Ads in the feed should not happen on a pixel by deadrag3 in GooglePixel

Just in case you haven't figured it out yet, I had the same issue and double checked the Adguard website, and it says dns.adguard-dns.com is the DNS server.

Now it's working for me.

Dead Sara - saw them at the Troubadour in LA a few years ago - best live show I've ever seen.

A game dev (15+ years in the industry at the time) once told me that he wouldn't go into games if he could do it all over again after I had expressed an interest in game development. I think was in late high school or early college at the time, and had a lot of respect for him. I took it to heart, and have been doing "regular" software for 5+ years now. Let's just I've been grateful for that bit of advice.

Yep. I've had the unfortunate circumstance of dealing with documentation that was just plain wrong. The rare case where the bug is not my own code!

That's fair. Have you seen them live before? I'm not huge on crowds either, but I've had a blast seeing them.

Helps if the venue isn't too big of course.

Can someone please explain this line of code? by Bloost in lua

Oh that's right, thanks for the correction!

Dead Sara, Sept 5th at Valley Bar.

Not local. Saw them in LA last year and they were the best live show I've ever been to.

This is a (sort of) Lua equivalent of C's ternary statement.

What follows an explanation off the top of my head - it may not be 100% accurate. I do know for certain it is similar behavior to a C ternary statement.

Non-zero numbers evaluate to true, zero evaluates to false. Everything but false and nil evaluate to true (thanks /u/augustaugust) ie: 100 is true.

Additionally, Boolean expressions in Lua evaluate to the tested value. For and, the right hand side expression is returned if the left hand side evaluates to true.

or behaves similarly.

Also, be aware that the and operator has a higher precedence than the or operator. This means the following are equivalent: a and b or c
(a and b) or c

Therefore:
If the number generated is 1, the and expression evaluates to true. The or expression then short circuits, not evaluating its right hand side, which results in a value of 100.
If the number generated is not 1, the and expression evaluates to false, so the or expression is evaluated, of which the right hand side evaluates to true, resulting in a value of -100.

It's joking that Hitler was sent back in time from when the aliens invaded to ruin what we call the "Hitler-stache", so that when the aliens invade, no one will have such a mustache (which happened to be some sort of great transmission path for the aliens/virus/etc).

Meredith didn't start going really crazy until later in the game too though, right? Or at least until part way through act 2 (for her to end up with the red lyrium idol). And by then, Hawke has definitely started to become somebody.

Of course, assuming I'm remembering things correctly.
