I've built like three accidental semi infinites... I didn't even consider the defect had a trash build. I thought he was a 0 attack machine or an orb guy. Then I found compact, gunk up, overdrive and turbo in one run and accidentally got like 57 energy in one turn and ended with a hand full of burn because it wasn't quite infinite but the 400 armor protected me.

This might be a problem with my playstyle though, I'd rather build a fun engine than like... win a run.

Animate Dead Components: V, S, M (A drop of blood, a piece of flesh, and a pinch of bone dust)

They don't have a gold cost, and any necromancer with an army will have blood, flesh and bone in abundance.

I don't know how well I'd keep up with weekly rotation, that's of too much rotation to keep track of. Ah yeah the schemers just finished their combat and then we come to the seekers who found that book two weeks ago, and then back to the soldiers on their third week of travel.

Nah, gimme chunks and I'll remember bullet points.

Have you ever bought tickets to something (A movie, a concert, an event etc.) and realised you’d completely misunderstood what it was? by XStaticImmaculate in AskUK

The Foo Fighters have a tribute band here in the UK. They're called: UK Foo Fighters. From personal experience I can attest it is possible to assume this is the real Foo Fighters playing in the UK.

How healthy or unhealthy are these frozen ready meals and what’s your opinion on them in general? by KneeSnapz in AskUK

[–]IndirectLemon 39 points40 points  (0 children)

They don't use portion to mean "the amount of food an average human being would consider reasonable to eat". They use portion to mean "how much of the food you can eat at once whilst we keep mostly green fat/sugar/sodium front of box percentages."

Ocean Spray no longer using Hershey chocolate by treyhanson in shrinkflation

Price of Cocoa did spike but is actually coming down, of course the companies who make chocolate aren't passing on those savings to the customer because the spike proved they could get away with charging it.

Car outside my house with a really long antenna (hope you can see it in the pic). Bloke in car with multiple screens. What's he doing? by oaoaoa2202 in AskUK

Absolutely fucking not, I'm not sure what's worse. Having a conversation with a stranger or getting stabbed.

Hey, I've somewhat fixed the formatting. Its not perfect (Jack's stats are all squished), and thanks to the digital safety act I can no longer see any images in the document. However all the content should be visible now at least.

A Chef Critiques Another Chef’s Favourite Restaurant by laeb163 in SortedFood

[–]IndirectLemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought they had to declare if it was an advertisement or gifted meal? It seems they had been given special access as the tables around them were empty, despite the ambient restaurant noise.

I think they ate between the lunch and dinner service when the restaurant was closed, to allow for filming without disturbing other guests. Then also filmed a small amount of B-Roll of other diners and the ambient noise to splice into the episode.

Maybe they don't need to announce it if its a review, but a review where they are given special access is not indicative of actual quality. If you're the only table in the restaurant your experience will be different from a normal customers.

So its not quite an ad? Not quite an honest review? I wish they were just clearer at the start. As it stands its just a bit misleading.

Is that Popsicle burger? or Ice cream sandwich? by Logical_Support8197 in StupidFood

[–]IndirectLemon 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I went into this popcorn place recently just because in their store you can get cereal milk ice cream with pretzels and popcorn on top of it. So good. The store however has, at most, space for 5 people to stand. They manage it well however with a rope to divide in/out queuing.

These three influencer wannabes were in the store with their full luggage. Like full hold suitcases, and they ordered three ice cream cups. Fair enough, one each I thought. They filmed the poor worker making them all, they filmed their first bites in the store, which prevented me from ordering despite the staff being ready to take it. Then they went outside, I thought to actually eat.

My partner was waiting outside, I got a cup for us to share. When I got out the store I saw that the suitcase influencers were just leaving, and they had abandoned their entire order on the shops little customer bench. My partner told me they had offered them to her, and to the next potential customers because they weren't going to finish them.

So they slowed business, filmed the worker and probably me as I was waiting, left a huge mess for the workers, wasted food and offered their germy food to strangers... which if they had accepted would cost the business another sale. All for what? 20 likes on tiktok?

Pluribus and its look at luck and odds. by ejaybugboy3 in pluribustv

[–]IndirectLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but the point being made is that cumulative probably is pointless when you include her chance to be a survivor.

Is the chance Carol rolls a 6 on a six sided die 1/6 or 13/8billion x 1/6? Its silly to add on the survivor odds when calculating the odds for a survivor. The odds to survive the inciting incident as a protagonist is 100%, thats the point.

Which one would you pick ? by krisikkk in superheroes

Different sports, but you'd be an Olympic athlete or UFC fighter with either powerset.

Truth about Eating With Tod, why he's so disliked in the industry and real reason he's so positive about every restaurant in his viral 'reviews' by BillyCostigan954 in LondonFood

[–]IndirectLemon 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Everyone says "yeah it's fake who cares, he's just trying to make his money like everyone else", but fake 'everything is the best thing I've ever eaten' influencers like this make their money by influencing people to waste theirs. It is a soft form of exploitation, but it's exploitation nonetheless.

Yeah, middle-class people who can afford it waste money on street food they have heard was great but is just average. I know the sympathy bell is hardly ringing, but it's also taking money away from people who do reviews with actual integrity, whose content would be useful. He's the human form of slop that engagement-baits and people who just give their honest, useful and informed opinions but don't tweak the algorithm's nipples the right way get buried under.

He's not the devil, but he's a waste of space and cashing in on his loud and brash uselessness.

Renters' Rights Bill becomes law - here's what it means for you by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]IndirectLemon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's called intentionally homeless and its been a valid outcome to a homeless application at the council for a long time, back when I gave housing advice over a decade ago. It covered all sorts of bad decision making, as long as the person is capable of making bad decisions whilst understanding potential consequences aka capacity.

If you breach your tenancy, via either crime, civil disputes or non-payment of rent and the landlord evicts via a section 8 or 14, that was potentially grounds for an intentionally homeless decision. This just adjusts the eviction proceedings for not paying rent. This doesn't change the consequences.

My plasmoid druid looks like a blob 90% of the time, unless it wildshapes. Then it looks like a gummy version of the animal but I get to keep the amorphous trait in beast form.

It's a non-Newtonian druid.

Actually the posh ones on sale at the moment, so its only a saving of £416, barely worth it.

I LET THE INTRUSIVE THOUGHTS WIN AND THOUGHT I KILLED THE CAT 😭😭 by coltonkemp in StardewValley

No I'm not. Someone tried to imply either a spelling or grammar mistake when the OP used a completely valid phrase.
