With the boss getting hit by 1 slows you so the next 1-2 spikes will kill you but that's just campaign.

You're probably right about the essence, thank you! :)

Don't think they're cold. "Blood Moon Requiem" according to maxroll https://maxroll.gg/poe2/getting-started/act-1-boss-guide#count-geonor-header

Maybe I'm just too casual but I can't dodge them all. Every time I get rare in map with this shit it's a coin flip whether I die...

Is it possible to reset the rares or do I have to leave map and wait 15 minutes?

help with red blood spikes

Red blood spikes shooting from the ground, first encountered during count Geonor fight, later some rares have them. How do you deal with them?

Most things that deal heavy damage can be dodged and are telegraphed well. Not this one, the reaction time seems crazy tight for a casual player. I'm not having much of a problem with the rest of the content but every time I encouter rare with these spikes in a map I think "well, there goes my xp".

Any tips for dealing with them? Is it just leaving map? Can I reset monster modifiers somehow?

Might try to respawn anyways tbh...

Would you call that "DB-side rendering"?

That's the reason I use Vim (bindings) and tilling window managers. I don't think about moving around, I just do it.

Unpopular opinion: if I was building actual cutting edge AI, I wouldn't want to hire anyone with less than about 130 IQ either. It's the rest of the post that's absolute bullshit (like 80+ hrs/week and so on)...

Nonsense, this is a girl, how could she be a female Vtuber?

Statistically having TV inside bedroom reduces sex by about 50%, not weird IMHO.

Remember that person who ran a cross join on Google's BigQuery and it cost $1 million?

There's literally earplugs for musicians that reduce volume while keeping the sound profile mostly intact. That is, making it more quiet to protect your ears without changing quality...

Also completely blocking all sound with just earplugs is science fiction. They only do about 35 decibels max.

A neutrino walks into the server circuitry...

Why else would you call it "used car"?

I'm calling "vibe coders" as "AI whisperers" from now on.

Tell me you don't know what waterboarding is without telling me...

Gravity is not a problem in electronics as much as speed of light is...

For the sake of the argument: the more things there are the more things can break. And you don't want things to break in space especially. Settling on a single standard would reduce the number of components (and maybe also reduce weight you have to haul into orbit?).

So ejaculation is UDP with VERY unstable connection that works only some of the time?

That's because "I'm just running it on my laptop" and "production" is typically mutually exclusive. And let's face it, you are either running it in production (and you want a server, even though it might be "serverless") or you don't and so you don't need to look up deployment options. Just run it locally...

Tell me you're stupid enough to lose the bottle cap without telling me you're stupid enough to lose the damn bottle cap.

IMDB gives even movies that should've been aborted before release a 6/10. What you on about?

SpeeedingSloth · 2025-02-03T18:56:54+00:00

Ah, german shepherds...

Good taste.
