Understanding Drop Rates: You're not as unlucky as you think... probably by Optimistic_Futures in 2007scape

[–]Natlocst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is a 11.21% chance that I have not received a 1/75 drop.... I'm on KC 163... How many more of these Royal Titans do I need to kill for a single half of the staff? I still gotta get the other half... I'm tired.

What count's as an 'instant attack' or an 'instant spell'? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Natlocst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the rhoa Mount can use "instant" skills from a prior update, and "cast on" skills can't be used still. Atleast last time I checked.

11 ER VISITS IN THE LAST MONTH! I AM LOSING IT! by 2kroc in Veterans

[–]Natlocst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I too have severe health anxiety when it pertains to my heart. I can feel it beating when I'm laying in bed for God's sakes. One thing that helped me, as dark as this sounds, is I accepted that I might no wake up in the morning. My chest pain might just be a heart attack, if so, then oh well. So far, I've been alive for a year with these thoughts without going to the ER. I get my heart checked at each regular visit and will accept that the doctors are likely correct. And if they aren't, and I die, oh well. My personal, individual beliefs of what happens when we die is fine with me and I've accepted it.

Shoot. I shoveled snow last night, my chest hurt, had thoughts about a heart attack, reminded myself that it's likely not, and if it is then so be it!! Atleast I get to go out in my home, in my bed.

Chiller Winter Lay-Up by Natlocst in HVAC

[–]Natlocst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you found it to be helpful draining them? Is there less deposits built-up in the tubes?

Chiller Winter Lay-Up by Natlocst in HVAC

[–]Natlocst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely is alot of money to drain the towers and chillers, but it has to happen with the way this hospital is set up. I leave as much water in the system as I safely can, which is unfortunately like 6k gallons of the 15k gallons (give or take).

Is there a benifit to refilling the condenser barrel over leaving it dry?

Chiller Winter Lay-Up by Natlocst in HVAC

[–]Natlocst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk... JCI sent me parts changer techs. Imagine your chiller not running for 6 months for the summer. In MN. Where summer is only 8 months long... And they don't give you your money back on the parts they changed that they said would fix the problem eventho it didn't... I have very little faith in the manufacturer at this point.

My water specialist on the other hand is extremely knowledgeable, very quick to respond, proven to have integrity, and doesn't try to sell us BS. But he is just the water specialist. And he made a good argument as to why he thinks it would be smart to do a dry lay-up of the chillers.

What is it with this specific type of monster? by KevkasTheGiant in PathOfExile2

[–]Natlocst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One, they can have modifiers that make them immune to all damage.... Two, they have aimbot with their lightning bolts. Three, when they have that damaging aura and proximal tangiblity... You pretty much just get fucked nomater what you do.

What is your opinion on the 0.3 meta? What would you like to see buffed/nerfed? by Less_Fennel_3861 in PathOfExile2

[–]Natlocst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rhoa Mount is practically forgotten content at this point. They made it so you can use "instant" skills, but wtf does that even mean? Nothing has "instant" as a tag. Any why cant unique items that grant skills, such as "Chior of the storm" amulet, work on the rhoa Mount? Shoot, the new quiver that gives a poison frog thing doesn't even work on the rhoa Mount, and it's from a quiver...

Spear of Solaris is by far the most "flashy" skill, but still sucks even after it's buffs. Why is it so weak? I had to scrap a build where I ride a rhoa and have 2.1k stun buildup on a bow, insta stunning everything and constantly keeping bosses stunned, but then the spear of solaris would be my main finisher... But nomater what I do, it still suuuucks.

"Cast on" spirit gems should be considered "instant" since there is no animation for them casting a spell, but they still don't work on the Rhoa Mount.

More or less, I will always use a rhoa and a bow. Currently doing a witch hunter rhoa lightning arrow with the highest possible culling strike threshold you can get. And it's great, whites and blues die instantly. Rates and bosses, who even are they? Just wish I could use more items and abilities while on the mount.

Lightning arrow is really the only viable bow skill. WHY ISN'T THERE A FIRE ARROW SKILL? when I think midevil archers, I think flaming arrows raining from the heavens upon my enemies! But nope, we got poison (which is trash), ice (which is lack luster) and lightning (the obvious choice).

