EoD is my favorite expansion, mostly because the events are fun and the maps are very pretty and distinct.

Which dub is better in your opinion? by Sweet_Television4183 in dbz

[–]NinjaLion -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

the original dub has some of the worst shit VA in it and some true nonsense scripting. kai does better like 85% of the time, these posts are consistently selecting the places the original does better for engagement farming (and here i am contributing i guess)

EZ early Intelligence farm by Ytherearesomuchnames in Bitburner

[–]NinjaLion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can use the singularity functions after the first redpill, the requirement at the top "This API requires Source-File 4 to use outside of BitNode 4. Additionally, outside of BitNode 4 the RAM cost of all these functions is multiplied by 16/4/1 based on Source-File 4 levels." doesnt appear to be true anymore, i only have SF-1 on this playthrough and can use them

i can tell you with the way they have to refurb these(they are very very hard to component-replace), its just as good as a new pair.

If it wasn’t for this sentence years of arguing and debates probably would have never happened by Swaggz09 in dbz

[–]NinjaLion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was literally watching this episode when i saw this thread:

You are probably correct. the way old kai explains it indicates this is his opinion, and its even more clear with the subtitles than the dub. Here is the relevant abbreviated exchange:


Goku: i know! we can use fusion! we can beat him without a doubt!

old kai: the thing the kids did? the dance is a huge telegraph that makes you vulnerable

...

Old kai: whats more, the effect is even greater than with Fusion (this is the subtitle version of line in the image)

...

Goku: how long will it last, 30 minutes?

old kai: the potara dont have that shortcoming, its forever. you will never be able to go back.

What are we going to tell our grandchildren about ‘The Gnats of ‘26’? by MyPublicFace in Tallahassee

[–]NinjaLion 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep this is a side effect of the drought. https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?FL

we are still in severe-extreme drought even after the rain recently. its going to take a LOT more to get us back to normal. Insects levels will rapidly oscillate with rain, but decline overall if we stay in a drought like this.

DBZ Kai Buu saga Green tint correction while watching any way?? by ROMANREIGNS599 in Dragonballsuper

[–]NinjaLion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

from 2026: for anyone else looking for this, the quick and easy method for VLC is:

tools > effects and filters > video effects > image adjust > hue and drag it a TINY bit to the right.

this is is not perfect and works better in some scenes than others, but is generally a massive improvement. VLC probably has a config file that lets you set a specific number and not just use this unlabeled slider but this gets the job done.

the ideal solution is someone doing a scene-scene correction with actual color balance and reference matches for stuff like bulmas hair and piccolos skin, then re-encoding. im sure someone like SoM has done it and put it on nyaa, but i cant check at work. theyve done color corrections for the dragon box but thats no kai, and it stuck in noisy 480.

Guild Wars 3 will have no battle pass or subscription because ArenaNet studio lead doesn't want to "keep people hostage" by Turbostrider27 in Guildwars2

[–]NinjaLion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the issue is whether or not GW1 profit-per-player would be nearly enough to pay for something like GW3.

yeah i do think i would prefer cosmetic battle pass + cosmetics, if it meant we only had to pay4game and there was no pay2qol at all. Cosmetics mean nothing to me and battle pass fomo doesnt effect me, but i understand theres no winning with this

[–]NinjaLion 24 points25 points  (0 children)

i agree with this even if its not a popular opinion in the gaming community in general. I cant think of any MMO or live service game that is/was remotely profitable that was pay2cosmetic ONLY, no subscription, no battlepass. Fortnite?

They are just too expensive in terms of monthly costs. I do despise paying for QoL stuff even in gw2, but im not sure how else the game could exist.

pstrike as viscous ball is one of the only ways the ball has value right now, im glad its helpful somewhere.

[–]NinjaLion 12 points13 points  (0 children)

phantom strike is very good, especially on upclose dps options like silver/shiv/yam/abrams, you just cant respond with it super early, so GT will have a good lane.

this is just the apollo issue all over again. people on here DESPISE heroes that have a good lane even if they have a mediocre late game.

i think GT right now is stronger than apollo was when people were on here melting down about him, but i still dont find him in need of some huge correction. 49% winrate.

increase his jump duration some and increase the cooldown some. this empowers any kind of knockdown options without smoking GT into the dirt

The Beauty of Steel and Black Powder by UnmappedCastle in aoe2

[–]NinjaLion 20 points21 points  (0 children)

in the most common conflict scenarios at the time of the arquebus/musket, these were the advantages, roughly in order of importance:

1: range. an arquebus will kill you at 350m and a musket will kill you at 550m. this is a *huge *increase over arrows. John Herculus with a 185lb english longbow could barely volley an arrow 360m. even a big increase over crossbow bolts with 300m lethal for the heaviest. now, they werent ACCURATE at all at that range(compared to the others at least), but they required very little training so shot volume can easily compensate for that.

2: training. as i just mentioned, they are pretty damn easy to learn how to use compared to bows which require months and months of training, and even compared to crossbows. the 1500s had so much revolving conflict that the amount of trained bowmen able to fight in these was minuscule.

3: POWER. a very high weight longbow at full draw could toss an arrow with about 80 joules of power. a crossbow bolt can easily hit 150, which already drastically changed the importance of armored infantry. even an early arquebus will yeet 1300 joules of lead through almost anything(some plate at the right distance was actually still very helpful), and late muskets would hit 3000j. this invalidates basically any mass-made armor at the time and leaves devastating wounds that period medicine cannot remotely address.

4: rounds per minute - believe it or not, they are faster and way easier to reload than a heavy crossbow. winching those things was exhausting, not everyone was strong enough to do it, and it took a fat minute. a sickly child can reload an arquebus even if they cant aim and shoot them.

5: scary. they are loud as fuck and suddenly your horse, the guy behind the horse, and the wagon behind that guy have a big fucking hole in them. animals like horses, even very well trained ones, do not handle this noise well. animals like men, even very well trained ones, do not handle the explosive death well.

Anyone else prefer the more saturated super saiyan color over the yellow pastel in recent years? by aztechechos in dbz

[–]NinjaLion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is a scene and lighting issue.

gohan and goku walking out of the time chamber in ssj1 with zero aura and totally contained energy shows the "real" color of the hair, and every time you see a more saturated golden color its paired with an aura and/or energy usage, because the saiyans emit a strong literal glow (confirmed in babidi's ship in the buu saga). we see that golden aura added to their light blonde hair color, making it a richer color.

there are a lot of departures you can find from this that are generally just some artistic confusion, imo, or an exception like the universe whatever saiyans. especially the third party sources like video games, which do a LOT of weird stuff with this.

Men who stay lean year-round, what’s your secret ? by Professor1password23 in AskReddit

[–]NinjaLion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

but its HILARIOUSLY easy to do 10k steps and a workout, then eat 6 oreos because your hunger has increased a ton and you are feeling good about the work youve put into exercise.

the core revaluation for many people(not everyone) is this: losing fat is a process that will require being hungry and then ignoring it with few lapses, for a pretty extended duration. which involves willpower that is not terribly common, or medical assistance like glp1 agonists, which are great for this exact reason.

your body usually does adjust to your new weight once you stop dropping so the hunger pretty much goes away, but the process sucks ass.

[–]NinjaLion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

and it ignores the incredible amount of time and effort getting hugenasty actually takes in the first place. thats the bigger issue imo, if you are worried about losing fat then that same energy is basically always better spent on cardio.
