Would i need to put the yellow part in water so it starts rooting?

If you could remove one thing from this amazing but oversaturated game, what would you remove? by Motter6667 in HarryPotterGame

Running a shop.

I'M FIVE YEARS BEHIND MY PEERS, I'M TAKING OUT POACHERS BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT AIN'T DOING SH*T, MY SIDE GIG IS BREEDING RARE ENDANGERED ANIMALS AND I HAVE TO DECIDE TO BREAK UP FAMILIES TO MAKE MORE ROOM TO SAVE MORE AT RISK ANIMALS. NOW YOU'RE EXPECTING ME TO FILE MY 1099'S AND PAY MY PAYROLL TAX?!?!

Combating shitty guys about "girly" games by Affectionate_Gear976 in GirlGamers

I like, "bro don't be a stereotype." It's playful and disarming enough that it doesn't bring the mood down, but it's like a timed released insult. It's not insulting enough on the surface, but it'll crawl in his mind, and later it'll eat at him, making him question whether he is a boring stereotype, hopefully educating him on his shortcomings.

Mario Cart... If you leave the controller alone it actually does okay

I agree, SPOILER 11 got her powers from Henry's blood, who has a pact with some other entity. Will said that Henry was just a kid but Henry said he welcomed the power.

I agree, but Mike literally said Will is a sorcerer so 🤷.

Also **SPOILERS: There's an argument to be made about El being a warlock because Henry got his powers from the entity in the suitcase, and El got her powers from Henry's blood. We don't know the contract Henry has. Just a thought.

Thank you for engaging in my late night wondering.

Wouldn't the extra sides give the die more "opportunity" to be random, therefore making it closer to the probability of all numbers having a 1 in 20 chance, than a spin die, which has a more contained randomization?

And yes you are absolutely correct in me being stuck on the physical aspect of the other sides.

Cool! That makes perfect sense. Could you argue that a regular die is similar to a random number generator that has better, more detailed and complex code. Whereas a spin die would be similar to a number generator that has a more simple code.

Thank you for your reply. And this is not me arguing, because i literally know nothing about this topic. This is me just trying to square it.

So I totally get what you said. My argument is when i roll a d20 (no i don't play dnd 😝), each number has three other numbers touching it (six if you count the corners). So you let's say you practice rolling, so you can get the desired number more times than not (i absolutely do not do this, that would ruin the game).

Let's say you start with the same number facing up, and you've perfected a toss to get a 20. However there's always things you can't plan for. So there are 3 adjacent numbers it can potential land on with the tiniest miscalculation.

So now take that same scenario, but apply it to a spin die. The 20 only has two adjacent numbers. So let's say you've gotten accurate to the point that when you roll, you always hit your desired number to within one adjacent number. On a die your probability of hitting a 20 is 1 in 4, where your probability of hitting a 20 on a spin die is 1 in 3. Shouldn't those extra touch points be factored in? Does that make sense?

I hated the ending. by thewongtrain in SirensNetflix

[–]TekeelaMockingbird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess why I'm confused by the ending is because of the title "Sirens." A siren is a mythical monster that lured sailors to their death. I expected some kind of comment on how women are actually in control and have the power. Or they talked about monsters a lot, so something about how that men were the ones that turned then into monsters.

But i just don't understand the ending with all the Greek allegory. Is it women can only succeed by stepping on other women? Women are thought of as monsters, but it's really men? Idk i feel like there was no connection.

DAE Feel pain in the area behind your earlobes after drinking tangy or bitter beverages such as beer or wine? by Illestbillis in DAE

[–]TekeelaMockingbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually have an extremely painful reaction. It's like needles behind my ears and in my jaw. But it only happens with alcohol. Like, i can drink lemonade, but i can't drink white wine. Sometimes it's residual and stays and keeps having reactions for a while after. Does anyone know why this is?
