So it used to be on kinja that if you shrunk the window enough, the fucking slideshow view would shut down and you could just read the article. But ever since the latest update, you’re stuck with slideshow - more clicks, more ad revenue, folks! - no matter what.

For anyone wondering what the game is actually like compared to the originals, It’s a really faithful remake aside from the graphics, shortly:

So a cartoon battlefield is too much to handle.

There is nothing worse than looking for support on something and seeing on the website or whatever "for technical help join our discord". Then there are four hundred conversations going, memes, a dozen channels, and then I have to figure out how to get notified of someone responds to me but also not get a thousand…

Not only that, but it’s perhaps one of the worst, most convoluted, and most confusing user interfaces of all time. It’s also a medium you never need to use in your life, ever. You miss nothing by not using it.

Recently I finally broke down and jumped into Discord to see what all the fuss is about. I don’t get it. It’s basically just a chat room and one that’s kind hard to follow along with too. I guess I’ve just been on the internet long enough now that there’s nothing new under the HTML sun.

This is like the “criminals will just get guns anyway” argument. Sure, there will always be a couple that slip through, but an overwhelming amount of the time these rules are effective.

Anything between 5's and 10's inclusive would block an equal amount of possible straight flushes, so I don’t think it matters so long as the pair is in that range.

Yes, taking three aces already reduces the amount of possible opponents with royal flushes to only one. Taking any other card in that hand slightly reduces the chances of someone getting it even further and eliminates it entirely if you pick the remaining suit.

10s reduce the odds of a royal flush as well as a regular straight flush

You have to worry about any straight flush — not just a royal flush. With a 10, you just need to worry about the straight flush starting from 5 or lower.

Dread’s final boss… I think I had to look a guide on how to avoid some attacks. But mostly, it was about remembering when it’s convenient to parry, when to charge missiles, and to not push your luck to land one more shot.
