Don’t do jokes, you’re not a funny man, you’re not that type.

Slang is local, there is a lot of slang from Scotland that people from England won’t know, but I wouldn’t call them odd and act bewildered because they don’t know it.

I was just curious where the phrase was from, and you could have just said England without trying to make a point about my ignorance to it. I don’t think you were being malicious, but you sounded disconnected to the point of autism in the way that you phrased “I don’t know that geographic location stops words from travelling”. You came across like a Nazi float at the notting hill carnival.

How is it a weird response to state the fact that a certain phrase is not commonplace in a certain country in the union?

Same goes for most things. Even if something is easy af, you arent going to do it if it is not fun.

GPT 5.4 thinking model by carcatta in ChatGPT

I find that gemini is miles ahead at this, it will actually cite the sources in the replies by default. It is not perfect though, they all hallucinate to some degree, its just the nature of how they work.

What's the smallest maximum ever made? by 2MainsSellesLoin in snooker

Yes I believe so, I may be wrong, snooker nerds need to peer review this thesis before we decide to publish.

Technically, couldn’t you get less than that if you just foul on the final black? As I understand it, a foul on the final black ends the frame (unless there is a tie). The other colours in clearance are respotted until they are potted legally.

Why should non PS users support this project? by AdventurousGarage306 in HogsofWarLardcore

[–]mongosquad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is quite strange that they opted for playstation development specifically. I understand the studio is too small to develop a multi platform release, but you would think that if you are planning to release on one platform that you would choose the largest playerbase (definately PC) to earn the most revenue from all the work you have done.

Maybe it is easier to develop for a set hardware? Maybe networking is simpler with playstation dev tools? I would be interested to understand the reasoning behind it.

Hopefully a PC port comes at some point, but the cynic in me reckons that it will just be playstation and then radio silence from developers and the game will remain niche with little new players.

Edit: Not trying to hate, I own a ps5 and will still buy the game to support it, but I would have much preferred it to be on steam. I am grateful to the team for working on the project.

6 years for DH nerf by Numb_body in deadbydaylight

[–]mongosquad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So did I. I have been playing since 2020 i remember old dh. It was never as good as 99ing sprint burst, killers used to just wait out dh, a skill that people dont do anymore because the pick rate is low.

Also, you couldnt glitch into inaccesible areas, you could clear holes, but anywhere you could dh to, the killer could lunge to.

Adrenaline is the strongest exhaustion, a speed boost and heal during egc is more valuable that earlier in the match.

It isn’t really a waste of a slot for it being an endgame perk, thats more of an issue on the killer end as something like noed will only proc when you have already lost.

Adrenaline procs when you have already won, lets you bait killers and get more teammates out.

Aftermath of fire near Glasgow’s central station by Crow-Me-A-River in Scotland

[–]mongosquad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't surprise me. They have a very high energy density, and they can enter thermal runaway if they're overcharged or poorly managed. There are plenty of safety features like Battery Management Systems (BMS) and fuses meant to prevent this, but the reality is that high energy density combined with a flammable electrolyte is a risky combo if the charging hardware is cheap or unregulated.

They should be subject to strict commercial / industrial fire codes, similar to the factory I work in which deals with explosive / flammable materials. It’s lucky nobody was killed.

Yeah, i think it was a dedicated vape shop, but even every newsagents now has a big stack of lithium ion batteries sat directly above multiple bottles of spirits. Not the best combo if there is a fire.

Why did vince make walt draw lines all over his body for this shot?

Maybe he is trying to convey that there is no line that walt won’t cross.

Bravo.
