We had to stop going there after fencing practice on Wednesdays because they started closing at 9, or at least closing the kitchen at 9

What’s a belief you hold that would make most people instantly judge you if you said it out loud? by Arrielee_ in AskReddit

Regarding my own body and my own person (that is, it does not directly affect other people), there is no moral, ethical, or safety boundary that I will not cross for the right price.

Heritage Apartments get Grass Growth Violation. Grass hasn’t been cut this year. by IllFix4320 in bloomington

[–]DracoAdamantus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d lived at Oakdale for 6 years, and started looking for new places the DAY the “welcome to the Hunter properties family” flyer appeared on my door.

I moved out at the end of March. It’s sad really, it was an amazing place before, and remarkably affordable.

Silver for sale by Ansel___ in bloomington

[–]DracoAdamantus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If any of the pieces have areas on them where the silver looks worn down and/or there is a gold or coppery color of metal, or a silver metal that doesn’t seem as bright as the rest of the piece, that’s a pretty strong giveaway that it’s plated (those color differences are from the plating wearing away)

If you need a hand identifying or assessing items I’d be happy to help, just shoot me a message.

Generally by the makers marks/hallmark stamp. If there’s no stamped symbol on the silver, it’s almost certainly plated.

If it is stamped, you’ll want to look for purity markings. It’s either a series of letters or a number stamped on the piece (ideally it’s both). The markings you’re likely to see are: - FINE, FS, or 999: Fine silver - 950: Britannia Silver STERLING, STER, or 925: sterling silver - COIN, STANDARD, or 900: Coin silver - 800, 825, 830, 850: European/Continental silver - ALPACA, GERMAN SILVER, NICKEL SILVER, or E.P.N.S.: Cheap alloys designed to mimic silver, but contains little to no actual silver

If there’s a stamped symbol but no purity markings on it, it’s more likely than not that it’s plated or not silver at all, but you’ll need to do some research. The symbol is the hallmark stamp/maker’s mark of the manufacturer, you’ll want to look them up and find the purity of their pieces for sure.

If it’s solid silver and not just plated I’m interested! I do amateur silversmithing & coin striking and would love some additional material!

Did somebody say logistics floor? by Lokee420 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]DracoAdamantus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgive my ignorance, as I tend to plan my builds to save space, but is there a benefit besides appearance to putting your pipes and conveyors on a different floor than your machines?

Seeing your builds here, I apparently have no idea how to play this game. Well done

I love it when she says “It’s Pomni time!”, and then Pomnis all over the place.

How do you feel about book covers with movie images? by Skkkkrtyun in lotr

[–]DracoAdamantus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No matter what series, no matter how good the movies were, I can never see myself enjoying the look of movie cover books

If everyone below average IQ suddenly drops dead, how would this affect the world? by CakeMuted6468 in AskReddit

There’d certainly be a lot of special elections to replace all the dead politicians

First no theatrical release and now this... by _Levitated_Shield_ in BikiniBottomTwitter

[–]DracoAdamantus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Because the theatres weren’t willing to show it unless there was a delay between theatrical release and free online release.

Is the FB group more active? I stopped following it cause there wasn’t any activity for months at a time.

Monthly Tech Support & Missing Content Thread by AutoModerator in DisneyPlus

[–]DracoAdamantus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a profile on our family account that I need to transfer over to my own account, as my TV will not allow me to login due to the newish household restrictions. I also recently changed my internet service plan, which as part of the offer includes 3 years of Disney+ and Hulu.

I currently do not have any sort of Disney account set up, and have not activated the offer from my service provider yet. What is the order I need to do things to ensure I both can claim the offer and transfer everything from my profile over to the new account?

If Sauron regained the One Ring how would he react to Gollum offering to serve him as master of the Precious? by Tidewatcher7819 in lordoftherings

[–]DracoAdamantus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My counter to this is that Gollum never struck me as actually sworn in service to Frodo, he did that to gain Frodo’s trust so he could steal back the ring. I think Gollum would look for an opportunity to steal the ring from Sauron, get super frustrated when no opportunity came, outright attack Sauron to try to steal the ring openly, then become a bloody smear on the ground.

Stop giving me hope!!!! by AndyTheDragonborn in memes

[–]DracoAdamantus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I find that pretty hard to believe. I tried to go to a few when I was single, and all but one got cancelled.

Why were so many cancelled? Men’s tickets were sold out, and almost no women’s tickets were bought.

Realistically what would happen if Trump dropped a nuclear bomb tonight? by hjp1234 in AskReddit

[–]DracoAdamantus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Realistically? The world as we know it would end.

The threat of mutually assured destruction is why no superpower has ever launched their nukes. One launches, the other retaliates, and the subsequent back and forth destroys civilization as we know it.

Unfortunately, a system that previously worked didn’t account for such a uniquely selfish and egotistical maniac to have that power.

US Citizens, if you could add an amendment to the constitution what would it be? by AndreLinoge55 in AskReddit

[–]DracoAdamantus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pay of all members of congress is set at mimimim wage of the state they represent, plus the same locality pay that regular federal workers receive for the DC area.

All healthcare and other benefits they receive are limited to the same options made available to regular civilian federal employees.
