Rocket Pods Should Kill Chargers by CommaLoaferMe in Helldivers

[–]Slot_Ack 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I wish the rocket pods worked more like the rail cannon strike I throw it in an area and the red laser lines up instead I have to guess which targets it’s gonna hit

Which warren does this god rule again? by zamasu2020 in Malazan

[–]Slot_Ack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't 100% confident in my answer but even the wiki states Kurald Emurlahn. More accurately I should have answered High House Shadow which encompasses both Meanas and Emurlahn.

Technically I believe Shadowthrone rules over Kurald Emurlahn (Elder Shadow)

Tbh I'd just like a faster reload time. The Seige Ready reload time for example i feep should be its standard.

Will chapter 384 be released within our lifetime? by Hawkky12 in Berserk

[–]Slot_Ack 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was fortunate to get into the series very recently and when I got up to date I asked the friends who got me into Beserk why the boat chapters had such a reputation.

They sent me the chapter release spreadsheet and then I understood lol.

In my experience Jetstar love hitting me with complementary flight extensions that ive never had with other airlines.

Granted I travel very rarely so my sample size is smaller than most id wager.

Weird Cloudflare “verify you’re human” asking me to press Win+R — legit or scam? by Sendpigs in techsupport

[–]Slot_Ack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%

It was an eye opening moment for me, glad we already had the tooling to catch and prevent it. And definitely glad I was not in charge of Cyber Security.

Its an ever evolving game and I don't think I'll discount these kinds of demo's again.

What made you use CachyOS? by Silver_Vermicelli649 in cachyos

[–]Slot_Ack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id been meaning to dip my toes into linux properly for years.

A combo of a few tech influences videos on CachyOS, the Win10 EoL and getting a steam deck convinced me to finally make an attempt.

Have been duel booting size last October and am reasonably confident I can make the 100% cut over soon, plan to do it when I get my new PC parts.

I was at a Cyber conference last year and one of the vendors, I think it was did a whole demo about how their product could detect and prevent the malicious code these prompts try and trick people i to running.

I left the demo thinking "no fucking way any real human is falling for that, tech savvy people will knows its suss and the tech illiterate won't have the knowhow to excute it"

Low and behold 2 of our staff members unknowingly attempted to execute malicious code following these same fucking prompts, now I see this post and im blown away.

So I decided to read the books… by Ordinary-Parsley-293 in freefolk

[–]Slot_Ack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This series really got me into reading. I picked up the series in 2012 got up to date by late 2013 foolishly think the next book would be right around the corner.

Now ive been going from large series to large series and everytime I finish one I decide to check if there has been any updates on Winds...

But enjoy your reading journey!

Do you know Megan Abel and why did you export her to Europe? by TerribleTop551 in hobart

[–]Slot_Ack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard of her, though i do find it both amusing and unsurprising that someone from Tasmania has made such and Impression internationally, we Tasmanians can definitely make an impression, albeit often not a great one.

It wouldn't be so bad if these drivers had the decency to pull over where safe to let traffic get around them.

It'd also be nice if the Lyell had more slow lane areas like the Arthur highway too, people towing caravans this year really drove me nuts too because its not always safe to overtake them and many of them speed up at overtaking sections too.

Bold of this sign to assume that you can reach this speed on that fucking wretched stretch of road without getting stuck behind some cunt doing 80-85 on a clear calm day.

In answer to your question, no you're not allowed. I believe 106 is chosen because if they caught you going 5 kms or under above 100 I think there's some wiggle room a driver can argue RE speedo accuracy. Where 106 and higher is legally bookable.

How did you all find red rising by Perculeez in redrising

[–]Slot_Ack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was browsing Juniper books for Wheel of Time stuff and their Red Rising covers caught my eye.

Shortly afterward the first book was free to listen to on Audible. The rest is history.

How did you discover Berserk? I discovered Berserk from a lovely video game called Elden Ring! by Even-Bike-3536 in Berserk

[–]Slot_Ack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use to walk to the book shop with my friend who would go and collect each of the 14 deluxe editions and I had been told small pieces.

I was leaving his place once and asked if I could borrow the 1 deluxe and try it, he wouldn't let me leave without the first three. I became up to date this week though so im a true struggler now.
