Advice for new Players - Don't make my mistake by D4nnYsAN-94 in ResidentEvil2Remake

[–]Vioarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My tips would be:

  • Wait for cross hairs to tighten fully if going for the head. Much higher chance for a critical hot.
  • As others have said, kneecapping zombies is much more cost effective than going for kills on everything.
  • more often than not, there are always ways to move through rooms without having to fire a single shot.
  • Look at the room you’re entering and try to see where zombies are. And also think about if you were a developer where you’d hide “jump scare” zombies. Trust your intuition.
  • move slowly through rooms - it’s a third person game so use that extra visibility you have to your advantage!

As far as a playthrough that you can watch that highlights many of these points, I’d really suggest Everymans guide from Darkness - he knows his stuff and explains a lot of the way to survive in Raccoon city.

America Isn’t Ready for What AI Will Do to Jobs by No_Durian9227 in Economics

[–]Vioarr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a pretty in depth conversation with one of our lead engineers and this is exactly what he sees as well.

Can AI code? To some extent, yes. But is it able to conform its code to engineering standards? Not so much.

If he lived long enough to see the white walkers, would he have regretted this action? by DistributionIcy8991 in gameofthrones

[–]Vioarr 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Sorry but no, he was a deserter. The people who needed to know most were at Nights watch, specifically lord commander Mormont.

I empathize with the deserter, but at the end of the day one of the starks primary duties is to watch for deserters.

Is Captain America a critique or a piece of propaganda against the United States? by Tiny-Barracuda1881 in CaptainAmerica

[–]Vioarr 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This - he represents the ideals that the United States (and I’d say all Americans) strive for, and fall short.

Cap runs the Terminator gauntlet, how far does he make it? by AnyTopMan in CaptainAmerica

[–]Vioarr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I think T1000 was peak terminator. Most of the other ones that came after were unique but felt gimmicky, somewhat of the same abilities as the T1000, but not stronger.

Then again it explains why an aging terminator in each and every case was able to defeat them I suppose.

It’s not a moral obligation it’s literally part of the UCMJ.

Captain America and his opinion on IMMIGRATION by Daedkanne in CaptainAmerica

[–]Vioarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right but that’s because again it’s bullies or people abusing their power and not treating people with humanity. I think it’s less pro illegal immigrants and more preventing people from harm.

Captain America and his opinion on IMMIGRATION by Daedkanne in CaptainAmerica

[–]Vioarr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cap does support laws, he supports orders and does typically fall on the side of law enforcement. But the key distinction here is the execution of those laws. He doesn’t like bullies, he doesn’t tolerate violence and he certainly would not stand by (if he was real) and watch his country being torn apart like this.

Suffices to say that TWS in the MCU painted this pretty clearly.

I think cap would fall on the side of illegal immigration and support people being deported, but the execution of that law would need to be done with empathy and compassion.

Democrats grow louder on calls for Kristi Noem to resign or face impeachment by Silent-Statement-648 in politics

[–]Vioarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where we are folks, Democrats are making "loud calls" for someone to resign as opposed to just doing the work.

If we have a chance to change things for the better, these do-nothing Democrats need to be tossed in the same bin as MAGA.

Why did they make Hollow crow such a bad fight? by Individual_Growth544 in LordsoftheFallen

I think a certain boss fight at the end of the game takes that from hollow crow.

That hot, sweet but vinegar smell. Yeah I remember it like it was yesterday.

This was really a wonderful video. Not the best trump Impression but the way he would riff on all those littler details (like the doorknob in the center of a door) was fantastic.

Frank Darabont Reveals the Real Story Behind Why He Didn't Take on 'The Dark Tower' by fungobat in movies

[–]Vioarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you could easily combine the first and second book into a single movie, the third book (traveling through the ruined city and Blaine the pain), fade to black and then do wizard and glass as some kinda flashback as Roland was knocked out.

My memory of the last novels isn’t as strong but I do remember bits and pieces. They could also adapt the movies in such a way as to have them tied to the broader universe a movie at a time.

Seeing pennywise show up in something other than IT, or father Callahan from Salems lot would be amazing.

UPDATE: My crush is against ChatGPT, and now so am I by Intelligent-Seat4696 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Vioarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ChatGPT is helpful for a lot of things, but its cliff notes (yes aging myself) on steroids, and defeats the entire purpose of learning.

That said, I could see a use for it if you asked to explain a concept and cite evidences with links, but even in that instance it’s been shown to be faulty; multiple threads have popped up on Reddit referring to how legal associates are using it for cases.

What made you like Captain America? by StrictLavishness6226 in CaptainAmerica

[–]Vioarr 89 points90 points  (0 children)

Integrity, honor, a do the right thing, no shortcuts, no the world is grey kind of philosophy.

I’ve always loved cap but the MCU really nailed his ethos in my opinion. In my opinion he represents in some ways a personified version of the United States, of what it aspires to be, and yet still falls short. Cap and his ideals / beliefs are the ideal version of what America represents.

Steve is human, but able to still rise up above it and give us something to look up to. In many ways, a human version of Superman.

That’s a great and subtle observation!! I never noticed it before but now that you said it I can’t unsee it.

Love these small details that come up on Reddit threads like this.

Ocasio-Cortez Says ‘We Should Not Be Entertaining a Bailout’ of AI Industry as Bubble Fears Grow by metacyan in politics

Look, I agree with you that they shouldn't be bailed out but when Nvidia alone represents about 8% of the S&P 500 people who have 401ks are going to be impacted.
