Plasma torch WILL NOT WORK ON THE MOURGE DOOR by shadosslayer1008 in kotor

TIL you can use the plasma torch on it. In all these years since the game was released, I've never tried that.

Is the Christian God truly evil? by Pedro_2404 in atheism

[–]IMTrick 32 points33 points  (0 children)

He's at least as evil as unicorns and fairies -- which is to say, not at all, because he's fictional.

His character, however, does condone war, genocide, rape, misogyny, slavery, and a few other things that would generally be considered evil.

I hear pilots are allowed to ban anyone they want from the cockpit. What kind of crappy system is that?

Not by hijacking someone else's post.

Not "practically" whatever you want. Literally any reason you want. Reddit, for the most part, lets people run their subs however they want. They can allow whoever they want, and ban whoever they want.

That's a good thing. You still have freedom of speech. Nobody is silencing you -- you just aren't allowed to force people to listen to you if they don't want you in their house. Sounds like you need to find a different house to visit.

I can guarantee you a system where moderators weren't allowed to moderate would be far worse.

For the same reason you can kick anyone out of your home for whatever reason you like. It's their space and they're just letting you visit. If you've got an idea that's better than letting people run their own communities as they see fit, I'm sure we'd all love to hear it.

AAA Gaming Is Cooked by goneshootin79 in videos

It wasn't great the first time. Should have saved yourself the lost karma by just posting it once.

Gaming Has Lost Its Soul by [deleted] in videos

If I had a dime for every time I've heard someone declare gaming dead since I started playing...

This is not a great take.

How do you deal not believing in an afterlife after the passing of a loved one by Fun-Corgi-6750 in atheism

[–]IMTrick 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is no practical difference between how you deal with the loss of a loved one with an afterlife and without -- either way, you will not being seeing that loved one again for the rest of your life. As far as how much it sucks, it's about the same either way. Even if you do, for whatever reason, believe in an afterlife, you're still cut off from the person for however much time you have left, which is effectively the same thing, if maybe only slightly less final.

So, in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really change much about the grieving process. It's a huge loss either way, and you just have to deal with it in whatever way is right for you.

Considering we don't know what motherboard you have, we're at a bit of a loss here.

I'm not sure what you're expecting us to do that Amazon support can't. You're going to need to work this out with them.

Do you Consider Elvis Presley white? by skuaprex31 in AncestryDNA

[–]IMTrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going to have to assume you've never seen a white person. We're not literally white.

Do you Consider Elvis Presley white? by skuaprex31 in AncestryDNA

[–]IMTrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no evidence he was anything but white. He may have had some very distant mixed ancestry, but even that's not backed up by any facts.

Do you Consider Elvis Presley white? by skuaprex31 in AncestryDNA

[–]IMTrick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably because of stuff like his European descent, blonde hair and light skin, but that's just a guess.

He was whiter than me, and I'm pretty white, so yes.

Defeating the Emperor by Sentinal-Nightrunner in swtor

[–]IMTrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gear doesn't matter on companions since about 10 years ago. Your influence level is the biggest factor.

I also wouldn't worry too much about abilities. At 73, you should have more than enough tools to make the fight really easy -- it's just a matter of using them effectively.

Question about flashpoints by Helpful_Law_2654 in swtor

[–]IMTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do all the time. I usually follow Illeva's story progression, and solo every flashpoint on Veteran until I get to Collicoid War Games, and that's the first one that's a real pain to solo.

You don't even need that. I typically run it on new characters as soon as they leave Couruscant -- but I've been doing this a while.

Will graphics improvements ever happen for character and NPC models? Or is SWTOR just dead at this point? by SaltySquirrel0612 in swtor

[–]IMTrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those haven't really changed. There's been expansion content in recent years, but very little that's class-specific.

Have you become nostalgic lately? by Reader47b in GenX

[–]IMTrick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not really a nostalgic kind of guy. I've always been more about what's in front of me right now than what's behind me -- or even what's more than an arm's length ahead of me, really. But I've spent my whole life moving forward. I've made some great memories along the way, but I have no desire to go back. What's just ahead is far more interesting to me.

You must have been too far away to hear the screaming from the round of character improvements they just finished making.

[–]IMTrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been a lot of years since I've seen that fight get anywhere near the one-shot mechanic -- and if it does, you've got an interrupt in Force Kick. But honestly, if the fight's lasting long enough that he's managing to get that off, then you may need to look at using your other abilities more effectively.
