>make a background for your character >few weeks later >hey tn, you notice that your background is more detailed than the campaign I am running? well not those words but...
well i mean there wasn't a whole lot of thought put into the creation of the setting it was literally drunken round robin ideas so if you put any actual effort into it i'm sure it would be much more detailed
>>593228 my guy has like 3 or 4 buffs i forget i didn't even use the daily that gives either 1 target 2d8 or 3 targets 1d8 bonus damage because i thought there would be more combat in that forest i took these skills planning to use them all on myself to become swole but i haven't felt like using them all in one fight haha
but rpgs can eb quite fun on the randomness of it I had a quite big pre-planned character script for the session where pan dueled gandora but then... well not only was there some kidnapping, but also the whole event I planned formeself just was "uh nothing happened"
Marsh-chan
Help My MMO is making me interact with other players
Anway, TN you'll have to excuse my poor planning skills. stuff happened. Things occured I can now weild a dragon scimitar in osrs. that 30 page essay was a cunt to write.
But November is my free month between classes and I want to do some travel so if I do head down south I'll give you as much notice as I can as soon as I know what's happening.
>>593273 >i can now wield a dragon scimitar in osrs hold up like two days ago you were slaying goblins you're telling me you completed monkey madness from slaying fuckin goblins that fast
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
so I might not want extra people in my place atm
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and might not have time and money to hang out at the capital
>>593278 hey look that's fine. no pressure. If nothing else we can just meet up and grab a beer. something like that. >>593277 that ** People kept asking me why such a high level player kept killing goblins and nothing else. Why I wasn't doing better quests. It doesn't matter to me. I just want to slay goblins.
>>593283 ds summoning is basically summoning Lars into a world where Jack killed 10 nazies in ww2 instead of Lars killing 10 nazies in ww2 because in Jack's world Lars never existed so Jack did Lars' job
>>593286 basically yeah and sometimes Jack only killed like 4 nazis and skipped the rest because he doesn't need their souls tbh >>593285 i bet solaire would hate bloodborne there's no fuckin sun
On a completely different note HOW HARD would Ed actually hit with his metal arm? like that thing weights about 2-5x what a normal arm does and most likely has WAY more power than a normal arm does too
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593292 When I joined mooo I propably was at top list of "most anime watched" but now...
also the loot fountain gets me high >>593309 i never managed to get to infernal in the original game i got bored in the third playthrough of the story i think i like the ability to switch the difficulty whenever much more but i think it worked with the successive difficulty playthroughs in the previous games
>>593311 post AH diablo is SO much better it is flexible fun and not even that grindy
though I just have so BAD rolls on my main wizard I JUST RECENTLY got a lvl 70 tal rasha amulet to replace my lvl 60 tal rasha amulet FROM DAYS WHEN lvl 60 WAS MAX
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and that is like 50 levels of GRAND RIFTS
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and all other gamplay
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but man my wizard >completely reliant on tal rasha >65% or something crit chance >about 40% meteor dmg
Anno
>>593314 wew i just myself replaced my level 60 crafted set bracers because they had a godly roll and i got almost the same roll on some level 70 random bracers
>>593318 My wizard carries items that no longer exist they have been replaced by different versions
like the "create killzone" ring I have one of those of the OLD model but I have NEVER DROPPED a better ring I think I have 2 or 3 items that are essentially legacy items that I just refuse to replace cause I never get a better one
Anno
oh shit do you have leech
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and by better one, I actually mean OBJECTIVELY better not just replacing int or something but even giving a new effect
I mean I have "hautns EVERYONE" when opens a chest or "haunts everyone occasionally" as basic shit
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
or "all items are indestructible" and "pylons spawn champions"
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
the pylon spawn is DAMN double edged sword in greater rifts it can easily lose you minutes or gain you minutes
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>surrounded by way too many enemies I can't crowd control to super CRIT with my tal rasha >Oh a pylon >oh wait if I take it I spawn a champion+mooks surrounding me
or >oh a pylon >I can easily kill the champion witht he buff and gain 1-2 minutes to the timer
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Oh yeah janissar, how does exactly "life per hit" work?
