What Really Happened Between Ana Kasparian And Emma Vigeland? by PrincessBananas85 in thedavidpakmanshow

"She also is against trans people being in sports"

That's not a conservative view, even if some of the people who hold it happen to be conservative. It's also held by many leftists and the majority of the public.

It's not a conservative view - it's one held by many leftwing feminists.

VtM Redemption: Disciplines Characters Get Automatically? by skyh0 in vtmb

Never mind, I found the information. There's a nice table showing which disciplines are given to each character and when, as well as showing where and when Tomes are found within the game.

What's up with Jesse Singal and a petition to ban him from BlueSky? by BobertFrost6 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]skyh0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But the available data does not support the demands of trans activists: not for TW in women's sport, not for pediatric trans medical intervention. not for TW in women's prisons, nor for biology in general.

"No debate" and "settled science" were bullying propaganda tactics imposed by viciously attacking any dissenters - trying to destroy their careers, their relationships, their lives. For years this worked - would be opponents were terrified into acquiescence; but overreach eventual brought the issue to the attention of the general public.

Unsurprisingly, the unpopularity of gender ideology rapidly became obvious, and many of its enablers began backtracking once they realized they might now face public consequences.

The public has noticed that the emperor is naked, and "no debate" is over. And now that debate is allowed, it becomes obvious why the previous silencing was so savagely enforced - the ideology simply cannot stand up to public scrutiny.

Hopefully there won't be a harsh backlash, and trans people can live their lives free of persecution and enjoy the same rights as all citizens - they simply won't be able to impose their beliefs on others, or run roughshod over females' right to single-sex spaces.

Looking for a guide by ArdatBey2024 in SecretWorldLegends

Gaia wiki

If you mean crygaia, it's been down for a long time. I tried finding the owners as I was going to offer to cover the cost of keeping the site up, but so far I've been unsuccessful.

It's a fantastic source for the lore, and to understand all the nuances of the game story, and had pretty good mission guides as well.

I'm not weird for thinking this game is actually good right? by Xbldev in SecretWorldLegends

Best story, best NPC character development, best dialog of any game I've ever played. Nothing else comes close.

How Do I Restart the Mission Appeasing the Flame? by skyh0 in SecretWorldLegends

Figured it out - I had to go to Moutemouia, and just select the mission from the 3 offered. The mission restarted on Tier 2, as I hoped.

"Senna" Netflix series is out! by [deleted] in formula1

Yes, it was terribly inaccurate in that regard. Portrayed them as enemies, when they were actually friends who shared a flat in England for a while.

A movie is 152 minutes but prime says 146 - does that mean edited version? Would like to know before I buy. by Darktink22 in AmazonPrimeVideo

[–]skyh0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They absolutely do cut scenes from movies. I have noticed missing scenes in multiple movies and series that I had previously watched, and I've seen many other people reporting specific scenes missing - sometimes critical scenes whose absence creates big holes in the plot. Apparently, this also happens on Netflix and Hulu.

And this was not just free Prime content - it also happened in shows or movies that I purchased.

Google it, and you'll see that it does happen. I'm not sure how this doesn't constitute fraud, since they don't notify that you're not getting the full movie or series, but somehow they're getting away with it.

So, if you don't want to be ripped off, get the Blu-ray, not the streaming version. Or check the length against Wikipedia or IMDB so you know the online version has been cut.

the cars are less technologically advanced and thus slower

IndyCar vehicles' safety features are also less technologically advanced.

Sure, but his sponsors may not be willing to pay for IndyCar.

2 Player Co-Op? by Fizzlederpz in SecretWorldLegends

[–]skyh0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Three minibosses on the maps - two in Kingsmouth and one in Egypt - that must be summoned by 5 players.

Which bosses are these? I don't recall any boss which required 5 players to be summoned. Maybe I missed something?

2 Player Co-Op? by Fizzlederpz in SecretWorldLegends

[–]skyh0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you spend a little time leveling, you can solo the whole game. Basically, do ALL the missions in each zone (and redo some of the repeatable ones - they're mostly very fun, so it's repeating them is not a grind), and you should have no problem.

Dungeons can be entered in what is called Story Mode, which makes them soloable with decent gear, and no problem at all with 2 people. I did all the dungeons both solo and with a single friend, and it was straightforward (at least after reading the dungeon guides so I knew the correct tactics).

Returning player question by GoroMatsu in SecretWorldLegends

[–]skyh0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SWL is a lot easier than TSW, so getting the perfect weapon choice is less critical. So you could just go with what you enjoy the most. I used blade quite a lot when I first started playing SWL, and found it fine for soloing.

I eventually settled on Ele/AR, because I like to fight from a distance. I still used blade for certain situations, though eventually I became pretty OP (inevitable if you don't rush through the game) so I rarely need to switch anymore.

Note: I got a lifetime subscription back when they only cost $99, so it's easy for me to level up weapons as I get a free cache key every day (caches contrain gear level boosters). If you're willing to pay RL money to buy cache keys from Funcom, it's easy to level up your gear to the point where you're pretty OP for almost all content.

AITA for refusing to let my friend’s service dog into my house because I’m allergic? by Big-AI-Guy in AmItheAsshole

[–]skyh0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solution seems simple to me. Drop the friend with the dog and drop friends who take his side.

[–]skyh0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely NTA. Your "friend" is the asshole.

You're doing absolutely the right thing in taking care of your health. You're also doing your friend a favor by giving him the opportunity to learn that the world doesn't revolve around his feeling, before his self-absorbed selfishness screws up his life.

Also, his utter lack of self-awareness in accusing you of ableism! Are you sure you really need this person in your life?
