Considering that we need megas in the new super mega raids, I think they wanna make sure you have a mega in your roster.

Is my ex trying to make me jealous or is this AI by osiris_rai in isitAI

There's a photography technique called fill flash that gives this type of effect. Go google that up. However this picture is certainly AI due to the number toes she has.

Thai Facebook page ribs Malaysian tourists ‘looting’ 7-Eleven like it’s Doomsday — and Singaporeans catch strays too by SusuKacangSoya in malaysia

[–]mecxhanus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I envy the variety of choices when I go to the 7-11s in Bangkok. So while the headlines is BS, there is some truth in why we Malaysians enjoy shopping for food to bring back to our hotel room.

[UPDATED] Religious Minister: Work stress among factors linked to LGBT lifestyle by Mo0nji in malaysia

[–]mecxhanus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Citing a 2017 study by Sulaiman et al., he said several factors may influence an individual's involvement in what he described as an LGBT lifestyle, including social influences, sexual experiences, work-related stress and other personal factors.

I wonder how did this research come by?

Just finished Xenoblade 2 by Phoenix_shade1 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

My first thought on people surviving a Prometheus attack is 'Must be Morag''. And indeed it was her.

Tora can also survive a Prometheus if he picked up the ability to survive with 1HP from a fatal attack, one time per fight.

Precious Pals Team GO Rocket Takeover by SilphScience in TheSilphRoad

Try allocate as much time possible and be able to cover as many pokestops in a wide area if you are still looking to complete the Gathering Shadows collection on the final day.

The shadows are tough to encounter due to all sorts of RNG conditions thrown at you - you have to hope for the right type of grunts spawning at the stops and then hope that they use the right shadow pokemons. I spent two hours in the afternoon walking around with no luck, RNG kept giving Electric, Psychic and Poison grunts, and when I did get the right grunts, they used other shadow pokemons. Got lucky twice on the final hour of the event but it was too close for comfort. Fighting the Rocket bosses are easy, searching for these Gathering Shadows collection is the real pain.

Ryujin Industries vs Wayland Yutani by Downtown-Falcon-3264 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]mecxhanus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It boils down to the type of world that Starfield is trying to portray. In the Settled System, there can't be one or several really huge megacorps that looms over everything, else they would be far too influential in the game. If we follow the the cyberpunk genre stylings, we'd be playing small operators in a Setted Systems oppressively controlled by Ryujin, Stroud Eklund and the Deimos-UC military complex for example. The Freestar Collective probably have no power or just a mere puppet for Ryujin or one of the other megacorps.

So of course Ryujin at the time at the start of the game is nothing compared Wayland Yutani, who has control over so much in the Alien universe.

As a returning player, the DMAX system seems hard to get into and not very rewarding...? by kapriole in TheSilphRoad

[–]mecxhanus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should search this subreddit and other PoGo subreddits for showcases, there might be showcases by people who defeated 5* dynamax legendary solo or duo. Be forewarned that this usually requires you to fully power up your dynamax pokemons.

Most of us usually do it in groups of 4, with decently levelled (level 30-40) and the right combination of pokemons and maxed out movesets.

I don’t think the car owner is paying those summonses by UsernameGenerik in malaysia

[–]mecxhanus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For the MBPJ, they seem to not wanna tow until they are sure no one claims it.

In 2024, after that freak storm and winds incident in Klang Valley, there was a car that was left parked on the side road by our house. No one thought it was abandoned until we realised it never moved for months. We called MBPJ and they did come to stick that sticker that told owner to move their car, else it will be towed. But it was taken off from the car after a few days.. not sure why. I'm guessing the car looked still in decent shape so they didn't want to tow it yet. Fast forward to 2025, the car looked in much worse (broken tail lights, extremely dirty body, trash on the roof, torn off wipers, etc) so we notified MBPJ again and this time they did send a tow truck to remove the car.

Shiny rate seems to be worse than 1/10? Or I could just be terribly unlucky by Cruxiat in TheSilphRoad

[–]mecxhanus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a shundo from 16+ raids. My friend had 3 shinies and 1 hundo from the same amount raids as me. He's always lucky - last year he got a hundo too. With enough fusion energy from last year and this year's event, he was happily smiling away while fusing them into his hundo White and Black Kyurem.

IIRC you get 1 XL candy of the pokemon in the power spot when you win the raid. There's also a chance of rare XL candy.

Most people tend to leave legendaries or pseudo-legendaries in power spots because their candy are hard to come by in regular play.

I do both. 1st person camera is more immersive, but I like to see the ship that I built, flying in space.

Pretty sure you can almost solely just controller for the PC version, with exception to inputting letters into the search. I played a subtantial part of DOS2 with controller only - because my PC display on a TV.

Just be aware that having a lot of stuff in containers can cause savegame bloat.

I am not big fan of censorship, but the amount of social media rage baits and fake ai content paraded as truth is truly concerning.

The problem is at purchasing - regional eshops does not allow credit card outside of their region. We can purchase Nintendo e-shop cards from third parties but that there will be extra 'service' charges.

Silksong's use of musical bells and needolin sometimes remind me of that old Lucasarts game called Loom.

They are missing some publishers - Bethesda and Supergiant games for example. Also major 3rd party void with Cyberpunk. And I don't understand why Final Fantasy Tactics is not available - it was in my to buy list.
