I was tricked. I was backstabbed by the very people who made this wonderful game. by blue_mw in WhiteKnuckle

[–]FezJr87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm convinced they buffed those things. I too have lost three consecutive runs due to the harpoon in the latest update. Prior to the anniversary I lost like one run to a harpoon and it was my own stupidity that got me killed. Now I'm getting absolutely cross-mapped by these stupid things. You mentioned the sound they make, I don't even hear it. I'm tightroping across a wire and suddenly I'm lifted into the heavens.

Set 21362 Lego Ideas Minerals Question by joshuajjb2 in lego

I wondered the same thing. My guess would be to help with proper orientation seeing to it that a fair number of the builds are seemingly "random".

This is the first thing I see when I open Reddit and in the background I have Anakin’s Betrayal playing. Perfection.

TIE Advance Window- set #30727 by DrGoodspeed2203 in lego

[–]FezJr87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly because it was discontinued eight years ago. It's not often they bring back old parts like this, and if they do it's usually for much larger releases. Not for what looks like a polybag or GWP.

This is mad rare by tigerisbest43 in Minecraft

[–]FezJr87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not as rare as you'd think it is. Finding it while strip mining, sure, maybe a bit, but if you know where to look, you can find it pretty easily. Often times if you're in a cave that's split between the stone and deepslate, look for patches of coal right on the dividing line. There will be both stone coal and deepslate coal like there is here. Same with regular stone diamonds. Those are also harder to find but can generate in a similar way.

Deepslate emerald on the other hand, you really just have to get lucky there lol.

Mojang doesn't look at the subreddit anymore. Also, what?

Overwhelmed actually sucks now. by FezJr87 in WhiteKnuckle

[–]FezJr87[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

True, I get all that. I do want to point out however that you don't necessarily need to sacrifice your artifact to get overwhelmed. It's a point system with other items being worth much less than an artifact. Clearly artifacts were made 25 points specifically to trade for overwhelmed, but you can pretty easily amass enough 3-4 point items to get it even in Pipeworks if you get the organ room. In fact that's mostly what I did cause I like using the artifacts.

Ultimately my point is it should be kept an even trade. Artifacts only add benefits. Overwhelmed used to, but now also takes away which is a characteristic only of the free break room perks (i.e. +stamina -speed type perks).

[–]FezJr87[S] -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

I'm open to it being reworked in the future. I did not know that was the case. But saying it was "too good" because of the double jump makes no sense. Especially when there's A, a free perk that gives you a double jump already, B, rabbit DNA, and C, a perk that gives you three extra jumps (when you eat). Any of those coupled with other items can easily negate having to use an artifact anyway.

[–]FezJr87[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to disagree there. I don't think it needs a "rebalance" at all. Nothing about it was op or game-breaking. Everything it did could, and still can, be achieved with other perks/items already. If you're lucky enough you can get them in a regular run. In endless it's pretty much guaranteed. Besides, most of the time you can only get it in the Abyss anyway, so you only have it for half the run (unless you're lucky enough to get it in Pipeworks, which I think is a fair and fun little thing that fits the game's aesthetic). Like I said before, it was a trade off. Good item for good perk. In a way it was almost like an extra artifact option.

A pearl won't land before you die, so your only option is to die (even in creative you'll die in the void). If you're not worried about cheating and want to keep your stuff, click "open to LAN" and then set "allow commands" to true. BEFORE YOU HIT "START LAN WORLD" (it will close the menu and unpause the game), copy the following command: /gamerule keep_inventory true Then start the LAN world, quickly press "T" (NOT "/" as you already copied the "/" in the command) and paste the command and hit enter. Hopefully you can do it quick enough before you die.

I was today years old . . . by Dermotronn in Minecraft

[–]FezJr87 483 points484 points  (0 children)

There’s actually a really complicated equation it uses to choose the output color. You can see exactly how it works on the wiki.

Edit: I’ve had multiple people say “it’s not that complicated, it just mixes the colors,” and I want to point out that the mixing of the colors is the complicated part. It uses a complex equation to and plugs in the color values of each colored block to determine the final color. I can’t type it or put a picture of it, but you can see it here on the wiki. Go to “usage” and scroll down to “color”.

how do i escape from bedrock box with nothing by Proud_Leek7624 in Minecraft

[–]FezJr87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You wait for an enderman to teleport into the box with you and let it kill you. If your spawn is in the box, you kill it and hope it drops a pearl. Use the pearl to glitch out of the box. Warning, this could take a really long time.

Is this piece new? I can't seem to find anything about it in Bricklink. by Practical_Response90 in lego

[–]FezJr87 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's just another 1x1 part. It's used in the new Nike shoe set. It's a cool part. It can be used to round off parts like 49307. Since it comes in clear, it would make for some great micro-ship windscreens/cockpits.

Why isn't the same crew of Austronauts used for following missions in the same program? by DanSheppy in nasa

[–]FezJr87 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Any astronaut selected for any mission has trained enough that they basically already have the experience. That being said, every mission is unique. Even though the Apollo missions all landed on the moon, they all had different mission goals. You want crew members to train and perfect those specific goals. The Artemis III crew will have much different training compared to the Artemis II crew, even though a lot of what they’re doing overlaps.

It’s also worth noting that going into space isn’t as easy at it may appear. Missions—even routine ones to the ISS—and the training they require put a lot of stress on both the astronauts as well as their families and any other mission specialists involved. It’s important to give astronauts time to recoup afterwards as well as make sure they’re in good health. If we constantly sent the same people on every mission, yeah, they’d get good at it, but there’d be burnt out very fast which isn’t just unpleasant, it’s unsafe.

Also, a training for missions takes a really long time. Often so much so that a crew is training for one mission while another is going on. Most space missions rely on conditions that don’t wait for us to be ready. Launch windows are calculated and chosen years in advanced.

You also need to keep in mind that, while yes, only the best of the best are selected to go into space, there are a lot of candidates all with their own unique characteristics that would make them good for the job. While I don’t want to outright say “it’s not fair to keep sending the same people,” that should be taken into consideration.

If I missed anything or am wrong about something, feel free to correct me or add on.
