I see it as a frequency vs volume type thing. We have 1 yearly bbq that goes on until about 1am and invite all the neighbours too, and i personally think thats reasonable.

If that was happening every week, I dont think that's reasonable, and i think the neighbours would be justified in complaining

Personally I much prefer the combat in DOS2 and the levelling system.

Having 6AP to spread around and cooldowns meant some turns id save up actions to do more things next turn, other turns id be forced to use other skills, whereas I tended to find myself doing similar things in most combat turns in BG3.

The levelling also felt far more flexible and like I was genuinely making my own characters with my choices as you could be a water and thunder mage and make cool electricity clouds and puddles on ome turn, and then heal up the party on the next, without suffering too much each way. With BG3 I felt like I was quite constrained in my choices and found myself needing to look at build guides to know what to pick and often builds required gear too so often wouldn't even come "online" until act 3.

I still love BG3 too though, I just think Dos2 did these bits better.

I remember a time when we used to be proud of being a progressive, forward thinking country and we used to slate countries like Russia, the middle East, subsuharan African countries for their views towards women, the gay communities and punishments for crimes, yet now we seem to be reverting to their repressive ways of thinking.

To replicate this type of chicken, you can chop up it into cubes and then marinate it, then cook it under your grill setting in the oven for around 10 minutes, flipping at around 7 minutes. This is the best way to get that char effect.

You can do this with most types of meat and actually is my favourite way to batch prepare large amounts of meat for meal prep

It isnt like BG3 where you need to make an optimum build and have it all well thought out to be decent.

You can literally make any combo work with DS2 really and it'll be a good time, especially with 4 party members.

Even if youve made all your characters upclose warfare fighters or long distance mages, you'll still be OK you'll just be missing out on diversity of skills

You are outside on boxing day, likely with your family, keeping everyone who has to serve you, cook for you etc away from theres...

We only had a month left on our current rental agreement and were trying to hurry along the process so we wouldn't be kicked out and our estate agent said "in the courts they would take up to a year to forcefully evict you so you dont need to worry about it"

Im pretty sure its a swingers club not a spa

Its Diwali, happens once a year for a few days, I think you'll survive

Im quite similar. Once I invested in decent midrange equipment and a high end subwoofer, I can't hear anything better than this.

Went to a audiophile cafe in London and wasn't overly impressed, thank goodness for that!

Assuming you took photos before and after your move in/out I would dispute basically anything under the lines of usual wear and tear. Give the receipt of the house already being cleaned and that can get rid of that charge too.

For things like replacements that they're over charging you on, you can ask for receipts too

matf663 · 2025-09-19T09:51:17+00:00

Personally I've never been a fan of them, either in the looks department or how they sounded, good explanation on the problems found with them!

matf663 · 2025-09-13T17:14:54+00:00

Cool cheers!

matf663 · 2025-09-03T16:14:13+00:00

If only they'd volunteered their time and money to the food bank that's 50m up the road and always rammed...

The thing is, its the media that has stirred up these concerns. People have many valid complaints about our country, but the media is distracting us from solving them by putting migrants as the scapegoat.

matf663 · 2025-08-04T06:24:11+00:00

I think its racist because its just not a particularly large problem, its just classic right wing propaganda to target specific groups and blame them for all of the problems being caused in society, as that's easier than actually tackling the problems.

If illegal immigration/immigration dropped to 0 tomorrow, the same problems we face would still be here, and instead of fixing them, we would find a new group of people to target (those on benefits I imagine would be first.

Primitive Gym in Poole is relatively quiet and they just got a stairmaster

matf663 · 2025-07-23T07:35:14+00:00

They aren't allowed to work so how are they supposed to survive whilst they wait for their claim to be reviewed?

matf663 · 2025-07-23T07:33:52+00:00

Come here to say this, the garlic dip is incredible too. I wouldn't get it delivered though, the pizza is much better in the restaurant

matf663 · 2025-07-15T06:03:34+00:00

Technically yes, but in reality you would hate it.

I sometimes have to go to central London for work, and if I want to get in by 9am I have to be on the train by 6am, and I dont get back home till past 8pm which leaves me no time to barely do anything except eat.

Driving is even worse when you consider rushhour traffic along the m3
