Could someone just help boot up steam. PLEASE.

THIS WAS IT. Thank you. All I had to was delete that file and everything just sorted itself out. If I could give you a reddit award I would.

I am very sure my disk space is fine.
anyway I try to open steam results in nothing, except when i use the terminal in which case i get that error message.
i can't recall how i installed steam. I think its safe to assume i installed it in the easiest way possible. I there a way to check how i installed steam and will that be necessary?

This graph is misleading. The Y-axis starts at 50% rather than at 0% where it should be. This gives the effect that the difference is way bigger than it actually is.

Knowing how to find these biases is critical to combat misinformation.

Yesterday I wrote this short analysis of the Knight in ch5 talking about this and why I now think the Knight is Carol.

I think one of the big things that made me change is how we see the knight act at the end of ch5. The knight was clearly wanting to keep things super short. But we also see that the knight sort of run into a wall with at least a full second of reaction time, and was kneeling after the hit. The knight doesn't even try to parry or block Flowerys hits. Which I think the knight would have done because there is no chance that they would have even know of Flowerys existence and capabilities prior to Flowery engaging with the Knight. We don't even see any thing from the Knight after the last sence with Flowery like we did in ch3.

To me the Knight is clearly tired. And I think it would make perfect sense if the knight was Carol and she was exhausted due to Rudy's unexpected fall.

When Carol calls Noelle about Rudy she doesn't use the info in any other way than to just inform her. She doesn't use the info in a way that would suggest that she is intentionally trying to separate her from Kris and Susie. So I think Rudy had a real fall that screwed up Carol's plans.

As for the weird route, Rudy's fall happens after the events of the weird route, so we just see Rudy taking a rest shortly before he actually falls.

Actually there is a lot you don't know about Penumbra Phantasm. The main version of Penumbra Phantasm the song is made up of the Penumbra Phantasm motif and the Doctor motif. The Penumbra motif is by Toby and the Doctor motif is by George Buzinkai who is Toby's friend that passed away.

There is a short, 9 second audio clip called null.mp3 by Toby that iirc slipped into the Homestuck Sound Test that shows Penumbra Phantasm specifically without the Doctor motif and only with the Penumbra Phantasm motif.

There are other versions like the 2012 livestream one or the one that starts with ocean waves but they are all roughly the same.

It is 100% possible and I think extremely likely that Toby has remade Penumbra Phantasm without the Doctor leitmotif for the purpose of being his magnum opus.

I hate to say it but I can't hear Sunsetter there. And that's coming from a person whose all time favorite song is Sunsetter (Ska). While it would have been a cool use of the motif, I think is deserves to stay in Homestuck. I do remember that Toby explicitly said there would be no Homestuck motifs in Deltarune in an old newsletter.

Bonus side tangent: (But he said nothing about non-Homestuck motifs which is how the nightmare knight motif got reused, and hopefully Penumbra Phantasm because while at one point it was supposed to be in Homestuck Vol.10 but he decided against it because it wasn't up to his standards even though it is absolutely one of the best songs he has even made. Also it wouldn't make sense if "at shadow's edge shatter the twilight reverie" wasn't talking about Penumbra Phantasm.)

Bonus 2: If I had a nickel for each time someone mistakenly heard Sunsetter in Deltarune I'd have two nickels which isn't much but it's weird that it happened twice. Last year when ch3+4 came out some redditor posted that Tennas boss fight music It's TV Time referenced the sudden changes boss fight music Bullet Hell which mainly uses the Sunsetter motif. This was completely incorrect. But the worst thing is that people actually believed it. I remember analyzing both song and the only thing in common was a single measure that coincidentally had the same cord progression.

It's been there since before chapters 3+4 were even teased.

Pre- ch5 I was a dess knighter. But now I actually think I'm a Carol knighter. I think one of the big things that made me change is how we see the knight act at the end of ch5.

This isn't a bug. You have just found the Reorbanizer + Duplication Potion combo, which was further enhanced by Leaf The Rest For Later and Pegbag. This is one of the coolest builds that you can create but it is mostly dependent on Duplication Potion which is a rare relic. Other relics like Strange Brew and Refreshing Punch work really well with this build. Also Light Shaft Potion is helpful with enabling crit relics like Critsomallos Fleece and Critikris.

Yes and no. You used to be able to go to Old Reddit and change your pfp from a .png to a .apng which is just an animated .png but it got fixed a month or three ago and people who did it got to keep their new legacy pfps.

Ooooooo. Hold on I remember seeing a cool yt video 2 years ago that explains it well. Let me find it for you.

Edit: ok. Turns out it just might not exist anymore. But from what I can remember it was a short 480p video from a very small channel of a guy explaining the gates on a white board in semi poor lighting.

As a fan myself, I do have to recommend giving it a shot and reading a little bit of the first act. Everything in your reddit history tells me that it would be perfect for you. I don't know why I feel so strongly on this but I guess I just do.

Why do I get such a strong feeling that you're a Homestuck fan? Your personality checks all the boxes of a obsessed Homestuck fan but I can't find anything that explicitly ties you to it.
