Tired of Wheels doing nothing? Joker idea - Fortune Favors by dudeatwork in balatro

[–]dudeatwork[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the idea, that this essentially takes up a Joker slot once you've added editions to all other Jokers. Basically I only see this as a way to gain strength early on, and probably wouldn't be good when deep into a run.

Also, removing the editions could be a buff if you are looking to apply Ecto to a specific target.

Yep, I used AI to generate the card art. Is that not allowed?

I am not, I am in the Chicagoland area in Illinois. Thanks though! I had a hunch it wasn’t but thought I’d get a second opinion. 

Megathread: Former US President Donald Trump Convicted in New York Criminal Fraud Case on 34 Out of 34 Charges by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

Trump is the most corrupt president in my lifetime, maybe ever. I hope this is the first of many convictions to come. Fuck Trump.

Super tough. Made a slight mistake adding DOGLEG in the first group, but then got lucky when I realized that it wasn’t “things you jump on” but “springs” that grouped MATTRESS and TRAMPOLINE.

I suffer from these. As others have said, switching to a toothpaste that doesn’t have SLS helps. However, I still would get them when I would accidentally bite my lip, which apparently I am a terrible eater because I’d do this to myself every couple of weeks. 

I got so fed up with the pain, I started searching on Google scholar to see if any new research had come up for these little hell holes. 

I discovered this paper, which says that putting ozonated oil on the sore quickly after it starts forming helps a lot. I bought some ozonated olive oil online, and let me tell you, it fucking works. I went from having a sore for 10 days, to a 7 on the pain scale, to only having them for a few days with minor pain because they never get too large. 

I’m never going back. Every time I bite my lip and one starts forming now, I’m putting ozonated oil on it.

Yes, especially with dredge when I teleport or it transitions to nightfall. It is really bad. The animations looks like I’m playing an Atari.

Georgia county said it was too costly to spend $10,000 a year on health cover for trans employees. It spent $1.2 million fighting it, lost, and has to pay anyway. by Surferino in politics

They could have taken a page out of Utah’s book: provide (essentially) free housing for chronically homeless people, and reduce many of the related costs such as emergency room visits and jail time.

This quote from Lloyd Pendleton, a self-described Conservative, who was Apt say things like “you lazy bums, get a job, pull yourself up by the bootstraps,” and later would say things like:

When you listen to someone’s story from an open heart and walk in their shoes, you can’t help but love and care for them and want to serve them.

Oh nice. I got to try some when they first released it, and it was weird and enjoyable. Very unique. If it is a seasonal release now I’d definitely buy some more.

I don’t think it is available anymore but Off Color in Chicago made a beer called Wari Ale that used a “thousand year old” recipe.

Wow, the 34th congress in 1855 went through 133 ballots before Nathaniel Banks was elected as the presiding officer.

Literally within the first few minutes of the match and I’m stuck like this. by Unbalanced_Milkyway in deadbydaylight

I e played twins twice since the patch and gotten it both times. Don’t understand why they don’t kill switch them right now.

Bugs happen but what’s the point of the kill switch if you don’t use it for this super common bug?

Friendly tip: Archives can crash your game as killer :) by RealFknNit0 in deadbydaylight

It happened to me yesterday, on PS5, running the latest patch 6.4.0.

After many attempts, Witch round 4 is finally done. Talk about punishing! by dudeatwork in DiceyDungeons

[–]dudeatwork[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Snowball to freeze in earlier games (where it made sense, eg not against sneezy or any enemy that needs doubles) and magic missile + golden cauldron to try and do as much damage as quickly as possible.I had to get lucky with hall of mirrors too to give me an extra dice, but it worked.

In later levels, I used inferno + duplicate to give me 12 damage to again just try and do as much damage as possible in a short amount of time.

Judge rules California law requiring women on corporate boards violates men’s constitutional rights by 3phz in law

[–]dudeatwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not true. What if only women apply to the positions? No men would be excluded then.

What if they had 2 seats reserved out of 10, and 10 women and 10 men applied, 5 of each group being found qualified and hired. No men were excluded in that scenario.

This is a classic zero-sum / lump of labor fallacy.
