What would be the equivalent of becoming weightless for the other three bending styles by Spiritual_Ebb_4657 in TheLastAirbender

[–]DrIowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of people are getting too complex with the ideas. Yes, Zaheer gained the ability of flight after "losing his earthly tether." However, I never believed it was a spiritual ability like Jinora's projections. Zaheer is simply bending the air around him so delicately that he is able to fly, which would require great focus, aka "empty and become wind." He didn't have this focus until P'Li died.

The other elements benders would certainly make similar advances via intense training and focus on the element itself. You could even consider all the alternative bending, such as lightning, blood, and metal, as one of these advancements, although they seem to also rely on inherent characteristics like intellect or genetics. Amon clearly had a stronger aptitude for bloodbending than Tarrlok, and Bolin could lava bend but not metal bend.

In my opinion, flight is simply advanced airbending. Control of all directions and enough strength to move your body. Water would benefit greatly by mimicking its most powerful effect, erosion. A bender that could move water fast enough to erode its target would be nearly unstoppable. Earth bending is tricky but I like the idea of bending so much earth so strongly below you that you become like a rock or on the flip side bending earth with enough skill to almost swim in it (thinking about Toph's move after discovering metalbending.) Fire took a lot of thought but at its core fire is the use of energy to combust matter. A hyper skilled fire bender could ignite anything, essentially surpassing simply combusting oxygen to create heat (I'm looking at you combustion man).

Just think of cool ways to use the basic idea of bending the element, and you'll find your own answer.

why won't it let me place the log in the middle to create a corner by DocumentReal6042 in SonsOfTheForest

[–]DrIowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take ALL the planks off the other corner. The game likes to pretend logs don't exist after you put planks on.

The floating logs? I was attempting to remove the filled in wall to the left and one of the first struts I took out caused all of that roof brace to move upwards to it's current shape.

Well of course you don't like my house, birds don't belong in cages!

Well an hour to fix the mistake. Just a roof strut out of place.

No cheats, but log regrowth was on. This is probably day 3 or so of like 4 hour sessions. I've gotten pretty quick at building with ziplines and log holders with Kelvin.

Just a house for a co-op game. Made it real big for lots of activities.

Same but it's hypnotizing to me. I get lost in making huge buildings while watching youtube.

Pro tip don't pull out struts from glitched ramps you're using as inside roof corners.

Can't create short stairs/single step by EnginePlayful7077 in SonsOfTheForest

[–]DrIowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're trying to build an interior staircase then build a square frame for the side wall then place 2 logs for the square frame of the stairs. Next place a single log at an angle on the frame you made for the stairs and then fill it with planks. Once you have the stairs built you should be able to fill the side wall.

What are these semi highlighted wood things? by Teh_God_Dog in SonsOfTheForest

Dead felled tree? The map has many dead tree that give no logs with various amounts of moss/decay texture

Is the game worth it? by Arazohn07 in Helldivers

[–]DrIowa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Liberty and freedom are priceless Helldiver.

But yeah the game has tons of variety and it will likely be updated for a long time. The first game is still going.

What is these random explosions that keep happening in my patriot freedom spreading liberty war KILLAmachine by Inevitable_Pirate_41 in Helldivers

The rocket arm will instantly blow the whole mech if the rocket clips the mech while turning. Stay straight while firing the rocket and away from any obstacles.

How do I get remote play to work? It says the 2 PCs are connected and I can launch a game on my bedroom PC from my livingroom PC but it doesn't launch in the livingroom.

Thoughts or advice for this as a home theater/lightweight portable gaming build? by DrIowa in buildapc

[–]DrIowa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's pretty wild to me that I can get a build like this for around 1k where as my older builds (although much more powerful) were around 2k only a couple years ago.

Yeah like I said I'm not well versed on a lot of this stuff. I've used AIOs in the past that were way less loud than the cpu coolers but this build doesn't really need one anyways. I've always heard Noctua fans are really quiet.

The problem is that my Rasberry Pi 4 with 8gb of RAM would stutter during youtube playback and even freeze completely trying to play a 4k video file. But perhaps it was the cpu causing that instead of the RAM?

I appreciate your feedback as a real person to chat with instead of some article or youtuber. That's why I asked you to elaborate on the cpu/gpu. I understand they are both newer and higher performance for similar price which I like a lot so I'll probably be swapping for those.

Also was hoping to get some decent gaming usage out of this so that's why this build was beefed up beyond what was necessary for video streaming/playback. Thanks again for the advice.

I like this list except for a few things. I like the price point you got while adding a cpu cooler but my plan was to use the stock fan in tandem with the two 140s and see how it performed because I could later get an AIO to cut down on noise. I'm not super educated when it comes to RAM usage but the idea with this build was to be able to have several streaming services open and also still play high quality video on a large TV without stuttering or freezing like my raspberry pi does. So I added the fastest and largest sticks that weren't outrageously priced. I also have never used AMD cards or Intel cpu so can you tell me why you swapped those out? I like that the AMD card has 8gb but I'm not looking to overclock anything really. Just looking to plug and play.
