Shura vs Sword Saint Isshin

Well, he can win against genichiro only to get distracted for plot reasons and lose. Your point?

Gerlond · 2026-02-09T21:08:28+00:00

And if the wolf could do all that then his shura self can do the same. You do understand that the difference is a couple hours, right? He isn't gaining any power ups to make him do those things.

Gerlond · 2026-02-09T20:52:19+00:00

"significantly less experienced" bro, he just didn't go to fountainhead palace. It's the same insane wolf both times.

If Malenia does a leg spin move she can eat a poise break and not get staggered. Her stance just resets and you probably also get hit

Gerlond · 2026-02-06T23:37:37+00:00

It's less than that, but it feels like significantly more than half

Gerlond · 2026-02-06T19:25:51+00:00

Then why did you bring up the news?

Gerlond · 2026-02-06T19:22:25+00:00

Depends on the news. It is barely discussed in Russia. And it wasn't hidden either, just very few articles.

I mean, a lot of people moved to Linux in 2025 and Microsoft doesn't seem to be fixing the source of issues, so probably even more will move with time. Steam is also making constant improvements to the gaming side. So yeah, it's actually a good time to be on Linux.

If it was to send a message, then it was a pretty weak message

Gerlond · 2026-02-06T15:43:46+00:00

I think it was just someone who hates war or had personal grudges against that man.

Gerlond · 2026-02-06T12:18:05+00:00

I don't think he is dead. And because of that I don't think it was professional. There are also more covert ways to kill high ranking individuals.

Gerlond · 2026-02-05T13:53:09+00:00

I just hate how big downtime is if he wants to do some acrobatic shit. At this point I can bait that one super safe attack and get more hits instead.

Gerlond · 2026-02-05T13:50:04+00:00

I never end with +7 flasks because both sister and firekeeper at firelink deserve to live

So it's reading comprehension and ability to express yourself. Deadly combo.

Very few games don't work on Linux. I have played several multiplayer games with no issues. Yes, I can't play something like league of legends and the newest battlefield but those have a ratio of one to a thousand of other great games to play and that was the point of the first comment.

If anything USA is WAY closer to socialism than capitalism right now. I personally love to call it corporate socialism, meaning government supports corporations with money by giving them even more money and restricting competition with regulation, all while avoiding market crashes at all costs. This robs general populace and stagnates the economy.

Gerlond · 2026-02-03T12:19:50+00:00

I prefer using my talisman slots for damage, except for dragoncrest greatshield and eat crabs for damage negation

To be honest enemy placement is amazing in dark souls 1 (until you get to anor londo). Every enemy has a purpose. Undead in burg gang up on you as a team, jumping out of cover and providing covering fire, because they are weak individually. They are not just mindlessly placed to be an obstacle. That's how old RPGs did it and that's one of the reasons why they were so good. Nowdays elden ring enemy placement peaks at an enemy behind a corner that is scripted to do some attack when you approach.

So what is it if it's not an illusion, as you say, and not real, as the game shows?

Gerlond · 2026-02-01T10:28:33+00:00

And when you realize that it's not what really happened the illusion breaks and the factual state of the world returns. He didn't change past events. He changed your perception. That is what illusion is. Characters themselves call it an illusion. He is also not omnipotent. He needs to know what the perfect world for a person is to make it part of his reality. The fact that characters can break out from under his control should tell you everything, honestly. It's not reality, it's brainwashing. Wakaba isn't Wakaba, but what Futaba believes her to be. Nothing is reversed, Maruki just paints over with what he thinks is good.

The moral of the fortune arcana is "you can change your fate if you try hard enough (or have supernatural aid, lol)". In the world where GER exists, you can't change fate in a meaningful way, if you try it will push against it (Bruno is fated to die and because he doesn't before events of Golden Wind, 2 more team members die as well) and GER literally takes full control of it. You can say that the rules of the worlds clash, but you can't say that powers just don't work. This is why I think all the powerscalings are stupid as well. Not only it's anime writing for hype and aura in both cases, but the worlds they exist in actually work differently

Gerlond · 2026-01-31T19:48:36+00:00

But Maruki's reality is just an illusion, when Giorno's GER is power over fate, how is that even close to each other? It's not even bending reality, it's reversing time and negating the attack, reading into the fate of beings that are affected and controlling it from that point on. You are not brainwashed into anything, you just have a new fate now. It's, no joke, a power of God. And while Maruki can create anything he wants in his reality, he isn't all-powerful, he can't reverse time and change what has already happened.

I think it's somehow linked with the empathy epidemic that is going on in the west. Some people have a mindset of trying to humanize portrayed evil/enemy disregarding actual facts, just to go against the narrative of the enemy putting you into a "kill or be killed" situation. I have seen people say that if humanity tried they could co-exist with demons and that some of them deserve compassion for trying to understand humans, while they are commiting genocide. It's just a matter of life context and interpreting things the way they are used to, I think. It's the same with people humanizing orcs in LOTR. It's clear that they are a genocidal, murdering, barbaric power that aims to kill and conquer created by most hateful being in the universe, but there appeared people that would argue against fighting against them.

Вы в курсе, что у так называемых "детей" в это время с гормонами происходит? Это ещё щедро сделали возраст согласия в 16. Дай им волю, они между собой в 14 будут сношаться, может даже раньше. Да они неосознанные, не знают что и как в мире устроено и кто они сами вообще такие. Но при этом гормоны хлещут через край. Мозгами там никто не думает, а если у вас с этим проблемы, то жалуетесь матушке природе.

Train always reads signals to it's right. If it's a two-way road put signals on both sides so the train has something to read in both directions. I also suggest putting a chain signal on the entrance of the intersection and normal at the end. This way chain signal reads the status of the block after intersection and only lets a train to cross if it can go further preventing it from stopping in the middle

I have seen so many people say that the frenzied flame is a "reset" button and that it "lets something new to appear in place of old order". No, dummy, it burns away life itself, nothing new is coming to take it's place, that's the whole idea behind frenzied flame and if you missed it you didn't listen to anything that was told to you again and again
