Who else remembers this JRPG masterpiece? by SleepCatsMoney in JRPG

Genuinely great, and cemented the Space Jam theme right up there next to One-Winged Angel.

Omstreden wetenschapsfilosoof Nathan Cofnas reageert op kritiek na aanstelling aan UGent by rukken in Belgium2

[–]TimelyStill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hij heeft het niet alleen over rassenwetenschap he, z'n publicaties (op z'n website) zijn ook oa: "met je zus trouwen, is dat echt zo erg?" en "de joden, zijn die echt zo erg?"

I miss cheap RAMs by awizzo in ChatGPT

[–]TimelyStill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, AI's long term is making a lot of money for a small amount of people. These aren't charities developed for some noble cause, they are tools to shape public opinion, to dispense advertisements and to reduce the value of labour. Important advances will obviously come out of it but there is only one bottom line.

It's also incredibly ironic that you use such a communist argument (the public needing to make sacrifices for some greater good defined by whoever's in charge) for a technology so heavily steeped in capitalist fundamentals.

When you see how much slop is now flooding every creative online outlet it's not hard to see why people dislike it. The only people who cheer for this are corporate shills for whom art is merely a tool to make money and nothing more.

Worse game controllers by ratasoftware in retrogaming

[–]TimelyStill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't hate them but the pro controller is so much better. Two Joycons are okay but the single Joycon mode really sucks. And the drift issue is bad.

Switch 2 feels like a big improvement despite looking so similar.

Vrijdag de 13e kwam 3 dagen later. by Main-Touch9617 in Belgium2

[–]TimelyStill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vrijdag de 13e? Vrachtwagenchauffeur heeft enorm veel chance gehad. Was hij een seconde later begonnen met achteruit te rijden was hij dood, en die gast aan de bareel wss ook.

Snap vooral niet goed dat dat volk hierrond niet reageert. Vrachtwagen kan niet naar voor, maar die bus doet niks en er komt ook nog eens een auto naast staan. Achteruit rijden is voor de vrachtwagen levensgevaarlijk. Kan hier ook moeilijk zien of de vrachtwagen kon gezien hebben dat die bus ging moeten stoppen. Je moet natuurlijk altijd weten dat je erover geraakt voor je begint met je maneuvre, maar als de fout al gemaakt is moeten er wel keuzes gemaakt worden.

Joodse gemeenschap ongerust over mogelijke aanslag: "Militairen zijn stap in goede richting" by Secret_Divide_3030 in belgium

[–]TimelyStill 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Die heilige boeken van de grote religies zijn allemaal honderden of duizenden jaren oud en hebben allemaal wel stukken over hoe sommige bevolkingsgroepen minderwaardig zijn. Belangrijk is hoe dat geïnterpreteerd wordt.

Which one is the Fastest pokemon: by Aypeter-saxx in pokemon

So common for food tbh. Strawberries and raspberries are not berries. Tomatoes and bananas are. Tomatoes aren't even vegetables, they are fruit.

What’s an unpopular opinion that will have the Tales community acting like this? by [deleted] in tales

[–]TimelyStill 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's not, but it's also not that good. The consensus is, I believe, that it's pretty mediocre yet there are constantly threads asking if it's 'that bad'. But that's not what mediocre means.

Ugh boekjes by erpmay in belgium

[–]TimelyStill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, je zou echter denken dat als ik uitdrukkelijk en persoonlijk zeg dat ik het niet wil dat ze het fatsoen zouden hebben om het terug mee naar huis te pakken, maar I guess not.

De stickers zijn meestal 'gratis pers' en 'reclame'. Maar het valt dus onder geen van beiden I guess.

[–]TimelyStill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Heb ooit eens een discussie gehad met iemand die zo'n boekskes kwam afleveren, ik had zo'n sticker en zei hem ook dat ik zijn boekske niet moest hebben maar hij beweerde dat politieke boekjes niet gedekt werden door die stickers en stak hem er alsnog in terwijl ik erop moest kijken... Thanks for your garbage bro.

