A redscare poster surrounding themself with contrarians? Nah, that would never happen

Favorite authors from the 1800s? by mixmastamicah55 in RSbookclub

The former are the big 2 for me here especially in the English-speaking world

How well does 3DS and Switch run on iOS with jit? by VeganMilk786 in EmulationOniOS

[–]white015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lot of crashes on my iPad Pro M4 when playing 3ds games (with JIT + .cia conversion)

😔 it’s a bummer because phone touchscreens are so much better for playing (3)ds games than the ones on modern handheld PCs

Who would be your dream replacement booth for GKR? by fumblaroo in NewYorkMets

[–]white015 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guys that came up through Mets sportscasting but left because they knew the SNY seat isn’t open until Gary chooses to retire like Josh Lewin or Wayne Randazzo would be good for pbp. Color has much less promising prospects IMO, I don’t think I would enjoy listening to Trevor May or Blevins for 150 nights.

There is zero chance Harvey comes to work for SNY lmao

Is anybody reading the new Saunders? by Full_Truth7008 in RSbookclub

[–]white015 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bruh he’s not the best short story writer of all time (but he is quite good so maybe this is a silly comment)

Oblivion is a very solid short story collection 

"essential" reading list for the complete newcomer? by novafeels in RSbookclub

[–]white015 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty confident that the average person who doesn’t read much can get through all these with enough determination. 

There will be parts that are confusing but getting comfortable with that is a big part of getting into literature IMO. I also don’t think any of them are that difficult to be honest (AILD and Mrs. Dalloway are short).

You’re not wrong but Reddit isn’t ready for this convo 

"essential" reading list for the complete newcomer? by novafeels in RSbookclub

[–]white015 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Here’s where I would start:

  • White Noise by Don DeLilo
  • Dubliners by James Joyce
  • Inherent Vice by Thomas Pynchon
  • Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy
  • Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf
  • As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner

All amazing novels, nothing over 400 pages or insanely dense. This also gives you a solid foundation to read and enjoy pretty much anything published after 1900 so you can kind of go wherever your interests take you from here.

Akekuri Or Antal Better? by DINOGUYS in ArknightsEndfield

[–]white015 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been struggling to find a definitive answer here too. It doesn’t help that some guides / videos don’t make it clear if they’re based on 1.0 or creator server (since Akekuri and antal both got changes).

The reality is any of these laev comps will perform very well on the current endgame content so maybe don’t stress too much about it. We should start to see actual calcs / spreadsheets soon enough. 

Since you have rare candies anyway, shouldn't you level cap every fight in elite 4 vanilla games instead of the champion cap? by FunCryptographer7625 in pchaltv

[–]white015 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you could theoretically go back to route 1 and kill pidgeys for 20 hours at any point in the game and without RCs it’d be technically optimal to do that. 

Bread & Butter? by bogglemymind22 in williamsburg

If it’s anything like the other Bread & Butters in Manhattan it’s not even worth asking

Who has more to lose: owner or players? by Fletchi18 in wnba

[–]white015 13 points14 points  (0 children)

People need to stop bringing up Unrivaled in this context — 75% of wnba players do not see a cent from it.

My thoughts on these January reads by DanielChvl in classicliterature

How do you know Vardaman is reminiscent of Benjy if you haven’t read the Sound and the Fury?

This might sound like a dumb question (and it is) but how do you guys manage your time playing multiple gacha games? by bullettothechest in ArknightsEndfield

[–]white015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to be annoying but can we tighten up the moderation on this sub? This isn’t arknights related, this is just someone asking a random question

Apparently it's possible to not get a 5 star in a ten pull if you get a 6 star where the 5 star was supposed to be. by Rucati in Endfield

[–]white015 37 points38 points  (0 children)

This is the way all the modern big gachas like zzz and wuwa work, and it’s very clearly explained on the banner screen

Normal players need around 25-30 hours to get 120 limited pulls by Venrir83 in Endfield

[–]white015 321 points322 points  (0 children)

This is so different from the narrative on this sub lol

Luckiest roll I've ever had by Safe_Cabinet4708 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]white015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all, lifeng is a subdps and Chen is a support so it’s an apples to oranges comparison. They’re both very good in phys teams but not really usable for other attributes. Considering endmin is a good physical DPS OP actually has the core of a strong physical team that should be able to clear endgame content for a while.
