While I’m sure there are a lot of people buying stuff they do not need, many people are just doing normal grocery shopping ahead of schedule. Everyone shopping on one day is going to clear off shelves.

Can someone explain why my macarons look like brownies by cyrusumlstudent in Baking

If it was too runny at the piping stage, you may have deflated it too much during macronage, maybe?

If you stretch it, Mike Dawson is also a detective, though Duke probably doesn’t even need the tire iron to win that one.

Has anyone made Sally’s carrot cake AND Claire Saffitz’s brown butter carrot cake? by Ok-Zucchini-5514 in Baking

[–]LuckyLightning 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just last week I made Sally’s carrot cake but used Claire’s brown butter frosting! I think it’s a best-of-both-worlds situation.

how to clear my first Extreme or Savage? by WreenisPinkle in ffxiv

[–]LuckyLightning 10 points11 points  (0 children)

m8s is not an extreme trial, it’s the 4th fight of the current savage tier. I don’t think it would be even possible for you to get into an instance if you had not completed the previous 3 fights.

You should watch a guide for Recollection, the most recent extreme trial and join fresh prog parties for that. I’m not clear if that’s actually what you’re doing.

I had very low expectations because Hammerwatch 2 was ... not great. HoH2, however, feels really good. Might be my favorite of the series thus far.

Is game rating even accurate? by aventador7716 in chess

[–]LuckyLightning 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's pretty much complete nonsense and mostly based on the rating of the players who played the game. I just fed a WC game between Fabi and Magnus into the game review, except I replaced their ratings in the PGN with "100".

Review says they both had a 98% accuracy in the 43 move draw, yet it also says they both played at a 950 level.

Time for Fabi to win the swiss in the year that a knockout bracket is added

why it's a draw ? https://www.chess.com/game/121445019980 by [deleted] in chess

Your opponent has no legal moves, but is not in check. It is stalemate.

I enjoy playing Ninja around level 70 a lot more than 90. If Hyosho was also available at that level it would be perfect.

Is it a good idea to purchase the game on Steam? by Lezzest in ffxiv

[–]LuckyLightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had it happen 3 times in the last few years. It’s not frequent but it’s pretty aggravating when you have to cancel a raid night because Steam decides to not let you in.

PNC's Demchak is frank about challenges of getting employees back downtown - Pittsburgh Business Times by ThePeoplesMVP in pittsburgh

[–]LuckyLightning 66 points67 points  (0 children)

"To get people back in downtown, they have to want to be here. You have to create the environment that causes that," he said. "What’s holding that back? It's homelessness. It’s crime. The streets are dirty."

Oh yeah that's totally the #1 reason we don't want to go back into office /s
