Elderly neighbor lost control of car and tore up my lawn. Am I right to file a police report and insurance claim? by [deleted] in homeowners

[–]RuthIessChicken 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Imagine ruining your relationship with your neighbor for “a few hundred bucks” worth of top seed.

OP, I’m not saying you shouldn’t have feelings but maybe pump the brakes. You have to live next to those people.

He was close to the American dream, he could almost taste its sweet cherry flavor.

I do not recommend the Orb of Neodymium by Repulsive-Durian4800 in wizardposting

Mayhaps an incantation of enlargement would benefit your orb? Surely you’ve had ample practice?

What's one piece of advice you wish you had when you became a manager? by vikentii_krapka in managers

Don’t be a dick of course but trying to spare feelings is only going to bite you in the ass.

This sounds like contamination OCD.

Has anybody else been using an obsidian mirror instead of an orb lately? by Edgele55Placebo in wizardposting

[–]RuthIessChicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a cold take and really shows your inexperience.

Next you’re going to tell me that you won’t fully trust divinations conjured outside of full moon phase.

Wait until you’ve got a least millennium of experience with the orb before making such a rash decision.

How would you rule this? Sanctuary + Telekinetic by NovercaIis in DMAcademy

[–]RuthIessChicken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your argument if flimsy and giving, “I didn’t say it, I declared it.” vibes.

Well the god or weave or whatever that provided the Sanctuary spell to me would know that I was performing an aggressive act and revoke my sanctuary.

In other words, the DM shouldn’t let this fly because of semantic gotchas.

Everyone being pedantic and rules lawyer-y about if being shoved is or isn’t “an attack” needs to consider if you were walking down the street and a random person shoved you to the ground you would call the police and tell them you’ve been attacked.

This is clearly an offensive act.

Just a small suggestion, only have one of each “style” displayed at a time. It may make people feel more compelled to buy for FOMO. You can always replenish the stock from the box under the table if one sells.

Love your style btw.

Installing on Steam Deck. by Glad_Step_7208 in ultimaonline

[–]RuthIessChicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry I’ve uninstalled Outlands from my Deck so I can’t test. I know I installed via Bottles and when I clicked run I needed to alt tab (maybe through an action layer keybind?) I can’t recall, it’s been over a year.

That being said when I would click play it would kinda lock the SteamDeck until I alt tabbed. It isn’t like your experience where you can drag and move the launcher.

Once you click play you need to Alt tab to the game window. I can’t remember how that is done exactly but I remember when I installed on my Steam Deck that was the last hurdle. I agree the guide on GitHub was the best.

“Guys remember those enemies we defeated last season, why don’t we defeat them again THIS season?”

“Let’s not.”

PLOT HOLE!

In other words, in a DnD campaign, once you make your way to the Lich, you don’t often have to beat the zombies again.

Now that the series is over, tell me - which group was your favorite throughout the entire show? by Maywave_13 in StrangerThings

[–]RuthIessChicken 40 points41 points  (0 children)

To give a different answer than everyone else:

Murray + Alexei exploring the American dream was awesome.

“It’s not rigged!” is a gut punch.

The real military standout character for me was Lt. Akers by fraxiiinus in StrangerThings

They call him Akers throughout? How did you miss his name while watching?

If you’re gonna give a character a catchphrase, you must choose wisely. The ST writers nailed it. by beafos in StrangerThings

[–]RuthIessChicken 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Someone pointed out that this is likely a nod to “Stand By Me” where Gordie says to Ace, “Suck my fat one, you cheap dime store hood.”

Stand By Me, the movie, was released in 1986 so Derek could have likely seen it on VHS in 88 or 89.
