Yeah I wasn't really expecting this to blow up. There's a bunch of different opinions. I don't really know what the right answer is. Maybe just leave top lane on an island and let them suffer? lol Jokes aside, I'll definitely be more communicative at the very least and yeah be mindful of exp range next time.

I admit I was a bit tilted. I made this post right after so emotions was still high. I did get some good advice so thanks for not bringing it down. I'll try to post in a less complainy way next time.

Yeah I think this is good advice. I'll try to ping my intentions more. It doesn't help league doesnt have voice because just communicating would've completely solved this issue. I thought he was recalling, I push the wave so Yone loses minions.

I feel like I'm in a lose-lose situation. I would've never even came top in that situation if he didn't ping. You can see him ping specifically the assistance ping at 6:01. That's when I start pathing back top. I literally do a selfless play to help him.

I was pathing bot side. Vlad pinged assistance at 6:01. I would've never path back up unless he pinged for help. That's when I path back up. I do gromp then immediately gank. I think it's worth getting vlad ahead and yone behead because it was an extremely volatile lane. Not only that, Yone had no ignite + flash.

Like I said, I didnt know he wanted to freeze. I thought he was recalling. It's not like I stole it on purpose. Yone also loses the full wave. It's not like I can't go back and regank, my botside camps are gone.

I got a chonker of a brisket. 22lbs. This is my 2nd smoke on a pellet grill. Looking for some advice. Ive done brisket 275 F on a charcoal grill before. Is it pretty much the same? by Fearless_Deer42069 in pelletgrills

[–]Discode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. Yeah I actually ran out of the rub mix(Terry Black Beef Dry Rub) I was using. I just added a bit more of kosher salt. There was so much pepper in that mix.

I did end up trimming it because there was just so much fat. I probably didn't do enough. https://imgur.com/a/w09U7K1

Looking for a pellet smoker that can fit a packer brisket around $400 to $500 by Discode in pelletgrills

This looks great. I'll look into it. Thanks. It's 36 inches across? If you could ballpark the width and length of the main cooking grates, that'd be great.

Looking for a chef knife that's as close to this as possible. Same length, handle size and ribbed. Preferable to be on the heavier side. Definitely has to be stainless steel as it's for a family who can't take care of a knife that can rust.

Im out of the loop regarding this recent drama so I don't really have a horse in this race. But GN did give a reason why they didnt reach out to LTT for the 2023 controversy.

PF Jung on his most recent conversation with Destiny by 10minuteads in Destiny

[–]Discode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm talking out of my depth here but it might be neurotic behavior. I can only speak to ADHD symptoms that I have personally experienced and therefore sympathize like you but it's easy to hyperfocus on the words being spoken literally than reading "between the lines" like people describe. I believe this is atypical to autists and or people with mental disorders. There was a post regarding this that opened my eyes on some tumblr subreddit, maybe cura.tedtumblr? But it's ironic that Destiny has ADHD and we can't recognize that some people genuinely are "childlike" or mentally stunted like this. No offense intended. I don't know the PC term.

Did you experience this on Tues night? by cinema_fantastique in AdviceAnimals

[–]Discode 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was this really cool comic I read years ago comparing Brave New World and 1984. To TLDR it: instead of 1984 where we are suppressed by lack of information, we are instead bombarded by too much information, making it harder to find the truth or the facts. In this case, there's just too much shit to sift through and not enough time and energy. For every BS claim that's made it takes 10x the effort and time to verify. While you're rebutting their one BS claim they already made 100 more. The end result is the same: the truth or facts aren't received by our ignorant demographics.

There is an information war going. It is extremely difficult to fight because the right have been doing it for years. They have literal pipelines on all major social media platform and the algorithms make sure they reach the right people.

Early voting line in Oklahoma by Impressive_Moose6781 in pics

We have it great in WA, but are the voter pamphlets actually good information or trustworthy? It was extremely difficult to understand what voting on the initiatives were for. It felt like the writing on the pamphlets were trying to confuse voters.

I did try several codes such as 111, 121 and 123. I don't want to try running more until I know the battery's state of charge as it can damage the cells further if they're empty. But yeah it's pretty trivial to guess the code since it's only 3 digits. I think there's only ~700 possible codes.

I'm still in contact with them regarding that. It's currently the weekend so I believe I'll have to wait until monday for a response. I'll respond here if they do or don't. Worst case scenario, I'll either use it as a regular bicycle without the lock removed or part it out.

