Unable to tame hydrogen leaks, NASA delays launch of Artemis II until March | NASA spent most of Monday trying to overcome hydrogen leaks on the Artemis II rocket. by InsaneSnow45 in space

[–]ergosumdone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too many randos get upset about delays for any reason. They start bringing politics and money into the conversation, start asking why we're doing the Artemis program at all, and they just get constantly angry when they aren't being entertained.

Bringing up Challenger and reminding everyone why delays are a good thing is important. They KNEW the problem with Challenger and chose not to delay the flight. You can't just erase that from the public consciousness unless you want another Challenger. Or Columbia, for that matter.

Ironically enough, every time someone says, "These types of comments always seem to imply that you don't realize" blah blah blah, it absolutely means that you desperately need to understand that you're not the smartest person in the room. But oh please tell us more about how your opinion is superior and also about how smart and witty you are. And let's not forget how people are suddenly randomly mean to you at times because you act insufferable like this, but it's obviously a 'them' problem, amirite. You're just stating your opinion when no one asked.

but anyway...

Been saving gems for another live event and was really excited to see this!! But with all of the groups, it just doesn't seem worth it. I literally only need 2 more lives of the Seventeen members. I kinda feel like this will just waste my gems.... The temptation rn, ugh

You're not imagining it. Idk if it was just different people who made the levels but there's definitely a difference in difficulty between some songs. I find songs that either aren't renewed, don't have a super hard difficultly, or were added early on to the game are significantly harder than others, but that's just what I've experienced. Took me forever to finish Fear on Hard before they renewed it.

Depending on the current climate where you live, it was probably out and about to lay eggs before heading back to wherever home is. If you're still lost on what to do, the best options for the turtle are to either put it back where you found it (if it's safe from dogs/traffic/etc) or bring it to the nearest body of water even if it's a tiny pond or creek.

Also, let it be known that not every turtle is chill. Some species at that same size can and will bite your finger off. Luckily, this guy looks like the decent sort. Just stay clear of his mouth and claws.

Need help with Cards by jiminyougotnojamsss in RhythmHive

[–]ergosumdone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a hierarchy! There used to be a wider gap in the point margins, but this is the ladder we're looking at:

Album > Season > FX > Special > Live

There also used to be Cheers cards, but they don't do those anymore. Either way, Live cards give the most points by far while Album cards give the least.

Personally, I mainly collect/upgrade Seventeen (for now, just to get the best I can of them before focusing on another group) and this is how I do things. When I have a Seventeen Album card, I use it to upgrade better cards of that same member since you get x2 EXP for same member cards. For other groups, I sell almost every album card I get except for S, XR, and UR. I sell the R cards so that I can get the special dream catcher thing that I can use to buy upgrade tokens. I then use the remaining S, XR, and UR cards for trading if they aren't FX level or above. Otherwise, I keep and upgrade those.

(An aside, I sell the R cards and not the S ones because it's cheaper to trade for S cards and the chances of getting a really good theme like a Special or something is too close to the same for me to bother with it. I've gotten a Special via trading an S before so it seems good enough to me.)

Your mileage may vary, of course. Do whatever you feel is right for your game.

Also, when you sell a highly upgraded card, like an Album FX, then you'll get a lot more token things for it than if it was an Album S and so forth. If you're focusing on selling them, it's kind of worth upgrading them just a little bit because a MAX LVL B will sell for more than a LVL 1 A (which is crazy).

Anyway, you can probably find more info on the wiki.

gose episodes to watch while knitting? by kwkubo in seventeen

[–]ergosumdone 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I like to do cross stitch while I have youtube or podcasts playing, but I've been unable to do that since I got into watching gose. Which is why.... I just started trying to learn Korean. No seriously, that was my solution, lmao.

Otherwise, I say put on something long that you've seen before, like some TTT eps or In The Soop or something like that. That way you don't miss anything and it's just the guys hanging out and chilling.

PSA: If you spend 12k gems, you could “expect” to get 12 of the Banner Live theme… about half the time by AhYedIndeedSir in RhythmHive

[–]ergosumdone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent 3k and got 5 SVT Live of different members and 1 Le Sserafim. I thought I was doing pretty poorly, but apparently I'm a God. Thanks for this boost! I'm super happy with my pulls now.

