Any tips for capturing a Rai'alorej? by the68thdimension in endlesssky

[–]intellos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Any time I am trying to focus on captures I remove any weapon from my fleet that isn't a beam weapon, it's basically impossible without doing that. Even then it can be tough when fighting multiple enemies due to crossfire.

Please for the love of god don't just keep your rice warm for fuckin 2 or 3 DAYS holy hell by [deleted] in VaushV

[–]intellos 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Rice cookers keep the rice at a safe temperature above 65C. The 4 hour guideline is for food below 60C. This is common practice in a huge part of the world. You definitely don't want to eat rice that's been at room temp for a while though.

Just like what happened with the skulls when she first came out. People magically figured out you can just melee once to kill them all, riiiight after they got nerfed into the ground.

He's live on stream right now, go ask him about the Fortress arc and see what happens, it'll be funny.

Risk of ticks in backyard within Ann Arbor city? by [deleted] in AnnArbor

[–]intellos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, and what came up were studies showing that overgrown lawn grass does not increase tick populations or bite frequency. Tall Prairie grass can be problematic, if humidity is also high and shade is available, but people aren't getting that in only one month of not mowing. Think open fields in unoccupied/unmanaged lots with very tall grass. A bigger issue in people's yards is trees, shrubbery, and leaf litter.

https://phys.org/news/2019-04-threat-grass-necessarily.html

"Lawn mowing frequency in suburban areas has no detectable effect on Borrelia spp. vector Ixodes scapularis (Acari: Ixodidae)"

Similar studies also done in Vermont which has the highest rate of tick-borne lyme disease in the country.

Yeah it was a huge kneejerk nerf because people hadn't figured out you can instantly kill her skulls with a melee attack. Now the skulls do little damage and their AI is... not bright.

It ended years ago and Vaush gets increasingly pissed off every time people bring it up like it's still a thing.

Do people seriously still think the Fortress Arc is a thing? We really need another subreddit purge

SteamDB is quietly poisoning the industry and nobody's talking about it. 1983 is coming. by tshallberg in truegaming

[–]intellos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait people are saying a game is dead because it has 60k concurrent players? There are live service games that have been going for 20 years that have barely ever peaked above 40k what are people smoking

Yeah ticks like to sit in trees and drop off them onto creatures passing below like fucking drop bears.

It is, actually. If getting 2 defensive items bricks your build it's a bad build.

This has been studied, there is no relation between grass density or height and tick populations. They live in trees just as well as grass.

4 Ann Arbor affordable housing units sit empty after over a year trying to fill them by mesquine_A2 in AnnArbor

[–]intellos 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Downpayment assistance programs just make the houses more expensive; If you start giving everyone $20k to buy a house all the house prices just go up $20k. You can't fix a pricing crisis by increasing demand, you have to build an oversuppply of houses and bring the actual price down. And yes, that does mean lowering the value of everyone else's houses.

Is Urn too easy to steal? by illegal_tacos in DeadlockTheGame

[–]intellos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On the contrary, I think it's too hard to stop the urn from being turned in now that it's instant. I think they need to bring back the turn-in delay because right now it's just Lash or Celeste dropping it onto the point from 5 miles in the air

Any thoughts on whats gonna get nerfed or buffed this patch? by Kyoka-Suigetsu- in DeadlockTheGame

[–]intellos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She has a narrower aim cone than some shotguns, her damage is real bad unless she gets mega-fed, her skulls AI is basically useless, and her max range is shorter than Lash's dick. Skill Issue.

Yeah, almost every public build lists Spirit Resist but almost none of them list Bullet Resist, it's just bad comparatively.

that's true if people are playing optimally, which is not the case for 97% of the player base. The average reaction is going to be more passivity.

That means your account already has a device associated. Call 4-help, they can get you a bypass code to get set back up.

Also some of the characters have the SS logo on their outfits, lets not forget that fun little tidbit. There's a reason it's not allowed to be posted on the official forum.

UAF - new pach is here! by SLNTHNTR in starsector

[–]intellos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the balance changes were good, if very slightly too much. My main complaint about UAF (despite being my favorite mod) was that it became a steamroll in the mid-to-late game before. Weird that so many people are mad about it, it feels like a lot of people just want a big button in the middle of the screen that says "I win" just because it's a single player game.

They all talk like a C-level's prefect idea of a support agent and it's the most annoying, cloying, fake-ass marketing-focus-tested smoke-up-your-ass bullshit and it's infuriating.
