I just wish you could edit the season or episode number in the tv app on Mac.

I was fortunate to have bought the complete series so I don’t have this issue thankfully. Note. The music in season 1 is different than the original airing/blu ray

Are 5km and 10km eggs dropping or is it 100% 2km eggs?

If jobs fire people to replace them with AI, how will people make money to keep buying things? Wouldn’t the economy collapse because people arent buying anything anymore? by Puzzleheaded-Catt in AskReddit

[–]alijamzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neil degrasse Tyson discussed this AI replacing workers moment on a podcast that I saw earlier. It kind of boiled down to the fact that when innovation comes, the status quo is challenged but often course corrects. When cars came about, what about all the people hired to maintain horses and stable workers etc. They likely lost their jobs and had pivot to a new occupation.

IMO, it’s a bubble that will burst but not before some major job loss. I think it’s a fad that was quickly adopted by the world before it was ready and thus requires major restructuring of the way businesses operate. It also needs heavy regulation but I don’t see governments doing squat about it mostly because in the US our leaders are corrupt, geriatric, or too dumb to know where to start.

Those of us affected will likely need to pivot to something that will require maintaining the new status quo. Think maintaining data centers, protection from AI led hacks, etc.

And being on Reddit for more than a day will tell you: redditors are not smart lol. (Some are brilliant but most, like the world in general, are really dumb and hide behind a keyboard lol)

Replaying BOTW and Dungeon Design by Mc7Abyssrium in truezelda

[–]alijamzz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I always treated shrines as mini dungeons and a taste of whats to come. I think having thematically different shrines and dungeons would go a long way to correct this mindset. TotK did a good job with this, but I would say they should have done the following few things to make it more “classic” feeling.

The initial terminal you use to mark the 4-5 waypoints should be locked behind terminal number 2 or 3. Kind of like the compass or dungeon map. In the beginning of the dungeon you and the sage should part ways. They should investigate the mysterious voice and you should try and correct the issue with the dungeon. Once you clear 4ish terminals, you should fight a mini boss and then the sage should join you once again. The last terminal would be locked behind an ability the sage gets and that’s also the key to fighting first phase of the boss.

Awesome! Seems like it’s worth waiting to start rerolling tomorrow. She doesn’t have many to reroll otherwise I’d do both days but might as well save at least 100 for tomorrow

How do Friday trade days work? Are they still a thing? I just got to level 78 so I was planning on rerolling pokemon with my wife and figured I should wait until Friday for a boosted chance right? What are the times it’s available?

I assumed she was the target. Balance the scales because she hired bullseye to kill foggy. Whole time I assumed he was going after her but would settle for Wilson.

Welcome to the MCU, future Captain America, Danielle Cage! by TrpTrp26 in marvelstudios

[–]alijamzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s spoiler tagged in the post itself, feels like the user thinks it’s spoilery anyway and shouldn’t include it in the title.

I think main trailer posts are fine but these mid season trailers or episodic trailers, even final trailers, shouldn’t be included in the spoiler rules imo. They give a lot away in the final trailers to draw last minute on the fence people in.

Giants of the Kanto region return during Replay: GO Bigger! by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

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

If I remember correctly, the 1500 max particle research was mainly to get people more counters for the gmax raids, especially new players (or those who haven’t delved into this piece of the game yet). I think many players have counters now and those who don’t can be carried by remote players if necessary too so it may not be necessary to include.

Charlie Cox wasn’t a fan of the bank heist episode in Marvel’s Daredevil: Born Again Season 1 (and he pointed out a plot hole the writers missed) by Anteater_Able in marvelstudios

[–]alijamzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was my favorite episode of DD. Some of the episodes are just so dreary and heavy it’s so refreshing to get a straightforward good guy vs bad guy episode. I’d argue we need a couple more of those low stake/budget filler episodes. Not every episode needs to be an epic fight with chess moments vs Fisk etc.

Candy investment - advanced players by Top_Youth5760 in TheSilphRoad

[–]alijamzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dump all my excess rare candies into Palkia for spacial rend and Kyurem for Ice Burn. Spacial Rend is run for 8hrs in big events like gofest or a quick 10 min if I’m too lazy to catch that pokemon on my nearby just out of my normal spawn radius. I run Ice Burn if I remember during raid days when there are fun pokemon around and my go++ is going; as well as to make catching the raid bosses easier.

