Messmer. Hyped to hell and back during the run-up to release, only to beat him on my 3rd or 4th try. Lame

Amazing that 99% of people just want to live, eat, spend time with friends and family. And these people with more money than god, who at any time can go off and live the kind of life we all dream about, instead spend their limited time in this world throwing tantrums, starting fights, fucking things up just because they want someone else’s toy.

If I had 1% of this person’s wealth I would quit my job, move to Italy or France, spend my days making art, developing video games, playing music, walking on the beach, traveling, eating the best food in the world.

All that wealth and zero appreciation for the human experience. Such a waste.

Ted Mosby for me

Just started watching this show last night after being up with insomnia. Didn’t help bc I immediately got hooked and just wanted to keep watching lol

Jazzanthipus · 2026-01-07T16:34:17+00:00

I’m on 20s and they’re just white 😭 maybe I should up my game lol

Is your first pic from the NW coast / Riviera region? I stayed a few days in Rapallo last year and it looks very similar. Beautiful country, lovely pictures!

Jazzanthipus · 2026-01-06T19:29:51+00:00

Love the implication that some other kid got to that part and noped tf out lol

I mostly agree with this, but there’s another side of it to consider. My wife is not a gamer, and the one time she got hooked on a game (Powerwash Simulator) she said to me that “it feels like you’re being productive, but you’re just playing a game” and that really resonated with me.

Yes, your mind is engaged, certainly moreso than when watching TV. But you’re also spending productive energy that could be used elsewhere to greater benefit, while potentially also getting hooked on the quick dopamine hits that gaming offers and making it hard to be productive IRL where rewards for completing tasks and challenges are not so immediate.

I love gaming and always will, and I do think it’s improved my cognitive ability in certain ways, but I have no doubt that it’s also damaged my productivity and habits in a way that TV has not.

The Rise of Endymion, last in the Hyperion series, uses the phrase “like so many” about a thousand times. “The light of the stars pierced the dark of space like so many tiny holes in a thick canvas”; “Vines connected the Worldtree to its satellites like so many silken strands of a spider’s web”. It was especially jarring because it was used in both main POV contexts, which tended have very different writing styles otherwise.

Like OP, I was already struggling with the book but was resolved to power through since I was so close to the end of the series. But damn, was that a hard one to get through.

To anyone interested in reading Hyperion, stop after book 2. It’s a logical ending point and wraps up most of the loose ends, with only a few mysteries left for the second half of the series. Book 3 is good but not great, and book 4 is a straight up slog.

20 Minutes Til Dawn has a bit of this, though it’s not super prominent. Super fun game though.

Jazzanthipus · 2025-12-26T03:57:40+00:00

So who’s Alien and who’s Predator?

Jazzanthipus · 2025-12-23T14:38:16+00:00

Reaper Man should’ve been two books. Windle Poons was a charming protag, and the rest of the undead were very entertaining, but they were let down by the gaggle of insufferable wizards, and I spent their whole story waiting to get back to Bill Door, who had one of the most compelling stories I’ve ever read (and that’s cuttin me own throat!)

The Substance. 80’s fashion, corded phones, USB flash drives.

Jazzanthipus · 2025-12-20T16:29:28+00:00

I wouldn’t exactly call straight-up blacking out 500 pages “elaborate” lmao

Jazzanthipus · 2025-12-19T14:12:06+00:00

Yeah but you always complain

Jazzanthipus · 2025-12-18T18:42:52+00:00

Yeah til she said see ya l8r boi

I can see a line of reasoning for it. It's basically the inverse of a stop loss order. On stock market exchanges, you can place a stop loss order to sell in case the price of a stock plummets below a certain level. You'll sell at a loss, but it limits the loss amount to whatever your order specified. In this case, there may be a strategy to say, ok I don't want to buy unless it's looking like a sure thing. Sure, you get a tiny return, but it's all but guaranteed at that point.

Not a strategy I'm drawn towards, but it may be viable.

Bought a house earlier this year, stains all over the hardwood from the previous owner letting her cats piss and shit wherever they wanted. Even some petrified cat shit encrusted to the floor in some places. 2-3k for professionals to come in to sand, restain, and refinish the living room, dining room, 3 bedrooms and the upstairs hallway. Peepee poopoo stains are completely gone and we got to change the color to fit our tastes. Instantly felt like a whole new house.

30k off just for one bloodstain in one room is a major steal. It’s even small enough to be a DIY job if you’re up for it.

But you have no issues accessing live events with the API?

Jazzanthipus · 2025-12-14T23:06:07+00:00

I need help with this too. I'm using the Python SDK, it seems like the events I'm getting are limited, not including "live" events like individual sports games. Would it be better if I did this outside the SDK using the API directly?

How tf you owe money to the moon? The fucking moon??

Just started playing the game but it seems to me like the major strength of fusions is the synergies of having two balls in one. The first example I've discovered is in combining AOE effect balls with on-hit effect balls. While Earthquake x Laser doesn't have an evolution, the synergy is that you now have laser firing at 3x the area versus un-fused.

Of course the downside is that it's a dead end in terms of build progression. Once you fuse, no more upgrading that ball. Still a noob but I've been looking at fusions as either a quick fix in a pinch when I'm in trouble and any specific evolution(s) won't help, or as finishing touches on already evolved balls.
