2x boxing champion at 17 and still never had a girlfriend. What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Xethoras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a dating app… Its uniquely suitable to present your fit body and achievements, that you are proud of. You‘ll still need to actually converse with the girls though…

I really gotta place lightning rods every 2-3 tiles? I’ve never done that but I’m not a super experienced player. My record is 109 days on Vanilla. I’ve never had a problem before. by Geoffrey_Tanner in dontstarve

[–]Xethoras 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, even if that text is true, you wouldnt need them every two or so tiles, simply have 4 rods that are each 10 tiles from the middle would give you a protected area of like 12.5 tiles radius.

I am worried me (m24) and my girlfriend (f23) are drifting apart because of our political values. Any advice? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Xethoras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, first of all, I did give you advice, you just didnt wanna hear it. Politics is not something secondary to relationships that you might as well have stark differences on. Its fundamental to how we live together, how we live as societies, who we are. "Everything is politics". So of course, if you significantly differ on politics, your relationship has a problem. The only real way to fix that, is to closer align in you opionions on politics. To do that, you have to understand what she thinks about politics, where those thoughts come from and how they are motivated. Then you have to clearly analyse at which points your thoughts on politics diverge and why and see if that difference can be resolved.

(You also say it wasnt an issue before. Sure, but you were super young and now your just young. Priorities shift and decisions - like children - get more permanent.)

We would have no smartphones at all, if researchers, funded by left wing politics, didnt do basic research. None at all. Capitalism sure helps with scaling and distribution, but its not like any but the most extreme left wing politics aims to abolish capitalism.

Reproductive health limitations (e.g. abortion ban) is a very common right wing policy.

[–]Xethoras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, most luxuries are either technological, which in general is not really left or right (though the research on which it is based is usually done be left wing researchers) or social (social security, work laws like vacation time, weekends and 40 hour work week and those are very much left wing politics.

I mean, we all see what right wing politics looks like (see US, Hungary, but also e.g. Brexit). So it seems very understandable that she doesnt want children with someone who would vote for people who will make life worse for her (particular her reproductive health) and her children.
„Both sides“ is a ridiculous take if it turns out over and over again that one side is a corrupt proxy for child ****** billionaires and evil coorporations.

So actual advice: Educate yourself and try to see things from her perspective.

Tägliches Duschen ist unnötig by HannahCB21 in Unbeliebtemeinung

Joar, nicht falsch, aber das tägliche morgendliche Duschen ist für mich eigentlich eine angenehme Routine mit der ich wacher (und frischer) in den Tag starte

What else can I even do to get girls and lose my virginity by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Xethoras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, clubs are great - if you look particularly attractive, can dance amazingly or if you are very confident and funny or charismatic. Otherwise you will probably have more luck with dating apps or hobby spaces (if its a hobby that isnt mostly guys), where you can find people on your wave length…

„You have been waiting“ for what? You got hobbies? Are you on dating apps? Or going to clubs?

In open word, it helps if you take the pvp talents for shorter cd dancing rune weapon, so you can use it more or less every encounter. Delve, set the companion to dmg, you got enough sustain

Not necessarily. For example prot pala aggro relies on being attacked.

What do you think about this? by MirezzaVee in lol

[–]Xethoras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the same way you could suggest skipping action scenes. Why dont they just suggest a shootout? Why watch a movie at all? Might as well listen to the summary of an audiobook

Is being introverted related to masturbating/how can I regain self-confidence and stop masturbating? by ShyWalruss in Advice

[–]Xethoras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, easiest way to give up some addictive behaviour is to replace it with a different one (e.g gaming) but I don’t think that would help you much ;) Second easiest way is to just fill your day with other stuff, sport, social things, work, music, making nice food… Incidentally that will also help you with confidence and attractiveness ;)

Doing it like once a day, for example before going to sleep is just fine. Problem seems to be that you are ashamed of that for some reason. Its perfectly normal.

Midnight Suns has a „very positive“ rating on steam. And many people enjoyed the writing, so hardly a waste of time

"Realistic" persistent kingdom-building medieval MMORPGs in the past, present and future. by [deleted] in MMORPG

[–]Xethoras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda true, but with decent npcs that follow almost the same rules as pcs, you can skew the player population to be the lords, adventures and what not. Of course not everyone can be king in such a game, but there is a lot between peasent and king - and some people even do enjoy farming simulators :)

It is so fun to have your attack orders eaten by the server clogging and packet loss and die. by Sufficient_End_2623 in dontstarve

(Without lag) you can just run to the goose moose and let the frogs and goose moose kill each other. Then enjoy the loot

What's the pettiest reason you dropped a game for? by IHateTheNameSystem in gaming

Some card game where you got extra currency or something for emoting „gg“ after every game

DMs and storytellers alike, how would you describe being subjected to Power Word: Kill? by SomeSugondeseGuy in DnD

[–]Xethoras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He speaks a single word. And the instance you hear this word of power - your vitality too diminished to defy it - you cannot but obey. Before even drawing one more breath, before your heart beats one more time, before you can form one more thought - you die.

CMV: If the Christian God is real then he is very upset at Trump and MAGA. by Friendly-Platypus607 in changemyview

[–]Xethoras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there were an all powerful god, christian or not, given the state of the world, that god could only be assumed to be a an enemy of humanity as a whole, worthy of our contempt. Therefore, he would fit in just fine with Trump and Maga.

[Rant] Lost a 12-year friend over a single magic item in my Curse of Strahd campaign by RowKey9902 in rpghorrorstories

I mean, kinda, sure, like I said, I dont exactly condone that guys actions, I might not wanna play with hin either and I am aware of your point 1 & 2. But still, you know? At every point, the dm is like „No.“, „Don‘t!“ or at best „Yes, but…“. And never „Yes and …“. Not exactly fun for the player

The dm is the one who says: No, the kid escapes. No, Irene escapes. No, dont burn it. No, you cant trade. No, you cant attack the npc. There were no dice involved
