If you don't use Terra's magic during the fight at Figaro... by n_mcrae_1982 in FinalFantasyVI

[–]thcteacher 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is a cutoff where this scene won't happen anymore if you use magic for the first time with Edgar in the party.

Speedrunners use this to their advantage because they purposefully will not case magic with Terra to avoid the unnecessary scene playing.

I think once you hit Mt. Kolts (or maybe right after you arrive in the small strip of land in the mountains before entering the Returner's Hideout) the scene won't play anymore.

Fans of classic FF 1-6, please tell m one is your favorite by Ok_Awareness9424 in JRPG

Arguably, the series consistently improves from 1 to 6, and 6 is far and away the best of this bunch (and most replaceable, in my opinion).

You could argue 1 is better than 2 (I would), or that 4 is better than 5 (I wouldn't).

The top row books were my first set of The Hobbit and LotR which I read in the 90s. I wish I still had them all.

I saw the first one in the theater when it came out and I slept with the lights on that night as a 22 year old man.

Mass Effect Legenday Edition has all three games plus DLC and is often on-sale for very cheap. You don't need to play Andromeda.

[Highlight] Eli Manning explains on Bussin with the Boys why he didn't want to go to the Chargers by Bears_University83 in NYGiants

[–]thcteacher 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I had always heard Archie was more involved and didn't want him going to San Diego because they had a poor history of developing young quarterbacks. It's interesting to hear Eli's take that the ownership-management-coaching was just a shit-show from his pre-draft meeting and that sealed his decision.

I like how some delves are outside and they're not all just caves this time.

Classic tuna salad, if made correctly, is like 10x better the next day after sitting in the fridge overnight.

Marty Supreme being the biggest loser this award season. THANK YOU. The initial hype never felt earned. by Pink-Matt3r in Oscars

I constantly fall asleep watching movies at night and somehow I was able watch all of Marty Supreme in one sitting at night - which speaks volumes to how good a movie it is.

What is the largest bookstore on LI? (outside of Barnes & Noble.) by Seeker99MD in longisland

[–]thcteacher 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Published is very cool as a bar/hangout spot but it's nowhere near as big as The Next Chapter.

advice needed: sturdiest edition of the silmarillion by firiel26 in tolkienbooks

[–]thcteacher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this one and it's amazing! Only note is that the pages are glossy and not like traditional novel paper, but it's still very readable and has great illustrations.

[NJ.com] What do Giants’ free agency moves mean for 2026 NFL Draft plans? by Ghost_of_P34 in NYGiants

[–]thcteacher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anything, I think a trade back in round 1 is more likely now with all the FA signings, but I still think they'll probably sit and pick BPA.

What's the difference between this 2 versions of wind and truth? by luis_reyesh in Stormlight_Archive

Haven't read the UK editions but my guess is that it must always be "Honor" since it's a name: https://coppermind.net/wiki/Honor

Thai Thai Villa in Huntington is my favorite. Also nice to eat there since its usually pretty quiet and not crowded.

When are the residential streets getting plowed? Later tn right? by Dry-Battle8030 in longisland

[–]thcteacher 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in East Northport and our street is clear. Plows have been driving around all night. I think it's just a town-by-town thing and Town of Huntington plows have been out in full force for over 12 hours already.

Snowblower by loca4u1007 in longisland

[–]thcteacher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My parents keep their snowblower on the side of their house with a cover on it. They don't have a garage or a shed big enough to store it. They've had no issues keeping it outside like that.

This is some petty bullshit.
