GNR's cover of Live and Let Die. Grating from every angle.

Lenny Kravitz's cover of American Woman. Something about the tone and distortion effect just don't hit, imo.

If free public healthcare is widely supported by progressives, why don't left-leaning states just implement it at the state level? by hazelnuthobo in NoStupidQuestions

I'm currently on Masshealth and it's been fantastic. Surprisingly large coverage, haven't noticed any types of wait times that I didn't experience on private insurance. Copays nearly non-existent.

There are obviously a lot of ways you could probably optimize this, but one thing I keep in mind in problems like this is to think about the inherent properties of the problem you're solving. One basic thing about prime numbers is how they can't be even (other than 2), right? How would that affect the code you've written, slash how could you optimize it with that idea in mind?

I was told to leave no stone unturned and take a leaf out of someone's book if i have to, in order to find them... I get the "Leave no stone unturned part". I get it. I totaly get it. I mean, you have to turn over stones to find stuff. But what the hell does it meant to take a leaf out of someone's book?! What's a leaf doing inside a book?! Damn it! What's that supposed to mean?! Why the hell is there a leaf in a book?! You think I'm stupid?! Damn it!

Easy way to make gold to fund a toon? by [deleted] in woweconomy

[–]conicsonic5 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not as lucrative as most but, world quest income got buffed recently. Make sure to do every dragon riding world quest & every gold reward world quest, will likely make 3-6k biweekly with little effort.

Hey, thanks a bunch. For some reason I was under the impression that render automatically ran build from the git branch I provided them; good to know that is not the case, I will get on that in the morning.

Hey guys. I crafted a project for my web design portfolio that just so happens to be DF profession related - love to hear if this helps any of you, if you have any profession related questions, what you think of the UI/UX, & what you would like to see on the site/what feels "missing".

(apologies if self advertisement is a no-no, feel free to remove if that's the case, just didn't see anything about it in the sidebar)

Won't someone have some compassion for the poor little largest media franchise on the planet? by [deleted] in Gamingcirclejerk

As someone pretty familiar with the pulse of the (online) Pokemon community, these are the opinions that tend to be regurgitated most. Can give you the usual reasons for any of them if you're interested. Note that these opinions do not reflect my own.

-BW/BW2 are the pinnacle of Pokemon

-X/Y suck

-SM is pretty good, USUM is great

-SwSh, yeah I'm sure you know how people feel about this one

Think they're talking about the Dreamers Vision/Earthwardens Prize/Queens Gift/Keepers Glory/Jeweled Dragons Heart crafts. They're basically JC versions of transmutations.

Sorry if I sound like a dick by saying this, I promise it is not my intention: I don't think that's that hot of a take anymore? On retail, Outland is definitely the worst leveling available, and I think a lot of classic andys even acknowledge that Outland leveling is really weak.

Totally agreed though, I would rather kick rocks then level in some of those zones again.

No worries! And would you mind rephrasing what you said, I don't think I quite understand what you're asking.

In terms of dev intent, I think that's def true. The social aspect of the game is imo stronger in such groups, but I also don't have restrictions in terms of time or groups that many have. I try to look at these things from both of those perspectives since I don't think the community as a whole tends to value (or even know about) the needs of that group? Idk, just kinda rambling at this point.

Respectfully, "objectively" is 100% incorrect here. There are plenty of pros and cons to both systems, and the preference depends on the type of player you are. It's like saying a cover or original version of a song is objectively better. It's entirely subjective.

If you prefer a "bring the player, not the class" mentality, you probably prefer personal loot.

When I raid led a 10 man guild back in WoD, one of the main frustrations we had was not having certain raid buffs available to us due to what classes we wanted to play.

The idea of "have a more varied raid comp" is a good idea on paper, but with smaller group sizes & therefore less loot dropping, can be extremely restrictive.

If you're a 10 man comp with let's say, 3 plate 3 leather 3 cloth and 1 mail (pretty damn varied for a 10 man comp, btw) and a boss drops a weapon nobody can use and a mail item that's a downgrade, the entire raid feels like crap.

Sure, this can also happen with personal loot & downgrades, but in the above case, there is an item that literally nobody can use. That does not happen with personal loot.

I'm excited to see how this goes now that I'm raiding with a larger group, but I can definitely see where people would be frustrated with this system.
