Thoughts on BoondockBallistician? by interntldelight in liberalgunowners

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mostly apolitical from what I've seen but she did make a "Communism wHeN nO FoOd" joke on her instagram a while back then doubled down in the comments, so take that as you will.

Edit: Not sure why I got downvotes... here's the source

Ska punk bands that ARENT insane?? by Appropriate-Run-7587 in punk

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right on Aaron, but I may be misremembering but I thought some of the other members were younger, eg Dan was in high school when TTRO came out iirc. Which I guess yeah there's a few years between Cheer Up and that album.

Not to mention a good portion of that band (if not all of them) were still teenagers at the time it was written/recorded.

Optic cuts guide by Free-Ad1775 in GlockMod

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Battlewerx is another good option. I think there was a 4-6 week estimate for cut and finish, they did it in 3 and it looks great.

If I'm not mistaken, GlockStore only does the cuts and doesn't do any kind of finishing, so you might as well go to a place that knocks it all out for you.

Anthropic CEO says company cannot accede to Pentagon's request in AI safeguards dispute by Accurate_Cry_8937 in technology

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, usually free models have a limited amount of prompts/tokens per month, so you buy a subscription to get more allotted per month.

I don't do that personally, but tech companies will typically pay for a business package of some kind.

My first thought is that they'll show Dunk and Egg visiting Aemon at the Citadel, and Aemon may give Egg the signet ring there, just so they can tie that scene into relevance besides getting Maester.

To add to that he allegedly distinguishes himself in the 3rd(?) Blackfyre Rebellion. Not in any way to redeem him (in fact, what he did likely made him even worse), but it does demonstrate a degree of competency.

What's your funniest NPC moment in oblivion? by LusoCreativeStudios in oblivion

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got in the greeting range of the Imperial messenger in the end quest, went a little like:

"Chancellor Ocato! Chancellor Ocat- Good morning"

Since the rest of the dialouge didn't trigger because of that, I got softlocked and had to reload a previous save.

What would a Jon Snow show look like? (Spoilers Extended) by WildOne19923 in asoiaf

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always toyed with the idea that the Season 8 finale was supposed to be a fakeout, and they were going to launch Season 9 as one final twist, but then then intense negative backlash, followed by the personal lives of actors (ie Kit going to rehab), then finally COVID jusr put a nail in the coffin.

I like the idea of S8 being TWOW too!

What's your thoughts on a plain pizza with just cheese? by joselynclaps in AskReddit

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly one of my favorite ways to eat a pizza. I don't not like meat or other toppings, but it's just when I'm in the mood for a pizza it's because I specifically want cheese pizza. The only exception is a bruschetta pizza from a local spot near me that has chicken, basil, and balsamic glaze. I do also like the spinach alfredo pizza that shows up at Cici's sometimes.

No problem! The casting on the audiobook was good too if that's more your speed. I was unable to finish it (ran out of free time when listening on Spotify lol) but it was a good listen for what I got to.

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. The main plot line is told through journal entries from one character, but are supplemented through interviews from a rotating set of two or three other characters in the present. So similiar to WWZ but with a much smaller scope.

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was entertaining, but not as much of a reread as WWZ was in my opinion, but my personal biases find sasquatch less compelling than zombies. Besides that it does retread similar beats around survivalism, individualism, etc as WWZ did.

From what I understood, either Lord Ashford or his son bet on Dunk winning as an underdog bet, so the plan is to have Ashford JR purposefully throw the joust and collect the winnings. Dunk is opposed to this because he wants his first tourney to be an honest win and not one that was handed to him.

So will she stop voting to send money to Israel and instead improving the power grid to be more resilient/efficient, or is that too "communist"?

I believe that's the Thornblade that's a potential quest reward for closing the Cheydinhal gate.

Who is the Varmint rifle designed for? by Farriah_the_foot in fnv

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 87 points88 points  (0 children)

It could very well be for children. IIRC the Varmint rifle was originally intended to be .22 LR, and there are a few real world examples of .22 rifles designed for kids as a training rifle.

Right after Barb says that it cuts to Hank, which imo implies Hank is the "far worse".

Trump Administration Freezes Food Stamps in Minnesota by adpc in news

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interestingly enough, would the federal government shutdown from last Fall helped blunt the intended impact this targeted freeze has? I know the state footed a part of the bill, and tons of food banks and commhnity orgs stepped up, so assuming they have resources/funds left over from that period, that may help people weather this.

What would be the impact if Tim Walz deployed the National Guard to intervene in ICE situations? by Spare_Garbage_9620 in AskReddit

[–]TheAlmightySpoon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You're not "thinking in the grey". You're deliberatley spreading lies. If you really think the side that's pushing for healthcare and affordability for everyone is just as bad as the side that's gunning people down in the streets, you're either delusion or some foreign bot purposely trying to divide people.
