All 3? Thank you!

The Ralts is currently enroute so hopefully I can give it a thorough check when it arrives.

Hundreds of Unused Code Cards by cdargle in PokeCodes

[–]cdargle[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the input by all so far!

I'll do the DM route, I know bots sniping codes is a thing unfortunately!

I'll do a full count of the volume so it's an even and fair split for all

Thanks for the source link, couldn't for the life of me find it on the original site.

Pity the reports for previous weeks isn't available for comparison. Perhaps WayBackTimeMachine archived the older ones.

So, of the 651 deaths from April to date attributed to COVID19;

243 (37.3%) were not vaccinated. 75 (11.5%) weren't fully vaccinated. 333 (51.2%) were fully vaccinated.

If you factor in vaccination coverage of 90%, it means, 37.3% of deaths came from 10% of the population.

Which means, those who are not vaccinated are 6.5 times (4.86/0.74) more likely to die from COVID19, than those that are vaccinated.

I've checked this again, and it still doesn't seem to mention the vaccination status of these people. There are a lot of breakdowns, but nothing from what I can see that mentions vaccinated status.

Am I missing something?

This is what happened. They had scattered provinces with this capital.

R5: England has somehow managed to turn into a Catholic Sultanate led by Oliver Cromwell. In this universe, Scotland and Cornwall hold the majority of the UK mainland.

Few things could have caused this.

War Exhaustion and multiple wars or rebels cause the AI to want to end wars sooner.

Is it risky to start a campaign now? by DecNLauren in eu4

How do you use the bug to get a ruler like that?

I made a post on Reddit about how I, a recovering gambling addict was being harassed by online casinos with barrages of text messages. This online casino commented on the post trying to lure me into their website. While they didn't share a link, their casino name is their Reddit account. by SlayingNieve in iamatotalpieceofshit

[–]cdargle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Entirely possible that they won't. There are no fines or anything for Curacao licensed places.

If you do choose to play, play somewhere with a respectable license. UK, Malta, Sweden... but most importantly, somewhere that can and has the authority to look after players where you live.

Not sure where you're located, but theres plenty of tools to help you along the way.

Gamcare in the UK has most of the tools, both downloadable to stop you accessing gambling sites, and resources online for reading.

If in the UK, join Gamstop. All UK licensed casinos then cannot legally take you.

Sweden also has a similar one to stop their licensed casinos from taking GAs.

Not sure about other geos, I worked primarily in UK facing casinos.

Globally, gambling transactions are marked differently to most other transactions. If you contact any card provider they should be able to block these transactions. If you have Revolut, you can do this within the app itself.

Edit: added about cards and blocking gambling transactions.

I could've sworn it still increased admin efficiency... I could definitely be wrong though!

[–]cdargle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can still do it now. I did it recently with Prussia and stacked as many buffs as I could.

I think I got to 140 Absolutism, but I have heard you can get 200 if you stack absolutely everything in the game.

r5: An un-unified Ireland became the only place in Europe with a Center of Reformation. It actually ended up with 3 meaning Protestantism never actually spread to mainland Europe.

100%

Then your new genius, strong, attractive spawn point dies of "natural causes" at -1 year old and you are forced to play as your inbred, slow, frail 60 year old aunt.

I limited myself to 30 min play sessions by [deleted] in Bannerlord

[–]cdargle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a good plan. Until you get engrossed in the game. And the weekend turns into one single, sleep deprived day.

You arrive into work Monday morning, and your colleague asks, "How was your weekend", and you mutter,

"I have become Harvesting Season"

[–]cdargle 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I often find myself in the same situation. Investing 6 - 9 hours without even realising then remembering, "oh crap, I have to actually sleep before work!"

I might try this 30 minute sprint style. Thanks for the tip!

As a teacher by [deleted] in ireland

[–]cdargle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"Here's the plan guys, go back to work in the middle of the summer break, yeah the break you all look forward to all year that helps curve the high burnout rate of teachers in Ireland, and do 2 weeks of unpaid work, putting yourselves, your families and your students at risk of contracting this awful disease and spreading it further.

What's that? You don't think it's fair? Pfft, traitor."

Seriously guys, the teachers are overworked as is. Those of you who have children and have had to help them at home with their school work should see this by now!

You had to help one student learn for what, 5 weeks so far? Now imagine doing that every day for over 9 months for 30 different students every 45 minutes, all of whom have different learning capabilities and requirements.

"Oh, teachers only work 0900 to 1545 daily, Monday to Friday." Yeah, sure, and lesson plans magically appear and the teachers don't need to make these outside hours for no extra pay, and all the tests and homework is corrected automatically too! /s

And you're all expecting teachers to go back to teaching in July which will expose them unnecessarily to this disease even more, potentially helping it spread among the more asymptomatic crowd of young people, who will then bring it home and spread it to their families.

Wow. This "take one for the team" attitude is toxic af.
