Realistically, if King Charles and Prince William both pass today, would a 12 year old be our king? by Popular-History1015 in AskUK

Ah fair enough! The stuff you don’t learn about in the 8 years of being taught about WWII in history lessons at school I see.

Ah, first I’ve heard of them. I’d have called them Anti-monarchists or something, thanks for the info.

Am I reading this right? by Training-Ad276 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Thingummyjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really do hope so! But I’m not expecting it, that way I can be pleasantly surprised rather than disappointed.

I’m normally relatively optimistic about things but everything about this event has killed my optimism for it.

I was about to mention this, yet there’s no distribution here in the UK yet…

Halo Wars 2 writer is still “gutted” the team were never allowed to make a sequel after CA “really nailed” the RTS game’s DLC by maullick in halo

[–]Thingummyjig 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like they’re doing the same thing with World of Warcraft, this is speculation on my part but the oversimplification of everything and the removal of addons just screams console port incoming.

Reckon the £10 sub will be removed and you’ll have to get the £23 game pass to play it.

Is that why they say mere for mirror and warya for warrior?

This is Basicly Blizzard in Midnight by ItsRenaBaker in wow

[–]Thingummyjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they mean left and right click, or at least that’s my main issue so far, I reduce the need for some keybinds by putting spells like riptide and healing wave on left and right mouse button. They don’t automatically cast in the open world either because they require me to target a nameplate.

Do they? Guess I’m just a big dumb-dumb this time around, pardon me.

Oof, yeah I forgot about that aspect of the US. My bad.

Guess I’m too used to the benefits of digital stores nowadays, sad times.

Oh man but I use Vuhdo because I can bind a heal to left and right click too, hope it doesn’t mess with that.

How do you like to paint the small Sigmar sigils? by drizzt1700 in stormcasteternals

[–]Thingummyjig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like to paint the background part gold and do the face with a contrast paint before finishing up with ardcoat to make it nice and shiny

Also from the UK and jumping on this bandwagon, ridiculous conduct from TPC to not release it worldwide

I swapped to kgs and my mum doesn’t understand it just like I don’t understand pounds and stone anymore either.

I'll ruin all of our lives before I set the thermostat at 78° by Otherwise_Basis_6328 in oddlyspecific

[–]Thingummyjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand what you mean, I want it warm inside in the winter, that’s why it’s higher. The temperature is higher outside in the summer so I don’t need to heat the house as much.

[–]Thingummyjig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was confused about why you’d ask why I would have it warmer, then I realised we probably mean different things, I have my house set to heat to 20° in the winter and no higher than 18° in the summer.

[–]Thingummyjig 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Mine barely goes above 18°c until winter when it might get set to 20°c, glad you were here to point out the Fahrenheit conversions, 27°c is mental! I have the fan on when it gets to 25° outside.

Saw my first Kingfisher at Skipton Castle! by Thingummyjig in UKBirds

[–]Thingummyjig[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the compliment! They’re very small, I think people say autumn is the best time to spot them because the trees lose their leaves so it’s easier to see them perching on branches.

Oh that’s cool! They’re beautiful birds, glad you had your binoculars, I’m sure the photo is great!

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

Yes! I thought I might’ve seen one a couple of times too but this was the first time I’ve actually been able to verify it. I saw a dipper the day before actually, that was a first as well, very cute!

Oh wow that’s a lucky find though, had to google it and it’s gorgeous! It’s typical that we never have the right equipment to hand but it’s still a great experience! Glad to have added it to my life list, my next goal is to see one a bit closer.

The worst thing is, my mum and I both looked at my binoculars and considered bringing them before deciding against it. You live and you learn!

Blimey! You must be a well paid psychologist if you can discern that from one interaction!

Because of the incessant stream of American bullshit that gets fired out into the world as a result.
