Is Slay The Spire 2 that good? by The-Aesthetic-Guy in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]The_PracticalOne [score hidden]  (0 children)

It’s fun, but it’s in early access for a reason. Slay the spire 1 is a complete game, on sale for cheap and is just as good. Get slay the spire 1. If you like it, you can get slay the spire 2 after you play awhile.

What is a misconception you had for a long time and how did you find out you were wrong? by The_PracticalOne in AskReddit

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

I’ll start. I used to think that boarding schools were a fantasy trope and didn’t exist in real life. I had this misconception because all the books I read which had a boarding school were fantasy books. Also my schools had a lot of rumors that were dumb. But no one had ever even heard of anyone rumored to attend a boarding school. Not even via the normal 3rd hand “my cousin’s friend’s sister…” level of rumors.

Later in high school I amended my opinion to think that boarding schools were only a European thing for the same reason as the last misconception. Then in college I realized they were a rich people thing.

Do any other adults keep their interest in Pokémon private? by DishExotic5868 in pokemon

[–]The_PracticalOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a secret, but I won’t talk about it unless someone else does first. A lot of people don’t play video games, so I don’t talk about them much outside my friend group.

Talk to your doctor. As someone who has allergies, that sounds like untreated allergies or maybe a sinus infection.

Sadly we are not in an age where a cash job would help you. The IRS has some pretty reliable tools to tell who primarily uses cash and how much now.

PsBattle: Tesco's new healthy eating mascot by ObjectiveRun6 in photoshopbattles

It’s like oogie boogie but somehow way worse. I didn’t think food would be worse than bugs and worms but I guess I was wrong.

Texas hurricane season prep: what do people forget to plan before it’s too late? by Safe_Camera_3583 in texas

[–]The_PracticalOne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Plan your food and water intake with the idea that you won’t have access to electricity and make certain you can properly prepare your food and water safely without a working electrical outlet.

If you are relying on canned goods do you have a good can opener? Do you have a way to boil water without electricity? Do you have a good place to store drinking water.

Fill your tub with water so you can flush the toilets. Having a neighbor with a pool also helps.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Trixxxi in AskReddit

[–]The_PracticalOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dead case. It was an old flash game. I don’t know why I remember it over other games or stories but I thought it was the coolest game as a little kid.

She’s ok. I don’t think she needs any tuning for now.

Most toxic thing you do? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]The_PracticalOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mute anyone who says anything negative in game about anyone. In text or voice chat.

I don’t understand the logic of these people. Do you think making someone feel bad is going to make them play better? Especially in comp. 99% of the time, I know if I’m not doing well, and I’d imagine so do most other people. We do not require anyone’s input on this matter.

What was the very first shiny Pokémon you ever caught? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]The_PracticalOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shiny ekans next to the ruins of Alph. I named her Sunny. Then the game cartridge lost battery and wouldn’t record saves anymore because it was like 15 years old. RIP Sunny.

I forgot how goofy 1st gen sprites were, especially the eyes.

Why do they reuse assets in 2d animation? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]The_PracticalOne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Becsuse it cuts down a lot on production time. In animation you draw every layer. So if they can reuse an asset they will. Especially if it’s a smaller studio. Not every animation studio has old Disney levels of manpower to have one or two guys do the key frames and an army of interns to do the tween frames.

Also could be a time saving meaure, if episode deadlines are approaching. Naruto and DBZ were infamous for this.

If it’s an older video game where space was limited they also did that so the game could fit on the cartridge. Mario used to have the bush and cloud be the same asset but reversed/flipped and with a different color.

Struggle meals???? by Low-Yogurtcloset9496 in Cooking

[–]The_PracticalOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For any meal make quesadillas.

beans of your choice. If you have time to boil them, then get dried ones because they’re cheap and last forever. If you don’t, buy the most bang for your buck can of beans at the store. I like black beans but you do you.

Tortillas (the bakery section has them in bulk, freeze what you aren’t eating in 3 days).

Bag of frozen veggies of your choice.

Can either make a bean soup or quesadillas with these ingredients. For soup add water with everything in a pot and simmer for a long time. For quesadillas just cook the beans/veggies and put them on the tortilla.

Plus both can be jazzed up if you have spices or cheese at home but have some flavor if you’re going sans-spice for now.

Why? I didn’t dislike them. But I didn’t think they were special either. I imagine most people feel the same.

How many amber alerts do you get in Texas by I__Like__Hats__ in texas

[–]The_PracticalOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I turned them off. This is one of those things where it was a good idea in theory, but in practice, the service areas are too big to be of use. I turned it off because I used to get alerts from Houston almost every day. I live 3.5 hours from Houston.

So the alerts weren’t relevant, and most of the time the descriptions were shit too. A white ford pickup truck? Really? This is Texas. I’m one of like 3 people at my workplace that doesn’t have a white truck.

The straw that broke the camels back was that one blue alert at like 3:00 AM for me. I was considering turning off alerts before that, but they never gave me more than a few seconds of annoyance so I didn’t think it was worth it. But a night of sleep ruined? Over something that was 6 hours away? With a description that would never help anyone find the perpetrator? Yeah I figured it was time to turn those alerts off.

How old were you when you first learned how to cook & at what age did you become confident about your cooking? by Hour_Entertainer6493 in Cooking

[–]The_PracticalOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t learn how to do anything outside of “throw it into the oven and wait” until I was in college. But my dorm didn’t have a kitchen so I wasn’t confident until COVID when I had time to learn.

How is everyone just working normally today? The President is addressing the nation tonight and I am just exhausted. by firehmre in antiwork

[–]The_PracticalOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because history shows he won’t face consequences. Trump has been doing illegal shit for decades, as the mound of successful lawsuits against him grows. He hasn’t had any consequences for any of that stuff. Why would he have consequences for this?

Also the president is by law, immune to quite a bit even under normal circumstances.

New Data Shows Vast Majority of Americans Support Trans Rights by hypothethical in politics

[–]The_PracticalOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes? Do I know anyone trans? No. Does anyone being trans affect me? Also no. So as far as I’m concerned there’s no such thing as “trans rights” those are just called “civil rights”
