The Main Goal:
Well if you’re browsing this subreddit then much like me, you were alone this weekend and I’m sure you’d like to change that as much as me. I won’t lie, I am going through a rough part of my life right now. It’s difficult for me to find the energy for anything at the moment and I’m just really seeking affection in general, anything that will give me a push. I don’t want to be that person who brings everyone down but I could really use someone to talk to right now. I’d really like to find someone who’s similar to me so much to the point that we do everything together and talk about everything while not having to pretend to be interested. I want someone with whom we can mutually spew our emotions onto and have those feelings reciprocated. Not an emotional punching bag, but an emotional teddy bear to hug and cuddle until everything feels better as many times as we need. There’s people who I’m sure have told you the same, they’ll be there no matter how many times you need the support, no matter how many times the insecurities and bad thoughts come back but they don’t mean it. I will be the exception, I’m not so ignorant to think some nice words and tales of relating to you will magically forever heal whatever ails you then get mad when you seek the same support again. Mental ailments are rarely temporary and I don’t care about someone because they’re perfect, caring about someone means being there no matter how many times they need you to be. It doesn’t feel like a chore, it doesn’t get old, and it never will.

(2.a)
What I'm Seeking:
I will upfront let you know if I’m clicking better with someone else or if you’re the one, I’m not here to tread the sea of fish or keep my options open, I’m here for one singular person.
(2.b)
Relationship:
A relationship is difficult for me right now, it’s been nearly half a year since I got out of my last relationship and the reasons for it ending are partially responsible for how I’ve been feeling and why it’s so hard for me to seek the comfort I so desperately crave. I will tell you about it but for the sake of not treating the entirety of the internet as my therapist, it’ll be in private. I really need the comfort of intimacy and the warmth of someone who cares. I'm not going to feel better if I just sulk and don’t move on. This is my attempt to get better, I’ll admit I’m not great right now and I don’t expect you to be either. If we can help each other heal, then I’d be more than happy :) A relationship isn’t just being there for when someone’s at their best. Even if a relationship is hard at the moment, I do want a life partner and I don’t want to be alone. Things aren’t going to get easier without you so I don’t want to hesitate. I view my other as an equal, I don’t like categorizing us into specific roles. We take care of each other and treat each other how we like to be treated, whatever that is, it's as simple as that. I don't care if you're "successful" or not, living simple lives with our days filled with love is the ultimate measure of success to me.
(3)
Personality:
(3.a)
On the Surface:
As you can tell I can be rather… stoic but that’s largely due to my current stressors, I truthfully am goofy and fun loving but I just can’t find it in me right now. I want to return to that but without someone to light up my world it’s been difficult to just have fun and enjoy stuff. I’m definitely more introverted, you won’t catch me at any parties or really outside at all. I definitely prefer being home though the occasional outing is not out of the question and one day I’d like to travel to other countries because I think that kind of perspective is important.
(3.b)
The Core of My Being:
I like being a spectator to it all and if we bear witness to humanity burning or its miraculous recovery, I want to watch it with you. I enjoy watching humanity advance, less so when it devolves but I want to watch it to the end nonetheless. I’m both a realist and someone who lives with my head in the clouds dreaming of scenarios or worlds that don’t exist. I’m saying that I enjoy a good narrative and can suspend my disbelief to enjoy something but you won’t catch me refusing vaccines or ignoring blatant facts for the sake of some pseudo science or witch doctor’s remedy. I’m an atheist but I do not rule out existence after death, not because I’m agnostic but because due to the nature of potentially infinite time at some point after how many googol years with a googol amount of 0s after that, something’s bound to replicate your consciousness perfectly at some point. It’s actually a really fascinating topic I like talking about. If infinite time and infinite possibilities exist, does non existence exist? Though that’s an awfully existentially dreadful thought process considering the ramifications of infinite existence and infinite possibilities during said infinite existence. I would say I’m confidently left leaning and I don’t think I could truly get along with anyone right leaning, at least America’s definition of right leaning. Left and right seems to have just become; do people deserve to suffer or do they deserve to live good lives? Being political is not something I expected to become but how can you not be when crimes against human rights are being passed on a daily basis and at the end of the day, everything’s political. Oftentimes I imagine the perfect moment as relaxing with my significant other playing games or cuddling in a cold room under blankets.
I value that special someone above all of the existential thoughts, the bad of the world, the good of the world, they practically become my world. So many worries wash away when I’m with them. I don’t know if that’s the defense mechanism my brain created to not feel bad 24/7 but if it is, I’m currently without it.
(3.c)
Insecurities:
I talk of philosophy and politics here but really I spend most of my time just playing games, watching stuff, and trying to not be sleep deprived. I’m also nowhere near as well spoken, heck sometimes I feel like my speech is broken. I won’t claim to be something I’m not, I sit at home while I complain about the world doing nothing about it wishing I had someone here with me. I’m not noble nor do I really want to be, I have morals I uphold but much like most other hypocrites I acknowledge that my comfortable life is built on the suffering of others without doing anything about it. Why? My sleep problems? Am I depressed? Is that why I have no energy to do anything? Do I just think nothing I could do could help? I can’t nail it down myself, maybe it’s a mix of everything, maybe I’m just a bad person. I have always told myself that if I had wealth I would help people but if I get that kind of wealth will I just become a wealth hoarder who tries to justify my riches as something I earned rather than something given to me through incredibly lucky circumstances? If I do help people is it because I’m a good person or out of guilt? Will I die alone? I feel like I drive everyone away with my clinginess, I get paranoid often and need reassurance often. It’s something I want to work on, something I’ve been trying to work on. Hearing that someone cares about me just never gets old. I value self awareness even if it’s painful.
(3.d)
Socializing:
I’m definitely a socially anxious/awkward mess, especially around strangers. I do feel a large amount of anxiety in public, people can’t tell by looking at my face since I kind of go stone faced in an attempt to block everything out but yeah you’ll notice that if we go out in public. Growing up my pediatrician said I was probably autistic, never got a formal diagnosis so that’s just great. But yeah that explains why I can’t make eye contact with people, I kinda just stare at the ground and avoid their gaze at all costs. A lot of these social struggles go away to a great degree once I know you for a bit but yeah I apologize for how terrible I am at socializing at first. Don’t let my social struggles fool you though, I love cuddling and being close with my person.
(3.e)
Sexuality:
I am a heterosexual male, though I’m not very masculine like at all. I may even be a bit feminine sometimes. Not that I believe any activity or manner of acting belongs to a gender but I don’t know how else to describe it. I’m definitely super affectionate and love it when my partner is too. I am open to dating demi people but I do have a libido so I don't think asexual would work out.
(4)
Interests:
(4.a)
Video Games:
As stated before, I do spend a lot of my time playing video games. It’s been hard lately with me having no energy but I really do want to play more games and have a good time playing them with you! I primarily play on PC though I do have a switch. I’m primarily into platform fighters, roguelikes, open world, survival, and sandbox games. As for single player story games, I enjoy watching them through twitch or youtube but for the most part I don’t play them myself. I’d watch you play them though!
Here’s a list of games we can play:
-Minecraft (Java)
-Risk of Rain 2
-Gunfire Reborn
-Roboquest
-7 Days to Die
-Phasmophobia
-Rust
-Unturned
-Bloons TD 6
-Platform fighters: Super Smash Bros. Melee, Slap City, Multiversus, Flash Party, Fraymakers
Whatever you want to play I’ll give it a shot! I will say that League bores me to death but I’ll play it for you :) I try to avoid MMOs, not because I don’t like them but because of how addicted I can get to them. I enjoy learning games in-depth so MMOs can be a fast track to addiction.
I recently got Kerbal Space Program 2 and ehhh not really worth it right now but hopefully later it will be? I’m super excited for Tears of the Kingdom! In the far off future I’m excited for Rivals of Aether 2 which is a platform fighter releasing in 2024, let me know of your most anticipated releases and I’ll see if I could play them with you!
Also I never got into FPS games but I could totally see myself playing like CoD with you or Escape From Tarkov. Any FPS really, I’m down.
I am a fan of Pokemon but with how things have been lately I don’t know how long that will last. Pixelmon is a common Pokemon mod I play for Minecraft if you want to play that! Also if I say I want to play something with you I mean it but there are often times when no matter how much I want to I'm just drained and can do little more than lay in bed so please don't think I'm making an excuse.
(4.b)
Science:
I really enjoy keeping up with the latest advances in pretty much everything, it could be biology, technology, astronomy, anything! I love seeing progression and I love talking about it! Really I could go on and on about what I’m obsessing about that day. I particularly love technology, ask me for my laptop specs I dare you. When I was little I always wanted to be a scientist of any kind but then insomnia and fear of college stuff hit me like a truck aaaand that’s the end of that dream.
(4.c)
Anime:
You got me, I like anime but I’d like to think my tastes are benign.
Here’s some of my favorites I can list from the top of my head:
- To Your Eternity
- Vinland Saga
- Spice and Wolf
- Re:Zero
- Mob Psycho
- Dr. Stone
- Attack on Titan
- Spy x Family
- My Hero Academia
- Ranking of Kings
- Demon Slayer
Okay I can go on and on but I will say I don’t like pointless fan service and the spamming of cliche anime moments. I mostly enjoy action and anything well animated if it doesn’t have a potato story. Heck Demon Slayer could be my top 3 out of season 2’s animation alone. I don’t watch slice of life often or romance but I would with you!
(4.d)
Misc:
I’m not going to go on and on about the tiniest little things when the main ones are covered but I’ll watch pretty much any show with you and anything really. I like random youtube videos that explain some kind of lore or mystery, sometimes mini documentaries too.
As for food I looove sushi and I’m a sucker for fast food. Okay and candy, definitely candy.
I used to play tennis but haven’t really had the opportunity nor friends to play it with and I’m way too socially anxious to seek it out. Also I will say that when we move to something like discord I type waaaay more casually. I’m not going to expect long paragraphs back and forth like we’re writing English papers for each other, I do enjoy long conversations but seriously don’t worry about having to put the utmost effort into every response, I just like making good first impressions I guess.
(5)
(5.a)
My Physical Characteristics:
I’m 5’8 (172cm), 128 pounds (58kg), with curly brown hair and blue eyes. I like keeping my hair long in the winter and cutting it in the summer. I’m pretty slim in general so if you’re looking for someone large, that’s not me. I don’t work out but my work is pretty physical so at least I’m not totally inactive. I don’t have the urge to work out or gain muscle but I do want to maintain my slim figure so if I start losing control of that I’ll work out. I like to keep my face shaved because I don’t think I look good with a beard/mustache so if you’re into those I apologize. I have an average amount of body hair? I’d prefer to be completely shaved but it’s easy to lose motivation with that battle, if you prefer shaved then I’d have no problem complying. Anyways here’s what I look like: https://imgur.com/a/MZZgf2t
(5.b)
My Physical Preferences:
Having physical preferences makes me feel shallow, if I could make myself not have them I would but unfortunately that’s now how that works. I don’t care if you’re shorter or taller than me and I don’t care if you weigh more or less than me. All I ask is that you’re slim-average weight. I would never ask for someone to be something I’m not. I don’t care about tattoos or piercings.**(6)Expectations of You (Relationship Only):**I am not looking for someone “exciting” or someone to “keep me on my toes” I’m not looking for someone to cater to my every whim or anything like that. I don’t care if you’re “boring” or if you aren’t “successful”. I know it’s a common thing for people to not want a “boring” relationship and to seek something argumentative or something with constant challenges but I just want to be with you. During the exciting times, the boring times, and everything in-between, all of it will be great with you! Maybe we do argue sometimes or maybe there will be challenges but that will never be something I purposefully seek out and I don’t want that to be something you seek out either. I will not play tricks on you and I will not play mind games, I expect the same from you. We all have personal measures of success we may or may not have lived up to but what I care about most is our commitment to each other. If we have each other we can get through tough times, near the ends of our lives I want us to look back and feel that this life together was worth more than anything. That’s not saying I want us to be haphazard, I don’t want us to make poor decisions for the sake of yolo and I want us to always be rational, especially with each other. I want you to be someone I can trust to make decisions and weigh the options with a level head, I’ll try my best to live up to the same for you. Most of all I want empathy, understanding, someone to feel the utmost comfort and trust in.
(7)
Living Situation:
Currently my life is pretty relaxed, I work 3 times a week as a night shift stocker. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my roommate but we’re looking to move into someplace larger by the end of the year if everything works out. The internet is weirdly great for Ohio too like I have fiber and later this year we’re supposed to be getting dedicated fiber so that’s neat. I’m not attached to Ohio so the ultimate goal living location wise is probably moving to a country that won’t send you into a lifetime of dealing with the repercussions from one medical emergency.
(8)
Deal Breakers:
Might as well make this simple and make it a list.
- Anti-vaxxers
- Unironically believing astrology
- Right wingers
- Hard drugs (occasional 420 and alcohol is fine, may even join you)
- Wanting children, there was a time when I was younger when I wanted children but with the state of the word that’s a definite no and I feel like I wouldn’t be able to handle the stress. I’d love a stress free life with as much time with you as possible.
- Homophobic
- Transphobic
- Racist
- Super Religious
- Don’t be a bigot and don’t deny facts.
(9)
Closing Remarks:
Well you made it, I was thinking that finding someone I’d be willing to put a lifetime of effort into at least required this much effort. If I think of anything more I’ll update the post. Also about timezones, it really doesn’t matter where in the world you are. I don’t have a sleep schedule and I have most of the week off from work so it really doesn’t matter.
I request that in your response you do put effort into it, it doesn’t have to be anywhere near as long as this but at least enough so I know that you read this and enough about you so I know why you saw potential compatibility. I will seriously read all of it and respond the best I can. I do also request a pic included in your response (sfw please) or one soon after we start talking to prove identity, I’ll send identity proving pics too. As long as this post is up, you can send a reply!

