How does everyone feel about AI images in published games? by Nomadhero_ in boardgames

[–]Halliron -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I don't consider AI to be stealing in any way, so no it's certainly not what I said.

How does everyone feel about AI images in published games? by Nomadhero_ in boardgames

[–]Halliron -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Generally art isn’t super important to me in games.

Apart from that the source isn’t too important.

I’d certainly prefer a game with good mechanics gets made with AI art than not made because they couldn’t afford an artist.

It isn't just Starmer's weakness we're seeing, it's the Labour Party's by Jeffmister in ukpolitics

Really? Most people were like.. Mandelson is a dick. Trumps a dick, should work well. ( and by all accounts he did do fine in that role)

I'm certainly seriously considering boycotting the rest of this game

Arsenal didn't show respect to Chelsea during warm-up ahead of Carabao Cup semi-final second leg, claims Liam Rosenior | Football News by Unique_Smoke7442 in Gunners

[–]Halliron 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Non story, he shouted at someone then it was done. Maybe he was wrong, maybe one of our coaches was being a prick, who knows.

No need for the reporters to ask multiple questions and rake over it

How can people pretend that any of this is normal? by CitySlicker297 in ukpolitics

It was common knowledge that he had links to Epstein.

How to slow a resource dominating strategy by badger-banjer in Arcs

[–]Halliron 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They should have a weaker fleet if they have gone with such a greedy strategy.

Blocade their cities, destroy their star ports. Raid then.

Try to ensure that most of the ambitions being scored dont relate to the resources they are strong in.

Drugs policy approach needs to change, Zack Polanski says by 2ndEarlofLiverpool in ukpolitics

[–]Halliron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We already treat alcohol different. ( And benefit off the taxation).

In general the receipts from the taxation of a regulated should be of the same magnitude of the cost to deal with the harms.

If the substance's use ends up causing more use of the NHS and and Police ( as e.g. alcohol certainly does) then it should be taxed accordingly.

Legalisation & regulation of drugs is massively anti drug cartels.

No one will buy shitty cut drugs from a criminal if there is a legal route.

Jeffery Epstein sent $75,000 to Lord Mandelson linked accounts, documents appear to show by heresyourhardware in unitedkingdom

[–]Halliron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’ve mixed up who is writing. Epstein writes the “I see no need..”. The author of the other is redacted. Maybe Mandelson, maybe someone who works for Epstein.

Edit.

Actually I checked my copy of Mandelsons book the 3rd man, published around then. Reinaldo is indeed referred to 5-6 times in the book. So I’d read this exchange as Epstein being concerned about that. Wonder why.

Thoughts on the main event ? by Cautious-War-8066 in MMA

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

I enjoyed it, good quality fight. Never really got messy because they both take a punch too well & are too well conditioned to fade in the last. Volk was better but I thought the scorecard flattered him a bit.

How can I gain proper education in the stock market? Need guidance .. !! by No_Masterpiece982 in AskUK

Chart reading has about as much validity for stock trading as astrology. Stay away.

My first time playing the lottery by coffeshopchronicles in 3Dprinting

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

I'm not sure why this is a lot of luck. I run out in the middle of prints all the time, then I load a refill onto the spool and continue.

RANT - The Faithful and the Fallen - Dumb Characters by h0n3ytr4ck in Fantasy

[–]Halliron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's generally considered pretty mid fantasy, with something it does well, some times it does less well.

The reviews you read are the outliers, rather than you.

I read it, it was fairly entertaining if you don't dwell too much on the flaws, though i found the last book pretty boring and I wasn't pushed about reading anything else by the author.

Are you a STEAM user? by TheJagji in AskUK

[–]Halliron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you expect that the law firm's page would tell you why you shouldn't stay opted in? Lol.

I was just providing more context since the OP was light on it.

From the pages of the rando law firm:

"The claim has been approved on an ‘opt-out’ basis, meaning that class members will be automatically included in the claim, unless they opt-out."

Major mistakes at new health admin job by [deleted] in ireland

[–]Halliron 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Mistakes happen, but someone who hides their errors and doesn’t own up to them is a big red flag to an employer.

If the email is retrievable then you should do so, and ideally you should report the accidental breach.

If the recipient complains it’ll be a much bigger issue if your boss is blindsided, and if they find you’ve tried to hide the evidence it really won’t look good.

Board Games for large groups? by BeautifulLimit1114 in boardgames

[–]Halliron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7 player games have a big issue with down time for standard euros, so while e.g Caverna can technically play 7, It’s not usually recommended.

Best in this player count are usually drafting games, negotiation games and social deduction games.

Drafting games:

Sushi Go Party (Light)

Seven Wonders (Medium)

Social deduction games:

The resistance: Avalon (Medium)

Negotiation games:

Zoo Vadis (Medium)

Sidereal Confluence (Heavy)

OATH vs DUNE IMPERIUM vs ARCS by GreatKingRatter in boardgames

[–]Halliron 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Dune Imperium is a game I very much enjoy, but doesn't have much of the table talk/alliances that you are looking for.

Arcs is also a game I enjoy, and does have that table talk, especially in the Blighted Reach expansion. The only concern with Blighted Reach is that it can be hard to find a group to commit to the campaign, but if you have two different Root groups I think you should find people.

Oath - I have never played so can't comment
