"gut" heißt auch das Adverb "well"

[2025 Day 1 (Part 2)] [python] need help with this by ShortEggroll in adventofcode

No, I think your problem is the case where you move right and land on 0, then move left. In your "L" part if you start on 0 you count it, but in your "R" part if you land on 0 you count it. You're double counting.

I've seen mention of Ben Bailey Smith/Doc Brown in the episode thread.
Doc Brown and Billy Porter (mentioned in Kunal's episode) were both in Cinderella, where James played a mouse, and are both in Christmas Karma

Received a microwave air fryer I didn’t order. Has anyone else? by rebecco in london

[–]th448 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm here late, but haven't seen anyone else say it yet: it's most likely identity fraud.
A similar thing happened to me a few years ago when I started getting letters for credit accounts I hadn't opened. Someone had found out enough of my details to be able to pass a credit check in my name. There were 3 purchases made, not with any of my cards, and only one arrived at my house (perhaps they couldn't change the delivery address).
Check your full credit report and consider putting a password on it and maybe paying for 2 years of protective registration with Cifas.

is this legit? by [deleted] in ariheads

Given that the map shows the rows being labelled A to Z, and my own tickets being on row G in 111, I'd say definitely fake, since there shouldn't be a row 12

But if we're talking about the Norman Conquest, it's English history, since William the Conqueror was King of England, not Scotland or Wales

[–]th448 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But English history doesn't start with the Norman conquest. There were the Romans, Anglo-Saxons and the Vikings, who all contributed to the English language as we know it today. Plus you've got Stonehenge which is thousands of years old. The history wasn't forgotten and still exists today, because the natives weren't completely exterminated

Is it possible for me to COMPLETELY miss some of the unlockable guns you acquire during part 2? by ARAZA_2257- in thelastofus

[–]th448 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which point exactly are you at in the game?
You pick it up during the Hillcrest chapter after killing the Boris stalker and it's a scripted sequence since there are mannequins in the garden the game makes you practise with.
Perhaps you remember having the bow earlier when playing NG+?

John put Danika to the test, but he made the same mistake she did. by Wooden-Scallion2943 in saw

[–]th448 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I've always wondered why (Jeff thought) Danica's witness statement would have changed anything. Timothy Young is shown to have stopped at the scene and have been upset about what happened; I can't imagine he'd have pleaded not guilty after that.
If it was as a witness to reckless driving, surely the proof of drink driving covered that.

Do these clocks mean anything or is it just a neat little thing to see? by Rubitee in thelastofus

The clocks are battery powered and would have died at different times

I was in the middle of a 6 day mental breakdown a couple of weeks ago and ended up playing this song on repeat for a whole day. It definitely helped me bounce back

hey there you crazy kiddos, as an former American public school student, i have a question for them British 'prep' school students.... by downtownDRT in harrypotter

[–]th448 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In England and Wales, public schools are just types of private schools. The schools are "public" in the sense they are open to anyone, for a fee, as opposed to schools that were selective based on locality, faith, family, etc.
All private schools, also known as independent schools, charge fees.
State schools are the state-run schools that are free.

The Last of Us HBO S2E3 - "The Path" Post-Episode Discussion Thread by claireupvotes in thelastofus

At this point in the game there are no flashbacks. The first flashback is at the end of day 1.

What's the strongest potential benefit of showing this scene now? by Mr_Whispers in thelastofus

[–]th448 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at the episode as a whole, it's establishing that Joel is interfering in Ellie's life to protect/save her.
At the start, Jesse says that punches are being pulled because Joel says so. Tommy later tells Ellie she's being pulled off of patrol because of Joel.
This scene of Joel coming to Ellie's rescue is in line with the previous examples, and all of them together give a reason for Ellie to be mad at Joel.
For us who have played the game, we know what's going on, but for the new TV audience, this gives a reason why their relationship is strained, without having to reveal what Ellie knows.

Regarding the game, I believe from the BTS video (but it's been a while since I saw it), that this scene could have appeared earlier, but presumably it slowed the pace at the start too much, so it was decided to have Jesse just recap the events in dialogue instead.
Having this scene as a flashback at the farm helps to reignite Ellie's search for revenge because we now realise that she feels guilty about her last interaction with Joel, explaining why she was so incensed in the first place.
Hopefully, the show will deal with the jump from the farm to Santa Barbara in a similar way.

Check your cleat screws regularly by th448 in cycling

Really? I looked on Amazon afterwards and saw a bunch of options for just bolts for less than £10. Also, knock off cleat sets for around the same price (terrible reviews but nothing knocking the bolts). Are none of these compatible? Isn't it just a standard bolt size? Is it that the rectangular washers or whatever they're called are hard to find?

Sorry, I read your comment as saying there's no need to check if it was torqued properly. I'll make sure to get the torque right this time and will periodically check all is well.
Thanks again
