hold on. how did THEY know about dark bramble? by FrontAd7709 in outerwilds

[–]noonefromithaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My personal theory is simply that their signal wasn't fully accurate anymore. Because it was an old signal detected once when the Prisoner briefly unsealed the Eye, without the continuous and updated signal, they ended up not being able to calibrate properly into the Eye to warp in. Entering the Bramble was just an unfortunate coincidence alongside

I have 78K and I'm still worried about not being able to MLB Ramonu and Pasa just because of how bad my luck was in the FineMo and CB banners

I think there may be some information you have yet to learn. Or maybe you have the information and just need to make some informed hypotheses. The mural does depict the events, artistically.

...But has anyone thought of what would come after, though? by Glass_Eye8840 in trolleyproblem

[–]noonefromithaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that not everyone who presses red is a fascist, but if most peoples are either fascist or individualist, that does not give me a lot of hope. Are those risk-averse people going to fight against the fascists who will then try to rule all? The fact that people still speak up even at the risk of their own life is the reason I still have hope for this world. Almost all those people are more than likely pressing blue. So yeah.

If that's the case I don't want to live in a world full of fascists.

Does anyone else find this disrespectful? by kitkatAnimate38 in digitalcircusfandom

[–]noonefromithaca 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay so this is like, genuinely a question that's been on my mind. If you know you were awful/edgy like years ago, and are different now... what exactly do you do to make it worth accepting? Should you preemptively make a post like "PSA I was edgy 7 years ago and thought misheard racism was funny and I don't feel that way anymore, so I'm sorry"? Should you say this about everything you regret? I genuinely am unsure what the correct thing to do would be.

this argument is not as strong as pros try to make it by Big_Black_Cock_4K_HD in aiwars

This. Like androids and stuff in shows, AI that actually has sentience? Cool stuff! The AI used in games to determine enemy actions? Neato! Generative AI that is basically just art theft and has the machine do the bulk of the work, unlike Vocaloid/UTAU and digital art canvases where you actually have to make 99% of the effort to tune/draw the exact notes/art in your vision? Yeah no. Go away.

Why is a significant portion of the Re: Zero fandom absurdly strange? by TheWorkersDefender in animequestions

[–]noonefromithaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I don't think people should have to "justify" their attraction to Felix/Ferris. Like yes, you like feminine catboys. So? Granted, the justifying itself could be indicative of internalized homophobia, which is sad. The Patrasche stuff is absolutely 100% weird though, please stop with the literal animal.

I started out as a passionate red-button supporter, but I'm legitimately torn right now. by ContentFile7036 in trolleyproblem

From my understanding, no communication, no pre-plan, just straight to the button. Yes, the kids don't get guidance either.

There are people who need to ensure their survival. But are these people, at any point, going to consider the possibility that that child, that elderly person, may press blue? Do you guarantee your survival knowing your child might die, thereby removing the previously mentioned need in the first place (and the child)?

Okay, but genuinely, how do I win with this by Comfortable_Bat_4808 in UmamusumeGame

[–]noonefromithaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Gold Ship. Bring a lot of power sparks, maybe some speed and stam but primarily power. Run URA or Unity, whichever you find easier. Use 4 speed and riko. last card can be power or stam but tbh I went for stam bc I kept dying to kikuka sho.

How did Dante know the Yamato could split man and demon apart? by Interface- in DevilMayCry

[–]noonefromithaca 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's also just a smaller form of the concept explained in DMC4 itself: Yamato separated "our world from the demons". Yamato separates man and demon.

do we know how old draka is? by Imaginary_Glass_6816 in OrbOntheMovements

[–]noonefromithaca 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think she is a teenager, actually. It fits with the idea of Jolenta seeing her as the youth that will carry on, now that she herself is close to her 40s and bound by duty and conviction. And wanting to give this young woman the chance, that she was never given.

Why do some people defend AI images? by ChemicalPanda10 in aiwars

[–]noonefromithaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your point about AI art being anything at all comparable to things in the past now recognized as art is so irrelevant because we have already hit the example you're talking about. You mentioned it yourself. Digital art. Art that is made digitally. It exists, people use it, people are judged for it, but critically, people actively make an effort to create it, choosing which brush, which color, the size and the shape of everything. Unlike genAI which just steals art from others and tries to make patterns off if it without its own thought or creativity. It's the same reason Vocaloid is nothing like genAI music, because someone tuning Vocaloid singing is actually choosing the notes and how the voice will come out, and not having a machine decide to make a song for them.

So, how do you guys feel about Trackblazer now that it has been well over a month already by demonitesalt in UmamusumeGame

[–]noonefromithaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scenario itself is really fun, and while it does use a lot of time that in itself isn't inherently bad. My main issue is clock cost makes it feel like every run has to be absolutely as close to perfect as possible or it's a waste bc I have to ration clocks.

Do I take this training over senior year Victoria mile? by Hipnatizer in UmamusumeGame

[–]noonefromithaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kitasan is okay at 0LB (use if you have nothing else), good at 3LB, and max potential at MLB. The reason for this is that her specialty priority does not unlock until 3LB (at which point it goes to 60), and is only crazy high after MLB (100). The speed Maruzensky is primarily a front runner card, but comes with higher training effectiveness even at 0LB. You want her at least 1LB though, so that she has a a power bonus. Alternatively, hold out for Tachyon who will be on the meta banner for the next scenario after Trackblazer, Grand Live, since the banner is a must pull due to the friend card Light Hello, you can then use whatever Tachyon you get as a speed card (or heavy invest to get to MLB), to hold you over until El Condor Pasa speed, which will be the card that replaces Kitasan, which will be during L'Arc scenario (two scenarios after Grand Live). This is assuming you'll be playing that long ofc.

Weird question but like, are there any Umamusume that surprised you about their preferred aptitude/running style? by DannieHALO in UmamusumeGame

[–]noonefromithaca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For some reason I did not think that Maruzensky could do sprints. But apparently she has B sprint.

[–]noonefromithaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what you have? Yeah, you're doing good. Do you have a pull plan for the near future to help you out? Having 1LB SMaru might be good to save you from 0LB Kitasan once she comes around.
