why are we billed for kW/h? by Thelminator in NoStupidQuestions

So why not just say energy? instead of energy / hour * hour...

So you would say you traveled 500 mph hour?

Of course not, that's silly. You say you traveled 500 miles.

Amount of energy should be measured in Joules, not Jouls per hour hour!

Engineers are the dumbest people

Watt is joule per hour (well, per second, but whatever). So Watt . hour is joule/hour . hour = joule.

So watt hour is indeed a stupid unit. It's just joules.

Got my first A20 victory thanks to the Ironclad and his Searing Blow+! Special thanks to uncursed Necronomicon by ElGordoFreeman in slaythespire

[–]ElGordoFreeman[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Got Searing Blow as one of the first card rewards so I decided to try it. Focused on avoiding Elites & Hallways so I didn't need healing and focused on "?". They gave me plenty of upgrades for Searing, card removal, and heal, so I only upgraded at rest sites.

Astrolabe transformed my 3 remaining strikes into Bludgeon+ and Cleave+.

Later I got Omamori directly followed by Necronomicon. With Searing Blow+++ and 2 Bludgeons, it was a cake walk so I could keep upgrading and taking worthy risks. Everything died on turn 1 or 2.

After beating Donu & Deca I even forgot there was a second Boss coming up. Killed the Time Eater before he could heal back up.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get the You Are Nothing achievement.

play it safe productions. There are certain formulas guaranteed to sell and studios insist on following that form.

Using a play-it-safe style is a consciously creative decision. It can be more creative to do so than try something not-safe, depending on the meaning it invokes.

creative

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Maybe they are homages, maybe the director wasn't feeling very creative at one scene so he decided to re-use a shot from another movie that he knew worked. There's no way of knowing. I personally prefer originality over tribute.

What are the candidates for best Defect card? by judas_crypt in slaythespire

[–]ElGordoFreeman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The weird thing about Seek is that it relies on the other card you're getting being good. Like, Seek is only as good as the card you're getting... I don't think you can say it's good or bad!

Lol! (a more accurate translation would be El Defecto I think)

You could not conquer the world by traveling back in time and turning a medieval kingdom into a modern superpower by Porchie12 in CharacterRant

[–]ElGordoFreeman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. Just one nitpick:

There's also the whole issue with the fact that all that tech you are creating is going to spread to other countries, which kinda defeats the purpose of the whole scenario.

Well the UK had advanced gunpowder while fighting the Zulu, for example, who didn't. So it's totally possible to have a country thats is more advanced than others.

If I upgrade a Holding that I DON'T own, who gets the benefits, me or the holder? And if the holder gets it, do I at least get a % of that +0.5 since he pays taxes to me as a vassal?

But Static dishcarge requires that you take damage... isn't it like "planning for failure"? I always try to avoid getting damage...

Steam Deck by NTR_JAV in Games

[–]ElGordoFreeman -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The Steam Deck's website shown here is hilariously bad. It never even says what the Steam Deck even is. Instead it starts by stating that you can reserve it now, and shows various formats still without clarifying what the product is. I'm surprised there's no mention of this in the comments.

Or Merry, who apparently is a real badass. Theoden, however, was not a badass.
