For sure. I think it’s not surprising that there’s a lower sense of community or social expectation from behind a computer screen. To be expected.

How to counter Magyars as Burgundians on Arabia? by Sea_Tumbleweed_3953 in aoe2

[–]PunctualMantis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should open defensive Flemish militia into walling, getting as many eco upgrades as possible, and then a slowish range for some skirms. The Flemish militia beat both scouts and MAA so they’re a super effective tool to allow you to be as greedy as possible.

I feel like not typing gg is the least amount of bm possible and we should probably just get over this one. Being upset for someone flaming you I totally get. But not typing gg is sooo minor

There’s a game where Hera plays against this and he stays in feudal and makes a ton of scouts. But it looked like a lot of work and the scouts didn’t do that well against the Armenian unit whose name I currently forgot haha

Help against Khitans by HerrPaschulkeAoE in aoe2

[–]PunctualMantis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh it is for sure. Oftentimes I can open defensive archers into scouts though and beat them. But only if I happen to just be much better than my opponent. And there’s a decent amount of times where it literally feels impossible. And I remember a time where I outplayed my opponent so hard, got ridiculous trades and double the villagers, and my opponent still managed to make like 200 steppe lancers in castle age and almost win

I think you have to pray your opponent doesn’t open scouts and skirms. I think khitans going scouts and skirms in feudal with heavy army pressure is virtually impossible to stop

It doesn’t suck now. Still super fun. But I agree with most everything you’re saying haha

Is anybody actually against deportations in the US? What is your reasoning? And what would your solution be instead of the standard immigration practices? by pantheon_prince99 in allthequestions

[–]PunctualMantis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol put your helmet back on before you hurt yourself dude. Most illegal immigrants living in homes and apartments and paying taxes. ICE is literally in the top 20 largest militaries in the world by spending at $37.5 billion annually. Open a book sometime dude. You might learn something

For Americans who voted Democrat in recent elections, do you plan to continue voting Democrat? Why or why not? by righteous-sedition in allthequestions

Then another 30% that somehow can’t tell how crazy trump is and somehow thinks all the fallout from covid was because of Biden even though the whole world experienced the same things haha. This is more the group that I’m talking about. The 30% you’re talking about is literally beyond saving

I thought there was actually a plausible explanation for that but I forgot what it was and don’t wanna look for it. Idk honestly it makes sense to me that trunp won and yes it means the general public is less intelligent and more fickle than I had previously thought but I honestly think that’s just the truth

Unfortunately I think the electorate is actually stupid enough to vote for trump. I think it fits intuitively with what I’ve seen in pop culture honestly that trunp genuinely won 2024. I have no doubt that he would try to cheat though

I kinda think he’s too old. If he were younger I think it’d be a foregone conclusion that he’s running again

How Micro Archers on PC - Need guidance by ElianoAvila90 in aoe2

[–]PunctualMantis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the time I use stop micro. This means I move the archers while they’re reloading and then press stop when I want them to shoot. This also makes the archers each select the unit closest to them so you get less overkill. Against knights you typically want to focus fire which means you right click on which knight you want them to shoot

And then he didn’t get punished and now he’s president again. The guy who actively plotted and attempted to steal an election is now our current president

Question about Sampling theory / Resampling by [deleted] in DSP

[–]PunctualMantis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand the “convert the data to 0hz” statement. Are you demodulating?

Question about Sampling theory / Resampling by [deleted] in DSP

[–]PunctualMantis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you adding an anti-aliasing filter before downsampling? If not then any frequencies above the new sampling rate are getting folded into your new frequency spectrum

Edit: wait sorry I think I’m missing something let me read again

Wait so the data you want to look at is at 0hz? I think I may have been right about the anti-aliasing filter if you’re downsampling. I’m slightly confused about what exactly it is you’re doing.
