  • Used to be I never cried at anything. Ever. Then I started watching the saddest shows I could find specifically for the purpose of making me cry because I figured that wasn’t healthy. Now I’m a total crybaby and I gotta admit, I’m happier for it.

    I used to be a massive weeb so most of my sad moments are from anime, but if you really want to bawl your eyes out, Violet Evergarden and A Silent Voice are my two go to picks for when I want to absolutely destroy myself.

    When I was younger and not so smart, I made every fucked up candy mess I found online. I’m talking battery acid spaghetti, the rollup-gusher sandwich, and of course… the ultra stuffed oreo.

    For the ultra stuffed oreo you take an entire pack of double stuffeds (this was before mega stuffed) and carefully remove the icing from each cookie, to form into one single tower of stuffing between two cookies.

    Out of everything I tried, that was easily the worst. I wanted to vomit by the end of it. Not even unicorn ramen compared. I learned from that day forward that the stuffing is there to compliment the cookie, not the other way around. Now I only buy normal stuffed oreos, and I am happier for it.

    meme format is “Hey guys” “incorrect name” “That’s not what I’m called” though the last line is covered up here.

    Character is Bridget, a famous trans character from the fighting game Guilty Gear, who became a meme to misname after someone mistakenly called her “Brisket”.




  • When programming, data is stored in variables. In a weakly typed language you define a variable and you can put anything in it. Numbers, text, whatever. In a strongly typed language when you define a variable you also have to define what it can take. If you define a variable that can hold numbers, it can only hold numbers and never text or anything else.

    Weak typing makes code easier to write and more flexible while strong typing makes code more secure and harder to accidentally break. It’s mostly a preference thing in the end.










  • As others have said, the old monster hunter games are best played as a turn based battle. Take the fights slow. Stay safe and watch exactly what the monster does. Only go in for an attack when you know it’s safe. You might time out on a few monsters the first time, but every hunt you will get faster, as you figure out both the monster and your own moveset. The caveat though is you need to make sure you’re paying attention! Just going by feel will get you wrecked and you won’t learn anything doing it. Always be watching and analyzing. You can spend 10 hours throwing yourself at the monster and get 10% better, or you can spend 1 hour learning the monster and get 50% better.

    Another thing to be aware of is that these games are capital S Slow. Fights are going to take forever, and that’s only going to get worse when you get into the guild quests, which are intended to be played with 4 person parties. Singleplayer health scaling was not added until World. If you’ve been wailing on a monster and it’s just not going down, don’t get discouraged. As long as you’re doing damage and not getting hit, you’ve got 50 whole minutes to kill the monster. You’ll get it eventually, I promise. Just keep at it and at some point you’ll break through, and the thrill of having conquered what once seemed so impossible will bring you a rush like no other! Good luck, and happy hunting.


  • If you mean chapter 14, post Edge Knot City

    When you’re taking Lou to the incinerator

    You’re right at the end, there’s no more bosses. It’s just a bit of hiking and then a bunch of cutscenes. Then you’re in the epilogue and time rewinds so you can keep playing. Might be a bit of a weird place to start playing again though, as you just boot up the game after so many years just to watch a cutscene or two and then credits roll lol.

    If you mean chapter 6, before reaching Edge Knot City

    When Deadman takes the baby to recalibrate it

    As you can probably guess by the chapter numbers, you are nowhere near the end of the game, sorry. There IS a bossfight, but you only have to do the first section alone, then you reunite and do the actual main fight together.
