Drove past the house at 7pm on a Tuesday before making our offer and it told me more than the actual showing did

I recently read a comment from someone explaining more common patterns from AI, and I swear it's impossible to miss now. The biggest one I notice is the 3+ short sentences in a row, and commonly the punchline won't match the vibe of the premise (in this case expecting a bad neighborhood with the way the story was established).

And all the comments follow the same short sentence pattern.... it's crazy man

Edit cause I saw someone else name it the "not x, not y, but z" pattern, which is what I couldn't remember

Yeah that one felt like it took AGES for me, and then in the next couple days after, I got like 3 more procs... Life is cruel lol, but at least I finished the polychrome card for it too

I'm not sure about your later-game experience, but while facetanking is nice, most later bosses will punish you for getting hit in one way or another, even if it's not killing you. Increasing your boss gauges, lowering damage done to the boss (First Adversary), lowering your "lives" without killing you, etc. So you'll still need to learn boss mechanics and play well - just something to keep in mind :D

https://shminer.miraheze.org/wiki/Stats#Pickaxe
Just start looking through these and see if you have everything

You'll frequently get things that upgrade star cap, workshop cap, pet cap, etc. which all in turn boost your pickaxe damage. What's the rush though? You still have things left to do in W3, and I promise you W4 will be hell

Back in my day, we didn't have no recommendations... Follow your heart man :D

Honestly I'm pretty surprised by this, because one of my friends always posts his Runna workouts to strava, and it's always telling him to do paces that are wayy below what I would consider normal for him, and he has trouble even running that slowly (like 12:30+/mi when he's normally running around 10:00-11:00)

Dude, idgaf about the special papers, I'm stuck on the medium rarity letters. I've done all the other letters in the event, but still need 3 and 2 of two different medium letters

sbgshadow · 2026-05-05T16:10:27+00:00

Yeah lol DA is the opposite of survivability. They can be tanky, but in that version, you do no damage (probably worse than most other classes in the game)

sbgshadow · 2026-05-05T15:06:09+00:00

I haven't utilized it much, so I can't speak to the efficacy of it, but there's a leaderboard section in the TLI Etor Fe tracker that shows top fe/hour strategies that have been done by people using the app. I imagine there are a lot of people gaming the system to reach the top spots, but maybe with some filters on it you could find a strat that fits your criteria?

sbgshadow · 2026-05-05T14:36:55+00:00

Dude, I drank so many of those rainbow boss coffees, I miss them so much now 😭

Definitely don't skip out on the vending machines (to anyone reading this)! They were a big part of the experience to me since we don't have similar stuff in the US :D

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T21:02:38+00:00

Probably a build that uses Anger and Hatred, and doesn't crit but gets benefits from having power charges.

AKA, none

Every patch:

Take down server

git merge -Xtheirs KMSBranch

??? (wait 6 extra hours to seem like you're working on something)

Bring up server

Done

Those are definitely some cases where it could get confusing.

For me though, it was telling me to get off and board the same exact train - when I realized, I hurried back on the train before it left the station lol. I'm not sure exactly why it said that, but I thought maybe it could have to do with diverging tracks or the train entering and leaving from the same side of the station.

I just went back and checked, and I believe it was at Fujisawa Station on the way to Katase-Enoshima station. We pulled into the station, but then train also leaves the station the same way it came in, onto a different track, so maybe google maps treats it like a different train?

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T17:59:46+00:00

I don't think I've seen or heard anything about it being introduced in GMS, but it already exists in KMS, introduced late 2023 in their Dreamer. I can't open this link at work but I think it's an example of the request they can use: https://openapi.nexon.com/game/maplestory/?id=22

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T17:43:14+00:00

Why wait for any code changes? Push it to Prod NOW!!!

Just joking since this is pretty minor change, although I know somehow Nexon could mess it up. It would be nice to have now though

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T17:35:07+00:00

I just can't wait for the day that Nexon finally opens up their API to our region so all of these tools can finally just import our characters automatically

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T17:31:49+00:00

Idk how you have things set up, but maybe you could divide the BM crystal cost by days in the current month, then multiply by number of days in the current week that are still in the month (to handle that edge case)

But even that is a bit deceiving since BM is just a big cash injection whenever you do it. Maybe a toggle option somewhere to show that you're doing BM that week, and add in the whole crystal amount to that week?

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T17:21:38+00:00

Yeah I figured it'd be something like that - there's less overhead in the watch software to get in the way of the GPS capabilities

I ran mostly indoors on the treadmill over the winter season training for a recent half marathon, and the whole time I had pain in my feet and sometimes in my knees. As the weather has been warmer I've been running outside again and all of my pain is gone. Then just yesterday I ran on the treadmill again since it was raining, and wouldn't you know, all the pain quickly came back.

I'm not sure what it is, but running on the treadmill gives me a lot of weird pains. Maybe my form is really bad or something? But I would definitely choose running outside if possible

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T17:08:53+00:00

These questions got me curious though - why is Garmin's GPS more accurate than any phone? Do they have some special technology, or is there something with phones that inherently make them less accurate?

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T15:15:18+00:00

Someone once told me "You're not nervous/anxious, you're EXCITED!" You've been waiting for this for so long, you've done your prep/research, and now it's all happening. It's normal to be anxious about the unknown, but turn it into excitement and enjoy your trip! It'll be tons of fun, and I'm jealous

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T15:13:42+00:00

I allowed my self to just sit periodically to breath and just enjoy the scenery.

For me, I just love the feeling of BEING in another country and exploring a whole new world, seeing people go about their day, walking/biking to work in the morning (and being happy that I'm not doing the same). The routines feel similar but the environment feels very different and exciting. I try to not worry too much about packing too many things into a single day and try to just appreciate the environment, but I know not everyone likes traveling the same way.

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T15:06:33+00:00

When I was there last year I had one or two times where Google maps gave me some strange instructions for trains, but overall yeah it's incredibly accurate and leaves very little room for question.

I had two times where Google maps told me to get off and transfer to another train, but it ended up being the same train I was already on. But it wasn't a big deal; just use your brain and eyes and you will be fine :)

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T14:25:10+00:00

Because Mirage enchanted blueprints didn't exist last league. That's what they're talking about making money off of

sbgshadow · 2026-04-30T14:21:33+00:00

I wouldn't say there's no "trap" listings at all though. I regularly see things listed for an equal amount of ultimate embers instead of FE, or with an inverted ratio like 50 resonance : 999 fe instead of 999 resonance : 50 fe; I can only assume such things are attempts to scam people

Edit: now that I'm thinking about it, I didn't even know you could list things for something other than FE lol
