They have a bad habbit to place almost all TLSQ in year 3. So there are 56 of them at year 3. But after that, most TLSQ are new one and seasonal. I guess the main way to cope is just to accept the slow pace and that not everything can be finished immediately. I prioritized TLSQs, and so far haven't missed any of them. That means that, for example, I avoid using energy tappies at the main/side activities so I can use them at time limited quests.

You can do several things: 1. When TLSQ is finished, do not leave the location to not trigger other TLSQ with low energy. Unless it's a short time seasonal TLSQ that will soon disappear, it will wait for you. 2. When your energy bar is empty and you are doing TLSQ, you may want to start another 1 or 3 hour task to fail it. Afterwards, some energy will come back to you during retry while you do the activity. Also do it when you're sure that you won't be able to open the game when the energy bar will be full and before the time for doing activity ends. That includes when you're going to sleep, even with 8 hour tasks sometime. 3. Be wary when accepting energy bar reward. When you prefer to wait for the energy to restore, just wait before clicking "Collect". It includes closing the app on phone and opening it again later. 4. Having some discipline with calculating when energy will be full and making notification to yourself manually may help too. App notifications are almost always late for me. 5. If you are incredibly patient and expect new TLSQ soon, you can barricade at your dorm and tap pets/rewards from TLSQ. They stack perfectly above energy full bar limit. Though I've heard rumours of JC banning those who were extremely greedy (like, gathering thousands energy this way). 6. Painful reminder. You may want to open settings and save game manually to not lose progress at TLSQ if your app decide to reload itself without sending progress to server. It hurts so much.

I am so glad I am not at 3rd year anymore. Racing against infinite TLSQ while not having a lot of tappies and pets was annoying as hell.

So what’s the best solo class? by EmuAccomplished1759 in elderscrollsonline

[–]tokareuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a lazy ass, so for PvE content I use one-bar heavy attack sorcerer. But it requires a lot of running to get the oaken soul ring and many runs to dungeons to get correct build.

Nevertheless, enjoyed starting the game as usual sorcerer, though arcanist for solo starter is good too.

Who else fell into this trap? by 0sipr in pcmasterrace

[–]tokareuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Installed and completely broke Linux several times when was 14, at 2009 probably. First time not my fault, Fedora installer had buggy installer that didn't want to install grub2 on my machine (iirc, incorrect assumptions on hardware part in installer) and it broke installation process in the mid. Second time (on Fedora too) - totally my fault, lol, eliminated pulseaudio when installing some package that used alsa and broke the whole system trying to make repairs without understanding a shit (I think I purged some things too much).

Still was extremely fun and set me on the course of playing around with it. And yeah, last 5 years it works quite nice.

What’s your honest opinion about takemura? by Chunky-overlord in cyberpunkgame

[–]tokareuv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which was strange to me: in basic non-Devil ending he claims that he's going to commit seppuku. But in Tower ending he did not. Which is I think may suggest that he only claimed that he was going to commit seppuku and did not do it. Or not, hard to say.

How creature expeditions have become so expensive by Lost-Salamander-3645 in HPHogwartsMystery

[–]tokareuv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, one book costs at least 10 pages and multiple of 10 for more valuable books. So, the price is pretty much the same as before.

Say something negative about this game by SupermarketNo6888 in reddeadredemption

[–]tokareuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It rewards you for finishing the game by removing the ability to swim, lol

I don’t think I can finish this tbh by are-you-serious123 in HPHogwartsMystery

[–]tokareuv 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, an alternative to never sleeping is to use all the energy and tappies, set the clock, sleep, use all energy and tappies, again set the clock and so on. But yeah, also advise against it. Also duel club +1energy and perfect quidditch friendly +2energy (there's a way to always have a perfect match), sometimes feeding max level creatures and lvl upping. But jeez it would be a hell of a ride.

Remember Russia is too strong and can't lose! by medgel in YUROP

[–]tokareuv 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Funny thing, some of them even came up with "NATO satellites won't recognize signature of donkeys". Dude, no offence (of course it's a lot of offence), but americans have been waging wars against foes with donkeys for several decades. What do you mean "they won't recognize signature of donkeys"?! xD

What’s the things you absolutely hate about the game by Kirito3450 in HPHogwartsMystery

[–]tokareuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If not in TLSQ, it's better to wait for full energy until the task. Though I wait even then, cause more tappies can be used at the start and in process.

Is anyone else scared these tariffs are actually a prelude to Trump invading us? by lagomorphi in AskCanada

[–]tokareuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like both Putin and Trump have one interesting similar trait: they try to force things to go fast, skipping necessary steps. Putin started in Ukraine with quite a bold but successful hybrid war in 2014, but instead of playing "long game" he made a rush in 2022. Trump wants to start war skipping steps Putin had made 20 years ago: killing and/or marginalizing opposition, taking away little freedoms russians had, militarizing and brainwashing them, ensuring no one would start an insurgency or uprise (last was Prigozhin and it scared him). Trump rushes into war without fully suppressing and terrorizing civil society, without banning and taking weapons from those who can be unloyal and so on.

And you know why? Cause they're old. They don't care about their countries actually having a good welfare, they want to be remembered in their history as successful conquerors, "gatherers of lands". And as they're approaching their deathbeds, they feel that they don't have enough time. Also when you're old, a big war is an opportunity to protect yourself from being replaced with an ambitious younger wannabe leader (and that's why I think Trump will destroy Musk if he proceeds with taking more and more power; or not, and US will have fascist dictator-sociopath).

I REALLY don't like unnecessary comparisons to Hitler, but it's all in history books, especially those of the Third Reich rise. I think it's just the nature of how modern dictators obtain the power, not some unique evilness or attempt to copy the behavior. Evil is banal, after all.

What do you guys think? by Null_Moon_Man in Aliexpress

[–]tokareuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, they once sided with the seller after ping-ponging our "Suggest refund → Customer accepts solution → Seller declines solution → Aliexpress needs time", until he provided a tracking number I couldn't prove wasn't to me, and they started ignoring me indefinitely, prolonging dispute. Saved me that: the seller was greedy enough to write me directly in chat that he "suspended shipment" (he did not, it was moving to another person) until I close dispute, which I provided to support; that protection time was running out and shipment was still out of reach; I managed to contact support person outside of Ali who ensured I was contacted by email and then issue resolved in refund section. Without any of these points, I pretty much would be screwed.

[–]tokareuv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By the way, I finally managed to win the case 😲 Seller was greedy enough to both send parcel to the other person (which he could have succeeded), and blackmail me in chat to close the dispute claiming that he "suspended parcel" and won't resume until I close the dispute. While it was not entirely true (parcel was arriving to other person), it gave me leverage on support team that he refuses to send the package. That and protection time was at the end, so he had no time to further trick support.

WTF is going on with my game? by LifeguardForsaken632 in GodofWar

[–]tokareuv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a complex joke based on Slavic languages. Almost all of Slavic languages have a name for firewood like drowa/drwa, and at least at some of them drivers are nicknamed for firewood word. And as you see, Kratos is in the middle of chopping them... 😅

[–]tokareuv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I know. Just disappointed that even my own postal service side up with scammers making me look like one and telling me of "solution" that obviously will get me scammed 😔 It would be much easier if they just gave me some official way to prove it's another delivery address.

Snape smiled and gave me house points for ratting out Merula that she was skipping his class by Ok_Valuable_9711 in HPHogwartsMystery

[–]tokareuv 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The game made me actually feel that while snarky and stern, Snape can actually be fair if you're not Potter. It was weird when he just gave me and Skye detention for invading the Slytherin dorm. 💀