Anno
>>593322 the second one they turned into a level 70 legendary special effect it's still pretty cool people use it when getting carried in grifts >>593325 you heal a fixed amount of HP for every attack that strikes any enemy aoe attacks can heal multiple times the amount >>593328 damage over time effects only give you one health restore, when they initially strike channeled spells heal you every 2 seconds for each enemy hit
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
whass your account code less add eachothe for shits and giggles
>>593326 if that is true, why don't I fucking get hit by SHIT TONS when using blizzard or black hole or hitting 20 enemies, 1,60 attacks per second or MORE with arcane torrent?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Lakesly#2491
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
61% crit for 418% dmg should be more
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
btw... WHY HAVN'T THEY MADE BETTER GEMS 280 GAP? CAP
why not just make better gems every big patch?
Anno
>>593329 sent ;) my account is tied to my dad's bnet, so he's usually on it playing WoW though
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
so I guess contact on moo etc before actually contacting
>>593335 that's a nice looking outfit i am currently not transmogged into shit just trying desperately to get two specific legendaries to make my build good in t13/grift 60+
but seriously why aren't you using blood rune corpse explosion?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>15B hit on enemy on it hitting my golem >my THORNS RIVALS my wizard
Anno
oh motherfucker this game is region locked >>593345 rathma 6 set bonus doesn't work on corpse explosion i was using it until I finished the 6 set then switched some skills to better benefit skelly mage >>593347 yeah i could only see you in my friends list when i was on the EU server and character data doesnt transfer regions
>>593350 1000% bonus dmg to all minions for each skelly mage you have active up to 4 stacks with this set but i need to get a good roll on the weap >>593354 i really want to try it out sounds awesome still need 2 more key legendaries to make skelly mage as good as it can be, there's some hands that give 55% increased minion attack speed and a ring that doubles up every mage summon and increases duration by 4 seconds >>593355 hmm i wonder i know there is a set th at gives you bonus dmg for every ancient legendary you are equipping including the set itself so you can get up to 1300% bonus dmg from all ancient legendary items mixed and matched maybe some combination is good at thorns
>>593352 Oh that one i was thinking of trying it but seriously
I think if there is a set that doubles down on the Minion THorns I will do that
cuase fucking mINION THORNS
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593352 I stumbled on minion thorns purely on accident and was just "man this is BROKEN" "your skeletons have INFINITE HP" "and they can REFLECT BILLION TIMES BILLION DMG THAT CRITS to enemies?"
>>593361 yeah she's hot but uh does she sound really fucking bored all the time like male necro?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
the female voice doubles down on the EDGY it isl ike CRAWLING IN MY SKIN but with original Nightwish singer doing lyrics and iti s heavy metal cover
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Okay that was easy killing malthael the clouds didn't ONE SHOT ME
I hate doing malthael on my wizard
I always have 3 clouds spawn on my spot when he does 2nd stage cinematic
Anno
>>593363 haha th e male necro just sounds like a grumpy old man he never sounds interested or surprised he's just grumbly
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I dunno does the femnecro have much more emotion to it but she isn't grumy just chuuni
All I got from her is "CHUUNI AND EDGY" my favourite thing is the taunt where she goes "THE DARKNESS IN ME IS MUCH MORE THAN DARKNESS IN YOU" or something
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it is so fucking anime
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
hmm 3-10B mean damage with 10-20B crit I could do mUCH better
since the average attack dmg is at hundreds of millions still
Sleeping for ten to eleven hours woo. Please send help.
