>>408748 Every investment would pay off with no risk You could manipulate it so that otherwise shitty companies become great by being associated with your decisions
>>408751 Basically it is like when me and sk tried to brainstorm how to use death note to make a war strategy that would result in complete victory and 0 losses
Maria
How do you counter a deathnote? Anonymous leaders?
Dnno, but what I mean is somehow using death note to make military strategists device a plan that results in 0 casualties as the rules state, you can't order anyone to do something that will result in additional deaths then just the person, so if you snap "make plan that will result in zero casualties" and order some general/etc to carry it out if they can do it, 0 casualties on all sides if they can't, new plan
>>408754 Basically the plan is You come up with plans, and when you have one you think is decent, you make someone order its execution with the death note If they can, there will be 0 deaths If they can't, they heart attack
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and technically, at some point you should succeed yes or run out of commanders
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>408756 and best part is, that if you just heart attack + action, they will finish the action and then die and if no action can be done, 40 secs an death you can really rapid fire it too
Maria
I would've just used it to threaten enemy commanders >surrender peacefully or your name goes in the notebook
For example, how long after an action does the death note count? What kind of butterfly effects are we looking at here?
Directly caused by the person? Can they set up a bomb somewhere which, to THEIR knowledge, is always empty, which you then fill with people at the invitation of someone unaware of the bomb? Can you use it as a mine detector?
It could actually be interesting to write some sort of fanfiction novel where you just push the rules to their fucking limit on the death note, because even Light didn't go far enough
Maria
>>408762 >mine detector Write down "x runs around (field with lots of mines) " and time it so no one else is in the area and I don't see why it wouldn't work
Like look Say you NEED to get into a compound, right? But, you can not risk tipping off any guards at all Nobody can know anyone ever entered, at least not until way later
Death Note someone into taking someone with them, running through the minefield, going in You can use a bunch of people Whichever one dies somewhere NOT 40 seconds from where they were when you wrote it, they are going to use a path you yourself can use
>>408762 Indeed could you basically set up a bombing strike by having so many people take part in it, that no one particularly is guilty of it and then say detonating said bomb yourself thus you just have the pawns make and set up bombs and deliver you the remotes and you yourself actually do the killing
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I think in terms of time bombs, they wouldn't work
In that case you just set up a complicated but simple enough chain of commands + additional people who would be "death due to action" but I doubt a clear "find a way through the mining field without being detected" would work unless you use the same method as the general thing just do it enough times untill someone pulls it
>>408774 At the moment L proved that Kira is someone and has limits he should have just dropped that and went all "Okay I ahve a god complex, NOW KNEEL" and kill like "top 10 troublesome world leaders and personas"
>>408776 Nonojnionoo now you made a powerful enemy just simply get on the good aside of the "good" world powers by killing their enemies and such but at the same time making sure they get the message >>408780 anno domini 2018 with surveillance device in your pocket? QUite easily
>>408776 This brings me to: Can the death note order someone to NOT do something which would prevent deaths, if they were going to otherwise?
Maria
>>408778 How are they gonna find me, all I'm doing is a heart attack every two years >>408778 >block phone camera with tape How are they gonna tell with my phone seriously They don't know the DN exists All they know is their presidents keep dying every 2 years
>>408782 But I mean Say this new president, as his first order, intends to just end all the war Just like that Can the death note order him to do something else and just hang out for a few weeks?
This is just the natural result of all super natural media The author never really goes deep into it, cause they're trying to tell a story with a gimmick, and a lot of the audience wants the gimmick with a story
>>408789 It is the problem of one author per story and setting only stuff where they have multiple people working on the lore and setting and shit over a long period of time can in the end come up with Just compare like Warhammer stuff to star wars or other short lived scifi or well star trek too
>>408791 Also without IP authors don't really make money out of their works though how in the end most of that goes to publishers etc is pure shittery, but gotta feed the artist
enforce copyright only when someone's trying to make money on it
Maria
It'd be easy for the DN author to just do a series of twilight zone esque one offs involving different people getting a notebook in parrallel universes
well fuck you cloudflare >>408795 >>408797 Just do an anthalogy or such where you let other people write with your IP many sols do that bloody oft so why not do it with some more serious stuff there wre some blackjack anthalogies like that and even a mushishi one
That is a weird idiom too cause up untill 20th century everyone was practically always "under the weather" or maybe it just refers to being miserable in the rain
there are some really weird sounds outside it sounds like some people playing the bongos but like, someone that actually knows how to play it and it's not coming from anyone's house and i can't figure out where the sound is coming from they're so loud that they have to be close but i can't find them
Well the end of the world isn't just boom only sign would be the so called rapture but that isn't per se mentioned in the revelation anyhow even after the horns blare, it will take a good many years untill the actual final end
Now I am bit bothered cause I doubt the revelation even mentioned gabriel being the one to blow the horns come to think of it, did the revelation name any archangels by name? I should reread it
Hey mostly Kirara and Maria maybe since Maria likes things I like for no real reason I got bored and compiled most of the music I used for my campaign and slapped it into a pastebin https://pastebin.com/TABSzaqs

