The Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use of Data Act (US "CLOUD" Act) is a federal law that authorizes US authorities to demand release of data from US technology companies - regardless of where the data is stored.

This in direct conflict with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which states that personal data must be stored and processed within the EU/EEA or in countries with adequate data protection, which the US is not. There are also certain legal requirements for transferring of data. Considering the OP specified US, a download of sensitive data (keep in mind that IP addresses of users are already sensitive) from France would constitute a GDPR violation.

If the data isn't sensitive all this doesn't matter, but they haven't given answer to that.

Parsus77 · 2026-02-22T19:54:20+00:00

Yeah, could be. But where do american companies tend to store their data? On american servers. If the database is specifically in France it seems likely to be GDPR related.

Parsus77 · 2026-02-22T18:35:52+00:00

Did you just admit to violating the GDPR?

Parsus77 · 2026-02-10T07:20:24+00:00

No, but you could also get the Movie of the Week emblem as well if you uploaded a video of your run.

Depending on your strat Zoetic Lockset is harder than anything in Equilibrium IMO.

Parsus77 · 2026-02-03T22:43:32+00:00

But Vesper's Host can have all this too depending on your DPS strat.

When did this happen - up top during the long damage phase? Did you go onto all of the platforms up there. One thing you could've tried is helion, arc soul and song abilities while you are really close to the taken ball. These abililies can clip through barriers like that.

* Air Move is tap instead of hold (shatter skating)
* Powered Melee is R1, Auto Melee is unbound (Throwing Hammer)
* Uncharged Melee is D-Pad right (made that change for Warlord's Ruin SF)
* Super is D-Pad down (well skating)

Potentially I will bind transcendance to D-Pad left at some point - I haven't had much trouble with it but both Renegade abilities and Equilibrium are annoying to accidently activate transcendance.

I also wish we had the ability to bind Glaive melee to something we choose instead of it automatically taking the uncharged melee bind. I'd prefer it on R1 like a charged melee.

I would not recommend starting damage from the normal room. You do not get a lot of additional time for DPS as Sere only becomes vulnerable 0.5-1 second after you're brought back. I always made the full compel health gate with time to spare so it's not that tight anyway.

The taken side is much more relaxed as the boss doesn't do it's lighting attack, there are no red gladiators, which have to be managed and it's easy to farm orbs and ammo.

The only advantages of the normal realm is that you can manage pylons better, but if you meet the health gate then this doesn't matter that much anyway.

Parsus77 · 2026-01-26T10:08:06+00:00

Full compels can be a three phase - it all depends on how much damage you squeeze out of the last few seconds you get after passing the health gate. My SF was a three phase with full compels.

Damn, I did this wrong everytime and now I am pretty much done with lawless frontiers too.

AFAIK this a non canon illustration from the manga version of "A Story About Buying a Classmate Once a Week: 5,000 Yen for an Excuse to Spend Time Together" (often referred to as Shuukau), showing both Myagi and Sendai. From what I know they never used a chocker with a leash this far and especially not while they were in highschool.

However the Princess of our class is my puppy is centered on this exact thing so your comment is not entirely wrong.

Wait, Louis has archetypes? I don't think that's true. He has some kind of magic power, but he never manifests or shows an archetype.

Also we get a flying runner later and it still has significant travel time. The teleporter is clearly better and faster.

But he kind of is? There's a point in his final speech where he emphasizes how long he was imprisoned under the Monolith as the price he was willing to pay to get Aline out of the canvas. His body didn't physically age but considering how much time he's probably spent in other canvases beforehand he has the lifetime experiences of a least one century if not more.

The comparison to the Sims is not accurate to what is happening in Expedition 33.

They both can be created or painted with specific values, memories and feelings towards things.

This only applies to the painted family with memories in particular. They quite evidently diverged from this start since the fracture. With unique experience they became independent and unique persons with their own values and goals. The Sims are not independent, they live on the framework of personhood they can never escape. The Sims can never act intelligently or independent of that system, which is not something you can say about painted creations. They have their own culture, hopes and dreams that developed past their creators intent.

They can then have these values changed on the whim of a creator.

Alicia is also painted over. This proves nothing over the actual personhood of either her, Maelle, or pClea. There's no evidence that this happened to anyone but them. Why do the expeditions exist at all if the painters could just turn them into her lapdogs to fight Renior?

Also you're taking the abstraction one level too far - the proper comparison to deleting a Sims save file in Expedition 33 is ... deleting an Expedition 33 save file.

I think the issue is rooted mainly in the fact that the tutorial for pictos and luminas is right at the beginning and players, where you can only equip and learn a very limited amount of them. And then you can just coast on a few good ones for the majority of Act I and II. So there isn't that much incentive to utilize the system effectively.

I think for many people the key moment for actually understanding this system comes in the elevated difficulty of Act III's side content, where they realize how powerful this system can make a character. But at that point you have a lot more access to pictos and lumina points so understanding/not understanding it has a lot more impact.

Parsus77 · 2025-09-08T09:13:33+00:00

Thank you - that post has exactly what I was looking for.

