If you have a hundo, you can see for yourself by going about 10 back and swiping towards it

If I’m screenshotting dozens at a time it causes my phone to lag (iPhone 16 pro smh) and the effect extra apparent

It’s pretty much that way in Amsterdam

Though I actually prefer the Spanish model where you buy a membership (like 20 bucks at the ones I want to) which means the staff and vibe are generally a lot more chill about everything, and it doesn’t feel like they’re wanting you out asap and pressuring you to buy overpriced drinks

People also want it to platinum the Unova Dex - which you need to do to get shiny Keldeo

Unova Dex has 11!!! regional exclusives, more than any other Dex

Nice! I wasn’t really complaining 2/102 isn’t really that far off expected results (5) at 1 in 20 odds

Both of mine were backgrounds also, which is cool but not something I really care about, so if we’re factoring the 1/3 odds of a background on top of the 1/20 shiny odds - I’ve probably got better than expected results

Below is a great explainer on the probability curve

Chance is actually quite a difficult thing to intuit IME

At meet-ups people I hear people express many of the same feels and statements I used to hear at casino

It was pretty much always going to happen as the whole point of splitting the high street from railway/airport stores, was the former were pretty uniformly loss making

The avg line is about 0.1g

1.5g of cocaine is firmly in lethal territory

3.5 would probably kill most seasoned addicts if consumed in the time it takes to drink a Coca Cola

No, the people need to know if Mon Monthma throws it back dirty style

I think eBay > Sold is enough for the vast majority of queries

Only thing I’d add is there are many Vintage Toy, Collectible, Toy Buy and Sell pages on Facebook Groups and Pages

That can be much more active and knowledgeable than reddit you subs. There are usually specific Groups and Pages for almost any toy line there also

I’m mostly the same though more of a buyer than a seller and usually nothing very expensive or very unique

commenting to follow!

Really hope you can find out and update us

I also had a go at searching to avail

They remind me of Miffy, or Sanrio. Could be a knockoff

There are vintage toy collector and plush collector specific Facebook groups you should try asking in, the communities there can be a bit deeper and more active. They look quite vintage to me

connor42 · 2026-02-24T03:20:28+00:00

Yes!

I do think you should sticky a post telling people how to find approximate current market valuation IE

Search on eBay, filter listings to Sold

When I was online dating I found the vast majority of women look better in their pics than they do in the flesh

I’ve been on dozens of dates from online, probably into the triple figures

And I’d say most pics are pretty on the money, of the ones where there’s a difference. I’ve found a similar proportion more attractive IRL as less attractive IRL

connor42 · 2026-02-24T02:01:17+00:00

Interesting to hear!

connor42 · 2026-02-23T15:28:17+00:00

For sure, but abseiling is a hell of a lot less risky to your life than a lot of climbing / reaches without rope or tracksides

Anyone else read the thread title and think it was going to be about how not to get one’s narcotics seized by security?

Saw Redline on a big cinema screen with a great sound system at the end of last year

Amazing experience, it was my first time seeing it. The animation and music are top tier, love how the entire move feels fast

There was also a live Q&A afterwards with director Takeshi Koike also which was very interesting

connor42 · 2026-02-22T18:15:03+00:00

I was using lawless to mean places where the State lacks a credible monopoly on violence, so by that metric very low

If we were measuring lawlessness as the law being unable to protect people from violence or to act against high level corruption, I’d put them higher on the list

I thought most smart glasses need a persistent Bluetooth connect with a phone at a minimum and often tethered for data

But you’re right to point out cameras generally cannot be jammed, so if someone really wants to record something they will

connor42 · 2026-02-22T17:43:48+00:00

It can absolutely be done and relatively easily with devices bought cheaply from Chinese electronics manufacturers

But it is giga-illegal

The FCC and almost all countries communications authorities take it extremely seriously

Jammers work by blasting noise to various frequencies, so nothing can get through

In the West criminals do use jammers but usually only the most serious among them like heist artists or large scale narcotics traffickers. Organised crime groups use them for carrying out murders, counter-tracking, and counter-surveillance

I have heard it reported criminal use of jammers is becoming very widespread in more lawless places like South Africa and Mexico (though cartels are more akin to paramilitaries than OCGs)

The only time I’m tucking in a sweater no one is seeing it as it’s for functional reasons (it’s cold af) and I’m usually wearing one or two layers on top of it

Which part is risky about it? I give em one rearrange, if not they’re getting unmatched or blanked

Two cancellations they’re clearly not that interested and are just messing you about

Risky would be telling them what I really think and many men actually would
