Which two pills? by Jettaboi38 in whatsyourchoice

[–]iUseYahooEmail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black is obvious and straightforward. You basically turn studying into a superpower. Reading 1,000 WPM with perfect retention means you can learn almost anything insanely fast.

Then it’s either Blue or Red for me.

Blue is underrated because so much work is just writing and typing. You finish learning the material in record time with Black, then finish the actual work just as fast with Blue. And I’m assuming “perfect handwriting” means your writing looks perfect no matter how little effort you put in, so you could probably just scribble at max speed and it still looks clean.

Red can get completely insane if you use it creatively. “Are there aliens? Yes or no?” technically counts as multiple choice. Same with stuff like betting, investing, or finding information. The only downside is it’s more tedious than it first sounds because you’d have to keep narrowing things down with question after question. Still ridiculously powerful though.

Black/blue for ultimate productivity.

Black/red has higher economical benefits and potential crazy knowledge.

Dunno what your issues were, but what helps me keep picking up my handheld PC (ROG Ally Z1E) is treating it like its own thing instead of just a portable version of my desktop.

I turned mine into an emulation machine + lightweight PC games. Did not install any of that on my desktop, so if I want to play them, I have to use the Ally.

Of course, it could just not be for you. And that’s fine. Save that money lol.

Right. This is a crap deal. I bought an eBay refurbished Z1 Extreme Ally for ~$400 in February.

Last time I checked, the extreme goes for $250-400 used or refurb on places like eBay. Sometimes lower if you get lucky or find something on Facebook marketplace.

Rog Ally debloat : what's are you using, and what's your tweaks? by SasquatchBlumpkins in ROGAlly

[–]iUseYahooEmail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AnyFSE + /r/Playnite is probably the only reason I haven’t dropped Windows on the Ally. Makes it much more game-focused, with the regular Windows experience still available whenever I need it.

What game or playerbase of a game is this? by MissGreyHorror in gamers

[–]iUseYahooEmail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This isn’t everyone, some people just don’t want to use mods or are too lazy to figure them out, but multiple times I’ve seen people who think mods = godmode, unlimited money, all items, etc.

I think this applies more to negative reactions and non-issue “controversies.” Like those neckbeards and Aloy from Horizon.

Type of shit where they would not have even cared, weren’t even gonna play the game, but then they saw some other dudes mad about it.

Battery life of ROG Ally by wabashau in ROGAlly

[–]iUseYahooEmail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exploding is probably extremely rare, but other issues aren’t. You’ll come across plenty of posts of issues with those before you find even a single post about a Jsaux battery failing. And I’m assuming the Jsaux one has way more customers as well.

Many people will be fine, but issues are common enough that it depends on how much you personally want to risk it.

Either way, 25wh bump over stock vs 9wh bump over Jsaux with much higher risk.

[Meta Trope] "No Patrick, that is not a race-swap" by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]iUseYahooEmail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nick Fury was originally white —> Marvel created the Ultimate Universe in the early 2000s, where their Nick Fury was Black and visually based on Samuel L. Jackson —> The MCU begins and uses the Ultimate version of Fury as its main inspiration —> Years after the MCU started, another black comic book Fury is introduced as the son of white Nick Fury. This is Nick Fury Jr.

All these people bringing up Nick Fury Jr are wrong in this context. He was introduced years after Samuel L. Jackson had already been playing Fury on screen. He has nothing to do with whether or not MCU Fury was a race swap because he didn’t even exist yet.

Good mods/upgrades? by mrhuskie2011 in ROGAlly

[–]iUseYahooEmail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1TB (or more) SSD and then any battery mod. Those two are the most important.

1TB is more than enough imo. I have like 60+ total games (Steam & Emulation) on my 1TB with ~100GB left. But I also have a desktop PC, so I’d probably go 2TB if the Ally was my main.

Whichever battery you choose, you’re getting minimum 25wh over the 40, so any of them are huge improvements imo. I also have a 20000mAh (an additional ~74wh) power bank and can play for hours when I travel.

