Made me think of the meme where the guy in the tank wants to get closer so he get hit them with his sword.

Brahma's black?

Reminded by a picture posted in the FSR. Is there name for a concept in which a defense trait instead ends up helping a species propagate far more than if it had worked as intended? The evolution version of failing upwards? Natural selection's bank error in your favor?

I was trying to offend @Lanx and @Soygen at the same time.

Video games. Oh, for mining? Not sure really, haven't considered mining, so I haven't pondered that question.

Excelling at your job is toxic masculinity.

So, if you walk by the malt liquor, you're going to get checked?

That's what shower time is. Used to be what driving to and from was as well.

I've tried disabling automatic updates for our Windows 10 and 11 testing environments. I don't necessarily have a problem with the updates themselves, but having an environment that changes itself is antithetical to a stable testing regime. More often than not, those fucking things find a way...

It is weird that they haven't fleshed out the private leagues more. There's quite a lot of low hanging fruit available. Instead they're working on Chris' self flagellation league. I was mainly asking to see just how much you were willing to die on said hill ;) Fair enough. But that doesn't...

What would you pay for private leagues where certain mechanics, even non-core ones, were enabled? IDK if map density should be a positive for a mechanic. Should a mechanic be judged by itself without the implicit economic value?

Does that work on their app?

Sounds lazy. "PoE won't be getting an AH. And that's a good thing."

What's with the question mark?

Planning out your build is the best part of PoE. Arguably, PoB is a better game than PoE. Someone translate that into Nirgonese.

If you add cottage cheese while cooking your rice, the curds expand and absorb the extra water. Only noobs need to strain their cooked rice.

One day, Big P is going to find a partner with no preconceived misconceptions(directly relevant to him) and he'll have no idea what to do with himself.

Give me the fat, it's exactly what this dry steak of a season needs. Amos and Peaches had *one* scene each last episode. It's not a valid point by itself. Having to make more episodes is not inherently worse, budgetary issues aside. Which probably is a factor here, but it's likely going to...

What a shitty excuse. "At least we didn't make it ridiculously too long!". Take the amount of episodes required to tell the damn story well. If that's 13, who the fuck is going to complain about that? It sure as fuck isn't these specific 6 though. We're probably going to find out they've...

Do Lightborn even shit?

You probably count if you just browsed over it and were like "wtf is this?" while it annoyingly autoplayed. There's a reason you can't turn that stupid fucking feature off.

I mean in context of the characters. They're all acting like it's some novel idea. The drop in quality is on par, not the season itself. Season 8 GoT:Whatever notes Benioff and Weiss had::Seasons 5 and 6 of the Expanse:Books 5 and 6. I wasn't wild about books 4-6, I wanted more...

Definitely on par with Season 8 of GoT. Maybe not in overall lack of quality, but at least James SA Corey proved they can write, so the decline in quality is the same. All the drama and tension is contrived. I don't want any of these bickering idiots to win. I feel like I'm watching clones...

No one's going to defend that book. As an introduction to a series, it has serious issues. If you like the writing style, essentially a lack of inorganic exposition almost to a fault, keep on reading. If it helps, each time Tattersail's weight is described, just mentally picture one of...

I'm pretty sure I should still anchor the output from the water softener regardless. Is it better to use an expansion tank(I think that's what my heating system has) or water arrestor? If the latter, a lot of the reviews and guides are based at the appliance instead of a more centralized...

Is Erikson back in form? No philosophical melodrama? You guys are making it sound like it's of Deadhouse Gates or Memories of Ice in quality.

I have a similar problem with my Schiit Modi 2 DAC. Skimping on proper soldering seems to be the issue. Others have reported baking the part long enough to cause the solder to reflow will fix the issue. All I know is that sometimes, I power down my PC at night for an update, my DAC won't...

So, if my house is on fire, I don't think anyone's going to give a shit that you trimmed the hedges in the meantime.

How do I know I want an arrestor? There's a fair amount of pipe that's not anchored and the motion could be caused by expected valve behavior and pressure. Not sure I have the tools or knowledge for installing that. I'll admit I get anxious in this area because I know I don't know enough...

I thought those were for resting the pipe. Those will stop upward motion too?

Got my water softener replaced recently. What was originally copper is now partially PEX. I think the previous install depended upon the rigidity of the copper. When the valve opens and water flows out of the softener(into the house), that pipe gets a bit wobbly for a few seconds. What would...

Cast is a requirement for boiling blood. 50% more damage seems too large to ignore on bosses. And because it seems not every bosses will grant their curse to casts, or some of them in a shitty way(Aphrodite), or some of them that prevents the cast from sticking, you can't rely on cast for...

Finally got Hades down. Used Achilles' Spear, but I don't think much of my damage came from attacks nor casts. I want to say triple dash strike while maintaining boiling blood and privileged status was most of my damage. 40 attempts, almost maxed out mirror, preferred Athena boons for...

They should have delayed the event two weeks.

Not sure I understand. You don't get more reward stacks per 20% delirium?

Is that the actual excuse they gave? That's some shitty planning if so. Still doesn't excuse spacing out mostly automated leagues a bit more. 3.17 still has some high expectations, regardless of delay. They're handling of Scourge was/is so poor that the only way it makes sense is if 3.17...

Squishing all the events together sure makes a ton of sense now! 3.17 is gonna have to be a banger of a league.

I'm having trouble getting past the Minotaur and his friend. I have a few issues that I'm unsure how to resolve. How integral(to beating the game) is using Cast? I suck at aiming, especially while trying to dodge, and the pseudo cooldown nature the skill means I basically never use it...

Did you just assume spiderman's itfriend's gender?

That's what the parentheses were for. Drummer does all the work and Holden for a QB sneak to take it in? IDK, 3 episodes left, killing off Drummer and Holden meaningfully finishing her work? Seems like a stretch.