>Shin Megami Tensei Imagin Why'd you have to reopen this wound
>>408898 It would be mildly surprising but it's important to keep an open mind.
Maria
I have a statue of Gabriel

Angels are good at music so if Gabriel showed up with drums I would only be surprised about a literal angel showing up. Talented instrument playing, however, would be expected.

Nah, it's not a waste. Improved Raven just means that colorless won't bother him and all colorless types are ranged. CC is about countering the things that would bother him. That said, 26/30 is on the border of maybe|maybe not
>>408924 Lucina should be coming back into style soon.
>>408927 Yes I did but you would not use distant counter er close counter on superfaye because superfaye's gimmick is having extremely high distant defense. You don't want her being hit my melee.
I dunno! Her stats are pretty okay. I mean, she's great if she's all you have. But compared to a lot of other sword users, she's quite lacking.
Her claim to fame is that she was amazing when the game started. That was because her stats are well rounded. Now? That doesn't matter as much. You can make an amazing sword unit that has 30 speed by inheriting skills. By doing that, you get a better unit, too, with better def/res and often higher atk.
Among the Falchion users, she doesn't really shine, either. Her low RES is bad.
Well, yes. If you merge even a bad character enough times, they will have stats similar to a better, unmerged character. A decent unit like Lucina is the same. Merge her enough times, and she'll be usable.
But even if her stats were the same as Mia's, Mia would be better.
>>409004 no it's in that middle ground of being infrequent enough that it's not seen as something bad enough to to a doctor for but still inconvenient for me
We're about 50-60 hours in and haven't even unlocked all the content yet, so it's definitely at least a dollar per hour.
Anno
Monster Hunter games have consistently had a lot of content packed in. They also tend to incorporate a bit of a grind, but the grind also coincides with you perfecting your hunting method against specific beasts, so it's still kind of engaging.
Maria
Monster Hunter easily gets into the triple digit hours
They're adding more monsters in as free DLC soon, too. I don't know why they weren't in on release, but they said they're adding some.
Anno
Oh that's surprising. >>409040 Honestly the reason they'll never tell you is that they were behind release schedule and had to cut some from the release before it went gold.
That's sort of what I figure, but I dunno. They're adding the Deviljho to one of the areas and I think some other things. The area they're adding it to is fucking PACKED with giant monsters already, like things bigger than Rathalos. It's so dangerous there even though it's the first area!
Anno
Well the Devil Joe is a bit special, at least if it's kept the same from previous generations. It tends to not be roaming around and will only show up by chance in the middle of a quest to give you an "oh shit" moment.
Anno
It's easy to get sleepy with music...

Anno
>>409050 It's doubly funny too, since he's, in a sense, not that scary at first look. In a game of creatures with weird appendages and dragons, he's just a t-rex.
And then it turns out he's a t-rex on rage steroids and he just wrecks your shit.
You can't see the future and you can't know what people are holding in their hearts.
Mido
eku was around like a week around and was super happy, or at least as happy as usual. a week ago* and honestly, i wouldn't have met any of you or came into the boards if it wasn't for them.
>>409109 The more you try not to think about it, the more it's going to intrude into your thoughts. The healthiest thing to do is to let yourself think about it but know that >>409117.
>>409121 Even when there are signs, there is not much another person can do.
The decision to stick around or not is one of the most personal issues a person can have. Trying to help someone is all you can do, but I've found that it's really something that comes down to the person themselves.
Mido
yeah i just need to accept her choice i guess. but it definitely hurts. when you don't know why. >>409125 this
>>409123 When there are signs, you can help by encouraging them to get help and supporting them. It may not seem like a lot, but it is. I don't think this is an appropriate time to argue about it, though.
I just didn't want to put in effort. I don't trust people when they say things are okay. Or better. Because I already know what that sounds like in my head. Can things continue to be okay or get better for the next 80 years it's more like hope than trust and I just go with my laziness even when i'm worried. i'm like this with my family. I hate it.
Mido
Yeah i am really used to not caring. or just caring half-assedly.
Well, as someone who constantly worries and someone who constantly imposes on people, let me tell you that it's impossible to force your way in and force people to be okay. You can try and sometimes you may end up helping, but if you're able to do that it means the person was open to it in the first place. Some people will let you in just a little but still keep you away from the problem area no matter how you are.
You can be there for support, but you can't actually force your way in and fix people.
And then you'll try and you'll try and you'll try and you'll eventually hit your wits end, or ast much as you can handle. And then when something bad happens, you'll think "I should have tried harder" even though at the time you were pretty much at maximum capacity when it comes to dealing with it youreslf.
It's just how these things are. I've gone through this with people from here, too.
It's not bullshit. I went through this with an internet person I guess it was like two or three years ago now, and I tried to help until I was pretty much mentally unstable over it to. too
I was a nervous wreck trying to help and worrying that I wasn't doing enough.
In the end I really wasn't able to accomplish anything and ended up in a place where I couldn't deal anymore and had to run away.
You can't help someone you didn't know needed help. actively
I know it feels like you should have done something. Even if you can see there's nothing you could have done, that feeling is still there. We all cope differently, though, so I think it's important to let your brain do what it needs to do right now.

