Minimax can take upwards of 10 minutes to respond with a message. Is there something wrong with my settings?

I'm using Sillytavern by the way, and when using my bots it takes anywhere from 3 to 10 minutes for the AI to respond. Is there something in my OR settings that could be messing with this?

Women being the first reporters proves the ressurection?

They say if the Resurrection was a myth, then women wouldn't have been the first to report it since women were considered lesser back in ancient Rome and surely a man would have been first to make it look better. Is this even a good argument?

And speaking of which, what about the rest of the arguments of the Ressurection sounding like an actual historical record more than a myth?

Zero games are a nightmare. Is it just me?

These games are kind of absurd compared to the X and even classic series. Like, I've played the original Mega Man without savestates or checkpoints and that was a cakewalk compared to even the early levels of Zero 2. Is it just me, or did they crank the difficulty to absurd levels?

Am i playing it wrong? So far I've been playing it like any of the X games. That got me through Zero 1 with enough trial and error, but this game I can't even beat the 4 first "easy" levels.

Will this work?

I will admit, I'm not the kind of person who particularly enjoys Justplay's games for long periods of time. They can be entertaining for a few minutes, but I prefer like, actual games on console and PC over mobile in general, and super simple games like these I don't enjoy playing for more than 15 minutes or so.

So I was thinking, since Justplay apparently cares about ad revenue more than anything and will reward users accordingly, why not play something else and just put on the ads in the background? I know I need some coins or else I won't get anything, so maybe I could play 2 games for 15 minutes each to get about a million coins then do this strategy. The idea is to just check in every few minutes to put on another ad after this, maybe play the game for a few couple rounds/levels each time. Maybe just do this while doing work around the house too.

I cannot take this anymore

My intrusive thoughts are mainly moral OCD, confusion over the most taboo topics or just deranged and absurd depravities, and beliefs that some things are tainted with the most vile things imaginable and I taint myself by engaging with it.

I cannot take the madness and depravity it has led me into. I just want the truth on morals and what is right and good and what is bad and should not be done, and this makes that impossible without becoming a motherfucking slut myself in what I believe. I cannot take the pity of others that try to tell me it's not my fault. If spiraling into entertaining such thoughts, be it out of trauma or whatever, isn't my fault, then whose is it? It must be someone's, and thus it is mine by default and my moral failure by default, and I cannot accept any other answer.

I can't take this shit anymore. I must destroy the evil abominations no matter what, no matter matter matter what what what. How shall I do this?

How to get the first 20$ faster?

I played for an hour and got 3 million coins and got 3.77$ out of it all. I watched alot of booster ads too.

I'm new to Justplay so I get i won't get paid much at first. But is there a better tactic than just spamming the boost whenever I can?

Why are the X series final bosses so hard?

I've played through all of Megaman X 1-4 at this point. And let me tell you, X2 is the only one I've beaten, be it casually or Buster Only, because that game's Sigma is actually reletively easy compared to the rest of the end bosses. The rest are nightmares so far and I've been stuck on the final Sigma fight on those since I first got to them.

Why did they make the final Sigma fights so hard? X1 has Wolf Sigma, X4 the nightmare that is the 3 phase gauntlet with the final form(s) being some Kaizo crap, and so on. Is it really just a skill issue or is there something I'm missing on how to fight them?

And I refuse to use Rookie Hunter Mode on bosses(the final boss especially), so I'm kinda just stuck rn.

Rehabilitation of criminals?

One of the most absolute and sacred dogmas, if you will, of Conservative politics is the idea that criminals are simply criminal by nature, and cannot be rehabilitated. And that in fact, the best thing to do is punish them severely for all their crimes, nonstop, as to hopefully deter them from doing it again or deter others from committing crimes. As it's commonly phrased, "mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent".

Is there any truth to this or is this just Conservatives making excuses to stick to tradition over reality? From what I hear rehab doesn't help severe criminals like murderous or worse.

What about illegal immigrants and open borders?

I just want to know what the general consensus on illegal immigration is. Like, we can all agree people who sneak in illegally have at least gotta go until they can get approved legit right? I mean, I'm all for making it easiser to get approved than it currently is, I just don't think an open border is the solution. Open borders historically have almost never been good for any nation in the long run.

Just want your thoughts on the matter, thanks.

Is there any shame in using Rookie Hunter Mode?(X series)

I'm playing on the Legacy Collection, and I honestly don't like how brutal the levels can be. I love challenging boss fights so I turn Rookie Hunter off for the bosses, but I have a large backlog of like, most of the Megaman games so I really just want to get through them. Is there any shame in using Rookie Hunter mode since I kinda suck ass at the levels?

The only time I turn Rookie Hunter off for the main stage is when I'm doing Buster Only, but that's because Buster Only actually makes it fun for me. There's nothing wrong with this I hope?

People who are sadistic often have low emotional intelligence

I'm not saying this is universally the case, some sadists(be they secretly sadistic or overtly) absolutely understand what they're doing and yet get off to it because they're just that evil.

