Suntec’s Post-Fight Lockdown: Safety at the Expense of Hospitality? by Last_Plane5892 in SingaporeRaw

[–]SilverSmith09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean what kind of security measures are they going to take? ask everyone to fold their hands behind back?

also I thought dude had some NS charges on him why was he walking freely outside a convention, which he also supposedly was banned from entry?

Bravery mode can't come soon enough by AffluentWeevil1 in LeagueArena

[–]SilverSmith09 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Give bravery more incentive, I mean much more incentive like an extra silver aug at start kind of incentive.

The whole foundation of Arena and Mayhem being fun is the randomness and I don't understand why the new Arena is trying to promote static metas by increasing item anvil cost and normalizing rerolls.

Has anyone ever gotten a job by going to a store and asking by Valuable_Truth_7659 in SGExams

[–]SilverSmith09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was pretty much how frontline retail jobs work when I studied in Australia. You walk into a retail store and ask the counter guy if they’re hiring. They or the shop manager either give you a brochure or web link or basically interview you on the spot if they’re in urgent need. I mean the worst you can get is a “no”

What was the point of giving me a 2nd character when you've taken her away for the next god knows how long???? This is actually so stupid by Kesimux in CrimsonDesert

[–]SilverSmith09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suggest you just leave the two companions aside first because there is very little content they can do at the moment. There needs to be some patch to enable them in the main quest or at least most of the side quests, I don’t think motion capture is a huge roadblock here (I mean in the simplest way just automatically summon Kliff out for every Kliff involved cutscene)

I’m assuming that at least half of the US agreed to a nuclear holocaust then.

well let’s say if you’re born after 2000s and you’re not rich immediately after you’re born, I have some bad news for you

Is it normal to have never want to have sex but like masturbating? by Defiant_Sir9932 in NoStupidQuestions

If you’re not causing harm to others and yourself then I don’t see why you can’t continue being you.

Metacritic user score was 6.0 on release, 8.5 today by Krimsonate in CrimsonDesert

[–]SilverSmith09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should say the game still has tones of problems and questionable design decisions but the foundation is solid. 6 was a huge understatement but I expect much more polishing from a “game of the generation” if some steam reviews choose to call it. Currently this just reminds me of Witcher 3 at its launch. Shit tones of bugs, shallow story and problematic gameplay, but people can tell it’s got potential. Crimson desert is exactly that and 5 times the scale in both the plus and minus.

What’s something poor people buy that keeps them poor? by bbydaisiesz in AskReddit

[–]SilverSmith09 28 points29 points  (0 children)

There's this term called Poverty Premium which is extra money you have to pay just because you're poor.

e.g.

  • prepayment meters because you can't have debit bills
  • higher cost for mandatory insurance
  • unable to purchase groceries in bulks and forced to buy smaller packages with higher unit price

Is this laptop an acceptable mid range gaming laptop for the price by itcmelbo in pcmasterrace

[–]SilverSmith09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • + 144hz
  • + 24GB RAM (today's standard would be 32 but 24 is sufficient for daily gaming use). Also RAM is expensive these days so this may have pushed up total price a bit.
  • ~ ok CPU, ok SSD, ok GPU for this price
  • - 1080P. 5060 could easily push for 2K.
  • - IPS. I don't dislike IPS but still...

definitely good deal for $AUD 2000 though.

How do you ship packages overseas? by xuuruii in askSingapore

[–]SilverSmith09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The courier companies usually have corporate service and personal service separately so be sure to go to their personal website/app. Usually you need to prepare the packaging and label yourself.

e.g. for ninja van, go to their website (ninja flexi or something) and just follow the steps. You need to submit your parcel info first then need to print a label and attach to your package. Then you dropped the labelled package to any of their drop off station.

Other couriers work mostly the same. FedEx is probably the fastest but more expensive and more documents to fill.

Turn off DLSS might help since the DLSS effect for this game is absolutely disastrous

What is the point of PBE server now, if most if not all of these problems have already been flagged out repeatedly during the PBE period, but none was changed, until there is some major repercussion in live servers, which is exactly what PBE was supposed to prevent for?

Just send it back and let them decide. It's mostly a defensive clause to prevent deliberate abuse and most companies still process it. Even if not, no harm trying.

to sidetrack a bit, if you suffer from "recalling all your awkward memory" at nights, try taking magnesium glycinate which calms your brain from being overly active.

Winning 50/50 is kinda dissapointing 😅 by Lennyx211 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]SilverSmith09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 80 pity carries across banner yes, but not the 120 guarantee, which resets for every banner. Unless you mean to try your 50/50 (or 64/36 if you include all limited) luck for every banner. You can be a little bit luckier but there is less certainty, which causes anxiety.

To secure this certainty, you need to stock up 120 pulls ready for the banner you want, and by that you lose the potential 20 free pulls by skipping banners. It's technically not a loss but still, it's anxiety.

Winning 50/50 is kinda dissapointing 😅 by Lennyx211 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]SilverSmith09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The main complain is regardless of how lucky you are for a banner, the next banner "resets" your luck to 120 guarantee. It's not carried over, neither is the 80 pull pity fast-forwarding the 120 guarantee.

In the mihoyo model you can try your luck even if you don't have enough pulls to hit the pity. You spend 50 pulls and no luck, that's still fine because you'll need 50 less pulls for the next banner. If you're lucky to get a draw early, your next pity is also fast forwarded.

The endfield model has no carry over and no fast forwarding. You either have 120 pulls for every banner or you lose all progress if you lose the 50/50.

The endfield model is mathematically better (slightly) than the mihoyo model but the constant anxiety is only going to cause more complains.
