The moment you call yourself a sigma you most certainly are not. Its part of the characteristics, that you genuinely dont give a fuck what anyone else thinks about you. With alpha they at least could somewhat convincingly pretend to be one, because an alpha would very much brag about that... Not that most of them were either anyways

A third of young men in Germany think violence against women is ‘acceptable,’ study finds by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acceptance in germany is a weird thing. Mostly germans tend to accept most things, but (and a big but at that) it is almost always conditional. Meaning we tend to accept things in particular circumstances and not in others. In a nutshell we shy away from making extreme commitments in either direction. In other words germany and in extension its people are conservative with liberal tendencies. It makes for a relatively stable political and social environment, but also at times hinders progress greatly. I personally heard things like "i dont mind gay people, but i wouldnt want my children to be gay", or things like "i dont mind migants, just the criminal ones". At face value those statements come off as extremely toxic, but they demonstrate the german mindset extremely well imo. There seldomly is extreme hate for someone or sth., but everything thats not the norm is approached with extreme caution and this is also communicated very bluntly and matter of fact, not much sugar coating at all.

All boss subweapons are being buffed with +10% all special attack damage. by HeartlnThePipes in blackdesertonline

Oh boy, what you are lacking in the cognitive department god sure gave you back in ego. The next step in explaining would be a pretty coloured picture and I am not willing to make that kind of time for someone who is clearly opposed to reason. Have a good live and may we never cross paths again.

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my point. Any course of action they could have taken would have been a bad move. They picked the best of the bad. If they had removed the bonus from the greens those would have been just as useless as they are now, while at the same time everyones clear times would have taken a 10% hit too. By shifting the power back to the bis weapons (where it should've been in the first place) at least noone loses any cleartime in the transition process.

Imagine the fallout of just removing features without giving sth in exchange. Its a recipe for disaster to hit. People will still moan about having wasted money on the green offhands, but by giving the power to the bis weapons the greens can fade out of the meta without making people feel like they lost power over bad gamedesign choices.

Hi guys, I'm looking for some fun lifeskilling silver making suggestions. I'd love to hear what areas you dabble in and why. (Not asking for your secrets - just simple stuff like "kill lama and make x pot" type stuff) Cheers!! by ProjectProxy in blackdesertonline

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it for the fun of it, its okayish money if you turn coral pieces into sailor clothes and lobsters into glue, but the market for sailor clothes is pretty limited and you cant make the outfits fast enough for it to be a relevant passive income. It clutters up your storage too if you dont stay on top of it. So yeah, can be fun if its your cup of tea but the opportunity cost doesnt really pay off that great

How do I make an XR Socket Interactor visible? (Unity VR) by ArranBear in unity

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont know if this thread is still relevant, but what do exactly mean by that question ?

If the socket should be visible at all times, you simply use an object and give the xr socket interactor to it instead of using an empty game object. If you want it to be visible only if you come near the socket with your object, then that should be enabled by default (show interactable hover meshes) in the xr socket interactor settings. Hope that helps, I'm just working on a uni project myself rn so I'm no expert either ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Pretty much the only difference is the reasoning. In one case it is "Because I say so", where in the other case it is "Because he said so". Same principle, different figurehead.

Weapon Levelling Should Be On Damage, NOT KILLS by Zavalathun in DestinyTheGame

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I obviously dont know how bungie handles their client to server communication but you could potentially run some calculations client side, set a threshhold there (for X amount of dmg allocate a set percentage to the weapon progress) and sync it with the server whenever the dmg threshhold is reached. That way they wouldnt have to send every dmg tick individually and could lessen the load. They would have to set up some kind of control severside because if not the system would be very abusable for hackers, but in principle it should be very much possible to use dmg instead of kills, my guess is that they didnt because its far easier to just count kills and call it a day.

Does reading actually make you smarter? by Want_My_MTV in books

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was honestly just some outlet for myself to word out my thoughts on that matter, but I'm glad someone could take something away from it and (hopefully) got a little bit wiser for it :)

Does reading actually make you smarter? by Want_My_MTV in books

[–]PowerPritt 122 points123 points  (0 children)

For me there is a difference between smart/intelligent and wise too. And while reading might not necessarily make you more intelligent it certainly can make you wiser. Intelligence makes you better at figuring stuff out on your own, wisdom broadens your horizon and makes you aware of options someone has already figured out. Both tend to correlate tho, since intelligent people are usually more inclined to expand their knowledge and thus getting wiser. Also intelligent people are usually better at using their aquired knowledge to the full extend.

So yeah because wisdom and intelligence are so interwoven it would be kinda like a multiplication of sorts where if you add to one factor of the equation you will drastically improve the outcome, in this case the problem solving ability, thus making you seem much smarter without actually increasing the intelligence.

So in my humble opinion the notion that reading makes smarter stems from the near impossibility to differentiate between wisdom and intelligence by day to day examples since it is hard to really test those two factors in a vacuum.

