You generally find them in caches on the map when playing (highlighted beacons you can see from a fair distance). The super credits are automatically given to everyone when one person picks it up.
Technically, there’s a way to farm these indefinitely by essentially replaying the same map. But you can’t unlock the guns/capes/gear in each warbond without medals, which you can only get by doing missions.
Personally, I like the gameloop and how microtransactions are done enough that I don’t bother with the “farm” since credits are so easy to gain overtime. The real grind is the medals and samples which you need a team to gather efficiently.
I like to collect what I call “Good Boy” comics. Anybody know of any that aren’t already in here? The comics should include the phrase “good boy” or at least allude to the idea....
Cerberus is singularly the goodest boi in the world. He’s three good boys in one - you can’t beat that. Any single boi you name is logically outnumbered by the sheer concentration of good boi in one being.
honestly not trying to be a shill but there was a brief period that caught a glimpse of a post-piracy world where there were very little streaming services that had all the content you could want. It moved me away from piracy because of the convenience, library, and being able to share with friends and family.
Ideally a post-piracy world would have the options for uncensored/original versions of content, the ability to buy and store said content locally and own in perpetuity, with a price point for access to a vast library from a very small number of services. As many have said, the way to combat “piracy” is to offer a service better than piracy itself.
What’s that phenomenon where as a child you were told a “fact”, internalised it, and lived your life presuming it was true until someone points out how obviously wildly untrue it was that you momentarily question reality?
Because I was today’s years old when I realised how ridiculous cutting complete blood flow would be. Thank you (genuinely!)
Funnily, the animal was named after the greek mythological figure of the same name. Wife of Typhon and considered the mother of monsters - including Cerberus.
It’s sad to see parents one up the children instead of elevate them
I’m really confused about this. On one hand (✋), I can see how dating an autistic person would be amazing because we would just understand each other on another level. We would get each other’s emotions, meltdowns, joy, special interests, hyperfocus, communication style, etc. Also, there’s no NT partner to miss whatever...
I dated a NT who loved my rants. This was before I got my diagnosis. they’re out there and I’d agree it’s more about compatibility - just keep living your life and see who you come across :)
absolutely brutal news to hear. it cannot be overstated how much of an impact this man’s works had influenced not only action and comedy manga but culture as a whole. rip on of the greats
Not a fan of the genre so take what I say with a grain of salt but I’ve always viewed it as the destillation of the “fish out of water” and power fantasy combined into one. Both reasonably popular tropes tied into one.
So it’s already readily consumeable for the targeted demo and relatively easy to write/draw since the you don’t need to worry about developing a distinct character trait/trope (he’s unique/powerful) or unique narrative framing. It’s not necessary bad, just easy to produce and readily consumable. It’s the equivalent of the step-fantasy or fast food. Not evil or bad, just not particularly unique.
Then you eventually get amazing works (Jack In The Box’s Chick n tater melt, Overlord, Eminence In The Shadow) that either push the best traits to 11 or are a direct commentary on the genre itself.
Formally, this is an example of positive punishment where the addition of a stimulus decreases the likelihood of the target behavior occuring again.
Negative reinforcement refers to subtracting/removing a stimulus to increase the likelihood of a target behavior (think reducing a prison sentence for good behavior).
If I’m reading this correctly, the findings of this particular paper are more directed towards a relationship between stress/anxiety (such as life-challenging events or religious-related existiential stress) and religious beliefs rather than critical thinking via hippocampal volume (the neural section associated with emotional responses).
It’s interesting that there was a pattern of hippocampal atrophy however they do not definitively claim the direction of a causal relationship or if even is one (such as correlational).
Interesting read that sheds into how religiosity may induce additional stressors from having a specific belief system.
I’m looking for some small content creators who’s content has not been influenced by the potential of making money. In the early days of YouTube there was mostly trash, but then a few small channels started using formats, using specific styles and actually standing out above a pile shit....
I do appreciate creators who do their own content despite being keenly aware of the algorithm.
Infrequent long-form content creators to check out:
Tom O’Regan: British(?) topical/interest reviews, personal recommendations include his Obra Dinn video, Sickest Chess Match, and The Biggest Mistake In Music History
B-Mask: I support him on Patreon so pardon the bias but he likes to take his time creating in-depth and clear retrospectives on topics he’s interested in, managing to get you interested in The Fantastic Four, Jems, and 2000s video game trilogies. Not long form for the sake of $$$ but insightful analysis of the history, themes, and personal deconstruction of such topics.
Also check out Moth Light Media for evolutionary biology, and Lines in Motion for manga and art analysis.
More frequent but short form (under 4 minutes) creators to check out are few and wide, 5sf are back-ish but carrying the torch are:
CrackerMilk are a bunch of good aussie lads making short sketches for quick laughs, with excellent timing and shooting.
Valueselect is a personal fave where he was doing sketches a year or two ago but is experimenting with yt shorts quite well. The majority of his comedy surrealist/fantasy/80’s styling music are absolute hits.
Hope these are good starting points, I found these guys from browsing similar threads.
