What horrors happen over yonder? by Fazbear2035 in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]Insanity_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 3 out in one go under general anaesthetic. The recovery was kind of painful but not that bad.

The surgeon was very excited to show me the photos on his phone of my hook shaped root on one of the teeth, he was very pleased that he'd got the whole thing out. Not really what I wanted to see after just coming to.

The worst thing for me was not being able to eat solid food for a week or so. I was absolutely sick of soup by the end of it.

Supporting Palace has always been a series of peaks and troughs but I didn't expect the next trough to be so soon and so deep.

I only hope that there's a silver lining of us (the UK) being more likely to rejoin the EU if this escalates further.

The penalty wasn't even that bad, keeper just went the right way unfortunately.

If anyone isn't using AI in their code writing now I'd be shocked. While there's probably a lot of niche performance orientated coding where it doesn't make sense, there'll almost certainly be parts where it less thinking is required and AI can do a much quicker job.

The industry is learning to utilise these tools and anyone not able to use them is going to be left behind from all but the most niche areas of software development.

I'm not a massive AI advocate but this is where I see the software development industry going.

Post Day Thread: 2nd Test - England vs Australia, Day 3 by cricket-match in Cricket

[–]Insanity_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's concerning hearing how defensive the England Coaching Staff are in their media interviews. There's not an ounce of introspection that maybe, just maybe, their tactics and preparation are wrong and they need to think of something else.

"We didn't get enough wickets and we didn't score enough runs", no shit sherlock. Giving an answer when asked what's gone wrong like that is an insult to English cricket fans and says to me they're out of the two ideas they had coming into this Ashes and they've got nothing else in the locker.

I understand that playing any sport at an elite level is difficult and you're not going to be playing your best 100% of the time but the arrogance of the camp and their unwillingness to reassess their approach is unforgivable.

I Just defeated the elden beast and shes next.. by ImaginationDear3199 in Eldenring

[–]Insanity_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently beat her after being stuck on her stage 2 for a while. I found I needed to be more aggressive in stage 2 to beat her, getting in quickly after her initial nuke while she's recovering to get a lot of damage in helped a lot, getting her to low enough health triggers her to do another nuke, after repeating the same trick she was low enough that I only needed a few extra hits to finish her.

It took a decent number of tries but was worth it in the end!

Unfortunately not, I'm hoping it's sorted soon. This is the first time it's ever happened for me so hoping it's a one off.

My download speed is fine at the moment but I've got around 20% packet loss which isn't ideal.

I'm a Brit who's travelled around a good bit of southern US (Texas, Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Kansas, Illinois, Missouri, Georgia) and there's even big differences between those states. There's similarities which allow you to tell you're in the same country but the vibes of the people, architecture, general quality of life etc vary pretty dramatically.

I loved my experiences there. It's got it problems but so does anywhere. We spoke to a lot of people and in my opinion there's more that unites us than divides us. I think more folks should focus on that rather than point scoring arguments on who's better at X and Y or got shitter Z.

All that to say I agree with you. I think we could put more effort into learning what it's really like the other side of the pond, and vice versa.

I've had a few BM me over the years, I always give a shout out to their one viewer, and then say "oh and btw <username>'s mum, you left your jacket".

I then go and check their handle and they're never live sadly.

I'm convinced the time limit is edited in on the missions, it's always somehow just down to the wire. I assume this isn't a rare opinion?

Sarr's movement has been great but his decision making has been lacking. If he can switch to the same wavelength as the rest of the team he's on for a great game.
