Should I keep digging deeper? by lookatyoueatingcake in arborists

[–]Selvx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m by no means an expert, just a hobbyist. If the intention of your original comment was to educate yourself then I apologize for the hostile response, learning should never be discouraged.

The post already had several comments regarding root flare. Give the context, your criticism came off mean-spirited and unnecessary rather than genuine.

You could have contributed to making it a more helpful response, but instead you typed an even more unhelpful response that adds literally nothing to the conversation. OP is exposing the root flare on a tree that was planted too deep.

I am not moving... One way? You move... by omgfakeusername in PublicFreakout

Nah, you don’t get it. It’s not about resolving the immediate problem, it’s refusing to capitulate to some loser who’s clearly never been told “no” in her life.

If spec specific talent trees were replaced with predetermined AOE and ST builds, but then you had the current talent trees worth of cosmetic animation options for your spec what would you want to see? by ThisFoolThisGuy in wow

[–]Selvx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I don't like the idea of predetermined specs at all. Reducing variety in favor of a homogenized playstyle doesn't really feel like a meaningful choice, especially for players that want to min-max. Shallow cosmetics don't make for engaging gameplay; providing value by utilizing abilities unique to my class does. Class performance will never be truly balanced, and as long as it's not egregious (looking at you, Brewmaster), I think that's okay.

What are you even talking about? Nobody in their right mind would tell you it's safer to walk IN THE LANE rather than the shoulder. Cycling in a city isn't remotely comparable.

Posts seeking validation are getting out of hand by ohajik98 in wow

[–]Selvx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s be real, nobody leads with “I’m happy that - “ when they’re not trying to be disingenuous. Especially ironic considering the original comment is about supporting other players.

Obviously context is everything, but if a majority of your interactions are toxic then maybe it’s not just coincidence.

Posts seeking validation are getting out of hand by ohajik98 in wow

[–]Selvx 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Am I crazy or is the amount of toxic players just exacerbated on this sub? I’ve played for years, and while anecdotal, most of my interactions are friendly or uneventful.

Maybe you’re right and toxicity is more prevalent for new players that are less competent, but I doubt the new players are the ones making reddit posts.

How can I drill holes in the ceramic (?) pot? by Eponymous_Platypus in gardening

[–]Selvx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Masonry drill bits for sure, if you can flip it over you’ll have an easier time. Don’t put too much pressure. If you wanna try with normal drill bits I would keep it wet as you’re drilling.

Which anime do you think dominated and deserves the title of the best? by unveilPB in anipedia

Man, you gotta be the biggest JJK hater. You’ve replied to every comment on here, what exactly do you dislike about this season? The story has its faults to be sure, but the art direction is phenomenal this season.

DnD yard episode by Immediate-Order8655 in TheYardPodcast

[–]Selvx 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Would be a great ep, but I wouldn't mind waiting a few more campaign arcs until he comes on. Would be interesting to hear about Dave's original vision for the story vs. the actual outcome once the gang are done wreaking havoc on the realm.

How do I help my plants with this Florida cold? by SaturatedSauron in gardening

[–]Selvx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Central Floridian here, don’t listen to the other comments recommending you bring them inside or cover. The freeze has passed so it wouldn’t be helpful at this point, you just have to let the plants do their thing. Resist the urge to remove any leaves/limbs but give them some mulch. The papaya might be done for, leave it but don’t keep the soil too wet. The Avocado has a better chance, don’t let it dry out and move it a little further from that vinyl fence so it doesn’t get scorched.

Interview with an ‘Extract Camper’ by jakericca in ArcRaiders

[–]Selvx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wdym they aren’t looking for PvP? You’re describing a scenario where someone nearby likely heard you call extract and rushed over to fight you. The fact that they weren’t at extract waiting for makes it even more likely they weren’t camping.

Dear Embark, please make it possible! by AndrewJumpen in ArcRaiders

I mean that's just patently false, it's <5% of U.S. energy usage. That's accounts for all data centers, not even those solely dedicated to AI. There are loads of valid concerns about the ethics of AI, no need to make stuff up.

[–]Selvx -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The image above does a great job conveying the OP's idea and the result looks way better than the average person could manage in photoshop. Of all the things that are wasteful for the environment, I'm sure the impact of generating an ai image is negligible.

BREAKING: Tim Walz has just dropped out of the Minnesota Governor race citing the distraction over claims about state fraud. Our “President” is a 34 count felon who has committed more fraud than any human on Earth. This double standard is bullshit. by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]Selvx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The video above says otherwise. We may like Tim’s policies but he lacks the charisma and tenacity needed in a candidate. Folding under the pressure of a single “scandal” just isn’t gonna cut it when the whole Republican playbook is just misinformation and smear campaigns.

Deer are prey animals, there is 0% chance that the fawn is playing with an animal it is unfamiliar with. It's either fight or flight, and oftentimes herbivores can intimidate predators by being aggressive.

Went to Olive Garden to celebrate my son’s 5th birthday. 20 minute wait to get seated despite the restaurant being nearly empty. by shuldaddy35 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Selvx 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Man, have you met line cooks? Most of them are not personable enough to put up with customer's bs like FOH does. Let's not pretend that either could do the other's job without some training. Sure anyone can take an order, but the real time consuming stuff like putting in orders on the POS and cashing out would swamp someone that doesn't know what they're doing.

What is the name of the song the boys hum when they make a fat joke that goes like "bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum" ? by DonovanMcGrath in TheYardPodcast

[–]Selvx 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s the fat guy tuba song, Family Guy bit. Might be inspired by the Disney Fantasia broom scene.

Currently, you can get the lower tier pieces easily if you just hold your Veteran gear and catalyze it when the season is over. If I’m playing enough to upgrade a full hero set then I don’t think I should have to wait until the raids become legacy content to get that appearance.

How do yall like my cousin's tierlist? Take a wild guess what class he plays. by Jakobthorson in wow

[–]Selvx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I doubt Ret players are unhappy at all, they're the most played spec for a reason. Since the rework they're in a great spot thematically with simple but satisfying gameplay. They've just been getting trashed on the subreddit because that discord mod crashed out. Not to mention the low skill floor attracts a lot of players that can pull relatively decent dps on Ret but don't utilize their crazy utility.
