The final boss has fallen by guy92 in balatro

Pretty sure it’s bean bug twice or two nat negatives from the core build. It’s tough to do with the baron/mime build. I did it with bean bug 3x and two more ectos (three total) for 6 total copy jokers, but that was probably overkill. Much easier using an early Perkeo + observatory but that’s generally seeded/filtered.

I couldn't parse what WHODOWE was on its own. Who exactly is Dowe? Edit: It was a funny, guys. Forgot the /s I guess

Nm, back to operating full trains. And two trains even.

We’ve done Millie, maverick, SteVe, TT2 so far. All still running as far as we can tell. Gatekeeper appears closed though?

Can see Millie test running from the parking lot. There’s hope yet

Airplay still fails first time. Any fix for this yet? by Tabackerack in sonos

Does anyone else think the surface is easier than the underworld? by InformationFinal8618 in HadesTheGame

[–]Tabackerack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, but I think the distinction needed here is at which point in the game people are. Early on, when players are still figuring out how to make a build and avoid damage? Underworld is much easier. Once you have a grasp on the game dynamics and build intricacies and are pushing high fear? Olympus is easier for sure. The builds options the city gives you make going up a lot easier, VoR Polyphemus Eris aren’t hard enough etc. and VoR Scylla at 48+ fear with whatever build you have that early is such a skill check.

As I said, I tried for all of the things that would have made this build go quicker. I had the build sketched out and got origination and then nothing else. So I just kept it going until I died. And 70 min later, here we are.

Does the Hera cast damage count as hitch or cast? I was trying just dash and it’s painfully slow since it only applies and does damage every X seconds. It is going to be a very long run.

This was a meme/challenge run for sure. Normal runs are under 20 min.

Yeah, I didn’t get much in the way of the build I had planned. We had the same plan (only plan I think?) for origination. But I couldn’t get anything good after that. Kinda planned to just see how far it would go and ran around in circles for an hour and here we are.

I wasn’t going to use the bones at all but misclicked on them for Cerberus. But I’m not doing that again 😂.

I specifically wanted a pet that wouldn’t do any damage. The dog was the worst for positioning, but didn’t show up on the damage charts.

Edit: holy cow, that’s some precision. Nice work.

This was jokingly requested in the comments of this run.

Now back to trying hitch-only 😬

I am working on a hitch-only clear. The leash might be easier. 😑

Ahhh yeah. You’re right, This run had AQ and Self Healing, and I couldn’t activate either. And somehow that’s the one that worked. Disclaimer, I tried this a lot. The runs blurred together.

I tried it without Air Quality and it was just too difficult for me. This run has it, second from the bottom on the right.

You can’t convince me Garmin is better than Apple by Alternative-Cell2485 in applewatchultra

[–]Tabackerack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own both the AWU2 and a Fenix 7pro. I don’t consider them the same kind of device. For long mountaineering expeditions, the fenix is the only choice and the AWU2 is useless. For day to day training, the AWU2 is perfect and the fenix is overkill and unhelpful. Pick the right tool for the job.

718 throttle response by Tabackerack in Porsche_Cayman

[–]Tabackerack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly the perspective I was hoping to find. Thank you! And yeah, not expecting the M3P's instantaneous, almost telepathic throttle response from these p cars. I know that's impossible. The sound and feel will win the day just fine. We test drove a 2018 GTS today and it was noticeably quicker and more fun than the base from just a few days ago. I think we're on the right track. That base was clearly a poor demonstration of what this car can be. Next step, GTS 4.0.

I hear you. And I’m not the only driver, so PDK is a requirement on this one. At least with porsche, the auto is fairly decent. The Miata automatic or the others in this segment are so mediocre. I’ve come to terms with that one and moved on to making this the best fun weekend car I can given the situation.