- Attack on Titan
- Spy x Family

Misc:
I’m not going to go on and on about the tiniest little things when the main ones are covered but I’ll watch pretty much any show with you and anything really. I like random youtube videos that explain some kind of lore or mystery, sometimes mini documentaries too.
As for food I looove sushi and I’m a sucker for fast food. Okay and candy, definitely candy.
I used to play tennis but haven’t really had the opportunity nor friends to play it with and I’m way too socially anxious to seek it out. Also I will say that when we move to something like discord I type waaaay more casually. I’m not going to expect long paragraphs back and forth like we’re writing English papers for each other, I do enjoy long conversations but seriously don’t worry about having to put the utmost effort into every response, I just like making good first impressions I guess.

(5.a)
My Physical Characteristics:
I’m 5’8 (172cm), 128 pounds (58kg), with curly brown hair and blue eyes. I like keeping my hair long in the winter and cutting it in the summer. I’m pretty slim in general so if you’re looking for someone large, that’s not me. I don’t work out but my work is pretty physical so at least I’m not totally inactive. I don’t have the urge to work out or gain muscle but I do want to maintain my slim figure so if I start losing control of that I’ll work out. I like to keep my face shaved because I don’t think I look good with a beard/mustache so if you’re into those I apologize. I have an average amount of body hair? I’d prefer to be completely shaved but it’s easy to lose motivation with that battle, if you prefer shaved then I’d have no problem complying. Anyways here’s what I look like: https://imgur.com/a/MZZgf2t

My Physical Preferences:
Having physical preferences makes me feel shallow, if I could make myself not have them I would but unfortunately that’s now how that works. I don’t care if you’re shorter or taller than me and I don’t care if you weigh more or less than me. All I ask is that you’re slim-average weight. I would never ask for someone to be something I’m not. I don’t care about tattoos or piercings.**(6)Expectations of You (Relationship Only):**I am not looking for someone “exciting” or someone to “keep me on my toes” I’m not looking for someone to cater to my every whim or anything like that. I don’t care if you’re “boring” or if you aren’t “successful”. I know it’s a common thing for people to not want a “boring” relationship and to seek something argumentative or something with constant challenges but I just want to be with you. During the exciting times, the boring times, and everything in-between, all of it will be great with you! Maybe we do argue sometimes or maybe there will be challenges but that will never be something I purposefully seek out and I don’t want that to be something you seek out either. I will not play tricks on you and I will not play mind games, I expect the same from you. We all have personal measures of success we may or may not have lived up to but what I care about most is our commitment to each other. If we have each other we can get through tough times, near the ends of our lives I want us to look back and feel that this life together was worth more than anything. That’s not saying I want us to be haphazard, I don’t want us to make poor decisions for the sake of yolo and I want us to always be rational, especially with each other. I want you to be someone I can trust to make decisions and weigh the options with a level head, I’ll try my best to live up to the same for you. Most of all I want empathy, understanding, someone to feel the utmost comfort and trust in.
(7)
Living Situation:
Currently my life is pretty relaxed, I work 3 times a week as a night shift stocker. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my roommate but we’re looking to move into someplace larger by the end of the year if everything works out. The internet is weirdly great for Ohio too like I have fiber and later this year we’re supposed to be getting dedicated fiber so that’s neat. I’m not attached to Ohio so the ultimate goal living location wise is probably moving to a country that won’t send you into a lifetime of dealing with the repercussions from one medical emergency.
(8)
Deal Breakers:
Might as well make this simple and make it a list.
- Anti-vaxxers
- Unironically believing astrology
- Right wingers
- Hard drugs (occasional 420 and alcohol is fine, may even join you)
- Wanting children, there was a time when I was younger when I wanted children but with the state of the word that’s a definite no and I feel like I wouldn’t be able to handle the stress. I’d love a stress free life with as much time with you as possible.
- Homophobic
- Transphobic
- Racist
- Super Religious
- Don’t be a bigot and don’t deny facts.

Closing Remarks:
Well you made it, I was thinking that finding someone I’d be willing to put a lifetime of effort into at least required this much effort. If I think of anything more I’ll update the post. Also about timezones, it really doesn’t matter where in the world you are. I don’t have a sleep schedule and I have most of the week off from work so it really doesn’t matter.
I request that in your response you do put effort into it, it doesn’t have to be anywhere near as long as this but at least enough so I know that you read this and enough about you so I know why you saw potential compatibility. I will seriously read all of it and respond the best I can. I do also request a pic included in your response (sfw please) or one soon after we start talking to prove identity, I’ll send identity proving pics too. As long as this post is up, you can send a reply!

FAQ
I live in Belize/Canada/Nicaragua/USA, why are you posting on a Saturday?!Because I'm writing this from Europe in the future where it's already Sunday. Timezones be crazy.
Why are there a bunch of non-board games in the board game list?
Because the Tabletop games category on Kickstarter includes anything remotely related to board games and sometimes things slip through my filters.
Why is this future award winning board game and literal saviour of humanity missing from your list?
Sometimes my filters get a bit overzealous and discard actually valid projects. If you feel something is missing for this reason, leave a comment and I'll add it (maybe).
Can I donate all my money to you?
No
Can you help me promote my game?
Please no. I make lists. Nothing more.
Your list is full of errors and now my vacuum cleaner sucks!
Indeed, this fine piece of code runs purely on meatballs and schnapps, so anything can happen. Leave a comment and I'll see what I can do.

2023.05.28 12:15 MisterEmbedded My Guide To Get Into Computer Programming
Intro
Hi, I'm AdityaRaj, I'm a 17 Year Old Who Loves Programming, And Here's My Guide To Get Into Computer Programming.Programming Is Surprisingly Quite Easy Once You Understand Few Basic Stuff, Like Memory, CPU, What Is Actually Happening In The CPU, Etc Etc, "Crash Course: Computer Science" is a awesome series which taught me ALOT about computers, and believe me it will make your life easier.
I'm 17 so please go easy on me if there's an error or mistake, i'm learning like you all too! and i would be more than glad if you point out any mistake as it will help everyone who's reading this.
What is Lower & High Level In Computers?
Well Lower & High Level Basically Signifies How Close Something Is To "Bare-Metal" Or How Close Something Is To What The Computers Understand Directly.The More Lower Level The More That Thing Is Close To What Computers Understand. See Computers Are Literally Just Rocks Made To Do Some Stuff Repeatedly, They Are Like Your Kitty Who Don't Even Understand Basic Maths.
Computers Do 3 Things In Their Entire Life, They Fetch The Instruction They Have To Execute, They Decode The Instruction They Fetched & Then They Execute That Instruction, That's Literally All Your Computer Ever Does, But This Becomes Very Powerful Because Modern Computers Can Do Such Stuff Like 2400000000 Times Every Second, And Gaming Computers Can Do Such Stuff At Like 400,00,00,000 Times Every Second, That's Like 400 Crore Times Every Second.
What Operating System To Choose?
Programming doesn't really depend on Operating System, if you're on windows then it's fine, if you're on mac it's fine, if you're on linux that's perfect.In my opinion Linux provides you the best environment to develop any kind of software, and it is the recommended OS for writing software.
that doesn't mean you should quit using your existing Operating System, but learning linux will help you alot, there are jobs that specifically hire people who are masters in Linux, not to mention the fact that basically anything can run linux with a HUGE Performance gain.
in starting i will say just use whatever you have but try to learn linux side by side too!
What Programming Language To Choose?
It's Very Important What Programming Language You Choose, It Will Kind Of Decide That What Field In Programming You Will Be Doing.- Python
- JavaScript
JavaScript is comparatively harder than Python, but it's use cases have been just increasing and increasing, JavaScript code can run in your browser, basically 90% of the Reddit is basically just JavaScript code.
JavaScript can run directly in your computer using a runtime called NodeJS or Deno, the Discord Web App, Mobile & Desktop App Is Also Written In Mostly JavaScript.
Using JavaScript You Can Go Into Web Development, Mobile App Development, Desktop App Development.
- C/C++/Assembly
i learned C, C is a programming language that's 51 years old! basically it was a "revolutionary" language, almost everything you see in the modern world has it's roots to C.
you can basically do anything with C, and this is the language i love alot... people say it's not for beginners but it's not the case really, if you understand how computers work, like even an overview then you won't have much problems in C.
with C you have endless possibilities and not to mention it's one of the fastest programming languages out there. if you want to write efficient, fast software use C.
C++ is also a language which was developed to extend C's capabilities by adding more feature, and C & C++ are often used in the same projects...
Linux Kernel is written in C, your favorite web browser is written in C & C++, Android Phone's App Use Java Which Has It's Roots To C.
In Many Cases C is Also Used With Assembly, assembly is basically a Human readable version of the ACTUAL code that runs on your computers, so it's like the lowest level programming language and FASTEST too.
C++ is used alot in Game Development, games made in Unreal Engine use C++, GTA Vice City was written in C++ too!
- Swift
- Java
- C#
no matter how much people may hate or bully this language, this language is very popular among Windows Developers as Microsoft recommends this language to develop Windows Applications.
C# is also used in Game Development, Mainly In Game Engines Like Unity & Godot.
- Verilog, SystemVerilog or VHDL
FPGA's are one of the amazing stuff in technology. FPGAs are quite complex piece of hardware which you can use to design custom logic circuits.
basically our CPUs are made up of many MANY logic ciruits, these logic circuits determine the behavior of a particular CPU, you can basically create such logic circuits without having to touch a wire, you can program a FPGA to behave that way.
and as complex it sounds, sometimes it's quite more complex than that and requires alot of knowledge about how computers work and what you want the circuit to do.
What Career For What Language?
- The salaries mentioned are per-annum (yearly) and not monthly
- The salaries are what i found online, they may vary.
- The salaries mentioned is what offered in USA, and sadly they are quite low in India. (thanks to u/Accomplished-Toe-479 for mentioning this)
- Embedded Systems
this field specializes in writing and optimizing software for computers that aren't your normal PC, Mobile Or Something, these are often very low-powerful computers that are used in stuff like your:
- Digital Camera all those DSLRS and Stuff
- Your Calculators & Your Digital watches
- Your television & your setup-boxes like that tata-sky thing
- or the computers in cars which detect how far the vehicle behind is, or the ECU in the car which decides how much fuel & air goes depending on the temprature load and etc
- or the computers in an Train, like the engine which the train driver drives, or airplanes, all sorts of like passenger or fighter planes
- Web Developer
if you're doing web app, desktop app & mobile app development in JavaScript the figures will be quite same.
- App Developer
if you're an Apple App Developer using Swift language you can earn like on an average $135,804 (₹1,12,12,630) if you have skills.
i don't know much about desktop app developer salaries but you can earn like $84,500 (₹69,76,725) on an average.
- Game Developer
and while the above mentioned figures are for when working for someone, if you decide to make your own team or work solo, the figure can go even higher if you make a game that has a huge return of investment.
in the start i think it's fine to work for someone to get the much needed experience and then you can work on your own game. but solely working on your game can be risky as if the game doesn't perform well you may earn even lower than what you earned by working for someone.
this isn't a guide about getting into game development but if you want to become a video game artist i'd say start with 3D Modelling Skills & Pixel Art, both of them aren't required. a programming language like C++, Java Or C# is required to if you want to program the game too or you can just hire someone or just work with someone you know.
- Artificial Intelligence
- FPGA Engineer
these jobs have HIGH demand but because of the skill-set they require.
What Programming Language/Career you should go into?
i think you the person asking this question has the answer. every language/career has different difficult, adventure, salary and stress, and you should only go into the one in which YOU are interested in.i want to go into embedded systems because those small computers & programming them is what attracts me, the salary is quite decent too, the stress it gives is almost none since it is what i am interested in.
any idiot can get into programming for the juicy money, but to actually earn what the professionals in this field earn you'll have to be passionate about your field & job.
and not only that but you'll have to get a degree too, because yes you can learn most of the stuff online but colleges, the good ones especially teach alot of stuff that you may not find online and not the mention that actually getting the job will be alot easier since the company knows you studied in the good college thus you have the skill they need.
Resources
here are some resources you might like to get into programming:- Crash Course: Computer Science - Literally almost everything about how computers work.
- ComputerPhile - an awesome channel for computer related content
- BroCode - Has Good Content On Programming Overall
- FireShip - Awesome Programming Content, But Overall focused to Web Development

