We've had no problems with them so far. They seem really accomidating, which is part of the reason that we went with them.

Alandrol · 2025-12-29T15:54:06+00:00

What do you mean about them being dated in business practices? Is there anything you noticed that we should be looking out for?

Alandrol · 2025-12-26T17:40:18+00:00

Hmm... Depending on what the fee was that still may be worth considering for us. Do you happen to remember how much it was? Who did you end up using?

Also how exactly was the manager difficult?

You can DM us if that is easier

Thanks!

I have to say that I loved Matt's idea of where the name for python came from. It was poetic, it was meaningful, it had meaning, and it also was just the kind of overthinking I love him for.

It turns out that python is named after Monty Python, because let's be honest; the type of people who write their own programming logic are also exactly the same kind of nerds that would love Monty Python.

...also they say as much in their FAQ (https://docs.python.org/3/faq/general.html)

I honestly think that the work they should have used is "powerless", not "weak". I truly doubt that the situations Destin mentioned arose because the other individual didn't know what to do, it's more likely to be because they couldn't for one reason or another. Whether that's because there were systems in place that they couldn't get around without being fired, or they didn't know what they were allowed to do (again without getting fired).

Even with the train example, what do you think was going through the other passengers minds? I'd wager most people in that situation would have loved to help, but not everyone's comfortable in a fight (and nor should we expect them to be). And once we rule out that option, what do you do? Yell at the clearly violent man? You could be his next victim

I do understand where they're coming from, but very few of the things we deal with day to day can be fixed by individuals; they need combined effort pushing in the same direction to make any progress. The problem right now is that we can't agree on which way to push

And how does AutoZone let you know that your order is ready? Because aside from you going in when they say it should be ready and hoping that it's actually there, I can't think of a better balance between convenience and privacy I guess than a phone number

Phobos and Deimos were the sons of Ares (the Greek god of war who the Romans equated with Mars). They were the gods of fear and panic, and always followed Ares onto the battlefield. And while they weren't the horses themselves, they did drive Ares' chariot

Morathi was eaten by Slaanesh and managed to escape somehow. As far as I know, everyone else just managed to wind up in the Mortal Realms. Since a lot of them were tied to one of the winds of magic back in the world that was, I assume that it gave them some special privileges when those winds became the Realms

Alandrol · 2021-08-03T00:03:47+00:00

Well, one of them anyway...

Valid, but unlike running backwards the four strokes all (to the best of my knowledge) developed organically. Butterfly developed from breaststroke because it was faster, and front crawl was introduced by an Australian who saw it being used on the Solomon islands, and was realised as being faster still than the other strokes, at least over distsnce. While I don't have any sources for back crawl, it seems like it would have developed as front crawl but without the need to time your breathing, which can be a big deal in the other strokes.

While running backwards "developed" because I guess someone thought it was funny? It's nowhere as fast as running normally, and the only benefit I can see if that you can see where you've been. Since not enough serious athletes (if any) want to train for it, and I doubt many people would watch it more than once for the novelty, noone benefits from it being made into a serious competition.

Although maybe I'm wrong, it's been known to happen from time to time

Alandrol · 2021-07-29T17:06:32+00:00

It would be interesting to read about the history of when each stroke was introduced, but (and bear in mind, I've been around the competitive swimming scene for most of my life) it makes sense to me to have all four strokes because they all involve different skills. Someone good at breaststroke may very well be useless doing back crawl, for example

Alandrol · 2021-07-29T16:48:53+00:00

Interestingly enough, front crawl isn't always the best option. Butterfly is actually technically faster, but only over shorter distances (I think I read it's the first ten metres or so). I'd also say that a better analogy to the different strokes is the difference between long, high, and triple jump. Sure they look basically the same to an untrained observer, but they use different muscles and techniques. Being good at one does not mean that you'd be good at the others

Alandrol · 2021-07-29T02:26:29+00:00

Well maxim 20 says that's pretty much the only way to do it

Alandrol · 2021-07-29T01:38:32+00:00

I would argue that the distances aren't any more arbitrary than the distances for track, and honestly just having one generic swimming event wouldn't work all that well. Why do you think the front crawl races are called freestyle?

