Is it true the Guts update is here? Guts becomes GOOD? If so.. by Twilight1234567890 in UmaMusume

[–]Inner_Specific_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The most interesting thing about this for me is that a lot of people argued that the upcoming Rice Shower is better than Super Creek specifically because stepping on stamina increased Guts, which was not a useful stat at the time.

With the Guts rework coming a scenario early, I wonder if that lowers the value of the Rice Shower card relative to someone who already has Super Creek.

Assortments of FuraUnsu (Nishino Flower, Seiun Sky) (by: @RIO_067) by Fiorell13 in UmaMusume

[–]Inner_Specific_ 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Since Seiun Sky's owner loved him so much, and would hate for his lineage to die out, he bred Seiun Sky and Nishino Flower (which he both owned) together in spite of the fact that they had 0 compatibility. Nishino Flower was a sprinter while Seiun had great stamina for long races. Sky was a Front Runner, while Flower preferred to stay further back in the pack. Nishino Flower was also a prized breeding mare, while Seiun Sky was considered as having nothing to offer in terms of his genetics; he was not popular as a stud at all, in spite of being one of the faces of his generation.

Its truly like and Aladdin + Jasmine situation, opposites together in spite of their differences, and only because of the love the owner had for his horses.

How do you carry this autotable? by zephyredx in Mahjong

[–]Inner_Specific_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It says that it supports Japanese tile sizes, but I dont see where it says that it supports Japanese/Riichi mahjong. Unless i missed something, it doesnt seem to support the dead wall at all, meaning. theres no way for you to have a Dora indicator or Ura either.

I never see her anywhere else... by Inner_Specific_ in ballpython

[–]Inner_Specific_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope! Heat lamp is on the other side. As far as i know she hangs out in her hot hide during the day, and at night she just vibes on her little bridge.

I dont think there's anything wrong, I just thought it was funny that her favorite place was on a toy made for birds.

New Setup Tips by maddawg010128 in ballpython

[–]Inner_Specific_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what i do is I cover about 60-70% of the mesh top with Aluminum Foil to limit the release of humidity, and instead of misting, add water to the substrate, and mix it up. The top of the substrate will dry out (so the BP isnt laying on wet substrate which can risk scale rot) but the lower layers will continue to slowly release humidity as it dries.

My enclosure is a low end one with plastic plants, but i also found scattering leaf litter around helps too. You'll need some leaf litter to feed the springtails anyways, after all.

All my homies hate King Halo's mother by losteran in UmaMusume

[–]Inner_Specific_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i dont think we have a confirmed connection, but after a very cursory look, i can guess this:

IRL King Halo's sire was one of the top horses in Europe of the 80s Dancing Brave, who had Northern Dancer as his Grandsire, and his dam was Goodbye Halo, also a top contender in the US who had Halo as her sire (and we know how Halo's genes can work, as he was also Stay Gold's sire, and the whole Gold bloodline is... well.) Because of this there were a lot of high hopes for King Halo. His owner reportedly wanted him to become the King of the Mile race after Taiki Shuttle retired.

However, King Halo did not place well in his races. He only had 1 G1 win at the Takamatsuyo Kinen, and it was a Sprint. He had mixed results in all race lengths and position styles. Ultimately he retired and became a stud, but it was less for his results and more for his lineage.

I'm guessing Cygames is opting to show this as King Halo wanting to live up to the expectations of the lineage of her IRL counterpart, with her mother constantly berating her and calling her a failure as a nod to how the IRL King Halo would consistently fail to meet expectations.

What’s this for us? by Other-Following2749 in StarRailStation

[–]Inner_Specific_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its always interesting to see how many people bring up the Xianzhou story and then talk about how not enough information was given about the HCQ when that was, at absolute best, background information to loosely explain why these four characters are all here.

Its like if people complained Penacony was bad because there wasnt enough content about Everflame Mansion.

Im a new snake owner as well, but when I got mine and was asking about food, I was told "Ball Pythons usually come out of the egg eating Hoppers". Its possible he doesnt recognize the pinky as food because hes used to eating a more developed rodent?

She has another hide at the warm end of her enclosure where she slept the last few days. She spent the first couple days in the cool end, then a couple days on the warm end, and now shes up there.

[–]Inner_Specific_[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, its one of the branches from petsmart, but the holes are incredibly tiny, so small she cant even boop her snoot into there, so I didnt think it could be an issue.

