Usually you can get around that by using something where the damage isn't that important (I like to use the Pain-inflicting combo attack for that but I'm sure there are others).

Later on you can get a weapon which starts you in Almighty, which solves everything.

Just a heads up but difficulty does not affect the parry window. So if thats what youre having trouble with changing it wont help.

Aside from that I was bothered by the parry system at first but most enemys or bosses dont have more than 2-3 patterns to memorize. And after a while youre get very good at it. Enough to party moves on your first try.

You can use visualize, sound or even return queues to get the timing down. Although the enemy can mix them up near the end to keep you on guard.

Even then the dodge window is far more for giving so you can simply rely on that if you cant get the timing down. Or you simply dont want to risk it.
The basic trick to parrying is that you want to always hit the button right when theyre hitting you, and try to ignore their animations as they like to do lots of flashy animations to try and trick you into parrying too early. If you dont see it hitting you, dont hit it.

The way I played it was on Expert, and if I ever took damage, I reloaded the save. This means I got No Damage for every fight in the game (except the Prologue mime before I realized that was a thing), and +20% bonus XP from every fight.

This lets you really lean into glass cannon builds. For example, there are lots of Pictos that make you do more damage as long as you dont take damage, or do more damage but you take double damage etc. If you resolve to not take damage anyway, none of them have a downside.

Parrying everything is incredibly satisfying and you do shit tons of counter damage when using the Augmented Counter Pictos.

Build wise, I did 2 Agility and 1 Luck on every character every level until Act 3 when I had highly upgraded endgame weapons that scaled off different skills. For most of the game, this strategy gave me high critical chance and often two turns to the enemys one.

Maelle is not complicated at all. You want her in Virtuose stance as much as possible, forget about the other two. Early on, youll want to use Swift Stride on burning enemies to get her into Virtuose Stance, then attack with Perce when you first get her, but it will quickly be outpaced by Fleuret Flurry, which will carry you until you get Sword Ballet.

In the endgame, Maelle is fucking bonkers, so it just depends on how you want to use her. You can one-shot literally anything with Stendhal (even after it was nerfed) if you build her properly, or you can use fire skills and Phantom Strike to try and make the game not a complete joke.

Dude constantly praises modern wrestling when it isn't shit.
Also this.

His main out of touch take is probably how dismissive he is of smaller wrestlers and women wrestlers not named Rhea Ripley. His main thing is suspension of disbelief, and he cant see people buying that a 510 150 pound dude beat a 63 240 pound dude in a physical contest, which is pretty fair.

He doesnt like spotfests like AEW does, but mostly because if everything is special, nothing is. If you do high spots all the fucking time, how are people supposed to care? Stuff loses its appeal when you see it multiple times every week.

Level 2 - might have a controversy or two/past issues , but mostly good and/or worked themselves. Most actors fall under this

level 3 Has either scandals or some controversial worldly views. May be dismissive/oblivious of issues and not take accountability , but not really outspoken about it as they care about their image. Gal Gadot, Chris Pratt, Bill Murray

kevel 4 Likely has a reputation of being difficult to work with/ and/or asshole. Likely has controversial political beliefs and believes in conspiracy theories. Outspoken of said beliefs. Zachary Levi

Level 5 Abhorrant. Supports fascism and believes in conspiracy theories, and outspoken about it. Kevin Sorbo

Is it rude to say it to his face? Yes.
Is it almost certainly true? Also yes. Hes 76 and obese.

By all means, badger the shit out of him. But people need to let go of the idea that theyll ever get an ending.

Brandon Sanderson has said he wouldnt finish it.
Joe Abercrombie has said he wouldnt finish it.
Georges former protgs, Ty Franck and Daniel Abraham (the two of them together make up James S. A. Corey, author of The Expanse) would be the best fit, but they have said that there was a time they would have finished it, but that time has passed.

At this point, the expectations are so high that people are going to be disappointed no matter how it turns out, so I dont think youll find any author willing to risk putting their name on a potato that hot.

Besides, the only way another author even gets the opportunity is if Georges wife Paris ignores his wishes after he dies.

not sure why people keep floating the belief that people hated the end of the series because of what happened... not how it happened, and how quickly. I feel like a lot of people's issues with the ending is the stupid writing, and quick pacing of the final two seasons, because the first 4 seasons (where they had more content to adapt) were really strong.

