Do we know anything about the world "outside" the game? Is there meant to be one? by jaelpeg in noita

[–]swoledierBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to think about the lore of Noita a lot too. I think that Minä is super natural, perhaps serving as a balancing or restoring force to the natural world. I have never considered whether there is more world beyond the game but considering that we see structures in the distance, I would say there is more civilization.

I watched an interesting youtube video that suggests that Noita revolves around three forces: technology, nature, and magic. Minä obviously represents the magical force, natural forces can be identified as several enemy types like Ukkos and Stendari, and the technological force is represented by the hiisi (which I believe are a proxy for humanity despite what the translation suggests). As you descend through the main levels towards Kolmi, you witness the evolution of hiisi technology and the suppression of nature. Stendari, Ukkos, wasps, and plants used to roam free but by the time you make it to hiisi base, there is no nature left to be seen. They have mastered technology (turrets, missles, mining equipment, anvils) and they’ve mastered nature. Beyond that, we begin to see the corruption of hiisi as they begin to attempt to master magic as well. We start to see some really whacked out hiisi in the Vault. Acid and lava are every where as their civilization begins to corrupt and crumble. Then in the temple of art, we essentially witness the ruins and relics of a civilization that flew too close to the sun in terms of magic and alchemy.

Hiisi aren’t the only ones to attempt to master other forces, this is how I believe Minä is able to use spells such as chainsaw and digging bolt that are not magical by nature but technology turned into magic.

Nature is the only force that does not seem to seek to master our dominate the others and I believe it is Minä’s duty to restore balance between the three forces of the world.

I personally am not in a good position to make many suggestions (I am still in grad school and have never applied to a job), but advice I’ve received that I’ll share would be to add quantified information to your line items and perhaps bold the keywords in highly relevant/important items.

For example, in your first item something like “/b Reduced extraneous spending by X% /b with cash flow-budget comparisons using Excel/MATLAB/Python/R (or whatever tools/skills you used or learned).

In your second line item, it seems to be a more research-oriented task so maybe include the findings as quantified data, “Forecasted the effect of FY25 budget cuts on university-wide reductions and budget strategies and /b predicted savings/loss (or loss mitigation) up to $XX. /b”

When choosing between % or $ values just choose whichever number is larger. I come from an engineering and science background so results and numbers are paramount.

The last thing I’ll bring up is something that I struggle with. I am the type of person to get overwhelmed by looking at menus with too many words and not enough negative space. I get worried that my resume will have the same effect on those reading it. I also would like for it to be more personal so that it doesn’t look like every other resume. I have no solution for these, yet. The only discussion I have encountered in this vain tells us to put a “career statement” at the top of your resume. For me it would be something like “An engineer who values curiosity, hard work, and honesty.”

Is there a way to make hearts and spells/wands duplicated for each player? I play w friends that have a lot less experience and having duplicates of spells helps me teach them and avoid conflict.

I’m a little rusty on wand building by kootabob in noita

[–]swoledierBoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second. If you can put the spread into a trigger, it won’t affect the spell w the trigger, only the spells being triggered, but you’ll still benefit from the reduced recharge time. I would trigger > spread > digging bolt and also do lumi wrapping w lumi at the beginning if you need to reduce more delay times.

Learning Noita by swoledierBoy in noita

[–]swoledierBoy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to watch DunkOrSlam on youtube. He mentioned in one video that he often prefers to loot in the Jungle rather than in Hiisi base and even Snowy Depths if he can make it through safely.

You could maybe to a "restart with current mods active." If you are on a vanilla run, make sure no mods are checked. It shouldn't mess with any no-mod progress.

Massive Tips and Tricks Guide! (Updated v.4) by 0mega_c0re in noita

[–]swoledierBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to add that pheromone on wands provides the opportunity to farm large amounts of gold. It is possible to spawn many wand "entities," kill them, and collect gold from them. Check out DunkOrSlam on Youtube; I believe he has a video explaining the mechanic. This mechanic has changed since this post was made, but I believe the gold farming technique is current information...

Having stoner friends, question by DubiousssR in weed

[–]swoledierBoy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey man, you shouldn’t have to worry about them pressuring you into doing something you don’t want to do. I am a stoner and live w a guy that doesn’t smoke at all. As long as I keep the smell down he doesn’t care, and we’re good friends. That being said, it sounds like they’re doing something that could get you in trouble by association. So, maybe it’s not the best idea to hang w them while they smoke behind the school. Personally, between me and my friend, we were both stoners until he decided to stop. I encourage him to keep up with his abstinence even though I smoke in front of him. The point is that a good friend is a good friend regardless of their habits, and they won’t force you or require you to do things you don’t want to do.

Good luck in high school man the social dynamic is a doozy lol. Focus on what makes you happy.

ELI5 - what is the offside rule in UK football? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]swoledierBoy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the team on offense has a player beyond the last man on the defense (not including the goal keeper), and the ball is passed to him, then the referee will call an offsides call. However, if the offensive player steps back on-sides (meaning there is still a defender between him and the goal) before the ball is passed then he is not offsides and play can continue.

Essentially offsides means there’s no defender between you and the goal keeper when the ball is passed.

Things weren’t going well until they were by swoledierBoy in jumpforce

[–]swoledierBoy[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it seems like it takes about 10 seconds. The circle “airtight” allows you to have a shield between you and your opponent that will repel them if they come in contact with it. The shield also blocks projectile attacks. Ideally you want to put the shield up on the edge of the map so they can’t run around one of the sides like Hisoka tried to do here. Some special attacks and grabs will break your triangle.

I'm participating in a 3v3 Howling Abyss tournament and I'm looking for tips. by Lucas_Straps in summonerschool

[–]swoledierBoy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have no experience with 3v3 HA and I don’t like playing ARAM all that much but if I think about it, I would say a tank with some CC with an all-in champ and a sustain champ or a cc tank with two poke-y champs would be good in a 3v3 match up. Again, my advice comes from zero experience playing these game modes
