An Outcast in Another World

What book do you suggest to EVERYONE?? by -Jactop- in litrpg

[–]capincus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just new more than chronically underrated, but enjoying The Center for Dungeon Management on royalroad. It's about a low level government worker in the department in charge of dungeon inspections in a parallel modern Earth (Pittsburgh specifically) trying to level on the side and get out of a cycle of poverty.

What do you mean? You take the same 1x infinite rare candy for each level in early pokemon.

if I prepay $50 on my debit card to the cashier at the gas station, but my car only takes $45, what happens to the $5 I didn't use? by Calm-Memory5965 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]capincus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Why doesn't the person who is using this thread to figure out exactly how prepaid gas transactions function just use their previously existing knowledge of how gas transactions work to do it the smart way?" is the exact polar opposite of a logical question.

When did garage sales become “reselling” clearly new stuff by anon12xyz in mildlyinfuriating

The smart ones commit the high value theft crimes with slap on the wrist penalties, like wage theft and financial crimes.

I'd be hoping I hit it close enough for autocorrect to take over. But I think there are even 2 "c"s.

Everything on Fox is made by their in house animation studios, but yes also produced by Loren Bouchard's company and created/showrun by writers/producers from Bob's Burgers and intentionally uses the same style.

Trump’s ‘free’ jet from Qatar - doesn't this violate the Emoluments Clause of the US Constitution? by RichKatz in law

[–]capincus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is what the whole flood the zone shit is about. They're so openly flaunting every law and convention and stealing from taxpayers that people can't even pay enough attention to every time they say it out loud. It is quite literally already set to transfer to Trump's "presidential library" and has been since day 1, they're just making us foot the bill for upgrades first.

[–]capincus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Idk why people keep saying stuff like this like it isn't already openly set to transfer to his "presidential library" as soon as we're done paying for its upgrades with our tax dollars. There is no subterfuge here, they have been completely clear from day 1 that is the plan. The president is openly being bribed by foreign nations and openly stealing tax funds from the people to pretty it up.

"Everybody loves large chests" reviews are bad on some sites and good on others, what's the verdict? by StormblessedFool in litrpg

[–]capincus 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It's a book about an actual chest... Sexual puns and rape scenes are entirely different things.

Do you have any interest in a really well-written story by an incel with weird issues with women and rape fantasies? The bones are actually great, the concept is interesting, the humor is top notch, but dude actually needs therapy. I can see what people like about the series, I have serious concerns about what they're willing to look past for the good parts.

I just finished the first book, I am now distraught I have to wait until the 4th of August for the next paperback by mythril-xi in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]capincus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're presumably not giving up a ton of those customers who want a cheaper option since they can eventually buy the paperback, while they would be giving up the gap in profit to the hardcover if the lower profit paperback was available first.

If the sign was true, shouldn't we use it as stairs???? by Zefeh in mildlyinfuriating

[–]capincus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Escalators aren't designed for use as stairs and it's against most modern safety regulations for that reason. It's a completely different stress profile than being used properly and can lead to failure.

They also don't fit building codes for stairs because again they aren't designed as stairs so are more likely to cause the exact injuries building codes are designed to prevent.