Anno
>>593369 you write a really nice email to blizzard thanking them for spending so much time testing reaper of souls. malthael on t13 routinely kills me with that crap on my squishies
maybe like 1/2 of the time he'll try to shoot his balls/lightning combo instead of the frost storm while you're recovering from the cutscene or cutscene skip
>>593372 huh th at's strange maybe it considers alt+key a separate bind >>593375 oh it's bound to print screen for me
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
alt+f12 just doesn't work I'd havet o change it to non F button for screen shot
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593374 yeah I changed it prnt screen is fucking stupid

... My luck
Anno
>>593378 yeah but if i'm playing a game i don't want it to capture my second monitor as well >>593380 molten sucks earlier i was getting 1-shot for 913k dmg with 21mil toughness in some rift
Anno
from those goddamn mortars they shoot everywhere
i think the worst affix i had tonight was jailer waller frozen pulse desecrator every time he cast jail and half the time with wall he would follow up with frozen pulse moving into me and then the puddle under my feet and i'd get vaporized
>>593382 Mortars are damn weak imo You just have to know the distance to keep to them but ofc sometimes a horde of mortars... just flood EVERYTHING
but generally jailer+anything nasty is worst or wallr
Anno
it probably wouldn't have been so bad if there was room but the map was a clusterfuck with the act V graveyard tileset and 3 champion packs/2 elite packs at the entrance after dying like 5 times and finally killing the mortars i was able to stay away from the rest of the packs other than oppressors (the demons from act IV that charge ranged targets and stun) and gained the last 40% of rift progress in about a minute
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I hate when some enemies that usualyl get dragged by black hole DON'T GET AFFECTTED BY BLACK HOLE for reasons
Anno
>17 enchants to get socket on weapon give me ramaladni's already you shit ass game
Anno
>even rerolled non ancient jesseth's still makes me lose 150k sheet damage fuck it i want the quad damage skellingtons this character has gotten stupid good luck with ancient legendary weapons that i don't want i've gotten 5 and smashed 3 of them and one is now on my enchantress even
Anno
>>593387 what i hate is those fat guys from act III that give invulnerability shield to allies as a base ability the ones with the staff i'm not sure of their name those guys can eat a dick
Anno
also the bogan trappers with their impossible to see quills that are somehow faster than fucking arrows from skeleton archers those guys have popped my glass cannon DH so many times i'm getting triggered just thinking about it
Yaii two new skins >>593390 I hate the fat zombies who explode and the poison zombies most
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and then as second place comes anything that JUMPS at you because JUMP is immortal to all dmg because you can't HIT UP not even with BLACK HOLE or BLIZZARD or anything
"oh a catwoman is jumpinga t me and Ic an't dodge I guess I will just eat the damage"
also fuck those cat women their fire bottles deal WAY too much dmg
like fuck all heavenly dmg reaper dmg or demonic dmg
those fire bottles diablo or malthael should have just SPAMMED THOSE
Anno
>>593393 oh yeah the jumping guys from act III and IV are annoying too so are most of the enemies that charge except for like the beast that has a telegraphed charge
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Succubi used to be near imba their bolts tracked and they dealt random DEBUFF
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593395 >random act 4 fallen angel out of bounds charge kills you
Also the fat reaper angels >blasts the iceblast in some region where there isn't enough room to manuever out of the way >enjoy 75-150% dmg of hp + shield
Anno
my commanded skellies are hitting for 5b on a crit hnnng
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
wat torment?
Anno
>>593400 only 10 i am so thirsty for those gloves that give pets 55% bonus attack speed that shit cubed will straight up add more than twice as much dmg my only damage is minions
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
you can really stack up the skellie dmg
the bone golem is kinda useless
Anno
yeah i only have him right now because the only useful legendary effect i have is moribund gauntlets (makes him shed a corpse every sec) after i get those other gloves cubed he's getting swapped out >>593404 curses are really good for one very specific niche build that isn't relevant in the face of the current meta
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but the necro is kinda... half assed the CURSEs are so shit and half of necro abilities aside from skellie related shit is just... "why would I use this?"
>>593405 they're also good for leeching in grifts if you don't want to play the game to get loot for some reason
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
buit compare them to d2 curses...
Anno
amplify dmg corpse explosion with skellies to generate the first corpse is my favorite d2 build some people say you don't need 20 points in amp damage it only increases the radius but i say dude my curse is bigger than the screen L M A O
corpse explosion in d2 was just broken since it dealt dmg based on corpse hp
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593408 I don't think necro had any curse that made a curse better just decreased mana cost and inreased aoe
Anno
>>593410 yeah extra points of them is just to make it go from tiny to big enough at like, 5 but you can get it a lot higher and my build only needs like 40 points for corpse explosion and bone lance with 1 point in skellies so that you can get the extra skill lvls from runewords and gear
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it was pretty much how much did you want to right click
>>593411 I dunno if you od true summonancer you don't have that *summo+bonemancer you don't have that many points to spare
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
cause actually maxed skellies skeletons+skelmastery+skalmage those DEAL INSANE DMG
Anno
>>593413 yeah there's not enough points for full skeleton AND bone spear i just chose bone spear because it takes fewer points to get good damage out of it and the rest of your points go into corpse explosion and any other stuff you want situationally >>593418 it does good damage but corpse explosion is way lazier
you can get 33+ pts in corpse explosion, the radius is literally 150% of the viewable screen at max resolution for D2 combine that with amp damage and some skellies to kill stuff and you can use a TP staff to teleport around blowing up the entire screen with few important build items
>>593415 Max Skellimancer had the best dmg, though
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but man Bone spirit was useless...