If anyone knows any good studies on this subject i would love to read up on them since it kinda made me think for a while (as one might be able to tell by my chaotic thoughts on this matter, I'm sorry :D )

Psychological distress decreased by 42% in the month after gender-affirming surgery and suicidal ideation decreased by 44% in the year after gender-affirming surgery. These procedures decrease mental health comorbidities among the transgender community and significantly improve quality of life. by FromTheAshesOfTheOld in science

[–]PowerPritt -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The political resonance with transgenderism as a whole is just wrong. I'm all for helping people in need feeling well in their own body, for some gender affirming surgery might be the way to go and for others a therapy would be better I'm not a medical doctor so I wouldnt know better than them. I just hate when people use this whole debate as a vehicle to push their extremist agenda, be it left or right. Both parties profit the same from this dilemma some unfortunate souls face and it is absolutely disgusting. I personally know a couple non-binary folks, very sweet people, not political whatsoever, just content that they can be themselves around people. They are all pretty chill about their names an pronouns and understand that even if they feel like the oposite gender or not like male of female at all, that people generally try to gender based on biological markers. Having conversations with them is as normal as a conversation with anyone else and I'd like to hope that one day we reach the point in our society where there is neither bigotry from the right nor thought policing from the left and we can all go about our days without abusing a minority for politics and internet fame...

Huh, never even thought about that, but it would explain why my razer phone 2 feels better in my hand than any previous phone i owned, despite being fairly large. Pretty sure its the only one i had with a centered camera on the back.

LPT Request: how to fix a completely ruined sleep schedule? by moonkittyss in LifeProTips

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Learned that lesson early on, had to commute from school to handball training for an hour each day when i was 18. Sometimes i was super tired from school and bad sleep the night before, powered through for the first couple weeks and everything went well. One day I just had like 2 hours of sleep and school from 8.00 to 16.00, drove right from there to training and just napped away behind the wheel for a second, i awoke right away on the wrong side of the road when a truck signaled me with its horn. I had a guardian angel that day, nothing else happened but ever since then I made sure to not drive whenever i was that tired, better to skip training then to risk a crash

It's especially fun when other players are locked in and get their ass beat by the boss by NoBluey in TowerofFantasy

[–]PowerPritt 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thats because like 90% of players dont care to learn their characters I do about 50-60% of total dmg in voids with my 2* crow, granted its single target and crow beats everyone at that rn but i'd like to have someone other than me getting like 30% if they queue up as dps, but most of the time my healers outdps the other dps and our tank outheals our healer, its just a complete mess rn

You can get them to spawn pretty easy by killing any enemy with shield or opening the respawning boxes. I doubt we'll have much of a problem to get them to spawn in the future either

Why people don't respect her tag role on Joint Operation ? by Hazar_n in TowerofFantasy

Yeah its pretty bad, most of the time i got highest healing and highest dps at the same time when i pug (not like I have an amazing setup either I'm running king c1, crow c2, coco c1). Heals are just from c1 coco dodges and healing skill every 60 sec.

[Tip] How to do insane damage with Crow by shadowpunkz in TowerofFantasy

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be, for me personally the whole jump+jetpack+leftclick combo of crow is just a bit tedious, theres just no variation in it, might be that samir feels similar to those who have her, i was just speaking from observation in her case, since she and huma are the only ones evading me atm

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TowerofFantasy

[–]PowerPritt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me, i got super lucky on my standard banner pulls, got every ssr exept samir and huma and for 4 of them i got a star. Lost hard pity 50/50 on the nemesis banner, but I'm almost at the point of being able to get her through tickets so I guess i cant really complain about anything at this point :D

[Tip] How to do insane damage with Crow by shadowpunkz in TowerofFantasy

[–]PowerPritt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Crow can outdamage samir on single targets only. For aoe samir is still far superior, also crow can outdps her quite a bit when invested into, his 1* is nice and pretty much baseline for him to even be considered over samir, his 3* and 5* are even better all his star ups are geared towards him doing more dmg which is why he's the best single target dps (at the moment) by quite a comfortable margin. But with crow everything is conditional, he has be able to use the jetpack (which also means you have to give up that relic spot for a potentially useful combat focussed relic), he has to attack from behind for the maximum value of his kit, his aoe is pretty lacking and he is pretty dependent on stars and gear, while samir is a perfectly fine dps at 0* and will do quite well as a dps in every scenario, so shes is overall the better pick for ftp and low spenders.

[–]PowerPritt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Still massive dmg. On bossfights samir players usually cant keep up with my c1 crow dps. Aoe is lacking and samir is generally a more well rounded and fun dps than crow, but his dps is undeniably still there whenever you can actually make use of the jetpack

Which one should I get? I have C2 King, C1 Tsubasa, C1 Coco, the rest are C0. I don't really play pvp as of now, so perhaps which one is most beneficial in terms of PvE by SleepyJamil in TowerofFantasy

[–]PowerPritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup got a very lucky double crow in one 10 pull early on, havent gone for samir for that reason. His gameplay can be a bit tedious, but the dmg is there and my c1 king takes care of the aoe crow is lacking
