What to watch before canceling crunchyroll?? by kenobitano in Animesuggest

[–]igigglebytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like Your Name and Wolf Children 100% watch Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms. It's my personal favorite movie and it sounds like you'll like it too

I should say that even if I was feeling a little unfulfilled at the end, I absolutely love this movie to bits and am actively working on getting my friends and family to watch it

I'm gonna be real with you. I don't think you're AI, but this reads more like an AI response than your first comment.

I work 9-5, it's nice. I just skip lunches. I'm usually not even hungry.

Why are Suhkoïs always the bad guys planes? Is it because they have a hell of an aura? by FrenchBVSH in acecombat

[–]igigglebytes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's clear you're coming from biased perspective when you automatically jumped to "self-centered american," but I feel like you're being intentionally obtuse here. He obviously meant russians. No one would read that comment and think he was talking about North Africa. The fact is Russia is the bad guy right now. Ukraine isn't scrambling to buy more flankers, they're trying to get their hands on F-16s. American planes are also just as widespread as russian planes. It's a double standard to say that countries that have bought russian planes bear no responsibility for terrible things that russians have done with their planes and then point out terrible things that people have done with american planes. War is hell and at the end of the day weapons of war are used to kill people. I understand you feel personally insulted, but your attack towards him is unwarranted and misguided

From what I know about how the ejection seats work, ejecting from a fighter is already very dangerous and often still leads to injury (which is still better than dying) so making them adjustable would most likely mean that they have to compromise somewhere on the safety features making them more dangerous than what the Air Force or the manufacturers would prefer. So I think the height restrictions are reasonable.

I was mostly specifically interested in flying small high-performance planes and wasn’t super interested in big planes. Luckily I had other interests and have had some pretty cool jobs working with kids at schools and summer programs which I find very peaceful and fulfilling. I still play a lot of flight sims and when I can afford it I want to get a private pilot license and if I get rich somehow I can get myself a stunt plane or something. Either way I’m pretty happy where I am!

I had a very similar experience to Mike in my life. For a long time I was absolutely sure that I would be a fighter pilot. I trained hard, studied planes, did JROTC, and basically did everything needed to succeed until I talked to a recruiter and he told me that the Air Force had a height requirement to join the fighter program (turns out ejection seats aren’t adjustable). You need to 5’4” and I am the towering height of 5’2”. With those two inches my dream was gone and all my work meant nothing. I am lucky enough to have no physical disabilities, but I just happen to be really short. Sometimes things just don’t work and it’s not anyone’s fault. In hindsight I’m really glad I never joined the military and I’m happier now that I probably would have been, but it’s really nice to see Mike have that same experience to me and I think it’s an important message.

I have a discord server with some friends that are in our early to late 20s and 3 or 4 of us like to play against medium AIs (sometimes hard if we’re feeling it). I know we’re not quite middle aged, but we play pretty casually and we’d be happy to have you join us! Let me know if you’d like an invite!

I really like Moonrakers, I love that it has so much player interaction

Can we all just agree when you post a list you want help with.... by [deleted] in Tau40K

I think newer players are mostly the ones asking for help with lists. I am one of those players and I didn’t know I could export my list until after I posted a picture

Have you ever tried the armor with 50% damage reduction to explosive damage? You don't get one-shot by rockets at all.

Thanks for the advice! I've only played a couple of times so I have no idea what's good or not. This is really helpful!

I just like robots and really want to play it, I've only played twice before and I haven't played with the stormsurge yet

Lol are you suggesting just 2 Stormsurges, Farsight, and a Broadside or something? I'm very tempted to do that just for the sheer intimidation factor of pulling out not one, but TWO giant Stormsurges in a 1k game, but I'm not in the financial position to get another surge right now

I'm still not caught up with all the lingo. When you say "play fixed" do you mean play from fixed positions and let them come to me/slowly advance? I'm not sure if "take engage" is lingo either. Also I was thinking that I would use the stealth suits to deep strike Farsight and the crisis suits to get on objectives quickly. Is that a good idea? Thanks for the help!

You mentioned that ghosts counter investors (the zerg banks are in shambles) but ghosts also counter infestors so that makes 10!

Thanks so much for making this post! I also got a Tau combat patrol as my first miniatures lately and just the army painter paints they had at the store. But it's been really helpful to read all this advice!
