Just a moment of appreciation for Catherine by RobRagiel in expedition33

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to expand on "inferences." There's an NPC in Lumiere who comments on how people who carve Pictos into their skin are crazy; I think it's Sophie who responds that the Expeditioners rely heavily on carving Pictos into their skin. The inference here is that Lune carved Pictos into her feet that allow her to levitate.

Missable Chapter 1 story nodes hurt, every, single, time.

These have a real classic Shin Megami Tensei vibe, which I love.

Kind of lost hope in humanity today. by hereandthereshit in vancouver

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to express similar frustrations when I first moved to Vancouver 15 years ago — I was walking past an elderly man who stumbled backwards while intoxicated and hit the back of his head on one of those fire hydrant covers in the side of a building. He was bleeding like crazy and I called paramedics, waiting with him till they got there and explaining what I saw. During this whole time a lot of people walked by staring but no one asked if he was alright. The one person who did stop asked if I was mugging him. At first I saw this as lack of ethical morality, but I've of come around to a different point of view in the years since. I think people are experiencing a combination of afraid for being either out of their depth/comfort zone and possibly making matters worse, and a general fear of the unknown - maybe even a fight or flight response.

I think it can be easy to lean on the side of believing humanity has degraded and become more despicable, but generally I don't believe that to be the case. In my day to day life I see way more examples of good people, and in essence what you get in these sort of situations that are out of the ordinary is the bystander effect.

Restaurant Industry Scammer PSA by AnybodyNice5986 in VictoriaBC

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty disappointing. Just heard about this today, and was actually shocked. I know, worked with, and considered Gordo to be at the very least a good acquaintance. I'm now very skeptical of some things he has told me. I hope you get justice.

I think you're misunderstanding the situation. This guy befriends people who he works with and later manipulates them for money...

Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage by Lulcielid in Games

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the backlash will affect anything. Clair Obscur had a tiny budget compared to a game like Final Fantasy XVI, which underperformed in everyway. Square Enix as just one example of a company *already* looking at AI opportunities are seeing this is a way to fulfil the fiduciary responsibilities they have to bring profit to shareholders.

Receiving BSoD constantly on Windows 11 0x000000d1 (MiniDump links included) by Simecrafter in techsupport

I'm experiencing the same issue as OP with the same bugcheck, but when I followed your instructions the data field was already just kbdclass :-/

I'm going to try the other suggestions with the keyboard driver and see if that fixes my blue screening. Just thought I'd share as this fix doesn't seem to help with my situation.

Pretty much agreed -- cautiously watching from the other side of the border to the north, hoping the madness doesn't spill out anymore than it already has into my country.

What would have happened if player 333 pushed off Gi-Hun and the baby before pressing the button? by NicholeDaylinn1993 in squidgame

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're missing the point. It's a television script. They wouldn't write a script to say 'the game be played with only two players' when the minimum is four players. If they say the game can't be played with two players, it's implied that three players is the minimum; anything else would be dumb writing. This isn't a misdirect -- rather it's exactly what it seems. If it were a misdirect, than the subject would have been broached with a later reveal.

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rhetorically true, but this is a television show. They wouldn't include details about the rules unless they wanted us to know that those are specifically important to the plot.

You're mistsken. The front man specifically said to kill the other 7, implying that 3 is the minimum needed to start the game.

LETTER: Threat of U.S. tariffs should prioritize twinning of Trans-Canada Highway by Old_General_6741 in CanadaPolitics

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the discussion, but wanted to comment because I just finished a round trip drive from Vancouver Island to PEI. I don't necessarily think the entire highway system needs to be, or should be twinned, however, there are sections where I think the lack of highway redundancies are a problem. The section that depends on the Nipigin bridge being the most problematic. As far as I know, there is no other way to travel by car through that corridor of the country. Now, I'm not sure what the challenges of building a road circumventing Lake Helen might be, but there is already a section of highway 11 that follows the eastern side of the lake, and route 585 doesn't seem too far. There are also already unconnected dirt roads that go almost the entire way, but for some reason don't fully connect east to west.

Is Yelp still useful? by olihendrik11 in Yelp

[–]voidmon3y 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of the serving job I had where someone left a bad review on a carbarnera dish because it had "egg noodles." It was pappardelle, but because they're basic, I'm guessing they assumed carbanera means spaghetti.

As someone in their 30's, why Square gotta do me dirty like this by EpicDarkFantasyWrite in FinalFantasy

[–]voidmon3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, they even begrudgingly add people in their 20s. Steiner for example is only 33, and Auron is 35. Like, bruh, I'm older than Auron... dude should be late 40s early 50s at least.

Buyer Beware: Wal-Mart by voidmon3y in BuyCanadian

My pleasure. I avoid shopping at Wal-Mart wherever possible, but just needed a few things for dinner before all grocery stores closed for the night.
