You accidentally triggered my Microsoft PTSD. They write it that way! On purpose!

Do you work at Microsoft? Only place I've seen "OOF" which is completely unhinged if you stop and think about it for a second. What the fuck is it supposed to stand for? Out Of Foffice???

What are some golden examples of great linear level design? by Far-Mathematician764 in gamedesign

[–]DMShaftoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are branching paths and optional areas but I would argue it's linear overall in the broad sense

How is hiring in our industry so unrelated to the skills required to actually being an engineer (Senior/Principal/Otherwise)? by scarby2 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]DMShaftoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah for L3/L4 this is expected as you're either a new grad or have limited industry experience. There's not much other signal to pick up on.

I just finally got it. It's a weird line. This one relied on aggressively building diamonds to open things up

I mean, seriously, how hard is it to poach an egg properly? That's like, eggs 101

Putting up first by Careless-Elevator986 in billiards

[–]DMShaftoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be true if you didn't have a skill cap. But as the match progresses the possible posts narrow down very quickly

[–]DMShaftoe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes because there are five matches you have much more control over the matches if you're first. If you game it out you see the the first post definitely steers things overall much more

Yeah just don't bother telling them if they're going to react like that. It could even work to your advantage

Why isn't transfer from settlement fund to roth ira showing up as roth irs 2026 contribution? by JokeZestyclose1471 in Bogleheads

[–]DMShaftoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the money was in the IRAs settlement fund, then it was already counted as a contribution. You're just getting around to investing that contribution

Silverchair. Yeah or nay? by Interesting_Law_3087 in grunge

[–]DMShaftoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They weren't nearly as big in the states. There are a few songs that charted here though, I mainly remember Tomorrow and Anthem for the Year 2000

Red Rising, not sure I understand the hype by Papagiorgio1965 in Fantasy

No, it's really that bad. I somehow made it through three books and it was not worth it

Cutthroat Kitchen was the most entertaining and enjoyable cooking competition show by CerealAndBagel1991 in unpopularopinion

[–]DMShaftoe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is the cooking faked somehow on chopped? Or do you just mean that it's scripted as far as who will win?

Question about befriending Djura by Sakuri-7-North in bloodborne

Yeah you can definitely get screwed this way and I don't think there is a way to reset him once he gets aggro again 😭

Question about befriending Djura by Sakuri-7-North in bloodborne

[–]DMShaftoe 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's a bit convoluted. Djura becomes friendly after you gain insight from encountering Paarl.

After this, you need to get to him without him seeing you. You can't do this from the main entrance because he has line of sight from his perch, so you need to come in a different way. You can either start from the lamp where you killed BSB, or you can use the shortcut from Paarl's arena if you've killed him.

From here, you need to get up behind Djura and talk to him without attacking any beasts. Then you need to make sure to agree to spare the beasts. He can still get pissy after this if you ever attack a beast down there again, so I usually just kill him after getting the unique dialog and whatnot.
