Dip your bare feet in a bowl of garlicy water and you’ll taste it

Why is everybody saying slay the spire pioneered the genre when it’s a clone of others?

I’m not trying to criticize OP

But I have seen this posted over and over again, and I really don’t understand why it is capturing people’s attention.

Another commenter here pointed out that it’s mystical pseudoscience, and it has no relevancy to anything. (Ed: Unless you want to fund future research and how to create undead soldiers /s)

There’s really no mystery to what happens when a human dies or any other creature for that matter, various electrical impulses continue in various ways, then the creature dies.

The same way you fix a car, first you figure out what’s wrong, then you fix it.

I gave up on DoDonPachi. Same thing, 20 years of just grinding and sticking with it, even did the classic “final final true boss has one hit point and I choke” move.

Now I’m 49, my reactions will never be what they were when I was younger, the dream is over.

It’s like you didn’t read the article, and are specifically focusing on a one-dimensional argument while you can conveniently ignore the greater issues at play.

Go and read your own comments, in fact go read the article, and please try to come back with some meaningful thoughts.

Oh no, it seems to predict everything perfectly.

You just have to accept that the known universe is actually a 5D holographic projection on a the inner curve of a 7D frisbee that is floats through an unbounded, dimensionless 11D space that can somehow also expand.

Edit: also that there are infinity solutions to every problem. So tidy and elegant 😌

The hilarious thing about the crackpot index is that almost ALL of it applies to credible physicists.

Physics is in a really dirty place right now, where fundamental “truths” are exploding before our eyes and the “religion” of established physics has become inertial to real growth.

We still have people who will not accept that deep at it’s core, SR is broken and QM has torn off the mask of illusion. We have new JWST data that shows the Big Bang probably never happened and the universe isn’t expanding the way it has been previously thought.

Physics is in a sad place right now with people talking about multiverses and other abhorrent mystical nonsense. Oh, we can’t currently probe at sufficiently low resolution / high energy… that means it must be magic /s

String ‘theory’ is mental masturbation for mathematicians.

Hmm… nothing in our model or math makes sense… I know… let’s just jam all the artifacts into a dimension that cannot be measured. Ahhh… look how elegant it is!

It’s also a half finished, borderline empty, mechanically broken, quest broken, AI broken game.

I know people love the combat, and that won me over as well - it’s about as good as you can get. The rest is basically dog shit in my opinion.

I’m not going to elbow drop Owlboy, but I think you should try it within the refund window because in my opinion it’s way overhyped, and does not deliver much mechanically.

Hey thanks, it looks like the main issue is that it literally leaks and diffuses into the material.

From there it forms hydrides/voids and thus tiny pressure differentials which aid in cracking.

When it’s not doing that, being suspended in the material simply changes the underlying materials’ ductility in different ways under different conditions.

Looks very fascinating and all centered around the idea that the hydrogen atom is so tiny, it “fills in the holes” of other materials and wreaks havoc.

This is my understanding from again, a layperson perspective, but I did find it the links interesting!

When you show up to drop a video and ask for donations, you’re not adding anything to the community, you’re leveraging it for selfish gain. Therefore, spam. I’m not going to encourage this behavior by watching or engaging with the video.

I hadn’t heard about the challenges involving storing hydrogen, so I’m finding this kind of interesting!

From my total layman appreciation of the article, it sounds like the issue is that within a containment vessel, the hydrogen, being the smallest atom, has a tendency to find every pit, gap, and crack. Which leads to embrittleing.

I’m a little confused here. What causes the actual embrittleing? Do they hydrogen molecules try to combine with other molecules and then it erodes the material?

It’s crank science, it relies on the tired light theory which is the flat earth of cosmology.

Edit

The results are a “smashing success” if you are willing to accept that the universe is substantially younger than we already know it to be.

I recommend you read the Discussion and Conclusions parts if not anything else. It’s pretty grim and contains a series of bald-faced “admissions” that this is shenanigans.

I can log on to anybody’s computer in the world, install Steam, and have full access to my entire game library.

I can make almost anybody I know (with limits) a “family member” and share my library.

I can stream my games from my computer to my phone.

My steam deck lets me play my entire library anywhere.

I see no personal benefit to using physical media anymore.

I guess a disclaimer would be that I trust Valve but you truthfully, I don’t trust all game companies/vendors.

Perhaps your woo detector needs some fine-tuning.

A vaporware public-relations stunt product described as being made from “bio-sourced” items LIKE ORANGE ZEST

Thanks. Woo woo confirmed. Article is 6 years old and shows a failed design purported to be more enviro-friendly. Articles has exactly the weasel-words you’d expect: “Bio-sourced” lmao

e: Also check this disclosure out from the bottom of the article “Disclosure: Michelin paid for my travel expenses to participate in the Movin’On conference.”

I would love to learn more because I’m smelling a lot of woo woo.