I used to be one of those people who shit on him, and I just can't help but feel partially responsible. I was an edgy idiot. I patched things but never fully. Never explicitly. I owe but can't pay.

Samurai Lal'C !KW2DbpWwls
my dream is to make a coding environment in VR like the program executing is visualized as a few blokes walking around messing with books and boxes and shit one day everyone will understand what the fuck is happening in their CPUs
Anno
i would like a VR workspace for digital stuff like text editing and spreadsheets
Samurai Lal'C !KW2DbpWwls
>>409201 so rather than proof of work, proof of moe i seeeeee
but that means we would have to cr eate a moe oracle
is that going to be a pane l of people judging images or a machine
Anno
>>409204 a panel of people who select candidates of moe quality, then a machine that compares the likeness of the work to the original to a certain value it can be pretty forgiving at first is the proof of work something that has to increase over time or is that just an arbitrary thing that has been done historically
Anno
>>409202 Like this? http://store.steampowered.com/app/240440/Quadrilateral_Cowboy/
Samurai Lal'C !KW2DbpWwls
you know what it should never be a machine it should always be a panel of connoisseurs of moe
generating moe images is a value in and of itself we could make a currency about this
Anno
>>409207 doesn't that sully the concept of a decentralized ledger to have persons verify proof of work
Anno
Mad scientists in action.
Samurai Lal'C !KW2DbpWwls
>>409208 if the person selection is truly random then.. it would be cool but that's hard to accomplish...
Anno
if the panel just puts the standards in place, then the machine determines the degree to which standards have been met, that seems fine
Samurai Lal'C !KW2DbpWwls
i feel like wait if there is a machine learning algorithm and it is sufficently smart then it'll eventually learn the features that constitute a moe image but there needs to be competition between different instances of the algorithm like a human panel judges which of the AI contestants submits the most moe image
and the AIs that win the contests get to pass on their genes to the next round of the competition
Anno
i'd like to see the images be official somewhere would they be stamped on the ledger would we have physical representation coins with the moegirls on them or moeguys if it's necessary
Samurai Lal'C !KW2DbpWwls
oh god let me think about this okay if they're on a ledger then they have to get replicated to a whole bunch of computers on the internet or maybe only a few computers, if sharding but still how do we incentivize randos to host hard drives of anime pix
gotta get me some milk for my kratom and some beverages because i get so thirsty ive been drinkin a lot of pepsi lately which is strange for me but it's okay

i dunno about san fran, i lived in berkeley but yeah there was a really good one Zabu Zabu in berkeley i've been craving a long time it's technically a shabu shabu place not a ramen place though a little higher end than a simple ramen shop but it's a great hot pot place i would like to have a /moe/ hot pot dinner there

Why do I sometimes forget you can cook? Also...why a hotpot? /moe/s fighting over the meat in it would bring about only madness!
Anno
that's what's nice about that place is it's all you can eat well sorta you pick out all the ingredients you'd like and the meats, and they've got people regularly go around with big plates of veggies and mushrooms and meats and stuff and you can always just refresh your pot

FormerRei@mobile
On vinyl I have the soundtrack to Caddyshack and 2001: A Space Odyssey and True Stories. And maybe one other thing somewhere.
FormerRei@mobile
True Stories's soundtrack is probably Talking Heads's worst album. But it has the song Radiohead on it. So without it, Radiohead would have had a different name. Like Thom Yorke and the Chucklefucks.
what's worse that album or the entire discog of Radiohead
FormerRei@mobile
Ooh That's a hard question. Cause it's not a bad album. Its just Talking Heads's worst album, but they're a really good band. Also the soundtrack is also called True Stories.