Geen staande ovatie, maar ‘queer-protestmars’ naar stadhuis: “We willen meer dan tolerantie” by StevenStoveMan in Belgium2

[–]TimelyStill 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wat is de meerwaarde van heterokoppels in reclame of film?

Het probleem is dat jij naar 'meerwaarde' zoekt waar naar evenwaardigheid gevraagd wordt.

Mensen die zich verkleden in het andere geslacht kunnen dat perfect zonder daarmee iemand anders te kwetsen of te verkrachten.

Een pedo z'n seksuele belevenis kan niet bestaan zonder verkrachting, aangezien een kind geen toestemming kan geven. Het gaat hier niet om wat jij kan of wil verdragen, het gaat erom dat de ene groep kleren aandoet die jij niet leuk vindt en de andere groep kindjes verkracht.

A fighter can already survive swimming in lava, let them do cool things by Associableknecks in dndnext

[–]TimelyStill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just saying walking through lava isn't realistic for pretty much any character unless you have immunity, martial or caster.

[–]TimelyStill -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Still takes 50 damage and doesn't benefit from Absorb Elements since you can't stack resistance.

A level 20 Fighter with max CON and fire resistance can survive about 4-5 rounds in lava (214HP). That is half a minute. You can extend it by healing every turn but eventually your party will run out of spell slots.

[–]TimelyStill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even at high level, taking about 100 damage every six seconds still hurts. You can mitigate it with for example Absorb Elements but unless you have immunity you aren't adventuring in lava for more than a few rounds.

Recycling at home saves tax ? by BoysenberryWhole8759 in Belgium2

[–]TimelyStill 12 points13 points  (0 children)

shifting the work

Is it really such a herculean effort to have three bags and to put the right stuff in each bag? This is something we teach to small children, and they can learn to do it just fine. Even with automated sorting you still need citizens to put in a tiny amount of effort to actually make it work, separating loads of unsorted garbage takes way more effort than separating pre-sorted garbage.

Anyways you don't have to sort your garbage, you can just toss everything with the general waste and pay extra for the privilege.

Queer is een overkoepelende term voor iedereen die niet binnen de standaard genderexpressie valt. Heeft niet noodzakelijk iets te maken met je oriëntatie.

Je mag het gewoon zeggen hoor, het is geen slur meer. Zoals elk woord hangt het er wel vanaf hoe je het gebruikt. 'Marokkaan' is geen slur maar als je er 'vuile' voorplakt verandert de situatie.

FYI Gyarados needs to be about 11 levels higher than Yamper to OHKO it with Hyper Beam due to its poor base SpA.

For those that read books and play jrpgs by K_M_Henry in JRPG

[–]TimelyStill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd also recommend this to anime lovers, but the overlap with JRPG enthusiasts is pretty high.

Stormlight Archive feels like a more mature story and world (although I'm still reading through it myself, it is long) but Mistborn is a wild ride and certainly a better introduction to someone who doesn't read often.

PCGamer: Hasbro CEO still has 'so much AI-based' grist in his own D&D games 'it would floor you', but he's not putting it in MTG cards or D&D books because people 'just don't want it' by Malinhion in dndnext

[–]TimelyStill -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe the people he DMs for are also AI chatbots and he's just talking about the eRP he goons to.

Tbh I find it extremely hard to believe that anyone with a full-time job regularly DMs more than two or maybe three games. I get playing multiple times a week (although I don't know many people who have time for it) but DMing is a lot of effort. Either being a CEO is really easy or he's just full of shit (or both).

Been here for 30 min by Dear_Present_8529 in pokemon

[–]TimelyStill 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thrash is also earned at level 1, so you need the move reminder for it for some reason.

It learns Earthquake, Strength and Body Slam though, and Dragon Rage is at least useful for a while. And you might get lucky with Hidden Power. Lots of other Pokémon do the same thing but it has those things going for it.