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
practically worst ability even the heavenly lightning palladin ability was better since it atleast HEALED allies
Anno
>>593420 if it wasn't for teeth existing i'd say bone spirit is the worst spell in the game bone spear also does crap dmg compared to the other spellcasters but at least it pierces even maxed out spirit does barely more than spear and costs more mana
since Teeth can only hit enemies with one pellet per cast though, that's the most worthless shit
But in d2 I liked Zeal palladin most zeal+vengeance or that elemental strike
that was just damn solid either one target or mass target dmg
Anno
>>593427 there was too much bullshit in later difficulties for me to like lightning's huge damage range casting 4 times and not killing one of the gloams on hell in the last act meant i was going to die
Druid overall was shittiest class though >minions is shitty necro >wulf is shitty assassin/amazon >bear is shitty barbarian >elemental is shitty sorceress
Anno
>>593432 its not as good as it used to be but i still think 3.3k dmg per blessed hammer is really good it has a lot of trouble if you don't have something like glorious smite pala stunlocking everything for you (thanks rook)
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593434 it is fucking solid dmg, but basically hitting bosses with the hammers is the issue
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and hammerdins usually lack good staying power in combat compared to zeal palladins, who are face first hacking at the enemies
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I think most fun combi is zeal pala + skele necro
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
lots of undead spearheaded by a palladin
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but thank god that D3 didn't have those fucking maggot dens... >1 character wide dens filled with poison and lightning spamming enemies
Anno
>>593437 pally and necro do well together yeah skellies love auras too
my favorite combo was smite/zeal/hammer paladin with all relevant auras though me and the gang blazed through all difficulties on those three easier than a ny other playthrough it was great we tried 3 hammerdins for a while and that was hilarious to watch but not quite as effective
assassin was prolly hardest class though since aside from doing traps, which still required lots of manuevering every other build required lots of skill switching
Anno
i never really played assassin, just necro/pally/sorc usually and druid a few times
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it is constant looking after the combo perks or other abilities assassin wasn't bad, but it just was... lot of pain
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
the assassin is actually quite like the monk character from DD you have to do openings, flows and then finishers and fucking keep track of those and also STACK multiple openings and flows...
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I had a pvp baba, general amazon, lightning sorcerer, skellie+bone necro, and fucked up paladin + several other palladins
Anno
oh yeah i had a barb too! a frenzy barb with +150% movement speed at max frenzy for memes
Monk could be interesting but I dunno most builds are just so many ability switches or just too few abilities
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and any melee build just sums up in "life per hit" in the end otherwise you just die
Anno
>>593451 yeah it's a struggle to survive most of the time unless you really love shields and less than optimal damage i don't like monk that much but out of the other two i'm not sure if i like barb or crusader better maybe crusader since they get more unique skills and sets
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593452 my monk run of the story was mostly "I don't take any dmg at all I should raise difficulty" Okay "I raised difficulty, but I don't deal any dmg, but I also don't DEAL any dmg"
Anno
>ancient bracers YES >they don't have +17% or better phys damage so i'm losing even more damage FUCK
>>593459 gotta pray to kadala and satan for those puzzle rings
Anno
or just get boon of the hoarder leveled up and go to that room before adria in act V on t13 it can proc off every one of those tiny spiders that crawl out of the ceiling/cliffside throughout that place it's fun to see them all explode into millions of gold
Anno
i already got my boon on console this season but still yet to see the goblin open a portal or get a puzzle ring on PC
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
give me more socketed amulets for that though
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I have only seen 1 greed portal and 1p uzzle ring IN MY ALL PLAY HOURS
Anno
in non seasonal on ps4 I have a squirt's amulet with almost 100% bonus monster gold and a socket >>593464 damn that's bad luck i'm not sure how many i've seen but definitely more than 1
it's not very interesting and doesn't affect your damage like some other sets but it does afford more room to allocate stats to damage which helps since i'm sacrificing a lot of raw damage to abuse all these stacking damage bonuses
>>593473 well it isn't atleast so volatile to exploe as Tal rasha >lose buffs >insta death
Anno
