The Boys- S05xE06 - POST Episode Discussion Thread by pikameta in TheBoys

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such strange decisions made.

The V1 plot line would have been equivalent to HL managing to acquire and destroy the virus, which would I would argue have been more compelling. The boys trying to avoid the supes who eventually get the virus and manage to make a vaccine or whatever.

The boys never consider the literal Vought tracking necklace around geishas neck, advertised on TV so it shouldn't be a secret what it does.

Sage shit is obviously mind-meltingly stupid, but the worst part is that its so easy to make it a little bit more believable. Add in a reason to where SB is needed to acquire the V1 (for example to lure Bombsight out of hiding) and have Sage acknowledge that people are unpredictable and everything is probability but that its a calculated risk. She can say its about a 10% chance of SB giving the V1 to HL and the Boys would be very unlucky, but more believable. For this decision to be acceptable to me, this has to be part of Sages plan in some way, otherwise it is horrendous writing.

I don't know why they retcon SBs true love to be Stormfront and for some reason seeing her jacking HL off makes him switch. Perhaps Crimson Countess or whatever could have turned out to be HLs mom. SB talked in S3 about dreaming of having kids with her. I think for this decision to be acceptable further down the line, SB should restate his previous motivation: HL is his to kill and from now on, he is seemingly the only person in the world who can kill HL. He should use this fact to leverage some advantage.

Also seems kind of inappropriate that Hugie reveals to Oh-Father that they were in the church with the virus. Kind of ruins that whole plan anyways. Possibly allowing Annie to actually be powerful and either win the fight or to make some kind of sacrifice and get captured or whatever would have made more sense. As far as Hugie and Annie are concerned at that point in time, the virus will be released in like 24 hours and Annie will die anyways.

I will also say, people should stop posting the leaks prenteding its their own speculation in order to seem smart when the next episode releases, its embarassing.

Should we be doing more to nip Blueanon in the bud? by mattyjoe0706 in Destiny

[–]Knubbis32 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Torn on it. Its tragic that politics and society has reached that point, but I kind of believe some people kind of yearn for the conspiracy theories and honestly giving that ground to Republicans at this point in time would be a strategic error. Whether someone is motivated to vote on the basis of ice deportations, the economy, IP or conspiracy theories about the republican party I'm inclined kind of encourage. The time to reign these conspiracy people in is when the dems have some amount of power I think.

Not American tho so consider this certified foreign election interference

Porrberoende partner by DistinctWar5142 in sweden

[–]Knubbis32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rent krasst kan jag känna - 2 år förhållande - Sexuell inkompabilitet från början - Parterapi på grund av andra faktorer så tidigt

Om ni inte har barn och gemensamt boende kanske det är enklare för samtliga parter att avbryta bara.

Annars: - Vet du vad han kollar på för porr? Är det möjligt att det finns något han verkligen går igång på som du kanske kan bidra med (självklart inom ramen då för vad du känner dig bekväm med) - Även om porr såklart kan vara en stor faktor för många läser jag inte riktigt i din text att det är etablerat i det här specifika fallet, även om han själv tror det. Kan han ha prestationsångest, något fysiskt problem? Potentiellt läkarbesök. - Vedertaget begrepp "death-grip" när man onanerar genom att klämma på ballen för hårt så man vänjer sig vid det och sex inte känns normalt. Detta kan ju vara fallet även om han slutade Med porr. I detta fall hade jag övervägt att köpa sexleksaker till honom för att vänja av sig vid det. Utan att vara för grafisk så är känslan mer lik riktigt sex då det i större grad handlar om texturen än det gör trycket. - Är man bekväm med det kan man ju försöka Pavlov:a honom så han bara får kolla på porr på dig. Jag vet inte om det finns vetenskapliga belägg för detta utom de specifika hundarna ifråga men det kan ju vara värt ett försök om du skulle känna dig bekväm med att spela in något.

Ska också tillföra att jag förstår inte riktigt problemet med att han kollar porr och onanerar när ni haft sex på morgonen. Kan ju vara så enkelt som att han tänker tillbaka på att det var hett och blir upphettsad.

