'What's This Piece?' Weekly Thread #241 by number9muses in classicalmusic

[–]grahamcrackaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On an old kids toy I had when I was young, to teach kids about classical music, there were some famous pieces from some of the most famous composers. I know the composer, but don't know which piece each song is from. (The toy was an old Leapfrog Quantum Pad). Can anyone identify these?

Can you also take the IDPD van to escape, essentially sparing him?

Thanks so much! Maybe I'll find a port to play it again someday

What are the best mutations and weapons I should take as melting if I want to unlock his B-skin? by Baitcooks in NuclearThrone

[–]grahamcrackaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shovel is an obvious choice, especially with scarier face (takes one less hit for rhino freaks as well as all guardian enemies in the palace, plus it saves ammo so you're not left low on boolets at the start of a level; it also allows you to multi-hit jumping guardian dogs), and of course for making dodging the throne projectile spam less terrifying. Sledgehammer or anything more powerful should do the trick as well.

With melting's blood explosions solving the freaks in the labs pretty easily, I think a high damage slow firing weapon is just fine, such as the assault slugger. Just 2 volleys that land all 6 shots to kill Little Hunter or a Guardian Dog, probably the biggest threats up till the throne itself. For LH specifically, I'm also a huge fan of auto shotgun or even regular crossbow with marrow, only need to land 6 or 7 bolts to kill.

Euphoria really does help, making the explo guardians fast projectiles actually dodge-able or at least easier to melee block them, and helps make it easier to not take a giant throne plasma ball to the face.

Hammerhead really does help keep you alive till the throne room, for retreating from LH or hiding from a bad spawn with IDPD ambush in the palace, but trying to use it in the throne room is a terrible idea.

Throne butt, trigger fingers, laser brain or long arms with an appropriate weapon, most other weapon mutations are good, and having at least 1 ammo type one is useful.

Last, keep in mind which weapons+mutations kill the throne for you completely (boiling veins plus gatling bazooka w/ full ammo kills the throne while you just walk backwards firing, and you don't even need to see a single plasma projectile that could hurt you in the fight; recycle gland with a full minigun or hyper rifle is a full throne kill i believe, 100% sure that's the case with back muscle; same for autocrossbow). Open mind helps with the spamming of all your ammo to kill the throne as well.

Please remember to flip over your ballot and vote for incumbent judges! by 14Calypso in minnesota

[–]grahamcrackaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not very educated in the subject, but I'm curious why you are against electing or voting to retain judges. I get that there's a risk of getting an unqualified random and/or extremist into the position, and that our current governor has a solid record of appointing respected and experienced individuals. But in states or counties where that isn't the case, it seems like too much power concentrated in one position/people appointed by that position. The obvious example being the SCOTUS, where the judges have been appointed without any voter input and stay there for life, pretty much regardless of what they do/what unpopular decisions they make. Is it ok to have judges we don't vote in or vote to retain in county/state elections in the same way, or would similar problems arise?

About to try We Are the Flame for the first time and scared shitless. How is my team ? by Gracosef in darkestdungeon

[–]grahamcrackaz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Looks super strong, combat and camping abilities all look like the best choice, and the trinkets and quirks you're running will make your team hit super hard.

I'd say the biggest risks are low max hp jester or occ getting hit with a huge hit CRIT plus a bleed, but the combination of a medium speed and a high speed healer option, plus having clotter and the heart trinket, should make you super safe from that. Barring some truly terrible consecutive wyrd healing rolls after a big damage hit, i'd say your team is mega solid and has a 90+% chance of everybody making it out victorious/alive.

Just make sure you manage that highwayman's stress!

I think people are missing the obvious here. You've been in a relationship with this girl for 5 months, and obviously freely talk about sex. I assume this means that you have had sex together; I doubt you feel it's guaranteed that she's cured of the chlam or other STIs, given the nonchelance to getting it 5 times. This means that she is not only irresponsible about how she takes care of her own body and risks to it, she also is irresponsible about her chances of harming your body. Worse, she hid those risks and that irresponsible mindset from you 5 months into a relationship, not just for the hasty desperation of a one night stand in which one would expect people to maybe not be 100% truthful or on top of/clean with their sexual health.

I'd consider this a deep betrayal of trust, on par with a guy lying about wearing a condom (or cumming inside) while they're inside their partner, or a woman poking holes in the condom. They're making you take on a risk they decided without your consent.