army of the dead is pretty crap but until i get ring of nailuj's evol it's a better CD than land of the dead once i get tasker and theo and the ring, both golem and army are going away for land of the dead and simulacrum + the rune that doubles your max essence infinite corpses + devour means infinite essence to use on doubled up Singularity skelly mages and doubled max essence during simu means they can do some MAD DEEPS
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but imo tal rasha's weakness is its charm you ahve to actually rotate abilities and sometimes try to strategise it with that element ring
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>593476 oh yeah that was one of them ore boring things with necro the essence generating abilities were just meeeh
Nothing compared to the wizard's UNLIMITED POWER lightning, which is fucking crap like all generatin spells wizard has
fucking why use those even?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but it was UNLIMITED POWER
Anno
changing my old sword and losing 30% of my paper doll damage leads to me killing the same rift three times as fast jesseth's is fucking good >>593484 i dunno it's kind of annoying they could have at least made it to where you can transmog any 1h into any 1h it's not like it really matters what kind of weapon you are holding anyway
>original greed death scene he was crucified to a stone slab >tankobon death scene >crucified to a stone slab that wasn't a cross >anime death scene tied to a stone pillar
heh
Anno
10 more gloves, 1 more pair of gloves for that terrible bone armor set
Anno
i know you're hiding the good shit in the back kadala
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
actually... fuck that bitch she hides DAMN good loot that could SAVE THE WORLD but she is all "nah you need to lottery it"
Anno
yeah she's got a perfect stat ancient jesseth's and focus/restraint she just wants to get rid of the 1,000,000 rares first
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but man I want a better weapon for my wizard
but it never drops
also damn the Sloraks madness is amusing you get that EVIL LAUGH each time you die
Anno
can you cube that power? i know you can cube cluckeye for some reason
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yes
Anno
makes sense, it's really strong
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but seriously, who doesn't use the disintegration boost with wizard...
Anno
i think i used the source that cast a different secondary skill every sec you channel a spell that made tal rasha's ez i just slotted blizzard instead of a different frost skill and got a free blizzard every 2 sec while disintegrating that procced tal rasha's and kept my buff with no thought required
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
wizard actually has many viable builds but I dunno they just are so situational
especially the ARCHOn ones >run out of archon >what now?
frost hydra has piercing cones fired by three heads in three directions at best
Anno
it is usually not worth slotting for sure but the weapon power i cubed cast it for free while channeling disintegrate so free blizzard meant free damage and root/slow for utility i also tried frozen orb but blizzard did more damage in the end and you could combine it with the armor that increased your damage on frozen enemies for a good boost
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
blizzard is actually a quite bad spell, but it has that large AOE especially when you fire it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I have fire blizzard, ice hydra, lightning black hole and well arcane arcane beam
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I tried ice blizzard with either of the fire hydras but ice hydra just wins overall especially in the thight dungeons I usually wind up in rifts
ayyy and i was gonna make this my last run now i just need 4 more items and my build's loadout will be complete and i'll be in grift 60+ with the big bois
>>593511 it had some problems but it was overall pretty good that one dude is def coming back
Anno
Not the first recurring character to come out of Stormwatch, though the previous was certainly more pleasant. Having a returning villain who's unapolgetically either a white supremacist or an alien with clear overlap with that is an interesting choice for the show though.
Yeah, it is interesting. It's certainly in-line with the times, though.
I would have expected a sexist villain, maybe.
Anno
It makes setting his arrival episode in the 1950s a bit of a clever subtlety on the writers' part. They could have done some kind of race-tinged plot in modern times, but setting him up in the midst of Southern racism really goes to show how little has changed in the following sixty years.
Today's episode is Arachnids in the UK. I hope it's not ... too spidery.
yeah thankfully the dysphoria and lethargy doesn't last too long >>593519 >>593522 i slept for 1 hour yesterday now I'm going to nap for five every day is a new mistake

I wouldn't be surprised if that's not really accurate. The creative team behind her probably doesn't even know fully who he is. And is just familiar that he's in the spotlight in English media.
>>593619 Yeah, that's kind of funny how simple it is. Granted outside of the cutscenes I don't see the textures as that impressive, from what I've seen of others playing it. But that might also be YouTube compression messing with the quality. The scenery does look gorgeous from a wider, stepping back and looking at it all sense though.

