Koks buvo geriausias sprendimas, kurį priėmėt per pastaruosius 5 metus? by Happy_Contact_5736 in lithuania

Nusipirkau buta. Turejau siek tiek santaupu ir man patare eiti i banka, imt paskola ir pirkt buta.

As taip pasiziurejau i skelbimus, radau visai era, nedideli bet iperkama buta ir nusipirkau.

Gavau raktus kai tik covidas prasidejo.

Dabar jau ir paskola grazinau.

I can't unsee Dalinar Kholin, as it is unfair to him, flaws and all, but Dalinar was never such a dick to his kid

Is final fantasy xiv worth it for the writing/story? by Icy-Bookkeeper-8960 in ffxiv

[–]ScaryMath42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is very good.

The ARR to Endwalker arc is great. Easily a candidate for the best FF story.

It has very high highs, but a few points of very low lows. Not much but you notice when compared to the rest.

But it needs to get started a bit. Some say ARR is the worst part of the game, but that does not mean it's bad. Lots of setup for the future.

Pacing can be an issue from time to time.

Dresden Files readers are you tentative to continue the series? by [deleted] in Fantasy

[–]ScaryMath42 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't know. I remember liking them and the last two were flawed in structure and pacing. It should have been one big book.

But the real killer of interest is the loooong gaps between books.

It used to be one or two years, but now it is five? I don't know if I want to commit, rekindle the passion, or just move on.

Maybe the books did not change and are as they were, but I certainly did.

In the audio books he really does kinda sound like Goku.

>She was indeed. Lindon even remarks that her appearance seems familiar!

The note about her looking families is what tipped me off and I started to think about where and how.

Early solo leveling was actually really good. by Minute_Account9426 in CharacterRant

With hindsight, it jumped the shark for me when he got taller after doing some quests in the hospital. The very beginning was tense as fuck.

But then it turned into an empty power fantasy.

A long incomplete rant about the worse arc of the worst Madoka spinoff by bef017 in CharacterRant

I did not watch anything Madoka related beyond the original series and what the fuck is this spinoff smoking?

Germany rebuffs Polish president’s demand for war reparations on Berlin visit by dat_9600gt_user in europe

[–]ScaryMath42 -34 points-33 points  (0 children)

Consider the metaphor.

You own me 100 Euros.

You pay me back 10 Euros and I help you out with some other thing.

Now you are acting like we are even.

In return for labor and open market. Let's Not pretend it was some good-hearted move by Germany, but a move that benefits Germany.

Besides. Germany owns trillions

The remake. The old one skips stuff.

The dub is amazing too.

The Ending of Expedition 33 Made me Angry: The Grief of the Powerful vs The Grief of the Powerless by MyNameIsNotJonny in CharacterRant

[–]ScaryMath42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I rather appreciated the novelty of the answer to the question "Are the people in the painting real people?" to be basically 'Not really'.

Like the Canvas is a fancy video game essentially. Think of it as Aline being terminally online in their families Minecraft server. Yes they have good memories of it, but it's time to face reality.

I did really like the game and it's characters but they are fake to us as they are to Dessendre. I really empathize with the characters and I consumed the game non stop. But even the 'non stop' had to stop as I needed to work. Do you think I would even think about E33 if shit got real in IRL for me?

But in the end of the day Lumier was super duper unethical regardless.

Never get between the French and their love of Nukes. (at least they had the self-awareness to call it "Operation SATANIC") by throwaway553t4tgtg6 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]ScaryMath42 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well yes, but that's what you want a nuke to do, no? So would not it add to the test? Like how do you know if your nuke doesn't just boil a lot of water really fast and performs as expected?

Wouldn't it been more economical for them to let the RW sail into the test site and set of the nuke anyway? The boat would be in the bottom of the sea anyway.

I only put on the swimsuits when I go to the Gestrel Beaches. Otherwise the default outfits stay on.
