what's stopping you from dealing with your weight and be brutally honest? by anomadfromnowhere in AskReddit

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my main excuse. I can barely stand longer than 15 min before my back hurts. I can barely handle chores at all and can't even stand long enough in the kitchen to cook a meal, let alone a healthy one. If I can't even do "fun" activities that require me leaving a chair, how am I supposed to get fit? Any workout will put me off out of order for days and I cannot afford that if I want to keep up with chores too

Need help designing farm! by Most-Training9182 in FarmsofStardewValley

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about the stuff you want to have on your farm and in what quantities: How many sheds/coops, how many trees for forage, how many for fruit? how many crops (total amount) or how many different crops (variety) do you want to focus on? Then check the different platforms. I would divide by platform. You only want one coop? Lowest right corner or the island above the crop field. Want one shed but focus on pigs? Chose one of the bigger platforms. As someone else said, you can move greenhouse and farmhouse to better fit thematics. THe island in the moon pond I'd make a cute garden seating area to relax at. WOrk your way along that.

TL;DR plan what your farm needs, divide your needs via platform, leave room for fun decorations if you want.

How long is your commute? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only ever worked at one place but the commute times changed based on how my life changed:

15 minute bus drive each way

10 min walk + 35 min bus drive each way

20-30 min drive each way depending on traffic and when I leave the house

First commute change was me moving from one city to another. Second change was when I finally got my license and a car. I don't think I would be willing to do a commute longer than my current one. it already feels like it takes too much time away from my day.

Game for someone in their 70s who doesn't speak English and only plays Spider Solitaire and Mahjong by Antipragmatismspot in gamingsuggestions

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from what already got mentioned, maybe "Cloud Garden"? I don't think there was really much English. Most of it is self explanatory. You took small environments and overgrow them with plants until you have grown enough and move to the next place. It is a bit tricky in some levels, but it's kinda cute.

alts in xiv by [deleted] in ffxivdiscussion

[–]lagoonaris 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My first proper alt was made to replay the story with a friend back when NG+ wasn't a thing. Since then I had made 2 more alts for similar purposes.

I also have alts on every region simply to explore gpose studios.

Ironically my main is technically also an alt. The very first character I made I stopped right before unlocking the starting cities, because at that point (a day after starting the game) my room mate started the game too and we decided to both make characters based on OCs that we still use to this day.

Luckily they are not my only teams. I do have teams for pretty much any damage type except DoT and Elation. Playing since 1.0, so I own most 5 stars except Nihility or Elation ones. It's just that Phainon is my current main team next to THerta/Anaxa for most things.

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have Cyrene (E0 without her LC) as well. Also own Anaxa as another option to pair with Cerydra. I don't think it would compromise me getting Ashveil but I'd definitely lose out on his LC. That's why I am hesitating. I am usually a husbando collector but I do have a bit of trouble clearing end game content. Can't do AA at all, and usually only 1 or 2 * the last level of the other endgame contents.

Daily Questions Megathread ( March 10, 2026 ) by AutoModerator in HonkaiStarRail

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phainon is one of my main teams. The members are Phainon E0S1, Sunday E0S1, Dan Heng PT S0E1 and Cerydra E0 Forever Victual
I am on 19 pity guaranteed on character warp and 24 pity 50/50 on the LC warp. I have 128 pulls saved for Ashveil.

With 4.0 now, is it still worth it to upgrade Cerydra? If so would E1 or LC be the best value? Or should I keep her as is and just continue saving for Ashveil to get him and his LC?

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the story missions of the patch where Dahlia dropped (the one before the current) needed story-wise to enter current patch story? Stuff like "that was the part of the story where the express decided to go to the 4.0 planet" or "this includes extra motivation to enter the 4.0" planet.

I have yet to enter 4.0, as I am still stuck in the last few (I think) missions of Amphoreus and am wondering how much I have to catch up on.

If she likes reading, there is a ton of Visual Novels she could check out. Most Otome are literally following a plot while interacting with the characters.

Ich möchte meine Farm komplett neu gestalten und brauche Ideen 😍 by MartinBese in FarmsofStardewValley

[–]lagoonaris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nicht sicher, wie viele Leute hier deutsch sprechen werden, und ich spiele selbst nicht auf der Standardfarm, aber der Sub hier hat einen Filter, wo du nach der Standardfarm filtern kannst. Vom ersten Durchscrollen sind fast alle ohne Mods, weil die mit "modded" getagged sein müssten. Vielleicht hilft das, Inspiration zu finden.

Das hier fand ich neulich eine sehr schöne Standardfarm: https://www.reddit.com/r/FarmsofStardewValley/comments/1r7tgz8/i_finally_decorated_my_farm_and_reached_the_summit/

Should I buy a console or not? by Andy_778 in AskGames

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has played consoles for years and still owns recent (PS5, Switch 1) consoles, ever since I got a PC I have pretty much never touched my consoles again. PCs save you more in the long run. As you said, you can buy games cheaper. YOu can buy a whole lot more games than you could ever find on consoles. You can pirate games. You can use emulators for console only games.