>tfw its so cold that youre mentally willing your hands to move but your fingers wont listen

it might be what kills me one day if i keep doing mountains it's what almost fucked up the Russia trip and what almost got me locked out of my rented appartment right just now because i physically couldn't turn the key in the front door lock

Welcome to the north, Mersh.
I hate late nights in the middle of winter. Cold fingers are never a pleasant experience.
it's a really shitty feeling though - when your numb body won't do what you tell it to like you're being betrayed by your own hands
tonight was just kind of unpleasant but like, when I was doing Elbrus one of my crampons came off 5000m up in the middle of the night. and i just couldn't do the strap up again because my hands would not move at all no matter how much i willed it. and that actually could have killed me if there weren't other more experienced people around.

>>593695 maybe you ought to get some warmer gloves?
Anno
Maybe he doesn't even have a pair of gloves to begin with. That feels kind of Marshy.
google says it's only -2C in Helsinki That'd be bad without gloves
Anno
If they're in open air constantly, sure, maybe. But like, if you've got a jacket with decently long sleeves or take advantage of pockets, that temperature's no big deal. I can't remember where I kept my gloves last so the past few winters I've just gone without.
You're implying that it's something that is foolish and impulsive
something that i've never been guilty of in my life. .
Anno
Never, eh.
Well if it makes you feel better I pretty much immediately after confessed to not having gloves either. And it definitely gets colder than -2C in the winter here.
Maybe try and keep your fingers moving while you're out in the cold. As long as they're wiggling, blood is circulating within them. And with blood comes heat.
>>593711 Do you ever take those heat packets with you on important situations? Stuffing one of those into your glove can really help with keeping heat in there.
Marshi-chan
>>593713 I'm thinking of times where you might need to take the gloves off like to perform some dexterous, technical movement that isn't possible when your fingers are all padded up
Anno
Well if your two choices for a dexterous, technical movement are to do them while your fingers are padded up but warm, or open to the environment but freezing to the point of being uncooperative, you kind of have to gauge the situation and figure out which one is more preferable. I think for turning a key at least you can do that while gloved up.
leather gloves are some good shit i got some common cotton gloves but they're shit alright for warmth but can't do much in them my leather gloves, though they're real good
Marshi-chan
I doubt people from Florida even know how to put gloves on.
Anno
same could be said for a large population of Australians
>>593718 they do when they love the cold as much as me plus i inherited all the warm clothes my grandfather wore when traveling through russia and ukraine in the winter

They were expressing their displeasure at Fish being back, well, mostly my mom, but Fish got upset and told her that we were getting married next weekend (we're not) and my mom stood up and said "you're marrying that?"
Yeah, learning archery for self defense is pretty weird.
月
seems like it could be useful for defense against home invasion not exactly for out and about in public though
Anno
Crossbow would be more ideal than a traditional bow for that thuogh.
Kirara, the Cat
bow would be very ineffective in home invasion unless you've got a super big house or something a bow takes a good amount of time and room to fire
Anno
You need a fair bit of elbow room to draw a bow. Would make it tricky for hallways or the like. Less of an issue with a crossbow though.
月
the two rare times ive had home invasions attempts, i stopped/prevented it from the outside >>593754 we had this discussion before and i was of the opinion that pulling a gun out is more likely to get you shot unless it was a rifle i dont think it'll benefit us to have the discussion again though and i dont particularly want to
It really seems like pistols or shotguns would be best for home defense.
