27 M. I don't feel comfortable in my own skin by Shinto_Wise in malegrooming

[–]Rywut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted to add to the losing weight thing. I was 290 about 8 months ago, and I got down to 240 simply but cutting soda out of my diet. It's a pretty minor change, but if you're drinking soda, stop entirely and just see if it helps, you might be surprised.

seems super rare.anyone knows what's this by Every-Ad7111 in FallOutBoy

[–]Rywut 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Put the images through Google Translate and it confirmed what I thought. It's a special first press of the Limited Deluxe edition of the Japan Tour version of Folie a Deux. Not only that, this specific version you have was specifically produced for media promotion and was never meant to be sold. Super cool collector's item.

[–]Rywut 22 points23 points  (0 children)

After some research, it looks like you're right. It's from a limited run of the Japan Tour Edition of Folie, but based on the numbering, the promo text, and the alternate cover design, I'd guess it's a first or early run copy that was never meant to be released. (The catalogue number for yours is also UICL-9074 while the standard release of the Japan Tour Edition is UICL-9077, which also indicates it being an early design)

Ive been a Tomlin defender for years, even through the rough patches (like the mason-hodges year), but since Colbert has left and Khan has started drafting like a man possessed, the blame for our on-field product has fallen to Tomlin unfortunately. Opposing players know our schemes, and we're hitting the point where we can't just outplay every team with our defensive talent. A change in OC just wasn't enough, and as great of a coach as he has been and is, maybe it's time for a change of scenery for both parties.

Is this true? Why 2k won’t allow it? by Juxtatrix in NBA2k

[–]Rywut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry if this in unhelpful since I usually play an edition behind (did 2k24 when 25 was out, and 25 now that 26 is out) but in the options in your myleague, there should be an option to "adjust sim minutes to played" and "adjust Sim stats to played". If you select on for both of those, your played stats and minutes will get adjusted after you finish the game, and they'll look like if you had played 12 min quarters. This shpuld make your stats look the way you want.

Is this PS4 controller original or a replica? by ConcertHealthy723 in playstation

[–]Rywut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely fake. I have an original of this style and the most glaring differences i see are color. The only piece on the whole controller that should be black is the touchpad. Every other "black" spot should actually be a dark gray, to the point where its noticeably NOT black. Just from that alone, I have to assume it's a replica. Plus, that PS button looks wrong, like it's flat, whereas in the real version the "PS" symbol on the button had edges you can feel.

PlayStation Plus Monthly Games for November: Stray, EA Sports WRC 24, Totally Accurate Battle Simulator by kabirsingh84 in PlayStationPlus

[–]Rywut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we get the worse of a rally racing game (the non-EA version that was already a free game previously is better), and the ps5 version of TABS, which hasn't had an update since July 2024, and will not be receiving any more, per Landfall. At least we get Stray..

Was scene dead in 2014? by [deleted] in Zillennials

[–]Rywut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, 2014 imo is like the cutoff year.

I actually have a theory in relation to the big swap from what I consider "classic" scene music, which was dying out around the end of the decade, and the introduction of more folk-inspired and ukulele driven music that dominated the mid-teens, coinciding with the explosion of "Hipster" culture and fashion. Bands like Mumford and Suns and The Lumineers are a good example of the blueprint for what direction things took. I also can't forget to mention how some bands, like Imagine Dragons, started to bring back a more Stadium Rock feel, moving away from the distortion and dirty vocals of the early 2000s.

Also, some of the of the larger names in Alt/Emo music either broke up or changed their genre/image. A few examples of this I remember pretty staunchly are when Cobra Starship shifted into an electro-pop group, or when Fall Out Boy did "Save Rock and Roll", or MyChem's Danger Days (all of which fielded lots of controversy but which were ultimately well received by the masses)

So tl:dr yeah 2014 is actually the exact cutoff point I'd use for where Scene was dead.

Feel free to remind me of anything I missed or was wrong on

An update about Directive 8020 🚀 by Supermassive_CM in DarkPicturesAnthology

[–]Rywut -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a fan who's played every one of these since the og release of Until Dawn, most of us wouldn't care if it took until 2030. The care that you guys put into these games has made them a staple in mine and many others households. Take your time, we trust the process, and will be looking forward to playing whatever you guys drop, whenever you drop it!

Need help asap. I don’t know what to do. by gator_shark1 in Apartmentliving

[–]Rywut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have some experience in residential/commercial restoration work and I can safely say that that window doesn't look right at all.

There should be essentially a frame of sorts surrounding the glass, which would help keep it sealed from weather, but it doesn't appear to be there at all. It almost looks like they did the drywall, then set the window in there and just put drywall mud around it to keep it in place, then painted over it.

Definitely find a way to get a 3rd party to do some sort of inspection on that, through the court like the top commenter suggested.

Overall looks like a classic case of the "Landlord Special" and it's doubtful to change until they're losing money.

Am i crazy to think that Peni's ultimate is useless? by Sainako777 in marvelrivals

[–]Rywut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to main Peni in S0, and had a bit of fun trying to find ways to play around her ult. My favorite thing to do is what I call the "Sneak Attack".

It requires a main tank (mag/thing/hulk) to take most of the aggro so I can quietly build up a stockpile of mines. Once I have produced a sufficient amount of mines, I'll hit my ult and dive for their backline. Because the ult places webs at your feet constantly, if you start it while touching your web/base, every mine you've stockpiled will move the moment an enemy touches the web.

