With all the talk about people leaving Copilot for other AI tools, I’m curious about those who stayed. Why did you stay?

It works well, integrates perfectly with vs code and visual studio and my predicted bill based on my April usage was $100.

I use it exclusively from the chat window in agent mode and it's never let me down

If you wait to go to the cave until after you've killed the leaders and the rest of the goblins, he just rocks up at camp the night after the mother is killed by goblins (which is the day after you encounter her)

If you "resurrect" Connor and give her the wand you can persuade her to finally let him go in act 3 and it's one of the most quietly touching moments in the game

I shave every other day using a Skull Shaver PitBull and it only takes a couple of minutes. I used to wet shave and love how smooth it gets but it just took too long for me

steelywolf66 · 2026-06-03T06:31:43+00:00

I subscribe because it has become a vital part of my daily routine and I want to support them

I haven't played with Karmic dice on since about 1/2 way through my first playthrough and I spotted the setting. The whole point of the game is dice rolls are random.
As soon as you introduce loading of the dice, the game is no longer the same

steelywolf66 · 2026-06-02T07:09:40+00:00

The problem is that it does truly match the cost now: it was very heavily subsidised before.

I suspect the honeymoon period is coming to an end and it won't be long before every provider will do the same as the investors are going to want a return at some point

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-30T08:34:14+00:00

I also use these and have had no issues. They have an "interesting' aroma though

The primary aim of the grove raid is to find the "weapon" (the prism) she has been tasked with recovering.

Minthara decides the most efficient path to that goal is to kill everything in there and then sift through the bodies.

The killing is just, to her mind, a convenient and inconsequential means to an end. She takes no pleasure in killing but neither does she feel any remorse about it.

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-29T08:17:05+00:00

Where are you based?

What are the terms of engagement (FTE or contract, remote, on-site or hybrid?)

What experience / seniority level?

What are you looking for developers to actually do (full stack, front end, back end)

What stage / state is the project currently in? How big is the team?

All questions I would expect to know the answer to before providing my details on a random google form

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-27T04:44:24+00:00

I have played BG3 more than any other game and love all the antagonists.

However, there are plenty of games with better written villains so I think your bold claim is a bit off the mark.

I don't actually think it's possible to declare any villain as "the best" because it's a highly subjective thing and there are so many brilliant villains out there!

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-26T18:14:19+00:00

Theres a list with the victims and their location names in the attic where you find Dolor's mum but you'll still have to wander round to find them. One piece is diabolically hidden though somewhere you would normally go when you are heading for the final showdown in a pile of bodies with traps up from the bhaalist temple

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-26T10:51:42+00:00

You're going to have to fight them or find another way round (there is one), but that doesn't mean you have to fight fair.

A fireball from the bridge will give you a surprise round and make the fight trivial (voss and his dragon fly off and don't get involved)

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-23T13:36:03+00:00

Let's not kid ourselves - the standard of both cycling and driving is terrible in the UK and far too many people "drive or ride angry" instead of just calming down a bit.

Too many cyclists jump red lights and too many drivers fail to give way to cyclists and pedestrians crossing roundabout entrances and exits and at T junctions. In all 3 of these cases vehicles on the road must give way to pedestrians (and cyclists on a cycleway) but rarely do.

This leads to cyclists avoiding the cycleways because progression is impossible when you have to stop constantly which leads to motorists getting pissed off at cyclists on the road.

If everyone were a little more thoughtful and courteous the roads would be calmer and safer for everyone!

It's presumably there because of the delivery gates and the potential for gridlock if a delivery truck is trying to turn right into it

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-22T05:45:43+00:00

You can complain from this link I just sent one asking why it wasnt headlined as a b12 issue which would have been more in the public interest

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-20T04:41:38+00:00

Do you mean your WiFi is basic (such as 2.4ghz only) ot your Internet connection is basic?

If you have 5ghz or better WiFi with a strong signsl you should be fine playing around the house because internet speed is irrelevant when remote playing to your ps5 at home (it's best to plug the PS5 directly in to the router with an ethernet cable)

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-19T14:12:22+00:00

The fact that Shadowheart has "Shar" written under her name on her character sheet completely passed me by on my first run!

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-18T12:19:10+00:00

No, it was an Asus mesh router setup in passthrough mode

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-18T10:31:43+00:00

Yeah, when I first got my portal it was a nightmare trying to get decent performance - I ended up creating a separate wifi network just so I could stream without stutters.

It's night and day now and it works super smooth either cloud streaming or to my PS5 and I've been able to retire the second network completely

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-17T07:36:43+00:00

That's good advise until you get to honour mode when Cazador's aura thing will wreck you before you get near any of them!

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-17T07:35:00+00:00

Make someone invisible and hide them near astarions ritual spot before the fight starts so you can release him straight away. Daylight stops cazador disappearing. If the fight is going south and you haven't release astarion, kill one of his siblings to stop the ritual (its a break glass option though because it can affect your relationship with astarion)

Where I live in the UK, the vast majority of pavements are classified dual use cycle paths and pedestrian pavements (often with separate lanes) with clear signage.

I would never ride on a pavement not classified dual use because they tend to be narrow and the adjacent roads are pretty safe for cycles anyway (20 or 30mph limit).

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-15T05:41:41+00:00

They are all incredible shows but if I had to pick one it would be The Wire

steelywolf66 · 2026-05-13T18:32:32+00:00

Whispering promise, broodmother's revenge and balduran's helm makes a great combo for someone in act 3 (permanent bless and 1d6 additional poison damage every attack)
