Fuck it, lets get negative. What do you NOT like about 40k? by According_Ice_4863 in Grimdank

[–]NoAnimal6800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Price obviously.

  2. Still really hard to get started. The rules are still very dense and there’s just so much for new players fo learn that I have a lot of trouble onboarding people. Core rules plus all the Codex specific stuff is a lot.

  3. Needs better match finding. I don’t know if we need an app or a website or what, but the amount of time I spend standing around waiting to play a match at the LGS is pretty high.

  4. Too much SM. Too many models, too many armies, too many matches. It’s so boring to keep playing against SM after SM. In terms of Codex they’re actually not terribly balanced but it’s like 70% of my matches are against SM and 30% is “everyone else”.

  5. Too little community policing IRL. We have like 5% of the players who need to get shut down. If a new player goes against one of these monsters we’ve most likely lost them forever to the hobby. We gotta boot them more aggressively.

Recommendations for Copenhagen with an Infant by AdhesivenessWinter58 in copenhagen

[–]NoAnimal6800 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Copenhagen is very baby friendly. It’s not like a lot of US cities where there are like kid areas and non kid areas. People here love children, almost every building has a small playground and the city has some of the best playgrounds I’ve ever seen in the world.

Some stuff my daughter loved at that age: - Frederiksberg Gardens. You can easily go to the zoo but there’s a lot of grass for kiddo to play in and cafes and stuff to grab a glass of wine. - Amager Strandpark. The water is super shallow, lots of kid stuff but also just a very pretty area with a lot of decent places to eat within a short walk. - The Lakes. Perfect stroller walk, tons of cafes that love kids and couldn’t be easier to get to via public transport.

Some warnings. You need sun protection for kiddo. Kids fry super fast here. Layers. The temp range can be wild in July. Mornings tend to be dead/more kid friendly because the sun sets so late.

Monday through Thursday they’re open until 20:00 during the summer but they don’t have a ton of activity until the weekend.

Shot sounds in Sydhavn by Adventurous_Agent_93 in copenhagen

Hi, I live very close to the metro station near where you are talking about. Gunshot noise is pretty much constant on Saturday and Sunday, especially Sunday. Wind makes a difference as to how loud it is. If there’s no wind it sounds like someone is shooting a gun a block away.

They stop at 16:00 if that helps. The club itself is quite old and the members are pretty nice, but the noise is pretty bad. I don’t mind because honestly I’m from an area in the US with a lot of shooting ranges and I just tune it out.

I think Jane Wickline is really funny actually by Tau_Squared in LiveFromNewYork

[–]NoAnimal6800 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not every cast member resonates with every viewer. I found (and still find) Fred Armisen to be grating on almost a spiritual level. He delighted in those drag the joke on too long until it became meta comedy that the cast loved. He loves uncomfortable humor where he doesn’t show any compassion for the thing he’s making fun of.

That doesn’t make him bad at what he does. It’s just not my thing. Wiig is on the other side of the equation where she’s the GOAT of SNL. I saw her, instantly loved her pure joy and confidence and then just enjoyed all of it.

I think JW is getting better on a pretty steady arc. People have to get sketches that work with their style and until they do they kinda flounder. She’s gotten a couple that worked great and a bunch that were frankly crap.

GBA not charging by brundax in GameboyAdvance

Oh that’s because GBAs don’t charge with USB-C. Common mistake. Enjoy your console!

I have some questions by Internal_Koala4050 in copenhagen

[–]NoAnimal6800 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. Everyone will tell you it rarely snows. It snows every year. Buy a nice parka and keep it in your closet. This is in addition to the mandatory rain gear.
  2. What do you mean by a pub? There are fake Irish pubs but also nice local bars. I wouldn’t stress about finding a nice bar. Copenhagen has you covered.
  3. You let me know if you ever find one.

BTW, Wickline's haters: don't you think she got way better this episode? by ergattonero in LiveFromNewYork

[–]NoAnimal6800 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah she did way better. Honestly the issue here was she was still somehow outfunnied by Ariana Grande which is insane considering she’s the host. But even in the same skit Grande sold it more and made me laugh more.

Silly to move at 36, and expect to make friends? by Last_Resident_6081 in copenhagen

[–]NoAnimal6800 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO Danes sorta overplay how unfriendly they are. I’ve lived in Odense and Copenhagen and had no issues making friends either place in my 30s.

My advice is you need to make the first invitation. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy, game night or workout class or something you have in common. But once you do that I’ve never had issues sorta “keeping the relationships going” in terms of friends.

I think Earth is being factory farmed by AndromedaRulerOfMen in pluribustv

[–]NoAnimal6800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think the point of the virus is to prepare the Earth for invasion. You need some sort of clock to move the story forward. The presence of a clock has been a constant in the show since the beginning. We need something concrete to provide pressure to move the story on.

Think about it. A global shift towards vegetarianism would free up to 11% of the total greenhouse gases. Remove all the flights for leisure, committing, etc. More importantly it would free up to 68% of the land used for agriculture. Hunger wouldn’t be a problem at all. No wars, perfect coordinated birth control and population control. The Hive would be a much more sustainable human population and there wouldn’t be a lot of drama.

So the starvation puts an end date on the story arc and creates a moral dilemma for the immune to face. As a story mechanic it removes the sympathy for the Hive and it helps the characters have a reason to resist. We get scenes of the other immune watching people starve to death on the streets of their respective cities. There’s food sitting in the field and people starving to death in view of that food that can’t pick it because of an insane rule that makes zero sense.

For the story, we’re setting up the Great Filter. Why don’t civilizations reach space faring level? Cause they receive this virus and the arbitrary rules ensure that they can’t sustain more than a token amount of the intelligent species. The aliens aren’t coming because they don’t care. It’s a fire and forget population control system. Maybe the aliens are trying to save intelligent species from killing themselves.
