So, what's your point? Other people might have a lot more boring childhood anecdotes to tell, but it's not like I'm suffering in any kind. I still remember people or useful skill - the stuff I do use.

As an added benefit of growing up quite poor, I probably just had less unique experiences I actually could recall. Like, I've been on three travel vacations overall. Kinda like those COVID years blurred together for most people.

Nah, it's just shitty memory. I have had quite the happy childhood, actually.

I don't find myself reminiscing a lot and in the rare cases I do, there are quite some gaps. Even in more recent times. If I really try to dig, maybe it comes back, but I assume it's "use it or lose it".

I've already forgotten most of my childhood and I'm only around 30. So I'd assume, yes.

I don't know the episode, but the joke is about the TV broadcast experiencing difficulties. The broadcast warns against any sexual interactions to pass time because years of TV radiation shriveled up their genitals.

I've waited months to collected one of these points! Let's hope I'm right.

I assumed as much, but had hoped for a less disgusting reason.

Ich werde nie verstehen, warum alle es so geil finden nach unten zu treten. Klar, Populisten brauchen einen Sündenbock damit wir nicht noch auf die Idee kommen Ihnen oder ihren reichen Freunden das Geld wegzunehmen - aber das die Wähler das geil finden trifft mich.

Why would you protest this change? 0.015% is still insane and it takes nothing away from the ones who already made it.

I'm really glad I wasn't born into one of the hyper competitive Asian education systems, but on the other hand, I'm not sure the degrading western education systems I was born in are better. A happy middle ground would be nice.

Some games I replay a lot, but always on a fresh save. I think I've finished Dark Souls about 10 times without ever touching NG+.

Notable exceptions are:

  • Nier Automata, although you kind of have to if you want the whole game and it still brought down the experience for me.
  • Chrono Trigger, for the quick kill on Lavos. I did not play much of the NG+.

I couldn't name a single street in the city I've been born in except the ones I lived in. I've learned to navigate the city before I could read and never bothered to read street names thereafter.

The same goes for every other city, my mental map of cities includes almost no street names. Maybe that's because I don't use cars at all, after all I could name bus stations and such (some of which are named after streets, I guess, but I've still got no idea about how they connect or even which street of an intersection actually has the name).

I guess my wish came true, and we're done with setup episodes. The only thing still missing is a reoccurring villain - the original Dragon Ball was at its best with Piccolo, Tao Pai-Pai or General Blue.

I'm still not very interested in Glorio, but Panzy seems like a fun stand-in for Bulma. In fact, she seems so similar, I'm wondering why Bulma will join at all. Maybe both groups will be on their own adventure for the most part. The new alien guy joining up with Vegeta seems fun, I'm sure they will annoy each other to no end.

Goku almost went Super Saiyan and up until now nothing came close to a challenge. I guess it will be quite some time until they hit a wall, which is a shame, since training arcs are always my favorite ones.

Otherwise, there isn't much to say. Shin still did nothing, they still lay it on thick about Glorio being suspicious and with the ship crashing after mere minutes, while funny, the episode ended where it began.

Who cares? Just like most things your average programmer relies on, they are written by smarter or at least more specialised people to make your job easier. They have learned to write memory-safe code so you don't have to.

That approach may work for journalism and such, with a single person collecting primary sources and verifying them before writing an article. However, it does not work on the internet.

Instead of one person verifying the claim and adding further sources in an article, every single reader would have to do it. And anyone using the internet would have to do so hundreds of times every day. Nobody does that. It only makes sense to shift the burden of further proof onto the primary source or disregard it.

Decks for starting out (self.masterduel)
submitted 9 months ago by De_Narm to c/masterduel
 

Greetings!

I'm fairly new to Master Duel and didn't play much Yu-Gi-Oh! in general for the past decade - you could say I'm a complete amateur.

Now, I've done most of the solo mode stuff to get to know some more archetypes and played the current Theme Chronicles event to the point where I got all obtainable gems with the vendread loaner deck. Luckily, the loaner was actually quite good, so I didn't need to build a deck. (Got all gems with a 22:8 win ratio.)

After all of this, I want to dive into ranked. For the solo mode stuff I've used an Endymion deck, which seems to be rouge at best - and I've only got the bare basics for the deck anyway (pretty much no extra deck). But now I have no clue which deck to go for. I don't know shit about the meta game and even less about the longterm viability of decks, as I don't want to spend all my ressources on building a deck that will banned soon anyway (like, Baronne seems like something that will be banned soon). Or worse, something that is simply unfun to play.

I don't particually enjoy stun decks and I'm not into all or nothing combo decks ending on a board full of generic boss monsters (looking at the new superheavy stuff). Is there something viable to start building, ideally with a low power version to test the strategy, before commiting to pulling/crafting all cards needed? (like, Mannadium would take all my ressources and it's gamble if I'd like it)

 

I'm just starting out with Godot and I've run into some strange or unwanted behaviors. Maybe some of you can help me fix them. I'm currently running Godot on arch linux with x11/i3 as my desktop environment.

1.) Godot got some really aggressive focus. The editor grabs the focus mid typing in other applications and suddenly I'm tying there. With i3 being a tiling manager, Godot is sometimes passively resized when I resize another window - of course it also immediately gets itself focused and messed the resizing up.

2.) The focus within Godot is even stranger. I can ctrl c + ctrl v nodes just fine on a freshly opened project. But once I've a clicked a single property in the import or inspector docker, ctrl c + ctrl v will work exclusively there. Even if the import docker is hidden underneath the scene docker where I'm clicking the nodes I want to copy/paste.

3.) The last one is about using an external editor. Whenever Godot encounters a bug, it will automatically open the script in question. Which is annoying because I use vim for everything and will throw warnings at me, that the file has been changed. I've looked through all editor settings and tried setting vim as my external editor but the behavior persists.

Basically, as the title says. I've got the itch to play another dragon quest game and would like to know how well regarded the ones are I didn't play yet compared to the ones I've played. Although I'll probably play IV in preparation for the upcoming DQM game, as I love those, maybe I've got time for two. Anyways, here's my list:

  1. DQ V (DS version)
  • It's got the overall best story thus far and includes monster taming, which I really liked. Overall just one of my favorite games.
  1. DQ VII (PS)
  • I'm oddly fond of VII. I'll acknowledge that it probably is not better than some of the following ones on paper, but it just clicked with me. I really like the beginning part of RPGs and VII got several of those with how disconnected it is at times.
  1. DQ XI (Switch)
  • I loved every second of XI and would probably rank it higher if the post-game wouldn't do what it does. While I really liked them later on, the Hero and both twins started off quite bland.
  1. DQ VIII (3DS)
  • The game itself is still really good, but it never grasped me with its story as the ones above did at times.
  1. DQ IX (DS)
  • IX never clicked with me at all. Having only silent no-names in you party already started off bad, but the overall story wasn't my cup of tea either. I generally like class systems, but this one didn't do it for me either.
