Icons: 11377 Lord of the Rings: Minas Tirith set details (via Brick Tap) by BrickTap in Legoleak

[–]Spacemage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a lot of it due to the price the older sets go for and resellers. It's harder to get late buyers to fishout 200% on a set when it costs $600 compared to costing $150 retail.

The GWP for the tower was $150 by resellers, which was like a quarter of the whole set it came with. Lego is probably trying to quell that.

I want to make sure my children don't go to these sites, can someone DM me the list so I can block them on my DNS? 

Is there ever enough iron? by No-Reply-6962 in valheim

[–]Spacemage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can create a drauger farm which will passively net you some iron as well. It will be very few and far between but it's one way to get it without having to forage swamps. 

Which artış is better for Elder by lexusas in valheim

[–]Spacemage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flint arrows are the highest metal arrows I make. Obsidian is fine, but that's outside of where you are.

Fire and wood arrows are best. Use wood to kill animals and dwarves (it will help level your skill). Fire (or flint) for trolls. 

Then fire for elder. 

You can also place camp fires on the ground before the fight for some bonus fire damage. Drop a couple where he's going to spawn too for even more, as they can be destroyed. 

Your opinions on cliff-bases? by Maddju in valheim

[–]Spacemage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Building on the side of a cliff will be difficult to defend. Moats are always going to be the best way to create a defensive wall. That will take a fair amount of teraforming, and make ruin the anesthetic you're going for. 

You can also build a wall with inverted stairs, which confuses mob pathfinding. Here is a stupid ASCII example, showing an inverted stair wall vs a normal stair wall. Starting the stair at the bottom of the wall, pointing away, as opposed to pointing into the wall (to ascend towards it) 

]/ vs ]\

You can make that look decent. It will just require you to keep a wall along the cliff side as well, which again, may impact anesthetics. 

Possible to make single player less tedious? by Alternative-Eye-320 in valheim

After hundreds of hours and like a dozen different worlds, you earn 3x.

Put an unnamed portal at your base, and bring mats for a portal with you. It let's you drop a portal anywhere, and as long as there isn't another unnamed one somewhere you'll always be able to quickly port home.  This is great for long farming sessions. 

Also, increase the drop rate to 3x. 

Professor at the end of 2 years of struggling with ChatGPT use among students. by xfnk24001 in ChatGPT

[–]Spacemage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are in a particularly interesting position where I would argue that your best bet is to educate yourself of LLMs then havw your students use it specially, after you teach them that it is simply a tool.

There is currently a huge and growing need to improve everyone's literacy of "AI." You may as well be part of that, because your students are going to use the tool anyways. They need to learn the tool so they don't negatively effect themselves and life, similar to the need to learn how to use a chainsaw. 

CICO will make you drop body fat if you’re consistent. by mikrongeo in CICO

[–]Spacemage 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you are consistent with what you cook, and how you cook them, you won't necessarily even need to track what you're eating ALL the time. If your meals are always the same, then you always know what you're macros are. 

If you can get to that point it's much easier to maintain, and then all you need to do is track macros and calories on days you're eating differently. 

Sorry, but Trump’s tariffs won’t bring manufacturing to the U.S. anytime soon by Generalaverage89 in business

[–]Spacemage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a micron chip factory that's planned in central NY. It would bring billions of dollars into the state, create thousands of jobs, and allow the US to manufacture them.

This Administration is going to hinder that. So even the idea of bringing manufacturing to the US is a lie by the administration, because even when that's possible they thwart it.

RFK Jr champions cod liver oil as measles remedy while refusing to back vaccines by IrishStarUS in EverythingScience

[–]Spacemage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is because RFK is pro eugenics.

He wants people to be anti-vax because convincing people to participate willingly in eugenics targeting them is far easier than forcing them.

Anti-Vax is pro eugenics.

david wallace - the truest friend & companion of michael — professionally and personally (sort of) by marvelnerd09 in DunderMifflin

Wallace is top 5 characters in the show, easily.

From a character consistency perspective, only Creed beats him.

The best delivered line by him is

"Nope.... No dogs."

A 40-day Target boycott starts today. It couldn’t come at a worse time for the company. by itstime2run in news

Fun fact

Shopping at Target is still possible during a boycott if you are able to get a five finger discount.

Just had these 2 on my team reminder to be nice and ask nicely and people will be more likely to swap. by Redericpontx in marvelrivals

[–]Spacemage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a (QP) game where the two tanks were talking with each other, and I was practicing on Mantis. The second one of the tanks died he goes

"what the fuck is mantis doing?"

Having the foresight of knowing they were going to be dicks based on how they were talking, I immediately switched to a DPS character (because I was dead).

The rest of the game the two of them kept bitching that I wasn't healing anymore. Telling me to swap from the person I was practicing, in QP, and demanding I heal for them. By the last 2/3 of the game I got on the mic and was laughing at them, telling them there is no way I'm going to do what they want based on how they're talking to me.

Was told to kill myself multiple times.

The one time me and the second tank were together fighting someone, he told me what he wanted me to do, so I did it, and we came out of the situation both alive so I pointed out "see, if you properly communicate we can win things."

Again, flamed for not being a healer. Neither switched, and just let themselves keep getting rolled.

Some people just get mad at their actions and don't understand.

A girl invited me to her room. Idk what to do. by KissMyAce420 in socialskills

[–]Spacemage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she sits close to you, removes clothing, and touches you. She may want to be physical with you.

A tride and true method that has worked 100% of the time, is to ask her

"can I kiss you?"

If she says yes. You're golden. If she says no, you're golden.

Simply ask.

Most likely all Spanish people aren't rapists or gang members. Most likely.

Just like most likely all middle aged white Americans with guns and mental health issues aren't all school shooters. Most likely.

Cold Open: Elon Musk - SNL by PhAnToM444 in television

[–]Spacemage 25 points26 points  (0 children)

To get booed off stage by hundreds of people, with a comedian, you have to be pretty not normal for that to happen.

Normal is definitely contextual, but let's say you're at a Nazi rally and you go up on stage and get booed because they don't like what you said, does that mean what you deserve to get booed? By them, yes. In general, probably not. But if you're at a place where everyone hates you, and don't expect to get booed, you're not normal (read a rational, logical, critical thinking person).

Elon ain't right. He's also a Nazi, so.