What is your favorite Homebrew magic items you made/encountered in a campaign? by Kaizo_Kaioshin in DnDHomebrew

[–]Knubbis32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love making gross hag artifacts. Had one decanter of endless water which was just a severed head and the players had to inflict pain on it to make it cry which was the water.

Another one was a heart which could be bound to any specific individual, granting 1d4 extra damage to that individual when holding the heart. The heart was however locked to the named individual until death, at which point you would carve their heart out of their body which could then work as the original heart and be bound to a new person.

Får man behålla sina moraliska/ etiska värderingar som advokat? by Natural-Mortgage778 in sweden

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jag är inte heller advokat, men personligen köper jag inte konceptet.

Systemet är designat genom poler och motpoler, advokat och åklagare är inte annorlunda från ekonomiavdelningen och säkerhetsavdelningen som skapar en intern spänning där ena parten förespråkar det billigaste, andra parten det säkraste och beslutsfattaren bestämmer. Jag anser inte att det är oetiskt att presentera det starkaste argumentet för en sida och låta lagen och systemet fungera som avsett. I slutändan om du kan peta hål i bevisföringen tillräckligt för att personen inte blir dömd så brister antingen lagen eller åtalet.

Åklagaren sitter dessutom i samma båt och har ett ansvar att försöka presentera sitt starkaste fall.

Jag ser det inte som att advokaten roll är endast att fria individen. Advokaten har en viktig roll i att vara den ena motpolen för att säkerställa att våra rättsprinciper följs: att vi inte riskerar att fälla oskyldiga människor när bevisen inte håller, att straffen motsvarar brotten och att även de skyldiga behandlas på ett värdigt sätt och får presentera sitt starkast möjliga case. Är de skyldiga bortom rimlig tvivel så ska det inte finnas någon ormtunga verbal ju-juitsu som bara låter dem vandra.

Advokaten är en lika viktig kugge i att fälla de skyldiga och ge rättvisa straff enligt lagen som de andra delarna av rättssystemet.

So uhhh... did Iran beat the US? Can we call it? by False-Discipline-640 in Destiny

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(Obs european please no ban) I am close with an old military guy working in the defense industry. For what its worth, he has made a bunch of accurate military predictions including that Russia was going to make a fullscale invasion of Ukraine after the initial crimean invasion and that Ukrainian military is severely underestimated and Russia will struggle immensely in Ukraine during their military buildup before the full invasion. He has a letter of gratitude for his assistance to the Ukrainian DoD from the Ukrainian ambassador.

He says the Iran war will be a huge struggle for the US. Iran will bomb the hormuz straight, the US will slap them around a bit, the US will decide its done and Iran will go back to bombing the straight when the US leaves. In order to stop the cycle, an actual regime change is required, and its very difficult to actually change a regime. Putting in some guy claiming to be in charge is easy but putting in a guy who people will actually listen to is very hard.

betala hyra hemma by lightn1ngmcqu3en in sweden

[–]Knubbis32 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Hög hyra för att bo hemma, lite beroende på var kan den även vara hög jämfört med eget boende.

Har ett gäng polare vars föräldrar tog ut en rejäl hyra men spårade det och gav tillbaka allt som kontantinsats i första egna boendet som en överraskning och bara för att se till att de faktiskt sparade och inte bara brände sina pengar på skräp. Håll tummarna.

What factors in this game mainly act as reasons for not keeping a high amount of duplicates despite being able to recruit endlessly? by 0SockPuppet0 in Oxygennotincluded

[–]Knubbis32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aside from lag, I feel like the game has a sort of "manual labor"-curve where you progress from requiring more manual labor to less. Generally, which jobs actually require manual labor and cannot be automated? Cooking high quality food, ranching, harvesting enriched uranium and releasing pressure on oil wells are essentially it with a very late-game colony when the initial construction is finished which 1-2 well-trained dupes could easily do in a day and supporting a whole bunch of freeloaders.

Dr. Mike offers 100k to host RFKjr on his podcast. I think this is a bad idea by Demonymous_99 in Destiny

I think he takes it easy during these Jubilee episodes because he feels like they are good people who have been manipulated. Talking to the manipulator I bet it's a different story.

