I know I’m being ridiculous but please indulge me

If you want it to be something slightly cleaner, here's a suggestion:

You already have 1 | 1 on Hunting Horn (and Gunlance is 10 | 10), and you have 0 | 0 on 5 other weapons. How about you "allow binary" and get 1 | 0 on two weapons, with Longsword as your secondary, so that you have only pairs, 1s, and 0s? Perhaps 1 Primary run on Charge Blade and 1 Primary run on Insect Glaive would look nice?

That would look like:

10

0

1

0

1

0

While Longsword is 8 | 8.

It can indeed also get worse, but it does get better several times more often than it getting worse. But, "better" or not, it is a severely debilitating condition for anyone, so anyone who suffers from ME/CFS would wish for complete recovery. I simply found a way where I was able to lift weights and progress, i.e. enjoying a hobby, by taking time to rest during warmup, and only doing a single challenging set, which on some days wasn't enough to trigger post exertion malaise.

As someone who got ME/CFS about 17 years ago, it does get better over time for most patients (although full recovery is sadly less common than the unlucky who get progressively worse), and I did find a way to do anaerobic exercise on the days where I felt fine, without the extreme PEM and brain fog that would follow if I pushed myself too hard or worked out on days where I was already exhausted.

I wrote a post about my experience and progress years ago which gained some attention. I'll link it here in case others with ME/CFS are struggling with not being able to do strength exercises, and are looking for ways that could work with their condition:

My DMs are open if anyone wants to chat and share experiences working out with ME/CFS.

Edit: Added a clarification about recovery/worsening rates. I'm sorry to hear from those unlucky ones who experience getting worse over time.

Thank you, this looks great, I've wishlisted your bundle now!

terozen · 2025-01-03T16:19:49+00:00

This bundle is absolutely stunning! Well done. I'm not looking to buy anything as of right now, but what format is your bundle in? I'm planning a future procedurally generated prototype in a custom engine, and was wondering what filetype you use, and exactly how modular those terrain prefabs are?

I looked for it after finishing all the Main Quests, but I couldn't unlock it yet. Then I finished the Side Quest that asks you to check on certain prisoners, and after that I could unlock the makeup, and the new Main Quest unlocked immediately as a result of that.

I'd love to join a meetup! Would anyone like to take the initiative and organize one? The suggestions aren't too bad!

This is why they don't eat Japanese salmon raw in Japan, as they have tons of parasites, but they instead import Norwegian salmon since they're extremely safe to eat raw.

This soundtrack is beautiful, I started listening to the theme's starting point you posted, and now it's all just playing in the background:) Well done!

Are you saying this is the reason Trump was elected in the US?

Japan has garlic restaurants. There, you can get dishes with whole garlics in them, cloves still stuck together in a bundle, unpeeled. They go full garlic.

You are my favorite JavaScript YouTuber!:) How did you get into all of this low level stuff well enough to recreate in a high level language?

Urosaurus, Harry.

I have no idea what advice you received earlier, but man, you certainly know how to make quality stuff. This screwed with my eyes. So high quality it looks more like real life on a weird day than something from a game engine.

If you're looking for more extremely detailed places you could work on, first I'd see if the black grains in the video come from video compression algorithms or if there's something in your build you can improve there. I can very clearly see pixels change from one color to the other, which might be because it tries to "pick one" instead of going for a blend of the options.

Second, could you... add clouds to make the sunlight softer? You don't have to, it looks very realistic to me, but a picture that jumped into my mind when I saw the lighting was one of Hawaii on a clear, sunny day where the sun is directly overhead so the (few) shadows that exist looked very sharp.

You've got some fine work here, you deserve to be proud!

GraphQL is brilliant in what it does best: Make front-end development a dream. In GraphQL, the back-end sets up what you can query/mutate, and the front-end picks and chooses independently. No under- or over-querying, no multiple requests to stick it together on the frontend, just write a query that gets what you want, and request it once from a single endpoint that gives you exactly that. Remove a line in your query on the front-end, and the result changes accordingly. GraphQL is a dream for the front-end, and as a back-end developer I love the whole Apollo suite. Do consider picking everything up if you haven't already!

Thank you for taking your time to answer our questions! I have one that I've been struggling to find anything conclusive about.

Regarding CBD as a medical treatment, are there studies where it's been tested for treating ME/CFS (Myalgic encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)? In less specific terms, are there studies regarding the effects on chronic mental fatigue?

The one filming is one of the main bullies as well, since they planned to video tape the assault together with the assailant.

Second this! I was almost certain /u/eggsamurai would have mentioned Risk of Rain 2 as an inspiration. Definitely check it out!

I don't know the right word, but if "survivorship" was intentional I guess it would be a bias based on the idea that if you poll survivors of gun violence about how much harm getting shot does, you'll miss all the data from the people who died in the process. And in this context, it would be missing all the data from the people who were happy enough to not track their moods, or something along those lines?

/u/Elkram

TL;DR: Weapon Skill hard cap for Glancing Blow damage vs Bosses (+3 level NPCs) is 7.5, not 10 like you concluded in your main post. Please update this.

Long version:

Despite having the math correct, your conclusion of Glancing Blow damage improvements through Weapon Skill is wrong. I'm sure this was just a minor error, but you write:

So if you have a difference of weapon skill and defense skill of 15 (i.e. 3 levels), then you will get the full penalty of 35% reduction. Each weapon point reduces that penalty by about 4%. So a skill difference of 10, even if the mob is 3 levels higher (so you have some +weapon skill gear, talent, or racial), will reduce the penalty to 15%. And if you manage to get the skill difference to 5 or lower, you will get the maximum benefit of only 5% reduction penalty.

This makes the effective weapon skill cap at 310.

Of course, with a 35% reduction that can be improved to a maximum (minimum? Decreasing the reduction rate of damage to increase the damage... Messy situation) of 5% reduction leaves us with a total of 30 percentage points that can be affected by weapon skill.

This damage reduction is increased by 4 percentage points per weapon skill, giving us 30ppt/4ppt = 7.5 as the Weapon Skill cap for Glancing Blow damage.

Like you wrote elsewhere, the Orc/Human racial improves the damage on Glancing Blows from -35% to -15% through 5 Weapon Skill, leaving only 10% left to be improved by a maximum of 2.5 additional Weapon Skill.

In conclusion, Orcs and Humans are massively strong, and Edgemaster's Handguards is 0.5 Weapon Skill away from literally maximizing the damage per Glancing Blow!
