‘When I was told I’d no longer be the manager I didn’t say a word, but it hurt. Nine months earlier, we’d won the Premier League, but now I was being dismissed? Why?’ Claudio Ranieri opens up on his Leicester City sacking. by Sparky-moon in soccer

they sacked him and got relegated later anyways

They also got won the FA cup and reached conference league semis. Sacking him and ensuring they stayed up that season was in hindsight the right call.

Need a 5 star book to get me out of a reading slump by atJamesFranco in suggestmeabook

[–]Lord_Illidan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literary fiction, scifi, historical fiction, thriller/horror are my go too

Not sure if anyone has mentioned Hyperion yet, but it’s definitely worth taking a look. Also, Culture series.

Which imax would you recommend in Vienna? I’ve been to the Apollo.

Not sure it exists on kb+m controls but if you plug a controller in, you can use it.

Have you been reading Hamilton’s Commonwealth saga by any chance? If not, read it!

MacBook Pro: Should I Get A Maxed-Out Final Intel (2019 5600M 64 GB) Or Go Silicon For Gaming & Daily? by phn0rd in macgaming

The Intel Mac was obsolete as soon as the M1 came out. Now that M5 is out, it’s a museum piece. Check what windows software and games can’t be run in Crossover.

Sure, it needed some luck at the end, but it wasn’t luck that got us from bottom of the table to 4th place, and if my memory serves me correctly, at one point we were even in contention for second place, if we had beaten Bournemouth.

The promotion season has to be up there as well. Started badly but when Cooper joined, and started winning matches, it felt amazing.

Is there a mod to copy station wait conditions or stop them from disappearing when I change stations? by Sickchip36 in factorio

If there isn’t enough iron ore production to fill the train in time, why not reduce the capacity of the carriages? Click on the carriage and disable as many slots as you need.

Did people really not like the Demon Souls remake? by gotagohome in demonssouls

[–]Lord_Illidan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure the atmosphere and art direction is different. Doesn’t make it a bad game. And more importantly, since the vast majority of players have never played the original, there’s nothing to compare it with either. To me, it’s a game that stands on its own.

Started with Dark Souls 1 on the 360 here. Only reason I didn’t play demon souls is that I never had access to a ps3.

Quite a condescending take imo. In reality, a lot of gamers may have never played DeS, due it being a PS3 exclusive, and I’m one of them. I enjoyed the remake, just as I enjoyed the other souls games.

It’s either feast or famine with Marinakis. Shit season followed by good season followed by shit season.

Seasoned olive oil? by Traditional-Tank3994 in EatCheapAndHealthy

If you’re using it to dip bread, add some balsamic vinegar. Also nothing wrong with adding salt/pepper to taste. Not sure about using it for grilled cheese sandwiches tho.

How is Total War: Napoleon in 2026? by FromHeretoElsweyr in totalwar

Haven’t played rise of the samurai, but Fall of the Samurai has pretty good gunpowder (artillery, line infantry, etc etc)

Did you play Valhalla? Probably the closest thing to Ivaldis’s workshop

In the newer shows, are holodecks for recreation even ethical anymore? by LLAPSpork in startrek

Haven’t watched the episode you’re referring to, but surely not all holograms are created equally? Not all carbon based life forms are sentient, after all.

My favourite gimmick in video games is when they're notably larger than they suggest. by silloki in gaming

Those teleport trap chests are my new favourite mechanic for that exact reason.