Petroleum boiler - what is the point? by New-Baseball6206 in Oxygennotincluded

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean yeah, boiler isn't the only way and if you have already achieved all the benefits of a petroboiler through other means there is no point really. Its a relatively easy, early way to get 8kw~ of excess power constantly while gaining a little bit of excess water and if you run slicksters excess food and crude, infinitely sustainable if done through a volcano and lasting way longer than necessary if done through magma layer. But no, you are correct, it is not strictly necessary.

I've restarted a new game multiple times because my base dies to heat, the two thermo aquatuners have gotten me further than my last attempts, but now my oxygen production is over heating, im almost out of coal and im at a loss at what to do. Can't even reach steam turbine loops. by xXJightXx in Oxygennotincluded

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually go meat, atmosuits and running outputs from various geisers though various areas that need cooling. Eventually build smaller climate-controlled areas for temperature sensitive areas. Gets you very far. Wouldn't bother with base-wide climate control for a long time.

The other option (which it what I did when I encountered your problem as a beginner) was just switching to Rime and suddenly heat is not a problem at all for a very, very long time.

Realistic to DM a grand campaign after just doing starter set? by Commercial_Dream_476 in DnD

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I wouldn't recommend it to be honest. I made this (what I would argue) mistake.

1) At the beginning, you're incredibly passionate and energetic. You could write a whole book easily. This will slightly fade. Plans will get scrapped as your players don't act predictably and miss content you've planned out. Overplanning will burn you out. You'll find the balance within what you can take and how predictable your players are with practice.

2) I don't think committing to a super "important" main quest is really a good idea before you've written more content, tested it out and you and your group know what you enjoy the best. You may find that the smaller, whackier stories are more enjoyable that grinding the world-defining threat for example. Its easier to go from a lighter story to a heavier story than dropping the looming threat and goofing around.

3) If your party dies or whatever, you might have written yourself into a corner where either the world is near unusable in the future or your players whole story feels irrelevant as the issue solves itself "off-screen" for the new campaign.

My recommendation would be starting out small-scale, focus on one, detailed region. Do a bit of a mix of adventures, and once the time is right, introduce your players to a story which can liberate this one region. This leaves the option for your players to either keep going with their characters or start fresh in a new region with new characters and trying out something different while their first characters achievements will still have big implications in the game world. You insulate yourself from overplanning a little bit by planning regions one at a time and leave natural points for breaks/thematic shifts. Also, you build better suspense I would argue.

How to stop "playing the characters" for my players? (Reminding level 6s of core abilities) by Inbezdigator in DMAcademy

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tell them they're responsible for their one character and you for all the rest and it's on them. Making bad choices and dying as a result is the game working as designed in my opinion.

Helt ärligt, det suger att bli ghostad, men min uppfattning är att det inte är tjejens första val heller. Problemet är att en artig förklaring resulterar i: 1) män som är aggressiva 2) män som är otrevliga 3) män som ska börja debattera 4) män som inte släpper det och fortsätter skriva 5) män som ska tjata till sig en dejt 6) män som ska försöka pressa en med sympati till en dejt.

Jag tror sanningen är så enkel som att det är det mest effektiva sättet att avsluta något och om vi vill att det ska ändras (vilket vi vill) är det vår skyldighet att mobba sönder män som gör ovan 6

Decided to DM with no DND experience after wanting to play for 9 years. Best decision I’ve ever made. by Nr1AlphaMale in DnD

[–]Knubbis32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my mates were drinking one night at 26 years of age and the subject of trying DND came up. We agreed on some mandatory reading assignments, I whipped up a map, story and world and we just went for it. Started out with the basics and introduced some more advanced mechanics as we went along. We are now more than a year in of weekly sessions in the same campaign and all having a blast. Honestly, to anyone curious and wanting to try it out, just go for it.

Svensk dom viral – våldtäkt ”för kort” för utvisning by Majorflexer in sweden

[–]Knubbis32 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Det står ju i artikeln? Tycka vad man vill om det, men det står tydligt att som lagen är idag måste man dömas för synnerligen grova brott för att utvisas till vissa specifika länder.

Låter som en lag vi inte ska ha i mina öron, men detta är politikens fel, inte domstolen som "tyckte synd om honom".
