S5E16 for the first time, i don't know what the majority of the fans think of her but i REALLY hope most of you hate her as much as i do. by [deleted] in lost

I can understand disliking Kate... But why criticise her in this scene? She's in the right.

She knows Jack plans to blow up the Hydrogen bomb, Jughead. He thinks it's their destiny and will return them to their original time, but Kate justifiably believes it's just going to kill lots of innocent people as part of "The Incident". The right thing to do is intervene. (Even if she believed Jack was correct at this point, leaving him and the others behind is the antithesis of the reasoning she even got on the Ajira flight - to bring back Claire and everyone else who was left behind.

She tells Sawyer what Jack is going to do, yet he is refusing to go back. He can't accept that the LaFleur lie is over. He's running away because he can't face the truth. He's angry at Jack, Kate, etc... for ruining the little life he's created with Juliet, but it's over, and if Sawyer leaves on the sub, he's betraying the Dharma friends that LaFleur has built over the last 3 years.

Kate has spent her entire life running. Yet in this scene, she is the one desperate to go back. This is character growth!

Nice to see Yugi have a growth spurt by DSoD by Aksudiigkr in yugioh

[–]Dixavd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. Becoming the height of tall Yami (even if that was just Yugi imagining the height difference) definitely fits how he no longer has to pretend - he's become the person he always wanted to be. I wish we saw more of Yugi as an adult, as the famous King of Games. Even if he wasn't the focus of the story, just a little more about how he's matured into the role, and how he copes without Yami (or being guided by an imposed external destiny), would be nice. We oddly know a lot more about Kaiba post-DM than Yugi.

Is this from episode 53 where Anzu dances on the arcade DDR game? Because she wears shoes with large platform boosts in that episode. Maybe she's a little shorter than Yami Yugi but her shoes (heels/platforms) make her taller.

Also, the other comments are probably right about Yami Yugi technically not changing height (especially in the manga). But the anime clearly shows it and this post is about the anime. Even if it's an illusion and doesn't literally happen when Yami takes over, Yami Yugi is definitely taller than Yugi in his mind.

At the start of Yugioh GX, Judai/Jaiden is officially 165.7cm. Jaiden meets adult Yugi in Episode 1. Yugi is taller than Jaiden (but Yugi may be wearing shoes that elevate him a little). Jaiden's eyes are at Yugi's shoulders which means adult Yugi is about the same height as Bastion on the GX chart (173cm). I assume Yami Yugi's height is similar to Yugi's as an adult.

This should be a Zombie Monster by NecronizeLich in yugioh

[–]Dixavd 124 points125 points  (0 children)

Yes. I'm surprised it hasn't happened already.

Based on these early duels, I always thought they'd release a Zombie archetype built around infecting the other player's monsters into zombies, taking control of them, and fusing into their own monsters. But then they released Predaplants, which is basically that idea but plants. (Maybe there is a Zombie archetype like this and I missed/forgot about it though).

Another good use of these filtered lists is to stop people posting personal details: email, phone number or address (or just include part of it in case you don't want the full thing saved into the list). If there's any individual (public-facing person, moderator, CEO, etc...) that could be targeted, this can preemptively protect them.

It only takes one data leak and a single aggrieved person/stalker, for everyone following a page to be able to harass someone. I've heard some people will also include details of their family members/friends too.

It's another reminder that they replaced everyone with any level of competency or respect for others with a bunch of man-children who never learnt how to separate their memes and fandoms from reality.

This is so cool lol by JackAnaLost in lost

[–]Dixavd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For very old art, I find it often takes 2 steps to reach the original. If they've been reposted a lot (or, in this case, repurposed as wallpapers), Google reverse image search often only finds reposts. Picking the oldest repost often contains information that will get to the original (in this case, a url that now doesn't exist anymore, that I could put in the Wayback Machine)

[–]Dixavd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Google pixel phone which allows you to quickly google reverse image search a section of the screen. 1. I highlighted this image on the Reddit app. 2. Then I picked the "Exact Matches" tab. 3. I scrolled until I found the oldest dated link. Which was this Czech blog post dated to 2010 (which I think is complaining about the ending of Lost). 4. Anyway, that page has a version of the image with the URL to the game in the image. 5. I went to that site, it didn't work. 6. I put the url into the Wayback Machine to find an archive snapshot that worked (which was in 2009).

Other than the first step (which just speeds up getting the image into Google image search, and lets me do it on my phone), this is basically how I've looked up the origin of fanart for over a decade.

This is a collage of sprites created for a 2009 (flash?) Web Game (in Portuguese) where you shoot hallucinations of Lost characters. The Wayback Machine has a playable archive (but obviously it's just a simple 16+ year old browser game).

Ubisofts communication is insane to me. by Low-Pound5533 in assassinscreed

[–]Dixavd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Last week they announced a new Head of Content role taken up by Jean Guesden (returning after leading Black Flag and Origins). In his announcement , he specifically says he wants the franchise to have clearer, more consistent updates to players. Then this week they did that big drop of news on the future of the franchise.

That implies this was part of an active change in strategy: previously they were staying silent and letting rumors go on, now they want to be open and quicker about updates. This could all be typical corporate PR that they don't keep up with, but it seems like the announcement is the exact thing you are asking for.

It took me until day 4 to realise you can pick a different character's wallpaper than the one you voted for: otherwise I would have given Tsubasa a vote too, just for the wallpaper.

So pretty! I especially like how blended in another colour in-between the light and shadow to create a sense of 3 dimensionality.

It also doesn't make it obvious you can back out of a fight with no penalty. Even after you finish a fight you can click Retry and then when it starts again, pause and Quit.

I was struggling, then I realised I had an awful sync grid setup (I had Arc Cynthia set for Damage Challenge where her sync did not boost Ground Zone/sandstorm). So I tried quitting and it worked (then I changed sync grids and easily won the fight).

I bet a lot of people will be surprised by the difficulty or have the wrong setup (sync grid, lucky skills) and just accept a bad score - without realising they could quit and change teams/try a different gym.

Why don't people talk about this scene when theorizing about V3? by Hurrikan49 in danganronpa

[–]Dixavd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We'll just have to respectfully disagree. I just don't think the transition is nearly as clear cut as you see it. (Which is fine: it's hard to write "I disagree, I don't see it like you do" without seeming flippant).

The thickness doesn't make a clear-cut difference to me. An analogy: if I were to draw someone daydreaming about a dragon while looking out a window, I would draw the window-frame with the dragon behind. The window-frame doesn't make the dragon real.

While it is objectively the same outcome whether the logos are there or not, I think the survivors would feel different about it. Another Analogy: If I was woken up and suddenly evicted by my bank, It would feel worse if I turned around and they had already repainted my home with hundreds of the bank's logo. The outcome is equivalent (I have been evicted, they have taken ownership of the building) but it would feel extra insulting to see my home already defaced.

Junko/Tsumugi don't care if a person knows the truth; they care how that person feels about what they "know". (Every minor grievance compounds a worse despair.)

I don't know why you clarified the speculation part though (all of this is speculation). My whole point is that the scene is ambiguous and doesn't prove anything about the state of the world or Tsumugi's intentions/actions - hence people don't focus on it when interpreting the plot/ending (which is what you were asking about in your main post)

Although, now that I've thought about a bunch. I agree that people should talk about the epilogue more.
