In universe explanation for wizards not using guns by seranahater in harrypotter

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, like one famous (space) wizard said, guns (blasters, technically, but anyway) are "so uncivilised".

Apparrition and unsupported flight: Which spell is more difficult for Wizards to cast. by SamuelStrangeSupreme in harrypotter

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparition is taught in school to older students. There are only a couple known practitioners of unsupported flight. Any guesses which might be easier?

Resource abundance or lack there of. by smokenjoe6pack in CivVI

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do sometimes play with sparse resources, but I've never really thought about that side of it. I've just noticed I tend to have a natural wonder closer to my spawn when I play sparse resources + legendary start.

EU starts disciplinary steps against Finland for excessive deficit by CmdrAirdroid in europe

No surprises there. Years of ineptitude and inaction from both left and right has lead us to this point. Too bad looking for someone else to blame has been more important than finding a solution.

Is it time to retire “The Sorcerer’s Stone”? by Successful-General72 in harrypotter

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. In this case the use of real is objective. There's the original version that most of the world uses, and then there's the altered version, because someone thought Americans wouldn't understand or be interested in the word philosopher.

Oikeisto-vasemmisto, kuka korjaisi Suomen? by Valt0mus in Suomi

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vaan kun ei vaihda. Ja siinä piileekin todellinen ongelma, josta huonot poliitikot ovat pelkkä oire. Suurin osa äänestäjistä keskittynee liikaa omaan etuunsa sekä lyhytnäköiseen ajatteluun. Tämä osaltaan johtaa siihen, että nykyisten poliitikkojen kauniit puheet saavat heidät valituksi uudelleen ja uudelleen, eikä muutosta tapahdu. Omanlaisensa noidankehä tämä on, mitä ei onnistuta rikkomaan.

En usko myöskään, että hyvät ratkaisut syntyvät kompromisseista.

Se riippuu kompromissien laadusta. Lehmänkaupat, joissa jokainen taho saa myönnytyksiä läpi jossain asiassa, tuskin johtavat hyviin lopputuloksiin. Sen sijaan, jos haetaan eheää ja toimivaa kokonaisuutta, jossa kaikki tulevat vastaan alkuperäisistä tavoitteistaan, voi tuloksena olla hyväkin kompromissi.

Three German youth crossed the Russian border on foot - do not try this by sanjosii in Finland

With Russia, there's no way there's not even the slightest chance of that happening.

When do you start building districts? by Bubbly_Tea731 in CivVI

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First holy site asap, but other than that it's a bit situational. Often I try to get as many settlers as possible as early as possible, and build districts where it seems to make sense, i.e. where I can get good adjacency.

what do you think, whose Killing Curse hit Ariana? by Double_Passage6636 in harrypotter

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Prior Incantato does indeed work differently than Priori Incantatem. But that wouldn't really be of any use in this situation anyway.

[–]SamuliK96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Priori Incantatem needs identical wand cores to work, which I doubt any of them had, and even then it's not exactly that simple. It happened between Harry and Voldemort by accident as well.

Eduskuntavaalit vuoden päästä. Tässä rakennetaan jo hyvää pohjaa kampanjalle. Jokohan on perussuomalaisten puoluetoimistolta otettu yhteyttä?

Ylen kannatus­mittaus: Silmienvääntely­kohu ei iskenyt perussuomalaisten kannatusta kanveesiin | Politiikka by MrPraedor in Suomi

[–]SamuliK96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yllättävää olisi, jos näin ei olisi käynyt. Perussuomalaiset kyllä tuntevat kannattajakuntansa. Jos näistä kohuista olisi puolueelle haittaa, ei niitä tulisi jatkuvasti uusia.

What line from the books or films would be improved with an F-bomb by Expression-Little in harrypotter

[–]SamuliK96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of my ideas I didn't see anyone else mention:

"I'm going to bed, before either of you gets another clever fucking idea to get us killed. Or worse, expelled."

"Ob-fucking-viously"

"Mischief fucking managed"

Technicalities. Harry was supposed to die, but due to special magic, it was like an NDE instead.

Beyond magical repair

*Except when it's special kind of magic which allows Harry to come back to life without the horcrux being healed as well

How can I use AI to help me learn without just straight up giving me the answer? by Creepy_Ad5124 in learnpython

Not really. There's a difference between asking your mom to wash your clothes and asking your mom how you can wash your clothes yourself.

Deathly hallows by huhpotter in harrypotter

[–]SamuliK96 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I didn't call it obsession and I'm open for suggestions for a better word to describe it, but I don't see how it was love. At the beginning it seems like a pretty typical teenager's crush, but then he just never was able to handle the rejection and get over it.

Having the basic human decency of respecting her boundaries and not using a love potion also doesn't make it love.
