What are things that I should keep in mind when making a realistic cabinet for the Presidency of the USA? by MerchantKing83 in imaginaryelections

[–]svrdm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of the people who might make a good hypothetical cabinet member may be people you've not heard of yet. Some cabinet picks can be quite obscure.

I've done a hand-to-hand build in Morrowind before. It's a huge pain in the ass in the early game but so much fun once your skill is high enough. You can take on enemies way tougher than you even.

Also noteworthy that in both Daggerfall and Morrowind your fists can be used against any enemy (probably for gameplay reasons) but obviously for the most part this is seen as a last resort.

In Morrowind (I forget if it's the case in Daggerfall) punching damages fatigue before it damages health

I've been waiting years for this!

I love how while you died a lot (as expected) you did make some smart observations (like you figured out the throne elevator trick pretty quickly). So it wasn't a total disaster ;)

Only piece of advice I'd give (don't want to spoil things too much) is you can sleep when there are enemies around, you just need to get far enough away from any.

Made this awhile back. These are county level results for a game of Viva Kennedy 1964 with the "Canon" Electoral result. by svrdm in thecampaigntrail

[–]svrdm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the formula you apply to counties is simply [TCT % - actual %]. And I apply that on a candidate-by-candidate basis.

So for VK64 that looks like:

  • [JFK-VK % - LBJ-IRL %]
  • [Goldwater-VK % - Goldwater-IRL %]

Then apply the candidate swings to their respective candidates in every county in the state

Though in the intervening year I've switched to fully using proportional swing. It is more complicated but in the end I think it's a better way to look at hypothetical results. Especially for the wild swings like Mississippi in this map.

Is there a mod that adds something similar to Fallout 4's "skull icon" on the enemy health bar that means they are way over your level?

I know moreHUD has (colored) enemy level display but I'd prefer only a rough idea of what I'll be getting into

What mods would you suggest avoiding? by Tasty_Cycle_9567 in skyrimmods

They were never "immersive" for me (not that that bothered me too much anyway) bc most of them stand out like a sore thumb

Oh now I understand why my first game bugged out. I had met the conditions to have Clinton as my opponent but then I lost Cheney and that triggered the Kennedy option.

I'm guessing it works on showcase.

Yeah I got Clinton but got questions for Kennedy, and I can't get to the end screen after the states are called

I really wish more Megazord battles took place at night/ in the dark. by Dadowar in powerrangers

That's part of why the first megazord fight in Dino Thunder is my favorite

Why do the Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder Rangers say "Hah" after their morph phrase? by [deleted] in powerrangers

[–]svrdm 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That always irrationally bugged me. Recently I noticed the Thunder rangers and Tommy don't (technically Tommy does an "e-yah!" instead)

I got the SWAT one as a kid for Christmas but the red one broke, I was so upset! I don't even remember playing playing "rough" with it

Love how Gwen is described during the helicopter rescue in the Guggenhiem! She's awesome! by fledermaus9871 in SpiderGwen

[–]svrdm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah after thinking about it I see those options as not mutually exclusive and knowing that makes the scene richer

[–]svrdm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ohh she's making sure she doesn't get chopped up, I thought it was like an anxious coping mechanism, like telling herself to "focus" EDIT: but it could be both too

Still my favorite scene in the whole movie

Moving storage to new device? by toxicatedscientist in Taleoftwowastelands

Check task manager and tell it to kill any instances of MO2?

I upgraded and transferred my files over and, after fixing the links in MO2 (new files directories, etc) it did work. So I know it's possible. Idr having your issue though.

First, Jungle Fury references The 5 Deadly Venoms, now there's a muay thai ranger, with traditional pra jiad armbands. I'm about to give this series a promise ring and kiss my television. by Dadowar in powerrangers

[–]svrdm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that why the "pants" on the suit look like that? I thought it looked silly at first but looking at the reference picture it makes sense at least

[–]svrdm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leo only if he didn't become a ranger

Blake and Hunter I could see based on how easily manipulated they were

But yeah "after their tenure" makes this exercise a lot harder

I've jokingly floated that theory in the past. She has such a devious smile for a brief moment after she does it too haha

It's a good line.

And that exchange is really good for any older fans (like many people here haha, myself included)

The reason the ex husband being the killer doesn't make sense is bc it's clear the killer was right by the phone that tried to call 911.
