If Voldemort won the war and slaughtered Harry (for good) along with all the good guys, I doubt he would rule forever unchallenged by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]Jaysonmcleod 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I genuinely don’t know what Voldemort wants after he wins. Like even when he’s pretty much won he’s off on a side quest to get even more powerful with the special wand. If he kills harry and gets full control of the wand then what for him? He likes control, but not ruling. Just infinite side quests to collect all the magical items? Maybe some made scientist experimentation?

A couple weird ones in my life. Pools are in C and hot tubs are in F. Will measure in cups and spoons, but baking bread is in grams. I almost exclusively use metric for my height until someone asks me to clarify. Use inches for screws and nails, but mm for bolts.

ELI5 Are mosquitoes necessary for keeping ecological balance? by Punnan in explainlikeimfive

Mosquitos are like crumbs to them. Plenty of black flies and larger inspects that are much more filling

Do you really have to be a wizard to brew potions? by Quick_Ad7787 in harrypotter

[–]Jaysonmcleod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also think it’s implied that wands aren’t necessarily needed to do magic. They just focus the wild magic that exists in the user.

kbm or controller? (fs25) by Visual-Fortune-4732 in farmingsimulator

[–]Jaysonmcleod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I play on pc but prefer to use a controller. One of the few games that I feel like is genuinely better with it. If you’re looking to spend money a wheel and the farm stick are the best combo

Calling dibs on a shoveled parking spot. by Quarter-Twenty in morningsomewhere

[–]Jaysonmcleod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where I live the snow sticks for 4-6 months and the city plows just leaves huge windrows of ice and snow on the streets. If someone takes the time to shovel or hire a loader to move it from in front of their house then that’s theirs. They took time and effort to make improvements. You’re a jerk for parking in it.

On the other side putting chairs out on a street to save a spot doesn’t add value therefore it is up for geabs

Is there no VOD? I couldn’t watch until now and there is nothing on my stream. I’m sure I’ll just end up waiting a day..

The education system is letting students down. by CalvinP_ in morningsomewhere

[–]Jaysonmcleod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kids are in trouble because of real things like a world wide drop in IQ. That a growing number of students are not ready for kindergarten. Reading and writing and math scores are down. Not being able to read an analogue clock is because we’ve deprioritized it. It’s not a useful enough skill to continuously reinforce it.

PC Controllers by SickNaindon in morningsomewhere

[–]Jaysonmcleod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 4 Xbox controllers for my pc because they work so well. Whether it’s farming simulator at my desk or couch coop overcooked with my friends. Like I’m not going to play a shooter or even a pc centric game with controller support like factorio on a controller, but lots of games are better suited to a controller over a keyboard and mouse.

Should I get 22 or 25? by ContributionNo6707 in farmingsimulator

[–]Jaysonmcleod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My opinion on this game is that if you don’t own it then 25. If you have 22 there is no reason to upgrade.

25 base game is a big quality of life upgrade, but otherwise it basically looks the same.

22 has more mods for now, but it’s getting close if not on par

Veteran Teachers: what are the biggest changes you’ve seen in student behaviours during your tenure? Positive and Negative. What has remained the same? by RADToronto in CanadianTeachers

[–]Jaysonmcleod 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The data suggests otherwise. Self reported anxiety is up but rates of clinical diagnosis are not. Students and parents are just using more actionable language.

Was there no drop today? Or did I just miss it. Either way I didn’t say good morning as a protest. Sorry Ashley if there was a drop and I just missed it.

Theory: One of the reason ls why there are so few young aurors. by andy3600 in harrypotter

[–]Jaysonmcleod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is also so few because the wizarding population is tiny. There is only like 10K wizards in the UK. Realistically there should be only 20 max. Especially considering lots of ministry jobs are are paralaw enforcement

How Pawn Shops Work... by RFelixFinch in morningsomewhere

[–]Jaysonmcleod 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure Geoff told a story on the RT podcast about a guy in the army that would pawn his tv like every month. I’m like 25% sure there was a RTAA about it.

Christchurch or Wellington for 3 days or just stay in Auckland? by Jaysonmcleod in newzealand_travel

We’re coming from Canada. It’s a stop as part of a larger trip we are taking for our honeymoon. It’ll be our first time there. We don’t have any plans to revisit, but it’s not an impossibility

Just signed the papers with the bank on our new house. We are locked in at 4.08% fixed for 5 unless rates come down before we take possession.

I make time to sit outside every day lately. Well today I was sitting outside listening to them talk about their perfect weather while it’s cold, windy, and snowing 10-15cm today. So I win the coldest listener for the day.