Outro
that's really all i have to say, feel free to ask me anything you want to, don't feel that you'll sound dumb or something, i was an complete ass in the starting too (i still am xD).also thanks to everyone appreciating me! lol it's alot to take in.
2023.05.28 12:00 AutoModerator Weekly Reminder: Rules and FAQ - May 28, 2023 (Now with updates!)
Below you will find a weekly reminder of our Rules and partial FAQ. It's definitely a long read, but it's worth your time, especially if you are new to the community, or dropping by as a result of a link you found elsewhere. We periodically revise our rules, this weekly notice will help keep you informed of any changes made.
NOTE: These rules are guidelines. Some moderation discretion is to be expected.

NOTE: These rules are guidelines. Some moderation discretion is to be expected.
Community Rules
1. Kindness Matters
Advise, don't criticize.- Post with empathy, thoughtfulness, and constructive commentary rather than judgment. Don't be an asshole.
- Name-calling, slurs (including gender or race based slurs), and insults towards other community members will not be tolerated. Do not attack others for their personally held values, custody situation, marital status, physical distance from stepkids, or economic status; or on the basis of race, sex, sexual orientation, age, religion, or ethnicity.
- No name-calling toward children, including the above-mentioned insults or the term "skids", or terms such as "mini-wife" or "mini-husband."
- Comments advocating spanking or any mention of wanting to harm children are not allowed.
- This is a support sub, not a judgement sub, assholes are not tolerated. Comments with terms used in other subs to pass judgement on assholes will be removed.
2. No Drama
This is a support sub.- Bickering, nitpicking, and thread derailment will not be tolerated and will be subject to removal at moderator discretion.
- Do not repeatedly badger a poster demanding answers, or refuse to acknowledge an answer that's already been given.
- Do not use sensitive issues from past posts (either from this sub or other subs) to attack another user, as we are all discussing vulnerable topics.
- Crossposting anything from /stepparents to any other subreddit might result in a ban and may result in the original thread being locked. Brigading our sub will result in an immediate ban.
3. Report, Don’t Rant
No backseat modding.- If you see someone breaking the rules, report the post or comment to the mods rather than engaging them in an argument. Failure to do so may be subject to comment removal at moderator discretion.
- No meta posts complaining about rude comments, DMs, or general sub issues.
- If you think someone is a troll or previously banned user, either use the report function or message the mods to direct their attention to the issue.
4. No Naming & Shaming
No userpings or links.- Tagging/pinging users or other subreddits in an attempt to bully, harass, or complain will not be tolerated. Do not tag other subs, ever.
- If you want to complain about another subreddit being hostile to stepparents, do not name the subreddit. "Other parenting/advice/judgement subs" will suffice.
5. No Platitudes
Nobody knew what they were getting into.- Comments like "You knew what you were getting into", "Love them, love their kids!", "They're a package deal!" and "You have to love them like your own!" will be removed.
- Comments suggesting that OP is not cut out for stepparenting will be removed at moderator discretion.
- Comments like "This is just a part of parenting, deal with it!" will be removed at moderator discretion.
6. No Trolling
We have zero tolerance for trolls.- This is a support sub. Our subscribers do not have the time, nor inclination, to provide support to internet trolls. Posts that are suspected to be trolling attempts will be immediately removed, and the poster banned.
- Concern trolling, devil's advocating, gish-galloping, sealioning, and general asshattery are subject to immediate removal and banning without warning or notice.
- Any attempt to circumvent the ban by creating a new username will be reported to reddit admins and possibly result in account suspension.
7. No Personally Identifiable Information
Use discretion when posting.- We highly recommend using a separate account for support subs to help prevent being doxxed. Do not post any information that may allow others to figure out your identity.
- Do not post photos of children, or any other photo that could be used to identify you or another user on the sub.
- Any image that contains a name or other identifying information should have the name or identifying information blurred out. This includes drawings, notes, and screenshots.
- Do not link to social media or any articles/blogs where you or another user on the sub is mentioned by name.
8. No More than 2 Posts per 24 hours
Use the daily threads.- We are not a huge sub, but we are no longer a small sub. If you have multiple grievances to air, use the daily discussion threads instead of multiple posts.
9. Follow Reddiquette
Remember the human.- Adhere to the same standards of behavior online that you follow in real life.
- Read it in full here.
- Downvoting is reserved for comments that don’t contribute, and shouldn't be used to indicate disagreement.
- If you believe someone is in violation of the subreddit rules, please either use the report function or message the mods to direct their attention to the issue.
- Suspected brigading will be reported to reddit admins.
10. No Porn, Spam, Blogs, or Research Studies/Surveys Without Mod Approval
Just don't.- This is a SFW subreddit. Posting pornography will result in immediate post removal and permanent ban.
- Advertising on the subreddit (outside of Reddit's own advertising) is not allowed.
- No personal blog posts are allowed without express moderator permission.
- No advertising without prior mod approval.
- No asking for money/posting fundraisers/etc.
- For links to parenting research studies or surveys, please message the mods for permission before posting.
11. Disputes in Modmail Only
Don't argue with the mods on the sub.- Any issues specifically related to how a mod is moderating should be addressed to the full moderating team via mod mail. This ensures that all mods are aware of any concerns and prevents disintegration of the topic thread at hand.
- This means to do not message or send chat requests to individual mods. All discussion and complaints about mod actions need to be done in mod mail ONLY. Failure to follow this rule can result in an immediate permanent ban.
- Comments in threads asking about mod decisions are subject to removal without notice.
12. Moderator Actions
We aren't kidding.- Users are expected to know the rules before posting. If you are warned or banned for violating the rules, ignorance is not an excuse.
- Moderators will remove posts and comments and/or lock threads in accordance with the rules above. Typically this happens when threads have gone off-topic in a way that is not productive for the OP, or comments overall have become contentious or disrespectful.
- If a poster continues to argue or to willfully violate these rules, temporary and permanent ban procedures will be followed. Any attempts to avoid or bypass temporary bans will result in a permanent ban. User bans will not be discussed in the sub. Questions posted about user bans are subject to removal and the poster subject to warning/ban procedures. The mod team will not discuss a specific user ban with anyone other than the user involved.
- New accounts are subject to manual approval until they are no longer deemed "new" by the mod team. This helps to weed out trolls and ban evaders.
- We rely on Automoderator to scan for specific words and phrases that are not welcome here and notify the mod team to review the comment or post. This includes slurs of any type and platitudes such as "Love them as your own!"
- The mod team uses a combination of blacklisting and banning when dealing with trolls.
- We employ the use of a bot that automatically bans anyone who comments in subs that have historically harassed our users. If you are picked up by the bot for telling trolls to get fucked, reach out via mod mail and we'll get you sorted out.
- The rules above as well as ban procedures are considered guidelines only; some deviation may be necessary on a case by case basis and/or at the mod team's discretion.
13. Ban Procedure
These actions are at moderator discretion.- Pornography will result in an automatic permanent ban.
- Extremely egregious content will result in an immediate permanent ban.
- You may receive a 7 or 30 day temporary ban for first and second rule violations, depending upon severity.
- Continued rule violations will result in a permanent ban.
- Willful attempts to avoid or bypass temporary bans will result in a permanent ban.
- We recognize the reddit site-wide rules of using alt names to get around bans and will ban those as well as report them to reddit admins.
FAQ - About the Rules
What does Kindness Matters mean?
- Shortest version? Don't be an asshole. People come here for support and advice, they do not come here to be yelled at or told they are the reason everything is going sideways. There are ways to point out that someone may want to do some reflection on their own actions and reactions without being an asshole about it.
- The purpose of this subreddit is to provide support and a sense of belonging for struggling stepparents. We aren't here to pass judgement, but rather to offer support, empathy, and constructive commentary. That does not include "hard truths" or "tough love." Stepparents get enough of that in every other subreddit, we're not passing it out here. Be respectful.
- Remember, most people aren't going to come to a sub like this when everything is going great and everyone is getting along. People are coming here when they are down, when they are feeling defeated and stretched to the limit. Kicking someone when they are down is shitty behavior and we don't tolerate it.
What about being kind to the kids?
- "Won't somebody think of the children?" Pearl clutching isn't needed here. If you read the Kindness Matters rule closely, you will see that there is a clause in there about name calling children. We don't allow it. We also don't allow people rolling in telling OP that they feel sorry for their stepkids because OP is feeling overwhelmed and overloaded.
- If anyone is advocating slapping, spanking, or any other form of violence, report the comment immediately. We do not advocate violence towards children of any sort. The mod team does not advocate any sort of physical punishment at any time.
- Venting about behaviors is not the same as insulting the kids. However, if you see a post or comment where kids are being name called or dragged to the point of no return, use the report button. We try to catch the posts and remove them before they hit the sub, but we cannot see every comment without your help. Use the report button to bring problematic comments to our attention. Don't engage in a war of words on our subreddit.
Why is this sub such an echo chamber?
- Not allowing contributors to pile on and tell OP that they are a terrible human being who should never be around children does not equate to being an echo chamber. Many contributors here will offer OP suggestions to help them work through their resentments and frustrations, and the most egregious situations are called out. We simply ask that it be called out with respect.
- If you feel that a post is simply too much for you to handle without following the rules, move on to another post.
- If you believe that a post itself is crossing the rules report it. If the mod team has approved the post, it is because the mod team believes that the OP needs help from the community or needs a moment to vent and move on from their vent. That does not give you license to pile on disrespectfully. Unless it is proven that OP is a bot, assume that OP is a human being with real thoughts and feelings and has posted from a place of vulnerability.
Why can't I tell OP that they are an asshole?
- Because this isn't a judgement sub. We aren't AITA, we don't want to be AITA.
- Comments with terms like YTA, NTA, ESH, NAH will be removed.
- Don't start your posts with INFO either. We generally recognize that as a fishing attempt for more information to pass judgement on OP, and again, we are not a judgment sub.
But OP asked if they were an asshole?!
- Their post somehow got past our automoderator. Just use the report button. We will address it with OP.
- If you've asked if you are an asshole, a-hole, a*hole, a**hole, whatever, don't be surprised if your post is removed without warning. This isn't a judgment sub. If you want judgment, you know where to go.
What is a gendered slur?
- While it seems that everyone understands what racist slurs are, people struggle understanding the concept of gendered slurs. Generally speaking, we are talking about derogatory nouns or verbs that are used to negatively describe people or situations based on gendered terms.
- We've gone back and forth on this a few times, and the truth is, we get it, it's your safe space and you want to be able to vent about BM/BD how you want to vent about them, without us telling you how to vent about them. Fair enough. Vent away. What we are going to stick to here how people are referring to other users and to stepchildren.
- Examples that are not allowed:
- "My SD is such a little bitch."
- "She dresses/acts like a slut."
- "My SS acts like a pussy."
- "My SS is such a beta male."
- "You are all fucking whores."
- "Any dude who is raising some sluts kids is a cuck!"
- "Little Lord Fauntleroy over here thinking he runs the house!"
- "You're just the bangnanny, get used to it."
- Don't call users here names, don't call stepchildren names.
- Masking the term with asterisks or other neat little tricks might get you around the bot, but if we see it, we're removing it and quite possibly giving you a time out. The intended word is still there and you deliberately tried to skate the rule.
- As there is not enough space to list every term that is offensive and does not belong, nor every situation in which term or phrase may be allowable in context, this rule is enforced based on moderator discretion.
Seriously? You are the language police now?
- We're here to talk about stepparenting. And we would like for that to happen in a respectful way. Attacking each other doesn't help. Belittling stepchildren draws in trolls who don't understand your frustration, all they see is an evil stepmonster talking shit on the internet about a poor, innocent baby. Yes, even if that "poor, innocent baby" just robbed you blind and set fire to the house on their way out the door. That's just how it goes.
- We are aware that this is a relatively new rule and a lot of older posts and comments contain a lot of problematic language, including some from mods themselves. We are growing and evolving, and rules change as the sub grows and evolves.
What does No Drama really mean?
- Pretty much what it says, do not bring drama from other subs into this sub. Do not engage in vote brigades. Do not try to incite other subscribers to riot in a different sub. Don't follow posters into this sub from other subs to continue to harass them. Do not badger someone or derail threads. Do not harass community members because you don't agree with them. There's enough drama in the daily lives of subscribers, more isn't needed.
What is thread derailment?
- When a comment chain has devolved to the point where all you are doing is arguing back and forth with someone about the same thing over and over again, you have derailed the thread. Also known as bickering. It's what children do. We assume if people are in a stepparent role they are adults. We expect you to act like it.
- If you aren't a stepparent, or in a stepparenting role, consider that perhaps this subreddit isn't for you. If you want to participate, do so with respect. Thread derailment, arguing, bickering, and nitpicking are not allowed.
But what if they didn't answer my question?
- No one has to answer your questions. This is a support sub, not an inquisition. Jumping on a bandwagon with "OP is evading the question" in a 20 comment long chain is the epitome of thread derailment. You'll find more information about trolling below and how this might be considered such.
Why am I being silenced? I'm just asking for a back and forth!
- Thread derailment, badgering, and nitpicking are considered harassment. Continued harassment of either community members or mods will get you banned.
Why can't I look at someone's post history and comment about it?
- No mod in the history of this sub has ever once said post histories are forbidden. What we do frown upon is using someone's post history to attack, belittle, or otherwise harass someone.
- Example Post: "My stepkid's mom really hates me. How can I make this better?"
- Okay: "Based on the timeline and your post history, it looks like this may have started as an affair. Unfortunately there's going to be outstanding issues for a long time due to that. Try focusing on yourself and how you can move forward without worrying about how someone else feels about you."
- Not Okay: "Holy shit! You were the OW! What the hell do you expect, homewrecker?!"
- Example Post: "I am completely overloaded and feeling very down about myself."
- Okay: "In your post history you mentioned that your spouse wasn't really helping around the house. Has that changed at all?"
- Not Okay: "LOL, you already got the answers you need in your post on relationships. You are stupid for sticking with your lazy spouse."
Why can't we crosspost stuff to other subs?
- We can't stop you from doing so. The problem isn't that something has been crossposted, it's when the community that it's been crossposted to feels the need to come over here and harass OP. When we see that happening, we lock the post and start passing out bans. If you did the crossposting, you'll be banned. If you participated in the brigading, you'll be banned.
What if it's my own post?
- Again, we can't stop you from doing so. We prefer that you don't technically crosspost, but rather just copy and paste your post. Why? Because inevitably the above will happen. Redditors from other subs will follow you back to /stepparents and start attacking users here. It just happens.
What is "brigading"?
- Reddit defines vote manipulation and brigading as follows:
- Using multiple accounts, voting services, or any other software to increase or decrease vote scores.
- Asking people to vote up or down certain posts, either on Reddit itself or through social networks, messaging, etc. for personal gain.
- Forming or joining a group that votes together, either on a specific post, a user's posts, posts from a domain, etc.
- We, along with pretty much every other subreddit that has ever had to deal with this nonsense, further define brigading as this: You saw a post on another sub that linked to our sub either via a link in a comment or a crosspost. It was basically saying something along the lines of "OMG, check out these assholes over on /stepparents! They literally hate all their stepkids!" And then you and your friends come over and start hammering on OP and telling OP how much they suck. Congrats, you have just participated in a brigade.
What is this whole Report, Don't Rant thing about?
- If you see a post or comment that breaks the rules, instead of engaging, report it. When you report it, it sends notification to the mod team. We will act on it where appropriate. Engaging with bad faith users may result in your comments being removed. If you repeatedly do so, you may end up being banned.
What if I see an obvious troll?
- Report it.
What if they are being really mean in comments?
- Report it.
What if they are harassing me in private messages?
- Step 1: Report them to admins. You can report harassment to reddit by using this link or send a DM to reddit admins. Include the link to the DM, admins can see your inbox and providing a direct link is helpful for them to weed out bad actors.
- Step 2: Block the person so they cannot directly contact you again.
- Step 3: Send us a mod mail and let the mod team know. Tell us who they are and what they said, send us a screenshot if you can - admins can see your DMs, mods can't. We'll take action where necessary by banning from the sub if they aren't already banned.
What do you mean by No Naming & Shaming?
- Just as we prefer to not be linked to or crossposted from, we do not allow linking to or calling out other subs by name. If you see something you want to share, say it's a hot post that has hit the front page and a stepparent is being absolutely flayed, just refer to it as "that hot post that hit the front page." If you want to complain about other places in general, "other parenting/advice/judgement subs" will suffice. Absolutely under no circumstances should you link to anywhere else.
I can't link to other subs?
- Do not directly link to another sub. (e.g.: "/insertsubnamehere is ridiculously hostile to stepparents!")
- Do not name other subs. (e.g.: "I won't link to it directly, but insertsubnamehere is ridiculously hostile to stepparents!")
- Do not abbreviate other subs. (e.g.: "I know that ISNH is ridiculously hostile to stepparents!")
I can't ping other users?
- Do not summon another user with a username ping/tag. (e.g.: "insertusernamehere was being an asshole.")
- If you are agreeing with someone, it is okay to link to them. (e.g.: "I agree with insertusernamehere, you need to take a couple of steps back and reflect on this.")
What does No Platitudes mean?
- Sanctimonious, overused clichés that grossly oversimplify the stepparenting experience are neither wanted nor allowed here. We have all heard it a thousand times before, we don't need to hear it again. It's not nearly as insightful and wise as some would like to think.
Why don't you people understand it's a package deal?
- Any comment that suggests that OP should have known what they were getting involved with, or that they needed to understand that the kids were part of some package they needed to accept before signing up for marriage is subject to immediate removal.
- This is one of the most insensitive things you can say to a stepparent. Most stepparents were aware of the children, but they were probably not aware of all of the family dynamics.
Why can't you just love them like they are your own?
- Demanding that a stranger you do not know love children that are not biologically theirs as if they were theirs can be incredibly damaging to someone who is already in a vulnerable situation. Any comment that falls along these lines will be removed.
What do you mean by No Trolling? I was just...
- No means no. No trolling. No pretending to be a stepparent and then whipping out the Greatest Hits Bingo Card of The Worst Stepparent in the History of Stepparents. We see you. We've seen you a thousand times.
What does "concern trolling", "gish-galloping", and "sealioning" have to do with stepparenting? This isn't a debate sub, why are you using debate terms?
- That's absolutely right, this isn't a debate sub. And yet, here we are, day after day, having to defend ourselves against this sort of thing. So, enough. No more. Usage of any of these things will get you banned.
What is "Concern Trolling?"
- A concern troll is someone who disingenuously visits sites of an opposing ideology to disrupt conversation by offering unwanted advice on how to solve problems which do not really exist.
- Example Post: OP expresses concern that she will feel, and possibly act, differently towards her stepchildren after her husband decides that no, he doesn't want anymore children after all.
- Example Concern Troll pulled from actual mod mail after their comment was removed: "Possible child abuse claims need to be sorted out well before whatever empathy you believe the OP was looking for."
What is a "Devil's Advocate"?
- "I'm just playing devil's advocate here, but have you considered that maybe BM is just really tired and needs a break, too?" BM has dozens of different mom based subs alone on reddit she can complain on, this sub is for stepparents. The stepparent doesn't need to consider that maybe BM is just really tired and needs a break.
"Gish-galloping?" What does that even mean?
- The Gish Gallop is the fallacious debate tactic of drowning your opponent in a flood of individually-weak arguments in order to prevent rebuttal of the whole argument collection without great effort. The Gish Gallop is a conveyor belt-fed version of the on the spot fallacy, as it's unreasonable for anyone to have a well-composed answer immediately available to every argument present in the Gallop.
And "sealioning?" What's that?
- Sealioning involves jumping into a conversation with endless polite, reasonable questions and demands for answers, usually of entry-level topics far below the actual conversation (e.g. "please prove sexism exists"). This tactic differs little from harassment; instead of discussion, the point is to derail discussion, receive criticism (for their ignorance) so as to look like a victim, or to make someone feel overwhelmed and quit talking.
Who gets to define what is considered asshattery?
- The mod team, of course! If we feel that comments are out of line, are trolling, are leading up to a fight or "just asking questions", we are going to remove them and most likely ban the offender.

