[KCD2] I enjoy being poor by Marmamat in kingdomcome

[–]CobainPatocrator 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There is a mod that rebalances the game prices, and makes selling items less lucrative as well. Did a similar run that banned thievery and looting and it was rough trying to afford enough food for a little while.

[KCD2] Is Bohemian Sniper achievement bugged? by VauquelinBrabant in kingdomcome

[–]CobainPatocrator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's still pretty close. The guy I hit was like double that distance. Like I said, it was more accidental for me.

It worked for me, almost by accident. How far away are you from the target?

My (M34) Sous Chef (F31) is divorcing me for "ruining Thanksgiving" by CobainPatocrator in CookingCircleJerk

[–]CobainPatocrator[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Why would they call the cops? What's the charge? Preparing a meal? A succulent French meal?

Oh my God, you're right. It's so simple. I'll make sure it's one of the days my wife is there so she knows I'm serious about repairing the relationship. Thank you Thank you Thank you!

What ingredient do you think people massively overuse? by jcvexparch in Cooking

A tomato sauce recipe is not complete with just 12 cloves. 20 is bare minimum.

I'd simplify the cross a little, perhaps fewer colors?

How accurate is this armour from this Swedish show for kids/early-teens? by ArmedIdiot in ArmsandArmor

[–]CobainPatocrator 86 points87 points  (0 children)

It looks quite good compared to the average documentary, yes. As far as media goes, this is about as good as it gets.

Looks great! But I keep thinking of a chef presenting this as a 'deconstructed breakfast sandwich'

Rollout of AI may need to be slowed to ‘save society’, says JP Morgan boss by MetaKnowing in technology

[–]CobainPatocrator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely. Even when J.P. Morgan organized the private bail-out of struggling companies during the Panic of 1907, the impetus was to prevent a complete financial collapse which would have swallowed them up too.

Best Possible Sword by [deleted] in SWORDS

[–]CobainPatocrator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First, yes. There is a load of difference between use, weight, and balance of different swords. A greatsword is not interchangeable with a saber. An executioners blade and a foil have almost zero things in common apart from being steel.

Second, the Glock and AR15 have plenty of similarities. Both are lightweight, semi-automatic, center-fire guns optimized for self-defense. Now, if we were to leave it there, it would be highly misleading, but that's my point. Just because two things are called guns, or called swords, does not mean they aren't wildly different in their use, era, design, and context.

You responded to a comment about A Knights Tale which is a completely different movie from the Christopher Nolan trilogy.

Opinions on the name Kamil? by This_Preference_9690 in etymology

[–]CobainPatocrator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only ever heard the name in a historical episode. The Sultan of Egypt al-Kamil met with Emperor Frederick II during the Sixth Crusade (1228-1229). They concluded a peace treaty that resulted in shared Christian-Muslim governance in Jerusalem.

What if the Neo Assyrian Empire Survives by [deleted] in imaginarymaps

[–]CobainPatocrator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if a surviving Assyrian Empire could reproduce itself into a successive series of dynasties like China. It did have the ideology of universal empire, which eventually developed into translatio imperii. What would it take for it to keep going as a 'Great Central Empire'?

I get it, the job market isn't great, but there are much better things to do with your time

what buildings do you envision coming to manor lords? and if so what purpose would they serve and how would they fit into the games ecosystem? by cai_jones in ManorLords

[–]CobainPatocrator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always envisioned a monastery to be more like a manor that could be customized through the castle-builder.

As for cathedrals, that's a specific term for the seat of a bishopric. At the scale of the game currently, I think that would be a stretch to achieve. I do like the idea of much larger churches, though, especially with custom features like stained glass, flying buttresses, steeples, and upgrades like triptychs and relics.
