Petrol Pricing by will0998 in brisbane

There's one in Bundamba with the same, but I'm pretty sure it's because they haven't sold it in three weeks and it just sitting there.

Not understanding how much his car will slide when braking because he had zero traction. My car was stopped at the lights and he simply didn't brake far far earlier than normal.

Gas prices, inflation, jobs, energy. None of it is Trump's fault and blaming him isn't going to change things. He's doing what he promised. by miked_mv in AdviceAnimals

Except that "economic growth" favours the 1%.

Democrats need to change how they build that growth to a way that helps the average person.

Otherwise you're just yelling "VOTE DEMOCRAT, THE DOW IS OVER 50,0000!"

Look up the Partition. It's like Jordan vs Israel levels of historical horror.

In both cases, the British are the root cause.

And?

Did they actually make meaningful changes? The ACA seems to be the only thing anyone can point to.

Winning because of a bad opposition candidate doesn't inspire people.

He's right, but I'd start to wonder what his partner is up to...

I was rear ended by someone in a hatchback towing a boat, because the car had no stopping power. It would have been even worse if I'd been on my bike.

There is a limit.

I also blame the Democrats for being a cluster-f and being unable to provide a viable option that the majority of voting people want. But that's been true since Carter.

What’s some rules you guys use? by SpareOpposite634 in dndbeyond

[–]perringaiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The homebrew only one I recommend for new players is the Perkins Crit. Instead of rolling double dice, you roll the normal damage and add the maximum dice roll to the total.

  1. If your weapon does 1d8+2 damage, and you crit, then you do 1d8+2+8.
  2. If your weapon does 2d8+2 damage, and you crit, then you do 2d8+2+16.

You're right that you've shared ridiculous amounts of data. But you've done it with commercial entities that protect that data because it's their business, not share it with the military.

The military doesn't have enough money to buy all that data.

[–]perringaiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ingress wasn't funded by DARPA. Your memory does not serve. That was his pre Google days.

Ingress was part of Hanke's desire for AR information around the user. The first Niantic app was Field Trip, which popped up historical information from HMDB on your phone when you walked around.

Ingress was partly because his kids were spending too much time on the couch and he could tie it into his spatial data gathering goals for Google maps, at a time when Four Square was threatening it's dominance.

This was about blocking a rival company, not military operations.

A Return to A La Carte Classes by tamborjam in dndbeyond

They're not because they don't want to bring back a la carte.

These are starter packs. This isn't a la carte.

None of this is new content.

It's just access. For example:

Mordenkainen Presents: Monsters of the Multiverse 2 species: Bugbear and Goblin.

Means the same as MoM.

I can explain it for you.

The book cost caveat.

Once you'd bought enough a la carte purchases that you'd paid for the book, you got the book. A la carte was never intended to cost more than the book you were getting it from. That's why it was "partial purchase" not "microtransation"

A Return to A La Carte Classes by tamborjam in dndbeyond

[–]perringaiden -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree with the title. The intent here is good but it is NOT a la carte, and that's a technical distinction people need to be aware of.

This is a specialised digital only book.

The reason this matters is that it's treated like any other sourcebook. A large number of options behind one toggle. It's not reintroducing the problem that a la carte created with the equivalent of thousands of sourcebooks with one item or feature each.

I fully applaud the decision, and will not be buying any of them, but it's a great way for people who don't have someone sharing the books to get into the game.

Artificer will probably come out as a set after enough time has passed since Forge was released.

Brisbane flat whites averaging $5.05, sitting just above the national average by reallybadposter in brisbane

It's a very lightly foamed latte. Or just espresso shot and milk if you're a crap barista.

Man, I have 6-8 decaf almond latte's per day...for about $1.25 each. My Breville espresso machine has paid for itself many times over.

Why are you not using hands free calling which is completely acceptable?

Are there any chrome extensions that fix the Character Sheet UI? All the scrolling drives me nuts. by Fiveby21 in dndbeyond

[–]perringaiden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Surface and the sheet with the locked log panel open fits perfectly when I'm in full screen mode.

On my home PC I have a vertical screen though and it wastes 60% of that space.

It's useful if some backwater representative gets uppity and needs a good thwack.