FormerRei@mobile
>>593754 Shotguns are the best because they're easiest to aim and don't go through walls and kill people on te other side s much Although they're also really good for killing your own family members b mistake *by
FormerRei@mobile
>>593753 Depending on the area Many (possibly most) home invaders don't bring guns because that's *that adds a lot more to your prison time
Kirara, the Cat
nothin wrong with killing some family members by mistake
月
ya i was tryin to fend off a home invader but accidentally stabbed a family member 14 times shit happens officer you understand
Kirara, the Cat
it couldn't be helped you know
Maria
it was just so dark that night yknow
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
is the subconscious part of the bully center of the brain
FormerRei@mobile
Anyways if I ever use a shotgun for self defense I'll leave it with less lethal ammo in it
FormerRei@mobile
Like rubber buckshot or something
Kirara, the Cat
people want to defend themselves so they can destroy themselves by themselves it's weird
FormerRei@mobile
Wat
FormerRei@mobile
Oh nvm i get it

Maria
>>593800 Is this another Florida thing or just a Kiraras apartment block thinf
Kirara, the Cat
florida doesn't have a lot of trick or treating like less than 10% of the population is under the age of 21 or something
Kirara, the Cat
except in the cities

i think parents have to be pretty insane to let their children trick or treat anymore in 2018 unless it's very specifically within a well-connected neighborhood i already guarantee we'll hear some fucked up stuff but it won't be razorblades anymore
tbh i'd rather my kid have weed edibles than all that sugar let em chill out for a bit i could use the break

i dm'ed someone some useful info and they're like why did you dm me instead of tweet it? do you wanna tweet it so i can rt you? i dont wanna steal your thunder for finding this
i dont get it what do i gain from a bunch of twitter attention besides more clutter and unwanted noise
the very first day of the haruhi news break, a ton of /pol/ headed straight for my wiki and blasted the comments with all sorts of hate speech since they knew it was gonna be visited by academicians and stuff wikia had been rebranded under fandom so i couldn't recover my password by email for some reason i got really lucky and remembered the login credentials though and cleared all that shit out
then i got labeled the banksy of mathematics and had a bunch of normies digging through my cringey old ragnarok online forum posts from a decade ago trying to find me so they could get twitter fame
no i was the facilitator and archivist for all of that stuff i contributed to the work with three others over a period of a month or so the thing that was being cited was a very specific approach about how to model the problem with directed graphs which was one of the posters' contributions i wouldn't have taken credit for it if i did solve it though i did some refining work after that point too but that specific breakthrough can't be attributed to me but people thought it was me since i was involved
FormerRei@mobile
Oh, okay
月
it's all been very surreal
月
from all of it i've learned that this is a very bad era to have attention or fame everything is too public im happy in my private little bubble
i am going to get fucking drunk tonight god dammit
月
enjoy it i wish there was non-alcoholic beer that didn't taste like shit i found some alcohol-free distilled spirits i want to try out though when i get the money
Anno
how does that even work what is a distilled spirit other than alcohol and water with a little flavorings at most?
月
im not exactly sure but there's a company that does it and it sounds really good let me see if i can find it >We’re a lot of the same methods and techniques, but with a different angle. We’ll start with macerations of the individual plants with neutral grain spirit and water at a specific ratio for a specific amount of time. We will then use distillation to do two things: one, we can remove the small amounts of alcohol because it has a different boiling point than water. And two, we can use distillation to capture and concentrate the flavor that's left from the maceration.
i'm guessing that it would have the very intense aromatic flavor that you would still sip, like one would sip spirits, and could be appreciated in that same kind of way and that's what i really like about bourbon anyway, and tbh the alcohol kind of kills it for me at this point i like having my senses sharp enough to appreciate the stimulation of the flavor
Anno
ah makes sense I'm not sure if it will taste very similar since alcohol is part of the flavor profile but I'd like to give it a shot if they made a non alcoholic Gin that actually tasted like Gin that would be awesome
月
yeah for sure it'd be a little bit different mocktails are getting kind of popular now but im sure there'd be something missing with non-alcoholic bourbon straight i just want that deep, rich kind of experience without the alcohol but normal drinks are all so sugary and sweet and stuff
FormerRei@mobile
>>593835 Gasoline would be non alcoholic and taste like gin.
月
come to think of it, pomegranate juice and blueberry juice are very not sweet and have that deep flavor they're both awfully expensive though
FormerRei@mobile
I've never had blueberry juice before.
FormerRei@mobile
Night
Anno
pomegranate juice is good >>593837 gasoline has alcohol in it dummy
Anno
almost every gas station has up to 10% ethanol in it here

how do these strands of my hair keep finding their way to my mouth
my brother's hair went to a big afro when he decided to grow it out so he never has to worry about that mines really wavy though and can easily get in my way
Anno
>>593844 i think maybe it's because my bangs are too long maybe eventually they'll be long enough and heavy enough to stay away from my mouth >>593845 all yours goes sideways like weird al
question for switch owners how much of a disadvantage is the main controller for multiplayer I've never actually played our switch at home but I imagine it's like the wii u equivalent >>593855 thank
月
yes
Anno
>>593853 What sort of disadvantage are you talking about? Latency? Comfort? Targeting with a control stick?
