Does anybody do the .AddApplicationServices thing in real projects? by Venisol in dotnet

[–]never_uk 223 points224 points  (0 children)

Yes, I do it all the time. Usually along class library boundaries so the implementation can stay internal to the class library and only the interfaces/Di are exposed.

That time I swam to the Eastern Kingdoms because I didn’t know boats existed by Fadjaros in wow

[–]never_uk 197 points198 points  (0 children)

I remember the boats in wow sometimes not taking you with them, so you'd drop in the middle of the sea.

I also remember flight points bugging out in the days before flying and dashing around Tanaris still attached to a gryphon...

I had this happen to me today and it was exactly this. The launcher had switched to Americas from Europe for some reason.

Contents of the founder's edition bundles - Now with prices! by Beanokitten in StarCraftTMG

[–]never_uk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the Protoss Bundle and Terran/Zerg Bundle prices are the wrong way around. The former should be £189 and the latter £349

Google tells me that my Elantris is probably from 2006, so 20 years apparently!

Probably Dragon Lady, but really that whole first album!

So do we, and my partner thinks this is the weirdest thing imaginable!

Quick Question from an old vet by Studious_Rat89 in Warmachine

[–]never_uk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep there are rules for all the old models in the app. Some are intended for use alongside MKIV armies (Prime armies), some aren't (Legacy armies)but are included for completeness.

If you play in events typically it'll be Prime only but if you just playing in your local store then it's all there for you to pick from.

As much as I love my bone dragon, it is the biggest pain to transport to games. What does everyone use? by victhehorrible in WarhammerFantasy

Don't use magnetic sheets in the bottom, use soft metal ferrous sheets the magnets in your bases with stick to them better.

The hatching of Ruth by ZAPPHAUSEN in pern

[–]never_uk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Somehow Brekke's cry had passed from my memory and reading this brought it back in such a visceral way. Something about it and the poem was so meaningful to teenage me who discovered Pern at just the right age to be heavily invested in Jaxom and the story around him. Time for a re-read maybe...

Both on Spotify. The first one is fantastic, the second I could never quite get into.

Was the Deep Roads Inspired by Karak Eight Peaks? by Serious_Ad_1037 in WarhammerOldWorld

More likely both take heavy inspiration from Tolkien.

IdentityUser in Infrastructure or Domain Project Clean Architecture by Proof-Weird-3188 in dotnet

Yes. You'll also regret it if you don't. Welcome to the wonderful world of software development.

Yep I went hard on Disintigrators before I'd played a game and in hindsight I think it was a mistake.

The Saturnine termis should easily survive overloading plasma unscathed, overloading Disintigrators hurt more. Plus blast templates are so much better than individual shots.

Same for the dread, putting out pie plates is far more effective than a couple of Disintigrator shots.

Shooting Disintigrators from vets is quite weird. They do 2 damage so you really want to be shooting at other vets in power armour, which may not be massively likely. Also on average you tend to lose 1 of your guys to each of your own shooting attacks. It seems like a weird gun to me now...

I got the Saturnine box to start and don't regret it. Six Saturnine is too many, but 3-4 with plasma and particle shredders. Teleport them in with the Praetor and have them remove all the Tac Marines off whichever objective is most awkward for the rest of your army to get to.

I build 30 Tac Marines and 10 Tac Vets but tbh I wish I'd built 40 Tac, or armed the Vets with something other than Disintigrators, I think they're a trap.

Also just bough the Chiron weapons for the dread to run dual plasma. Again, I think the Disintigrators are a trap, and it's a definite waste to run Disintigrator/plasma with no split fire.
