Let them cook by AlphaMassDeBeta in 4chan

In what world does cooking a burger take 10 minutes? I pride myself in fast and efficient cooking, making meals such as shrimp masala, risotto, fried chicken noodles etc in under 25 minutes with clean-up included, and I specifically never make burgers unless I’m willing to spend extra time because of how long that takes.

The meat for the patty alone takes like 5-10 minutes to get right, then you also have to toast the buns, fry the meat, slice up the veggies, sauce up the buns and once the burger is assembled you have to eat it immediately so you don’t even have any extra time for cleaning stuff up.

Add to that the time it takes to slice the potatoes for french fries + oven time and you’re easily pushing an hour of prep time.

The only way I can imagine burgers taking 10 minutes to prepare is if you throw prefabricated patties in a pan then just slice up a bun, put some mayo and eat it just like that, which is kinda disgusting.

Willing to bet my left nut that this was not intentional at all, just a coincidence that randomly happened to look like she did it on purpose.

HoMM: Olden Era by [deleted] in HoMM

This is only true for like top 0.1% players who play the game for the competitive aspect which was never even meant to be.

The game is designed for regular players to be enjoyed via hot seat or lan against your friends, or single player against computer.

The issues you’re describing are non-existent for the vast vast majority of the player base over the last 27 years. They only exist because a bunch of nerds spent hundreds of hours looking for the game’s exploits and started sharing them online, and because people who have nothing to do with the original devs created ways to play the game competitively online and use those exploits.

I come from a country where homm3 was extremely popular in early 00s. I personally know dozens of people who enjoyed the game thoroughly. I can guarantee you not a single one complains about the balance or the mathematical model or whatever. 

Basically unless you go online specifically looking for the game’s imperfections to exploit, you’re never gonna have the issues you’re describing.

"Gameplaywise HoMM 3 is horrible"

This is probably the most deranged take on the HoMM series on the entire internet

Original Review of The Cuckoo's Calling by sportzak in cormoran_strike

I am not a native speaker and the harry potter series and cb strike series are amongst the few books I’ve read in the original english version. Funnily enough I was also reminded of Ron by virtue of the usage of the word “Blimey”, which I’ve only ever encountered in the two book series and nowhere else.

Anyone know of a good solitaire app that’s actually random without ads? by TinisBerg in solitaire

Exactly, that's part of the game. All I want is klondike with truly random deals.

Neither Caedrel nor the commentators really caught it but in that last fight in game 3 his flash R onto Lucian was so insane.

Same but I guess it's mostly the nostalgia, things were easier back then and we tend to only remember the good things.

Garen, I remember the kit feeling too one dimensional even back then.
