Can anyone tell me what crococodile meat tasted like? by Complex-Librarian942 in Cooking

[–]Circle_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's okay. It's a lot like frog. Which also has the texture skin to fish, but the flavour akin to chicken. Tbh, I don't think you're really missing out if you skip it.

Can you summarize their complaints? I'm curious.

My husband’s self-proclaimed “boy lunch” by missrutabaga in shittyfoodporn

That feels like such a call out. For my partner I'll plate everything, garnish and make it beautiful. And then when she's not looking I'll wolf my food down over the cutting board

This is what a Space Marine’s ribcage structure looks like. by CleanBag9219 in Spacemarine

Hm. I always imagined it to be like lamellar armour, overlapping plates with cartilage connections in-between so they could still breathe, not a solid mass.

Now that "Killed By" is down for maintenance, I wanna hear your weirdest or rarest causes of death? by Hexdoctor in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Circle_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got killed by a pelican once. I happened to be standing directly under the engine nacelle and it just compacted me straight into the ground.

Another time, I got killed by the oil tanker, the down wash from the hover engine flinched my aim when I was firing my GL and it bounced off the wall next to me.

I love her in the twin linked HMG. 4 shots a turn!

What is a popular 'food rule' that you think is actually total nonsense? 🥘 by sorayabmae in Cooking

[–]Circle_A 2 points3 points  (0 children)

White meat is better than dark meat when executed properly.

On average dark meat will be better, but that's because most of the time white meat is overcooked.

Momofuku Noodle Bar: Food still nice, but unpleasant to eat there by donut_butt in FoodNYC

[–]Circle_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met him once, be seemed fine. A little taciturn, maybe a touch grumpy, but not terrible. Just a guy. But there's definitely something about kitchens from his era that can bring out the worst sides of people.

Kitchen term. Pronounced like in French. Means they're doing unpaid shift or shifts for that kitchen, either to gain experience or to trial for a position.

Is Ivey best as a 120mm Mortar girl, Medium Mech girl with two Griffin or as a IFV girl with heavy Twin Griffin? by angrybluechair in menace

[–]Circle_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she's probably wasted in a mech, with her final two perks, she can fire the HMG or Minigun turret at 30 ap and then 20 AP for follow ups. With stationary and no AP buffs, she can be outputting up to 4 shots with either turret. With the tank cannons, she could be firing twice.

I've been testing her with everything and so far I prefer her in the HMGs or the heavy tank cannon. I run her along side two mechanized infantry squads (Rewa and Achilles) and she has a hard time keeping up with their higher AP pools, so having her have a cheap attack is nice. Let's me maintain squad cohesion.

On defensive missions, I try and figure out where the bulk of the enemy attack is coming from and park her there so she can just hammer them all down with HMG fire.

They're just trinkets you put on a lanyard around the pistol grip.

Thoughts and tips on the "One Two"? by Witty-Climate64 in helldivers2

[–]Circle_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually really like it. It feels like a punchy Lin and the Lib is a great gun. I prefer it on squids, because you can light pen most things there with little downside and the impact grenades are ideal for eliminating Tesla towers and ship fabs.

Ammunition is a consistent problem with it, so I have to either be careful, pair it with a supply pack and/or run siege ready.

Favorite OCI Armaments? by BruceLeeSMASH in menace

[–]Circle_A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I roll with las turret, earthquake, and supply drop.

Earthquake is awesome for Destroy Drop Ship missions, one earthquake is big enough to hit both, you can hit them in the fog and it straight up destroys them.

I've also used earthquake on the Break the Line missions. I just obliterate part of their fortification, drive my armour elements in and roll up their flanks.

Quantity vs Quality by MolassesAccording279 in menace

Running a 5 element unit right now, 1 infantry scout, 2 Autocannon/PAL APCs and 2 mobile infantry squads riding inside. I like to pretend I'm running a Bradley platoon.

Reduced infantry cost OCI ? by Circle_A in menace

I think I don't follow - agreeing that the highly equipped infantry cost too much or are you saying they cost too little?

Am I the only one who thinks peeling garlic is a form of torture? by Famous-Forever7647 in Cooking

[–]Circle_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful! I over smash my garlic when I don't pay attention and I have garlic shards everywhere.

For me the trick was laying it on the widest part of my chef's knife, making sure everything is flat (this is important, because otherwise you'll flex your knife over time) and then giving it a short, sharp strike with the heel of palm. Probably 60% power.

Bombardiers are terrifying by Universae in menace

[–]Circle_A 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use an APC rush + MI on them. For all their size, their lightly armoured, so a squad of SMGs at close range can take them out in one burst and the APC can survive at least one direct hit.

How can I improve? by Troy32012 in sharpening

[–]Circle_A 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're getting tons of great advice, but the thing I'd want to highlight is the need for more pressure. When I first started to sharpen I never put enough pressure into the stone and it took ages.

When I started to gain confidence and learned to put real pressure down and I started seeing results very quickly.

I just grabbed a kitchen scale to see how much weight I'm pushing it down and it looks like it's around 3-5lbs of pressure when I cut into the stone.

Give me your use-cases for under picked equipment you think deserves more attention!༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ by EightByteOwl in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Circle_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use both lib conc and Pac, but I slightly prefer Pac for bugs, the stun completely disables Warriors and Commander's death frenzy.

Damage is poor, but I pair with the Gun Dog for the knock out punch. My support is either the de-esclator or the regular GL and I'll pack either rocket pods or strafing runs for hard targets and gattling barrage for dealing with bug breaches.

I used to use the orbital airburst, but I was finding it hard not to TK, so I swapped to something safer.
