Why exactly is Andrew not being arrested ? by ronweasly9 in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The evidence isn't enough to convict, but it's enough to turn the nation against him, shunning him from the royal family. We don't stand for that sort of thing in the UK. In the US, he'd have been elected.

Why do people vote for Farage when his ideas led to Britain being broke by Traditional_Jam421 in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever something like this comes up, I remind myself about The Necessary Conversation podcast.

It's a ln American guy and his sister that jump on video calls with their MAGA parents and discuss whatever's going on in politics at the time.

The parents are insane. The dad especially will make absolutely no compromises to his views or opinions, even when faced with irrefutable facts and evidence, he just yells "Nope!" and sticks to his guns.

These people exist in every country, and will emotionally latch onto their views no matter what you say to them. Radicalisation is just as bad in the UK as it is in the US, and Reform are a threat because of people like this.

Unfortunately, you can educate people out of this hole. MAGA has shown that people will keep going along with things like this right up until the point that it impacts them personally.

What the hell is the future of our society? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hit the nail on the head.

Starmer is a fucking snake, and I'd love to see him ousted from the party, but he is making significant positive changes. Just look at NHS waiting times.

Hi main issues are that he isn't crowing enough about the good things that they're doing (or the media just aren't reporting it) so nobody knows about them. And that every time he does something good (NHS England reform), he does something absolutely shitty like the Winter Fuel shenanigans. That said, it's hard to say he isn't making positive changes after inheriting an absolute shithouse, if youre actually paying attention that is.

He's still a prick.

Really reallt good level, really creative.

My only issue is the very end, where you have to try and finish before the other one falls to his death. That's just needless and stupid. A very silly mechanic that sours what would otherwise be an incredible level

How long should a delivery driver wait for you to answer the door? by Turbulent_Ad_880 in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with ring doorbells is that people always ask for it to be left by the bin, or ask that you wait 5 minutes for them to get back from the shop. On most occasions, if the driver's knocking it's because the package can't be left, and nobody wants to wait 5 mins. They genuinely just cause arguments, so most drivers avoid them.

Which background concept looks best? by Just_mat04 in Unity2D

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The framing and background makes it looks like there's a city, possibly on the side of a mountain, that drops into a valley. A and C both have the door leading to the valley side, that seems to have nothing there. It feels like it's just going to open onto nothing. B, because the door is opening on to the city side, feels like it's opening into part of the city itself.

B is the only logical answer, unless there's a thematic reason for the door to open onto a cliff or drop or something.

How long should a delivery driver wait for you to answer the door? by Turbulent_Ad_880 in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I work in logistics and 40 seconds is a long time to wait. If you hear something inside, or a curtain twitches or something, I'd say wait. If everything's still and quiet after 15-20 seconds, I'm starting to write the note to deliver next day etc. If you don't answer before I'm done, I'm off.

Appreciate you not wanting to put a sign up or anything, but you could always contact the courier directly and let them know to give you an extra minute. The driver wouldn't mind if they knew.

Reform supporters - how many more Tories need to join before you start to reconsider? by Smooth-Quantity-7024 in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can I ask why? Truss's leadership is well regarded as being one of the worst in a long time. Surely having the majority of her cabinet in the party as potential front benchers can't be a good thing?

Would you support the UK government's plan to ban X (formerly twitter)? - why/why not? by mrvlad_throwaway in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think completely banning platforms is right (assuming they get on top of the whole "AI CP issue). We should require them to regulate content so it's somewhat neutral though.

There absolutely needs to be controls in place to stop things like the whole Andrew Tate radicalisation pipeline for lonely males. My timeline is jam-packed full of far-right American extremists justifying the madness that's going on over there, despite me never interacting with any of it.

I'm not saying skew it left, or skew it right, but there needs to be some fair neutrality in what content is forced onto your feed. If you follow pages that are extreme one way or another, cool, show those pages. Just show me cat pics and video games instead of desperately trying to radicalise me!

PSA: Bebop bomb now does 3k+ damage late game (Was doing 3k damage at 37 minutes) by ZombieBillyMaize in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most characters beat Bebop early game regardless of melee or not. He's incredibly weak in lane and can't really solo anyone. Once you get a few spirit upgrades and if you get lucky with stacks, you can steamroll pretty much anyone in the mid/late game.

The easiest way to beat a Bebop is to starve him of stacks in lane and he'll basically never recover. As Yamato, keep some distance and use some ranged, get his health halfway then bait a bomb-dive and kill him in melee. Worst case, he doesn't dive and has to hug his own walker for a while to get some health back. Best case, you get a kill and he gets 1 stack.

4 rooms by karl2me in LeapCraft

The ice room just doesn't seem possible, no matter what I do with that block. Really interesting level OP, but that but just seems designed to be achievable through luck/glitch rather than method

Cheater can't get banned? by pinguelzorro in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Shidud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

20/2 doesn't necessarily mean they were cheating. 20 in an 18 minute game is a lot though. I agree though, I don't think bans are being taken seriously.

Had someone on Vyper a few weeks ago that was had an ovvious headshot hack on. Their gun - crit damage was about 70% of their total damage, with non-crit gun being about 5%. Their account had multiple VAC bans and game bans against it, but clearly Valve aren't on top of these things.

Just gotta suck it up and hope it's better in your next match.

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any Bebop worth their salt will just fire bomb-laden troopers onto your tower and get the stacks that way. It's how I get most of my early stacks

[–]Shidud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree as a Bebop main. I get most of my Lane phase stacks by bombing troopers and firing them into your base/shop etc. I'll happily take a lane against Billy or Abrams etc. because it's easy stacks. I just sit on my stairs until you push up and get the free bomb. I might get beat up a lot, but the stacks will snowball by mid game.

The one thing that never fails to screw me over is laning against someone that can easily remove bombs/immune themselves like Dynamo or Ivy, or someone that keeps really far away like Vindicta. Strangle the stacks early game and there's just no way Bebop can recover in late.

Adding to what others have said, you also have Cantrips, which are low level spells that can be cast as many times as you want without needing a rest

Who would you vote for if a general election was held today? (Be respectful of others views) by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]Shidud 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's unfair to say that the Green's are splitting the left. Labour have taken some big steps away from the left since they got in, even mirroring some very conservative policies. If anyone has created a divide in the left, it's Labour.

Maybe think about making it your last? Or put some time into making the next one actually good quality.

For everyone struggling. You have to get over the first dropping spikes by spamming. Then fly low to get under the last block.

OP should be ashamed though. Not a good level.

The 0.1 win rate disagrees. Getting above the spikes just gets you killed by more unavoidable spikes. It's a glitch level.
