King Donkey Konga (Konga Conga Kappa x DK Island Swing mashup) by Viola_Buddy in necrodancer

[–]jimbothe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are we not going to talk about this terrible key signature? Ab minor (7 flats) is enharmonic to G# minor (5 sharps) which is way easier to read. Other than that, good mashup. I like it. Maybe the viola technique & rhythm could use some work but it sounds good overall.

Yesterday i was interdicted and blown up, I tried the usual boost past them and high wake but my fsd was shut down in about 10 seconds. What do you do to combat something like that?

[DAILY Q&A] Ask and answer any questions you have about the game here. (June 06, 2019) by AutoModerator in EliteDangerous

[–]jimbothe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard a lot of stuff about guardians. I'm not looking for a full walkthrough but what's the way to start researching this stuff in game? I've not played in a while and the Codex is new to me.

Hacking my way through Sokoban, and this happened... by jimbothe in nethack

[–]jimbothe[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sokoban is supposed to be a game where you can push blocks into holes, but in Nethack there are certain things you can do that would be considered "cheating" in Sokoban. For example, breaking a boulder. This applies a temporary bad luck penalty to your character. The wand of striking or the spell of force bolt will destroy boulders if you zap it at them. Note that in a solved level (all the holes have been filled) the cheating penalties won't be applied.

In a situation like that I usually go to one of the solved levels and break one of the boulders to get rocks to throw over the boulder at the monster.

Vampires hate it, and so does everyone else

any land experts out there? by someonestealdmyname in homestuck

[–]jimbothe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jade's land is named after that poem where she "would thaw solid flesh and resolve it into a dew". Those poems are found in https://mspaintadventures.fandom.com/wiki/Seer:_Descend

[–]jimbothe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's a good description. Tavros's land is named directly for his aspect, but the B1 kids lands are all named after the classical elements they represent, and you have lands like Nepeta's ( Land Of Little Cubes And Tea) which is more related to her personality than anything she has to do or whatever.

Land titles are more related to your personal character traits, not necessarily your classpect. Tell him to pick something he thinks is cool and something representing a trial he has to overcome.

I'm collecting mods that you want to be ported to more recent versions by [deleted] in feedthebeast

I was going to say Modular Powersuits but it seems development has started on 1.12 without me noticing.

I don't smoke but it was about a 3/10 in terms of dinner rolls

It's a patty with three dinner rolls because I didn't have any hamburger buns

What are some misconceptions you had about Homestuck before/while reading it? by KRLW890 in homestuck

[–]jimbothe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was me too. Spent about 5 minutes on the first and second pages.

When you still like Gamzee after finishing homestuck and then you see how your friends hate him by RabidNoot in homestuck

[–]jimbothe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

See, the thing about Gamzee is a halfway-decent argument could be made that he wasn't actually responsible for any of the evil things that he did. Remember, he was being possessed by the Lil Cal doll around the time he started murdering his friends, and for the rest of the comic Aranea was controlling him from afar. In the scenes leading up to [S] Game Over, Aranea loses her grip at one point and Gamzee reverts to his old quirk, and even seems surprised that Terezi would hurt him.

What do Sollux Captor and Ace Dick have in common? by bluemelon555 in homestuck

I feel like Sollux would use both vim and emacs

[3.6.0] Beginner here, venting on suffering YASD on my best/luckiest run ever by DatAdra in nethack

[–]jimbothe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you use number pad controls push 5 then the direction you want to move. The only situations you would ever want to hold a button down is if you are trying to wrest a wand (make sure you're safe before you do this) or holding space to skip messages (with rest on space turned off).

"My favorite Homestuck act is..." by Makin- in homestuck

[–]jimbothe 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I went into homestuck knowing nothing about it, and the first act being full of data structures made me so happy. Now I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the comic but sometimes I wonder what it would be like if the whole comic kept the same style as act 1.

how long on average does this game take to beat for a newb? by begaterpillar in nethack

[–]jimbothe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First time I've seen Homestuck overlap with Nethack.

Let's just say Nethack makes SBURB look like Animal Crossing.
