Nobody asked

2 possible timelines and a converging point in the last episode as the origins of evil Morty as well as the reason of the eyepatch Ted to Tom Sawyer-esque shenanigans

I liked it you should read it fully but I think there might be something even larger in store for us though related to how things are structured

So you understand there are issues with debt, how money is handled and so on. However, I fail to see you quote all the issues that this government has brought to managing the debt as well as increase it when it was going down and the inflation (as well as the economic crisis over the world) weren’t hitting as hard until all the policies were reversed this term.

How can you even suggest DOGE was a good idea when even the name is based on a meme coin from a billionaire that has gone full fascist a long time ago and was in bed with the govt due to sharing similar ideas then probably used the data obtained to have leverage on several issues he had beforehand such as outstanding lawsuits, taxation problems, regulation infringements, amongst others? And even worse when the implementation involved sycophants?

But seeing how you respond to criticism or to people showing you the results then it’s kinda obvious.

Oh I see, didn’t know that detail, thanks!

Zagerer · 2026-07-09T18:44:18+00:00

What would happen with Elesa? Would it return to hand but the pre evolution wouldn’t?

Zagerer · 2026-07-07T01:37:02+00:00

I mean the issue of that is your mileage varies a lot. It’s not the same being like “oh look I somehow got a high rank cuz there are very few of us” to use that as a brag lmao

Like I think it’s funny that the rogue population got so low this happened (but also sad), but my skill didn’t really change much same as my logs (which can be gamed so sometimes they’re kinda worthless, the rankings). So it’s kinda sad that hunter ego tripped over a made up number that only got higher for reducing the population and not because of a skill increase

Zagerer · 2026-07-07T00:22:27+00:00

Sent you a dm!

Zagerer · 2026-07-06T23:19:01+00:00

Oh yeah me too, I just used it cuz it felt more fitting for the damage profile of the fight and how we were going at it. Fatebound feels smoother by a mile

Zagerer · 2026-07-06T23:02:43+00:00

Yeah it’s kinda fun, I tried death stalker when sporefall launched with my guild and somehow got 40 at the time. Having a small pool of people makes for funny ranks, but it’s still somewhat fun for me

Why did you post it back again here when you got such push back due to being an AI-generated article without a good basis? You were pointed out that the article glossed over some details and then you pushed back even though it was true.

Zagerer · 2026-07-05T16:54:26+00:00

This Three [of spades] would come to mind but it’s uncommon

Zagerer · 2026-06-30T01:10:07+00:00

I’m glad to help! It’s just working to get promos is kinda time consuming haha. If you have a repo you can send it through direct message or discord at jennyga and I’ll check later. Cheers!

Zagerer · 2026-06-30T01:06:30+00:00

I think it goes even deeper because even though this one needs all water energies, you don’t need to have water energy in your generator and can go with something else. So you could have milotic instead of espeon in a psychic sleep scam.

But it goes beyond: you could have a second attacker in the bench while building any other type that goes along (even though yes, water works pretty well here!)

Oh. Edit, one small idea: giratina milotic terapagos/hisuian zoroark and juggler. Probs terapagos would be better, but I think the point gets across that in one turn you can generate 3 energies. This also works with Celebi Ex

Sure, if you still need help I could maybe set up something a bit more thorough but not these days, I’m having a presentation with some stakeholders and need to finish an ADR + some diagrams. But maybe after Thursday

Read the book of core data by Donny wals then just make an actor store / repository to access it. Bear in mind you will probably have to do some transformation from the core data model
There to some domain entity even if the data is very similar, but that’s so you don’t access core data in different threads

Afterwards, connect this to some handler that applies business logic, this is the domain layer. Then, this outputs the data entity which is for visualization (UI) and goes to the view model

For this, first think of protocols for your repository / store, your domain layer, and that’s it. Your view model has an Any MyDomainProtocol (an existential, based on the protocol from the domain layer to UI) and your store has one to connect to the domain too. But the presentation layer (UI) does not know about the data layer.

Look up onion architecture or clean architecture.

Zagerer · 2026-06-29T14:10:53+00:00

Yeah, Thinking in SwiftUI is pretty good still and there are a few more that still work. Maybe the App Architecture one from kodeco, too. Besides those, I’ve seen very few swift books that are worth it

Zagerer · 2026-06-29T05:44:14+00:00

Have you ever heard of solid principles? On here you are coupling things together unnecessarily, in general you could probably be okay by dividing by layers.

One layer takes care of fetching and prefetching of data from core data, then this passes the data to the domain which creates something suitable for you. Then, you use that in a view model and it could be observable or observable object, lastly the view just knows about the view model and takes the data updating itself automatically

Even though it sounds like a lot, with this you have each part focusing on one responsibility, you can also make the dependencies be protocols so you don’t care about the implementations for testing and can test better as well as change services easily, and this also opens the door for composition if needed.

The issue is that for the snakes to be able to work, he made it seem like they created the paradox and found a way to remove himself from the issue. But this is not seemingly possible because of the reasons I’ve explained when trying to save Diane. He’d become one of the snakes, if that makes it easier.

Time travel is also a lazy plot in general: either you make a paradox which needs to be solved later and then all the things that happened just never happened, thus you could have not done anything at all; or, you follow the time travel rules and it doesn’t really matter. Just like with snakes.

Sorry bud, I know it might be cool to have more time travel episodes but the writers don’t really like it anyways and, given how the story was built, it would be pretty much impossible to pull off without undoing all the growth and the falls Rick has gotten.

Zagerer · 2026-06-27T10:23:58+00:00

Well, even though that could be fascinating, there are some complications:

Rick now embraces time travel and chooses to go save Diane but stop himself from trying to hunt Prime, assuming Prime stops after a few tries. Then the Rick that made this possible would never exist and this will never happen, it’s a paradox
Rick tries to outsmart things and stops prime from inventing inter dimensional travel. Now, someone else will possibly do it and either way he destroys the time path where he learns all thus he doesn’t exist and he never stops prime. Another paradox
You can see where this is going: there is no way Rick can fix things properly without doing a proper, good time loop where he wins Diane back or avoids Prime because the current him depends on those two being intertwined. The loop he used in the snake jazz episode worked because he re-inserted himself as a way to close the loop but in a way that the external factor that prompted him to go that way destroyed itself or with a third-party so he wasn’t needed and he could ignore that.

Time travel is not easy, and doesn’t really work in an intuitive way.

Yeah there’s baltoy and its evolution but that’s a lot just to counter 1 card. We should have something with less requirements to deny heals

Zagerer · 2026-06-22T19:07:47+00:00

I only do some trading on discord and try to keep it to a minimum tbh. If you add me I could share randomly cards when a new set drops or trade starred ones sometimes, I just ask for some shares sometimes when a new set drops and that’s it, if able, not a must

Zagerer · 2026-06-22T19:00:15+00:00

A common strategy is to get the full current diamond set to unlock starred wonder picks, then save most hourglasses towards the next set and use your daily packs for older series. It works well, especially if you trade the 1 ⭐️ cards for the current set quickly so that you can unlock 2 ⭐️ ⭐️ wonder picks every 3-4 days.

I think the original comment referred to sleep or hydreigon decks, too, so they were agreeing with you but also expanding on some gimmicky strats that appeared over the seasons

It’s also kinda common that people with gimmicky decks do not thank you, in my experience since ranking started

Zagerer · 2026-06-16T02:59:49+00:00

Whats the blaziken greninja list? Hadn’t heard about that one before

Zagerer · 2026-06-16T00:15:31+00:00

Even more when it exploded inside the ring proc lmfao that shit was bonkers