It was a problem on the directors, not George (other than him not releasing the material for them to draw on, which he said he would do)
No just no.

There is literally no universe where the greedy nobles of a feudal society built upon primogeniture and patriarchal succession elect to be ruled by a paraplegic child who cant produce heirs. That is literally the single stupidest plot point Ive ever heard, and Ive read a series youd think was written by a third grader.

My last Apple laptop lasted me about 7 years. My Windows-using friends went through multiple laptops in that same amount of time. Hell, I'm pretty sure my parents' Apple desktop is at least 10 years old at this point and still chugging along. You pay more upfront, but it always seems to be worth it in the end, from my experience.
Windows has always been a terrible operating system in and of itself. The reason its so dominant is support coupled with backwards compatibility.

Basically 99% of software works on Windows, and a significant portion of that only works on Windows (or through Proton / WINE on Linux).

Even though 99% of games will just work out of the box on Linux now, there are decades of mod managers, save editors, trainers, cheat engines, etc., all these applications around gaming that will either only work on Windows or require you to setup manual WINE bottles etc.

Most people hate Windows (and rightly so), but its still the easiest path to do what they want with their computer.

My base of learning is SF, and to me, King of Fighters is fucking bonkers. Feels like being a classically trained pianist and then trying to parse jazz for the first time. In a vacuum it might not actually be harder, but it may as well be a different language.
Having two punches and kicks works better on almost every controller or stick ever than having three does.

Super moves tend to be way easier (e.g., QCB > HCF is a common motion, compared to the prevalence of HCB >HQCB, HCF > HCF, QCF > QCF, etc. in Capcom ones). Plus, Im not aware of any 720 degree rotations like Zangiefs super, or any of the charge supers (e.g., Charge DB > DF > DB > UP). The supers were just always way easier for me, and grappler characters like Blue Mary and Goro Daimon were way easier to use than Zangief.

I remember the combos being easier, though I havent played a fighting game in a decade probably unless you count Smash.

I just always liked the team aspect and the huge roster. The games just felt better to play.

That depends on what youre asking about.

For general note taking, development, web browsing, etc., yes, because if you put an M silicon MacBook in a backpack and forget it for a month, the battery will basically be where you left it. If you do the same to a Windows laptop, it will probably have a dead battery in 4 or 5 days at the latest.

For gaming, absolutely fucking not. Though Id argue you should only ever buy a gaming laptop if you need to travel all the time for work or something.

In general, Id say yes, because macOS is UNIX based and thus its underpinnings are just much better than those of Windows, while its UX is at least unified and Windows now has about 5 different UXs, none of which are particularly good.

A raspberry pi is just a computer. Its a very small, low powered computer. You can use it to browse the web and emails if you want.

you typically install Linux on it. There might be some way to get windows on it, but thats not its intended use case

typical use cases are:

1) personal projects where you need a small computer I.e. smart home stuff, arcade machine, etc

2) pi-hole adblocker for your home network/wifi

3) self education. Learn Linux if you want, or install some type of server and learn that etc. there are a bunch of stuff you can run on it to learn different things I.e. web development

4) home server type stuff I.e. easily sharing files between PCs via the network

most of this is not for laymen since laymen dont tinker with gadgets. If you want to use it, think of it as just a small computer that runs Linux, and then think about what you might want to learn on Linux
This sums it up concisely.

What do you want to do with it?

Pihole is a great and popular use case.

If you want to make a little emulation console, you can put Batocera on it and connect it to your TV and connect a controller to it. Dont expect it to be emulating PS2 or newer, but for older stuff, it will work just fine for that use case.

Dungeater posted...
i have noticed that enthusiasts on this board have difficulty explaining things to laymen
If youre referring to mine, its pretty simple.

Any time you do anything on the internet, it needs to lookup the IP of whatever it is via a DNS request.

If an ad network requests the IP for an ad, my pis return a non-existent IP (0.0.0.0), so it just cant load the ad because the DNS request doesnt return where it actually lives, for any device on the network. This doesnt work for video ads though unless the ads are served from a different IP than the video is.

