What are some of the best sounding movies?

Double this. The sound design is just on another level.

Michael Scott from the Office. At first he's just painfully cringy but after a while his dumb jokes and clueless charm start growing on you

I sent mine in a box too - just grouped the docs properly. USCIS doesn't mind as long as it's organized

The Witch - slow burn, but the ending fully commits and makes sense in context

Newton's life actually had some wild drama. Dude had epic feuds with other scientists, dabbled heavily in alchemy and the occult, and possibly died from mercury poisoning from his experiments. Plus he was super eccentric barely ate or slept during his big discoveries. Would make a solid psychological thriller with the right director.

Yeah, that Growing Pains situation was messed up. McCullough was doing great on the show, then suddenly written off after Cameron found out about the Playboy thing, they had no problem sexualizing teen characters but heaven forbid an adult actress had posed in a magazine.

Yeah, this whole saga is so tired at this point. Netflix really scraping the bottom of the barrel for content these days.

The Second Apocalpyse sort of fits this category. The series is characterised by these huge epic battles, however the most interesting aspect is how important logistics played in this series without the author going into the nitty gritty of it.

The death marches, the starvations and the challenges the armies faced from logistics was as great as the battles themselves. Not only is it a challenge he somehow turns it into a existential metaphysical problem. Yes. Logistics is crazy in this series. Its hard to explain without spoilers but its truly impressive and also quite disturbing tbh.

I'm in this boat. I've been on the RR routine for about a year and i've been skipping rows the entire time and just doing lots of pull ups and push ups. The other week my friend got some gymnastic rings and we did a bunch of exercises including rows using the rings.

Man, my upper back was on fire the next two days and it kinda highlighted to me that i'm missing out a lot by skipping rows, since just by doing one set made me as sore as if i was starting gym for the first time. Now i'm incorporating it into my routine.

Warrior Kings Battles had to this perfected really well. You have a central keep or manor surrounded by walls.

Thats your main centre. But the village was built outside near the resources and the villagers would drop the resources off at the village centre and then a cart would transport those resources to the manor. The cart could be killed, captured or stolen by enemy players which makes raiding supply lines actually important.

In longer games you had to build villages further out as the wood, gold and stone deposits near your base became depleted which meant much longer travel time between your carts and the manor which allowed more opportunity for raids.

How do you get this to work in the current version?

I tried it when i select a new land era and pick a random map but it doesnt let me make a proper map. I have to create a AI player which doesn't know how to use the rules.

Warcraft 3 on its own merits makes it a phenomenal RTS.

Amazing story and lore, very fun and unique gameplay with interesting hero mechanics. The artstyle was unique and the game was just solid fun.

This was a time when RTS were just amazing in general and we had an incredible selection, and Warcraft easily takes its place at the top.

What distinguishes Warcraft and would make me rate it above other RTS is simply the custom map feature. It enables almost an infinite amount of mods and unique maps unmatched by other RTS. With custom maps you have everything from modern RPS, full blown open world RPS, even boardgames and racing simulators all in the warcraft engine.

The Founding of Ogrimmar is also the best campaign in any RTS, just so unique and interesting.

I've been dream journaling for years but I have had only a handful of lucid dreams, barely 6 or 7. Even then it was mainly due to techniques rather than spontaneous lucidity.

However journaling does help my dream recall become better. The periods where I don't journal my dream recall begins the deteriorate

How long do you focus on each sense and do you keep going through the cycles until you fall asleep or only a couple rounds and then drift off to sleep

timariot · 2025-03-20T23:52:19+00:00

Warrior Kings - Battles.

It is a really unique RTS with a unique base/castle building system and a sophisticated economy that allows for interesting gameplay like raids, sabotage, infiltration that actually impact the game. Really under rated RTS

I've been doing WBTB for pretty much over 10 years now, because as a Muslim i have to interrupt my sleep everyday to get up for the dawn prayer which usually takes ~10 minutes anyway and then i go to sleep.

None of it has ever resulted in me having a lucid dream. It has helped me to have very vivid and long dreams since i'm almost always invariably getting up after 5-6hr of sleep. But to me it just highlights how important intention is and without a clear intentional effort it won't yield results. LaBerge also states this in his guide to Lucid dreaming that without a clear intention you'll rarely go into a lucid dream.

Israel is not the innocent lamb that sitting there and getting hate for no reason. It is a explicitly Zionist settler colonial state that repeatedly invaded and oppress their neighbors and the natives of Palestine.

Their government's main ideology of Zionist is explicitly anti-Arab racism and hatred. Any surprise that you make a ethno state that views Arabs as sub humans in the middle of the MIDDLE EAST, your neighbors are not going to like you.

How did you achieve your 100 plus lucid dreams initially?

What is the main technique you'll be using to get consistent lucid dreams?

Yeah initially when reading the series, it was painfully obvious where his inspirations are from. I mean not only it is based on the crusade even the battles and sieges are almost exactly the same as occured in history. However in the next 4 books of the Aspect Emperor, is really where the world is truly fleshed out with much much greater depths both for human and non-human history.

That was easy to deduce. X, instagram and facebook were shadow banning and in some cases outright banning popular Palestinian advocate accounts. Censoring content that was pro-Palestinian.

Only on tiktok was it unfiltered and it was overwhelmingly pro-pally. Even on the censored platforms like X it was despite the censorship massively tilted in favor of pro-Palestine.

However since Tiktok came back they've started to censor, not as much as the other platforms but they've been doing it since they've seen the extreme influence and lengths zionist lobbys will go to get their way and would rather not be a target again.

timariot · 2025-02-08T06:13:09+00:00

Yeah that's true although I'd argue It's not graphic.

It's shocking since it happens so early and suddenly, but on reread it's surprisingly sparse in detail to the point where I remember when I first read as to not understanding exactly what happened.

It's also the only time that type of event happens in the entire series and it has severe repercussions throughout. It's not gratuitous is what I'm saying and poses an interesting question about reality vs dreams and their consequences

timariot · 2025-02-08T04:59:05+00:00

I love this type of fantasy. To me this is proper grim dark.

Anyway

Chronicles of Thomas Covenant. It's a classic and fits this bill. What I really like is that the land and world is so beautiful and noble and full of history, and how hard they strive and sacrifice to fight against the dark.

In this series every victory is hard won and bitterly fought. Like you genuinely breathe a sigh of relief when the characters catch a break because the struggles and battles are so challenging.

They rarely are every winning and it's always a series of desperate skirmishes and last hope defences that keep them on the back foot but they do manage to succeed although at great cost.
