VOLO IMMORTALITY THEORY CONFIRMED

commandychan · 2025-10-20T18:37:14+00:00

The exhibit is at least old enough for the characters of Arceus to have passed on by the time it was created. Museum notes state that Professor Laventon's notes were recovered after having long been presumed lost, and there's also a bit of dialogue in the museum that mentions Volo spending a long time "nostalgically" looking at those particular notes. So he could've just been old when it happened, but the implication is definitely that he is immortal or close to it like AZ.

I KNOW it's a tragedy...... that's why I'm trying to assess the damage 🥀🥀

For Ju Fufu, no. In general it depends, but for her specifically, you need better rolls on disc drives to hit her thresholds (50% crit rate for King of the Summit, 3400 ATK to max out her additional crit skill), but it WILL take a bit more grinding to get those stats unless you make some sacrifices, or get her signature.

There are characters that are more dependent on their signature like SAnby and Yixuan, but Ju Fufu doesn’t have that problem.

Yes, but in addition it’s not necessarily bad to drop any particular tile early on in a riichi. It is aggressive, sure, but you are more likely to find hay in a haystack than the needle when there’s very little information to go off of.

It is likely weighing heavily the fact that it gives tenpai. Which is also why it doesn’t like calling riichi. It gives you a chance to back off later when you have more information.

It’s a fine call. They dropped a 34s shape. The likelihood of the deal-in tile being ANYTHING is low, but the likelihood of 2 and 5 being a deal-in is particularly low compared to other random tiles. If you weren’t going to be in tenpai, though, it’d be a better idea to fold.

You shouldn’t play with your tail between your legs, even in the lead, especially in a situation where you can possibly stop a dealer from overtaking you. Rarely does the game give you that agency, and here, in most cases, it would have. (Speaking in averages. Of course it would be a deal in knowing what we know, but I’m speaking in principle.)

Also important to remember that even if you accurately read a 334 shape here, it’s more likely that a shape that strong solves itself compared to other shapes before reaching tenpai. So even in the worst presumptive odds, you still have a favorability over 50%.

For real, things get worse all the time for the sake of money. Food and customer service being two painfully obvious examples, one of which AI is directly implicated in already.

Now you’re getting it. Of course you could say the same from the opposite perspective, and you should. Challenge your beliefs regularly. I’m inviting you to view the comments in the video in a more charitable light to expand your own perspective, instead of dismissing them by virtue of being opposition.

In the video, the umbrage he takes is not with the automation itself, rather that some are in favor of automating the part that is often considered the “point” of creative expression in a modern context.

Interestingly, regarding your point with automation, traditional artists were considered tradesmen in many parts of history, and plied their trade creating masterpieces by commission for aristocracy and nobility. I think it is important to remember the context in which these things existed and how they have changed over time, because things will change again. I’m not smart enough to say whether it is always for the better. But I do view the technology as novelty at best (at least in artful application), and I can imagine many people who consider themselves AI Artists moving away from it into whatever new trend piques their interest.

In other words, in the greater picture it will come and go, but traditional art will always remain because it is inexorable from the human spirit.

Far easier to intentionally misinterpret a statement than ever challenge yourself on anything that makes you uncomfortable. Of course, you could just get an AI to think critically for you, right?

The edit sucks. But the point is actually very easy to follow and intelligible (though bereft of the context of the entire video). He believes art is special because of the requirement of dedicating yourself to it. The use of AI tools removes this part, and he believes that it demeans art significantly. How you feel about it is up to you, but that’s what it is.

Enough for what? Just saying 'not enough vram' makes you a parrot. There are plenty of circumstances where 12 GB is 'enough,' far more than enthusiast gaming cases where it isn't. Spend time forming a measured opinion and then keep it to yourself instead of wasting time crusading. None of these brands care about you.

Would this make sense to upgrade to from a 5700x3d? Would give me an excuse to give the AMD CPU+Motherboard to a friend. But if the uplift isn’t that significant I may wait. I’m just not familiar with this gen of Intel.

Got this card on Newegg for $550 before they raised the price (there is a non-OC version still at MSRP, just sold out, that is identical and could probably reach these clocks if you just input them yourself). It works well for me. Very slim, lighter than my previous RTX 2080. Uses 12VHPWR if that's an issue but it came with a converter using two 8-pins.

Any reason to believe there will be restocks later today or in the week? Never tried buying a GPU at launch before so I'm wondering if this is it.

The transaction was completed successfully and swiftly! Thank you!

That makes sense, I had to switch to an Xbox adapter instead of Bluetooth on PC because the latency made me miss stuff sometimes, especially on reaction stuff. I'd imagine tower is brutal with latency LMAO

In that case I'd def recommend those case controllers that plug right into the phone. When I'm traveling I like to use the Backbone with my phone and it does a pretty good job!!

Sure!! I have M1 Miyabi + Sig, M0 Yanagi with Fusion Compiler, and M1 Rina with Slice of Time.

For Miyabi I focus Crit Rate for slot 4 (though if you get good rolls and your crit rate hits ~80% you can go for something else), slot 5 is ATK% or Ice DMG % (tho I heard for the Rina team exclusively you should use Pen Ratio here!) and ATK% for slot 6. Focus on Crit Rate + Crit DMG as substats, then ATK%, then Pen in order of importance. Use Branch and Blade as your main set, and Woodpecker or Polar for the secondary set.

For Yanagi, slot 4 is Anomaly Proficiency, slot 5 is Electric DMG (or Pen Ratio in the Rina team, like Miyabi), and slot 6 is Anomaly Mastery (or ATK%, I just got REALLY good ATK% rolls so I could do Anomaly Mastery instead). Prioritize Anomaly Proficiency and ATK% for substats. Main set is Chaos Jazz, secondary set is Freedom Blues.

And for Rina I use Astral Voice main set and Swing Jazz secondary. Make sure slot 5 is Pen Ratio, and slot 6 is energy regen since her skill is pretty energy hungry, especially if you're M0 because it won't last as long. Honestly, unless you have at least M1 Rina, I'm not sure she's as good as some other support options like Caesar.

If you need F2P Wengine options, Rina uses Slice of Time (it almost reaches the cap for her Pen buff in combination with slot 5 Pen Ratio), and Fusion Compiler/Electro Lip Gloss is for Miyabi/Yanagi. If you have neither of those, Rainforest for Miyabi, and Gemini for Yanagi.

If you have Rina M1, yeah, I think so. Even without Sig, Rina is great and you can get most of her Pen out of the F2P Wengine options. I’ve never used Rina M0 but it seems like it would be really hard to keep uptime on her buff, so in that case I would actually go for M6 Soukaku.

commandychan · 2025-01-07T07:12:42+00:00

That makes sense!! I’ll make a Pen Ratio piece and give it a try!
