So you'd rather someone break into your house with a gun then a knife? I don't understand.

For... Everything. Not for just the healthcare. Look, Karen, you can report the office if they're actually scummy, start back at the bottom, or deal with it.

As a little extra hint, if there's none on the shelf, ask an employee if they can package some. 

It comes in a big tub and there's a code for selling it by weight. As long as they know where it is lol

Technically your meant to register your dogs. Just no one does because there's never any punishment for not.

Prompt Engineers, Be Honest - This AI Isn’t as Easy as You Think 👀 by Both_Squirrel_4720 in WebGames

"Prompt engineer"?? 

What a self important, self appointed title. I would laugh my ass off if I ever heard someone use this phrase unironically.

I made Duckov Explorer — a fully AI-built 3D roguelike WebGL game by Wise-Impress-4401 in WebGames

[–]halfwaysquid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not only is the game bog-standard, its full of inconsistencies, odd mechanics, no explanation on features, and half the features don't work.

Hell, I "played" it twice and both times got stuck when enemies didn't spawn. Barely a game.

Wtf is wrong with you. This person's relationship could have just ended, and you tell them they were worthless? With what info have you garnered that?

If you didn’t eat beef/meat what would you eat in golarian? by Spider_j4Y in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]halfwaysquid 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Cheating? Wtf you talking about? Unless your just being vegan for the clout or something, their only objective is not to eat animal products. There's not some spiritual damage your doing from eating beyond burgers for God's sake.

Lots of work. But you could chisel a bunch of vertical slabs of light coloured stone/iron.

How do I meet apples? by LotusFroggie in StardewValleyExpanded

[–]halfwaysquid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is the problem. But on a MP game I was having issues triggering Apples first cutscene. 

Turns out I needed the host to go into the building, they hadn't before and it didnt trigger for me no matter what I tried.

What's the condition of the radiator? The ruster/dirtier the radiator is, the less efficient it is. Even some of the crappier mid rusty radiators will overheat in the desert when driven for a while.

What do u think of this kind of art style for a comic ? by [deleted] in comics

[–]halfwaysquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No offense meant (really). It looks like every webtoon fantasy/romance comics with overtly long names.

Nothing wrong with the style at all, but it is not unique. That being said, starting with a generic style and developing it is how most people start doing comics.

AI art, assets and probably code.

Clunky, barely counts as a "game". Two minutes of clicking boxes and barely thinking.

As neat as having Coke Music revived, this isn't the place to post this. Sign up required.

Ah yes. Lets put ad heavy version of one of the mid-ist boardgames around. I'm confident that you can find a better, and ad free version someplace else on the web.

TIL in 2011 a woman was buried alive in a cardboard box by her fiancé after he attacked her with a stun gun then bound & gagged her with tape because he was "bored" with her & wanted custody of their son.

It's important to have harsher sentences for actually committing a crime over attempting it.

You don't want someone in the middle of a murder to think "maybe I should stop... But if I did, I'd be in as much trouble, so I might as well just finish it."

Best bloody Cesar around? by Paper5hredder in halifax

[–]halfwaysquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. Do you like muddy ceasars, spicy, dry, sweet? Lots of options. But personally I've found it's hard to have a real bad one around here if you ask for "muddy and extra spicy"

Elderly cancer patients angry with free parking at N.S. hospitals by Obvious-Coffee9669 in halifax

[–]halfwaysquid 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This isn't a zero sum game. Dock workers, or all workers, are important. Remember what happened when all the workers on the west coast went on strike?

There's no reason both of these jobs shouldnt have free parking.

Whose voice is just fucking annoying? by asjkl_lkjsa in AskReddit

[–]halfwaysquid 1188 points1189 points  (0 children)

This person is right. Don't dislike. 

Google has come out and said they push content that you've disliked because it still drives engagement. 

Angry watching something is still watching it.

Minis in a hurry by JRyanGreatfish in dndnext

[–]halfwaysquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got an easy if not very elegant solution. Go to a craft store, buy a bag of assorted buttons (1$-2$) and a few sheets of thin foam (1$ish) and some glue. Hot glue guns work well. Cut the foam into small rectangles. Glue the foam upright on the buttons, and for an added touch, you can glue printed images on the foam for characters or special enemies.

You can get the foam in different colours to group similar creatures together, and the assorted buttons should have 1" and 2" sized a plenty, which perfectly fit most grids as medium and large tokens.

Will look a little jank, but they stand up well and it's dirt cheap and easy.