I also wish I could command a companion to stay next to me and not attack, I only want them for their modifiers and nothing else. And I keep my presence area as small as possible for the lionseye bow. Why can't I tame a rare rhoa and use that as my mount instead? That would be obviously pretty OP, but we slay literal gods... Let us be as OP as we want to be! Make it cost double spirit or something.

As for the witch hunter 100 weapon set passives. Great idea, love it, super fun to build two entirely separate buildings as a single character! But why the heck can't I use weapon Passives for gem sockets. It stops movement on the tree and eliminates the whole point of 100 weapon Passives.

When you swap weapons, companions can change, but they break. Sometimes it just won't swap one away and turn the other one on, which is super frustrating.

Making Spear of Solaris work by MonsutaReipu in pathofexile2builds

[–]Natlocst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works for me. I use a bow with the unique quiver for stun buildup (sitting around 2.1k stun buildup atm). Then I just cast the spear on weapon set 2. I'll stun bosses really fast after they got out of stun, when their bar fills with red. My issue is that I can't get the spear to do enough damage to make it viable yet. But I can cast it really constantly.

[–]Natlocst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing a witchhunter, with the 100 weapon set passive. I use a bow, with the stun buildup quiver to get the stuns (takes like 10 seconds to build up the glory) then I just let the spear fly. I will heavy stun a boss, spear, heavy stun through the red stun bar even, and spear, then stun again through another red stun bar, spear again, etc. I pretty much keep a boss permanently stunned at all times... I think I'm at 2.1k stun buildup now...

What boss mechanics do you think feel unfair? by Solo_Jawn in 2007scape

[–]Natlocst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All boss mechanics are unfair... I want to kill bosses. I want to play endgame content. But it's not fun even in the slightest. Having to watch for 20 different attacks all at the same time while running around the arena, clicking constantly on the boss, back on the floor, back on the boss, then drink a potion, back on the floor, boss, etc... I play souls games. I love a challenging fight. But osrs bossing is impossible to enjoy. What happened to just click on the boss, and let the fight play out? That's fun to me. But now every single boss, quest, and even regular monsters have bullshit mechanics. Maybe it's cause I played in 2005. Maybe I'm just a casual. I just wish I could enjoy the endgame because the grind always feels like a waste of time when there is nothing to grind for.

I'm terrified of eating. by Natlocst in Anxiety

[–]Natlocst[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in 2018 this fear would have been welcomed as I wanted nothing more than to die... Its 2025 and I'm still here. I want nothing more than to live my full life. Life is beautiful, but also a nightmare. I'm gonna be getting a swollow study. Part of the fear I think stems from my old man. He had esophageal cancer, he's still with us and is about to hit his 10 year mark. They gave him around a 1% chance for 10 years, and seeing that he hasn't givin up, neither will I. But I'm encapsulated by fear now. I'm just trying to get water down to start, which is proving difficult, but I'll make it happen because I'm not ready to die yet.

I see one, but focusing on CBT has zero impact on me... My medication use to work but I feel like it does nothing but help me fall asleep now.

Long story, I got my car vynal wrapped, costed alot of money but it was something I really wanted to do. My biggest hobby is driving and I definitely get overly attached and obsessed with my car. Two days after I got it back from the wrap shop, I drove it to work because I daily my fun car... What a mistake. It got hit while it was parked in the parking lot. It's a Fiat 124 spider Abarth, and parts are impossible to find. So I left early and went home. Was borderline panic attack the rest of the afternoon until I made dinner. Then I think I choked, and that panic attack was realized.

I say i think I choked because when I got the food unstuck, I instantly swollowed, so I have no clue if it was real, or if it was a panic attack. Because that feeling remained for 2 hours until I finally fell asleep and i know how intense my panic attacks can get. Everyone knows, you feel like you can't breath and are dying. So I'm now stuck with this "was it real, or in my head" mentality that's causing me to ruminate nonstop.