Anno
probably comfort I think I'll scrap the idea of getting a multiplayer game though, since Nintendo's pricing irks me so
Anno
>>593853 it is somewhat small and difficult to get used to it is probably the most uncomfortable controller i've ever used but it is perfectly functional i suppose unless you're playing for several hours and have arthritis it isn't a huge deal i guess but the experience is not something i would call a disadvantage over the only multiplayer game i really play on the switch is mario kart though and that game has fairly simple controls i haven't found it difficult to use in dark souls after playing with it for a good while i say it's an ok controller
Anno
Kind of depends on the person too. I've found it pretty comfortable but I've got smaller hands than most. The layout can be kind of weird since the control sticks aren't level with each other but that's something that's pretty easy to adapt to. Also some games like Splatoon take advantage of the motion tracking of the controller, which is arguably a more accurate aiming than even a mouse for some. It makes interacting wit h the games kind of weird but definitely a unique experience.
When it comes to long-term exhaustion I've played Monster Hunter for hours and hours on end without any real hand strain, so I think the controller in both standard formates is pretty comfortable. And the other weirder styles are even more comfortable since you're just holding them like, well I don't really know what that would be like. But it's pretty comfortable even if weird.
And I know it's probably not too appealing an option but there's always the Pro controller if you want a more traditional experience.
>>593867 >>593868 ah, thanks, that's really helpful I think all in all I'll hold out on getting a multiplayer game for a while might even consider getting another pro controller too
the only disavantage i can think of after wracking my rick and morty size brain for video games is it's more difficult to press the face buttons, move the analog stick, and keep a finger on the shoulder buttons with the claw style grip still possible but takes some practice to get used to
Anno
Yeah, playing Monster Hunter I still find myself some times going into weird hand positions to make sure I can press buttons and still have fingers on both sticks.
Anno
That hasn't been an issue with other third-person games I've played like Odyssey or Breath of the Wild though.
Anno
that's just because capcom and from software are centuries behind every other developer on 3D camera
hi im an angry gay critic and i hate the most popular good shit lately because it's easy to get a lot of hits on my review and i don't even know what really bad shit is like
Anno
It's easy to get into the feeling of shitting on things. It's fun and feels good in a sense.
Anno
I'm watching this week's Doctor Who and aaadasdasfasdasdasfadsasd. There's giant spiders involved and they are absolutely terrifying.
>>594033 it feels good to shit 8/10 -ign >>594034 could you imagine giant tarantulas though they would be super fluffy
月
you're only scared of them because you don't understand them
Anno
I would say I understand spiders probably decently, better than the average. It's not a matter of fearing the unknown, it's more experience. Cobwebs are unpleasant, feeling them on you is unpleasant, imagining getting bitten by one is unpleasant.
>>594045 yeah but if you touch a cobweb it means there hasn't been a spider there for a long time! and it's not even usually very sticky and gross anymore
Anno
I dunno I've found them to always be clingy and an unpleasant texture. It's definitely a subjective thing but it's a thing I can't handle.
>>594052 wait google what corn contains? >>594050 i dunno spider webs are gross to touch but cobwebs are usually covered in so much dust it doesn't feel as gross to me i guess i mainly just don't like the sticky stuff
>>594053 we've cut costs by allowing the FDA approved level of human bone and tissue in our corn improving profit by 0.4%
月
man there's meat products that say like 20% water added and stuff so if you're buying 12oz of meat you're really getting 10oz of meat that's been pumped full of water so the price per ounce looks better i really get bothered by that when i am on a budget and trying to price shop and think im getting a good deal but then it's way less than it seemed
>>594055 i generally stay away from anything that seems less than authentic like that so i don't eat meat a lot i guess lately i haven't been eating a lot anyway though haha
月
i havent been drinking so ive been eating a lot more
Anno
My eating's been getting kind of, well I don't really know the word for it. But I've been eating like a single meal a day and then maybe some times some light things throughout the day. That single meal's been getting really large though and that's not an ideal way to be eating.
月
if cow milk can pass regulations for human consumption, i dont understand why we can't sell human milk at the store it's not that strange of a concept
Anno
but if we legalize it the corporations are literally going to overmilk women we'd have to createal a lot of labor laws to protect women from profit hungry corporations we must form the milk union
