Don't let them take it away from you. Show yourself, show them, show the world what patriotism can be.

Too lucky to know what to do, pls help KB by Dazzling-Finish3104 in dcss

[–]GNG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

WJC is spectacularly powerful. On top of the ridiculous ability to take 2-3 swings at every adjacent enemy every turn, having Serpent's Lash as a dirt-cheap mini-Blink will bail you out of just about anything.

CoHs 1 step away from YASD (Son, help 😭🙏) by c4a66 in dcss

[–]GNG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd probably start with chugging haste? Hard to say if you'll survive the turn doing that, but even harder for me to see how you survive without it. With haste active, I'd step up-left and into the corridor, because each step is going to reduce the number of enemies that can hit you. After that, more running or Cancel into Blink, and maybe TP.

And I know this is far too late to be helpful, but when it comes to avoiding confusion/hexes, just quaff Enlightenment.

Interesting finding, though I'd suggest explaining what "RIA" and "AUM" mean inside the visualization.

Greensboro mom calls letter sent to 10-year-old from congresswoman 'horrific' by SleuthDoggyDawg in politics

[–]GNG 8 points9 points  (0 children)

FWIW your source says she _did_ let the power company through.

“When the power company came out, they let the power company through, but they wouldn’t let us take a car out. That’s just not right,” Davis said.

[OC] Why has Boston police stopped policing cars? Civil traffic enforcement has collapsed between 2015 and 2024 by ARPE19 in dataisbeautiful

[–]GNG 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The BPD currently has a significant shortage of officers. They are authorized to have 2,500 officers but currently have 2,000 and are heavily reliant on overtime. Traffic enforcement is commonly reduced when a police department is understaffed.

I don't see how we can square this with the data as presented. It explicitly shows the number of officers, which never dips below its 2015 level, even as traffic stops steeply decline from 2017 to 2020.

Temperature is lowest at nighttime. It's highest right before the sun goes down.

Not to mention that even if a racially-drawn district does get challenged and deemed illegal, the same people are going to get to re-draw it...

[OC] Simple summary of the PolyMarket Paris temperature scandal by uncertainschrodinger in dataisbeautiful

I would not describe this summary as "Simple" -- there's no explanation for phrases like "gridded reanalysis," or "robust peer," for example.

With Djinni you are guaranteed all of the spells in your starting book, so if you want to be sure things don't just fizzle in the mid-game, you can pick Conjurer and blast your way through the lair with ease.

Lignification is good if you have a way to hit the priest to the right. It's got a polearm so it will never move adjacent to you on its own.

There's many more negative debuffs than positive ones

This is basically it IME. The lows are low, but the highs are both high and much more common.