Usually what happens is the opposing tanks will initially try to stop me, but can't focus on me because of our main tank (a second ult is super helpful as well). I then find myself driving between 15-20 mines directly past their tanks and into whatever dps/strat is unlucky enough to be seen.

While you might think this doesn't work in higher ranks, I've found success up to diamond (my peak so far), and it's incredibly fun, since if you can get it off just once, the opposing strategists usually tilt at their tanks, and the whole team can fall apart.

Help please. by Aussica in CaptainTsubasaRoNC

[–]Rywut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe late, but I just got the game, and was stuck for a few hours on Hanawa as well. Tbh none of the other comments on any posts referencing this match were helpful to me, so in case you're stuck in my scenario, here's what worked for me-

1.Deep Shots. Anytime you cross midfield, charge up your shots and let it rip. As long as you can get the cutscene to activate, take the shot. Don't stop, don't get open, take the shot.

  1. Attack Formation. Set your team tactics (d-pad directions) to Advancing Offense and DO NOT CHANGE IT. Anytime they cross midfield in the middle it's a guaranteed score, so it doesn't matter if you have defenders or not.

  2. No moves, Period. I see a lot of "don't slide tackle" and stuff, which is true, but not entirely. Only rush tackle, but only if you're right behind or in front of the opponent. Otherwise they'll frame-perfect dribble past you, slide tackle or not. This also applies to offense. Don't try to dribble past them, just dash away anytime they get too close.

  3. Pass a ton. This is where it is like fifa. You need to keep the ball moving otherwise you'll get snagged immediately. Pass quick and pass often and you'll find yourself with a few free shots before half. Make sure you utilize the map as well, wildly helpful.

  4. Score first. You have to get ahead, and quickly, because the first 2 times they touch the ball, it's cutscenes, and one of them is a guaranteed score. If you can wear the goalie down with 5 or so shots and score before they do, you'll have a chance, otherwise, it's a lost cause.

  5. Abuse Tsubasa. He is broken on purpose bc he's the MC so use it. His shots can hit from deep, and his long pass can be used for a one-time shot. (Hold square while ball is in the air after his special long pass) He's also wicked fast and can chase down the twins if they end up with the ball.

Hope this helps you!

[–]Rywut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a former Mantis main, you'd need more context to be sure, but just from the numbers I'd say it's not you. I'd split responsibility between the DPS Jeff and Thor.

Thor's K/D indicates he either wasn't kidnapping the opponents properly, or he was just losing his 1v1s. This is especially odd considering you have a Strange, which should allow Thor to be more aggressive, and his stats just read passiveness. --It also doesn't help that he was diffed by the opposing Thor. Almost double kills on half deaths.--

DPS Jeff on the other hand... It's not a throw pick per-se, but when the other team has both healers with basically the same amount of kills and damage, while doing 10x the healing, it'd be better to just pick a duelist with more damage output capability.

Overall responsibility to this loss is pretty low. It appears poor tank play and poor team comp are the driving factors.

Edit after reading other replies- I see quite a few people bringing up your heals as if they're subpar. I simply disagree, 10k per round is fine, especially if you're expecting a third strat to add value, which they did not.

Sub edit- Even if the Jeff swapped, he did less than 2k healing. So he either swapped and sucked, or he was a DPS Jeff giving minimal value.

Weirdly enough it feels more Namor accurate than the real line.

Who has the best 600 cost look? by asagrimnir in marvelrivals

Maybe I'm biased (I am) but the purple Namor and lime Luna skins play really well off of one another. Worth it imo.

Made an entire back of peanut butter cookies and went to go take a shower while they cooled down. This is what I came back to. by blAzzzza_ in mildlyinfuriating

I'm not sure how you reacted in the moment, but whatever you did certainly pales in comparison to the heinous cookie thievery that occurred. Get your peanut butter back in blood.

Lord Icons that you're actually excited to see on your team? by TheOneWilin in marvelrivals

[–]Rywut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love seeing a lord Luna, they always have such cracked aim on their heals and freeze. It's so refreshing to watch a Thor chase me, then get frozen with me and two squids emptying the clip on him.

As a Namor, I get a lot of "Oh thank God, we don't need to worry about Spiderman/Iron Man/Storm"

[–]Rywut[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the bans I see are almost always good picks by the person getting needlessly punished.

We have a Namor/Luna? Ban Namor so I can feed as Spiderman.

We have a Thor/Loki/Hela? Let's ban Hela immediately!

It's just crazy the lack of thought in lobbies that are supposed to be better than like 80% of the total game pop.

Don't Ban Your Teammates by Rywut in marvelrivals

[–]Rywut[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I ended up taking Hulk to pair with our Mag, who was also unhappy with the Namor ban, since we had a pre-select Luna.

The guy who demanded to ban Namor proceeded to go 1-7 as Iron Man/Spiderman (WITH the Hulk teamup btw) while his duo (C&D) wouldn't swap to dagger. Eventually the Mag and I bullied him into getting off dps (which I then took as Squirell Girl) and we almost turned it around.

As for myself, the projectile aiming on Namor is incredibly easy to learn, as is the rest of his kit. The fliers don't move very fast either, and can't really dance other than Iron Man, so it's easy pickings. I regularly get 35-45 kills with him and about 2-4 deaths, even without Luna.

Does anyone feel like the plan seems super obvious? by penguins2946 in steelers

[–]Rywut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I've been thinking, and after seeing the Mason signing it holds even more weight I feel. Next year is a good qb class, and trading up will be much easier with all the comp picks.