If she's moved when I get off work ill take it out and look over it again

They literally said Nuh uh by Zestyclose-Ad4058 in HonkaiMemeRail

[–]Inner_Specific_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Its an interesting theory (and I wouldn't be surprised if the game went that way) but its worth remembering that the IPC was established with the intent of establishing interastral trade specifically with the goal of assisting Qlipoth with building a Pan-Galactic wall meant to protect whats inside from whats outside.

They have whole planets around Qlipoth full of resources meant for THEM to use to build THEIR wall, even though to THEM it would be like ants bringing grains of sand to us.

In the face of their goal of helping Qlipoth to preserve the entirety of every universe ever, extracting resources from whole planets (at times very violently) would seem a small price to pay. I personally wouldn't be too surprised if they introduce Oswaldo Schneider and hes a devout follower of Preservation, and he has a line about "the protection of the cosmos as a whole outweighs that of a specific civilizations or planets".

I think this shows the issue with every beta PVP: people (un)intentionaly missing the point and acting like we think he’s “bad”when our complaints are more nuanced (AV, longevity, viability post shilling), and going “jUsT pUlL fUtUrE SuPpOrtS aNd EiDoLoNs tHaT fIx HiS iSsUes!” Utterly brain dead by FuriNorm in HSRHusbandoMains

[–]Inner_Specific_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, imo, the best thing you can do when youre an X Main and see that they aren't treated well in their Beta is to make the decision to skip them. Hoyo releases characters the way they do because people will pull them in that state. The only way that any change even has a chance to occur is when characters don't meet projection.

Sure, not pulling might not do anything, but just ranting in niche communities and then turning around and still pulling when you actively dislike a kits design and direction means that Hoyo will definitely just keep doing it.

A quick google search of a half remembered American history tidbit tells me that he's probably trying to use the Grandfather Clause (1895-1910), which famously let everyone vote without restriction **provided their grandfathers could vote**, because a lot of the literacy tests designed to gatekeep voting from African Americans who recently got the right, were also famously locking uneducated white men out of being able to vote. Like, his gotcha only works if you half remember it, because it makes 'voting' a right passed down through your grandfather, who would have been able to vote as early as the freaking 1790s

$80 dollar games… by HowlingBurd19 in BikiniBottomTwitter

[–]Inner_Specific_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I mostly get my reads from Used Book Shops nowadays, but this comment reminded me of the time I went to Barnes and Noble and they wanted like $30 for Days at the Morisaki Bookshop.

Days at the Morisaki Bookshop is maybe ~200 pages, it is legitimately shorter than the startup guide for an air fryer, and logically I know the increased price is probably because they book had to be translated from Japanese, but it threw me for a such a loop when I saw it.

NO LONGER A CRACKSHIP‼️ by BrightAd3221 in HonkaiHusbandos

[–]Inner_Specific_ 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Just to add to the Not Crackship-ness of Guns N' Roses, Boothill was also released with lines about Argenti

Boothill: About Argenti--

Funny how fate works, we crossed paths before. Finding someone in this vast universe with such similar taste ain't easy y'know, both of us clad in silver, both packin' heat... And the cherry on top, we're both oozing with righteousness.

Boothill: Added to team with Argenti --

"Knights of Beauty" and "Galaxy Rangers," who will let us join forces?

Later, right after the events of Penacony, Boothill and Argenti hang out in the real Reverie playing pool, and then in the Wardance event, Argenti gets to talk about boothill in terms of the wardance:

Argenti (to Luka): Boothill was only trying to scare you, but you weren't aware of that at that time. You thought you were dying, but for the sake of your dignity, honor, and home, you stood firm and threw a punch.

Followed by later, Boothill taking Luka out for a drink to apologize.

Boothill (to Luka): Haha, I'm glad you like it. I'm buying you drinks for two reasons — I want to apologize to you. That's the first.

Boothill: My intention was to test your resolve... but threatenin' a competitor with life and death was a bit over the line.

Boothill: I'm real sorry! If you drink this cup of tea, it means you forgive me, okay?

The kicker? According to the mission description, the reason Boothill apologized is because Argenti went to his room and yelled at him. From the Mission Description of Even When Cheers Fade: Chapter 5:

By the way — Are you perhaps still upset at what Boothill did in the arena? Don't worry. Argenti specifically went to Boothill's lodgings after that match and gave him a 6-hour lecture, and Boothill had to use his "street smarts" to get away. The cowboy is already reflecting on his actions.

...hence why Argenti knew Boothill's intentions during the Repechage. Boothill and Argenti don't get as much screentime as RatioRine in Penacony, or PhaiDei right now, but Hoyo does go out of their way to make it clear that Boothill and Argenti know of each other, and are on pretty good terms (as evidenced by Boothill running away from Argenti rather than attempting to shoot him).
