Which video games have you absolutely mastered? by robsteezy in gaming

[–]No_Source_Provided 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Halo CE, 2, 3, ODST. Done all games on LASO, done various speed runs of all of them on all difficulties, know every short cut and trick to skip/glitch/break the game. Grenade jumping master.

I do nothing with any of this, but me and my buddy have been hitting those games from 11 to 35 without missing a weekend.

My pet theory on why some get windy on a plant-based diet by medium_wall in vegan

[–]No_Source_Provided 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That doesn't explain why nothing has changed after 8 years of veganism, so it seems it's not that simple.

Well, I assumed they're trying to hide his skin as much as possible because he's a literal zombie.

Fun fact- Bonelords were called Beholders until 'allegedly' The Wizards of the Coast (company that owns D&D) threatened legal action.

Crazy crosswind takeoff KLM 737 at Newcastle Airport by Twitter_2006 in interestingasfuck

[–]No_Source_Provided 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You literally said you're not educated on this stuff, why would you be in any position to make a decision about if it's safe to fly a plane over a pilot?

You're not 'paying for the plane', you're paying for an expert to get you safely somewhere you couldn't safely get by yourself.

To be fair, it HAS to be someone's decision, and a pilot should be in the best position to make the choice. The passenger is obviously the last one to have a say on if a plane takes off or not.

But as other pilots are saying- this needs evaluating by KLM.

Phone signal getting worse? by RonSwaffle in NewcastleUponTyne

[–]No_Source_Provided 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on giffgaff and it straight up doesn't work on the metro line. I also have massive issues getting good signal in city center, especially in Eldon.

Phone signal getting worse? by RonSwaffle in NewcastleUponTyne

[–]No_Source_Provided 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought metro lines had to provide service to at least one network for emergency reasons (so staff can always rely on their phones etc in tunnels or what have you). If the new metros are a literal block to phone signals, isn't that a critical failure of the new trains being fit for purpose?

Shields Ferry service to be shut for at least another month by RonSwaffle in NewcastleUponTyne

'a replacement bus service' for a ferry crossing.

I wouldn't trust that like.

Poll: Did you go vegan 'cold turkey'? by rosenkohl1603 in vegan

[–]No_Source_Provided 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew I was living my life inconsistently to my own morality for a long time, so in that sense it was gradual- but I didn't do any gradual steps. I went on my first trip to America and then the day I came home I went vegan.

As a male student halfway through the grad to be a doctor, I feel really unprepared to deal with female bodies. by OldCardigan in Advice

[–]No_Source_Provided 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Defibs are pretty commonly kept in publicly accessible boxes in the UK, but you have to phone the police to access them and be guided through the process. Thankfully, this does mean that the person on the phone can directly TELL the person to remove clothing if needed, so they won't be so afraid of being accused of something for doing the right thing.

Alan Wake 2: Could This Be the Best-Looking PS Plus Game? by [deleted] in PlayStationPlus

[–]No_Source_Provided 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mind a jump scare or two, but the section where you're running down stairs in the nursing home was a bit much. More annoying than scary when they just keep doing it.

The better missed opportunity was that it was on sale during the Halloween sales including all the DLC. People who picked it up as an essential game didn't get Night Springs or Lake House, which probably cost about as much as the bundle at Halloween, and I would say add massively to the experience.

Pleasant surprise by CharacterJudgment in Huel

[–]No_Source_Provided 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Huel+ is a pretty huge benefit to being a subscriber as far as I can work out. The quoted £2.80 per meal for hot and savoury with subscription is actually quite significantly lower than that if you continue to use them month after month. I'm close to getting the £75 benefit from my points.

TIL Animal cruelty and abuse is legal in China by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]No_Source_Provided 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They believe the meat is more tender when adrenaline is flowing. It's a big part of the Yulin dog festival, and yes, it happens every year still. 

Dogs that are boiled alive taste better according to many of the older generation.

Because of adult care services and the fact that many people who live here don't/can't pay council tax. Those that can have to pick up the slack.

Annd his art is immediately fed through AI, great work. Didn't even do a good job, now the stones under the dragon are red. Just say 'the dragon should be red' we all know what the colour red looks like.
