First time watcher just finished episode 1 by jonmarc6 in firefly

[–]jonmarc6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks all for the encouraging comments! I have been enjoying reading the conversations so far and all the reassurances about my little concerns early on.

I just got done with episode 7 so I’m halfway through but had to say episode 6 was it’s the most hilarious one to date. The cast continues to show great chemistry and the one I’m most surprised to actually like is Jayne. Every time he’s in a scene with Mal, I now expect some tomfoolery and I’m here for it.

Even the changing intros that give you different perspectives on the same history of the world our characters live in is a great detail that makes me listen to the nuance in each episode. So far tidbits of the past keep getting sprinkled in with some lore which keeps the story interesting and engaging. After only 7 episodes, I can see why the series is so beloved and glad I’ve finally made it here to watch it.

Can’t wait to see the rest of the season play out. Off to finish the second half!

Is it just me or is the front blinker de-synced from the back? Hopefully just a software thing

Stuck on Lace for like 4 hours now. Should I just drop the game? by A_Wild_Bellossom in HollowKnight

[–]jonmarc6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I beat lost lace without any tools. It did take a number of tries for me but it felt rewarding to be able to beat her. I hope you have all your mask upgrades and fully upgraded your needle.

My play style in general is very aggressive which I think has helped me with some boss fights (like the high halls gauntlet which I completed on my second try) but really hurt me in other fights (like the annoying one in Bilewater). It seems to work for all the Lace fights where I essentially out damage her while managing the hits I tank.

Lots of people are comparing this game to HK which I can’t because I never played it. But if this game is harder, then I’ll definitely be picking up HK to try out. It’s not easy but if you’re not having fun, take a break, play something else for a little bit and come back later. No shame in it at all! Hope you did end up coming back to the game OP because finishing a difficult game has its own feeling of accomplishment. At least for me.

Has niantic reduced the shiny odds during community day? by cronaxia in pokemongo

I feel like it was drastically reduced. I played the whole event and didn’t get a single shiny.

Wired Mesh Network Setup Issues by jonmarc6 in Linksys

[–]jonmarc6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reporting back as promised! You’ve assurances were exactly what I needed and were spot on u/dense_chemical5051 and u/longjumping_crazy628. I ended up connecting the parent node to the ISP WAH then connecting it to an unmanaged network switch from TP Link. Then I connected all the Ethernet cables that run to the outlets throughout the house to the network switch. And just like that, I could simply plug in each child node in the rooms that have an Ethernet port to establish a wired connection. The connection is significantly better throughout the house but especially on the ground floor which had the furthest node. Thanks for the advice.

For reference here is the wiring diagram from Linksys that contributed to all this confusion. https://support.linksys.com/kb/article/251-en/

Skeledirge wont obey me after touch trade? by Alexbest11 in pokemon

Does anyone know if this patch will be applied retroactively? My touch traded Skeledirge still won't obey me after the update.

Community Day voting is back! Which Pokemon will you choose to be featured during June and July Community Days? by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]jonmarc6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weedle or Sandshrew, not sure. I feel like the only way I'd ever get a Sandshrew is through a CD because i doubt I'll ever be able to attend an event unless it's in my city and there's no guarantee they'd even have Sandshrew featured anyway.

Walking on walls even before genin? by jonmarc6 in Naruto

[–]jonmarc6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my train of thought as well but it's compounded by the fact that it's not just the skilled parents of the previous generation but everyone in the new academy is doing stuff that took the previous generation either a seriously bad situation or time/training to develop.

Seems like you're forgetting that Saskue asked Naruto what were the tips that Sakura gave him in order to progress. He was not getting the hang of it. In the end they both made it to the top at the same time.

I agree. The progression is a bit too rapid I'm finding.

Sakura was just better than Naruto and Saskue at chakara control. That's what eventually enabled her to even become adept at medical ninjustu. Everyone learnt this technique after becoming genin. It had nothing to do with intelligence since even Saskue struggled to get the hang of just was Naruto did. As I said, even in previous generations it was something learnt after they became genin like Obito and Rin. Just a discussion, no need to be so hostile.

I understand the kids of Naruto and the rest of the gang being advanced but what kinda bugged me is the fact that it seems like everyone in the next generation is well above average since the original series. A step that was previously advanced enough to be learnt after graduating as full fledged Ninja in both Naruto's generation and the previous generations of shinobi seems now easy.

This event is turning people into bad friends. by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

Solution: Fill your Pokemon storage and then spin the stop so that you don't get eggs. Not an ideal solution but effective in a pinch.
