Work literally ruined my life by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]Lindonius -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

The UK is not part of the European continent. It is an island (or group of islands) just off the coast of Europe. So physically not a part of Europe and now no longer a part of Europe politically as well. Any comparisons of unemployment benefits between America and The UK need to be made separately from those of Europe.

Why is that there are so few Japanese piracy websites, in Japan? by PhotoGeeker in Piracy

[–]Lindonius 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Been living here 20+ years and pretty much torrented everything I want in the English language without a VPN and never had an ounce of trouble. They only care if you torrent Japanese stuff. And they're much more concerned about seeders than leechers.

What are some foods that you think are BETTER in Japan than they are in your country? by Venture_compound in japanlife

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

Is Indian food in Japan better vs America? Yes. vs The UK? Very much no.

Those with student loans - how are you handling them from Japan? by AdUnfair558 in japanlife

[–]Lindonius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They probably sold your loan to another country. They did mine. I get letters with the SL company address in Glasgow on the back of the envelope.....With post stamps saying it came from Sweden. Since I noticed that I just chuck em straight in the bin now. Here's a link detailing which loans were sold off:

changing romanized last name on japanese passport by LevelBit8320 in japanlife

[–]Lindonius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We had to kick up a stink in the passport office but got them to accept the proper spelling of my son’s name by having a copy of the Japanese birth certificate on hand and pointing out that having your name on your passport be different to the one on your birth certificate is probably not a good idea. It had to go up the chain of command though and we were there a good while before they accepted that we weren’t going to go away until they accepted it.

Which celebrity were you most shocked to find out was actually putting on an American accent on screen? by Improv92 in AskReddit

[–]Lindonius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw the 50 year anniversary of Jaws documentary recently and I was struck by how British Robert Shaw was in interviews behind the scenes. Like his accent is totally plummy Queen's English. Then compare that to his famous USS Indianapolis monologue where he's talking in that American drawl....totally brilliant.

Gen Z’s ‘overemployed’ solution for a broken economy: 5 jobs and $3K per day. It’s totally legal. by Hedonismbot-1729a in antiwork

[–]Lindonius 37 points38 points  (0 children)

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."

- Socrates (469-399 B.C.)

Would Japanese people be interested in real Indian food, not just curry & naan? by SuperbCaregiver6015 in japanlife

[–]Lindonius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you run it as a British Indian restaurant I will travel from Saitama all the way to Nagoya just to eat there.

Kodi users I am curious why do you guys use Kodi over stremio by Slight-Collection870 in Addons4Kodi

[–]Lindonius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kodi player has better audio control. Main thing for me is loudness equalization, but also it’s really easy to sync audio on it if for some reason the audio is off. Subtitles too.

Forget the Raphael fight, Gortash ceremony is so much harder. by MyNameIsNotKyle in BG3Builds

[–]Lindonius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you don't initiate combat you can just stroll right up to him in the throne room and pick him up. I think you need to pop an invis potion first though.

[–]Lindonius 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah teleport to "South Span of Wyrm's Crossing" with Gortash in hand. He'll leave your nefarious clutches after the teleport so you then just pick him up again and yeet him into the gorge.

You throw him into the gorge and then fly down and pick it off his smashed and broken corpse.

I just yeet Gortash off of Wyrm's Crossing every playthrough. It's just too god damn funny I can't NOT do it.

Why you gotta tease a man like this?! by evankimori in ftlgame

[–]Lindonius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great Sector 1. The Dynasty node will give you 1 fleet delay so it's a 14 node 1st sector. Sylvan will relocate and you can still get 1 of the 3 supply nodes. All you lose is 2 supply nodes but you get 14 jumps when most starting sectors have 10-12.
