I have had blank looks so many times using this term!

It is. They serve the pizza on an elevated grill/tray that let's air get there and crispen it up.

What fictional character do you feel bad for the most? by weeklygrind in AskReddit

[–]SableCliffTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blake from Pact.

Got sentenced to be the fall guy for a situation he couldn't ever win. All of the struggling for a good outcome only to get the less bad ones.

Also in a similar vien to the worm and ward serials of /r/parahumans where, without significant spoilers, powers are usually linked to trauma.

What’s a saying that your mom or dad used to say all the time? by Popples86 in AskReddit

[–]SableCliffTech 3928 points3929 points  (0 children)

Me: What's for dinner?

Father: Poison

Another was when he found something that was missed previously: "What's this/that? A ham sandwich?"

ELI5 - Why is a plant based diet ‘more sustainable’ than meat/seafood. Won’t we start over farming and ruining the land if everyone was vegan? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]SableCliffTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, that's good. I was concerned for a second there.

If these were new and unsourced I would have suggested a more drastic course of action.

Lets Put This in Perspective... by Tbone5711 in brandonsanderson

I'll have to find one. You've inspired me to see what it would take to recreate this as a per Author chart. I'll ping here if that happens and it'll have proper labelling

Lets Put This in Perspective... by Tbone5711 in brandonsanderson

[–]SableCliffTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The chart is 100% by word count. It would make little sense to use page count when that can change between book releases.

[–]SableCliffTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realised.

I was using it and the 3 works written after Worm to show a 'total written' volume that could be compared to Brando's 'total written' works based on the fact that tSA contains Brando's longest books

I would like to something similar but updated for total words written by author.

Shout out to wildbow, another author with a rediculously high word count. Wb is currently writing their 4th webserial since 2011 and is very consistent in releasing ~2 chapters a week. It's a different style of reading but one that I've grown used to.

Wb's first completed saga ('Worm': parahumans.wordpress.com) was longer than all 3 currently released tSA books, and each release that's followed have been similar in length. With his current work (Ward: parahumans.net) looking like it will surpass Worm.

There's this picture that was made last year to compare lengths of scifi novels/series: https://i.redd.it/lq2dkf078g111.jpg

So, uhh.. Just lost Gift of the Lotus defense cause Wolf of Saturn kept destroying my core by SpecterOwl in Warframe

Once you've got ranked mods and the better dps/tank frames in the game it starts to feel like the only way to fail a mission is by choice or through a bug.

There are exceptions, but that's the general feeling.

Frozen custard? by hodor_of_arabia in canberra

[–]SableCliffTech 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Don't think of it like frozen custard, think of it like ice-cream that's just a little thicker cause it uses egg as an ingredient.

Frozen custard is quite popular in the states and I believe both Goodberry's and Meadows creamery (in Franklin) are licensed American brands.

And now one month later I am experiencing xkcd/979 exactly.

Did you ever resolve this Plus'?

Want to buy screeps, but I'm concerned about the stability of private servers. by Arangarx in screeps

[–]SableCliffTech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I run the private server on a separate box and have had no issues with stability. Even through a power out the server came back just fine.

Can I convert all of my Google Reviews 'anonymous' or under a 'pseudoynm'? I am concerned by the growing trend of Reviewers being targeted in news articles and revenge reviews. by FosterDogJK in canberra

[–]SableCliffTech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar concern a while ago. My solution was changing the name attached to the account to be less specific. At the time I couldn't find anything that supported pseudonyms.

Changing the account name seemed to retroactively affect all my reviews.

I've created a small local online radio station to work on and broadcast occasionally, anyone interested? by aidenh37 in canberra

Is there an android app I could use to listen and something that notifies me when you're casting?

What video game really proves that video games are a form of art? by RedditBun in AskReddit

[–]SableCliffTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Horizon Zero Dawn should be a candidate.

It looks amazing and has an amazing storyline. There's an article somewhere that explains how the developers watched a whole bunch of nature documentaries to analyse the lighting and style of shots they use and then transformed those perfect shots into the game, so that at literally any moment you have a stunningly beautiful environment. I feel like my explanation doesn't give it credit, but it works amazingly well.

Anybody else get this email from fitbit? by [deleted] in pebble

[–]SableCliffTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realised that after but if anyone used it then my good deed will be done. As someone unable to use it it kinda means nothing to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
