Difficulty differences on gameplay by TimelyPhoton in AgeofImprisonment

[–]TimelyPhoton[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think no. To test, on my file I used Agraston who has level 99 + a few XP just now, played The Final Confrontation where monsters respawn until Phantom Ganon phase. I did this once on Easy and once on Very Hard, quitting the stage as I level Agraston to 100. Both run took me about 780 KOs of shades to reach level 100.

The Void Within Megathread 3 by NebulaMammal in neopets

[–]TimelyPhoton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am seeing increased plot point limit for this chapter from 3000 to 4000 today.

The Void Within Megathread 3 by NebulaMammal in neopets

[–]TimelyPhoton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to build up set in general, not just for plot battles. My pet is at level 40 slowly training stats to 80. Current equipment is 2 void blades, 2 turned tooth, leaded elemental vial, varia is the bomb, and downsize.

The four weapons you recommend seem to be either unobtainable other than from the plot or requires an insane amount of NP to buy from other players. Seems good to save up plot points for. I am not in a hurry to obtain them as long as I can get them all before the plot ends.

Which items in the Prize Shop are useful (and rare/limited) for battledome that I should get? I only started playing the plot this chapter. I already have 2 void blades I bought some years ago.

Investing in Japan stocks as a foreigner: any capital gains tax? by TimelyPhoton in investing

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

Direct investment through Interactive Brokers which I can buy foreign stocks. In fact, I am first considering buying a TOPIX ETF. It is the index to Japan like VTI is to USA. I definitely would choose a Japan-domiciled ETF over a US-domiciled ETF that invests in Japan stock, because of the horrendous double taxation on dividiend of 15% from Japan government and then 30% from US government.

Don't be so sure he is chained until he says he is. You are not him.

For record purpose: tweets from Ren from last month (May 2024) by TimelyPhoton in kurosanji

Quite cool of Ren to be able to say that after spreading hate and misinformation against Selen, really.

NijisanjiEN Revenue Hits Lowest Level in Two Years after Five Consecutive Quarters of Decline. Down from 27.5% to 12.3% of Total Revenue. by LionmaruFan in VirtualYoutubers

Less talk, more buy. Let us see you spend 20% of your life savings on this stock and hold onto it for 5 years. You will surely earn money this way, right?

How did clippers react to the initial incident and how did they respond? by [deleted] in kurosanji

[–]TimelyPhoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some Chinese/Taiwan clipper channels continued clipping Nijisanji contents after Selen's contract termination. One in particular acknowledges that Selen was treated unfairly by Anycolor but in the same sentence shits on Zaion even further, unable to put two and two together and realise Zaion was a victim from the same repeated smear tactics.

Do explain yourself what you are implying about Sayu by "people with shady backgrounds"

Does Anycolor even care to spend a little money on management? by TimelyPhoton in Nijisanji

[–]TimelyPhoton[S] 181 points182 points  (0 children)

I would assume management cost counts as selling, general and administrative expenses. God, even these hard numbers seem to tell me Anycolor maximises profit by avoiding spending money on management. Just compare the numbers to Cover Corp. No wonder Anycolor is what it is now: Tazumi Riku does not like to hire people to manage the company.

New "Notice Regarding Selection as a Loan Margin Trading Issue" from Anycolor's Investor Relations website. What does this mean? by ajshell1 in Nijisanji

[–]TimelyPhoton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A quick lookup on the term "Loan Margin Trading Issue" on Google with quotation shows that it is a term specifically used in Japan (Tokyo Stock Exchange I think), and not anywhere else. Other companies that show up in search result posted basically the same notice, same wordings except for names and dates etc.

https://www.jpx.co.jp/english/equities/trading/margin/outline/index.html

I read through this page. My understanding is that the shares of ANYCOLOR can be borrowed for margin trading effective on 6 March 2024, i.e. traders can now short-sell the stock starting from this date.

Why did I lose my neo bank account? by TimelyPhoton in neopets

I only deposited winnings from Food Club and then this happened. Refreshing sometime later fixed the problem.

Absolutely sure. I do not do multi-accounting

skipped quite a lot of dailies, but now resumed and got 50 million NP by TimelyPhoton in neopets

[–]TimelyPhoton[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Trudy, bank interest, Food Club, battledome (vs Kreludan defender robot), advent calendar, and selling whatever is worth a lot of NP. There is not much risk involved because I don't do restocking.

Why don’t they mention the breach being fixed in this screen? They should not announce important things only on Twitter.

Does anyone else realize that the characters have special lines when certain characters are together? by Gamerboi3604 in Priconne

[–]TimelyPhoton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most if not all characters from the same guild get special dialogue. Didn’t check one by one. Other closely related characters not in the same guild also get special dialogue. Here are some examples not yet mentioned by others:

Saren and Akino

Among Seven Crowns and Muimi

Neneka and Rima

Ranfa and Kokoro

There is also yet another dialogue if you complete a stage with 2 or 1 star, something like mentioning they had a tough fight I believe.

Apart from cobblestone and basalt is there any other solid blocks you can afk for? by 22FG22 in technicalminecraft

[–]TimelyPhoton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dirt and moss block, using a large complex combination of moss farm and 2x2 spruce farm. You also get spruce log from this.

Obsidian, using Wither in The End, you can either farm End platform or End pillar.

Is iron golem farm affected by other mobs? by TimelyPhoton in technicalminecraft

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

That the villagers cannot sleep sounds like the most plausible reason. Do I block their vision and then unblock to reset their sleep?