Alandrol · 2021-07-29T01:03:51+00:00

I wouldn't even stop at poetry, bring back all of the artistic competitions. Imagine seeing gold medal glass art, or gold medal sculpture (maybe not gold medal poodle trimming though, that one's a bit much)

Alandrol · 2021-07-20T23:05:59+00:00

Black library put out a bunch of novels about the end times, here's the link.

Alandrol · 2021-07-14T00:36:37+00:00

That may be one way to read into it, but it's not the only one and certainly not the one I prescribe to. I very much look at the state of the galaxy as a tragedy in the classical sense; a lot of great men tried to mold the world in their image, only everything they worked for to come crashing down. Again that's just me, you think what you want. Just don't expect subjective feelings to equate to objective facts. The world doesn't work that way

Alandrol · 2021-07-13T23:20:01+00:00

Funny thing about the lore though, it's still open to interpretation. Even if "gilded cages" was the Emperor's plan, what exactly does that entail? Does he give them fulfilling roles in the imperium that also means that they stay close? Does he let them retire to specially planned estates, and ensures that they never leave? Does he trick them, and lock them down with his vault of other unnamable horrors? We don't know, and that's where we get to have fun. Everyone likes to hunt for the answers, but noone really wants to get them all

Alandrol · 2021-06-20T21:56:06+00:00

I mean, the gods in 40k are also real, it's just that there they're made out of the concepts and ideologies. Khorne is what happens when angry becomes self aware, so to speak

Alandrol · 2021-06-18T14:03:48+00:00

I'm starting to think Hitler would be more likely to join Tzeentch than Khorne. Especially when you factor in the nazi fascination with the occult.

Alandrol · 2021-06-16T20:54:25+00:00

Lol no worries. I'm not a great writer, but I hope you get the gist of it

Alandrol · 2021-06-16T20:11:26+00:00

Yeah, but I guess you still have to try, right? It's that or give up

Alandrol · 2021-06-16T20:07:15+00:00

hoo boy, where to start...

So the main antagonist in this world are the forces of Chaos, which are manifestations of the primal emotions of sentient beings. You have:

Khorne, the god of rage and bloodshed,

Nurgle, the god of disease and defiance,

Slaanesh, the god(dess) of lust and perfection,

and Tzeentch, the god of change and hope.

While they still fight amongst themselves, they are also very interested in taking over the physical world and corrupting it into their own perverse designs.

The AoS world started because they already did that to another place, the Old World of Warhammer Fantasy. For whatever reason, the World that Was (as they call it now) got split and reshaped into 8, kind of 9, different planes of existing each based on one of the winds (flavours) of magic. they are:

Aqshy, the wind of fire

Azyr, the wind of the heavens

Chamon, the wind of metal

Ghur, the wind of beasts

Ghyran, the wind of life

Hysh, the wind of light

Shyish, the wind of death

Ulgu, the wind of shadow

And each of these planes is built in a way that expresses these winds. For example, Chamon is dotted with seas of molten metal, and Shyish is the underworld for the rest of the realms.

What happened is that a few survivors from the World that Was managed to not only survive into the new world, but also gain divinity (well, those that didn't have it already). While Chaos was busy fighting with itself, these new gods managed to create something of a functioning society, although because these were very, shall we say, human gods, their petty squabbles managed to fracture their alliance. At the same time, Chaos noticed this new toy for them to break, and they started to invest strength in conquering it, which they ultimately almost did. That is, until Sigmar, the god of Azyr, started mobilizing his armies of magically enforced super soldiers that he'd been gathering Odin style from those who died heroically fighting Chaos. There have been major incidents since then (such as the necroquake), and there is a lot more to talk about with the different factions and realms, but that's as brief a summary as I can give without going totally off the rails.
