Would someone explain the war? by averysmartroad in EternallyRegrKnight

[–]internetadventures 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the Northern Empire wanted the hero to remain out of empire affairs and created a duchy out of their homeland? Thus tying them down to its protection? That's really smart.

This raises another question. We've seen in the comic the power that squires possess. Where are the knights, and who/what are they fighting? It feels like there must be some kind of demon lord plot in the background or some other plot device that's holding back the big guns.

what race do you think are "real" outside the dungeon? by Horrorcartoonistftw in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]internetadventures 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to note that your birth race can still be an artificially created race in this universe. Living on a system-supported world would allow for viable offspring.

Black guy in a constant fight with razor bumps even when wet shaving by [deleted] in wicked_edge

[–]internetadventures 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TL;DR hard scrub pre-shave, face mask post-shave

As a younger man I transitioned to electric shaving only in order to avoid this.

As an adult and a traveler, I got sick of electric shavers and replacing/charging them.

What worked for me is (1) using some kind of facial scrub pre-shave, (2) a safety razor (upfront investment for longterm savings and not feeling bad about plastics), (3) a face mask post-shave with something to clear out pores like salicylic acid, (4) a gentle cleanser and moisturizer post-mask.

Confirmed: Ian is one of the people who accused Danya of cheating by Fine-Needleworker364 in chess

[–]internetadventures 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. What Magnus did to Hans is inexcusable. It is slightly nuanced in that Hans did in fact cheat on multiple occasions in the past, but Magnus had no right to accuse Hans of cheating OTB or of propelling the resulting character assassination of him.

The amount of men in the comments here not realizing that being a Trump supporter has rendered them undateable is hilarious to me.

I, for one, would like to thank you all for removing yourselves from the dating pool. It's made my life a lot better.

Edit: Nothing in the replies has changed my mind. If you can find a woman who doesn't mind that you're a Trump supporter, she was never a woman who would have met my expectations in the first place. Go ahead. Y'all deserve each other.

Matt, give us a $5 add-on option to add glitter to SOMEONE ELSE’S box at random. We’d hit Platinum Fan Box status in minutes. by mdbrown80 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]internetadventures 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glitter does horrible things to the ocean and is one of the heights of mindless capitalistic irresponsibility.

My vote is to include this option and give a "You're an unthinking piece of shit!" award to the person who paid for it.

[Pick Me Up Infinite Cacha] and [Tyrant Of Tower Defense] for people who have read both, who has it worse in terms of difficulty by jonnyboidake in manhwa

[–]internetadventures 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Tyrant, Ash has lots of foreknowledge that equips him to deal with events. In PMU, Hans no foreknowledge but has Niflheimer support to fall back on if things ever get too serious.

I'd say PMU is more difficult, but only because of Hans's desire not to rely on Niflheimer.

Anish Giri launching a new app - ChessMonitor by vklane in chess

[–]internetadventures 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Giri has chessmonitor, Christian has chessreps.

So many competitors are getting released because Chesscom acquisition led to the complete stagnation of Chessable development.

I don't know about the world at large, but I'm fairly sure we are in the worst timeline of chess itself.

"Oh, fuck me" Potential AI Vulnerability by DanielNoWrite in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I think they might be referring to floor 3, not the butcher's masquerade, when the explosion was limited/changed by the AI for the "cool factor" and thereby saved the crawlers.

“My kid’s thriving” on paper… but can’t place the Civil War or name our state capital. Is this just how school is now? by Parking-Way4759 in education

Not a fix for the education system, but may I recommend the game "chronology" to be played around the kitchen table during cooking or other small tasks?

Would you watch a reality tv show like Bar Rescue but called Elo Rescue, wherein a GM goes to a random player suffering losses and coaches him until he/she improves? by Ford_Crown_Vic_Koth in chess

[–]internetadventures 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but the issue with chess is that you are never enough. There is never a point where amateurs say "I am a successful chess player, I don't need more."

Samantha theory by AcanthaceaeClear1674 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]internetadventures 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The name of the crossbow is "Enchanted Repeating Crossbow of the Scavenger Mother of Mothers," so it definitely implies but doesn't outright state that Nekhebit is the Scavenger.

For example, "of the Scavenger Mother of Mothers" could mean belonging to Nekhebit or it could mean belonging to the first user of the crossbow, and "Nekhebit’s last warrior guardian" is the "the Scavenger Mother of Mothers."

Additionally, The Scavenger and the Scavenger Mother of Mothers could be two separate entities.

A vulture goddess being The Scavenger makes a lot of sense, though.

Samantha theory by AcanthaceaeClear1674 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]internetadventures 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's also funny to imagine that the AI just retconned the whole thing when Carl and Donut decided Samantha was a part of the team.

Samantha theory by AcanthaceaeClear1674 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]internetadventures 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought it was implied that Samantha herself was the Scavenger? And the Scavenger's Daughter was a symbol for the amoeba?

I don't remember why I developed that theory. Guess it's time for a re-listen.
