Iβm a real dad of 2 kids under 3 so Iβm genuinely too tired to think of a funny way to wrap this up with a punchline. Sorry I really triedβ¦. I guess my exhaustion is a-parent.
You must say aloud what you wish to affect the probability of, and the new probability.
So the aura can activate the dust.
But how? I mean, in the series it is shown. I'm just saying, what are the limits?
It is not mentioned that it can be activated by the semblances, but by the aura directly.
Now let's see:
-The glyphs of the Schnees allow the manipulation of different types of Dust. For example, launching projectiles of dust.
-Through channeling the dust through Gambol Shroud, Blake can create clones of different types (Stone, ice, fire, etc.)
-Through Cinder's profile, she can manipulate the fire dust sewn on her clothes.
However, what else can be done? Can someone just come into contact with dust to activate a Crystal dust, just using the aura?
We have seen Hazel, using "Numbing Agent" to block the pain of injecting dust. However, his semblance does not increase dust control or decrease damage. His semblance only "block out pain".
So in theory someone else could inject dust into its body, only that it would be in great pain, but it could still use the dust to do things. (I don't know, imagine Adam injecting fire dust into his arm to shoot fire dust shots at Blake and Yang.
Or the Happy Huntresses injecting themselves with stone dust so they manipulate it to build walls of stone for Mantle).
But, is there another way to manipulate the dust? For example, if someone had to wear gloves with cooked fire dust, could they handle the fire dust from these gloves?
As mentioned, sewing dust on clothing is an old technique.
Or is it that you can only manipulate the dust of the sewn clothes if you have the appropriate semblance?
Now, if the aura can activate the dust, it would be possible to use the aura to prevent the dust from activating.
In general, these are potential ideas for fanfiction and applications that could be seen later in the canon.
But, what are your opinions? Or suggestions?
First off, here's the link to D6 Dungeons: https://www.d6dungeons.com/home
The TLDR is: Roll a number of d6's based on skill rank, take the highest. Advantage gives you +1 to your roll, Disadvantage gives you -1. You're aiming to beat a difficulty (3 is Easy, 5 is Moderate, 7 is Hard, up to 10 is possible). But how do you get higher than a 7 on a d6+1? Well, that's the part of the system I really like: any 1's you roll can be *added* to your roll, **saved, or given to someone else to use later**
So, yeah, basically I really like that idea of on every roll you make, you're potentially generating a resource to help not only yourself, but another party member. It feels like a dice system that really displays team work in a way that a lot of others don't. Suddenly my attack on the enemy is making it easier for my party member to land their follow-up attack!
But I randomly stumbled onto D6 Dungeons while searching for something else, and would love to know if this idea, or something like it, was ever expanded into a slightly meatier system that allowed for a bit more progression. Something like a PtbA or FitD or something.
Alternately, what are some systems that do naturally occurring teamwork *really* well?
Edit: By naturally occurring, I mean "happens without having to take a specific action", as in the example of being able to roll for my action, and as an aside I'm able to give you a bonus due to the result, whether I succeeded or not.
Silver has two naturally occurring isotopes. Ag-107 has an abundance of 51.82% and mass of 106.9 amu. Ag-109 has a relative abundance of 48.18% and a mass of 108.9 amu.
The periodic table would predict 108 for the most stable silver isotope, but there are only two stable isotopes of silver and 108 isn't one of them. Β Turns out the silver-107 and silver-109 are almost equally abundant, making the average atomic mass nearly 108. Β Once you know that the two isotopes have masses of nearly 107 and 109, you can determine which one is more abundant using the 107.9 g/mol shown on the periodic table. Β Because 107.9 is closer to 107 than it is to 109, then you know that silver-107 is slightly more abundant.
Through my research Iβve found a few compounds that are found in other plants besides cannabis which either closely mimic the effect of THC or have been found to attach to the CB1 or 2 receptors either as an agonist or antagonist.
Main two in mind come from Magnolia and Kava, both are CB1 agonists and some also affect CB2. Iβve tried the Kava cannabinoid extract in a drink and it felt just like D8/9. I also tried the highly refined magnolia extract (90% purity) and it was insanely strong for someone with minimal tolerance to THC. Iβm considering using it along with THC-free CBD distillate and terps in place of Delta 8 while Iβm job searching to prevent showing up hot on a pre employment drug test. Also magnolia extracts are legal pretty much everywhere so may be a good alternative to bring along with you on trips to places where cannabis isnβt legal yet. I donβt think the magnolia extract could be vaped in a disty cart but could maybe blend into vape juice.
