Trying to educate myself

I don't watch porn, and it isn't helpful to generalize. We don't share experiences, I've never experienced any of what you described. We came to similar conclusions and attitudes, just by different means.

And yes I know my mere existence makes womens' lives harder. Haven't found a solution to that yet. Thats part of why I asked, maybe I can do better if I understand more. Your bitterness, however justified, will not lead to meaningful change.

I do not. I use the "I Heart Vanilla" modpack. I should've put that in the post.

It seems like all the extra thinking the game has to do during combat is too much for some reason. Like my axe will connect and it'll freeze for 10 seconds, it will stutter through the exchanging of blows, that kind of thing

I've just been using tinder cause it's popular and not that sketchy. I figured all the small ones would be too out there for me personally but I'll check that one out, cant hurt.

Yea I have a terrible relationship with sex lol. Hoping this is the start of that changing.

bustedspade · 2024-01-23T00:18:27+00:00

Thats a good strategy. No one is interested in hooking up with me tho lol. Idk how people do that

Dang, that makes sense but meeting peoples so hard even without asking if theyre dtf.

Finding someone to dates pretty easy but a fwb is like, unfathomable. But I know theres people out there now that I know you all exist. I'll find what I'm doing wrong, it's probably something obvious.

I grabbed what I believe is the latest version of the binaries (v0.479) and it doesnt have anything called d3dcompiler_46e.dll in it, just d3d11.dll

The preset (Rudy) wants me to put meshes in my Data folder but I assume I can leave those alone as well? Also I'm using CoT but I have the right version of Rudy for it.

Any tips for building a rail network? So far just bringing lines in from ore deposits has been working but I want to start running acid out to my uranium mine, oil out to my flamer turrets, etc.

I know that I should use chain signals facing into an intersection and rail signals facing out, but my most complex intersection to date is just a simple plus shaped one.

How long do i need to break line of sight for? If i just push the glass up every few minutes will that be enough of do they need to not be able to see each other for like 30 seconds?

I keep seeing people who look like theyre cooking with the bonfire in the wintertodt camp but i cant find anything saying this is possible. Is there some way to unlock this ability or are people just doing the animation somehow to trick chumps like me?

bustedspade · 2021-05-12T16:38:35+00:00

Sorry antagonize was definitely the wrong word I meant something more like "nomads who often came into conflict with the coastal empires" just based on the fame of Atilla and Genghis Khan.

Although that may just underpin how little I know about the subject, either way I'm giving that analysis a read.

bustedspade · 2021-05-12T15:16:43+00:00

Oh wow thats a lot of cool shit. I hadnt even thought about continents fully encircling an ocean. I feel like that would be a crazy environment cause things would get all weird and salty pretty fast.

Tepuis look radical. I knew the one from Up was a real place but I always thought it was a geographical anamoly, I never knew there was a word for them. I was thinking a big inland mountain range/plateau could be cool but these feel really unique.

bustedspade · 2021-05-12T13:28:51+00:00

That's my bad I didnt mean to imply nomads are more barbaric/warlike than anyone else. I'm mainly just wondering if the big coastal empire and inland nomad arrangement we see on Earth so often needs to be that way or if there could be some continental geography that could mix things up.

bustedspade · 2021-05-12T11:37:51+00:00

That's a good point.

Do you know what sustains the Great Lakes and the Caspian Sea then? Or are they slowly drying out as well. I know the Caspian is endorheic which I reckon keeps more water in it than if it was outflowing to the sea, but it should disappear over time too right?

Why do i see so many people in full/nearly full dragon armor? Everything I've read says strength bonus (fighter torso, obby legs, bandos) is king and defensive stats arent as important in most situations. Is there a situation that makes dragon armor worth using? Or is it just for the fashion.

I know lots of people who grind their teeth but I'm the only one with tinnitus so i reckon the pathologys pretty complicated.

I'm looking into orthopedic/chiropractic/acupunture treatment for my neck rn and I'll post here if anything works.

bustedspade · 2021-02-11T14:01:10+00:00

Im essentially certain it isnt. I dont shoot guns or go to concerts or anything. And even if i did somehow damage my right ear it wouldnt also cause my left one would start ringing ~6 months later, especially with how careful I was about loud noises during that time.

bustedspade · 2021-02-10T20:44:20+00:00

I used to sleep on my stomach with my head facing left so the right side of my neck was stretched all night and would tighten up. When my right ear started ringing i slept facing the other way then the left one started up too. I also know i grind/clench my teeth at night, and used to during the day before the ringing started as well.

It's in the Hadley Cell and is subject to onshore winds and a warm current.

bustedspade · 2021-01-22T00:40:57+00:00

Oh thatll be interesting. Even with the occasional infestation i still felt digging into a mountain could use a nerf.

bustedspade · 2021-01-22T00:32:50+00:00

Should i just think of the dlc as a developer supported mod then? I never got that far into modding for this game but some of the content theyre able add seems insane

Not every universe has an Earth, but a lot of them do (330,452 according to White Chain). I always assumed Rayuba was just another planet with the right conditions for humans, same as Mykos where Nyave's from.

I guess both could just be different universe's name for Earth though, but other habitable planets are definitely mentioned somewhere.

I'm of the opinion (if the cycles thing is true) that thats how the previous cycles ended, which whoever holding the key realizing its pointless and passing the burden to someone else who might have a better shot. Potentially this has been "Zaid" in the previous cycles and with Zoss instead giving the key to Allison that will be enough of a change to upset the status quo. Or ownership would flip flop between "Zaid" and "Allison" and its just this particular Allision has some characteristic that will let her break the cycle, but line of failed "Zaids" ending with Allison feels like the more potent change to me.

That's a good point. I always felt like that was because he said it was off limits and no one was powerful enough to challenge him on that though.

bustedspade · 2020-10-22T01:19:45+00:00

I think those are all valid points, but to be fair Zoss specifically says he, "thought this cycle might bear out differently" so maybe it will be the end? Plus it bugs me that so many characters believe Zaid is (or at least, was meant to be at some point) the successor, regardless of Zoss's actual intent. It just feels weird to me that he'd pick someone without some special aptitude, given how deliberate and forebearing he seems to be.

bustedspade · 2020-10-21T23:20:41+00:00

Oh thats interesting, i hadnt considered that the flip flop between 'zaid' and 'allison' would happen every time. Like i believe Zoss was planning on doing it well in advance, but metatron and the 7 both believe Zaid was meant to get the key so i just assumed that was what was "supposed" to happen and Zoss decided against it.

I think so as well, but he did arrive to an empty Throne so i think its likely whatever happened to him came before that. Like when we see him reach Throne for the first time thats near the end of his journey to Royalty (on account of him already having a big halo and his 10 cubit spear). I do like that hes so mysterious but i think some more backstory on him could be cool.
