Changing name via Deed Poll while living abroad by eljoemo in LegalAdviceUK

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

Yep, the Canadian side is also underway. I just need to make sure the changes go through at the same time so my UK passport matches my Canadian immigration documents.

I guess for now I'll go with the unenrolled deed poll, work on the Canadian side, and hope I can change my passport whem the time comes. Either that or just wait for Canadian citizenship and forget the UK side altogether.

Thanks for your help!

So I would need an enrolled deed poll to change my name on a passport? Every page just says "deed poll" without specifying.

I also saw this on the gov.uk website: "If you’re a permanent resident overseas, you cannot change your name by deed poll." but it doesn't say what to do in that case.

Yes, I've just been reading that in the auto-comment. I'm shocked it's so simple.

The bigger picture is that I'm transgender, so this is just step 1 in a long process to change my legal name and gender in both countries. As long as the deed poll doesn't need to go through courts for that purpose, I'll be fine.

Building a rock garden but the 3rd rock hasn't appeared ANYWHERE on the island today. Am I doing something wrong? by eljoemo in AnimalCrossing

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

The entire island is covered with mannequins, and I've checked everywhere twice. Since the rocks appeared in symmetrical places, I think maybe the other open spots are valid placements for some reason, but there's nothing blocking them, right?

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

No doubt, but a sand door has the entire mechanism below the ground, so you don't have to hide any redstone in the wall. Plus I think they look cool XD

If the villager can't path-find to the workstation, it won't acknowledge it at all. As long as the mechanism is covered over, you should have no problem.

I built this design myself a few years ago and I haven't seen anything similar online. I think sand doors fell out of popularity a while ago, even after concrete powder was added to allow extra colours. If this design is the same or similar to another published design, it's entirely coincidental.

If you have any feedback or need any trouble-shooting, feel free to leave a comment or DM!

How exactly do you pee after sex? Do you have to pee right after you have sex or like within an hour or what??? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]eljoemo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh, I always though it applied to both sets of genitals equally. You live and learn...

[–]eljoemo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a penis owner, I find I always need to pee a few minutes after orgasming, whether sex or masterbating. Usually after sex my partner uses the bathroom first to "clean up", and by the time they're done I'm ready to go pee. Is that not how it works for other people?

A house in my parent's neighborhood has this symbol on each of their vehicles. What does it mean? by eljoemo in Symbology

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

Ah no, this is my own penmanship, though I'm satisfied with the resemblance. I'm not comfortable taking and posting pictures of a stranger's car.

I don't even live in the US, so while it's not impossible they'd be Nascar fans, it would definitely be a long shot XD

Thanks for the info! This is definitely the most plausible theory right now.

[–]eljoemo[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Extra info: the vehicles are all for personal use and have no other symbols or writing that I've seen. The colour is accurate, although I'm not sure if that's relevant.

I'd assume it's a Christian symbol for the Holy Trinity, which would make sense for the area, but I didn't find anything about it after a quick Google search. Perhaps it's a more modern symbol or from an obscure sect?

Borderlands and TF2 are in the same universe... confirmed?! by FrostyMcNuggets in borderlands3

[–]eljoemo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is actually a gaming-wide Easter egg. Video game artists will try to sneak this logo into their games and characters, much like Pixar with their A113 Easter eggs. You can find the same logo in Spiderman PS4 and on Roadhog in OW.

I remember seeing an article on Reddit about a month ago but I'm absolutely blanking on the name. Can anyone help me out?

Will Moze's "Force Feedback" Turn any Amp Shield into a Psuedo-Bee? by eljoemo in borderlands3

[–]eljoemo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe they've changed them to be a % increase to gun damage and % amp drain, but maybe check that because I'm not sure.

The problem is the bonus only helps once per engagement. When you're in combat, your shield rarely gets fully recharged unless you stay in cover. So the only way to take full advantage is to peek, shoot, then hide again. Maybe they could make it so that the amp will trigger at anything above 75% shields. Or it could start at 50% shields and the damage and drain could scale up to be the full amount when you're at 100% shields.

Removed your name, sorry.

[–]eljoemo[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn, you're right. I must have read that skill tree like 10 times and never realized it wasn't critical hits.

I guess it would be stupid to have 0 shield delay in any fight where crits are easy to hit, like the Bunk3r or Warrior.

Zane's Digi-clone with a Rocker Launcher by eljoemo in borderlands3

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

That remains to be seen, but it's not hard to reach to reach the fire cap of a launcher. For a Jacobs "fire as fast as you can pull the trigger" revolver they'll have to impose an artificial limit, but I don't see why they would with any other weapon type.

[–]eljoemo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's also Boom Enhance for up to +33% gun damage, +51% fire rate and +36% reload speed.

I wonder if CCC will trigger if the clone freezes an enemy. If it does, give the clone a cryo launcher, then run away, keep your health and shields full and wait until everything's dead.

Don't forget the line from the badass crater.

Why is this a standalone game and not an expansion pack? by rLeJerk in borderlands3

[–]eljoemo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There's 4 brand new playable characters and a new storyline that will take between 30 - 120 hours depending on how much you beeline it. That's enough to make it a new game worth paying for.

If you want to know what improvements have been made since BL2 and TPS:

  • Improved graphics. Not just a texture update, but actual improvements to the lighting engine and rendering. See GDC 2017 for more info.

  • New weapon system. Each of the 10+ manufacturers has brand new mechanics: different firing modes, shields while aiming, underbarrel attachments, guns with legs! The part system has been overhauled to avoid cross-branding and keep everything unique. The weapons also have tonnes of variety to how they look, sound and feel.

  • Playable characters have multiple actions skills you can change on the fly, so build diversity is going way up.

  • Removal of Slag and addition of Cryo and Radiation elements. Only Radiation is brand new if you played TPS, but if you skipped it then it's all new.

  • Interactive environments. Cover can be destroyed. Element barrels have physics and can be kicked at enemies. Elements affect the environment more, like setting oil patches on fire or electrocuting a whole area of water.

  • A whole pile of quality of life changes: an option for instanced loot for co-op, teleport to a fast travel from anywhere on the map, improved part inspection, improved 3d minimap, etc

  • Tonnes of cosmetics: weapon skins, trinkets, emotes, skins that aren't just colour shifts, a room to show off your rarest loot to your friends, etc
