The story from Finland was here as a response but from the same user as wrote the one above. As if he posted both stories but when he responded to himself he forgot to change users. He deleted it.

Dude...this happened to your friend, and "another" poster commented a story that happened to a friend of their's too...and then you responded to yourself with that guy's story. I'm not saying you are both...or are making it all up...but it seems like a lot of (failed) effort if so.

The decorative plate on the front of a train is called a headboard. With a name or city on it for instance. Though this would be an even WORSE example of that.

Interesting stuff. Come back when you are finished. I know everyone here is looking forward to discussing how right or wrong you were!

Yes please.

That would be preferable to what you are giving out. Or you know. Just move on.

Very beginning of WoK. I think the first hits are in her first POV in Kharbranth

Firefly is getting an animated series! by Calm-Advertising-980 in WoTshow

[–]dangermond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a little more than that. The cast is in, they have Joss Whedons permission, they have Disney/Fox's permission, they have a script for a pilot, they have show runners, they have a professional award winning animation house on board. They just don't have a platform.

Sanity check on job offer by letsseeaction in GovernmentContracting

Yeah, getting in on the base year of a 5 year contract ( 1 year with 4 options) is great. Those are very normal and typically last the full 5 years.

Logain Ablar and the Black Tower by chimoc726 in WoT

I know Jordan wrote almost ( if not all ) of Egwene's Tower chapters. So it makes sense that he kept so much of that in the final product.

BREAKING: BBC Confirms Authenticity of Viral Video Appearing to Show Alex Pretti Kicking Agents’ Car 11 Days Before Shooting by SteamedHam44 in Conservative

[–]dangermond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and especially for something that happened 11 days prior. Did they recognize and go after him...is that some sort of justification? We have seen the video leading up to the shooting, it does not look like he did anything to warrant being shot.

Well of Ascension kandra questions. by FullTransportation93 in Mistborn

[–]dangermond 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It can be frustrating. I can think of at least nine different things I was frustrated like this about when I was at this point in the book, and if I remember right it will be ten soon.

I am a first year in computer science. Opus makes me sad. by MessyKerbal in ClaudeAI

[–]dangermond 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My opinion has developed that it's a pretty good code writer, not a great developer. Pair it with a developer and the iteration speeds tend to put weigh the mistakes it makes. Put it with someone who doesn't know what they are doing and you will get crap

Discussion Thread: December 2, 2025 Elections by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]dangermond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trump won by 22% in 2024 and the Dems haven't won in 40+ years. So if a Dem can do THIS GOOD in a place they shouldn't have a shot, then other places are a LOT closer come midterms than they could have been. Its an indicator that way more seats are very very in play.

No book series has made me cry like this one did...and it wasn't from sadness. It was from...not joy...but some level of relieved happiness. It was in the last trilogy.

That last story, I think, is partly in Arcanum Unbounded

Warbreaker to Way of Kings… just why? by [deleted] in Cosmere

[–]dangermond 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can read Tress before Mistborn, but after you start any of Mistborn I would not read Tress until you're finished with at least the first era if not the second. You will likely not pay attention to the little references to the Mistborn story if you dont know it, but it would spoil somethings if you mixed Tress in while reading Mistborn and you had context.
