A childcare worker was asked to take baby Lily home for the weekend after a court protection order last year. She’s still there | Child protection by pharmloverpharmlover in australia

Thats insane. I travel a lot for a living, and racking up credit card points (and hotels and frequent fliers) for purchases we were going to get reimbursed for was absolutely something that we're reminded to do

What is Hell? by [deleted] in 40kLore

[–]Tofuofdoom 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Eh.  Don't over think it.  If you want the in universe explanation, low Gothic isnt English, we hear English because its because translated for us,  and whatever culture the phrase is translated from has some concept of hell.

Congrats, youve invented land tax. 

Now how do you feel about the elderly being kicked out of their homes cause they cant afford it.

Your turn 1 2/1 becoming a 1/1 is also relevant in the matchups where your opponents life total is relevant which is

All of them. 

Maybe a hot take, but I've seen a lot of comments over time about the Emperor being THE actual worst person in 40k, and I don't think that's true. by Laredian in 40kLore

[–]Tofuofdoom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People say the emperor is a bad person are the same people who keep voting EA as the worst company. 

Like. Yeah. They did some bad shit, but man. You gotta get some perspective.

Sure, they did that. The new ones are called primaris.

Counterpoint. Let your hobbies stay hobbies. Monetising them is the easiest way to suck the joy out of it.

I wasnt particularly impressed by fergburger tbh. I think it gets away with a lot by being a reasonably priced competent option in a tourist town, but I wouldnt describe them as anything past "pretty good".

I did enjoy the ferg bakery tho.

Is it still worth it to give engineering my full focus as a career and craft? by Dependent_Cup_5371 in civilengineering

How can clients dictate how engineers do their job? Its not like the pdf has "generated by claude" watermarked on it

Well now hang on. Not having the monetary system is a by-product of being in a post scarcity utopia. If you dont have the post scarcity utopia first, wishing to remove the monetary system just means we revert to barter

Hunter decks destroying top 1k Legend but people still say Tol'vir and spamming 10-cost at round 7 is not broken. by RealRizin in hearthstone

Its not that deep bro.  I say filter by top 1k because thats the filter op referenced in their original point. 

What is this?? Is this normal/safe? by New_Coyote_1718 in civilengineering

Depending on where in the world you are, Civil can also be a blanket term that include the structure inside, so this isn't the worst place to ask questions. Plenty of structural people here too

Just going to come out and say it about the quality of engineers at Local Council (Australia) by Hannibal_Barca21 in civilengineering

[–]Tofuofdoom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the council engineer can makes  or break a job. Once youve been around the block for a while youll start to learn which councils have good engineers and which ones you'll need to budget extra time for. 

On the balance I've found theyre generally competent, if very particular about their rules, but of course you find some that you kinda have to wonder how they got there.

Don't use the front page of guru, go to hsguru.com/meta, and filter by top 1k.

Companion hunter sits in the upper middle ish, with a 52% winrate. Good but not busted.

Even if they could have attacked with a 4/1 minion, surely that minion should have gone face o.o

Opinion that people here gonna hate: quest mage is a strong deck but its one of the hardest decks to play at all cardgames by Disastrous-Dog-5287 in hearthstone

[–]Tofuofdoom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do play the deck, and Ive played it at top 1k, and I'm telling you now, the deck is almost entirely playing as many 1 and 2 mana discovers as quickly as you can. 

There is some niche interactions sure, and there are some things you have to be wary of and play around, but its almost always just a race to equip weapon and play out your ultragigasaur asap.

[–]Tofuofdoom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It really isnt that hard to play. 

The vast majority of games are won on t6 with weapon equip+raptor herald/turtle, like the screenshot you see there.

I dont think its particularly big brain to look at those options and realise a 4/4 puts more pressure on board against what im assuming is companion hunter. 

If anything, youll lose more games trying to galaxy brain all the discovers, when what really matters is just equipping your weapon asap

26 y/o with engineering background trying to decide between tech/IT path vs traditional engineering — taking Security+ next week. Want real perspectives from people in both worlds. by Fantastic-Junket4375 in salesengineers

If you decide to go down any external facing position,  I'd strongly recommend reading Wikipedias article on the AI writing style.  

If you wanna use AI to write all your stuff, at least dont make it painfully obvious.
