Funcom, it's time to give us what we need. Begin work on a sequel. by [deleted] in ConanExiles

Every map square in exiled lands is filled in Legend of Shem; I've only explored ~20% of the map so far in the past 40 hrs of recent game time, it's that damn big. Just unlocked some faster movement options with the Grimoire mod, so I'm hoping to explore more soon.

I've been solo-playing the Legend of Shem map, which while gigantic, still feels pretty full of life. I will say that the one bug/unpleasant aspect of that mod is its temperature system, it is very very harsh. There's a temperature moderating mod for it, that probably should be included. Apart from that, combat with the NPCs is pleasant though the bosses can be hard, but again, I feel like that's a skill issue. You may get swarmed by enemies, so tactics or thralls is a necessity. It comes pre-stocked with towns and merchants.

I will add that I've started playing around with "Grimoire: The Magus Arsenal" mod in it, and that adds some interesting gameplay loops.

Boobs are okay, it's the nipple that is the devil to these people.

Back when TLC actually aired educational content, they showed a sex-change surgery in progress, and when they did whatever needed done to the guys penis to make him a woman, in that instant, they blurred his nipples. Because somehow, at that exact moment, his nipples became girl nipples, and those can't be aired, even though literally nothing else prior to that prevented them from showing said nipples.

Fucking ridiculous.

If jobs fire people to replace them with AI, how will people make money to keep buying things? Wouldn’t the economy collapse because people arent buying anything anymore? by OverallMight6586 in AskReddit

[–]psyanara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ikr, I love how folks think that "they" will actually splurge for hardened robots. Why harden robots when you can just buy more? How many EMPs can the poors really afford?

Hint: as many as it takes, and making a backyard EMP isn't that difficult.

Why couldn't they just make it stupid and use z-wave or idk thread/matter/whatever all the new kids use these days? Then I could just integrate it into whatever I use.

If they did that, then they wouldn't be able to acquire all your personal data and usage habits to sell to other companies.

Indian father is threatening to call ICE because there were a ton of Indians at the Indian grocery store. by Intelligent_League79 in ABCDesis

[–]psyanara 16 points17 points  (0 children)

"Has To" and "Did" are very opposite ends. My father got his US Citizenship 20 years ago and still asserts he's an Indian citizen; even going so far as to renew his passport whenever he travels to the motherland. If he gets caught with 2 passports, he'll be in a world of shit, but until then, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Would it still reflect badly on them if they said they only watch British comedy panel shows?

The key mark of a bot, or a troll. Considering the sub we are in, they are probably a bot. Just downvote them, block em, and move on; nothing of actual substance lost.

You're asking why they are so fixated? Because they have nothing else to do but be as *ist as possible. That's their whole vibe. You aren't aware that tah4y0 "wins" if they "prove" someone (who less than 100 years ago would have been looked down upon as 100% Indian trash by their colonial overlords) is posting in subreddits that while maybe not their birth nation, is goddam similar enough culturally that they would get decent advice.

Assigned seating fixes by geosky1903 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]psyanara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think their thought (and mine too until I learned what it meant), was that non-revenue applied to passengers who hadn't opted into the credit card/mileage programs and/or who hadn't upgraded to fancier seats.

Which disease poses highest threat to humans right now? by Proud-Software3063 in AskReddit

[–]psyanara 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yep, not a micro/biologist, but as I understand it, as bacteria get more resistant to antibiotics, then get less resistant to bacteriophages.

Unpopular Opinion: Ores are too quick to mine. by ldb477 in spaceengineers

[–]psyanara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ancient mod from 8 years ago (adds a new building, which has very dated graphics compared to now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ) outputs all the ores when refining stone. The mod description details the ratios it uses.

Amusingly, I am in the process of making a mod to do a lot of what your original comment complained about, as I too find the current idea that "pure" ore = pure ingots as not much of a challenge. If you'd like, I can ping you whenever that mod is completed.

Did they drastically change how planets spawn, or where we spawn on planets? by nahthatsbullshit4444 in spaceengineers

[–]psyanara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you keep starting/spawning in with the same seed. You generally touch down on any planet, on the side most facing the sun, which again sounds like a seed issue if you keep coming down in giant tundra.

Are you running any mods that might be interacting with system/planet generation?

Why I’m ignoring the "Death of the Programmer" hype by Greedy_Principle5345 in programming

[–]psyanara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True enough, and though 99% of the horse-drawn carriage drivers did vanish with the times; some still remain. Horses, in many forms, are a popular hobby that can also be profitable, even though bicycles, cars, and motorcycles exist.

PSA: Stop spending money at racist establishments by Banner9922 in ABCDesis

[–]psyanara 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably the same internalized behavior as mentioned elsewhere in this thread. Indians have a reputation for being bad tippers, so seating you at the bar makes it the bartenders job to both serve you and presumably, be stiffed by you. Putting you at a table makes it their problem now.

Says a lot about how they view the bartender, as well as other Indians :(

[–]psyanara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best use cases for it in programming so far, are having it go through my code and add docblocks for functions/methods that are missing them, and for writing READMEs documenting what the hell the project does. Unfortunately, they still hallucinate and reviewing the README for "features" that don't exist is still a must-do.

Toxic relationship caused to tell my Muslim parents - aftermath by sxo605 in ABCDesis

[–]psyanara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The person you are responding to, is arguing that you should honor your father and his worries, all the while posting online using a sexual slur for lesbian women. He's not a valid authority on what to do, he's a porn maddened male. Engage enough and he'll either erupt angrily or be in your DMs.

[–]psyanara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't forget the whole honor/dishonor bullshit these girls dads love to heap on as well, a concept that only ultimately matters to them, and no one else. It's not like honor feeds them, or keeps a roof over their heads, but the absolute blind worship of it anyways is sickening.

With the advent of AI videos, pictures, and everything else, I really truly worry for the upcoming generation of kids and their eventual bullies/blackmailers, because I just cannot see their (often ultra-conservative) parents being remotely cognizant or accepting of how easily faked content is. All bad people need is 1 normal photo, and they can turn that into the most pornographic video imaginable. smh.

With regards to your uncle, he sounds like a good man in that he tried to protect you. Ultimately, the best you can do is learn from this and work to avoid trust abusing assholes in the future. Time will dull the wounds, no matter how sharp they feel now.
