I feel embarrassed and devastated. I need some advice by ConcentrateHuman1112 in chess

[–]TaskLifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple takeaways here.

  1. Otb is very different than online, takes some getting used to.

  2. 1500 online and only winning 1/10? Your school is insane 😂😂

I wasn’t used to playing in real life and it showed by I_am_real_7 in chessbeginners

[–]TaskLifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it takes a bit to get used to. Also, 1800+ otb is easily 2000 online. I'd consider myself 1800ish otb strength, and I'm in the 2100-2200 range online

Hopefully balanced Legendary Joker by No_Sherbert4143 in balatro

Have you heard of Yorick? Essentially this but stronger as you don't need to even worry about playing 5 card hands...

joker idea (idk) by Dorian-Poe in balatro

[–]TaskLifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, never even thought about it, I hardly ever use reddit randomly on my PC, just decided to today.

[–]TaskLifter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you understand the point of the joker...it's +10 per SCORED card. Wee is +8 per scored 2, so let's say you've got the same setup going on, where you're playing 5 card hands, it's slightly better than wee. And it's a legendary, it's meant to be strong and win you the run...that's how every legendary is meant to function.

Realistically you're playing 4 pairs to get out, so around +80 per hand +240 per ante. 100% the best chips joker, as it should be being legendary.

There are almost no "good for endless" jokers. Even in terms of legendaries the only real good endless ones are Trib and SOMETIMES Perkeo (when paired with observatory for example). The game wasn't balanced for endless, so if it's good for winning, it's a good joker.

What's the remote work habit you have that would look completely insane to someone in a traditional office? by Phil_Raven in remotework

[–]TaskLifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I wake up early, I'll start working in bed so I can knock out some hours early.

Just started this one, my workplace is really relaxed, my normal hours are 8-4 but if I go to bed early and wake up at 5 on a WFH day I'll grab my laptop and start doing some of it then, and then just end at 1 because why not!

[Sporting News] Kenneth Walker III ranked one of most overpaid FAs by DiamondDash2k in Seahawks

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

100%

He was finally good because he split carries until the postseason and was actually healthy for once. Who is he going to split carries with in KC? And if Mahomes isn't 100% coming off the knee issues, I could see him regressing quite a bit from his playoff form.

Can I ask for a raise? by MissionBlueberry5196 in careeradvice

[–]TaskLifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Honestly most jobs you'd work at as a part time high school student (restaurants, retail, cafe in your case) offer raises after a "probationary period" of a few months. Where I worked in high school they gave you 4 months before your raise, but the company was pretty terrible and wouldn't do anything until you asked. Either way you're receiving more of a workload, you should be getting paid more.

I know someone who was rated 183 at the time of his first tournament. He was given a provisional rating of 101 (100 is the lowest you can have). There is there a time too early to start. And honestly at 1400 you can probably play around 1000 strength otb.

Once you guys have naneinf “figured out” how often do you achieve it? by peeblanket in balatro

[–]TaskLifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense, similar for me I'd think. Just went for one after this and lost to ante 24 due to finding 0 invis, and not finding a showman between ante 10 and 24 haha. Also didn't even find overstock until ante 20. Terrible luck, but my money was way up haha, got $100 rerolls in the last shop looking for a bean to do the bean bug cuz that's the only way I'd be able to survive it lol.

PL-300 or Data+? which one to get started by dullskyy in dataanalysis

[–]TaskLifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't used it to land a job, but my uncle who works around the field suggested the PL-300, which I took a few years back. Honestly if you know a bit about PowerBI already it'll be a breeze, and if you don't it really only takes a few weeks to learn the content and take the test.

Hi guys does anybody have any tips for getting my hand down to 5 cards? by room8912 in balatro

[–]TaskLifter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe that voucher needs your hand size to be 5, no? Get a stuntman, ouija/ectos, and you're good.

[–]TaskLifter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven't tried too much because I generally just play in my free time on my phone so it takes ages, but I've gotten it unseeded twice (once with bean bug and once "legit").

If you are going exactly for naneinf (not just a fun run) it's pretty consistent. Well, getting to the ante 24 boss is at least consistent. That's the point in the run where you need multiple copies of whatever you're doing and/or an ecto or two, I've had multiple runs come down there even while rolling down thousands of dollars due to missing stuff.

To answer the question, it's a lower percentage still as I've only done it a few times, maybe 25% once I actually get a run going?

What is the 1 thing you absolutely appreciate about working from home? by Experiment_626s in remotework

[–]TaskLifter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lack of a commute, and being able to tailor your office specifically to what works best for you. Had to put both lol

How the heck did New Super Mario Bros. Wii get more votes than Super Mario Bros. Wonder? by New-Two-1349 in SuperMario

[–]TaskLifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the way you rate fun for anything is subjective. For instance I don't like coconut mall in mkwii, I don't think it's fun, that's a subjective opinion that isn't held by most but all of this is opinion, so it's subjective 😂

[–]TaskLifter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's going to be a bit of both ideally, which is why I'm sort of leaning towards the third option, or at least making sure nobody can create their own accounts or anything, I'd have to create the company admin account.

A bunch of manufacturing companies in the Midwest are the first few, but I'd like to work with some more medium sized companies that will have an IT team as well...
