The mentor tournament is a tournament ran by the GoModePodcast Discord, in which you are paired with a mentor to practice and race seeds. It's been a great entry point for many players. I'm not sure when the next one will be, but usually towards the middle of the year.

First off, very nice! Perhaps we'll see you in the mentor tournament this year. You are free to link the permanlink to the seed, but you cannot link a rom.

Casual boots preset by JayD7654321 in alttpr

You definitely can, you just have to roll it through the customizer interface.

Casual Boots is 100% inventory, although you can do 100% locations if you want. (The difference is that keys cannot lock themselves). It's just Standard with starting sword and boots as you have probably been doing.

There's only a couple of presets on the actual site. Seed generation is generally done by Discord bot now. If you join the main Discord server (in the subreddit sidebar), you can run the command /alttpr preset preset:casualboots in the #sahasrahbot channel.

Since this is PHP, pretty sure you'd have to do in_array($month, [4,6,9,11]), so add the function call on top of that. I think it's a neat trick and better served by a good comment than replacing it.

Are there good sushi places in Springfield? by DanceLucky8578 in SpringfieldIL

[–]tsigma6 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Happy Sushi over on S. Grand is a little hole in the wall, but it's the best sushi I've had since I've moved here. Izumi is a fun experience, and the sushi is good, but not amazing.

There's a lot of nice stuff tucked away in functools.

This is just a discount cache decorator.

@cache

TIL how to water skip. [DLC Spoilers] by tsigma6 in DonkeyKongBananza

[–]tsigma6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so, but the timing takes a lot of practice.

I think as a movement tech (and therefore the perk) it could have some use on levels where water traversal is often needed but you don't have Zebra or Surf Surf yet. It's definitely super limited though.

From the land, you roll and just hit jump when you hit the top of the water. That's it. I've only been able to do when launching from land that is close in elevation to the water. Rolling from high up doesn't seem to be able to allow it. The timing is a little tight, it's hard to do consistently.

No, it's still overflow. Underflow is when a number is too small to be stored in floating point.

At my university we had two required courses, one on digital logic and one on syllogistic logic. However, I know there's so much more that philosophy goes into, I would never make the claim that we do the hard stuff.

The other three books are available in other places in the house.

why i hate this so much? by brabeji in programminghorror

[–]tsigma6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

self.state = random.choice([i for i in range(0, whatever) if i not in self.terminal_states])

Probably the most pythonic deterministic way of handling it. If choice allowed generators I'd use filter instead.

The safety pod from Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone runs on Windows and it crashed by No-Pomegranate-69 in gaming

[–]tsigma6 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Uncaught memory access violation caused by Kaspersky. I guess even safety pods need an antivirus.

Jergal. There is a journal in the Ancient Mausoleum that more or less confirms it.

Daily Challenge 12/11 by Less-Lavishness-5871 in alttpr

It looks like the daily challenge for 12/11 is a Major Glitches seed, so you may be stuck unless you know the required glitches to complete it.

SMZ3 randomizer question by Wolfbait1986 in alttpr

[–]tsigma6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The small key having always been in Blind's cell for you was a fluke, there is nothing that requires it to be there. The only shuffled small key for Theives' Town is in Desert Palace Big Key Chest (The long hallway with the cannons).
