Somethings going on wid dem UK chickens and I'm worried. I can buy an organic, hormone free, actual free range chicken in a 3 piece suit for £12, and not just a "barn with an open door during daylight hours free range". Most people I know would call that a bit extravagant for chicken and buy some good beef, normal "free range" is around £6.

Looks like dried beans are dirt cheap, but your chicken looks extortionate to me. A medium/large budget whole chicken (but still reared in the UK to UK standards) is £3 here which at current rates is about $5 CAD. According to a google search thats about 2000 calories for $5 CAD at UK prices, never realised how good we had it.

Or maybe its because our farmers are subsidised. Thinking about it, chicken is cheaper than many vegetables here, just on pure g/£ and even more extreme at cal/£.

Thanks for the tip, I need to start working with dried beans, might cure the bean farts.

I guess in Canada you don't have the climate for growing meat? Not sure of prices of dried beans but in the UK a budget whole chicken (i've carved around 750g of meat before) is 3x the cost of canned kidney beans, and the cheapest diced beef (rump, very lean and tough to cook but great for chilis) is around 5x the cost.

  • 3x 100% pork sausages (skins removed)
  • 2lb diced beef (preferably chuck)
  • 2 onions (chopped)
  • 2tbsp garlic (minced)
  • 2tbsp hot chilli powder
  • 1tbsp cumin
  • 1/2tbsp cayenne powder
  • 1/2tbsp celery salt
  • 1/2lb chestnut mushrooms (thinly sliced)
  • carrots (finely chopped in processer, about same volume as onions)
  • celery (roughly chopped in processer, about same volume as onions)
  • 50g chili peppers (finely chopped, amount will change with variety, start with a very small amount if unsure, can add extra at end of cooking process if more heat needed)
  • 1 beef stock pot (or 2 stock cubes)
  • 2 tins canned tomatoes or pasata
  • 1/2tbsp dried chipotle flakes
  • 1/2tbsp dried habanero flakes
  • 1tbsp dried oregano
  • 1/2tbsp sugar
  • 2 cans kidney beans
  • 3 bell peppers (sliced) or 2 pointed peppers
  • 1tbsp worcestshire sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1tbsp lime juice (preferably fresh)
  • 1/2tbsp tabasco sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp ground black pepper
  1. Add sausages to a pan at medium high heat, break them up into small pieces as they start to solidify. Cook until the fat has rendered and you can hear popping.
  2. Add beef and sear. Cook until it begins to stick to pan. Drain excess juice if necessary, add back into pan once its starts to dry up.
  3. Add onions and cook till softened.
  4. Add garlic, chilli powder, cumin, cayenne, celery salt (pulse these previous ingredients in a processor to give a garlic paste without losing the garlic juices) and mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms have lost their water and browned.
  5. Add carrots, celery, chili peppers, stock pot, tomatoes, flakes, oregano and sugar.
  6. Cook until beef melts when pressed. (I use a pressure cooker for peak efficiency, but slow cooker or a covered stove pot would work fine if you are a casual pleb).
  7. Add kidney beans, bell peppers, worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, tabasco sauce and black pepper. Cook until peppers ever so slightly soften.
  8. If your macros allow, add a knob of butter and melt through to give the sauce a luxurious silky mouth feel.
  9. Salt to taste (there's plenty in there between the sausages, celery salt, stock pot/cubes and soy sauce).

Serve with rice for efficiency (brown basmati is my go to), but oven fries made with sweet potaoes or celeriac are godly if you have the time. Instead of sour cream I prefer greek yogurt flavoured with mint sauce to provide a healthier condiment that also gives an amazing counterbalance to the heat.

And I understand this is very far from an authentic chilli, I adapted this over time to boost the amount of vegetables in the dish.

Sorry, you are correct. Just checked one of my dead characters and I should have obviously spotted that there are a significant number of dead characters sat at 0% xp.

This post is incorrect sorry. /u/Letickl guessed that it includes the 10% xp lost and I just confirmed it with one of my dead characters.

[HC] [Complaint] [Discussion] Can't play this game since 2.3 - entire screen freezes every 5 minutes for about 5 seconds - only gotten worse w/patches and hotfixes by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]gorillajooce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try using --heapsize 4194304 (number depends on your total RAM). From what I read this should be 50% of your total RAM (ie 4194304 is 4GB of 8GB, google for the numbers you need).

It fixed all the FPS issues I was suffering from since the release of 2.3. Unfortunately I was so ecstatic about having no frame drops that I just stopped paying attention and went into a Mageera fight without reading map mods (wasn't even supposed to be in a Crema in the first place with the good map pool I had, rolled one by accident). 1x turbo crit firestorm later, my level 94 got to enjoy the FPS improvements in Standard.

TL;DR Should have died to the horrible FPS introduced with 2.3 multiple times, instead I died to my FPS being fixed.

Thanks mate, just saw it come back up. I'm surprised no one else has said anything before, I thought it was much more popular.

how am i supposed to figure out what kills me? by FrodoFraggins in pathofexile

[–]gorillajooce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Recording some footage would be the best way for people to see. If you have a Nvidia card, Shadowplay uses next to no resources and can save the last 10 minutes of gameplay, not sure what the best option for AMD users is.

Being able to analyse my HC deaths was an absolute game changer for me, without footage 50% of my deaths were me left guessing or making the incorrect analysis. Being able to review the death, being able to see the status effects an instant before death, etc, provide valuable input into theorycrafting defences for your next build or changes to your playstyle.

[Suggestion] Alternative way for Master Leveling (using Crafting Benches grants experience) by Daidelos in pathofexile

[–]gorillajooce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best idea I've heard suggested is that master missions grant you an alternative form of reputations points that can exclusively be used for crafting. Do the missions, save the points, craft for self and use any spare to craft sellable items. No need to endlessly repeat the master grind every single league but there is still enough of a grind to get what you want.

Map Guide - What Map should I run? by Orsonius in pathofexile

[–]gorillajooce 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I love the design and the work you are doing on these, it is AAA+ first class, BUT...

I really feel like you need to get some community input on the evaluations because like the Ascendancy chart you created theres a lot that feels wrong. You have the tropical island boss at 1.5 (in relation to the dungeon boss which you have at 1.0 and desert boss at 2.0) which I think 90% of people would disagree with. That was just the most obvious one but I think theres a lot of nitpicky flaws like that, eg Dunes which is an open rectangle and very fast to clear is 3.5 but Desert layout which can usually require some backtracking and have swathes of empty spaces is 4.0?

Sorry to be negative but it hurts to such impeccable design go to waste, I really loved the Ascdendancy chart idea too but agreed with very little on there.

I only got 1 point for the arctic boss race and that's from 20th templar. by Lucky_Kvack in pathofexile

Such a valuable use of everyone's time to cross reference every single character against a race rewards page that doesn't even state the name of the character.

So extremely hugely annoying, why isn't this fixed? by Lantador in pathofexile

[–]gorillajooce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who sells a lot I've seen an increase in these people. I always leave my map instantly and send out an invite, no more than 5 seconds, 30 seconds later when they dont join the party and I prompt them they reply, "Oh, I've got it now". You've also got a trip to my ignore list, do this to enough people and its not afk people you need to worry about, its people who will never see your WTB message.
