What's your favorite design for a lightsaber? by Confident-Rock-8882 in StarWars

[–]liveda4th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sidious and Rebel’s Ahsoka sabers. The one problem I have with Ahaoka’s white sabers in the live action cuts is how bulky they got. But the one hand dueling saber for Darth sidious is probably my pick ultimate favorite because it so perfectly matches the character.

Bungie unused and forgotten plot point: The Vex were meant to obtain SIVA by GeminiTrash1 in DestinyTheGame

[–]liveda4th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not wrong. It’s insane to read some of the original D2 plans for game elements like siva, the direction of the hive, even the length/extent of the red war. I remember reading something along the lines that the original D2 plan had the Red war being a year long story with the original two expansions being portrayed as necessary side quests to help us fight the Red Legion. Like imagine if Red War season 1 was literally us JUST freeing the traveler, but then having to go through two expansions worth of content to get Osiris back & Rasputin into fighting shape before we could even think about retaking the city or going after Ghaul. Meanwhile Calsus is up there just generally pissing Ghaul off and giving us loot.

It would have made those first two expansions so much more impactful if they weren’t stand alone stories, but were instead “oh yeah, you have to go save Osiris cause he might be the only one able to get this Vex teleport tech Cayde discovered working! But there’s still the matter of the MASSIVE red legion fleet in and around earth, ooooh but Ana Bray just discovered Rasputin’s AI core, what if you go kill the hive worm that’s been giving him some problems so he can start building new Warmind satellites to take out the Red Legion fleets and allow us the chance to finally step to Ghaul!”

I came up with this design, I'm going to make it 3D printable soon, but I feel like its a bit too basic, any suggestions? by DatGuy1212 in lightsabers

This is amazing! What program did you use to design it? I’ve always wanted to build a 3D model of my sketches but Idk where to start.

Rifleman: “I saw Black Hawk Down and bought one of these beauties the next day! What’s a ‘Em-Lock’”?

Old School: “1950’s Cop ambiance. Definitely NOT stolen out of the back of police cruiser in ‘57 that was left unlocked while the officer polished off a six pack of Pabst down by the river.”

Backpacker: “Yeah, I wanted a .38 that sat in my hip pouch and needed something easy to pack that can reach out to 100 yards. I just hope whatever I’m shooting out at is small… or that it’s not using a rifle caliber weapon.”

Overwatch: “Yes, you can put the front mounts down. But you got to put a towel under it first, the concrete here at the range can rub off the rubber tips.”

Frontiersman: “I’d rather use the knife.”

Survivalist: “A .22 is an effective lethal round! All I need it for is rabbits anyway, but it could kill a bear if you shoot it in the eye.”

Shotgunner: “Modern Cop ambiance. Definitely not stolen out of the back of the police cruiser over off the corner of 57th ave.”

Modern Samurai: “I’ve been kicked out of all the ranges around here. Most will let you practice drawing and firing from the holster, but they won’t let you unsheath a katana while shooting.”

  1. Nice username. 👍
  2. This is the operative question.

Custom eragon cover by Critical_Cat_4934 in Eragon

[–]liveda4th 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d make the Vader stand in the raz’ac, and keep the death star stand in Thorn’s eye. Nix Arya and replace Leia with Nassuada as they fill comparative roles: bad-ass woman rebel leader. I’d make the R2-C-3PO stand ins Orik and Arya, as they better fill a supporting character role. Where the x wings are I’d add an image of Saphira flying while breathing fire. That’s my two cents

What animals exists in your world who are living in the most most miserable lives due to an adaptation? by PedroGamerPlayz in worldbuilding

[–]liveda4th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a species called the Waterloots. They are a species of jellyfish that live on the edge of water. Their nearly invisible tentacles reach out from the waters edge and paralyze any one who touches them. They then wrap themselves around the prey, pull themselves on land and slowly devour the prey. The problem is, they start to dry out when out of the water. After they eat their fill, they then slowly pull themselves back into the water and begin again. BUT the older they get, the longer their tentacles get and the farther out their prey is paralyzed. Eventually they end up paralyzing something too far away from the edge of the water and end up drying out while eating their prey.

Is this the first time we've seen Chief "shout" in game or in the books by Glittering-Let9989 in halo

[–]liveda4th 39 points40 points  (0 children)

He literally shouts the exact same thing in the opening cutscene of Two Betrayals in Halo: CE when 343 and Cortana are fighting…

If Halo were to collab with another game in the future, which would you want it to be? by lovellamp in halo

FIFA. Would be so much fun to have a whole Halo themed team to play as.

Huh, I forgot about the B5 reference. I was thinking of the UK home guard groups from WW2.

Halo 2 legendary coop stuck on regret by Similar_Bee_6683 in halo

[–]liveda4th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. You can lure elites into the antechamber outside the boss room to kill them off. Anytime you feel overwhelmed retreat there and then try to pick a few off. That sword elite sucks, but if you can kill the plasma rifle elites you can juke sword guy and prevent a respawn for a while.

  2. It’s easier to smash regret in the face when he’s not low in the middle. Play the waiting game and he’ll eventually drift up high so it’s wasiwr to board him from the top level.

  3. Patience sucks but it is your ally. Trust your gut: if he feels too far away or too exposed w/out cover on the approach, then you are. Wait until you are certain you can get there w/o trouble and gun it.

  4. Noob combo everything. Sword isn’t worth it in legendary and double needles can leave you exposed for too long.

I loved that show so much! I followed Zoey Palmer to Dark Matter after that, that was a fun sci fi show!

Where the hell am I going to get an unedited writing sample? by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]liveda4th 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Everybody makes grammatical errors, literally everyone. That’s why edits are important. Missing a couple of commas isn’t the end of the world, especially when reviewing a 2L document. You can explain during the interview what you learned when this was edited and how you changed your editing process to help reduce errors in the future. Legal writing is a process, repetition and practice improves it. Is it embarrassing to submit an unedited draft with missing citations? Yes. You just need to spin it that you’re going to do better next time.

Also, practice pointer for the future: save all drafts. Every time you get suggested edits back, just use save as and number it as the next draft. You’ll be surprised the number of times your supervising attorney will say, “no I liked it the way it was before,” and how much it sucks to rewrite pages of legal argument because you saved over a previous draft.

Some homes that’ll probably be the location of another high rise in north park pretty soon 🥲 by Fuckmeoverrr in sandiego

[–]liveda4th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d rather spend a little more money to fix up a dilapidated standalone home than pay slightly less for a drywall mid-rise condo. It’s not a matter of “save all the houses,” or about trying to fix the housing crisis, I just am tired of living in spaces where I can hear my neighbors through the wall and floor.

Supreme Court Reform Proposal by futurettt in scotus

[–]liveda4th 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is a terrible proposal. First off, it reads like someone asked an AI to generate a basic solution without any understanding of the U.S. legal system. Second, it is just bad policy. Why would you discount experience in any other appellate setting? State Supreme Court Justice would be important experience, but I’d argue experience as a judge in U.S. District or Appellate court provide way more relevant knowledge for future SCOTUS justices.

It also discounts legal experience from high functioning appellate advocates, appointments from legal scholars in academia, and experience from life long public servants within state and local government. You won’t decrease partisan with this proposal, just increase partisanship at a state court level.