You may have questions on how to ease the transition for your partner. However, please keep in mind that this community was not created for you. It was created for your partner or your ex's partner.

What the heck are all these acronyms? I'm confused!
- Check out the Common Acronyms wiki page. We try to keep this updated as new terms are introduced to the sub.
Why aren't my posts or comments showing up?
- New posters and accounts go through a waiting period before their posts will show in the sub and the comments on posts automatically. During the new account approval period the mod team will check posts to be sure you aren't attempting to circumvent a ban with a shiny new account. Please be patient while the timer runs down on your "new" status and the mod team approves your posts and responses.
Why was my comment removed?
- Comments are removed when they do not follow the rules of the sub. These rules are published in several places for your reading pleasure.
- Comments are removed at moderator discretion. In some cases your comment may be removed while another remains up. If you find this to be the case, and you believe the comment to be violating the rules, instead of arguing with mods or demanding they remove the additional comments, just report it.
This comment/post is really offensive! Why is it still up?
- All moderators are volunteers and have busy real lives. Sometimes things get past us. The best thing you can do is report anything you find offensive or inflammatory. It's the quickest and most reliable way of alerting us to an issue.
I've received a hurtful/unwanted PM from someone about my recent post. What should I do?
- If you receive an unwanted/hurtful PM from a name you don't recognize, please report it to Reddit Admins using our handy pre-populated form. Be sure to include the permalink to the message. We've been dealing with a few unhappy folks who like to attack stepparents, and reporting it to the admins is the only way to make it stop.
What are the general moderator guidelines?
- Users are expected to know the rules before posting. If you are warned or banned for violating the rules, ignorance is not an excuse.
- Moderators will remove posts and comments and/or lock threads in accordance with the rules above. Typically this happens when threads have gone off-topic in a way that is not productive for the OP, or comments overall have become contentious or disrespectful.
- If a poster continues to argue or to willfully violate these rules, temporary and permanent ban procedures will be followed. Any attempts to avoid or bypass temporary bans will result in a permanent ban. User bans will not be discussed in the sub. Questions posted about user bans are subject to removal and the poster subject to warning/ban procedures. The mod team will not discuss a specific user ban with anyone other than the user involved.
- New accounts are subject to manual approval until they are no longer deemed "new" by the mod team. This helps to weed out trolls and ban evaders.
- We rely on Automoderator to scan for specific words and phrases that are not welcome here and notify the mod team to review the comment or post. This includes slurs of any type and platitudes such as "Love them as your own!"
- The mod team uses a combination of blacklisting and banning when dealing with trolls.
- We employ the use of a bot that automatically bans anyone who comments in subs that have historically harassed our users. If you are picked up by the bot for telling trolls to get fucked, reach out via mod mail and we'll get you sorted out.
- The rules above as well as ban procedures are considered guidelines only; some deviation may be necessary on a case by case basis and/or at the mod team's discretion.
I've been wrongly banned/Why can't I comment here?
- Due to an influx of harassment from users with specific user histories, we have employed a user history ban bot as described above. If you think this has affected you and wish to appeal, please message the mods.
Why was I banned without warning?
- There are numerous reasons that the mod team might opt to move perm banning without warning. Message the moderators if you have specific questions.

