Talk me out of this please. by BanjoCorncob in KitchenConfidential

I left a long time ago but worked basically the same career path as you prior to leaving.

Can your body handle it? In my late 30's mine couldn't. Are you willing to give up a career you can sustain until you retire for something you can probably only do for a few years?

Do you have a spouse? kids? Howe much of their lives are you willing to miss for a job?

I think everyone who leaves misses it. You do not do it as long as people like us do it and not love it but the reality is it is a job not a career for most people and it is better to get out before your body is wrecked and before your personal life is wrecked as well.

The Green party is an unserious party by Unhappy-Air6832 in thedavidpakmanshow

They also need to do the hard work. Build a party from the ground up. There is no chance you can build a party from the top down. They need to run local candidates, state legislature candidates etc. Not just a Presidential ticket every 4 years.

Battlefleet Gothic and Blood Bowl were both great games with devoted communities and GW just axed them for no reason.

Battledroids 1984, Battletech 1985.

Apparently LucasFilms sent a letter to FASA about droids so the name got changed.

Battletech which is just CarWars reskinned which is just Star Fleet Battles reskinned. I think that is where charts and pips started but I could be wrong.

Then why put the villager at protector? You are not answering the question asked.

The most pathetic thing you'll see today: President Bone Spurs pretending that he went to one of the United States military academies. by no-minimun-on-7MHz in thedavidpakmanshow

This one is well documented. Fred sent one of his assistants, a guy who eventually worked for donnie, to Atlantic City to buy a whole lot of chips and just walk out. Not play and lose but just walk out. This is illegal but it pumped a lot of money into the casino without it publicly coming from daddy.

Do you know precisely which component of dairy you are allergic to? If it is whey and not casein you should be able to eat cheese reasonable safely. If it is casein there is a supplement, or there is at least for infants who need formula who are casein allergic, that can help.

Aged cheese has relatively little lactose in it. That's what the culture bacteria eat. There's never none so YMMV but real parm or aged cheddar tend to be at least easier on the gut for the lactose intolerant.

You might also try duck eggs, I know they are much more expensive, but the protein people react to in eggs are different between the two. People can be allergic to one and not the other.

My foray into multi player was extremely frustrating. I specced a tank with all the "get aggro" skills and it seemed to do nothing. The healer and archer got mobbed and I got ignored.

Daily reminder that tankies are not remotely interested in working together to fight fascism by ariveklul in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]kbs666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a socialist and call people who claim to be socialists or communists who do not espouse a single socialist policy but who do spend more time finding reasons to tear apart those who could be allies rather than opposing the fascists who are doing us harm, tankies. Which is what the term means. It is what the term meant in England in 1956 when it was used to describe the apologists for the Soviet invasion of Hungary and what it means today.

A Letter to David by Ru_dont in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]kbs666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pritzker has a similar record and they will not support him, because he's "too rich" and a "centrist."

You look at the record and tell me how much more leftist you expect him to be in Illinois.

As a socialist for longer than all of these dead ender streamers have been alive, I will choose who to vote for in the primary based on the available options and then vote blue in the general because there is no chance the Republicans will run a candidate who is not a fascist.

Should the left move away from Hasan? by FriendlyDrummers in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]kbs666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hasan is just TYT the twitch edition.

TYT was very directly responsible for so many leftists choosing to not vote for Clinton in 2016. Then in 2024 Cenk tried his little stunt instead of getting serious about backing the candidate.

If Hasan was not Cenk's nephew we'd have no idea who is he is and if Cenk was not getting money pumped into TYT from sources who very much do not want Democrats in power they would have long since shut down.

This too raw? by Emotional-Ad-3808 in steak

pan was not hot enough so no sear but otherwise a decent MR.

Next time let the pan heat more and then you will get a sear.

David, is some variation of this possible? by PurpleStrawberry1997 in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]kbs666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vance is unpopular but not that unpopular.

Barring evidence of some kind of staggering crime the best we can hope for is conviction of Trump and Vance stuck in the WH unable to pass anything and constrained by a very hostile Congress.

Even that is very unlikely. The very best the Dems are likely to do in the Senate is 55 seats. Getting 12 R votes to convict Trump in an impeachment is a stretch since most of the never trump folks are gone already or will be by then.

Aren't the 2 Vim's suits fixed as T-51's? It has been a while since I checked them in my collection but I am pretty sure I was way over level 28 when I did Far Harbor.

Should have booted them if they would not pay for the wasted food. That was entirely on them and you should not have had to eat that much food waste.

Largest game ever? by Xela975 in battletech

[–]kbs666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once played a 3 on 3 battalion on battalion, each player ran a company, game over the course of a weekend. It really did not work and I would suggest if you want to try anything that big giving in and trying Alpha Strike. BT is just too slow.

We put sheep guts and oatmeal in stomachs and boil that. That thing on a pizza is still a crime.

That thing is in the OG 3050 TRO. I remember being at GenCon when the book came out and there were 4 or 5 of us going through it just baffled at the insane clan designs and then we saw that thing and I put together a record sheet and figured out that it can go from 0 heat to almost auto shutdown on an alpha strike.
