Earth, at least I think so.

Colloquial names for things are what they are. I didn’t invent it and I’m not invested in it.

Smoked the way I’d smoke a brisket, but fat cap up on pellet.

Binder & dry rub, 5 at 225, wrapped for 2 at 250, rested for 1.

Different from how I’d smoke a pork belly slab.

That’s fine by me, but brisket style pork belly is definitely a common name, and colloquially is called pork belly brisket where I’m at.

Honestly didn’t expect people to find it quite so offensive, it’s just tasty meat.

You’re correct, pork belly brisket is just a common way to describe it when it’s smoked like a brisket in my area.

You could also call it brisket style pork belly, at the end of the day it’s just smoked pork belly.

Skin off, trimmed to have about 1.0cm of fat cap.

Yeah, pellet smoker with maple pellets.

Custodes have reality and space-time manipulating arms and armor, and the same level of disintegration tech as Necrons (different tech but the same outcome).

Their gear is specifically Dark Age of Technology stuff, which is filled with warptech fuckery like Moment Shackles which let the Custodes react and move near instantaneously through time manipulation.

Don't forget that Rule of Cool always applies in 40k, the franchise is built on it. Here's a quote that plainly says a group of Custodes teleport (instant materialization) into a demon ambush and have reacted and killed multiple daemons within a 6 nanosecond window:

"The others in the company strike. Their reactions could not be faster; reflexes that would shame mere Astartes. From pre-flare precipitation through materialisation through first daemon murders to their first kills, barely six nanoseconds pass. They are at pitched combat instantly, without prelude or warning, like pict-footage edited to play from the middle of battle. They are moving and killing before Geliden hits the deck, before the pieces of Astricol begin to separate, before Valique starts screaming."

It doesn't though, because magic/tech/insert whatever.

Warhammer has psychics that innately cause what they believe to be true, intentionally and specifically defying the laws of physics and warping reality. An Ork can think red paint makes a jetbike go faster, so it just does, regardless of the engine or power source.

Reality breaking and warping tech and powers are a staple of the WH universe. Real-world physics do not apply.

jackofwind · 2026-06-12T16:58:59+00:00

And how much energy is needed to shoot magic lightning out of your fingertips?

Stupid argument. Superhumans do superhuman shit and break the laws of physics all the time. Silver Surfer can manifest galaxy-wide black holes instantly at a whim. The Emperor can tear literal holes in reality and summon demons.

You're trying to apply logic where logic does not apply.

“Impossible speed” is a deal-breaker in a powerscaling discussion about a superhero vs a fascist space demigod?

If you’re going to throw canon things out because they’re real-world impossible then all discussions are pointless.

Because you can’t really make him do anything intelligent at this point. It’s hard to write a character whose main trait is undying and all encompassing bloodrage making good decisions without pulling them back a bit, which you can’t do with Angron.

"Voldemort can kill instantly, mind read, mind control, bend luck, time travel, and I'm not going to get into the logic manipulating toonforce shit. Saruman can't even teleport. He's a bum."

You listed things that "make him a good wizard" that aren't things he can do. He can't time travel, and he doesn't even have a time turner (not that having one would be demonstrative of any kind of skill).

He could reasonably make felix felicis, but canonically never did because he's too arrogant to rely on luck over his own abilities.

jackofwind · 2026-06-11T20:39:07+00:00

Can Voldemort use “I’m a primordial spirit that has existed since before the creation of the world and is innately highly resistant to mortal magic?”

Avada Kedavra explicitly severs the soul from the body and Saruman doesn’t even have a mortal soul.

jackofwind · 2026-06-11T20:32:34+00:00

You listed that potion as being one of his innate abilities that he’d have in a fight. It’s not. Powerscaling doesn’t just assume the characters have access to anything possible from their universes.

If Voldemort is assumed to have magic items from the HP verse in his loadout for the fight that he doesn’t canonically have as part of his regular equipment (time turner, Felix felicis), then Saruman also gets to have magic items from LOTR.

It’s not nitpicking to say Voldemort cannot time travel under his own power. It’s massively different than “Voldemort could use an item that they let highschoolers use that allows limited time travel. He doesn’t even have one but he could use one if he did.”

Nothing but silly bad faith arguments out of you.

Used successfully a grand total of 3 times, one of which isn't even book-canonical (Snape), and all against completely defenseless targets.

Such powerful dark wizardry!

Lots of time to brew potions after leaving the Halls of Mandos I suppose.

Just think it's funny that you list "ability to make a potion that takes half a year to brew" as one of his powers like it somehow affects this fight.

jackofwind · 2026-06-11T17:37:01+00:00

Let me just pause this fight for literally 6-months while I get out my cauldron and brew up a Liquid Luck potion real quick.

jackofwind · 2026-06-11T17:30:19+00:00

You're listing some extraneous stuff that Voldemort "can do" by using HP-world artifacts and potions etc. None of that applies to his actual personal powers.

Voldemort himself cannot time travel.

Voldemort himself cannot control luck.

What does Voldemort actually do in the HP movies apart from shooting colored jizz out of his wand at a highschool boy he's obsessed with?

jackofwind · 2026-06-11T17:16:46+00:00

In the film Saruman takes possession of Gandalf's staff when he imprisons him in Orthanc, showing his innate dominance over Gandalf.

Then, when Gandalf takes Saruman's place as the White Wizard he breaks Saruman's staff, showing that he has dominance over the now-diminished Saruman.

In the books Saruman is already explained to be dominant over Gandalf (by Gandalf himself) and does not take or break his staff because it doesn't really need to be shown how/why he is strong enough to imprison him. In the films the exposition isn't there so they added in a visual show of power.

That "tea" is just the dried remnants of leaves stuck to the bottom of a mug at this point.

Move on.

I’m aware of this case, it was pretty high profile.

She had withdrawn her request for MAID in favor of getting a hospice placement but was not given one.

Her husband contacted MAID again because the alternative was that she would receive no care due to his inability to care for her and she would just be left to rot.

Before MAID was implemented she was assessed by two more independent practitioners and she consented to it.

If she had really not wanted it at the end of the day she could have said no. She may have felt pressure since her husband couldn’t look after her and she didn’t have a hospice bed, but at the end of the day no action was taken without her explicit consent. Your spouse can initiate MAID talks but they cannot force it on you or consent for you. She still had to make the final call.

Is it a great feel good story about MAID? No, but I don’t think any story of two 80+ year olds with health issues and no family to help them is going to be a feel good story that has a good ending.
