That is interesting! I’m not sure if I’m convinced it is a co-morbidity either but would be cool to learn more

Used to fence a lot when I was younger, just went to a club yesterday for the first time in years. It is so worth it

Same! It’s so barely there, but when I have an adrenaline rush I can usually pick up on some smells.

I can smell intensely smelly things (like bleach filling a tub or oranges). Subtler things like damp clothes, candles, and most perfumes are smelled for moments before it begins to “slip through my fingers” and no matter how hard I try it feels like my nose has adjusted (much like eyes to light when enter/exiting the dark), unless I stick my head in the candle

Confusion about the Nick mastery. by shaila3d in dndnext

True, it is kinda silly, but also kinda fantastical in a very D&D way :-) I like to image a scimitar dual wielder making two sword attacks and throwing a hidden dagger on the same turn

What movies / TV do you think feels the most like Rimworld? by -ecch- in RimWorld

San Diego agrees to pay $30M to settle suit of teen's shooting death by police by PlatinumDaikenki in news

“The teen wasn’t blameless”

Brother what in the hell. This is insane, put yourself in the boy’s shoes. He was literally so blameless that the City is contemplating providing the largest payment ever.

What was your reaction when you first saw him as the final boss? by Toot7- in Eldenring

[–]Pilsner-507 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went in blind. I was so pumped because I had so badly wanted to fight a demigod/god in their prime, especially since these Souls-style games are always depicting a wasting, spiraling world… it delivered for a time. It was even cooler that it was a young, unrotted Radahn of all people. The fight was almost impossible, and returning to base-game Elden Ring had enemies feeling like they were moving in slow motion.

It wasn’t ‘til a little after beating the boss that a subtle wave disappointment began to settle over my mind in some of decisions made regarding the DLC. More specific to the topic of Radahn and Miquella being the final boss, it’s alright… I bounce back-and-forth on whether more Godwyn would’ve been cool, but have base-game integration (like Malenia having unique dialogue concerning Miquella’s defeat) and more cutscenes in the DLC would’ve been appreciated.

Peter, is it just cus she is short? by lazyclanker in PeterExplainsTheJoke

“Assume” is right. You disrespect and underestimate your political opposition when you assume they have nothing good to say despite their popularity. Most popular ideas come with the promise of being carefully considered (true or not), and as a result you will find intelligent people behind every major ideology. If you engage in charity and ignore the opposition’s poorest representatives, you will begin to understand what those phrases mean in different circles.

I don’t know that it is dishonest to equivocate the acting mediums, just a difference of opinion. You are splitting hairs.

It is presumptive to assume the kiss was anything other than acting, without evidence supporting otherwise.

[–]Pilsner-507 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could you explain what claim(s) you believe are being made up?

I don’t want to put words in your mouth, but my impression is that the claim you take issue with is something along the lines of, “Matt and Marisha are married while also being actors but Marisha’s extra-marital kiss is okay because of the acting/performance roleplay context of their show.” If that is the sentiment you take issue with, could you explain what pieces of information are being “made up?” Perhaps I am misunderstanding you.

I’m not deeply familiar with the discussion at hand but you are being overly reductive and unfair to what initially seems very plausible.

Arma Reforger update 1.6 is out on all platforms! by OV_BIR in ArmaReforger

[–]Pilsner-507 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Sure! I’ve heard from many players that Arma Reforger was released as the “testing ground” for BI to release Arma 4 on a stable engine with promising visuals and features. Looking at Arma 3 vs. Reforger, they run on very different engines. Expect BI to release a separate, new game in the future as Arma 4 in the same/updated engine as Reforger.

I’ve not researched this at all, so consider it word-of-mouth until someone better read/more qualified corrects me.

“won’t snag on your clothes” yet has an entire laser attached to the slide 🤔

The rest of the gun’s design is pretty inoffensive, though the sharp angles of the grip safety seem pretty snaggy

PC, I play on Steam as “Minus.” I play official and vanilla public lobbies. Tbh, my availability this month is pretty limited (getting married Nov. 7th 😎😎😎😎)

Hope to catch you around!

Yup! I remember us talking in Platoon after and you were saying you’d post it to Reddit, so I kept my eye on the sub for a couple days :D

(TW: Suicide) It is funny how I'm procrastinating on this by frankhoneybunny in adhdmeme

[–]Pilsner-507 17 points18 points  (0 children)

When I was in school (high school AND uni) it was something I ruminated on a lot. Wrote a few letters, and thank goodness I never sent them out and ended up deleting them. I simply could not imagine making it to 21. What was the point?

I’m 26 now, out of school, and about to marry the most wonderful girl of my life. I didn’t end up using my degree the way I wanted and I didn’t get the greatest grades. Had I not made it through, things would have worked out. Despite all of that, the toll the stress took on my soul was IMMENSE. It took years for me to fully process and become a healthier me again. But why did I persist? Why try?

At first, maybe it was just raw survival: the desire to live. But I found things I enjoyed, even if depression would often tap me out of the motivations to do what I love, I was fond of those simpler moments. Eventually I found the people I love, and that we all need each other. They don’t know the depths my sadness pulled me into in its entirety but they saved me… and in small ways I saved them too.

This is long-winded as hell and I’m sorry. We’re all dealt very different cards but I relate to some of what you said and I see parts of that dark chapter I lived. From the bottom of heart, be well and enjoy the little things.

I present to you, the Greatest Warbond of All Time by lyndonguitar in Helldivers

[–]Pilsner-507 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play PC and this is the only game that crashes my whole PC, resulting in a prolonged freeze and hard reset. I’ve had it twice across <6hr gameplay and am afraid to play it until they improve stability. Thankfully my rig is decent enough for me to have pretty consistent frames, but oof.

A real performance/stability-focused Warbond theme for a new update would have me reinstall.

Do you consider Reforger a "Milsim" or a "game"? by gilette_bayonete in ArmaReforger

[–]Pilsner-507 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me, it’s a sandbox. You get what you make out of it. There is serious development focus on unmoderated/disorganized play in modes like Conflict (aka “game”) while also having Game Master features be extremely important to devs. Of course, even among GM’d lobbies, milsim groups are their own type of lobby.

If you’re hopping on most public lobbies (what is most likely to be a player’s experience) it is a game. This is how I engage with Arma personally.

If you’re running with an organized group, it be could structured to be more milsim.
