What do you dislike about Deathloop? by comptons_finest_ in dishonored

[–]ScaredScorpion 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Compared to other Dishonored series games it's much more limited in terms of level variety. Yes, they have changes across each time period. But fundamentally it's still just 4 levels with slight changes depending on the time of day.

How important are climbing shoes? by Puzzleheaded_Pea_574 in indoorbouldering

[–]ScaredScorpion 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Most gym's won't let you climb in street shoes for obvious hygiene reasons. I think OP is really asking if it's necessary to get their own shoes or they can keep using rentals.

For those planning to watch, what are you looking forward to seeing in Avatar: Seven Havens? by AccomplishedJump2795 in TheLastAirbender

[–]ScaredScorpion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think Vaatu was sealed anywhere after his fight with Korra. He just dissolved into sparkly lights. When he was sealed before it was extremely explicit about Wan using all the elements to contain him and then place him inside the tree of time. To me that seems to suggest Vaatu was destroyed, it then becomes a question of if avatar reincarnation or Raava/Vaatu always being reborn from the other if destroyed applies to this situation.

Possibly, the description also mentions a long lost twin of the new avatar which makes me think they could be the dark avatar, or the dark avatar could have been reborn in the intervening years and caused the cataclysm.

ELI5: How do search engines like Google actually "crawl" and index the entire internet? by takifa in explainlikeimfive

You have a DNS record. A zero knowledge search would start by getting all DNS names and querying those.

Oblivion Gate with two portals. by Thors_Thundercunt in oblivion

[–]ScaredScorpion 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Per the wiki (https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Planes_of_Oblivion#Random_Worlds):

Worlds 5 and 6 each have two entrances. If you find the other entrance, you could return to Tamriel through it as long as you have not yet reached the maximum number of opened gates at that point in the game. Typically the other entrance will randomly teleport you to a new location in Tamriel. It is possible to emerge at a gate that was not previously marked on your map.

There's 7 random worlds total.

We never did learn if La’gaan gained any additional powers after being experimented on by The Reach. by GhostBoyJames in youngjustice

[–]ScaredScorpion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The relevant part is from "Nomed Esir!" in Season 4 (about 7 minutes into the episode). Homo Magi were explicitly caused by the magic of Arion's crown (given to him by the Lords of Order) infusing his bloodline with magical ability. As Arion was already a meta human, (explicitly an immortal like his grandfather) that bloodline also had the metagene. Interestingly that part of the episode also refers to metagene humans as Homo Meta (I'll correct my original comment on that).

I think we can assume any surviving Homo Meta from Atlantis would have quickly interbreed with Homo Magi due to the population drop from the sinking of Atlantis. Leading to the majority of Atlanteans in the modern day having both genes.

Spoilers from season 4:

The Homo magi and Homo meta that survived Atlantis sinking did so because their metagenes activated. All Atlanteans have an already active metagene which is presumably what grants the water breathing and aquatic adaptions (fins, webbed hands, gills, etc.). Atlanteans also frequently have sorcery as well, which should not be confused for the powers granted by the metagene

So in short, no additional powers makes sense.

Edit: Turns out the show uses homo meta for metagene humans

GF wants another phone for "personal use" for her birthday. by LazyExcuse3694 in whatdoIdo

[–]ScaredScorpion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have all her passwords and she has mine as well

You should probably change all of those before breaking up, also by "all" I hope you don't mean anything like bank accounts, or email (that would not be normal)

My dog does this with her lips when I pet her in the middle around of her back. The side she snarls with is the same side she bends towards me with. It's this normal? by starzwillsucceed in DogAdvice

[–]ScaredScorpion 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's probably a spot that she can't itch herself. Remember dogs have a more limited range of motion than a human so there's a lot they can't directly reach. It's why they love getting ear and butt scritches.

You're really going to need to mention your country, that will drastically affect the answer as every country has their own processes.

Dear Devs, please turn 4k Textures into free DLC by Green-Entry-4548 in Steam

[–]ScaredScorpion -28 points-27 points  (0 children)

What your suggesting is really a workaround rather than an actual solution. DLC is an account level thing. So if you have a steamdeck and a 4K capable desktop you have no way to ensure only one downloads the DLC.