What do you guys think? Have you tried any of these, and do you think they could be a promising direction to go in for people in places where alt noids and MJ (and even hemp) arenβt legal?
While I do believe the nitrate stuff is overblown because the number of nitrates and processed meat you'd have to eat to justify those studies would be ridiculous, but I always am very cautious. I was reading that celery powder and other natural nitrates are pretty much just as bad as the regular nitrates and preservatives we commonly see? How true is this? Is there definitive data on this? I would like to have from time to time some uncured bacon or sausage but if the data is strong enough to show there's no advantage I might just have to make it homemade with just salt.
When an upper limit is given for the supplemental form of a nutrient, do naturally occurring forms count towards the total? e.g. The UL for supplemental Niacin is 35mg. If I intake 20mg from food and 25mg from a daily vitamin, is that considered over the limit?
Basically I mean a general word to refer to this "phenomena," not a specific one to refer to a raccoon's mask.
The topic came up in a conversaion about PokΓ©mon -- if you're not familiar, PokΓ©mon is a series about mythical animals that battle each other, and a lot of them have features which were clearly intended by the artists to be evocative of clothing (or something else manmade) despite being merely a biological part of that creature's body within the in-universe fictional world. I mused that we need to come up with a word to refer to this phenomena, and my friend said that a word probably already exists. I expressed doubt at the prospect -- "I don't think the word already exists, because wouldn't such a word only be relevant in the PokΓ©mon universe? It's not like animals in our universe have pants or hats." He responded by citing the mask of a raccoon, which got me wondering...
...Does such a word exist?
does anyone have experience with Saw Palmetto, Nettle and grape seed as naturally occurring aromatase inhibitors? thanks
Bit of a noob here, I love the look of these crystals you can grow at home but I was wondering how they differ from crystals found in the naturally occurring world. Are borax and salt water crystals 'real' crystals?
Was wondering if you lovely ladies in gentlemen had any information on this. I've heard salvia is very dissociating but I thought it was just a very powerful psychedelic but I could be wrong. Oh I believe I have to make this post 100+ characters long so I guess I'll put in that I like to abuse ketamine to get kwabooshkied
Hello, all! It's been more than a hop and a skip since I've last posted on this subreddit, but I am back, not with a new, but more a refreshed question that may spark discussion between our members. I brought a similar discussion point up, I believe almost a year or so ago, but I feel it deserves, with more eloquence, to be brought up at least one more time, as I feel this is something worth pondering over.
I'm sure many of you have at least heard of the claimed phenomena known as Time Slips. There are countless stories and tales going back centuries of people who, at one moment are going about their daily lives as normal, and the next, are either cast forward or backwards in time. They stay there for a small, but non-fixed amount of time, and then are promptly tossed back to their own time. Cases are spread out all over the world, from the U.K. with one such example being the many from Liverpool, more in specificity, Bold Street in Liverpool, to Europe with places such as the Palace of Versailles, to even the United States with a supposed case of a man spontaneously appearing in New York City, only to be killed by a passing automobile and during inspection of the body finding only coins and papers from almost a century prior. If you feel so inclined, you can do some research of your own on the many claims by people on the net.
Now, it is easy enough to simply discount these as either tall tales, or hallucinations. But, let's not be too hasty and remember that we are discussing a subject which many still claim to be fantasy, impossible and mental illness to believe is attainable to humanity. Just like many other facets of science once were. Now, history tells us that in cases where encounters are spread across such a long amount of time, in so many places, even if there are liars, they are still started by some grain of truth. So, how can we apply this here?
Well, first, let's say that there is a possibility that Time Slips, are indeed, a true phenomenon. Not of supernatural origins, as some claim them to be, but of an as yet unknown scientific origin. This would lead to two conclusions we could put forward. First, it proves that Time Travel is attainable for humanity, because of the second conclusion. Time Travel is a naturally occurring part of the universe. And if something is naturally occurring, then it can be replicated in an artificial manner, or harnessed to be used in an unnatural manner.
This also brings up several questions that would need
... keep reading on reddit β‘I really want black snow in a certain important planet of mine.
And I was wondering how that could work
The planet is an alternate version of Earth btw. With very minor differences aside from History being really fucked. Red plants instead of green, green hair instead of gingers, black snow instead of white.
Wondering if there's some way I can "crack a code" here by finding something that matches the profile of my skin's natural make up
