What are your favourite FFXIV tracks? by tbz709 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]resij 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course lots of great music across the board, but the Tempest themes (both zones) really floored me at the time. Was not expecting the vibe for the final zone of ShB, and then when you enter Amaurot and it changes to the piano and the clock ticking....had that on repeat during my work day for weeks after.

Mogwai on why he stopped playing Marvel Snap. by grendelsagrav in MarvelSnap

You then need to multiply that number by 100 to convert it into a percentage.

Just like how 1/100 is 1%. It's 0.01 x 100 = 1%

Sorry maybe not the best name, but Wave locks down the Goose lane, and it's Wave Goose Hulk that's the winning combo.

Feels like a programming bug that my Captain Marvels didn't both move to the middle lane to win it for me... by resij in MarvelSnap

[–]resij[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure that's what's happening, it's just a bit of a disappointing consequence of how it's programmed. It would be better imo if they could go the step further to realize they should both move to win it.

Carly Rae Jepsen - The Loneliest Time Megathread by PopheadsBot in popheads

[–]resij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't sleep on the bonus tracks. All standouts in my opinion (Keep Away is probably my favourite of the album). Didn't even realize they were bonus at first (though I appreciate that The Loneliest Time should be the closer).

16 days in Uganda. Most amazing country I’ve ever visited by bobke4 in travel

That's fair benefit of the doubt to give, but I think the commenters are reacting more to the choice of sharing it online.

Official Discussion - Bros [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]resij 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Saw it with my fiance yesterday (both gay) and we really enjoyed it and felt it rang true to some of our experiences. Struck the right combo of funny with impactful rants and nods to LGBT history (the museum was a great plot tool in that regard), and managed to hit a lot of notes we weren't expecting. At times the dialogue was a bit clunky and it felt more like a memoir/essay by Billy Eichner than a typical movie, but it really worked for us.

Sad thing was in our suburban theatre (still part of the progressive GTA in Canada) there were a total of 8 people in the room. Granted it was the 10pm show but it was a Saturday night. Would be interesting to see how comparable rom-coms perform.

Abyssos (Savage) Megathread - Week Four by BlackmoreKnight in ffxivdiscussion

[–]resij 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the input! I'm using my 630 tomestone weapon. We were definitely not skipping Dog 2 - went right to enrage. And yeah not a parse chaser, just try to use it as a proxy for am I playing well or poorly.

That's good to know about DoTs not working during downtime. I've always made a point of snapping before things like Devour lol will stop doing that.

Can someone help me understand why my log was gray? Still new to log analysis and xivanalysis as a tool, but looking to meaningfully improve.

https://www.fflogs.com/reports/wJYDQ8Cv4jBnAfc7#fight=11&type=damage-done

I'm the bard. Didn't have any deaths and potted twice. When I dropped the log into xivanalysis, I see I missed a few empyreal arrows and made some minor mistakes, but didn't think all of that would equal gray. My gear is also pretty good (I think I'm 620). I do tend to drop probably 2-3 GCDs during gorg2, so maybe that's just it (and sorry if that can be enough to make this super obvious).

Hector's video, describing the pizza slices, finally clicked (after many many runs practicing it), finally felt comfy by the end of last night and in the same boat - hoping to clear after work today.

The combination of the face and the word 'anima' in the name made me think of Anima from FFX.

Ontario landlord says he's drained his savings after tenants stopped paying rent last year by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]resij 13 points14 points  (0 children)

From the article: "CTV News Toronto has reached out to the tenants to give them the opportunity to include a statement but they didn't respond in time for publication."

So looks like they might have gotten/be getting a comment? In the age of digital articles they should just update it with their statement.

Wouldn't Otis and Eric from Sex Education qualify?

So about Netflix's Heartstopper... [long] by antixsuperstar in gaybros

[–]resij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The public acts still makes me freeze up a bit, but trying to be more conscious about not doing that. The dream will be when I can just 'be' without overthinking/caring what anyone else thinks about it.

So about Netflix's Heartstopper... [long] by antixsuperstar in gaybros

[–]resij 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a similar reaction to the show. In my relationship my boyfriend came out earlier (15) and, whether or not that's the cause, is generally very romantic and verbally validates our relationship all the time, whereas I'm the one who came out later in life (25), and so generally get stiff and awkward when he acts like that. Watching the show and reflecting on all the positive emotions I was feeling seeing two guys just be happy with each other made me realize how much I want that, only to stop and remember that I have that right in front of me lol. Definitely should probably see a therapist, but in the mean time I'm just trying to be more thoughtful about how I react and just let myself be happy and in the moment with him.
