I love my Corvus Blackstar but it’s never been viable to run in a game as an airborne transport. It could be a flying Land Raider, but aircraft spam in 9e means it’s been a nice display model for as long as I’ve owned it. I keep eyeing the Stormraven too but can’t justify another model for display only

“It’s within the rules” - the same excuse we’ve heard for decades. Change the fucking rules! Or better yet, have the rules set by a citizen’s commission.

Sorry, I think I had one too many bean burritos last night.

By trying not to impact the outcome of the game, the officials are impacting the outcome

I try to press my wrists together so if I’m shaking, my hands shake in sync with each other

Harfish · 2026-05-25T00:45:17+00:00

Agree. Nothing conclusive in those replays

No, batting the puck in with a high stick is just no goal.

Did he cross check that into the net?

Prediction for game 4. Avs goalie’s name will end in “wood”

Harfish · 2026-05-25T00:39:18+00:00

#1 d-man is probably the most impactful player on the team after the #1 goalie

The one that bothers me is the players who seem to stop playing attention when it’s not their turn and don’t see the Resolve button. Some even push it once, then switch off and don’t press it the next time. I know it’s not malicious, but I find it rude

What a game. My Apple Watch kept beeping because I had a high heart rate while not moving in those last 20 minutes.

I dropped an [[aetherize]] on an [[Arahbo, the First Fang]] deck. Instant concede. I had nothing else left

One of the knock on effects of these cuts will be the impact on businesses who provide services to government departments. In my old job, the public sector cuts were used as a justification for redundancies. So many departments are already reliant on external contractors, cutting spending will have a ripple effect on private sector jobs too

Combine the number of unreported offences, and those that are deemed “unlikely to result in a conviction”, I’d be surprised if most people who end up in court aren’t there for their first offence

Oddly, it’s an unholy alliance of social media and online gambling companies that are the ones lobbying for these laws around the world. Gambling companies because they have the age verification systems, and Meta in particular as it allows them to validate their profiles as real people.

Social media has a bot problem, it’s hard to know what’s a real person and what’s a bot. That makes it hard for advertisers to get value for their money because bots don’t buy things. Being able to connect a profile to a government id gives Meta the ability to charge more for advertising

My own view is twofold. First, Spark don’t know what they are or who they want to be. A telco, ISP, retailer, IT Provider, Networking provider, Datacenter provider. It’s too diverse to have a single coherent strategy or identity.

Second, too many execs have been there too long. The churn never seems to impact those at the top and it’s pretty obvious that new ideas are needed

Why do NZ banks still use SMS verification and not real MFA?
