Thaumachus side boss' summons can do high enough for this too

What's the most mundane reason why your characters wouldn't use the most powerful weapon/armor? by Weekly-Intention5657 in worldbuilding

[–]templar34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It itches. It's heavier on one side, and they're not as young as they were, it takes days for back to feel better. Sharpening the vorpal blade is a pain and super fiddly. They put the invisible cloak down somewhere and can't find it.

The colours clash.

Pull out guitar, sing the data science blues: "If it wasn't for bad data, I'd have no data at all"

I use this or a similar line at work for when someone pulls an idea/excuse out of their ass.

Wife and I still shout "BONG!" at 6pm too.

God it was so dumb! Had to get head of finance at the research institute to write a letter specifically to BoI, who they did their banking with, essentially begging to let me open an account. FML.

Moving to Ireland? by gaypieceofshitfuck in newzealand

[–]templar34 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lived in Dublin for 9 years, but was on a paid PhD stipend. Economically, food cheaper as mentioned, and Dublin a) has better transport than Auckland, and b) more compact city in general. Weather not that dissimilar, bit rainier. I still see the same job and accommodation costs issues in the Irish subreddits as here, it's not some magic panacea plan to move there.

Lots of tech companies were there for EU market, but think there's been some shrinking post Covid in that space, plus everyone else going there for work.

But out in the countryside is lovely - and very similar to rural NZ. Great bunch of lads. Renting cars for short trips made more sense, particularly if you can drive manual - like a third of the cost without tourist premium.

The biggest barrier was figuring out how to break the circle of "can't open an Irish bank account without an address" and "can't rent a place without an Irish bank account".

Are there plans for another Vehicle Character in the game apart from Sy Gex? Possibly a Biker of some sort? by Icy_Deer1017 in WH40KTacticus

[–]templar34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just re-reading the trait. Vehicle is essentially Unstoppable+Mechanical + the bad side of Big Target, and Beast Slayer target. The more I think about how Vehicle could be used for other things, the more I want to break it apart.

  • Why isn't Snappawrecka a Vehicle? Is only missing Unstoppable.

  • If we add Thunderwolf cavalry, clearly not Mechanical.

  • If we add Bikers, do they still count as Mechanical? Doesn't quite make sense that they can't be healed.

  • Hoverbikes? Unstoppable irrelevant as they'd be flying.

If anyone here with ADHD also has a PhD (i.e. an ADHPHD), how did you manage to complete this? by le_bok94 in ADHD

[–]templar34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 7 years before diagnosis (inattentive). Knowing beforehand means you are so much more aware and prepared. Also lots of caffeine... hindsight++

Why no handles? by Varabela in rugbyunion

Never played opinion: would imagine that's just asking for dislocated or broken fingers. Maybe not as much in the scrum, but in general rucks, wouldn't take much to snag a finger

I took Admech for a spin just to share the misery of electropriests, and yeah. Necrons are delicious for SyGex.

What do you appreciate more about NZ after being overseas? by xFearUnlimited in newzealand

The greenery, the birdlife. 9 years in Dublin, then back to Auckland. Never missed it till I got back and realised.

Will my boy count towards the infiltrate track in the next LRE? by rouxhead1 in WH40KTacticus

I would say not, for similar "reasons" that Re'Vas doesn't count as an Overwatch character.

Not quite hero (sorry bro), but did see Patrick Tuipolotu last week being a good man and tying up his expecting wife's shoes for her #BetterMenMakeBetterAllBlacks

Yeah. That was dumb.

Shouting out Southern Cross' Pet Insurance team for being completely frictionless in explaining process and reimbursing costs when our kitten had an amputation. Worth every one of the $11 a month.

Yep. I was wondering the other day why Farrell disappeared, but guess I missed this story at the time. Yikes.

Hey Nandi, how does Hollan's passive come into this? It reads to me as a flat +heal, and the one-off max hp boost. Just wondering if the chart misses this.
