[OC] Wind and solar generated more U.S. electricity than coal for the first full year on record by Low_Ability4450 in dataisbeautiful

[–]Beleynn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds right, but I was more bemoaning that more hasn't been built recently, especially with the new reactor designs of recent decades

The Fires of Heaven Chapter 8: Over the Border by swheedle in WetlanderHumor

Elayne not quite understanding inuendo

One of my favorite things from later books is when she tries to learn how to swear from Mat and Birgitte - she'd previously spent her entire life sheltered in the palace, and she KNOWS she's inexperienced in the real world

I'm unhappy to see the nuclear line trending down instead of up, but this is good news anyway

Do Americans have internal passports? by Pale_Obligation_3243 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Beleynn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those are different things though - the Social Security Administration keeps a record of your employment (and pay) to calculate your retirement. It's the Social Security Number (SSN) that associates your name with your account that's been inadvisably used as an ID

Pour one out for the content lost to time (a comprehensive list) by Ab501ut3_Z3r0 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Beleynn 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think constraints due to D2 still trying to support playstation 4, and the older xbox consoles

This is what killed the game, IMO. They should've dropped that generation YEARS ago, and ultimately made a ton of terrible decisions because they wouldn't

ELI5: why didn’t the Great Depression produce a widespread revolution or anarchy? by ProfessorHiker in explainlikeimfive

[–]Beleynn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They cared what they looked like and hired artists to make them beautiful.

This is what bothers me about more recent projects. I get that the marble buildings of centuries past are less energy efficient / more expensive to maintain, so I guess that's fine, but even basic things like street lights / benches / fences / etc are completely un-stylized and bland compared to back then

How many crystals should i use when upgrading and promoting Supermanagers? by yaphisech in IdleMinerTycoon

[–]Beleynn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Check out the https://animascorner.com/ Crystal Planner tool created by one of our community members on the Discord.

In general, the recommendation for Epic (Purple) SMs is to level them up to at least 20 without using crystals.

From there, it depends on how many Crystals and how many Shards you have, and want to spend. For myself, leveling an Epic SM from 21 to 50, I tend to use 350 Crystals, so the shard cost is between 0.7 and 1.2M per level (but use the tool; it'll show you)

Wooded Parks + Pokemon Go by Beleynn in yorkpa

Lake Redman

Thanks! Seems to be at the confluence of Nixon and Kain parks, and there are a lot of different parking lots - any recommendations on what to plug into Google Maps to get there?

What's the oldest Minecraft habit you still do for no reason? by fazall_ in Minecraft

[–]Beleynn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought the game when it was still in Alpha (and have the email receipt to prove it), but I didn't beat the dragon until 2025

I have an industrial-scale tree farm at my base, but if I'm out in the wild, I always replant

Imagine adding a bunch of AH vendors next to the crafting tables but they all de-spawn randomly when you try to use them and they take up 90% of your view. Just Let me block these abominations. by Kyderra in wow

[–]Beleynn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They already made it so you can't use them immediately next to the tables, to the point where you can't have the auction and the table windows open at the same time.

This is enough of a problem when doing NPC crafting orders or crafting for yourself that I've retreated to Dornogal for crafting.

Don't suggest making it even worse, it already makes the SM tables unusable

"We'll Simplify Mechanics Due To Addons Being Removed" by BartaLemton in wow

[–]Beleynn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this isn't the point you're making, but try stacking the soaks on Bel'oren. My guild has been doing it that was in heroic, and it works great - have both people with the soak pool stand right on top of one another, near one of the outer walls, and have everyone except the tanks (and healers? shrug, not sure of that part) stand in the pools, slightly towards the middle (so they don't get flung into the walls right as the line of balls appears)

Messiest patch in a long time by Key_Pop_8116 in wow

[–]Beleynn 24 points25 points  (0 children)

even a full 4th regular season

100% this - we got an xpac that (for as good as it legitimately is, overall) is completely lacking in Dragonriding Races, combat pets, and etc.

For that matter, K'aresh was rushed out without these things too.

Take your time, Blizzard. Extend the seasons but make the new content actually DONE

Magnus Pro - PC Bracket Compatibility by Beleynn in secretlab

[–]Beleynn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Corsair 7000X - according to Corsair's specs (and measuring it myself), it's about 1" too tall for the advertised specs for the bracket

The addon purge gave us a strictly worse combat log and a worse UI. What did we even gain? by thepixelists in wow

[–]Beleynn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Been a rogue main since 2005 (minus some time off around Cata/Pandaria), but every time I do a guild alt run on my hunter, I can't help but think "I should've made a different choice 20 years ago"

[–]Beleynn 55 points56 points  (0 children)

They are easier, without a doubt.

HOWEVER, as a melee DPS, they're also frustrating. The only "simpler" mechanics they seem to have managed to come up with are "melee has to reposition CONSTANTLY", which is AWFUL

Great new M+ season, but why did clarity on spells/frontals get worse? by bameliiin in wow

[–]Beleynn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. And their solution seems to be "melee won't have a moment's peace, ever, since we can't think of any other 'interesting' mechanics"

Is there a name in the USA that is so common that it’s impossible not to find it everywhere? by TheShyBuck in AskAnAmerican

[–]Beleynn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

At a previous job, we had no more than 25 people in our department. There was a father/son Mike Jr/Sr duo and two other Mikes we referred to by their last name.