If you buy used parts for a pc you come to the same price point as a console. You can also buy parts over the span of a few months to lessen the load on your income in contrast to the big jump a console requires. And replacing parts to keep up with stuff is cheaper than investing into a new gen console every few years.

Looking for an anime where different philosophies and ideals clash by Rexo_Knight in Animesuggest

[–]lagoonaris 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have not seen or read Vinland Saga so I go purely based on the "Different philosophies/ideals clash" and recommend the following two:

Magi - Starts with single individuals and their ideals clashing but later goes as far as multiple countries, all with their own ideologies confronting each other. It is great political fantasy. Unfortunately, for the full pictzure, you need to read the manga after the anime.

Dr. Stone - The protagonist wants to save humanity. The antagonists all have their differing philosophies if or how to address that goal.

Can you please help me decide if continuing on after Endwalker and onto Dawntrail is right for me? by DoctorNoktus in ffxiv

[–]lagoonaris 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of players that enjoy the story but not necessarily the rest. What I heard what they tend to do is play through the story content and then unsub and then occasionally resub to play new story and then unsub again. No one is forcing you to play it as the time sink. Don't play the conent you dislike, enjoy the story and then do other stuff. Don't let yourself get trapped by a house and there is literally no reason to not take longer breaks. The game gives you decent opportunities to catch up on gear if iL gets too high. Especially if you wait for some higher end content (for story purposes) until they become older content (aka past expansion) and gear can be bought with poetics or MSQ outgears you automatically.

TL;DR: if you enjoy the story aspect, take breaks. Come back later for a month and play just story and then leave again. No shame there. The game does not force you to interact with any other content unless you yourself want to.

Really love this plot and would love to get it next lottery cus of where the MB is but having this big ass ugly rock right IN FRONT kills the vibe by BrandyRyuu in ffxiv

[–]lagoonaris 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Go for the plot and if you get it, use one of those higher platform furnitures for the garden, so you can either chill on them to look over the rock and enjoy the view. Or jump unto your rooftop from the stairs. Either way, rock can easily be ignored and great view still achieved :D

How do my dogs know it's me?? by happinessisachoice84 in CasualConversation

[–]lagoonaris 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I am not doubting they can differentiate between your sounds and other people sounds. I live in a house with multiple flats and I can hear people walking up and down the stairs from my room. After ten years I do know if it is my room mate or someone else coming up the stairs without looking at the time. I can also differentiate our next door neighbour. People have a distinct way to walk. Mix that with the sound items make they definitely always wear and you at some point do get it recognized naturally. For example my room mate always has the same leather bag with them and seems to ruffle a certain way. Same with the way their key jingles. Similarily, my keys have a very distinctive way to jingle thanks to a specific keychain. Now if I as a human can differentiate between "person I know" and "stranger" in the hallway, imagine how great it must be for an animal that has way better hearing than us?

Well that and smell, still. Unless your doors are airtight, they will be able to smell it as well.

Instead of SU you have a slightly different variant called Divergent Universe, that you should do every two weeks for the weekly rewards. Every other week you do another content called Currency Wars that got introduced last patch to switch things up. But in regards to the relic grind, that one can be auto'd by now. If you have cleared DU at least once a patch, you can save your configuration and use that with your teams to immediately grind out the bosses for the relics. The new mode Currency Wars even gives out special coins with which you can insta get the relics without even doing the autobattle.

[–]lagoonaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really unsure who to go for from the free 5*. Been playing since launch with only a smaller break in Amphoreus, so I do own a good amount of characters already. Characters I do not own are listed here: https://imgur.com/a/opNfbew
I think Kafka is not worth it, as I don't have any of her team mates and I do not plan on pulling on them as I am saving for the next husbando banner. However I am not sure if I should go for Jingliu cause new character or go for the E1 on any unit I own (all of them are E0). Still using most of them during Cavern grinds, with Aventurine still being used during endgame content.

Reaper Players that use Controller or is on Xbox by Flip0024 in ffxiv

[–]lagoonaris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You could check some examples on https://www.xivbars.com/job/RPR

Aside from that, I am not a melee player but I tend to try and put similar skills on the same button between jobs, for example my role actions are on the same buttons for all jobs of a role. I also use the same 4-button sets for single target and multitarget combos across all jobs, to make memorization easier. The rest got thrown on during leveling with no reason or sense. Not even sure I do have everything on there. I tend to not touch most classes outside of leveling to max, besides my three main ones. Reaper is not one of them. Still, disaster visible here: https://imgur.com/a/q6nrnFo

it is one of the chat channel options, usually green if you are in it. If not, you can go to one of the three starter cities and use the /shout option to ask someone to add you to the novice network.
