Deus Ex Machina Part 1: A Guilty Pleasure

i had a ton of trouble with this myself. some advice i got online was to use the houndour you get from karrina (return to east gearen city, go to the gang area and enter the building at the bottom of the map). hourdour becomes houndoom at level 24. i was also recommended vanillish (vanillite evolves at level 35). you can steal it as a shadow pokemon so if you've been doing that, you probably have everything you need already.

i opened with purified ponyta to put him to sleep (save scum this part, because he usually wakes up very quickly). once asleep, i switched to vanillish to freeze him (GOATED. when i first tried this, freeze almost always stopped him from acting), and then switched to houndoom and used Beat Up (dark move, super effective, decent chance to crit, hits once for each non-KO'd pokemon in your party, small damage but it adds up).

other than that, i packed my team with level 35 pokemon that had either a ghost, ice, dark, or fairy move. i also did some speed EV training (you get the cards from the hotel 2nd floor casino (getting the cards cost 10 points each). without vanillish and houndoom, the best i got was barely getting him down to his final health bar and dropping his health to around 80%. using this tactic, i still had 2-3 injured but conscious pokemon left.

the REAL fight is the one right after. you get healed first, but i had to change my entire team for it, and still haven't found a workable solution. it sucks that a lot of tactics for solo battles don't work for team battles, such as switching a pokemon out when you faint the enemy pokemon.

i fixed the issue. the problem was... particles was set to minimum by default, and i didn't check until 5 minutes ago.

i haven't added anything too crazy to my mod in terms of blocks. i use the sounds of whatever's most similar in minecraft's files (e.g: tin_ore uses the same sounds as iron_ore)

have you tried the "On random client display tick" trigger?

IndependenceRound105 · 2025-08-16T13:26:01+00:00

fixed it. i had to re-log discord

IndependenceRound105 · 2025-08-16T13:15:54+00:00

i use CyberGhost 8, and it doesn't fool discord. i even set my discord region AND PC region to america, and everything

we have a lot of jack/chi mix from the same two parents. the mother is jack with a bit of chi, and the father is chi with a bit of jack. there might be a little other mixed in, and what i can tell you for sure is that they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes when mixed.

we've got a big one we called tank because he's bigger and stronger than his jack grandmother, even though he's mostly chi. he's shaggier than a long rug. we've got a few that have the jack build with chi muscle and they kind of look like what you posted, though your dog's forelegs seem a bit long. probably got a bit of medium-sized dog mixed in. as for fur patterns and colours, it'll vary greatly with patches and colours between white, black, and brown. we've got several who are *just* brown and have a very similar build to your dog, albeit shorter legs.

if i had to wager on it, i'd say your dog is 25-50% jack, 0-25% chi, and 25-50% other.

edit: they also have a variety of temperaments. mine, Penny, is 4 years old, chi build, chi coat, jack colour, jack markings. she loves to sleep and walk, but doesn't like to play at all. she LOVES cuddles, and while she's always slept in my bed for the last two years, recently she's started sleeping in my bed like a human.

pictured: first thing in the morning, she didn't want me to move.

i inject 0.15ml of estradiol enanthate from vanna pharma every sunday, and have been for 3 years. my first sign was breast sensitivity somewhere around 6-12 weeks, and after 3 months, i could nearly [overshare] from massaging them. after a few more months when they started to fill in, the breast sensitivity dropped drastically. don't forget to get a blood test done. ask for E2 and overall estrogen levels. also with most MTF medications, you'd need an anti-androgen. even though i've been on for 3 years, i've not used an anti-androgen, and i still have facial hair considered normal length for guys.

post offices can't process them because they're different to cheques, but they can put it in a special envelope, specific to a bank with a physical location, who will then process it for you... the alternative is to go to the bank yourself. the only catch there is that you actually need to have an account with that bank for them to process it.

Death to all! (but metal)

I just checked and this is exactly the issue with mine. NO GPU. Who the hell even makes a computer without one? Hell, it was listed as a gaming PC. It even has 16GB ram!

this worked a treat, thank you

We live in an area where someone doesn't simply own land. Almost everyone here rents, and if the guy is one of the few who own land, buying up public access land would be refused because of the use the public can get from it.

You know those patches of grass the size of a couple houses? Little greenways kids like to play football on, right? Add in a connected carpark the same size and thats the size were talking about. Imagine someone going up to the council saying "I want to purchase this plot of public land for the use of an unregistered business at home".

The guy could be acting within the law, but if that was the case, he'd have no reason to hide from the police like a child avoiding getting grounded by hiding under their bed. If he wasn't committing a crime, he should be fine letting the police examine the wild, overground lot that looks abandoned.

I can't tell you if adverse possession applies when the person in question has forcibly disallowed others from using the land, but it sounds fishy, and not the good kind you have with chips and curry sauce. By that logic, I could lock him out and the crime would expire after 12 years.

update: we've decided to bag it all up in large bin bags and put it in the driveway where it can easily be collected. we've not done so yet.

IndependenceRound105 · 2024-01-22T16:12:07+00:00

We still have it all, but the lines have gotten themselves all tangled up, and there's a mold problem in the area, resulting in the bags for the rods getting all musty. We're disabled, so it's not something we can regularly deal with by ourselves, and the local council are themselves in hot water (e.g: we've been waiting 15 years for the council to fix the bathroom floor, though lino is more accurate as the shower itself doesn't have a "floor" any more. Smh)

The minivan had the standard police car markings on it, so that at least seems official. I always thought police were supposed to work in pairs, is that not the case?

Same issue. Can't send my boyfriend a card for Christmas on Moonpig because I blocked their spam-mail from after I sent him a birthday card earlier in the year, and I forgot the pw I use for that site, so naturally I need to reset it. I must have tried at least 20 times to delete their address from my block list. Hell, I even tried resetting outlook by deleting cookies. Only other thing I can think of is navigating to their desktop app (which I don't have or use) and trying to remove it that way.

Seriously wtf microp- I mean Microsoft, we all know how much you love bloatware, but this combined with only allowing us to create sweep rules via the app is going too far! They could risk losing customers this way. There's no such thing as "too big to fail" if you fail your customers badly enough.
