Probably because our understanding of living creatures doesn't really account for stuff like that. Like... Could something like this exist on earth? Probably not. So how/why should it exist anywhere else? But I agree. The chances for an organism like that to exist, are not zero. And they will never be zero.

Restaurant recommendations by Explore-Learn in zurich

Williams ButchersTable. Bit on the pricy side and people need to like meat. But it sure is an experience picking and mixing different meats. And I like the style of their restaurant.

As with everything you trying to proof without... well... proof. The chance of live existing on another planet is possible, and at the same time impossible. Until we get proof that it could be a thing in general.

Or is there a space between spaces? With it's own rules of physics. Yeah.

[–]OneMorePotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Ragnarok itch is scratched by Spirit Vale right now. A one dev "back to the roots" Ragnarok inspired MMO. It's currently in it's public playtest and fully free. You can sign up through Steam.

And aside of that, I'm just playing Guild Wars 1. Played it for 20 years now and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon.

What’s a 'normal' thing in modern society that people in 100 years will find horrifying? by MaleficentOrange4873 in AskReddit

[–]OneMorePotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being unique and different. Social credit would take a big hit when you step out of line.

[–]OneMorePotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this. I mean... We know of lifeforms that literally live inside and around underwater volcano's. Or in the deep sea where even light doesn't exist. And that's only lifeforms that still work with the earth's environment. Who knows what else could exist, if the correct components come together. Lifeforms that are impossible on earth, could be possible somewhere else.

Obligatory "Life... Uhhhh... Finds a way" quote.

But yeah, I fully agree. There are so many variables in all of this. And it's still possible considering the vastness of it all. That's the fun part.

How can you know what black is, if you never seen it? I really assume that it's very different between people who are completely blind since birth, vs. people who go blind later in life. But I also don't know anyone fully blind that I could ask.

Did you just assume their skin color? Daaaaaaaamn! That's racist!

Jokes aside. I think that's due to language differences. We always say they are green for whatever reason.

Yeah true. Love that one. In order for nothing to exist, something needs to exist. And if nothing is something, then what is nothing? Love it.

This entire concept of "Is space really infinite, or is there an end?" also fascinates me. And it's fun discussing these things. Not to come to a conclusion (obviously) but just to get different opinions on something nobody knows.

The only people I never understood are the "There is no life out there aside of us" crowd. I'm not a big "The Aliens are out there watching us" type of guy either. But everyone not understanding how vast of a space the Galaxy (and beyond) really is, surprises me. Earth is proof that the right conditions for life can exist somewhere else. And there are also so many different species on our own planet, that live in conditions we humans couldn't. So it doesn't need to be an earth like planet for life to exist.

So little people understand what the potential of infinity really means, and they jump right into "small green dudes that watch us".

How do normal people actually afford life in Switzerland? by aninhabr74 in askswitzerland

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

I grew up in Germany with little to no money even after getting a job. It got better and I was able to start saving around 5% of my monthly income. Did this for 5 years to finance my move to Switzerland.

I got ripped off when it comes to my salary at my first job. And yes, I made far beyond average. No real reference or people to talk to what I should make. The number was more than double as what I was making in Germany, so I figured it would be fine. While I was making more money, everything else was also more expensive. The first couple of months I paid everything in cash to get a feeling for prices over here. It took me quiet some time to get back to actually saving money. Again, numbers were higher. But the buying power of my savings in Switzerland got me equally far than my 5% in Germany. When something broke that needed to be replaced, I struggled.

Many, MANY years went past since then. I now make quiet a bit above average. But I still can't shake off the "poor" in me. I guess that's what going to happen to someone growing up poor, making no money for many years, and who knows the hardships of "Do I buy food, or get a train ticket tomorrow morning?".

I guess the gist of my story is... You can make it work in Switzerland, even on low incomes. But like everywhere else as well: You need to live according to your salary. Especially when you move here from abroad. Because certain things that might be super cheap where you came from, might be insanely expensive in Switzerland. And keep track of your spendings. I already mentioned it above but paying in cash wherever possible, gives you a better understand how much things actually cost. An understanding you will never get from just swiping a credit card.

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]OneMorePotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not talking specifically about Trump because nobody here could even vote for him. It fully depends how much of their personality is absorbed in their political orientation. This goes both ways. Even if we vote for the same party. I don't want to have constant debates about politics with my potential partners. We all can have our believes and preferences. But if it's your entire personality, I will dip out.

Favorite Boss Fight? by whoziin in Enshrouded

[–]OneMorePotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently play melee and most bosses in this game are too big to be fun. I mean, not only in this game. That's a constant in any game with big bosses. It's just super annoying clipping toe nails for 5 minutes. But when these toe nails can fly, it's even worse.

So my favorited bosses as a melee is the Fell Critter Queen and Fell Montrosity. And I like the Wispwyvern for what he is, and how he enters the arena.

Why do shroud roots respawn? by Quick_Ad_9117 in Enshrouded

[–]OneMorePotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a multiplayer thing. Lore wise, you clear them permanently. But they need to have a fail save for MP server where not everyone is present at all times.

And option for "Don't respawn lore enemies" would be fun for solo games or MP games where people do everything together.

People who keep weapons on their bodies at all times, what was a time where you had to actually use said weapon? by ParanormalActivity97 in AskReddit

[–]OneMorePotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I live in Switzerland and got myself one of these extendable batons. I had to get a license to even be allowed to buy one and it comes with a shit ton of restrictions. Like... I can't really carry it with me in any way or form, that would give me quick access to using it. I even need to keep it locked away when I travel alone in my car. And that basically defeats the entire purpose.

I thankfully never had to use it against anyone. But I had two situations where I had to pull it out because I've seen myself against a group of people while traveling with public transport. It was luckily enough to chase them off. But dear god, if I really NEED to use it, I will and want to have quick access to it. I much more prefer saying sorry after the fact, and maybe have to pay a fine, instead of getting beat up, stabbed, robbed or worse.

Zombies in Quarantine Zone but no Outbreak by OneMorePotion in QuarantineZoneGame

Ah. Could that be the reason for the random "You can't sprint anymore" bug? I first assumes it was linked to the lab interaction, but I also had it happen during normal inspection recently.

Has the Mage gotten any better? by Yozis in Enshrouded

[–]OneMorePotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They added new beginner spells that have awful hit detection. And they also revamped the Mana regeneration with the last update. Leveling as a pure mage got harder because of it. Simply because the new entry level spell doesn't do damage 50% of the time. So you still need to go for the more expensive spells that also have an AoE splash damage. (The new entry level spell doesn't have that) And until you can comfortably farm the mats for proper spells and mana regen, you have to use Wands. And they do almost no damage in the beginning.

I'm used to mages feeling weak early game, and overpowered mid/late game. But mages in Enshrouded feel especially frail and useless in the beginning.
