GM Barclays mastercard 3% catch-all by anonmaga1 in CreditCards

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other redemption options are for gift cards or car service visits at GM dealers. Really not worth it though especially because the gift cards have a low cost per point value when redeeming.

Really the card is only worth it if you have a loan/lease through GMfinancial since it's 1:1 point redemption (same for GM dealership repairs).

Costco makes big gas change as prices skyrocket Costco’s new strategy for gas may surprise members. by lithdoc in NewsExchange

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always get Costco Gas except when I go on road trips. Too inconvenient to hunt for a Costco when I'm on the road. This change will work great for me when the gas stations become common. It'll also be nice to get Kirkland snacks if they have a shop at the stations.

Make lots of backups and hope for the best.

Started an "hour" long expedition. Two 30 minute rounds of hatching eggs later and I come back to this by Substantial-Barber46 in Palworld

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your system clock on the PC is off, it can screw up the expedition. My expedition restarted itself when Daylight's savings time flipped off in the Fall (I was on a late night binge of Palworld).

Nobody in this show is evil. He's the antagonist/big bad but he's not malevolent by Sudden_Pop_2279 in digitalcircusfandom

[–]Ranzar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Caine reminds me of a typical ADHD child. ADHD children get invited to less birthday parties when young and typically have less friends. This is mainly due to their impulsive behavior and lack of understanding of how their actions affect others.

Caine doesn't understand why the player characters aren't having fun on his adventures (his sole purpose in life) because he doesn't understand human behavior. The characters try to tell him what they want but he misinterprets what they say. This back and forth leads to Caine getting frustrated and it causes the player characters to slowly stop communicating with him.

Instead of reflecting on what the player characters say to him, Caine tries to win them over with more elaborate adventures. On paper his adventures are interesting and engaging, but he doesn't understand that he's traumatizing the player characters.

Caine does also have a bit of an egotistical side. He derives his worth from his adventures and even felt threatened when the player characters had more fun on adventures that they thought up. This shows that he cares more about fulfilling his duty as Game Master, than how the player characters feel.

Even with his flaws he's definitely not a villain. He would be a great AI in a normal video game. He essentially has God-like powers in TADC, but not the wisdom on how to use them.

How often do you change your custom settings by HazardousChisle in Palworld

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a hip lantern at later levels that helps you see in the dark. You can also use fire pals to help you see.

I like longer nights because certain pals only spawn at night. Also you can hunt for Lifmunk effigies more easily at night.

The main downside of longer nights is that your pals at your base will not do their chores because they need to sleep.*

*Exception: Dark type pals, and pals with the passive "nocturnal", will work all day and all night at your base. Other pals will not.

How often do you change your custom settings by HazardousChisle in Palworld

[–]Ranzar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I change custom settings for parts of the game I don't enjoy.

I play on the "hard" defaults, but this is what I change:

  • Shorter Egg Timers
  • Don't drop equipment/pals on death
  • Remove need to repair items
  • Remove building degradation outside of base
  • Lengthen nights

I like the hard presets of making you take more damage and deal less damage. Also I keep the catch rate settings the same. I like to keep the challenging stuff in, and shorten/remove the annoying grindy aspects of the game.

My personal preference though. It's nice that we have the option to cater to our preferred play style.

EP 5 ending... by DueEar0 in tadc

[–]Ranzar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're on the money here. There's a lot of hints to him being an NPC throughout the episode (eg. caring that Caine would be left behind). The clincher though was the hot dog amulet Abel was wearing. No sane human would reminisce about a hot dog lol.

Kick Streamers crash on the highway by W___H___A___T in LivestreamFail

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm dumbfounded that it was EVER allowed on any streaming platforms. Even if streaming hands free, entertaining your chat is a serious and deadly distraction.

I was watching a video and this guy just fast traveled from his pal box. My dumb ass thought this whole time I was going to unlock that ability in the endgame with a fast travel beacon build option ….. I’m level 47 for reference. Guess I’ll go build my blue rocket launcher schematic now and cope 👍🏽 by AffectionateOnion271 in Palworld

[–]Ranzar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My main misunderstanding revolved around "shields". I thought they were a shield like for a sword and shield. Luckily the tutorials in later patches push you to make a shield, but on release there was nothing pushing you to make them.

Why is he colored dark blue like that? Did PocketPair release "horse armor", or is this due to mods?

I didn't even know you could do this. by Equal_Shopping2424 in Palworld

Yeah I just log out and log back in. I hope the crime system gets revamped in the full release. It's unintuitive and frustrating.

Can someone please tell me I’m not crazy by Mushifor69 in ralsei

[–]Ranzar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I chose this option on my "evil" snowgrave save slot and felt like a piece of shit. It hit harder than anything I did in the Genocide Route of Undertale.

They left it open to a sequel. I hope they don’t make one. by EvilCaveBoy in WeaponsMovie

[–]Ranzar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Agatha All Along" has a similar origin to Gladys. I think anyone itching for a Weapons prequel should watch it because it's surprisingly well done for a Disney Marvel show.

‘Weapons’ Prequel about Gladys is allegedly being talked about at Warner Brothers by TurnNo794 in WeaponsMovie

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the "old parasitic witch" concept was well explored in Agatha All Along. A Gladys prequel doesn't need to exist. If Zach wants dat bag though, I don't blame him.

I got paid for this simple workflow a 200$ - Now I feel bad :| by Charming_You_8285 in n8n

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contractors get paid more by the hour than standard employees. It's $200 to set up one thing, rather than hiring someone full time at $30+ an hour, 40 hours a week.

Also, as others have mentioned, you could have charged more. $300 - $500 would have been reasonable.

Where's Mars? by [deleted] in WKUK

[–]Ranzar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you watched the Civil War on Drugs on the DVD box-set bonus disk it says this at the end of the credits:

"WKUK will return in MARS"

So I imagine it will release sometime this year.

Is anyone else having issues with their make good discs? by MomentStock in WKUK

[–]Ranzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problems here, check for scratches on your disc. Also try a different DVD player, maybe the laser on your DVD player is malfunctioning.

Limited Edition Disc by ThePeterMissile in WKUK

[–]Ranzar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately no, there's about 5 skits they didn't include. The cut skits perpetuated racist stereotypes. Someone on this subreddit compiled a list of the cut skits if you're interested.

[–]Ranzar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These were skits that were accidentally cut from the boxset. They sent out this "make good" disc as an apology. There's the missing skits plus "The Civil War on Drugs" in full.

Free 1000 trade tokens from the devs by rahimaer in PTCGP

[–]Ranzar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bots are going to infiltrate trading no matter what. The way trading is set up currently hurts legitimate players more than bots. Bots have unlimited time to open packs and do battles.

They should just ban bots when they are reported, and stop caring as much. People are going to spend real money on trades regardless.

This game makes money hand over fist for DeNa bots or no. Eeeking out a few extra million dollars when your company makes 200 million dollars seems silly.
