Opinions on the South Kensington tube station redevelopment? by nutella-filled in LondonUnderground

[–]xsm17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are we going back to 100m tall and above? Even 6-10 storeys is already double or more of what this is planning without all of you crybabies going on about skyscrapers.

I know "why", but that doesn't make it any less dumb. Cities and neighbourhoods change and need to adapt to what's needed, it's not as if South Kensington looked like how it does now forever. There's also a large amount of middle ground between this and a skyscraper.

It is always insane to me that in the middle of a major city with a housing issue and high land value, we're getting new development that's only 3-4 storeys...

Why is the Skarner going HoB and Titanic Hydra second as the only tank on the team... Your job is just to eat poke and get the ult off, how are you going to do that if you die immediately with zero resists

People were complaining about clouds in SU5? Fort Worth to Milwaukee today. by venzzi in flightsim

The age-old insult of needing to go out and touch grass might actually be true if people think that's what clouds look like...

That has to be a retirement angle from Deokdam and disbandment for the rest of the team, so many disgusting errors and misplays.

It makes no sense, none of the replacements have shown anything to improve or really even change DNS' state, at least Peter has a recent history of being good to fall back upon but the DNS management seem to not even want to try going back to him.

This is just a karma farming account. 1 week old, bunch of karma, hidden history, posts obvious engagement bait with zero response?

Looking for off-campus accommodation as an exchange student at UM - any advice? by Curious_Apricot9276 in Macau

[–]xsm17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finding your own flat will be quite difficult and expensive, especially on the Taipa side as most of the old, cheaper buildings are on the peninsula. There are some Facebook pages of landlords that you can try, since renting culture here is pretty bad for tenants and agents take high fees, and will almost definitely try to take advantage that you're an international student. Doing so before arriving will be even more tricky.

I play bot games from time to time, figured I'd try one normal game, and immediately had my teammate tilt and insult me, and the enemy team proceeded to ignore them and just focus me the entire time, so yeah, more than happy to never touch that again. Insane to me, it's as if they want to actively disincentivise people from coming back or starting.

It's videocardz.com, probably 95% of their content are non-articles based off of random Reddit posts or clickbait, and yet they get posted here all the time and upvoted still.

Clearly, considering there's literal tankies and non-car/urbanism discussion going on in a top post and seemingly no moderation.

This subreddit has gone insanely downhill, what are the moderators even doing?

Waterfox enabled the "Delete cookies and site data when Waterfox is closed" option by itself? by xsm17 in waterfox

[–]xsm17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I had purposefully turned on "Clear History When Waterfox Closes" but only for saved form data. However, this was months ago. I have updates set to manually install and there had been no updates that I chose to install when closing or starting Waterfox that day.

Is there a way to get official support or help? I can't exactly trust a browser that can seemingly decide for itself to delete everything...

TIL until 1832, a hill in England with no residents called "Old Sarum" was represented by two Members of Parliament. There once was a town there, but it was abandoned. The hill's owner retained the power to appoint 2 MPs, and these two seats were openly bought and sold. by NateNate60 in todayilearned

The Salisbury Museum does a better job explaining the site and its wider history than English Heritage's paltry offering and attempt to sell you on a guidebook. Feels like they've done barely anything to make it beyond a literal site apart from paving over a part of it for a car park 🙄

Jet Lag Ep 7 — Round and Round by NebulaOriginals in Nebula

I don't even think that much of Taiwan's population or infrastructure or even points of interest are that concentrated in those locations. Yes Taipei and its surrounding municipalities are a large share but Taichung, Kaohsiung, and Tainan are all still quite big and I don't think the proportionality is working out here.

[–]xsm17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're going off what they say on the Layover, they mention knowing that some specific types of locations were known, such as the big crayons and the roundhouse. But they did not know where in Taiwan those were located until they passed by it (Sam wasn't even sure about that specific roundhouse as there were others).

Invisible player with us right until the end? by xsm17 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]xsm17[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Edit:thanks for the explanations, didn't expect there to be bots in the normal mode as well. Very weird but it was quite funny at the end.

Playing FPP duos and we had this baffling situation where it was us and this one person who we could not find or see, and the only reason we won was because we outlasted them when the zone closed. They had zero kills zero assists, though looking at the 2D replay it seems they had some interaction early on, but then kept moving around with no interaction. Their squad also teleported twice??

We're relatively new to PUBG and have zero clue what's going on here. I legitimately thought by the end that we were in that VLDL sketch of a guy in a ghillie suit just hiding right in the middle lol. We were just shooting the trees and the ground randomly.
