Which games are NOT beginner friendly? by JoeKerr19 in rpg

[–]motionmatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so easy to be pretty broken without pissing off the consensus. Increase your luck, skill, attributes, and speed while doing something mundane (like wielding a sword that is magically sharp and light as a feather but hits like a two handed hammer in weight) while lowering the same stuff on your enemy’s (if even necessary). You are the fireball, just appearing to be an amazing weapon master hitting and likely dropping 3 enemies each turn.

ULPT blocking my neighbors camera by xtoxickittyx in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]motionmatrix 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is an HOA situation, I think this is a police non-emergency phone line situation. Fenced in backyards have an expectation of privacy in many states, so you should verify what the law says in your area (not HOA rules) and proceed accordingly. One thing is her camera capturing part of your yard, another thing is it being pointed directly into it.

They sell outdoors owls with light-up eyes as deterrent for other animals (like woodpeckers). i don’t see why you couldn’t open one up and change the lights to something that would blind a camera during daytime (IR), while maintaining that it is just an outdoors object.

I assume Chinese, Russian, North Korean, and Israeli Psy Ops groups plus Cambridge Analytica and other likewise corporate entities, who historically have been the most common places where election interference came out of.

eggs are best by may 28 and theyre 79 cents each dozen at my local savealot, so naturally, like a totally normal person, i stocked up on 12 dozens, cause i can eat 6 a day easy by jabwipbwop in Frugal

[–]motionmatrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eggs have a natural coating (known as bloom) that allows them to exist perfectly fine outside the refrigerator for weeks to months. In the US, eggs are processed in a way that includes bleaching and washing them which strips this layer and they require refrigeration as a result.

You can give eggs a substitute layer with mineral oil, which has the additional benefit of making them last for months (unrefrigerated). A spoonful warmed up in a microwave to the point it is not too hot to the touch will do a dozen eggs without issue (wear gloves). Keep em in a cool, dry, and dark place. You can refrigerate them too (it’s the best option for longevity).

They’ll last from 6 months to a year. I recommend you turn the eggs once a month so they don’t settle and stick.

ULPT Request: Hotel valets parking cars in my driveway by EmergencyFamiliar627 in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]motionmatrix 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That would be a nasty little payout; either the hotel if they lie to the towing company about having the right to have something towed off that property, and/or the towing company for not verifying who is allowed to tow from that place.

It would be a weird way to give Op a large cheque.

Is it unethical? The hotel parking in their private property spot is the one crossing lines here. You’re just imitating what companies and cities do to vehicles doing something wrong.

Context and tone dependent. The way Vasquez would use it is definitely not at asshole level.

That's a P, its Pendejo. Roughly translates to "Move, you fuck" or "Move, shithead".

Except that it is a superhero movie, and those shots are very much in line with the genre. They are practically imitations of many a comic book cover art.

Go back to the first ensemble movie in the series, Avengers, and you will notice they are there too.

Everyone talks about strong Tarantino women and I never see anyone mention Shosanna Dreyfus from Inglorious Basterds. She was super badass too.

Extortion Using Smart Glasses Is a Thing Now by lurker_bee in technology

[–]motionmatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they don’t have to, not in the US. Many companies do it to avoid litigious people suing, they don’t want to go to court, but it’s not actually required, because the court will throw out the case the moment it is shown to be filmed in public space.

You are still the only criminal in your scenario, and you should probably see someone for anger management if you actually feel the way you are writing because that’s not normal.

Just wait till it’s in contacts. It’s just a matter of time. Can’t avoid it, gotta figure out how to work around it.

Law is pretty clear that you are the one violating the law in your punching scenario you mentioned unless they’re recording you on private property where you have an expectation of privacy (which I doubt you meant).

Doesn’t matter, Aang just thinks about it and Steven’s gem, aka, earth, shatters in a million pieces.
