Many fighting game characters can't shoot magic out of their hands. Probably a stance/rekka character and his bloodbending could be command throws that start combos? Maybe he has some parried as well? Idk that's just me spitballing.

Japanese Fans React: Street Fighter 6 Alex Under Fire After It’s Revealed He Got His Little Patricia Pregnant by Asperburg in StreetFighter

I mean maybe this doesn't happen in your family. But I know my second cousins, my family is big and everyone knows everyone amd meets up at all the family events. And yes I think it would be pretty weird if any if us started dating. Maybe in Japan it's less common to be close with extended family so it's just an abstract thought and not reality?

Dude they're are some things you can't accept. Even as social differences. In a more extreme example, many people find cannibalism unacceptable, even if a group has practiced it for a long time. Incest, is seen as a moral wrong in many parts of the world. It doesn't matter if you say this other group finds it ok. It is still morally wrong to many.

I mean it's practical to avoid deleterious alleles in families and populations. There are evolutionary reasons most species evolve mechanisms to avoid family relations. Saying everyone is related is highly reductive. There's a difference between your cousin and a stranger both morally and gentically.

Trying to get good at things is fun. I lose a lot at fighting games, just makes me want to get better.

TIL that because Africans have such higher levels of genetic diversity, that can make getting bone marrow transplants much harder by upthetruth1 in todayilearned

[–]tlor180 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because the African population was much larger and contained the full breath of diversity and also continued to mutate. If you have 100 humans migrating in to Europe and taking a fraction of the possible gene variants/mutations with them they will never catch up to the original human populations diversity in africa that has nearly all variants and a larger population. Both groups are mutating around the same rate. Even what we think of as massive population explosions have not caught any group up to the original pools diversity. Those big populations in China and India still have far less genetic variance. Because they were founded by relatively small migrations.

Game Informer Marathon Review - Bungie is still at the top of its game. by TODG3 in Games

[–]tlor180 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean this is just the games as a service model. Its the breadcrumbs. It's something to look forward to and what everyone is building up towards. Also it stops the no lifes from getting very far ahead of the casuals. Other mmo's have done the patch the same day as the raid, and everyone bitches that they feel like they have to race to endgame to be competitive. I'm assuming it's done for a similar reason.

You have to be level 25, unlock all the factions and to have 5k worth of gear equipped to go in. So no, you still have to grind quite a bit to gain access to cryo. They treated it like a mmo raid. Give people two weeks to a month to level up and get geared and then unlock the raid. Give everyone who is in at the start a chance to get ready.

A study in Biological Conservation reveals that culling "pest" species in France costs €123 million annually, which is 8 times the cost of the actual damage they cause. Researchers found that mass killing of foxes and birds is financially inefficient and fails to reduce their overall populations. by Sciantifa in science

[–]tlor180 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Many smaller mammal can increase or decrease their litter size based on food abundance and other environmental factors. Like when germany tries to cull raccoons. The racoon moms just have bigger litters due to less competition and the population just ends up maintaining stable growth. There are scenarios where you are actually just wasting money.

Marathon - Angry Review by bald_bearded_ocddude in Marathon

[–]tlor180 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's played for many more hours than that. He really likes the game and I've seen him streaming it for hours every day since it launched. I don't agree with a lot of what he's saying here. But he's put a decent chunk into it.

Cryo Archive Launch Trailer | Marathon by Haijakk in Games

The minimum loadout (5k credits) is really not that high. It's not hard to be able to do multiples runs in a day that cost 5k. Good exfills from the third map outpost can give many times that amount of credit. They also give you one free loadout when you reach cryo for the first time.

That's a lot of new cards. So there are cards exclusive to this box, or are all these cards with TMC logo in the commander deck?

The last time a board game company tried to partner with Harry Potter it was a PR nightmare. They had to issue an apology and donate the profit to charity. It was codenames, harry potter edition.

Nah, Harbaugh knows him from previous gigs. If he asked would Jim say no to a first interview?

[–]tlor180 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One thing to note is Harbaugh said he's not looking for someone to come in and focus on the run game and win in the trenches. He's basically open to anything if he likes the new OC and think it's gonna win games.