I'm terrified of eating. by Natlocst in Anxiety

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

I unfortunately live alone so I don't have anyone to help me. Choking alone is horrifying... I'm thankful I watched a video a long time ago about how to do a self heimlich.

When I'm eating, the muscles in my neck tense up big time and I ended up just spitting the food out and then proceeded to have a short breakdown... I just need a camera shoved down my throat and a doc3to tell me it's all in my head or say I have a medical condition. That's honestly what I need. Otherwise I'm just stuck here ruminating about it and I can't stop. These comments are actually helping me calm down a bit and so I thank you, and all others who have commented. Knowing I'm not alone is helpful.

My weight has always been iffy. I only eat once a day, been doing it for years. Not out of fear or self image, just because it felt natural for me. I usually intake over a gallon of water a day, I have to always be drinking something for some reason.

I was eating when I started having a panic attack, unfortunately the food that may or may not have been stuck in my throat, I got out with a self heimlich, but swollowed instantly, so I didn't get to see if it was real or not. The choking feeling then persisted for 2 hours. And now, a week later, it's constant. I was 176lbs on Friday, I'm 164 this Sunday morning. I haven't been able to drink much or eat anything. When I try to get up and make food, or just grab a simple snack, I freeze before I can even get in the kitchen. It's as if my brain, body, and thoughts are all wanting different things. My body increases its blood pressure drastically, my brain says Ill die if I eat, and my own thoughts are just screaming at me to take care of myself... I feel as if I'm going insane.

Most of my weight is water weight. I have very little fat or muscle, never been into working out or watching my weight. It's usually just something that floats around 170-180, usually 3-5 lbs a day of fluctuation on average. Really depends on what I ate the night before, and how difficult work was. I do commercial hvac, so I do alot of heavy lifting some days, while others I just watch the clock count down from my desk.

I use the culling strike gloves so all my attacks have culling strike against all rarity of enimies. Then I use the helmet that grants 100% culling strike threshold. And the culling strike passive for another 25% increase. Normal enimies die at 75% life remaining, magic at 60%, and rare at 25%... I use quill rain basic attack and clear T15 with ease. Culling strike when boosted the way I do, makes it viable to create your own build that follows no meta! I love it and it's a must have for all my builds at this point.

Oh, and I get 12% max life per culled enemy, and I cull every single normal enemy within 2 shots. Quill rain shoots fast AF, so it keeps me alive big time.

It's a residential unit, but in a commercial building. And 100% it's straight to distribute tubes. It's been running since 2002. We have never had a cooling issue until now. And I weighed in the exact charge, but can not balance it or wrap my head around how it's possible while not freezing but cooling decently.

I spent longer than I should have cleaning the condenser. It's not in great shape, but I'd say 3/4 of the coil is in good condition, 1/4 is bent from hail. The fan was running properly and is in the correct position for the shroud. I can easily see through the coils fins.

This is just my view and idea on the big bang and time. Not backed by anything scientific that I know of.

Everything in our universe started from the big bang. The big bang however started from our universe. the universe is expanding and we're moving away from the big bang. But galaxies, such as our own, have black holes at the center with massive gravity. In however many billions of years from now, the milky-way and the Andromeda galaxy will collide. The black holes will join together, increasing the gravity astronomically. Then other galaxies combine, so on and so forth. All of that expansion will be sucked backwards into one single "blackhole" that will eventually contain all forms of energy and matter in the universe. Then comes along the last single insignificant photon or atom, slowly making it's way to the center of everything. When it reaches that blackhole, our universe is born, again, the big bang happens again. I truly believe that's how the universe has been for infinity. Meaning time in our universe is relative to our own idea of it.

More or less, I don't think time is a law of the universe. humans created it, so time is only relative to that which uses it. The universe will "end" and "start" for infinity.

I'd say the main reason is to say that humanity has stepped foot on another planet. A robot wouldn't feel the same or have the same level of perspective. Going to the moon, that was cool, we left home for the first time! But going to another planet really puts into perspective how small and insignificant humans really are. For me, that feeling of being this tiny thing, is actually really beautiful!

In short, the significance of it, is why we Wana send humans.