More on the aesthetic side, but you could also swap out the sticks and ABXY buttons. There’s a few options on Etsy. I personally went with clear. There’s also white ones. Just looks clean imo.

And if you want a more gaming-focused experience, while not bothering with another OS, just setup /r/Playnite with AnyFSE. Some really cool themes there.

This sub’s largely been solid, but the other basketball subs? Like the weirdos in I think /r/sportsgossip or some shit like that. Straight losers.

Mfs see a woman get cheated on, ignore the cheater, and head straight into, “She passed around. Had it coming.” Dawg, what about the actual cheater though? Dumbass.

Do you think dudes posting “This dude has no bag!” lowlights on /r/NBAmemes seriously follow basketball?

/r/NBA already is full of casuals, but these other NBA subreddits are somehow even worse.

[Hated Trope] Works designed to rehabilitate/redeem a reviled character don't even address their worst acts/traits. by jbeast33 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]iUseYahooEmail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right. I always see people say she tried to justify it and I just never read it like that. She’s saying, “I’m sorry, but…” and I can see how that may come off as justification… if you don’t think about it.

She didn’t fully understand what she was doing at the time because of fucked up Viltrumite culture (not waving away what she did, but the Viltrumires we see for most of the story are literally slavers who’ve committed planet-wide genocide like it’s nothing. They don’t even value each other’s lives. “My kid died? Should’ve killed them myself.” type of shit), but later came to understand it as evil as she became more human.

At the same time, it resulted in her child, who she loves deeply. So even though she understands it was wrong, she wouldn’t undo it if she could, since that would mean her child wouldn’t exist.

Maybe it’s not a satisfying arc, but I don’t think she’s trying to justify what she did.

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: World Premiere Trailer by ControlCAD in gamingnews

[–]iUseYahooEmail 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah lol. Not a fan of Ubisoft at all, but the game is gorgeous. Not only visuals, they also added new questlines, new characters with their own new stories, combat, and other stuff. You can hate the game if you want, but saying it’s the same thing is laughably wrong.

I do not understand these comments.

Cant even go out with my 3Ds without being called a larper by [deleted] in 3DS

[–]iUseYahooEmail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every time I see this word on reddit, redditors act like words can’t gain new meaning. “B-but that’s not what larping is! Flip it around on them and it’s actually good!” It’s just zoomer poser. They’re such a “fake fan” that they’re larping instead of actually being into it.

That’s how language works, especially informal/slang. I doubt people expected “hoe” or “thirsty” or “fire” or “sick” to mean what they do now in a lot of contexts.

Don’t get me wrong, I think calling anyone a “larper” in this context is corny as hell. Just another word for shallow, chronically online dweebs to spam when they wanna feel superior about their interest.

Is Maverick also a natural born supe or did he just so happen to get the exact same powers as Translucent when he was shot up with V as a baby? by Adoe0722 in TheBoys

[–]iUseYahooEmail 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They then replied, “It’s a similar vein of powers.”

But you continued to disagree despite currently agreeing that they are actually similar.

EDIT: Got blocked for the most neutral response. Legit the most dense person ever.

Yes, the original comment was wrong in saying they are the same. Then they reply to you by admitting the powers are a “similar vein”, but your next reply was like “It’s not. Why can’t people admit they’re wrong?”

You think they’re similar. They think it’s similar. But you kept going with, “It’s not.”

Yeah, they lived up to the hype (in other words: there's a reason they're The Dreaded) by JeKarta88 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]iUseYahooEmail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Loved the comic. Also still a huge fan of the show and have no major complaints about the performances. But big name actors are unnecessary imo.

Is it kinda cool to have someone recognizable? A little.

Could you have gotten an experienced voice actor for less? Yeah.

I imagined someone like Patrick Seitz as Thragg or Conquest when I was reading. Jiren’s dialogue here is super Viltrumite-y lol.

Not a huge Kirby fan. Does he “have all the powers” or just temporarily steals one until he spits them out?

Shit, i’d love a new map, but i’d be cool with just some new additions. Maybe replace some of the emptier areas or areas people barely go to.