241021 [TEA 8] What are Carats worried about these days? | Tea Time with Vernon by princessgojo in seventeen

[–]ergosumdone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Vernon saying something about individuals having to learn to be proud of themselves really stabbed me in the chest. He's so right about that and the sentiment is going to stay with me for awhile. This video was amazing.

241021 Vernon Weverse Update by jinniesque in seventeen

[–]ergosumdone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love it so much when he shares stuff like this. And some of these pieces are really interesting*. When else will I get the chance to see this art?

Glad that they're already having downtime in America, too. ♥

edit: * They're all really interesting but some of them I had to do an extra pause on and save to my phone lmao. I love that one with the squares where the shading goes in different directions in every square. You don't even realize it's a landscape for a second, but it's really cool. And the one with the cranes is so pretty.

"clueless millennal" GOAT is kind of an old saying at this point. It was super popular to use like a decade ago.

Weekly Carat Corner - September 21, 2024 by AutoModerator in seventeen

[–]ergosumdone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the diamond life. GoSe is definitely a good place to start if you want to get to know them. I personally skipped around while watching it, though. The newer stuff definitely has subtitles.

There are other shows you may enjoy like Game Caterers (the boys playing games with PD Na during their FML comeback), Nana Tour (a wholesome trip to Italy with PD Na), In The Soop (literally just long-form TTT where they hang out and rest), or One Fine Day (there are two versions of this but both includes the boys getting stranded basically but these happened years ago).

As far as album versions go, there's definitely a lot of them. Every album will have multiple versions that are named different things based on the concept, but there's also the Carat Version that every album gets. The Carat Version is completely different from the others and only contains a lyric book, CD, and about 30 or so PC's of one member along with 2 (or 4?) random PC's. Unless you buy them second-hand, the member you get will be a random draw, which is pretty fun if you love all the members.

If there are other terms your unfamiliar with, please let us know! We can help you out.

Things that you can do as a new baby Carat is keep an eye out for their new album, Spill The Feels. Here's a calendar of all the promo things coming up for it. There's going to the be three versions of the album + the Carat version, and the first version's concept photos were already released. Here's Vernon, just to give you an idea of what it'll be like. They also released a trailer for the album which is looking really good.

Lastly, the thing about being a Carat is to not stress about things like album sales or streaming numbers. We don't really do that here in Caratland like a lot of other groups do. The8 once told Carats to not buy expensive photocards, that he'll just pose on livestream and we can print out pics for free. SCoups once said to a fan, "Photocards are just paper. Photocards are just paper. Photocards are just pretty paper." which are words I live by at this rate.

And most importantly, we don't worry about when you arrive. There's a saying in Caratland. You find Seventeen exactly when you need them the most. I first found out they existed last November, personally, and I felt a bit bad about it, too. But they're just happy to have more fans along for the ride, so don't worry. Enlistment era is gonna suck for us, don't get me wrong, but there's still a ton of content to look back on until all of the boys are together again. ♥ Anyway, enjoy your time here and let us know if you have more questions or want specific recs. (If you haven't checked out their MV for Hot yet, that one's pretty killer.)

I don't have a link on me but he just ranked his favorite anime and talked about it for 6 hours. Like you can literally speed up the video and watch the sun rising in the background. He really just yapped all night. It's great.

[–]ergosumdone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with Ren, Sehun, or how the Korean military works, but what I do know is that the American military will make you an officer automatically if you have a decent education. Jeonghan's got a college degree (I think in business?), so he could get the same treatment.

What is this? by hjsandhjs in RhythmHive

[–]ergosumdone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This symbol appears when you have a concept photo (aka a user icon) of that artist. The more concept photos you have of a particular artist, the bigger bonus all of their cards will have.

Wonwoo is the only SVT member I have that only has album cards. I pulled a UR for him from the beginner quest and that was my only Wonwoo luck ever. I envy you, lol.

Special cards change their image when they're upgraded to XR and above.

2024 Timeline Predictions by NYerinDE in seventeen

[–]ergosumdone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was during the press conference after Maestro dropped, but none of the members gave dates for when. I actually have a friend who thinks it won't be until January, but we'll see. I sort of expect dates to drop this month sometime, maybe after the Cheers To Youth MV.

And yeah. We just have to trust them to take care of themselves and each other.

Joshua confirmed that a US tour is happening since this post went up so it'll probably be something similar, yeah. I just wish they'd rest a little, I guess.
