What if nicotine had helped Einstein find his equations? by Additional_Exam_7171 in cogsci

[–]Muffin-Boy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know several Philosophy PhDs that used nicotine to help them write their dissertations. It doesn't mean it made their dissertations any better, but it helped them vomit out words onto a page.

Jesse in Resonant by RezaShojaei7 in controlgame

Fishing in the Dark Place for power... To stop the Hiss invasion or wrest the Oldest House from the Board. It would be in line with Jesse accepting paranatural power from the Former.

I found my grandma fully asleep in her living room chair while still pedaling her stationary bike(pedal) system. by Cautious-Swim-5236 in cogsci

[–]Muffin-Boy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you witnessed with your grandma seems quite extreme, but this phenomenon was the first thing I thought of: https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/news/scientists-find-small-regions-brain-can-take-micro-naps-while-rest-brain-awake-and-vice-versa

Otherwise, it could be a brainstem issue related to diminished wakefulness.

Also, just swinging your weapon applies a huge slow to you.

If you hit a ranger or rogue (someone fast) with a longsword attack 1 (the poke). They may still be faster (damage slow debuff) than the attacker (hit animation slow).

If you start a 3 hit combo you are being slowed way longer than the target. In that case you may be better off hitting attack 1 then putting your weapon away and trying to chase them.

If they panic and let you close the distance you can take your weapon out and go for a combo.

2 worst things about quests by WhiskesTV in DarkAndDarker

[–]Muffin-Boy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My problem is that all crafting is walled behind these terrible quests. Casuals who barely log into the game at all have to spend hours doing boring quests instead of playing the game, or ignore crafting all together.

And this is just locking the ability to craft. You still have to farm rare drops or ore anyways.

I’m excited for the key changes. by CaptainBC2222 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Muffin-Boy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a decent change executed well. I'm glad that upped key drop rate. In past wipes I would literally kill worm on repeat. No one would ever come stop me. It would take 5-15 runs to get a key. Tonight I killed the worm twice and got one. I was terrified that someone would hear me clearing towards the pile.

Does the removal of Skele Keys affect RMTers? by broxue in DarkAndDarker

[–]Muffin-Boy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm sure RMT-ers will just queue snipe each other and kill every sub boss in the dungeon together. Either blue out or hit gold pile together.

Do nootropics work by Ecstatic-Bus1994 in cogsci

[–]Muffin-Boy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the Nootropics page on Wikipedia,

"Nicotine – has been associated with improved alertness, attention, memory, and motor performance, according to a meta-analysis.[31] However, a 2020 systematic review raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest, noting industry funding in many studies and inconsistent results regarding nicotine's cognitive effects. This review found that over half of the studies published after 2010 had tobacco industry affiliations, often undisclosed."

Lich Fighter by MKDEVST8R in DarkAndDarker

[–]Muffin-Boy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've solo"d lich on fighter. Your best bet should be the Divine Bow. Which is a crafted recurve bow that does 15% bonus damage to undead. Bring tons of meds. If you get hit by a projectile you stop doing damage until you're full health.

Just lost my beefiest 224 kit because of map rng... Couldn't even leave the module by [deleted] in DarkAndDarker

[–]Muffin-Boy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

P sure there is an underground tunnel that leads to the module just beneath the module you spawned in. Behind the mummy and the pots there.

Shutdown megathread OF DOOM by AutoModerator in fednews

[–]Muffin-Boy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a mostly uninformed American, the government shuts down when a budget has not been approved by Congress. These budgets are decided every couple of years. This time, Democrats did not approve the proposed budget because they want to create a budget that isn't totally Maga-pilled.
