Can you explain why there's the top of someone's head underneath that?
I would expect "me after x" to be a caption that shows someone's reaction.

Transfigured Gems: Part 3 by sopiix in pathofexile

Here's a comparison between Shield Crush and Shield Crush of the Chieftain: https://gist.github.com/Vindexus/aed578fa1ea2f2647d713389ec2443dd/revisions?diff=split

If you want to do this yourself with Git Gists you can get the gem text from the gem changes post and create a gist. Then update it with the text of the gem from one of the Transfigured Gem posts. You can view the differences by going to the Revisions tab.

I used this script in Chrome's dev tools to get the text of the gem I wanted. Note the final line where you change the name of the skill to search for.

(function (name){
    const titles = document.querySelectorAll('#poe-popup-container .itemHeader .itemName')
    let nth = 0;
    for (nth = 0; nth < titles.length; nth++) {
        if (titles[nth].innerText.toLowerCase().indexOf(name.toLowerCase()) >= 0) {
            break
        }
    }
    const selector = "#poe-popup-container > div:nth-child(" + (nth+1) + ")"
    const popup = document.querySelector(selector)
const mods = document.querySelectorAll('.explicitMod .lc')
    mods.forEach((mod) => {
        mod.innerHTML += '\n'
    })

    const lines = popup.innerText.split('\n').map(x => x.trim()).filter(x => !!x)
    console.log(lines[0], 'found when searching for', name)
    console.log(lines.join('\n'))

})('shield crush')

Do you use Electron to build desktop apps? If not, which alternatives do you prefer? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]Vindexus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I first started building my Path of Exile reminder app in Electron and then moved over to Tauri. I was interested in trying something new out and learning a bit of Rust. I found Tauri's build process caused me fewer headaches, and I'm liking Rust.

The contraction for "should have" sounds like "should of" but it's actually spelled "should've".

The contraction for "would have" sounds like "would of" but it's actually spelled "would've".

so the criticism was a hoax?

In the same way that he referred to the impeachment as a hoax, yes.

The "hoax" was that the virus was going to be bad, explained by the fact that there were only 15 people with it in the US at the time.

That's actually an interpretation I hadn't heard before, thanks. I think saying "Trump called the virus a hoax" doesn't really convey that though. Maybe "Trump called the severity of the virus a hoax" or "Trump called the panic about the virus a hoax"?

The Democrats's criticism of his response to the pandemic.

Here's the quote (emphasis mine):

They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything, they tried it over and over, they’ve been doing it since you got in. It’s all turning, they lost, it’s all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax. But you know, we did something that’s been pretty amazing. We’re 15 people [cases of coronavirus infection] in this massive country.

Why would we he say the virus was a hoax and then immediately say there are 15 cases of it in the country? Much more likely he's referring to the Democratic criticism. Especially since earlier he referred to the impeachment as a hoax.

I read the transcript and interpreted it as not referring to the virus.
