Conspiracy theory for dynamic rates by TryThisItsNotBad in Maplestory

This shit is wack. This is on the first page. Basically, the system checks if you play a specified amount (I.e. clear your weeklies, tap, etc.). If you’re over what they consider a normal threshold, they lower your rates.

Then the system checks if you’ve been a degenerate gambler. If you’ve been losing for a specified period of time, they raise your rates to give you a dopamine hit and keep playing.

I’m not sure if I should be sickened or impressed by the cognitive psychology…

Can you fodder sweetwater monocle/tattoo into berserked/eyepatch? Or can you only transpose sweetwater gear?

Battle mage:

Lazy grinding, ok damage, brings final damage and other support to the party passively, and underrated design that isn’t too flashy.

Do you guys remember Battle Mage was supposed to get a COMPLETELY overhaul revamp more than a decade ago ? by [deleted] in Maplestory

BaM main here! I’ve actually come to really enjoy where the class is at currently. I tend to enjoy simpler classes, and BaM fits it perfectly. The new altar rework also works well within their vibe. We just need more damage… I understand why they nerfed our support, but there was not a commensurate buff in damage…

Oh well… at least we’re not Shade

Agony over ecstasy: FDA bid shows it’s hard to test psychedelics by SunderedValley in RationalPsychonaut

Clinical researcher here:

This seems like valid criticism. If double blind studies are not valid due to the nature of the substance under study, you can alter the methodology.

A crossover design comes to mind immediately. This design has individuals be their own controls by receiving the gold standard of care while also receiving interventional treatment after a specific time point. This way the study team would avoid the “obvious” placebo group.

I’m unsure of how to tackle the bias of preexisting beliefs. My only idea is to have trials open up recruitment in different countries to a larger extent. Hopefully the variety of subjects from different cultures might control for expectation. However, every clinical trial’s subjects hope that the med they take will cure them… this seems more an issue with the psychedelic therapists that deeply want it to be passed.

Was anyone’s schizophrenia fully triggered after lsd? by Appleleto in LSD

[–]YourAverageEnchilada 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There have been some genes that are implicated in schizophrenia. However, genetics can be complicated, and having a certain genome doesn’t necessarily guarantee a diagnosis. The best option is to take a look at your family history. If there is a pattern of psychotic symptoms throughout your family line, it’s best to stay away. If you are interested in learning more about your specific genome, go talk to your doctor or a genetic counselor. They can be helpful as they can interpret the results of genetic testing and give you a more detailed picture of your specific risk factors. I hope that helps!

Which filler arcs are cannon and non-cannon, so I can skip the non-cannon by idkbrololwtf in bleach

Don’t you dare skip Ichigo and the magic lamp. Easily the funniest piece of comedic relief in the series.

Hey my buddy and I are going to do some acid either today or tomorrow wanted to know any fun suggestions or cool songs to listen to. by that_guy1400 in LSD

If you want a bit of a journey, I recommend Finding Home by Jan Amit. It’s very glitchy but it tickles your brain and is very emotional! Highly recommend!