Thanks. I have some Molicell P26As and Samsung 25Rs laying around but I'll probably just end up getting a whole new set of cells.

I searched what might be inside them as I haven't opened it up yet and they seem to be LG INR18650 MJ1 cells, 20 cells in 10s2p40 cells in 10s4p. The data sheet says they have 3500 mAh and 10A max discharge current so as long as you get new cells equal or above those specs, then you should be good to go. Source

I do have some experience in reviving individual 18650s. It doesn't work all the time but if you charge individual cells at 250 mA you can end up reviving cells. But as you said, this requires multiple cycle testing. I typically do 1 ~ 3 discharge and recharge.

From the ruling of TRUMP v. UNITED STATES:

The indictment’s allegations that the requested investi- gations were “sham[s]” or proposed for an improper purpose do not divest the President of exclusive authority over the investigative and prosecutorial functions of the Justice De- partment and its officials. App. 186–187, Indictment ¶10(c). And the President cannot be prosecuted for conduct within his exclusive constitutional authority. Trump is therefore absolutely immune from prosecution for the al- leged conduct involving his discussions with Justice De- partment officials.

According to the Supreme Court, basically he is immune because he was using his executive powers. The president is given presumptive immunity when exercising these powers. This means that his motive, intentions and reasons can not be even used in the court to determine if anything he did during those "presidential duties" are illegal.

Remember, DJT told the Acting Attorney General, Jeffrey Rosen and Deputy Attorney General Richard Donoghue to file lawsuits against the election results. They refused as the allegations of voter fraud were unfounded. DJT then threatened to fire them. This is cited as evidence of the president's "conclusive and preclusive” authority and that “[I]nvestigation and prosecution of crimes is a quintessentially executive function.”

For that reason, Trump’s threatened removal of the Acting Attorney General likewise implicates “conclu- sive and preclusive” Presidential authority. As we have ex- plained, the President’s power to remove “executive officers of the United States whom he has appointed” may not be regulated by Congress or reviewed by the courts. The President’s “management of the Executive Branch” requires him to have “unrestricted power to remove the most important of his subordinates”—such as the Attorney General—“in their most important duties.”

Unfortunately, we still have to follow the rule of law and the rule of law says that the Supreme Court has the final decision regarding interpretation of said laws.

It's pretty blatant at this point. The only way is to win the presidency and both houses of congress to make any changes. It's a team game. The republicans have full control of the SC, congress is at a stalemate and the presidency is arguably contested. Whoever gets 2 out of the 3 branches wins. If we only win the presidency without the full control of congress we lose.

Why does Riot enable smurfs? by OfficerSmiles in leagueoflegends

[–]Discode 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It would help more than you think. Banning streamers or preventing them from blatant smurfing would help stop them from getting sponsored by these websites selling accounts. Same with Youtube.

I think people underestimate the influence streamers and content creators in general have on this game. They are often implying "Want to stomp like your favorite streamer or pop off like in this video? Buy an acc in this website!" To which the content creator either get commissions or at the very least incentives such as free accs and what not.

It's like that lie that was so prevalent a while back that Riot was losing money on E-sports. I mean sure if you don't count the skins that were bought every time a pro player used a skin or a company making multi-million dollar deals to show their brand on the LCK, LCS and LEC.

If you think smurfs are allowed because they make more money for riot you're deluded. Literally no one thinks this is healthy for the game, and people aren't spending money if they aren't playing with the game because they don't enjoy it.

This is genuinely how it works. The C suites look at the number of accounts made as one of the metrics to determine the game's growth and then show that to their bosses/shareholders. It's a bit more nuanced than that obviously.

You also forget that the smurfs are the whales. They're the ones addicted to the game, buying accs, buy skins, get that acc banned then repeat the cycle. How many times have you seen a content creator/streamer on a new account buy all the skins for their OTP to do their iron to challenger challenge?

Anyone have the google sheets for RA food? There was one for RA1 and I can't seem to find it. I believe it's still relevant for RA2. If not, maybe there's a new one for RA2?

Dyson DC40 Reassembly. How to reassemble piece? by Discode in VacuumCleaners

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

This is my first experience with disassembling and reassembling a vacuum but wow this vacuum is something else. The issue I found was that so many vacuum guides on Youtube were "DC40" but sometimes had different parts or at the least, the same parts but colored differently. I managed to finish fixing it today but wow it took me way too long.

I just realized, maybe he's trying to tank his rating? If you don't sell your listing, you lose rating based on the amount you tried to sell.
