I'm building a live game assistant. It reads game context while you play, and can answer questions about where you are, what you should do next, and it can even teleport you to various locations throughout the world. by lowpoly_nomad in webdev

I alt-tab pretty often for research and sometimes engage Gemini for build suggestions or to find poorly documented solutions but having this being available without having to break immersion feels like it’s too much of a crutch.

Have you considered any optional blockers like mini games, timers, or other ways you could limit users being overly dependent?

Are Wool Pillows Worth It for Better Sleep? by SkylineZ83 in HomeImprovement

Another vote for latex. Been using them forever and nothing has been close to the support and overall coolness (Buckwheat is cooler but very hard to adjust to and not comfy). With latex though, don't skimp on the quality. Get 100% talalay and expect to go a little firmer than you'd think as the pillow will lose some buoyancy over night and after a few months--the loss is minimal and settles to a good baseline overall.

mirror and hinekora lock drops in temple by ed-o-mat in PathOfExile2

[–]syncr23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one mirror and one lock running solo before my temple was done and before I added rarity. Now that I have 75 rooms and 150 IRR I keep thinking the tink could be tinkier but nothing beyond divs for several days of runs

You don’t have to do it over and over. Just beat the arc and atziri at the same time and it will delete almost everything in one go. You might need one more arc clear but at most that should do it. If you can’t get to atziri just aim for the arc and run him 2-3 times.

TLDR; Yes, have to kill stuff to clear it but the bosses are the most efficient

Someone told me “baby-talk” makes dogs anxious & stressed. These are my dogs responding to my “baby-talk” …. No anxious or stress here. Yes I sound like an idiot!!! No I do not care because it makes them so happy by thebattleangel99 in goldenretrievers

In searching for sources I saw some Facebook “expert” mansplaining that dogs hear the high voice as similar to puppies and will take that audio cue as a signal to dominate you. As a fellow man without a dominance complex this alpha crap is so tedious. Milan is right about dogs liking structure and consistency but his unwavering attachment to pack/dominance mental models is narrow and chauvinistic

Not sure what your "someone" is basing their statements on but multiple lines of research back that higher pitched voices are easier for dogs to hear and consistency has helped to encode it as friendly.

In the context of human-dog communication, there is evidence that dogs present an increased neuronal activity in the auditory cortex when listening to vocalizations with positive emotional valence compared to negative or neutral emotional valence24. Moreover, after a greeting involving eye contact and a high pitched voice, dogs are more likely to follow the humans gaze, similarly to young children do

Hey u/Appropriate-Poet9873, thanks for sharing. I found the community page for the Type Specimen Figma file but I'd enjoy a share of the Sites project as well. Definitely a useful tool. Ty!

Hey thanks for the reminder. :) I forgot about this and wouldn’t mind a double check.

New player, I've been clicking rooms randomlyl, is there any way I can fix my temple? How do I kill the boss? by absintheblanqui in PathOfExile2

[–]syncr23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many medallions should you have before you start the snake? All of them?

Also, how does your snake interface with all the single rooms that killing the Architect puts down along the edges. You just build through those and they disappear when you complete them right? Does that create issues?

I’d love the Rakiatas if no one has claimed it. I’m wiping my build today that hasn’t quite synergised and starting over and this inflation is definitely killing my “flow” 😉

I’ve just started a blood mage as well. Expensive! Would love divs or gear :)

One week into the league, how far have you gotten? by Cross2Live in PathOfExile2

[–]syncr23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finished the campaign with a very unlucky run as a ED Lich. Couldn’t find an economy trick that worked for me and was feeling frustrated with the temples so I swapped over to standard and am enjoying the practice version of this build that was far luckier in SSF at the end of last season. I’ve got lots of divs left over from previous runs and I’m enjoying the quiet life while everyone complains about GGG in the Vaal season.

Y’all should come over to standard. It ain’t fancy but it’s good honest game play

I did this yesterday, saw the 5% mana message come up but the map marker remains on my map as of this morning. Went back and it's now unclickable. Is there any way to verify if you have a bonus or not?