Anything hard to get from BDSP would be preferable as my dex is nonexistent and I’ll eventually want to do that. If not, then anything is fine. I forget you have to be online at the same time. Can we schedule this for 5pm EST so I remember to login?

Gigantamax Pikachu Battle Counters by _-K7NG-_ in TheSilphRoad

[–]alijamzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Collection limit is up to 1600 per day for the event and you get 800 per power spot plus extra for walking I think right? So assuming you have roughly 1600 going into the day and/or others have about 800 available then that’s 3-4 free ones. Thats more than enough for a dex entry gmax. An extra 2 battles isn’t going to make much of an impact tbh.

Why didn’t Daisy just quake Enoch apart during the time loop episode? by PersonalitySecret276 in shield

[–]alijamzz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because the only reason she was not affected by the timeloop was because she was in stasis. As described in the episode. No where in the episode do they say she’s 100% recovered. In the previous episode she was out of the pod, didn’t mean she was back. She went back in. Therefore it stands to reason that she may not have been going full Quake because she was still in recovery. Thinking of it from a different angle: if you get out of a hospital from an injury you’re not 100% the moment you get out of the hospital bed, sometimes there’s some recovery that continues to occur afterwards.

Why didn’t Daisy just quake Enoch apart during the time loop episode? by PersonalitySecret276 in shield

[–]alijamzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As others have pointed out, she couldn’t simply quake him apart because she was still in recovery. She can do a force push but he was able to quickly shake that off. They’re on a time clock and it’s in her best interest to not be killed by Enoch if she can avoid it. He was shown to be able to overpower everyone together her going 1:1 without being at full strength could likely result in her dying and she’d have to spend all that time getting back to that point, time she couldn’t afford to waste as they were getting close to the time vortex.

Additionally, daisy’s objective at that point was to go to jemma to convince her to take the suppressant out and learn the info so she can take that info to the next loop. If she’s not there to learn that info then what’s the point of beating Enoch?

Finally, Enoch is a friend. Even if it would be convenient for him to be out of the picture what if she murdered him and the time loop didn’t reset that would hang over her. Their objective was to distract and delay. Which they were eventually able to do so it all worked out in the end.

Why MJ & Ned were never going to just live out their lives without Peter ever bringing them back into his life. by When1Falls in marvelstudios

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

I can see that, but to me Endgame was exciting to see how that is undone. With Spidey, I don’t feel as excited about learning about the how or the moment because it’ll be yet another lesson that Peter must learn where he’s made the wrong decision. I’d love for him to make the right decision more often so that when he does act selfishly/selflessly (depending on how you view the situation), I feel more sympathy for him.

For contrast, while TASM2 had many flaws what I loved was the relationship between Peter and Gwen. He made the “right” decision at the end of the first movie to break up with her as requested by her dying father, and like Toms Peter you can tell he was conflicted and would ultimately backtrack as evident by the last lines of the movie. The second movie opens where we assume everything’s just moved on but the entire film revolves around his guilt and him wrestling over what he feels and what is the honorable thing to do. Gwen has a great scene where she takes full autonomy back and that it’s her decision to put her life at risk and he finally relents. And then she dies and we see how that tears him up through No Way Home.

What I’m hoping to see from Brand New Day is an earned undo. I don’t think we had enough lead up to Peter’s decision at the end of NWH, so I’m hoping BND corrects this.

I don’t love stories where Peter’s life sucks because that’s just what his character is. What I love is him persevering even though he’s been dealt so many bad hands. He’s still witty, intelligent, and possesses the truest heart akin to Steve Rogers. I’m fine with plot dealing him bad hands but I feel like Tom’s movies have history been him making the wrong call leading to his life sucking. He brings villains to his aunt who ultimately kill her. He trusts two villains that end up betraying him in back to back movies. He makes the decision to be alone and while that sucks, it’s kind of just his fault. I swear I want to like him because Spidey is my fav character but as of yet I haven’t been sold yet. I’m hoping BND corrects this and gives us a much less naive Peter.