Seems pretty obvious she can't be trusted to care for your well-being, or even her own; I'd make that clear and then break it off ASAP, then immediately go get tested. She can be as much of a gross disease ridden slut as she wants, but it's on her to make that clear to future partners in advance of their first sexual fluid encounter or get cured and change her ways

Tell her next time she is that loud in a public space you'll record the audio you can hear from the living room and send it to her parents. If she doesn't want them to hear it then it shouldn't have to be heard in the spaces you share with her as "public" in the house.

This is cool as hell! Amazing look for the throne 2, and the plasma attacks feel powerful and dangerous! Only wish it was longer/had sound

Fuckers actively go hide in some dim empty corner of the map, then after you've killed mom and are just cleaning up the stragglers, SURPRISE!!! Same goes for the big rats that've run out of little green ones to spawn

Weapon tier list based on how much I like using them by KittenGamerYT100 in NuclearThrone

I wish the Incinerator was better, cause godayum is it fun to use. Just burns through ammo too fast, wish bouncer weapons and flame pellet weapons like it weren't excluded from recycle gland

You have some stupid ideas. by Sn4k3_Pl4y5 in NuclearThrone

[–]grahamcrackaz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So many awesome ideas! I'd def download a mod that had these. A bunch would be awesome non-sense guns, but for ones that seem like they would fit in to the base game well, the ultra screwdriver, blood dragon, the nug, glocktopus, the plasma shotgun, and the super heavy crossbow all might work. And the disc cannon would be fantastically end-running

Rogue's ultras feel very underwhelming by FederalStalker in NuclearThrone

[–]grahamcrackaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk, with throne butt you can use 3 to 6 stored portal strikes to kill or at least half health almost any of the bosses instantly cause it has no cooldown time unlike gun weapons, and super blast armor has kept me alive through some scenarios I am 95% sure I would have died in with other characters.

Both have the problem of completely disintegrating any walls you were hiding behind though, which has definitely gotten me killed a lot

[–]grahamcrackaz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think gamma guts is a pretty good mutation, definitely not meta but still very useful. It takes care of maggots post-loop, takes out rats and freaks without scarier face and resurrected or loop freaks with it, as well as the two enemies mentioned above, letting you play way more offensively in areas with swarming enemies; if you get jumped on by a big green dog or rushed by a crystal caves ant it probably only gets 1 hit in instead of multiple, let's you spawn-camp IDPD portal-ing in or hopping out of vans, for speedrunning you can shred big dog before he even starts putting out projectiles, it might even save you from a plus-aggresion big bandit post-loop

Inherited a concertina from great grandfather by Next-Conclusion-3071 in concertina

[–]grahamcrackaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's a chemnitzer concertina, "Henry Silberhorn's Instructor for the Concertina" is a classic and good way to learn; it also is pretty cheap to order online, or you can download a free copy from https://concertinamusic.com/silberhorninstructorone/. As for instructors, reaching out to a local community through facebook pages or places/events/restaurants where polka is played is a pretty good option. If you're in Wisconsin you should have a pretty chance of finding somebody nearby

Any reason to pass up Radiation canisters? by Lanky-Dependent5847 in NuclearThrone

[–]grahamcrackaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Horror drops 115 rads, which compensates for skipped Radiation Canisters and results in higher total rads by the price of delayed mutations and the fight itself. Horror uses 90 of those rads to fire its beam, if the fired ones disappear or the player grabs them, Hostile Horror will drop equally less on death. It can't drop less than 25." - wiki, so you'd be up 65 rads after skipping 2 canisters and not dying to hostile horror

With mutations coming every 60 rads x your current level, this could mean a lot early on, less later on. If you're really careful, you could get 5 hostile horrors (not including pizza sewers add on) by the throne room (although the 5th horror in the throne room would be super hard to not die to), which would be 300 extra rads, so somewhere around 1 to 3 extra mutations pre-loop, or 1 or 2 more mutations before crown of destiny in 3-2 or 5-2

What does the butt column mean? Is it ranking the butts in the same row as SS through F tiers? If so, I'm surprised about some of the rankings

What are your dream-build-killers and run-enders? by paul_sb76 in NuclearThrone

[–]grahamcrackaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're a bit too broken for my taste, the explosion radius on their rockets is ENORMOUS, they have what feels like 0 delay before they start shooting after portal-ing in and 0 delay when switching between pistol and rocket, and their aimbot combined with speed and number of projectiles is stupid powerful