For the local DNS part, I purchased a domain through Cloudflare and I make my local domain match for consistency. So I have a local DNS record for Nextcloud, nextcloud.<domain>, which resolves to the IP of my Docker VM, which runs the traefik reverse proxy that ultimately routes the request to my Nextcloud docker container.

On Cloudflare, I have a wildcard record that points the same domain to a VPS (virtual private server) I rent running Pangolin, which tunnels into my network for external access and proxies my the Docker VM which routes to Nextcloud on the same subdomain.

Basically, the local DNS setup means that if I take a picture with my phone, add a new contact on my phone, create a calendar appointment on my phone, etc., it will get auto-uploaded / synced to my Nextcloud server whether Im at home or not.
If Im at home, the route is:
Phone > Router > Raspberry Pi virtual IP > Docker VM > Nextcloud container
If Im not at home, the route is:
Phone > Cloudflare > VPS > Docker VM > Nextcloud container

The pis are indispensable for this, because without them, Id have to go out over the internet any time I needed to access my self-hosted services, and thus I wouldnt be able to access those services if my internet was out.

I have two of them I use for redundant Piholes with keepalived and a virtual IP (one of them is primary, and if it goes down, the virtual IP gets reassigned to the other one til the primary one is back up).

This is my local DNS server for the services I host, with Quad9 as upstream DNS, and it is basically a network wide DNS black hole for most ads.

I run nebula-sync in Docker Compose to sync between the two piholes.

It makes it impossible to know for sure if you have enough points to get by until you just max the damn things.
Both my playthrough were 20 Tech and as low in Body as I could get away with. Thats why I was so annoyed by it and why Attribute Checks De-Scaled was the first mod I installed.

It is completely bonkers that if you are level 5 you can have 3 or 4 Body and the high tier Gorilla Arms and open any Body door as itll be 9, but if youre level 50 the same doors will all require 20 Body. That is batshit and fuck whoever decided it.

It was fine at launch for me on PC. Worst bug I had was V glitching out like a scarecrow when riding a motorcycle.

I kind of liked the launch state better build wise, as builds were way stronger back then. I had a Breakthrough sniper build that let me do like 12M damage through walls with a headshot before they even knew I was there.

Some of the 2.0 updates are really stupid and need to be modded out (like making skill doors scale with your level so every door in the game is harder to open if you go there later, and making you unable to remove mods from weapons).

Act 1 was fun. It got less fun after that as the new had worn off and the enemies feinting put a damper on the power fantasy.

UniFi is going to be the best for most people, maybe MikroTik if youre a network engineer. I have their Dream Router 7, and its fine for a little all-in-one box. Obviously if youre wired for Ethernet and have the cabling for access points, other options and some access points will be better.

They have access points with a 10 Gbps uplink (though that might require their expensive switch with 10 Gbps PoE) so WiFi 7 wont be bottlenecked.

It doesnt click in peoples brains, its an uncanny valley type thing.

My favorite instance of this is Gabriel Iglesias saying that people often asked him why he drank diet soda, and he said it was so he could eat regular cake.

Only reason I havent picked it up (aside from Nintendo games never fucking ever going on sale worth a damn) is the multiple routes. I really dont have the time to play all the games I want to play once, much less multiple times. Im also an OCD completionist so when I play a FE game I like to get every possible support and max out everyone on NG etc., and Im certainly not doing that 4 times or however many routes there are.

Got fixed ok but I'm a bit worried/confused. On a whim I went to firefox settings, and clicked on network settings. The tick mark was on "use system proxy settings" . I changed that to "no proxy" and suddenly videos are working just fine again (btw it turned out it was all videos on the browser, be it dailymotion or firefox that wouldn't play)

I'm a bit confused right now. First what is my system proxy settings and second was it always ticked like that, or was it a recent change. If so who changed it.

The extra weird thing is that this all happened after I recently updated firefox too. Or rather it updated since I had recently restarted/updated my pc after windows harassed me for the umpteenth time.

Could someone tell me what their settings say when they go to network settings? Does it say "no proxy" or use system?
Mine is on use system proxy, but by default, the system shouldnt have a proxy, so it should effectively end up as no proxy as long as there is no proxy defined in the network settings of your OS.