· Ammo economy (The ratio of the amount of ammo needed to eliminate threats and selling excess ammo)
· Synergy with stasis & kinesis

· Synergy between other guns is NOT considered

S Tier – Overpowered
A Tier – Strong
B Tier – Good

The differences between some of the weapons are very close but there are some factors that puts it higher in my honest opinion. I have played with all the weapons on the highest difficulty (hard/impossible).
In 7th place we have the Pulse Rifle (Fits the lore since you need delimb to neutralize Necro-morphs)
Weaknesses
· Other weapons does it’s job better
· The alt-fire does not benefit from damage upgrades
· Only has 1 upgrade to boost firing rate, the special about 23% increase
· Consumes a lot of ammo to delimb/kill enemies even when upgraded
· Because it needs a lot ammo, this makes selling pulse rifle rounds NOT worth (if you are using it as a main weapon)

· Can only place 2 proxy mines at once
Strengths

Strength
· Perhaps it’s greatest strength is it’s ability to crowd control, guaranteed knock down on primary fire and can ground any enemy except bosses with its gravity well
· Gravity well perfect for grouping enemies up for a deadly combo
· Primary fire can hit multiple targets and have a wide area of effect
· Gravity well is a good alternative if you run out of stasis

2023.05.28 10:12 ThrowRA12n I (29m) am now questioning my relationship with partner (25f) after trivial chore argument
Hi all,
This is long so tldr: I’m now questioning everything because of a trivial argument about the washing machine not starting. Gf constantly makes me feel like I’m in the wrong, speaks in absolutes constantly and goes from 0-100 in just about every argument resulting in cold shoulder treatment etc. She has gotten fed up with every job she’s been in since I’ve known her despite them being supportive of her, offering promotions, she will moan and complain about it all day every day until the weekend. Her road rage is something to behold, small delays, minor inconveniences are all triggers and she is guilty of causing all these things herself.
So, as the title suggests, my girlfriend has quite a temper on her and it’s usually over very trivial things. I want to preface this by saying she has by no means been physically abusive to anyone, myself included. We have been together for 2 and a half years and live together with our dog.
I have big time ADHD, it causes quite a lot of arguments because I struggle to go between tasks, I forget things that I’ve started etc, the usual things people like me experience. She is adamant that she ‘understands’ this but if something isn’t done around the house that she’s requested, it’s on for young and old, cold shoulder treatment, dismissive attitude toward me for hours. I have mentioned to write me lists to help but that hasn’t been done. She will often say things like “if you were going to do it, you would have already done it”. This really grinds my gears as that’s not the case. Similar things like this are said all the time. I really do try, I want to do these things but sometimes it just slips my mind. The most recent example was last night where I put the washing on, powder in, pressed the start button but apparently it didn’t start and I hadn’t realised. She goes to check on it while I’m BBQing dinner and comes back to me with a very passive aggressive “Thanks for putting the washing on”. Wondering what she was on about I questioned it and sure enough it hadn’t started and now she’s frustrated, I apologise by saying “Sorry for trying to do something nice”, which I acknowledge is passive aggressive as well but I felt justified at the time. Fast forward a few hours when she finally decides to speak to me and she tells me that this happens ALL the time and she’s sick of it and brings up things that haven’t been done all week to justify her pov. I personally do not understand why a simple “hey babe, the washing machine didn’t start could you please do it again”, wouldn’t suffice, it’s no trouble and there’s no conflict. I do plenty during the week, i do the dishwasher, mow lawns, do the bins, groceries, hell I even fill up her car for her sometimes. These get overlooked because she goes from 0-100 in the blink of an eye which drives me nuts because I’m very patient.
Now don’t get me wrong, this seems trivial overall but incidents like this consistently happen and I feel like I’m constantly doing the wrong thing.
She loves to speak in absolutes which drives me mental. E.g I will have taken out the rubbish the last 10 times in a row, she’ll do it twice and then it becomes “you never take out the rubbish” which is factually incorrect, this again also applies to many aspects of our lives and she refuses to accept otherwise when discussed. Just the other day she said I didn’t feed the dog when I did it right under her nose, had a whole argument back and forth until I had to literally rummage through the bin to show her the packaging. To me this isn’t normal behaviour and makes me question what I’ve done, being quite severely ADHD on the inattentive / focus spectrum it’s hard to deal with.
After being long it thought about my feelings on the above she drops on the fact that she has also just now decided to quit her new well paying job because people who she usually does not work with are calling her useless. This is a job where this treatment is quite common, I can understand it being draining. She has elected to go back to study for her dream career and work part time which drastically decreases our joint earnings and options for living, leaving us in a financially strange spot. I could tell there was no talking her out of this, and If I tried I know it’d be a huge issue and I’d feel terrible for it.
This is all within the space of a week.
I feel stuck as I do love her, but some of these things are starting to become a really big issue for me that she is seemingly unable to address. It’s becoming volatile and it’s a guessing game as to what she will choose to do next.

