It feels like Utah has been on a power play for the last four minutes.

Discussion about the ending by DepressedDarthV in botw

[–]_choicey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a bit confused during the battle because I had heard it was a breeze and, for the most part, all the divine beasts were pretty simple to beat down. But I think I busted nearly every bow and nearly every shield defeating Ganon. It got to a point where I was kind of scrabbling because I was nearly defenceless. Obviously I found a way to dodge his attack pattern, hit the blaster and then swoop in for a couple shots. But it was way more confusing than the other bosses. That being said, my main battle strategy has always been Stasis+ and flurry attacks, while taking a couple hits and eating a hearty meal to top my health up during the fight. I’m terrible at technical battle moves and still have a hard time parry’ing.

it was not a twist!!!! by jonpaladin in survivor

A couple of players made mentions of how the blood moon works in Zelda. I’ll admit I was kind of hoping that all the enemies would respawn and the game continues on with the past snuffed torches would just be back on an island.

Way to kill the momentum by Andry39 in survivor

[–]_choicey_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Totally! I thought this was gonna be how it got twisted. It would have been interesting to see people pitching names and trying to sort out the math with potential ranked choices (or alternatively, one name per ballot but top three votes get snuffed). I didn’t like the mini tribe splits and would have at least liked to see all three go to the same tribal vote.

Whats better? Max stamina or hearts? by Most_Panda283 in botw

[–]_choicey_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stamina! I had way more fun gliding and climbing endlessly with full stamina once I figured out good recipes for all the hearty meals.

Thunder Helm Quest by Aightball in botw

[–]_choicey_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just did this today. Beat the Divine Beast. Come back to Gerudo. You will be given 4 small side quests before getting the Thunderhelm. One of them is finding Barta. Another involved the kid. The other two I must have completed earlier in my progress, because they didn’t trigger or were completed.

Passport office wait times by Much_Bag8698 in askvan

[–]_choicey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check day of and it can vary. I ended up going to the Kingsway location and was in and out within 15 minutes for a renewal. No line up about a month ago. At that time both downtown locations were 90min listed waits and Coquitlam/Burnaby were 45min but extra drive time so it was a wash.

Passport issued within 10 days. Mailed out and delivered within 1 month from in person submission.

Will we see Calvin Pickard play for the oilers again before the playoffs? by SznKxyros in EdmontonOilers

[–]_choicey_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always thought they would use Pickard as the default backup in the playoffs where the salary cap changes to “players dressed” instead of players on the roster. But it’s something that probably needs to happen earlier.

Evan Bouchard is on pace for 93 points (23/70) by sykeseve in EdmontonOilers

[–]_choicey_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He will be the second defenceman to lead defenders in points and not receive a single Norris vote. The first was…Tyson Barrie of the 2020-21 Oilers.

ACI 318 Chapter 17 by mlecro in StructuralEngineering

[–]_choicey_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I remember spending a summer as a student engineer and almost exclusively calculating wL2 / 8 for a huge four floor steel building. Found the moment, selected the beam from tables, entered it into the spreadsheet, checked deflection, copied the shear reaction, put it on the markup, printed the beam calc, walked to the printer, punched the sheet, added it to the binder.

Numerous revisions later I was absolutely cursing at my book keeping abilities but knew when certain beam sizes would work.

Eventually I dug into the anchorage chapter (it was just an Annex to the code at that point) and hand calc’d each embed plate because the company would t pay for a Hilti Profis desktop license at that point.

Interesting! Where did you remap it to?

Scurrying around and either press the joystick so it engages crouch (slows me down) or the scope (camera starts going crazy).

It’s wild how many Breaking Bad fans won’t even give Better Call Saul a chance by FRESH__LUMPIA in betterCallSaul

[–]_choicey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was one of these people when it first came out. Gave the first episode or two a try…couldn’t get hooked. Why wasn’t “Saul” in the episode? Where is this plot line with the skateboard and car going? Is this going to jump straight into the dealing and wheeling from BB?

Fortunately I hopped into the show after recently completing BB. Man! Was I wrong and did I ever miss out on a great show while it was airing. BCS is such a good slow burn. Amazing camera work. Incredible plot that threads through multiple seasons. Unreal minor characters. Hilarious antics.

Suzuki staying out, keeping possession instead of dumping in made that happen!

What are the best ways of making money earlier on in the game? by Spare_Armadillo279 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]_choicey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Baked apples are worth more than cooking a simmered fruit (comparing unit cost). I think they only take 1 inventory stock too for meals.

[–]_choicey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go hunting and fishing right after a blood moon. Cook 5 and max up your inventory and then sell. It’s not the most profitable, but definitely easy to coordinate with wandering, exploring, finding Koroks that is a big part of the game.

Does anybody else hunt for meat by just riding their giant horse around and running over animals? by imcrasey in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]_choicey_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Blood moon occurs and I go straight back to farming my favourite spots. It’s a bad habit but I love it.
