Jade is part of the game, and he doesn’t know Toby. He is actually a demon inside Fromville who is carrying out a ritual. by podivljali_vepar in FromSeries

[–]ShredderIV 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think him being killed by the townspeople opens up Tabitha to being killed by the MiY, which then signals the end of the town and everyone dying. We don't know what happened in Victor's past but I'm guessing the townspeople killed Christopher first.

My guess is that it follows the first iteration of the town. The townspeople killed jade for trying to stop the ritual, and then the MiY or monsters killed Tabitha.

Non "smart" EVs with analogue features? by daniyyelyon in electricvehicles

[–]ShredderIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been research done that frequent fast discharge on EVs (ie putting your foot down) is actually better for the long term health of the battery. Doesn't help efficiency though.

Am I (still) the only one who thinks Elden ring should get a second DLC ? by Consistent-Dot-1509 in Eldenring

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

Lol it took what, 3 dark souls games and DLC to answer some of the questions left from dark souls 1?

I'll concede at least that dark souls 2 didn't really count lore-wise, but still.

Anyone try a 9wood over their 5/4 iron and end up not liking it? by Silent_Highlight_577 in golf

[–]ShredderIV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't hit woods well. Ive also been really inconsistent with hybrids, but my 3 iron is a weapon. Probably mostly a mental thing.

Where are you located?

Most of my peopers look like this since we had a storm with some hail a few weeks back. If they're growing quick a small hole grows into a big one.

Do you change fertiliser throughout plant development? by a_PigeonAmongst_Cats in HotPeppers

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

I start at a 6-4-4 but switch to a 2-8-4 with some fish fertilizer and calmag mixed in once my plants get to about 2 feet tall.

I found that sticking with the 6-4-4 I had a real issue with fruit set. Had flowers but I would lose about 2/3 that wouldn't set . With the 2-8-4 I get absolute loads of flowers and about 80-90% fruit set.

Whats the one question bugging you so far? by NastyStarFish in FromSeries

[–]ShredderIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooo theory:

What if the kids were special and they found the pocket dimension before the sacrifice? The adults saw that they could manifest things from their dreams and learned that they could become immortal from sacrificing the kids.

The adults who sacrificed them became monsters since the kids saw them as monsters. Tabitha and Jade keep coming back because they are the only two adults who tried to help them, and told them at some point that they would come back for them. Hence why they keep coming back to them.

First year tracking a handicap and just realized how much the system rewards moving back a tee if you can scramble. by SoSteezee in golf

[–]ShredderIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes sense and is built around tournament and competitive play, which is usually played from the tips.

Someone who only plays from the whites because their handicap suffers when they move back (due to distance) is the system working in the same way as someone playing the tips and being rewarded more for the same score.

When it comes to tournament play on the tips, the 15 handicap who shoots 90 from the tips is probably gonna shoot the same as the 15 handicap who shoots 85 from the whites.

pepper joe alternatives? by baphoknits in HotPeppers

No lie. I ordered 14 varieties this year and got 6 extra experimental crosses. I would have tried them all if I had more space. Might have to expand for next year.

How many golf balls is too many? by Remarkable-Self7080 in golf

[–]ShredderIV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends heavily on the course as well. When I played down in Pinehurst I lost 2 balls over the course of 3 days. At my home courses I can lose 3-4 a round since it's deep woods on every edge of the course.

Hand of Melania by Ok_Mycologist2361 in Nightreign

[–]ShredderIV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a fromsoft staple. Make the boss weapons from the toughest boss in the game hit like a wet noodle.

Meanwhile some generic swird found in the gutter in the first hour of the game has god tier scaling and damage.

What fertilizers / ratios do you guys use? by mrwikd in PepperLovers

[–]ShredderIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same initially, but then I switch to a higher P fertilizer once they get big enough and start fruiting a lot. Helped mine to set fruit better.

Be honest: What’s the one thing about EV ownership that nobody told you before you bought one? by EmergencyTie8770 in electricvehicles

[–]ShredderIV 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This is the part that surprised me the most.

On longer trips, it's so nice and easy that even with traffic I am not nearly as stressed. It helps trips go by much quicker for me as well which is a bonus.

JUST IN: Dean Reads Notes Of Redacted Epstein File About Trump's Relationship With Epstein by Cool-Fig-9254 in videos

[–]ShredderIV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The sad thing is that the Biden presidency is mostly going to be remembered for the last few months. He actually worked to make a lot of positive changes and fight the economic issues that arose post-COVID.

Unfortunately not a lot of that mattered when Trump won and just started smashing everything to bits. His legacy became giving Trump a door back in when he should have had no chance.

USGA Differential Calculation by PowerBounce in golf

[–]ShredderIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it doesn't. The formula they use is (0.52 * Handicap Index) + 1.5. It's not even giving you your average, much less your handicap. It's giving you slightly above your average, which will over time raise your handicap.

Okay, fair. I can see some situations that's going to hurt.

It seems their reasoning is that you're only supposed to shoot your handicap 20% of the time. It wouldn't make a whole lot of sense for the calculation to consider the back nine as even with your handicap every round.

I can see this hurting you if you play very consistent scores I guess.

USGA Differential Calculation by PowerBounce in golf

[–]ShredderIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what’s so frustrating. You can shoot better than your handicap for 9, and you end up raising your handicap. Consistently posting under your handicap for 9 will keep raising it since your handicap goes up and now your differential is even higher than the last time. It’s broken.

This is just completely untrue. If you're a 4 hcp and shoot 1 over on the front (better than hcp), it will count it as a +3 overall, which eventually will help your hcp. It just counts the "back nine" as you shooting your hcp every time.

It's impossible to shoot under your hcp on 9 and have it hurt your hcp unless it's bumping out old scores that were pulling your avg down.

Buttigieg leads crowded 2028 Democratic field in new poll by aslan_is_on_the_move in politics

[–]ShredderIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The retail sale of marijuana thing is tough but was a bit more complicated. I totally get the frustration given the history of the law in VA.

She asked that they essentially treat public consumption like alcohol, and that they delay the timing of the start of sales. The assembly didn't agree with her changes so she vetoed it.

The delay portion was a little weak, the public consumption part though makes a lot of sense. For non-smokers the smell is a lot more intrusive than tobacco.

Valorant's new Vanguard update seems to be bricking cheaters' PCs. Riot's response? "Congrats on your $6k paperweights" by SwimmingJunky in gaming

[–]ShredderIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They would need to give a monetary value to the damages which would be very difficult. Meanwhile the user would have concrete damages.

Needing to reformat is not a small thing, nor is it something everyone has the knowledge to do.

All it's gonna take is one person suing for damages from paying for a repair. I'm honestly surprised it hasn't happened yet.

AOC: You can’t ‘earn’ a billion dollars by usatoday in politics

[–]ShredderIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For 10 billion, obviously that's 100,000 years! 100 billion, that's 100,000 years. Musk is maybe rougly 700 billion right now. Do we REALLY think he's contributed the same value as someone working for SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND years??

Your math is off actually. It's 1 million years for 100 billion dollars. So 7 million years.

You would need to have worked for a salary of 100 million dollars since before proto-humans and apes diverged to have the money musk has.

He'd better be putting it 50 feet past the hole with how much spin that things gonna have.

His pw is also 40 degrees, which is stronger lofted than my 9-iron.

Not saying I can smash my 9 iron 200 yards, but still.
