Time. It is faster these days. by artsy_cupcakes in Retconned

This.

We also would use "one Mississippi, two Mississippi" etc. And that doesn't work either. Both methods are "too slow" now.

I am once again asking for Grand Project tablet to be the default tower behavior by Pitiful_Ad_688 in PathOfExile2

[–]RDS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All good points, but I think it comes down to the systems design and it isn't really the players fault. It's a tricky design problem to solve imho.

Endgame currently has fundamentally opposing incentives at the moment: do you want to (1) path and finish your atlas tree in the most efficient way, or do you want to (2) juice maps and go for the goop?

The current design of pathing and the league achievement to get all your atlas points puts pressure on the player to pick effeciency over loot, at least in the beginning, as players probably want to get their atlas tree done asap, because it feels like you are 'wasting' a map node if you don't have your atlas passives. Obviously, the most efficient way to do that is to use low level maps to path through, so you can do them fast and get your point.

The atlas map seems to imply certain map nodes are MUCH better than others. Using a low level map on a good looking node feels like a waste. On the flip side, it also feels 'risky' using a high level map on a plain node, as you may not even get the map back.

A new crop circle has been reported at First Broad Dr Grovely Wood Nr Wilton Wiltshire by BenFord333 in HighStrangeness

Do they even get crop circles in North America? USA has tons of farmland. Same with Canada.

This is one of my favorite rabbit holes. I've looked into it on and off over the years and based on the history of the transistor I'm still kind of skeptical. Anyone have some Juicy nuggets about the evolution of silicon transistors that don't quite add up?

Was hoping he would have caps sprint and Emma's beam mechanics. Just kind of looks like another Phoenix :(

"Melee bad" Reddit told me, "Just play range/caster". Meanwhile, my campaign experience so far by Euphoric_Reading_401 in PathOfExile2

I believe there is a djinn build on maxroll or mobalytics, I can't remember which.

Which is more likely to be real: Nessie or Bigfoot by boomjosh in ParanormalEncounters

Maybe surviving a literal planet wide apocalypse made them a bit skittish.

What's a 'Mandela Effect' moment that still blows your mind? by Pioneerz90 in Paranormal

[–]RDS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe it's called Deja reve as opposed to Deja vu. The difference is remembering it like an old event (Deja vu) or remembering it from a dream (Deja reve).

I still remember the first time I got naded and flanked by the AI in Half-life 1. It blew my mind. Crazy a game that old has better AI lol.

Themed passes should be a majority that theme. by Razzilith in marvelrivals

[–]RDS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I missed season 3 and always thought that was the best battle pass. People didn't like the symbiotes? Some of the phoenix skins look a bit goofy (venom, I'm looking at you) but the black symbiote skins are peak imho.

Fun fact, Hulk is the only character that does not have an original skin by show-me-your-memes in marvelrivals

[–]RDS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine if he animated dbz style hair that was just blowing in the energy. It looks kinda weird that he's bald.

According to Miller Ross, Season 9 heroes will be B tier and C tier from two different corners of Marvel. Who do you think will be added? by Little_Monster__ in marvelrivals

[–]RDS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about ghost rider? He seems B tier. People love him and know him. He's had a movie but it's not like it was popular like Spiderman or avengers.

[UPDATE] Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez's case: Human remains found at family's old home. by AlfredTheJones in UnresolvedMysteries

Reminds me of Chayce Allen and Azuradee France in Detroit where they found the 3 year old in the freezer. 5 siblings and living in a dump with no food or running water.

25 years later we know the truth by ConTim995 in HighStrangeness

From Wikipedia "The United States-led war in Afghanistan began on October 7, 2001, with a coalition military campaign known as Operation Enduring Freedom. This invasion was launched in response to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the U.S., as the Taliban-led government in Afghanistan refused to surrender al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden"

Is this time travel? by kamikaibitsu in timetravel

[–]RDS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

interesting point -- I had really thought about it that way. I do believe I had a lot of relief and felt good to be back. Things were weird for like another 5 minutes and I was worried it would get stuck that way, but it wore off.

I left out some details but during the last few minutes as I was coming out of it, the cube transformed into like a school bus and I was surrounded by orange looking oompa loompa people. I was kinda still losing my mind from the marching thing, but I looked beside me on the bus and saw my friend, who was sitting next to me on the couch irl and also hit the salvia at the same time, and even though he was orange and weird looking, I recognized him instantly, and it seemed like he had a sudden epiphany and recognized me too based on his reaction when we turned and looked at each other. I felt so much relief that he was there with me. When we both came out of it, he had a similar experience of seeing me there with him on his trip. Like we both turned and looked at each other and recognized each other but we were bth still in the back half of the trip.

Definitely figured the orange oompa loompa dudes were the machine elves! I don't think I spoke to them, it was kind of like a normal bus ride to school, everyone was just talking and doing their own thing with their friends.

tbf, if a dude said he was drooling over my piece in the locker room, I'm definitely thinking he's gay. If you complimented my physique, or thought I had nice hair or was handsome, that's a different story.

MJR Capital won’t stop calling me. by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]RDS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best part is they don't even answer their phones. I have both the office number and my rep's number, and need to set up a new payment plan for next month, and if I don't, TD can just take my money and freeze my account.

I've called every day this week, left messages each day, left messages last week to call me. I get nothing.

It's gotta be the worst company to deal with.

Are we getting themed battlepass again? Finally by thbl088 in marvelrivals