2023.05.28 10:03 Xaltedfinalist [discussion] ranking the fest ubers
Hello gamers, today Im going to be attempting to rank the fest ubers from weakest to the most broken. Now note that this is all based on opinion so if you ave a different opinion, then you are able to disagree. Also note that no fest uber is bad, some are just average- below average while the rest are game breaking. So wihtout further ado lets begin.
First, he costs a whopping 5.8k cash, has CD of 160, and a speed of 5. All these are problems becasue it means that as a tanker unit, you cant send Daru out in battle recklessly and you actually have to bide your time and use Daru wisely. However, the main and biggest problem that prevents Daru from being anything more is pretty much one thing, immunities. Daru who is meant to be a TANKER has no immunities to anything but waves. This means that he can get KB, frozen, slowed, warped, and most importantly, Daru can get cursed and essentially lose his niche and thanks to his range, its pretty common. And to really rub salt on the wound, Dogumaru got a true form and for usage, its way better than Daru becasue
TBH, Garu has all the tools needed for him to succeed as a generalist but unfortunatley, he has the same weakness as Daru. Too expenisve, long CD, slow, and no immunities which is especially bad since Garu is going to be tanking for relics as well. But despite that, Garu can be pretty good at tanking everything and in the right stages, garu can be servicable when their are too many enemies that can ignore other specialist tankers.
TLDR, Garu is a good generalist tanker but due to having the same weaknesses as Daru, he is weaker as a tanker. Though hes servicable as a wall but hes not breaking the stage. Also side note, why do neither of the Garus have wave block? Their literally shields.
For starters, IZ has only 2 kbs unlike her rusher siblings many knockback + she doesnt have z killer or any form of barrier or shield break. This isn't that bad but it does reduce her compatability against enemies shes meant to deal with. No, the biggest problem is despite having a high 24k dps, she also has multi hit. What multi hit means is that instead of having high dps in one attack, each attack deals 1/3 of her dps for a total of 3 times. This means that if enemy or her is kb after 1 hit, she only deals 1/3 of her dps which is 8k... this is super low. Oh yeah and curse just like anything else shuts her down which is important since some relics can reach her range of 300 and remove her niche.
TLDR, IZ as a rushe mid ranger would be really valuable if not for her multi hit causing inconsistencies and curse being a bitch against IZ.
Now obviously Diz does have her weakness of that dumb multi hit which becomes even more of an issue since her dps against traited is already low as hell but other than that, Diz is a decently solid traitless rusher. Despite the fact that she's not breaking every stage and she can be easily replaced, her resistances and abilities allow her to fit on almost every team comp as a swiss army knife that can be used to cover multiple things at once. (colossus slayer is ass becasue everyone of them outranges her so no mention btw)
TLDR, Diz is a swiss army knife, she can do almost everything such as be a decent anti zombie,aku, or gobbler counter, etc. However due to her multi hit mixed with her low dps to anything not traitless, this makes her function as a midranged rusher who can go in and do tons of damage before going out not as great but still better than Iz. (shes not that bad, just everything else on this list is either solid or just game breaking)
But of course despite Dtama being good at stopping tratiless enemies, she does have weaknesses. For starters, against any traited enemies, she sucks hard. 44k hp and 5k dps are really low for a 375 range unit and without a curse immune, she struggles in late-end game when the stage has mixed relic units she cant slow unlike her counter part who can deal with most relics.
TLDR, Dtama is a specialist. When the stage is majority traitless or pure traitless, she can shut the whole stage down. But in mixed stages, she lacks the good stats or generalist qualities that her fest brothers and sisters above her have which is not necessarily bad but for fest ubers, is not that great.
Unfortunatley just like Dtama, S Gao is only really meant for traitless enemies. 6k dps at 480 range isnt bad and is actually pretty good but mix this with his cost of 6k cash and CD of 166 secs makes S Gao a not so great generalist as it means that getting him out is usually a big investment that can be better spent on more specialist units or generalist units that usually cost less and CD faster.
TLDR, just like Dtama, S Gao is a specialist towards traitless who destroys his target trait but in mixed stages and as a generalist, he takes too much commitment for a reward that is so little especially since thier are better generalist/specialist that usually cost less and have a faster CD than S gao and can impact the stage more than him. this is not bad but again, the fest ubers on this list are either generalist or more game breaking than S Gao.
So as a fest uber, he has a mini form and his mini form is honestly pretty good. 1k(4k massive) dps to traited enemies with a standing range of 250 is really good especially compared to units with similar stats such as vaulter. Unfortunatley, despte his dps for his range being good, just like gao, spammbale attackers in late-end game are not that great unless of course your courier.
Now that's out of the way, its time to talk about the form that actually matters, meowsketeers(hes called Dart for simplicity). How is he? Stat wise, Dart is a rushesniper unit who is very good at his job. 45k hp, a whopping 12k dps to traited, 325 range, an ld of 550 piercing, and to top it off 24 speed,6 kbs, backswing, allows dart to be very effective at shredding through traited enemies in a snap. Oh and his dmg is one big nuke so he doesnt lose it if he misses his attack; like IZ.
So why is he so low then? First, he does have some trouble against zombies due to burying and no zkiller but thats not a big problem. But the big one really is just his 45k hp. At his range 325, 45k hp is really frail as it means he usually is unable to take advantage of his high KBs and gets juggled easily or dies to surge. Not only that but also his dps against non traited is so ass. 3k dps is super low especially when theirs units like kalisa who have 8k dps to everything else. This is especially bad since as a rusher, he will be hit by curse and once he does, he just does jack shit.
TLDR, Dartanyan as a rusher to traited is scary AF especially since his dps is really high considering hte fact that he can reach an effective range of 550 allowing him to hit backliners as well unlike some rushers . Unfortunatley due to his ass base dps to traitless and mainly his frail health, dart cant be placed higher especially since some units are able to do his same dps to every enemy or just have higher dps than him at better ranged (foreshadowing probably.)
First, Im going to talk about first form and out of all the fest ubers, this one is actually good. Baby Gao is meant to be a spammable mid ranger akin to jizo or cameraman and he is able to do very well at it. With stats almost the same as jizo apart from recharge and massive to black and angel, Gao is honestly way better due to the fact he has strong vs traited allowing him to not only have more hp than jizo while also being able to deal damage to other traits other than black and angel with 3k dps which isnt bad actually. Only problem with using baby gao really is the fact that late-end game doesnt favor spammy attackers anymore unless its courier cat who is just broken. So yeah pretty good
and now its on to the second form MLGao. so MLGao as the first ever fest uber is meant to be a simple super generalist backliner with good stats. 64k hp, 5k dps, and 470 range is already pretty good but mix this with a strong against traited and MLGao now has effectivly 128k hp and 7.5k dps which is pretty good for his high range. he also has wave immunity and crit chance giving him some ability to deal with metal units. And thanks to 5% crits, gao can not only one shot most metals, but gets a substantially higher dps.
However due to his old age, he can get screwed over by surge and their is some competition to his role such as Ama and sirius but they are about on par to each other as gao has the range and hp advantage. even against traitless, gao has decent dps at 5k. Honestly, Gao would be alot higher if other fest ubers werent just overtuned monsters
TLDR, Gao is still good. His old ass has managed to age well as despite his first form becoming obsolete due to late-end game, his second form still has good damage as a generalist cat. Only problem is that other cats in this list can not only out dps him, but also have value that is needed in endgame. He still good for his role as generalist but do note the top 5 are just... SS-SSS tier ubers.
*Sigh* Kasli is a fest uber that introduced the world to the fancy new surge attack and on release, she was a literal goddess. To get this outta the way, nor her first form was not good. No surge on a slow CD and speed 250 range unit was ass especiallly since she has multi hit.
as RS Kasli, Her role is meant to be a CC/sniper and unlike others on this list, I remember her stats. She has around 49k hp, 3k dps, and 375 standing range. While This may seem pathetic at first, thats until you factor one thing, her surge and ability. See, Kasli was one of the first units to have a surge level 2 boosting her damage to 9k dps... yeah thats pretty damn high right? Well not only does she have 9k dps, she also has access to a 50% chance to kb traited which means that if she can proc her KB, she can effectively make the enemy get super KB thanks to her surge piercing to an LD up to 675 which is nuts. And btw, thanks to surge also targeting backliners, she cannot suffer from mizli syndrome which is a big upside. Even if she doesnt get that hit, she still deals 9k dps directly which is alot.
Mix this with her immunity to weaken,curse,wave, and her 5kbs and she has good survivability.
So with all that praise Im giving essentially my favorite cat, its time to go back to reality and go over the long list of weaknesses.
So, Dphono is meant to be a super backliner and despite lacking massive damage, to his credit, ponos decided to bless him with massive stats. So Unlike his light brother, D Phono only has 500 range instead of 600 but in exchange gets a nice increase to 57k hp and some of the most absurd raw damage avaliable. How? Heres the demo.
So, D phono has 51k dmg or 7k dps right, now one of the other new abilities Phono gets is the mini surge allowing him to boost his output to a whopping....61k dmg and 8k dps. To put this into perspective, this is on par with Daliasan with savage blow and more than Lucifer the fallen with surge attack. Yeah, thats just how much raw damage D phono has. And on top of that, D phono also has slow for 2 secs. While the up time is ass and more of a bonus, it does allow him the ability to go and ensure that he can at the very least stay alive longer as the threats stay still for little bit.
Unfortunatley, D phono cant be higher due to having weaknesses the other fest ubers dont have. remember multi hit? Yeah that fucking ability that splits dps into 3 equal parts? Thanks to this abiltity, D phono's real dps in his effective range around 850 is actually 5k dps which is not bad but now makes him on par with daliasan and lucifer for damage disregarding their other stat augments. Not only that but he also has curse immune... despite being mostly used for his stats. Yup, the stat based unit has curse immune, this means its absolutely useless. Oh and unlike the next entry on this list, because of Dphono's lack of massive damage to any trait and shorter range and LD, Phono and Dphono deal the same DPS to traited enemies and are unable to be replaced.
TLDR, D phono is a good uber thanks to his range and theoretical dps. unfrotunatley His raw DPS thanks to that stupid multi hit ends up being around 5k instead of the whopping 8k its supposed to be and without massive dmg and something else to augment it, I cant justify him being higher. Especially when the rest of the list has more dps or brings a value that D phono cant bring.
(also note that this is pre emptive so depending on what happens when has finally released, this placing might change and he might be higher, when I get him by whaling and test him, I will do a replacement and put him higher or lower depending on how I feel)
His main role is to rush/snipe traitless but thanks to a few key details, he can not only destroy traitless, but also any other trait in his way. His stats are busted, 98k hp is insanley high for a rusher alloiwing dark to easily take advantage of his 5 kbs. Also he has a speed of 30 increasing his rusher capabilities.
Now obviously these stats are very impressive but the best part is that dark has 2 abilities that really make his dps and damage reach the stars, what are they ? strengthen and massive damage. with massive damage to traitless, his dps soars to a solid 15k dps which is nuts but with strengthened 50%, this boosts his dps to a shocking 30k dps or for dmg, 100k damage in total to just traitless... yeah, thats fucking massive for a rusher.
And the funny part about this is the fact that thanks to strengthen, Darktanyan dps is only 2k less than dart with massive dmg to traitless and his hp is actually higher than dart when strengtghened meaning that dark can actually replace dart effectively while offering the team more value agianst traitless which dart only lightly tickles against.
On top of that, Dark doesnt really have any big weaknesses. No hitman is not a weakness. While hitman be substantially cheaper at 960C, dark has better hp,range,piercing range, speed, and dps against things generally. No, the main weakness to Dark's reign is actually no surge immunity which leads to Dark getting shredded by surge attacks which is very common in end game. Also curse is a factor though not as much due to strengthen boosting his dps to 10k which is pretty damn good.
TLDR, Darktanyan will forever be one of the best rusher units in the game. His insnaley high dps to traited and especially traitless allow him to rip and tear all his enemies througout early-end game but without that cursed surge immunity that the top 2 fest ubers have, I cant justify him going any higher as most of end game is filled with surge attacks.
So now its onto the real thing. Mitama has 29k ( 145k resist) and 5k dps. While again this look s unimpressive, thats until you realize that mitama has around a 4 sec slow and only has a tba of guess what, 4 secs. This means that 1 mitama has the ability to basically almost stun lock any traited enemy in place esentially shutting stages down by herself. But lkets say that enemies get past mitama somehow? Well thanks to her 15 kbs and 145k resist to any traited, she can easily reposition herself to a better spot and continue to just destroy the stage and shut down the enemies. Also she has immunities to weaken,slow, freeze, kb, and wave, which makes her more resiliant.
Now obviously I know, people say that she falls off in late-end game due to curse and aku but really imo, I dont think she falls off that hard. Infact, its kinda over exaggerated. for curse, realistically, who can curse Mitama? most common relics have short range other than loris and lowkey. thats only 2 that can effectivly shut her down and lowkey is meant to be a boss enemy. And for Aku IMO shields aren't the main problem. yeah they prevent mitama from using her CC but really think hard about which aku enemies cause problems? Obviously, we have the rein d , bear, and kory but then theirs also gory and condemed peng; units without shields that can also just tear your meatshields wihtout CC; Mitama.
Now while I did hopefully prove that mitama does have viability or in the very least a solid place in late-end game. Mitama still has her problems that makes her worst than the top 2. Surge can juggle her around, curse when it does happen screws her survivability over, and obviously she can do nothing when shields around, but other than that, she is still Mitama and when those 3 weaknesses are non present, she destroys the stage or helps other units destroy the stage.
TLDR, Mitama is mitama. Her CC is still very valuable and broken helping other units take down a stage that already is most likley shut down. However due to her weaknesses to aku shields, surge juggling, and curse, She isn't the best anymore but is still deserving of being in the top 3
Obviously though, the problem remains, multi hit. this multi divdes his dps into 3 and it would make him bad like Diz and Iz... Not. Against traited, this only splits his damage into around 5k dps each hit, and because his attacks overlay in the ranges around 800, he still deals 10k dps. Compare that to aphros's 12k dps to alien and thats only 2k less. And He still has that extra attack to enemies at range 1000 which is where enemies are usually weak as paper. Oh and thats against all traits.
With all this plus surge and wave immune, he has almost no weakness. loris and cruse blast are the only relic that can touch him, CC enemies cant reach 600 standing range, aku cant juggle him with surge or block many attacks with shields, and best of all, he has the best aspects of a rusher unit with high speed and backswing so he will be able to reach the enemies quicker without running into them like cosmo.
TLDR, Phono is the newest and one of the most broken fest ubers to date. wth specialist level dps to all traited enemies, a range 600, immunity to surge and wave, rusher abilities, and an LD reaching to 1000, Phono is broken. he can effectively blast the enemy while they cant reach him and with he right units, he can carry a stage super hard.
Not only does she have 78k hp which is insanely high for someone at her range , she also has 5 kbs, and is immune to surge,warp, curse, waves, and weaken. This all combines to increase her survivability to an insanely high level. because Dasli cant get cursed, resposistion, and doesnt get affected by Aku/ some enemies main gimmic for dealing damage allowing her to keep lobbing 12k dps at the enemies.
And not only can surge be used for raw dps, her surge can also be used to create a wall that destroys peons, juggle enemies such as puffington and rein d who have multiple KBs.
Also she can curse enemies removing debuffs such as curse or weaken that can limit your cats ability to push.
With al these strentghs combined, Dasli has weaknesses right? Nope, Dasli has no weakness. She cant get weakned, cursed, aku doesnt work cause she has high dps and surge immune, infact her only weakness is literally the behemoth archtype which was created specifically to ensure Dasli stops being the queen of battle cats. Yeah, just like Mitama, she created an enemy type to specifically counter her even though it got powercreeped the moment it came out with courier cat.
TLDR, Dasli will forever be the queen of battle cats. With high dps to every trait, high survivability, and her compatability with almost every single unit in the game. Dasli takes the top spot being the best fest uber in the game as she can effectivly do almost anything all the way until the very far parts of endgame where enemies have surge immune.
thanks for listening to me rant like a dumbass and I will see you later.