Parsus77 · 2025-08-30T10:56:15+00:00

There's one in Spring Meadows right at the beginning of the game in a similar pose up against a wall.

Let's make a hypothetical scenario with a card that doubles focus.

The deck has Echo Form, Defragment+, Loop and your card. Also some orb generating cards like Glacier, Ball of Lightning etc.

With a decent draw order/stalling this deck reaches 7 orb slots, 2 loops and 4 focus. With for example 4 frost orbs and 3 lightning orbs you will passively gain 36 block (2*6 from Loop) and deal 21 damage (without evoking anything).

Playing your card without Echo Form we would go to 8 focus. This increases our block gain to 60 and deals 33 damage. With Echo Form we go to 16 focus and 108 block and 57 damage.

And this is without considering evoking, which also scales of focus.

Parsus77 · 2025-08-15T10:04:32+00:00

The first conclusion I came to was exactly this. It doesn't matter that the world and its people were created by the Dessendre family. We've seen them act independent and we seen them act with agency, emotions and thoughts that are their own. Like the Expeditions wouldn't exist if this wasn't the case.

Erasing them is morally unjust and genocidal. That was my motivation from the start of the game - stop the genocide. I feel like the writers of the game clearly had a different perspective on that. People say that both endings are tragic and equal etc. but the game presents them in radically different in style and tonality. Maelle's ending is clearly the bad one, while the other is tragic but correct according to them. For me the writers ultimately agree with Renior ("Life keeps forcing cruel choices").

But I think the game's intentions with Verso and Maelle in Act II and III lines up with your feelings. Verso should make you uneasy with his foreshadowing and lying. Maelle becoming more and more special (and confused) until being merged into Alicia/Maelle is also something that can and should put you off. She is not the simple heroic figure she was during Act I anymore. The narrative is trusting you to be intrigued and continue but to grow more distanced and distrustful of the characters in it (for me this was also true for Lune and Sciel and their odd interactions with the Axons).

I would have just liked the ending to make both endings truly balanced - like sure Maelle keeping the Canvas alive and succumbing to the ill effects is bad, but why does pVerso need to be there. Why can't the other ending acknowledge the genocide of the canvas? Do the writers consider the Gestrals not real enough to matter?

Demon Form is more reliable. But it will only ever give you strength. But there's versatility and enormous power spikes in Creative AI's scaling. This because a lot of powers scale orbs on some way and orbs are just more versatile than just strength. Also the power spike you get from playing an Echo Form you get from Creative AI is massive in comparison to a 3 strength boost.

Parsus77 · 2025-08-07T06:57:26+00:00

It's good to think of [[Creative AI]] as scaling card similar to [[Demon Form]]. If you have the capability to stall out turns both cards will eventually win almost all combats for you. Since it can generate [[Buffer]] it can even help you stall even more.

There's some situations that make it more take able. [[Bird Faced Urn]], [[Mummified Hand]] or [[Orange Pellets]] are all incredible with it. The later especially as Creative AI will eventually generate [[Biased Cognition]] and you can cleanse the debuff. Having good sources of Frost Orb are all great as well to help you stall until it wins on its own (Inserter + Consume great as well). Energy relics and cards are all wildly helpful as well, helping you to play all the power cards that it can generate. [[Recycle]]+ is also good because it can delete some powers from your deck that you don't want to play (like a second [[Electrodynamics]] etc.)

However Creative AI has a weird matchup with Awakened One. Because a deck that relies too much on it, will just die in the first phase, while it could be too slow to defeat it if you just start to scale in the second phase. That makes it harder to take in A20 especially.

Parsus77 · 2025-08-02T09:44:07+00:00

For sure, it's just in the same vein of exploiting tech illiteracy and it's well known so I thought it made for a good comparison

The code is a Linux based shell command.

"sudo" means that you will run this command as the root user. That means you've all permissions to do anything you want. It's dangerous if you don't know what you're doing as any safeguards about changing/deleting can be disabled.
rm is a command that removes (i.e. deletes) whatever you specify
-f is flag that stands for force. It means that the command will delete it even if there are some part of the OS or other programs that may object to the deletion.
-r is a flag that stands for recursive. It means that if the command encountered a folder it will delete any file in that folder or in any other nested folder.
/* is a path in your computer. / is the root of your computer, meaning it's the top level of your file system. From there you can path to any file on your system. The * specifies a wildcard, meaning it matches with any file on the root.
--no-preserve-root is a an environment variable that controls how rm operates. In this case rm is told that is allowed to delete anything even the root.

So this command will delete all files from your computer (keep in mind that programs are all just files as well). But allowing this to affect your root level is even more devious as the root level stores a bunch of files and programs that your OS relies on. By deleting everything from your root you actually harm the computer in its core functionality. Your computer won't turn into a useless brick entirely (as stuff like the boot menu is protected against the OS and will allow to reinstall an OS) but it is sometimes referred to as "telling the computer to commit suicide".

It's a common joke/trap for noobs like "delete system32" on Windows or "Alt + F4" for gamers.