But in most cases, their sadism is because they believe it's justified and good for the person in question, or good for themselves to inflict it. These people are emotionally dumb, have low EQ, whatever you want to call it. They don't understand that such ideas of justice or fairness are not actually fair or just, and only hurt people even more without fixing much of anything. I speak of people making mistakes and then one person bullies them for it. Of someone who's wronged and then becomes obsessed with degrading, denigrating or making said person suffer nonstop. This does tie in, as well, to my last post on "policing behavior".

Now if you struggle with these tendencies this is not an indictment against you. If anything it's only human nature to respond in such a way. But it still is something that if one truly understood how their own emotions worked and how to handle them, and how people really work internally, they would realize this is bad for people and solves nothing, and a more understanding and compassionate answer would solve things better for everyone in most cases.

That's just my 2 cents on the issue, feel free to comment your thoughts.

Anyone else love Omega Factor?

Astro Boy Omega Factor is often praised as one of the best games on the GBA, but what do you all think of it? I personally have it in my top 5 beat em ups of all time as well as my favorite Gameboy Advance game(sorry Drill Dozer), personally considering it better than alot of modern ones.

Omega Factor has its own canon and continuity going on, but the characters seem to be based off the 80s series mainly. It even has cameos from all sorts of characters from other Tezuka series. Overall it's an amazing experience I recommend to anyone if possible.

I was talking to a Christian friend of mine on Discord. When I brought up that Jesus' resurrection would be known historical fact if it really happened, he claimed that we do have records of early Christian testimony of the resurrection(who seemed truly convinced it was true), via Tacitus Josephus and also secular records of Paul's letter to the Corrinthians.

What do you make of this? I'm not convinced by it, after all Tacticus would surely record the dead supposedly raised alongside Jesus if any of this was true right?

And I mean this Once Upon a Katamari has consistently, through it's entirety, been the hardest Katamari experience I've ever had. I've played through all of Damacy, We Love, and Forever, and this game takes the cake in terms of both consistent and peak difficulty. And i'm only like halfway through the game! What the hell???

It is so much harder to figure out and to achieve the goal than in any other game. Why did they crank the difficulty so much? I mean I don't mean to complain but it would be nice if the game just chilled out a bit lol. Even the items don't make it that much easier imo.

I mean mainly Protestant teaching and beliefs on spirituality. When I say psychological truths I don't mean therapy practices or beliefs, I mean known psychological and neurological workings and general scientifically proven truths in the field of how the mind and brain work that common Protestant teaching/doctrine contradicts and baselessly claims are false.

This is for the purpose of my deconstruction, so input is appreciated.

Christians like to take failed prophecy like the Nile River drying up, Damascus being left uninhabited, Egypt being conquered by Nebuchadnezzar, ect. As symbolic or metaphorical prophecies regarding the end time, and things like "Egypt" or "Nebuchadnezzar" actually being hidden metaphors for other, modern day things. Is this really reasonable to claim though? I don't think so. There's nothing in the text hinting at this being a secret "this will actually mean something else far in the future", and it's generally agreed by Bible teachers from what I understand that these did have an immediate and literal meaning at the very least.

What do you think though? Is this just another case of "holy spirit drunkenness" where they have some sudden trip on "holy revelation" just to justify their texts?

Edit: In the original Hebrew, the earliest known manuscripts of the Nebuchadnezzar and Egypt prophecy literally state that Egypt will be destroyed and utterly conquered, and that failed to come to pass. The interpretation of him merely invading and looting Egypt briefly or taking one town from them was a later version of that script after the fact of what actually happened, clearly saving face/reinterpreting after the prophecy failed. If that's not a caught-red-handed case of failed prophecy in the historical timeline, I don't know what is.

For me personally, I believe in Heaven after this life, and also possibly a Hell. But I believe if there's a god they understand eternal hell in the sense Christians or Muslims believe in is unjust. If there's a Hell, I believe it's likely meant as a kind of purgatory before certain souls can enter Heaven, with some serving longer and more severe sentances than others, though with a focus on rehabilitation rather than purely punishment.

Call it cringe but I believe that's the most logical outcome if whatever god there is had something planned for us after this life. What's your personal belief?

Ive come to realize I can't blame myself for the mental spiraling or the "problematic coping" for the most part. To rage and make invisible enemies in my mind to destroy was my mind's defense mechanism after traumatic experiences, because I felt threatened by the memory of things or by ideas I associated with it.

Like a cornered animal lashing out basically, it was primal fear instinct, and It was what my mind and spirit did to survive the memory of such things. It was a "fight" response more than anything, but I truly felt I had no other choice. I truly felt there was no escape otherwise and that these things "desevred it", but that was all just a broken mind and spirit trying to cope with traumatic events that now felt like monsters encroaching on me at any moment, especially after my religion told me these percieved abominations plauging me were "sinful temptations".

I would destroy the thought any way I could, even if it hurt me to do so and made me spiral even more. But perhaps no one was to blame for all this. I feel much freer and happier already without the fear of becoming a monster just by fighting off the monsters in my head.
