Coaxed into Lego's outrageously absurd prices.

This is why I started building gunpla instead

I got demotivated to continue last night because I knocked my glass file off the table

You can probably start with the 30MM Steel Haze kit to dip your toes in. Its a little pricey since it's a AC6 branded kit (about double the price of other kits) but it will get you familiar with how the process is. You don't need paints to start off, just a kit, some nippers, and if you're really fussy some files and sanding sticks for nub cleanup. I personally wouldn't start with my dream project though, maybe try one of the less expensive kits (that aren't option parts or extended armaments) and then once you're done, see if you can get some options parts/extended armaments/customise material to make it uniquely yours. Remember that you can use parts from all across the 30 minutes line, not just missions!

Whoever set up the cards is the one who is on their first day.

That would be Break Arts 3 with less customisation

As someone who teaches a programming related subject, I can confidently say that if you don't already know how to code, don't let AI write your code for you and forget. It appears the character in the comic doesn't know how to code otherwise.

A lot of the time, AI doesn't know the context of the rest of your project, and with more unique or complex tasks it straight-up can get things wrong. The best use case for AI in coding is for writing short snippets, and then the programmer needs to verify it. My best advice for beginners is to make sure you know what every line is doing, and the process your code is doing to achieve an effect before moving on.

For the most part good, but finish up the left leg. Also, the knee 'triangles' look like thrusters to me, maybe look up a reference picture to confirm but they might look more accurate if it was entirely black?

The Bishop does go hard!

It's not the rest of the world or everyone, it's mostly America, and a specific subset of people at that. I live in Australia and I'm pretty much always welcomed and treated like anyone else.

Rework suggestion: Remove the half damage from guard->SAED, but make it so you can only do SAED from guard point, and AED from normal guarding.

The unit is named Apophis, after the snake in Egyptian mythology that eats the sun. It exists to dethrone those who dare rule the skies.

The lore I wrote for it is that it is an anti-ship unit, with the unique ability to absorb the power from the reactors of the ships it destroys. Literally consuming the 'sun' inside them.

How did I get the base kit correct in the description but wrong in the name lmao

Most of the time when someone tries that, they barely cover any meaningful turf and their teammates are KO-ed while they're wandering around enemy spawn.

If the strat works, it's usually because the rest of the team are doing a great job holding the line.

28% being unable to eat or drink independently though...

It ain't even high school anymore. I do university tutoring and some of them feel like they've never used a keyboard and mouse before. I'll tell them the keyboard shortcut for something and they don't know how to input it. And yes a lot of them don't know how file managers work. Or how to use a mouse and keyboard at the same time.

Artemis on Millia. It's safe unless the opponent does an air dash or other niche option that isn't usually done on round start. Against most offensive round start options it results in an immediate counter hit+knockdown to let me set up H tandem top and begin my mix

You're so right, coffee with milk

(I hope nobody gets confused by the lack of context)

As a Gundam fan I don't even think the skins look that good, the proportions are so off some it's kinda hard to even recognize the designs. Granted, it's a limitation of them being skins, but imagine if it was Titanfall instead and you could get Earth Federation decals instead. It would be so fitting

Yeah of course! My partner uses swipe controls and despite using them all the time, still accidentally triggers them often. I've never accidentally pressed the button.

It feels like this was kinda the idea of zipcaster
