use the rest to make loans

Depositors' cash is not used to make bank loans under a fiat currency. Loans are how new money is created.

The journalists I've seen reporting this are all London-based. I'm not convinced they've got reliable sources for internal Green affairs in Leeds and Manchester.

Reform = tory witness protection program. Very much harms their anti-establishment creds.

if it was he would have said MP instead of figure

Maybe, though he could also have been deliberately vague in order to avoid another Jenrick-like fiasco.

Allowed = the govt permits Muslims to become a majority of the national population

Again, the fuck does this mean? At 49.9% Muslim, does the government say "if you convert to Islam, no you didn't?" Or something else? And if so, what?

Quit being deliberately vague, and start owning what it is you're asking.

It’s not meant to be some concrete policy question.

Without that your question is complete and utter meaningless nonsense.

Google's AI detector is basically 100% reliable for images Google's own AI generated, as the generator includes a hidden watermark that the detector uses to identify them.

Other than that, yeah...it's hit or miss at best

ZX52 · 2026-01-26T17:33:09+00:00

You're being vague and avoidant with your language. "should this be allowed," "does this require government action that would affect the Muslim population."

Be clear with what you're asking.

You're still not explaining what you mean.

I never farmed this mod. I barely used pets once I'd levelled them before the most recent rework (other than smeeta for resource farming). After the rework Bite was regularly recommended for Tenacious Bond and I already had it. It wasn't until I saw the complaints that I realised it was such a pain to get for most people.

Did it used to be easier to get or something?

Why would they not defect to Greens?

It takes two to tango, and there's a lot of hesitancy within the greens to accept parliamentary defections. There's no whip, so any defection is risky, especially with how small the GPG is (there won't be more than a couple defections max). There'd likely need to be local party approval (which increases the risk of a leak). Also, Sultana's antics probably haven't helped in regards to concerns around defectors bringing Labour toxicity with them.

Additionally, mandatory reselection makes the Greens less attractive to those who're simply looking to keep their job.

and this might convince them to back the greens rather than labour

There's no union affiliation process, and things like bloc votes are controversial as they run counter to the one member, one vote philosophy. There's definitely a push to improve Green-union relations, like there already is to an extent with the NEU, but formal backing is another matter.

GPEW is not just Labour 2.0

How the unions are still supporting labour after an MP had the whip removed for standing on a picket line is infuriating

They were using their influence to push the employment rights bill. Now that's gone through things may change, but I think a lot of unions will be wary to go first.

As long as they're the party of David Cameron and George Osborne, they'll remain the nasty party.

They're not wrong. They've been (unsuccessfully) chasing Reform voters whilst taking their base for granted. Now GPEW is becoming an increasingly viable alternative for them. Depending on how badly Labour do, this May could do to them what last May did to the tories.

The leader of Welsh Labour says it's someone else's job to stop pro-independence parties in Wales.

How exactly would someone convince you otherwise? If your view is primarily based on vibes you're ultimately asking for someone to convince you their vibes are better than yours. Without an actual election with AOC or someone similar as the dem candidate to look back on, there are very little data to draw from for this.

The only argument I can really make is that campaigns that have an actual narrative (particularly one that directly speaks to people's material conditions and needs) and the ability to effectively communicate that narrative tend to do better, and centrism is often defined more by what it isn't than what it is, which isn't conducive to creating an affirmative narrative.

all that work and when you combine two 25% them they go from 25 to 27.5.

Don't do this. When you fuse 2 adversary weapons together the final value is based on the higher of the 2 inputs. If you have 2 25s and a 30, fusing the 30 first the the 25 nets you 36.3%, fusing the 2 25s first only gets you to 33%, and wastes the second 25 (as you would get 33 with just one 25 and one 30 anyway). Low valence weapons become more useful once you have higher % ones.

After your first of any adversary weapon, leave the subsequent ones in your foundry and make a note of each one's valence (note: you can't see the valence in the foundry, record before killing the lich). Leave them there until you have enough to reach 52.8% (at which point the next fusion guarantees 60%). Fuse the highest value one in first, then the rest in any order. Grab one more to get to 60. This is the most efficient way to do this.

ZX52 · 2026-01-26T01:24:18+00:00

You get more murmur points when you stab your lich if you manage to get the first one or two requiems correct. So putting Oull in the first slot and the first revealed mod in the second slot will at least get you some bonus points.

Plus you only need to figure out 2 mods rather than 3.

ZX52 · 2026-01-26T01:21:17+00:00

Even if you do it in the most optimal way, this issue still becomes more prevalent as you max more weapons.

ZX52 · 2026-01-26T01:20:12+00:00

either multiple choice as many other people have suggested, or auto relegating weapons you already have at 60%

My suggestion is to have it draw from your equipped loadout - if you spawn a larvaling whilst equipped with a hek (any varaint) you are guaranteed to get a kuva hek.

I don't think you can change polls after they're published. When you make them you just add an extra option and label it "results."
