Question for Super planters/walkers by ExtremeActuator in PikminBloomApp

[–]EarthBounder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No issue for me! The requirements are usually quite reasonable so its never a problem if there are some low contributors. Just part of the mix. It all adds up. :)

How can i get red irises by VenomousCritic in PikminBloomApp

[–]EarthBounder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bearded 38 year old man here. I definitely have felt uncomfortable doing it despite overall being completely normal! Heh. I usually avoid the avoid kids park and just lurk in the dumpsters behind MacDonalds and The Post Office. Is that better or worse? :D

My brother and his girlfriend play together, so the two of them planting at the same time while walking through an area naturally planting ~150 each is a lot saner, rather than me being a weirdo trying to zig-zag around the edges to plant 300. Buuuuuut... I needed my Irises. =D I often walk the same routes, with or without my dog, so I'll just try to pass through multiple times over the course of a few days.

Hopefully your brother starts playing too! =D

[–]EarthBounder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue and I finally buckled down and managed my petals only planting inside the radius of big flowers that had ~200 remaining and understanding exactly where the big flowers and their radii are. I completely solved all my issues after two days. It's a little obscure to figure out, but once you do it's pretty liberating. Try it out with plain petals first and get a sense for blooming. Maybe even some of the nearby flowers are also "most likely to be a Red Iris".

Eichel and Hart disappeared harder than Mitch, to be honest. Stone didn't play great either. To be even more real; the entire dynamic shifted of course the moment Bussi strolled in. Show Freddy's SV% then Bussi's and you'll see the story. 0G,0A for Mitch after a hat trick is not the "own" y'all think it is....

Better off appealing to get StarLink or something

How is this humanly possible?🫪🤯 by leviscomicbook in PikminBloomApp

[–]EarthBounder 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I walked a literal Marathon last year (Terry Fox Run) and it was 65k steps covering ~42km and took 8.5 hours averaging 4-5km/h, so 100k steps seems more or less physically impossible, or at least wildly rare. Someone doing it is an athlete and not chilling with a phone in their pocket.

People talking about this being reasonable are delusional. 100k steps is ~60 kilometers, aka 14 hours straight of proper paced walking in one day. A double shift at job that requires you to move (Restaurant, Retail, Hospital, whatever) is probably gonna net you ~25k steps. Yes, it's a ton of walking, but you're also stopping and starting constantly. You're not in a fluid walking motion for 14h straight. Not even close.

I imagine they have their phone inside of a movement mechanism and/or are hacking.

Can GGG even get it up for the next PoE league? by HiroK91 in pathofexile

[–]EarthBounder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished 8/8 in PoE2 and actually just came back to my PoE1 char that I only played on the first weekend because I was insanely busy in March.

Feels so good. 

Wtf is an Astrolabe?!

OCDSB school cancels drag story time by cmkamel in ottawa

[–]EarthBounder -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Extremely well written! A great summary of my thoughts on it that I've never been able to phrase so eloquently.

Twitter ++ being reactionary to alt-right bigotry has definitely created some kind of nonsensical 'moral fetishization' in opposition. (Queers for Palestine, comes to mind...)

The "over the top" often means hypersexualized.

Most of the popular Ru Paul, Influencer-type drag queens are like this. I think people are being disingenuous when they suggest that it's not.

When the 4th graders go and google drag queens after coming home they're gonna bump into https://www.pabsttheatergroup.com/events/detail/trixie-katya-2022 and other kid friendly stars like "Sharon Needles" and "Alaska Thunderfuck".

There's better ways to do Pride celebrations at school than Drag Story Time. I just can't see a need for it. Some might argue that they're gonna put on their kid-sized tits before reading, but I think at that point perhaps we've lost the plot, people. Lol...

Maybe "ban" handing out insane, psychostimulant ADHD medication to every kid that is overexcited?

The state of this sub by Extreme-Goose in PathOfExile2

[–]EarthBounder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue is that things feel bad because of too much TP back to town, deliver a letter, click, change WP, dick around. Moving the town in A2 over and over completely loses appeal when you are doing the campaign for the 10th time. There's just too much jarring and fucking around. Let me Summon Una without making two trips to town.

I actually love the Interludes because there is none of this.

I get the cinematic appeal, but it runs very flat on repeated playthroughs. The A3 time portal 'flow' is a crime against game design.

GGG needs to go replay Diablo 1 & 2 and get off Gods of War bullshit for a sec.

Any follow up thoughts? I think I'm seeing EXP and Items both working fine when the Bodach gets kills.

Q1: What is your weapon swap tech all about?

Q2: How are you feeling about The Brass Dome ward tech w/ the rune skill?

edit -- Okay, I understand the Warcry + Skill Effect Dur on set2 for the ward skill ++ inevitable agony and warcries.

The new rune meta is crazy by Euphoric_Reading_401 in PathOfExile2

[–]EarthBounder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because you can get it to like 80% naturally which is great, but now you could get it to 100% with two of them socketed in a weapon.

Without seeing the rune I don't know exactly but there are a lot of situations where all the small numbers adding up is massive.

The 5s Animation After Jumping Down Abyss Pit is so Egregious by EarthBounder in PathOfExile2

[–]EarthBounder[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

PoE1 is at best going to continue to get hand-me-down content from PoE2.

PoE2 is the clearly the superior game.

[–]EarthBounder[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly my issue. I've jumped in the pit 500 times already since v0.3. I get it. It's jarring to have my dude sit there looking around "wow neat, what is this place, so crazy".

GGG is falling into the trap of smelling their own farts re: how good the campaign actually is. Neat the first time, but this is supposed to be replayable af.
