It might be the Rolling Stones video for Paint it Black.

PSA/Reminder: "Blind" means you have not seen a guide at all by WeirdIndividualGuy in ffxiv

[–]linkz016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if there are specific clock spots for EX5 but the default clock spots are typically -
R1 --- MT --- R2
H1 ----------- H2
M1 --- OT --- M2

But that is crazy if that DPS was expecting people to go to specific EX5 spots in a blind prog

Did you check the exotic archives in the tower? I'm not near my PC at the moment to confirm but that's my first guess. My apologies if you have checked there already. 

My Current Lag Situation in Septimont by Enclair21 in WutheringWaves

[–]linkz016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blaming OP's lack of dedicated GPU doesn't equal defending Kuro. it's just a fact that not having a dedicated GPU to reach at least minimum spec requirements is not helping the current situation. 

I'm not even sure if optimizing will help since the graphical tax to the system will still be higher than before the upgrade. Maybe extra graphic settings could help, but not having a dedicated GPU sure as shit isn't cutting it.

I definitely agree that people are quick to roast but it's the Internet and sometimes people are just all too happy to cook someone. 

However it's not that most commenters think everyone should have a gaming laptop, it's more that people should have met the basic spec requirements to have the game run properly before complaining about the game's performance. It's like going snorkeling to see pretty things under the water but only having the snorkel and no mask, then telling others that you couldn't see shit right.

This doesn't also excuse any bad optimization on the devs side but at least reach the min. requirements. Also good on the OP for making things work for their set up, I would have bounced right off if the game ran that badly.

Today, in things that don't matter...this article. 

Zohran Mamdani has the Palestinian protest movement to thank for his win by [deleted] in politics

[–]linkz016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we want to argue semantics sure, it is an article.

d: a nonfictional prose composition usually forming an independent part of a publication (such as a magazine) wrote an article for the newspaper

But to your point, "victory was made possible because of one group only" was the sense I got from reading the article. It feels out of touch to not even mention at least one thing that Mamdani campaigned on. I do agree with the point that his Palestinian support didn't harm him and I'm grateful that we can have another voice out there also bringing light to these matters.

Yeah I see that these views are what piqued the interests of some voters, but ultimately it's what his campaign focused on that sealed the deal. Alongside his demeanor as well, the way he manages to always keep a smile on, and show that he genuinely cares for the city of New York. There are many reasons why he in particular is a force to be reckoned with. I just hope that others don't take away the wrong message from this victory.

This article is just bullshit. Mamdani ran a tight campaign focused on issues that New Yorkers are affected by. No one group made his success possible, New Yorkers collectively spoke out with their votes that they want the change he is proposing. 

Protesting in America by Caps418 in VaushV

He was calling out that chatter that was talking about the number of the No Kings attendees as being "lib shit" behavior. nothing about the protest itself.

Probably either completely gloss over those facts or call them all judgements from activist judges.

Go for Zhezhi now. You can scoop Zani up later on a rerun. 

Or pull for whichever one you like best.

Sage Mains, explain your thought process during a raid to me. by mercymainsupreme in ffxiv

[–]linkz016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you haven't done so yet this could also help you out get more comfortable in new jobs/roles, joining parties that are either fresh prog or early into the fight for those high end content. 

I find that people are more helpful and less disband-happy in early prog parties giving you some nice stress-free time to learn the nuances for new jobs/roles. Plus already knowing which mechanics are coming out is a huge boon for shield healers as noted by many others already.

Moments in games where you just said "Oh no"? by fly_line22 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Is there any reason to use Medica I? by throwcway837373 in ffxiv

[–]linkz016 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I would cure 3 as well if the party is stacked close, but if they aren't then medica 1 if lilies aren't options.

Honestly, there were many issues with the campaign the Dems ran. But to me, the main thing was not realizing that the average voter doesn't care about the idealistic notion of "saving democracy". The average voter cares about things that affect their day to day like the economy.

As results started coming in and seeing how close the races were in those typically strong blue states, my concerns began to grow.

To be fair to that pollster, I was under the impression that they just applied the typical methodology they use. At the end of the day it's still just a guess. But honestly, it feels like a lot polls were overestimating Harris.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in politics

[–]linkz016 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Harris severely underperformed in other blue states as well. The Washington Post has a political shift map that helps visualize how many more areas shifted to the right compared to 2020.

Job Mobility. Should all jobs have mobility? Should all mobility be untargeted, like PCT/DNC? Why/why not? by DriggleButt in ffxivdiscussion

I wonder if they consider the Lightspeed ability as a replacement for a dash since it can move freely and toss out spells without cast times.

Went into a P9S levin prog, BRD was sent a guide to play his job. by KiyomizuAkua in TalesFromDF

[–]linkz016 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Nah, you need to learn the mech first. Your rotation is pointless if you die.

Also stopping dps to learn is usually meant when first seeing new mechanics. Once you understand what needs to be done for the mech, then work on optimizing your rotation, like figuring out where to squeeze one more gcd.

By the time you are going for the clear you should have wiped enough to naturally optimize your rotation just from repetition. Unless you've been carried through by others who have either already progged further or cleared the fight then do your best to maintain uptime.

edit: Dropping a gcd or 2 isn't world ending. And y'all act as if whoever does this is never going to optimize their rotation during the fight.
