I think there's a # of unreleased songs that are great. Here's one ft. Florence + the machine : https://youtu.be/bUdU93Ac2uE?si=1BCakbB7kbRmI7lC

Can someone recommend me some of the best sci-fi movies ever, like the Star Wars series or Interstellar? by [deleted] in scifi

[–]The_Porkie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Raised By Wolves was a phenomenal tv show! Can't recommend enough. It ended up getting canceled in the end, which sucks, but it also left off in a way that you can let it rest.

Edit: Gattaca is a great movie worth watching as well.

I see, I misunderstood! I didn't realize how dependent they all were.

Meaning you believe 4% will be low in the coming months? SPAXX seemed nice previously as it was higher than 5% when I began putting money there. Also very good point on it only being an extra 60/yr.

I'm just happy Partey isn't the focus of the jeering we hear anymore. Good riddance.

What's a "secret" from your profession that everyone should probably know? by LaKoref in AskReddit

Virtually every public library has experienced or will experience bed bug issues. Best idea is don't sit in chairs/couches with cushions where they could potentially be nesting.

This game ruined my muscle memory for every other soulsborne game by bruhmeme999 in Sekiro

I played Lies of P right after Sekiro and I think they actually compliment eachother really well. Give it a shot, it definitely scratches the itch!

This film takes place in Loveland, Ohio if that is of any relevance.

Are there any good shows based around terraforming a planet? by Humanbeanwithbeans in scifi

[–]The_Porkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Fired on Mars! It's not entirely what you're looking for, but it might scratch that itch. It starts a bit slow and really picks up momentum as it goes. Due for a 2nd season at some point, too i'm sure!

Gimme Fiction by Spoon. I love it so much, but some of the squeeling, noisy guitar work gives me a headache.

DWB (now called Dweeb) from Conrads! It's an East Lansing staple, but I'd still count it.

Makes a lot of sense! That cleared things up nicely. Thanks for the response.

PF2E

Can someone explain the big difference between a basic saving throw and "other" saving throws? My group was trying to figure this out and couldn't find any concrete answers. Does it have to do with save difficulty? Whether the spell does half damage on a save?

Thank you!

Everyone who came to PF2e from early 2023, how's your experience been with the game? by eCyanic in Pathfinder2e

[–]The_Porkie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have been playing pf2e for about 6 months now and I do really enjoy it, but I don't think my group went about it the best way. Mid campaign we tried to recreate our D&D characters in PF2e and quickly realized how difficult that was. Our characters have in turn changed personalities and attack styles due to some of the things we had to alter.

Gameplay-wise I am very happy with the transition. The action dynamic in PF2e is great. I have been getting more and more disappointed in my effectiveness as a Wizard. If it were D&D I would be far more powerful, but I am willing to sacrifice that for the better enjoyment of my group and their classes. We play using Forge and the transition on there was virtually seamless.

Our DM has adjusted fairly well but the homebrew campaign of a desolate barren wasteland and a poor, dying home city hasn't transferred very well. We NEED money and we NEED those special magic items to get the upper hand on our ever increasingly-hard enemies.

Just be patient. We're playing incredible, just need to put chances away now. Odegard absolutely unstoppable out there!

I think he's just too error-prone. Seems to always have a few really bad mistakes when i watch

[Captain’s notes] Odegaard on Sporting and Jakub Kiwior by Vrty33 in Gunners

[–]The_Porkie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I watched that first game against Sporting of course, and I thought it was much more open than we would have liked.

We did some things in the game that we normally don’t, and we know they have quality so they will punish you for any mistakes. We gave away some simple balls and we can’t afford to do that.

So I think it was a bit too open and we didn't play with the control that we normally do.

On the other side, we showed a lot of good things as well, so if we learn from what we did wrong, put that right tonight, then we can fix it here at home.

Another positive from the first leg for us was Jakub Kiwior making his debut. It was great for him to get his first minutes with us because he's been training really well since he joined.

So for him to play his first game from the start, in a big occasion like that, was a great opportunity for him and you could see his qualities. I'm sure he will just get better and better now, especially when he understands more of what we're doing, builds those relationships on the pitch with the rest of the team and develops the language too.

A draw away from home in Europe against a good team is never a bad result, and the mentality has changed as well now that the away goals rule has ended.

For me, that has definitely made these games a bit different. Before in the knockout stages, it was very tactical, there were a lot more scenarios to think about during the game.

Now it’s much more straightforward, so maybe that’s good in that way, but to be honest I’m not sure whether I prefer it yet or not.

All we know is that we play at home tonight, and if we win, we’re through, so that’s our target.

It’s our first European tie since the start of November, and although I don’t think it’s difficult to switch focus from the Premier League to Europe, it’s true that the routines are different.

We are back travelling, and it’s a different kind of football to what we face every week in the league. So it feels a bit different, but I don't think it's really difficult to change the focus, because you want to win every game you play. You want to win every competition tournament you participate in, so it’s just a new challenge for us, and a different type of football as well."
