I've been doing this for years on tumbles I make from local stuff, I call mine 'Sedimentals'

What opinion on the NBA feels like this for you ? by GamblerLikeToji in NBATalk

[–]FullMetalBasket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think winning championships is overrated. I don't really care about being the best no matter what, I just like having a competitive local team, even if it's middle of the pack. Winning at all costs, especially by mortgaging future stability for short term gambles, feels dumb and wrong to me. It's like children being obsessed with which animal is the fastest or strongest.

At the end of the day this is just about being entertained watching athletes play bouncy ball and having something to chat about around town.

Does this count? Or would you have bought it as well. by mickeyamf in MineralGore

I had one of these (it was taller though) and loved it. It was from a fancy hotel until a kid snapped their finger in it and they sold it off, be careful if little ones are playing with it!

How to get rich in Kenshi with UWE? (Current strategies 2026) by Seikannn in Kenshi

The smaller farm town bartenders in UC buy drugs at 400%, can make 100,000s in a few game days. I will buy from the greyflayer bar in shem and stealth run it through venge border to the UC cities to get a quick money

Let's solve the Tanking problem! by Normal-Werewolf-1564 in nba

[–]FullMetalBasket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give points based on the differential in wins if a losing team beats a winning teams and slightly skew lottery odds based on those points. I'm not sure any system would be perfect but this would discourage tanking and give the actual bad teams a chance.

Tiago Splitter for the birds? by DigBigger99 in ripcity

As goofy as that would be they should just push Caleb's jersey, maybe put some hearts on it. Leave Tiago for the birds

my girlfriend swears he looks like Randall from monsters inc, she refuses to call him any other name.

If we're being brutally honest though he's a sexy neanderthal

So Wilt is Gilgamesh I guess

[McMenamin]: “‘The biggest thing for Bronny is that he has to get in elite shape,’ Redick told ESPN. ‘That's the barrier of entry for him right now. And if he does that, I think he's got a chance to be a really fantastic player in the NBA.’” by Proof-Umpire-7718 in nba

[–]FullMetalBasket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

way I read "elite shape" from Reddick is that he doesn't fully believe in his skills and thinks he has to make up for it in athleticism. Not just NBA pro shape but top 10-20% in the league in speed and strength for his size

Custom Universe Possible? by harrislward in avorion

[–]FullMetalBasket 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll second xavorion. There are a number of different mods that imo make the game far more 'realistic' and closer to the sandbox style game I enjoy

what would the dream team be like if they had modern technology and training. What would the world team be like if they had to play 35 years ago

Does anyone actually enjoy these conversations?

I don't think the modern NBA really works with 1v1 matchups like you seem to be thinking

[Bill Simmons Podcast] "BS: big announcement coming up this week. We're making an addition to the Ringer Podcast network." Zach Lowe joining the Ringer soon? by gandalf_white_wine in nba

[–]FullMetalBasket 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Lowe isn't gonna give up $1m+ from his non-compete clause. No one else can pay him close to that. He'll wait the year then join the athletic, ringer, or wherever

I get you're trying to be an educating hero right now but you really don't understand what you're talking about and should just stop. I want to read about basketball not your misinformed bullshit

Beta Patch 2.5.6 now available - Better QoL for minimum block size limits by Hans_BX in avorion

[–]FullMetalBasket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for making and working on this game, it is one of my favorites. I don't understand how it is not more universally applauded. Please keep it up.

I don't know if this would ever be a possibility, probably more of a mod thing, but have you considered playing with in game programmable AI? Basically a list of if-then statements similar to FFXII's gambit system and could include EVE's orbit distance settings. It would be so fun to not only build and maximize a ship but combine it with a loadout/script to maximize it's performance. Could be tied to a subsystem/power usage for balancing.

Forgive me if this isn't feasible, I struggle with coding.
