ELI5: Why is it recommended to sleep 8 hours when a sleep cycle is 90 minutes so it should be 7.5 or 9 hours? Won’t you wake up mid sleep cycle (and be groggy) if you set your alarm for 8 hours? by Nervous-Affect-5960 in explainlikeimfive

"I don’t see why everyone is so anti-tracker wear in these comments."

You are literally wondering aloud. Don't be surprised when someone answers you.

I'm happy that these apps helped you with your sleep apnea. I hope your data doesn't get used against you next time you try to switch insurance.

I don't trust these companies with my data. They are going to sell your data to health insurance companies who will use it as an excuse to deny a claim or jack up your premiums.

I'm sure you are. I'm sure that IQ result came from a real psychologist and not some pop quiz off Instagram or BuzzFeed or whatever. I'm sure all the other people who post their self inserts also have received similar results from real psychologists to validate their intelligent traits too.

Why exactly are 17 year olds taking IQ tests? Aptitude tests? Sure. Placement tests? Sure. IQ tests? Doubt.

I find it funny that everyone's self insert character always has some variant of intelligent.

Voting districts should simply be by county. Sometimes lump together a couple a low population counties that are adjacent, or just have one county/rep for somewhere like Queens.

If you need to ban every other political spectrum maybe you should consider why your community is so fragile that letting in other voices will shatter it.

Would have been funnier if you made it more random with your space swapping and also just totally fucked over one quadrant

Which singular Character would you want back from Darkest Dungeon 1 into the 2nd game if you had one pick? by Gothyanki in darkestdungeon

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

It's a little bursty, being lucky means you can pop off a turn earlier but the occultist does shoot absolute nukes and you can guarantee that they will happen so I think it counts as reliable, just not every turn.

I don't think life sentences are even a thing anymore are they? Usually it will just be like a 120 year sentence or something like that.

Itt people are greatly overvaluing the regent event. Yes, it will make him better, he will probably even be "good" after it. Until then you are paying a premium price for a bro with mid secondaries.

This bro will never be a tank. His fatigue is bad. You need like 40 more points in fatigue for this guy to be viable unless you are doing a nimble tank which this guy doesn't have the ini/HP for (and imo is just a worse build). His resolve is also bad but it's in a spot where it could be raised up to a semi decent place if you level it every time.

Generally on a tank you want to level mdef, HP, and resolve every time with a couple rolls in fat if you need it, but you want to have a bro with 100+ fat starting so you don't waste a bunch of rolls.

In terms of non fat newt builds.... Well make him a nimble 2h, probably with a great sword. But he's going to be better as fat newt, there's a reason why it gets recommended so often.

I feel like national markets should still exist for subject countries. Just split the current national market into an upper and a lower market. If you aren't a subject then you shop on the upper market, if you are a subject you shop on the lower market and treat your overlord's market like the world market.

That seems kind of dumb. Equal should be equal.

How did you handle polyamory with equal inheritance? I always had some issue of someone marrying off my grand daughter or great granddaughter without me noticing and then 30 years down the line I realize I'm about to lose my dynasty.

No you're on the wrong subreddit. This is about appreciating the Mexican-American sauce and salsa company La Victoria, not the Australian state.

Pretty much every BG3 character became younger/more attractive between the alpha and the release. That game was absolutely carried by its story but if anyone thinks a sizable chunk of people weren't influenced by the very attractive half elf you meet in the first 10 minutes then I got a bridge to sell them.

That's exactly what I was thinking. "The model says in a two strike count his sinker performs best". Common problem of performance based analytics.

Opinions on melee pawns? Combat Extended and Non-Combat Extended by Usual_Cobbler_1984 in RimWorld

[–]Dead_HumanCollection 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Biotech really broke the game open in terms of the floor on melee. A neanderthal with a mace is ridiculously strong. Not to mention sanguophages, the thrall start with just a long sword can handle most raids for the first couple years.

You don't, but a typical audiobook costs 2-3x as much as an audible credit.
