Or is it just me?

My first time beating cursed odyssey purgatory, after all this time!

​

I saw someone do a post about commando gattleing pea witg infernosquashwood. I decided to ditch some of the other spots that were filled with something i dont remember, electing to use nuclear squash inside squash pumpkins. I had 4 more but i ended up replacing them with cryolina reapers since my obsidian spike mines were getting chewed up.

​

Would be very cool to see the devs add a synergy for comando pea and squashwood, or some other type of torchwood fusion.

The death of King Henry II of France and the decline of Jousting:

King Henry II of France was the last Duke of Brittany before its absorption by the Crown lands of france, foe to the Habsburgs in one of the Italian wars, and of course the King of france from 1547 to 1559. Most of this is an afterthought though, as many people with random knowledge of history know him as the guy that died in a Jousting tournament.

Jousting was the sport of kings, requiring equipment out of reach of the the peasant classes of society, military training of ranks that only dukes and above were exposed to, and horses healthy and strong enough to carry the men and their equipment at high speeds twords each other.

The heavy suits of armor did a fairly good job of keeping the wooden jousts from penetrating the relatively soft bodies of the contenders, distributing the blunt force of the impact and deflecting any splinters that could puncture the skin. But the helmet had to have some openings for the fighters to see their opponent, of course. Now they could have been designed to not open, but traditionally we're made that way to allow face to face talking between rounds without necessitating the removal of the entire helmet.

One fateful day, during a Jousting tournament with other political dignitaries and family connections, Henry II's helmet was punctured by the joust of his opponent slipping upwards with force against his metal chest plate. It slipped in the opening of his helmet, forcibly sending splintered wood through one of his eyes. The spectacle of blood pouring from his helmet sent his wife and daughter into shock, sending both them and many women in the crowd into fainting while men in the front of the crowd and on the field to grab the king and take him to the royal doctors.

After this accident leading to his death, Jousting started its decline from the sport of kings, to a dangerous waste of time now only recreated at the Renaissance Fair in your local town. For a long time, it was a completely dead sport with only historical records to revive it as a spectacle for the demonstration of the medieval era. While its not likely to have been a mainstay into modern times if this incident never happened, its still a fun fact to point out the exact moment where a sport started its downward spiral.

The death of Dale Earnhardt and the decline of stock car racing:

Speaking of Downward Spiral, Emp(eror)Lemon made an amazing breakdown of the life of Dale Earnhardt on YouTube, and is a video I highly suggest if you dont have any interest in NASCAR like I did before watching it. Without plagarizing too much of his video here for spoilers, ill go through some of the bigger parts of the story here.

Dale Earnhardt was born April 29th, 1951 as the third child to another legendary Stock car racer, Ralph Earnhardt. Like EmpLemon said, growing up watching his father slide around on dirt tracks in the early days did 2 things. It instilled an idea of greatness in being the best racer in the world, and taught him an aggressive and overbearing racing style that would earn him the nickname "The Intimadator".

And also, like EmpLemon said, if he had not followed in his father's footsteps, and got an office job in his hometown of Kannapolis, North Carolina, he might still be alive today. But following his father's legacy, he went on to be one of the best with a long list of failures, victories, and 7 NASCAR Cup Series Championships, tying with other greats like Richard Petty and Jimmie Johnson.

While he was tied up in the black #3 under his long running racing team, he started his own to include his son Dale Earnhardt Jr. And close friend Michael Waltrip, keeping them under his wing and mentorship throughout the rest of his life.

The rise of restrictior plates in vehicles came as a response to a record breaking qualifying laps pushing stock cars above F1 cars, which were designed with handling under those speeds in mind. At speeds higher than 212mph, stock cars had enough lift from air slipping under the body to send them flying, and into a series of crashing corner rolls down the angled asphalt of the tracks. No one HATED the restrictior plates more than Dale, even being quoted as saying "its gonna kill someone".

Even though he became one of the best racer with restrictior plates installed, some even saying he could see the jet streams coming from the exhaust of cars in front of him so he could time his passes perfectly, he was right about the danger of restrictior plates. Instead of a free flowing system of cars and obstacles around the track, the plates made all the cars the same speed and forced them into what looked like rush hour traffic at 200+mph. One slip up from one racer could turn 20 cars into piles of scrap within minutes, throwing around their drivers like paper dolls. And of course, Dale was the first and possibly last victim of the restrictior plates.

On February 18th, 2001 in the final lap of the Daytona 500 (a specific race he has struggled against, and won after many attempts just years prior) Dale was in 3rd place coming up to the finish line. His close friend Michael Waltrip was first, and his son Dale jr was in second.

It became clear that he wasnt trying to win. He was holding off the congested crowd behind his team to prevent any last second overtakes, as the restrictior plates made it very difficult to pass more than one car length in any reasonable amount of time, even without the aggressive tactics keeping them away from his team. Just a small bump from Ken Schrader gave his vehicle more momentum than he could control, sending his vehicle into the outside wall of the stadium and creating a heap of cars tumbling down.

What would have been an story book ending was turned into a tragedy. Michael Waltrip winning his first Daytona 500 with his older brother commentating the win with the rest of his team and leader behind him. But the cameras paned to a pile of smoking cars in the grass below the track.

Dale Earnhardt was killed instantly by a basilar skull fracture, a type of break at the base of the skull and the top of the spine, causing a leaking of cerebrospinal fluid and (in high speeds crashes like his) an almost instant disconnect of the brain and the rest of the body.

His fans say he really wouldn't have wanted it any other way. His best friend and son in first and second, with empty track and sunny skies ahead of them...

The death of Dale Earnhardt was an earthquake to the NASCAR world. Almost the equivalent of Tom Brady dying in the middle of the Superbowl, or Tiger Woods dying just two strokes away from a golden jacket. His death bringing along wave after wave of safety equipment, new car standards, and half measures that never addressed the source of the problem that restrictior plates made.

Nowadays, NASCAR fans are a dying breed. The newer generation asking "why was a sport where cars go in circles ever interesting to anyone but dumb southern Hicks?" While never knowing the trials and tribulations that the legends went through to get to the top.

I bought a galaxy watch 4 and have done over 20 updated back to back just to unlock all of the watch faces and I'm still unable to get full functionality of it. Ive reset the watch 4 times, updated my phone, and have even given remote access to someone on the support line and let them fiddle with my settings while I sat back and played video games for an entire hour (poor guy)

But no matter what i do, I get stuck in an endless loop trying to connect my Samsung account to my watch. I go to download the app, and it says "open accounts and backup on your watch to sign in", and when I open my settings on my watch, it sends me to a page to download the Samsung account app. When I click download on the account app, it says "open accounts and backup on your watch to sign in, and the loop continues over and over with no end in sight.

Does anyone have ANY resources i can follow to find all of this at? Has anyone been down this route and found an answer? I mean like, come on. At this point ill gladly accept any 3rd party applications or advice on how to jailbreak the watch just to get half of the functionality that should be easily accessible right out of the box.

Please to give me any links to any fixes below. Ive looked over the internet and the only thing I can find is other reddit posts having the same issues.