- Daru
First, he costs a whopping 5.8k cash, has CD of 160, and a speed of 5. All these are problems becasue it means that as a tanker unit, you cant send Daru out in battle recklessly and you actually have to bide your time and use Daru wisely. However, the main and biggest problem that prevents Daru from being anything more is pretty much one thing, immunities. Daru who is meant to be a TANKER has no immunities to anything but waves. This means that he can get KB, frozen, slowed, warped, and most importantly, Daru can get cursed and essentially lose his niche and thanks to his range, its pretty common. And to really rub salt on the wound, Dogumaru got a true form and for usage, its way better than Daru becasue
- Dogumaru has curse immune and an extra target to relic so he cant lose his resist.
- dogumaru costs 3.6k cash which is way less than Daru
- dougmaru only has CD of 80, by the time you get antoher Daru, you have 3 dogus (all of them combined has more hp against traitless than daru while also being curse immune)
- Garu
TBH, Garu has all the tools needed for him to succeed as a generalist but unfortunatley, he has the same weakness as Daru. Too expenisve, long CD, slow, and no immunities which is especially bad since Garu is going to be tanking for relics as well. But despite that, Garu can be pretty good at tanking everything and in the right stages, garu can be servicable when their are too many enemies that can ignore other specialist tankers.
TLDR, Garu is a good generalist tanker but due to having the same weaknesses as Daru, he is weaker as a tanker. Though hes servicable as a wall but hes not breaking the stage. Also side note, why do neither of the Garus have wave block? Their literally shields.
- IZ
For starters, IZ has only 2 kbs unlike her rusher siblings many knockback + she doesnt have z killer or any form of barrier or shield break. This isn't that bad but it does reduce her compatability against enemies shes meant to deal with. No, the biggest problem is despite having a high 24k dps, she also has multi hit. What multi hit means is that instead of having high dps in one attack, each attack deals 1/3 of her dps for a total of 3 times. This means that if enemy or her is kb after 1 hit, she only deals 1/3 of her dps which is 8k... this is super low. Oh yeah and curse just like anything else shuts her down which is important since some relics can reach her range of 300 and remove her niche.
TLDR, IZ as a rushe mid ranger would be really valuable if not for her multi hit causing inconsistencies and curse being a bitch against IZ.
- Diz
Now obviously Diz does have her weakness of that dumb multi hit which becomes even more of an issue since her dps against traited is already low as hell but other than that, Diz is a decently solid traitless rusher. Despite the fact that she's not breaking every stage and she can be easily replaced, her resistances and abilities allow her to fit on almost every team comp as a swiss army knife that can be used to cover multiple things at once. (colossus slayer is ass becasue everyone of them outranges her so no mention btw)
TLDR, Diz is a swiss army knife, she can do almost everything such as be a decent anti zombie,aku, or gobbler counter, etc. However due to her multi hit mixed with her low dps to anything not traitless, this makes her function as a midranged rusher who can go in and do tons of damage before going out not as great but still better than Iz. (shes not that bad, just everything else on this list is either solid or just game breaking)
- Dtama
But of course despite Dtama being good at stopping tratiless enemies, she does have weaknesses. For starters, against any traited enemies, she sucks hard. 44k hp and 5k dps are really low for a 375 range unit and without a curse immune, she struggles in late-end game when the stage has mixed relic units she cant slow unlike her counter part who can deal with most relics.
TLDR, Dtama is a specialist. When the stage is majority traitless or pure traitless, she can shut the whole stage down. But in mixed stages, she lacks the good stats or generalist qualities that her fest brothers and sisters above her have which is not necessarily bad but for fest ubers, is not that great.
- S Gao
Unfortunatley just like Dtama, S Gao is only really meant for traitless enemies. 6k dps at 480 range isnt bad and is actually pretty good but mix this with his cost of 6k cash and CD of 166 secs makes S Gao a not so great generalist as it means that getting him out is usually a big investment that can be better spent on more specialist units or generalist units that usually cost less and CD faster.
TLDR, just like Dtama, S Gao is a specialist towards traitless who destroys his target trait but in mixed stages and as a generalist, he takes too much commitment for a reward that is so little especially since thier are better generalist/specialist that usually cost less and have a faster CD than S gao and can impact the stage more than him. this is not bad but again, the fest ubers on this list are either generalist or more game breaking than S Gao.
- Dartanyan
So as a fest uber, he has a mini form and his mini form is honestly pretty good. 1k(4k massive) dps to traited enemies with a standing range of 250 is really good especially compared to units with similar stats such as vaulter. Unfortunatley, despte his dps for his range being good, just like gao, spammbale attackers in late-end game are not that great unless of course your courier.
Now that's out of the way, its time to talk about the form that actually matters, meowsketeers(hes called Dart for simplicity). How is he? Stat wise, Dart is a rushesniper unit who is very good at his job. 45k hp, a whopping 12k dps to traited, 325 range, an ld of 550 piercing, and to top it off 24 speed,6 kbs, backswing, allows dart to be very effective at shredding through traited enemies in a snap. Oh and his dmg is one big nuke so he doesnt lose it if he misses his attack; like IZ.
So why is he so low then? First, he does have some trouble against zombies due to burying and no zkiller but thats not a big problem. But the big one really is just his 45k hp. At his range 325, 45k hp is really frail as it means he usually is unable to take advantage of his high KBs and gets juggled easily or dies to surge. Not only that but also his dps against non traited is so ass. 3k dps is super low especially when theirs units like kalisa who have 8k dps to everything else. This is especially bad since as a rusher, he will be hit by curse and once he does, he just does jack shit.
TLDR, Dartanyan as a rusher to traited is scary AF especially since his dps is really high considering hte fact that he can reach an effective range of 550 allowing him to hit backliners as well unlike some rushers . Unfortunatley due to his ass base dps to traitless and mainly his frail health, dart cant be placed higher especially since some units are able to do his same dps to every enemy or just have higher dps than him at better ranged (foreshadowing probably.)
- Gao
First, Im going to talk about first form and out of all the fest ubers, this one is actually good. Baby Gao is meant to be a spammable mid ranger akin to jizo or cameraman and he is able to do very well at it. With stats almost the same as jizo apart from recharge and massive to black and angel, Gao is honestly way better due to the fact he has strong vs traited allowing him to not only have more hp than jizo while also being able to deal damage to other traits other than black and angel with 3k dps which isnt bad actually. Only problem with using baby gao really is the fact that late-end game doesnt favor spammy attackers anymore unless its courier cat who is just broken. So yeah pretty good
and now its on to the second form MLGao. so MLGao as the first ever fest uber is meant to be a simple super generalist backliner with good stats. 64k hp, 5k dps, and 470 range is already pretty good but mix this with a strong against traited and MLGao now has effectivly 128k hp and 7.5k dps which is pretty good for his high range. he also has wave immunity and crit chance giving him some ability to deal with metal units. And thanks to 5% crits, gao can not only one shot most metals, but gets a substantially higher dps.
However due to his old age, he can get screwed over by surge and their is some competition to his role such as Ama and sirius but they are about on par to each other as gao has the range and hp advantage. even against traitless, gao has decent dps at 5k. Honestly, Gao would be alot higher if other fest ubers werent just overtuned monsters
TLDR, Gao is still good. His old ass has managed to age well as despite his first form becoming obsolete due to late-end game, his second form still has good damage as a generalist cat. Only problem is that other cats in this list can not only out dps him, but also have value that is needed in endgame. He still good for his role as generalist but do note the top 5 are just... SS-SSS tier ubers.
- Kasli
*Sigh* Kasli is a fest uber that introduced the world to the fancy new surge attack and on release, she was a literal goddess. To get this outta the way, nor her first form was not good. No surge on a slow CD and speed 250 range unit was ass especiallly since she has multi hit.
as RS Kasli, Her role is meant to be a CC/sniper and unlike others on this list, I remember her stats. She has around 49k hp, 3k dps, and 375 standing range. While This may seem pathetic at first, thats until you factor one thing, her surge and ability. See, Kasli was one of the first units to have a surge level 2 boosting her damage to 9k dps... yeah thats pretty damn high right? Well not only does she have 9k dps, she also has access to a 50% chance to kb traited which means that if she can proc her KB, she can effectively make the enemy get super KB thanks to her surge piercing to an LD up to 675 which is nuts. And btw, thanks to surge also targeting backliners, she cannot suffer from mizli syndrome which is a big upside. Even if she doesnt get that hit, she still deals 9k dps directly which is alot.
Mix this with her immunity to weaken,curse,wave, and her 5kbs and she has good survivability.
So with all that praise Im giving essentially my favorite cat, its time to go back to reality and go over the long list of weaknesses.
- just like dart, 49k hp at mid range is surprisingly frail leading to kasli dying before utilizing her KB
- She relies heavily on KB to carry sometimes which is bad due to the fact its 50-50
- her KB while being a strong tool makes her less versatile as the top 5 due to the fact it can cause some cats to miss their attacks like nukers or long foreswing cats.
- without surge immunity, she gets juggled by aku enemy surge which is bad especially since aku are present the most in end game
- D phono
So, Dphono is meant to be a super backliner and despite lacking massive damage, to his credit, ponos decided to bless him with massive stats. So Unlike his light brother, D Phono only has 500 range instead of 600 but in exchange gets a nice increase to 57k hp and some of the most absurd raw damage avaliable. How? Heres the demo.
So, D phono has 51k dmg or 7k dps right, now one of the other new abilities Phono gets is the mini surge allowing him to boost his output to a whopping....61k dmg and 8k dps. To put this into perspective, this is on par with Daliasan with savage blow and more than Lucifer the fallen with surge attack. Yeah, thats just how much raw damage D phono has. And on top of that, D phono also has slow for 2 secs. While the up time is ass and more of a bonus, it does allow him the ability to go and ensure that he can at the very least stay alive longer as the threats stay still for little bit.
Unfortunatley, D phono cant be higher due to having weaknesses the other fest ubers dont have. remember multi hit? Yeah that fucking ability that splits dps into 3 equal parts? Thanks to this abiltity, D phono's real dps in his effective range around 850 is actually 5k dps which is not bad but now makes him on par with daliasan and lucifer for damage disregarding their other stat augments. Not only that but he also has curse immune... despite being mostly used for his stats. Yup, the stat based unit has curse immune, this means its absolutely useless. Oh and unlike the next entry on this list, because of Dphono's lack of massive damage to any trait and shorter range and LD, Phono and Dphono deal the same DPS to traited enemies and are unable to be replaced.
TLDR, D phono is a good uber thanks to his range and theoretical dps. unfrotunatley His raw DPS thanks to that stupid multi hit ends up being around 5k instead of the whopping 8k its supposed to be and without massive dmg and something else to augment it, I cant justify him being higher. Especially when the rest of the list has more dps or brings a value that D phono cant bring.
(also note that this is pre emptive so depending on what happens when has finally released, this placing might change and he might be higher, when I get him by whaling and test him, I will do a replacement and put him higher or lower depending on how I feel)
- Darktanyan
His main role is to rush/snipe traitless but thanks to a few key details, he can not only destroy traitless, but also any other trait in his way. His stats are busted, 98k hp is insanley high for a rusher alloiwing dark to easily take advantage of his 5 kbs. Also he has a speed of 30 increasing his rusher capabilities.
Now obviously these stats are very impressive but the best part is that dark has 2 abilities that really make his dps and damage reach the stars, what are they ? strengthen and massive damage. with massive damage to traitless, his dps soars to a solid 15k dps which is nuts but with strengthened 50%, this boosts his dps to a shocking 30k dps or for dmg, 100k damage in total to just traitless... yeah, thats fucking massive for a rusher.
And the funny part about this is the fact that thanks to strengthen, Darktanyan dps is only 2k less than dart with massive dmg to traitless and his hp is actually higher than dart when strengtghened meaning that dark can actually replace dart effectively while offering the team more value agianst traitless which dart only lightly tickles against.
On top of that, Dark doesnt really have any big weaknesses. No hitman is not a weakness. While hitman be substantially cheaper at 960C, dark has better hp,range,piercing range, speed, and dps against things generally. No, the main weakness to Dark's reign is actually no surge immunity which leads to Dark getting shredded by surge attacks which is very common in end game. Also curse is a factor though not as much due to strengthen boosting his dps to 10k which is pretty damn good.
TLDR, Darktanyan will forever be one of the best rusher units in the game. His insnaley high dps to traited and especially traitless allow him to rip and tear all his enemies througout early-end game but without that cursed surge immunity that the top 2 fest ubers have, I cant justify him going any higher as most of end game is filled with surge attacks.
- Mitama
So now its onto the real thing. Mitama has 29k ( 145k resist) and 5k dps. While again this look s unimpressive, thats until you realize that mitama has around a 4 sec slow and only has a tba of guess what, 4 secs. This means that 1 mitama has the ability to basically almost stun lock any traited enemy in place esentially shutting stages down by herself. But lkets say that enemies get past mitama somehow? Well thanks to her 15 kbs and 145k resist to any traited, she can easily reposition herself to a better spot and continue to just destroy the stage and shut down the enemies. Also she has immunities to weaken,slow, freeze, kb, and wave, which makes her more resiliant.
Now obviously I know, people say that she falls off in late-end game due to curse and aku but really imo, I dont think she falls off that hard. Infact, its kinda over exaggerated. for curse, realistically, who can curse Mitama? most common relics have short range other than loris and lowkey. thats only 2 that can effectivly shut her down and lowkey is meant to be a boss enemy. And for Aku IMO shields aren't the main problem. yeah they prevent mitama from using her CC but really think hard about which aku enemies cause problems? Obviously, we have the rein d , bear, and kory but then theirs also gory and condemed peng; units without shields that can also just tear your meatshields wihtout CC; Mitama.
Now while I did hopefully prove that mitama does have viability or in the very least a solid place in late-end game. Mitama still has her problems that makes her worst than the top 2. Surge can juggle her around, curse when it does happen screws her survivability over, and obviously she can do nothing when shields around, but other than that, she is still Mitama and when those 3 weaknesses are non present, she destroys the stage or helps other units destroy the stage.
TLDR, Mitama is mitama. Her CC is still very valuable and broken helping other units take down a stage that already is most likley shut down. However due to her weaknesses to aku shields, surge juggling, and curse, She isn't the best anymore but is still deserving of being in the top 3
- Phono
Obviously though, the problem remains, multi hit. this multi divdes his dps into 3 and it would make him bad like Diz and Iz... Not. Against traited, this only splits his damage into around 5k dps each hit, and because his attacks overlay in the ranges around 800, he still deals 10k dps. Compare that to aphros's 12k dps to alien and thats only 2k less. And He still has that extra attack to enemies at range 1000 which is where enemies are usually weak as paper. Oh and thats against all traits.
With all this plus surge and wave immune, he has almost no weakness. loris and cruse blast are the only relic that can touch him, CC enemies cant reach 600 standing range, aku cant juggle him with surge or block many attacks with shields, and best of all, he has the best aspects of a rusher unit with high speed and backswing so he will be able to reach the enemies quicker without running into them like cosmo.
TLDR, Phono is the newest and one of the most broken fest ubers to date. wth specialist level dps to all traited enemies, a range 600, immunity to surge and wave, rusher abilities, and an LD reaching to 1000, Phono is broken. he can effectively blast the enemy while they cant reach him and with he right units, he can carry a stage super hard.
- Dasli
Not only does she have 78k hp which is insanely high for someone at her range , she also has 5 kbs, and is immune to surge,warp, curse, waves, and weaken. This all combines to increase her survivability to an insanely high level. because Dasli cant get cursed, resposistion, and doesnt get affected by Aku/ some enemies main gimmic for dealing damage allowing her to keep lobbing 12k dps at the enemies.
And not only can surge be used for raw dps, her surge can also be used to create a wall that destroys peons, juggle enemies such as puffington and rein d who have multiple KBs.
Also she can curse enemies removing debuffs such as curse or weaken that can limit your cats ability to push.
With al these strentghs combined, Dasli has weaknesses right? Nope, Dasli has no weakness. She cant get weakned, cursed, aku doesnt work cause she has high dps and surge immune, infact her only weakness is literally the behemoth archtype which was created specifically to ensure Dasli stops being the queen of battle cats. Yeah, just like Mitama, she created an enemy type to specifically counter her even though it got powercreeped the moment it came out with courier cat.
TLDR, Dasli will forever be the queen of battle cats. With high dps to every trait, high survivability, and her compatability with almost every single unit in the game. Dasli takes the top spot being the best fest uber in the game as she can effectivly do almost anything all the way until the very far parts of endgame where enemies have surge immune.
thanks for listening to me rant like a dumbass and I will see you later.

