| DEKMStephens 02/17/22 10:05:15 PM #11 | WaterLink posted... Psycho-Pass is a pretty good anime with the same premise.

| DEKMStephens 02/10/22 7:32:55 PM #66 | A reality is that for such a technology to ever work stuff like this will have to happen to animals. That said? I am sure the technology isn't even ready to be tested and Musk threw money at it to force it forward. --- ----- ------- |
| Topic | Lol South Park is conservative now |

Didn't know that was her reason why..I just looked this up and yikes. I am not the biggest fan of south park and this new episode sounded cringey, but I think I can cut it out of my viewing diet now. --- ----- ------- |
| Topic | Playing Sage in FFXIV |
| DEKMStephens 01/26/22 8:18:58 PM #16 | Not so much lacking but conflicting. Scholars level 60, 70 and 80 abilities have to be used mutually exclusively. Additionally fairy seems pretty pointless since shb changes. In this case I think sch but with kardia instead of fairy, and maybe that one extra aoe move would be pretty slick. --- ----- ------- |
| Topic | Playing Sage in FFXIV |
| DEKMStephens 01/25/22 4:26:32 AM #10 | I think if you carved up Scholar and Sage and put them together you could have one solid healing job class. Both are a bit lacking in different, often weird ways. --- ----- ------- |

I'm not much of a raider either, last I had raided before that was Sigmascape where I think I cleared the first two fights week one semi-pugging. --- ----- ------- |

| DEKMStephens 01/05/22 6:45:03 PM #455 | s0nicfan posted... Savages have an entirely different second half of the fight. It's more than just additional hit points, it has a bunch of new mechanics and a set timer ("enrage") that if you can't do enough damage quickly enough automatically wipes the entire party. Compared to regular, savages require significant and ongoing coordination between the entire party and consistently high dps. In the opening days of a Savage even a single character dying can cause the entire party to fail to do enough damage before the enrage timer goes off.This post is mostly false, unless raiding culture varies significantly between Data Centers. Usually it is only the last and maybe second to last savage fight that are difficult to clear early in a new raid tier through party finder --- ----- ------- |

Fuck, got to the 3rd overworld zoneThe effort might be maximising damage output at level 90, I intend to play Summoner a bit eventually but I wouldn't be surprised if you have to make some hard judgement calls about what order to use summons in for different fights, when to use swiftcast, etc. Or maybe it is just dead easy. --- ----- ------- |
| Topic | Get woke, stop demonizing some animals as "invasive species" |
| DEKMStephens 11/28/21 11:24:59 PM #14 | That is an impressively stupid article. Animals, plants, etc becoming established where they weren't before due to climate change is usually a pretty good indication what is already living there is about to be fucked up. Invasive species also are pretty important from a biosecurity perspective; if something is not only going to decimate the environment but also food crops that doesn't bode well for a planet dealing with food insecurity --- ----- ------- |

| DEKMStephens 11/19/21 1:13:16 AM #148 | _Krave_ posted... Gonna be devil's advocate for a second:I'd take a step and rephrase it to be a legal construct more than a social one. The social aspect is society has decided there has to be a cut off point where sexual acts with someone isn't acceptable below a certain age. But this means we have to draw an arbitrary line has to be drawn somewhere (some may say it isn't arbitrary, but there probably isn't much scientific basis behind choosing say 18 versus 17 or 19). So different cultures have chosen different numbers in years whether that is 14, 16, 18 or something else. And, of course, numbers have changed over the course of history generally trending upwards so historical ages for marriage are considered repulsive by modern western societies at least. Kinda fascinating to think about. --- ----- ------- |

| Topic | If... the Rito are descended from Zora, how are there both Zora and Rito in BOTW |
| DEKMStephens 11/17/21 3:23:14 AM #41 | Evolution doesn't require one species to go extinct for another to form. Scenario: you have two populations of Zora and a mountain raises out of the sea/lake/whatever over time separating the populations. Maybe one side stays wet so the Zora there remain effectively the same, while it starts getting dry on the other side. It becomes favourable to become bird people for some reason. Then if they are interacting again now in the present, maybe that geological barrier is gone or they found a way around it. --- ----- ------- |

| Topic | Rittenhouse for his gun charges dropped. |
| DEKMStephens 11/15/21 2:40:51 PM #106 | Son Of Spam posted... I'm as left-wing as they come, but I really don't understand why this case was the one that sparked national outrage. There were so many egregious cases of police brutality caught on video during the protests last year, and yet this fairly open and shut case of self-defense was the national headline. Does anyone remember when those cops shoved an old man to the ground and cracked his skull open? They had their charges dropped, and it didn't even make it to try.It's probably a matter of "we can't apparently hold cops accountable but this isn't a cop so surely". I was never sold on the murder charges but it is kinda crazy to me that apparently nothing he did was illegal. I'd imagine the last thing anyone would want in future scenarios is more people attending events like kenosha with guns while being political opponents of each other, but I can't see anything dissuading that now. --- ----- ------- |