So this will be both my husband's and my first international trip from Australia and also the first time attempting to one bag. Any advice would be great!
We're going for 5 weeks to Europe in July August this year. A week in England, heading up to Scotland then a night in Amsterdam, week in Croatia, 2 weeks in Italy and 2 nights in Paris for Disneyland.
One of us currently has the Osprey daylight 30L duffle/backpack and wondering whether we should get a second and I'm looking for a light weight handbag to use as a personal item
Our difficulty is flights to and from Australia only have 7kg carry on and the Osprey daylight 30l is pretty much as big as we can go
Is it common to have laundry facilities in these countries? Are we mad trying to one bag this with the 7kg limit? We have to option for check in home and considering buying check in from Italy to Paris if we need to to bring home some souvenirs
I've gotta bring a few creams due to eczema and probably my own sunscreen cause I have been allergic in the past. Know of any light see-through toiletry bags?
Also, any good packable raincoats for men and women?
And side note, anyone know of a good place to get a leather jacket in Italy? (Not planning on adding that to my bag, just gonna carry/wear it)
Let me know your list of what you packed if you had a similar trip with these restrictions! Here seems a lot friendly then the male dominated one bag who weren't really helpful for me (I don't really want to wash undies every day to get by)

2023.05.28 09:42 RipTieCutToyMan Are Doomers too optimistic?
Hello! I'd like to share some of my own thoughts on the topic of AI and the future of Humanity. Hopefully I have a new-ish perspective to offer.
I’ll start with a spoiler: I’m not an AI doomer. However, I am going to start by claiming that those who fear the potential dangers of AI are not taking their concerns to the fullest extent. Please, sit comfortably and remain calm while I do my best to elevate the level of panic surrounding this issue.
As a warm-up, let’s start with a simple straightforward question: what is the purpose of life? I once came across an amusing response to this question credited to Michael Russell by Sean Carroll: "The purpose of life is to hydrogenate carbon dioxide."
The backstory behind this answer, while intriguing, isn't particularly relevant in our current context. In essence, it relates to Methanogenesis, a metabolic process central to early archaea that produces Methane, and which is believed to have played a crucial role in the history of life on Earth. The key point is that while this process is natural and expected to occur spontaneously (as it reduces the energy level of the environment), it does require overcoming a local energetic barrier. The archaea found a nontrival pathway to wield it anyway. In this sense, the first life can be seen as a chemical catalyst that accelerates the Second Law.
But this is still essentially the nature of life - a glorified catalyst that utilizes information, either through explicit computational processing or implicit environmental adaptation, to identify and exploit energetic arbitrages (which are a result of the low entropy we observe in our surroundings).
While this viewpoint is quite common, its implications are often overlooked. We frequently state that "evolution has no goals," but it appears that evolution is directed after all: its goal is to efficiently decrease the energy level of its environment, and it optimizes this objective. The extreme endgame scenario should sound familiar: an all-encompassing mechanism, rapidly spreading near the speed of light, transforming everything it encounters into a void, a vast expanse of cold, lifeless matter with zero free-energy.
This seems eerily like a typical technophobic rant, reminiscent of concepts like Drexler's Gray Goo or Yudkowsky's Paperclip Maximizer. In fact, Yudkowsky's focus lies precisely on an exceptionally effective optimization process over an malevolent (from a human-centric standpoint) objective.
However, note that this concept is not specifically tied to technology or humanity - it’s much more general. I think it’s also much more convincing, as it does not depend on particular assumptions regarding specific ML models and such. In fact, it’s almost self-evident: the described mechanism will inevitably dominate the accessible universe originating from its start point and triumph over every evolutionary competition.
Thus, we may conclude that the ultimate and unavoidable goal of life is to initiate a phase transition that consumes and annihilates everything valuable and intriguing to life. Hooray!
But, and this is important, we also may not. Instead, an alternative conclusion can be drawn: the AI doomers are profoundly and fractally wrong. And this is indeed my personal conclusion. Why?
Firstly, even if the reasoning presented here (or by the doomers) is impeccable, worrying about it is futile. Simply live your life and accept the impending doom that awaits. No amount of coordination can withstand the Second Law of Thermodynamics and its computational allies, whether they are biological or otherwise.
Secondly, the reasoning is (of course!) not impeccable. I assign a similar level of credibility to my own argument above as I do to Yudkowsky's - approximately zero. It is far too easy to conjure up broad and abstract arguments of this nature, and there are countless ways in which they could be (and likely are) incorrect. They serve as entertaining thought experiments, nothing more. It is both foolish (and, frankly, arrogant) to derive practical working assumptions from such excessively generic claims.
Regarding AI specifically, I believe that Yudkowsky and his followers are mistaken, and the reasons for their error are straightforward and widely recognized. They remain unconvinced, but I’m unimpressed by their unimpressedness. For the sake of completeness, I'll shortly outline some key points below, although it's important to note that none of these arguments are original, I present them superficially and the list is not exhausted.
Our apprehension should focus on the societal and technological upheavals propelled by AI, the potential misuse by malevolent entities (my biggest worry), and even the alarmist rhetoric of Yudkowskian doomers, which may inadvertently incite extremism or dangerous cults. All of these risk are troubling, yet all of them are "normal" and bounded.
We need not lose sleep over the notion of god-like robots whimsically wiping out humanity.

For the sake of completeness, I'll shortly outline some key points below, although it's important to note that none of these arguments are original, I present them superficially and the list is not exhausted.
- "Agency" and "intelligence" are largely independent traits, a fact that's both analytically clear and observable in humans. Therefore, a "misaligned AI" would likely resemble a non-user-friendly product, rather than an ominous entity like Skynet.
- An agent does not necessarily have a broad “agenda”. Earth is full of intelligent highly-adaptive agents, whose main (and almost only) goal is just homeostasis.
- "Intelligence" isn't a singular, undifferentiated entity, and "superhuman intelligence" doesn't necessarily mean "strategic, manipulative genius". It's far more likely that most superhuman AI will ultimately resemble a highly sophisticated language model, combined with specialized models and engines designed for specific tasks and simulations in areas like mathematics and engineering. These might be akin to "chess-engines" except they're playing "science" or "engineering" instead of chess. In other words, a Rain-Man, not a Vizzini.
- The world is chaotic, stochastic, and complex. Superhuman intelligence is unlikely to ever be the prophetic superpower some envision it to be, due to prosaic reasons. The issue with intricate and precise plans that aim to take over the world in 73 steps, where the initial 41 steps appear utterly benign to the unassuming observer, isn't that they're challenging to formulate for idiots like us - it's that they're simply unfeasible.
- We'll likely see a multitude of superhuman AIs. If they do possess autonomous, self-motivated agency at all, they're likely to be uncoordinated and misaligned among themselves (and all, by design, will be at least partially aligned with us humans). Given that intelligence isn't one-dimensional, and isn't an omnipotent super-power, none of these AIs will have a devastating edge over the others. Thus, even the worst-case scenario that fits that Yudkowskians world-view resembles a situation where "good AIs hunt down bad AIs, while life goes on mostly uninterrupted” more than an apocalypse
Our apprehension should focus on the societal and technological upheavals propelled by AI, the potential misuse by malevolent entities (my biggest worry), and even the alarmist rhetoric of Yudkowskian doomers, which may inadvertently incite extremism or dangerous cults. All of these risk are troubling, yet all of them are "normal" and bounded.
We need not lose sleep over the notion of god-like robots whimsically wiping out humanity.

Hi, The Crypto Cell is an education organization that helps newcomers learn about cryptocurrency investing so they can invest and trade responsibly and safely with our expert advice on diversifying your portfolio, buying low, selling high, and avoiding scams.
- Fake ICOs that are set up to steal your money You can’t always be sure that an online cryptocurrency wallet is safe. A recent study found out that there are many fake ICOs in the crypto space which will take your money and run with it! For example, hackers managed to steal about $80 million dollars from users back in 2017 through one such phishing scam — “The Wolf of Wall Street” (2017). So if you’re looking into investing some funds make sure they come recommended by reputable sources or have a strong security system like two-factor authentication enabled so this doesn’t happen again…
- Non-existent exchanges or wallets where you can buy cryptocurrencies Cryptocurrencies are not yet established enough to have their own exchanges. If you want to buy some digital coins, your best bet is usually going through an existing one like Coinbase or Kraken which will allow beginners, as well as seasoned traders alike, access with the ease of use features that make navigating the market easier than ever before!
- Websites that offer fake cryptocurrency giveaways in exchange for personal information, such as a phone number and email address Websites that offer fake cryptocurrency giveaways in exchange for personal information, such as a phone number and email address are nothing new. They popped up all over social media earlier this year when more people than ever before began investing their money into cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum. Websites promising free coins often ask users to provide sensitive data including bank account numbers which can result in identity theft if submitted without care.
- Stay away from any cryptocurrency that is not on a major exchange Stay away from any cryptocurrency that does not have a major exchange such as Binance or Coinbase The safest way to invest in cryptocurrencies is by purchasing them on an established platform. These exchanges offer insurance policies and security measures so your funds are protected against hacks, bots, malware attacks, etc., which may affect other platforms like Local Bitcoins where you buy gold with bitcoin.
- Avoid cryptocurrencies with only whitepapers and no code To be a successful cryptocurrency, you need to know that there are some things in this world that cannot be trusted. The first thing is the developers of your favorite coins and tokens — they might just disappear with all their money! Be sure not only do they have an idea but also code behind it so no one can steal away what belongs to yours or take advantage when something goes wrong (just ask anyone who invested in Bitcoin). So next time someone tries selling you on an Altcoin without any info available other than whitepapers, please remember this cryptocurrency scams list and make the right decision for yourself!
- Be careful of shady exchanges or trading platforms There are many exchanges and trading platforms out there that can be dangerous to your coins. Make sure you only trade on established websites with transparency into their system, otherwise it might end up being a losing battle for them in the long run!
- Check the team behind the coin, their experience, and how transparent they are about their project There’s no better way to invest in cryptocurrency than by checking out the team behind it. If you want a safe haven for your money that will be sure to have value 10 years from now, then coins with experienced teams are worth looking at! Cryptocurrencies are in a state of constant flux, and new scams pop up constantly. It can be difficult to know what is real and what isn’t when it comes to this emerging technology. The best thing you can do for yourself before investing is read everything you can on the subject, research every coin thoroughly, and only invest in currencies that have been around for at least one year with a solid market cap — these will likely not disappear overnight like most cryptocurrencies.

2023.05.28 07:21 Significant-Notice- Selective reporting of placebo tests in top economics journals
Placebo tests, where a null result is used to support the validity of the research design, is common in economics. Such tests provide an incentive to underreport statistically significant tests, a form of reversed p-hacking. Based on a pre-registered analysis plan, we test for such underreporting in all papers meeting our inclusion criteria (n=377) published in 11 top economics journals between 2009-2021. If the null hypothesis is true in all tests, 2.5% of them should be statistically significant at the 5% level with an effect in the same direction as the main test (and 5% in total). The actual fraction of statistically significant placebo tests with an effect in the same direction is 1.29% (95% CI [0.83, 1.63]), and the overall fraction of statistically significant placebo tests is 3.10% (95% CI [2.2, 4.0]). Our results provide strong evidence of selective underreporting of statistically significant placebo tests in top economics journals.
That is from a new paper by Anna Dreber, Magnus Johannesson, and Yifan Yang.
