Look guys, historically so many invasions in winter have failed, but we know that like roulette, it can never fall on the same number twice, because I don’t understand how probability works, which means we’re guaranteed success if we invade now!

One of my great aunts found seeds in her sons room after he moved out.
She liked to grow things and planted them in the gardens oht front to see what sprouted.

She grew these very large, beautiful plants from those seeds without knowing what they were.

Her sisters (my granny and a few other great aunts) went to visit, saw her front yard, and they immediately cut it all down after explaining what she was growing.

Had some neighbors that grew it.
Since my yard was always over grown (6 to 9 feet tall bc hate yard work that much) I would always joke to be careful, they may have hidden weed growing in there.

My yard guys would joke back bc they knew it wasn't the case and it doesn't just blow over and grow.

Well, they were mowing the yard and didn't see the plant, one was growing wild and they weed eatered it down to nothing before realizing.

My brother skipped almost every day of his 12th grade year.
The school didn't pay attention to who was signing out the students, so friends would go and sign each other out and they just left the school.

When I was called up there for my bad parenting, I threatened to sue. Their fix for it was to have ME bring my brother up to the school for Saturday classes and sit with him so I could help him with the homework at home.

I told them to fail him and make him repeat the 12th grade.
My brother passed as an A/B student bc they refused to fail him and gave him remedial work to just pad the grades

"Do you know why I pulled you over" is such a bad question for a cop to ask. I'm so glad they've stopped doing that out here for the most part

Also, don't hit me with that Terry Stop bullshit. "I pulled you over because you weren't wearing your seatbelt (I was), but not that I have you stopped, I'm going to write you a ticket for something completely different."

cloud plover
#

That's one I got thrown out. Cop pulled me over because "no tail light". I got a ticket for having an expired license (genuinely didn't realize it was past due) and something else, can't remember. He said he was going to "let me off" on the tail light. Noooooope. I asked him to write me a ticket for the tail light. Why? Because I knew it worked. I took a video of my brake lights before I even pulled away, so when I went to court I had proof the initial reason for the stop was bogus.

#

Because they can't enforce any other tickets if the REASON you get stopped to begin with is false.

#

So if a cop ever says he's going to a favor by not writing you up for something, he's not. He just knows if you contested it in court, it would get thrown out, and wants you to try to fight the other charges instead.

It was something they had back in 2015 (I believe it was created back in 2013) as a means for Nintendo to take a cut of ad revenue from videos featuring their games on platforms like YouTube, but requiring creators to submit content for approval and restricting monetization.

It ended in 2018.

Nintendo TOS says I can't make archival copies of my games, Copyright law makes an exception to make personal archival copies, DMCA claims you can't break encryption to exercise such a right. I exercise my rights to an archival copy regardless, because having something be a right and having something to prohibit exercising a right is not something that exist.

Oh wow only 2 out of 60 streamers are even breaking 20 viewers playing palworld atm so good luck with that. Affiliate/partner should have been the only requirement. HOWEVER, just for the love of the game and my hatred for gamefreak Ill host a server, play and stream for at least a month and hit max level and do end game content like perfect breeding.

Sorry this is in regards to the last announcement about the partner program. IDK where I can voice my opinion that wouldn't get drowned out and am not about to DM someone over it. The 20 CCV requirement is silly. Thats basically only the top 5% of twitch streamers and half of those are botting anyways. Id like to know if anyone whos in charge of planning this has even opened twitch in the last year.

teal iron
#

I thought 20CCV was honestly on the low end

glossy phoenix
#

Its hard to explain. If you can hit 20 viewers then you are probably gettting way more than 20. Lets look at minecraft for instance. 1257 people are streaming minecraft right now but only 50 of them have over 20 viewers. 15 of those 50 have 20-30 viewers each but then the next 15 are double that, then the next 18 are 100+ and the last two over 1000. That means only 4% of even a game like minecraft has streamers with over 20 viewers while those 4% have 27% of the viewers.

teal iron
#

but yeah that would probably be the point

#

Maybe, idk

glossy phoenix
#

Pocketpair would be far better off just approaching individuals then

#

maybe they are doing that too idk

tranquil obsidian
#

right now only 3 people qould qualify and 2 arent even playing the game, but this is a terrible time of the day to really pull any statistics.
basially, at this current time, the only way you'll realistically get 20 CCV is if youre streaming something else to get numbers, then switch to palworld upon getting partner
and if people are following you because of, lets pick on hytale, and you suddenly jump to palworld after hitting 20CCV, you might not keep that value.

20 CCV is probably going to be super easy once 1.0 hits though =p

#

20 CCV is low enough that its probably just some filter; PP likely arent going to enforce it too strictly

glossy phoenix
#

its primetime somewhere. I would imagine the numbers change a little but the ratios staying mostly the same.

#

you cant even apply if you are under 250 follows which already rules me out lol

if pal damage (player) and pal damage (enemy) were seperate world sliders i could see a fun challenge in stacking the world agains you and trying to beat the first tower

#

then if it went badly, invite viewers to join as meatshields

#

the idea of "how far can you get if literally every world slider is maximised against you?" would be the type of masochism i imagine some would watch =p

#

but the big issue comes in pal damage; becaue you either increase or decrease ALL, you cant really stack it one way or the other. if you increase, your pals do too much damage and if you decrease it, the eneies arent a threat

basically any fox pal.
i wanna say Kikit too, but it needs a better passive

mine is incineram, i may keep mine on my team no matter what cause tbh i love it's unique design and how i can tell it "go get em" with their ability

Why is it broken

#

An electrician should really know where wires go

#

I read about a plumber who died because bad wiring

#

Some moron connected the washing machine socket up incorrectly

night plume
#

Documentation for equipment comes in.
My group checks it to make sure it meets spec(much of this does not, problem 1).

My group then combines all of the different equipment into 1 electrical diagram for the electrician to know where everything is located, where to hook it up, what size cable, etc.

Another group uses the info to figure out where it will be installed.

zinc depot
#

Connected live and earth in the socket other way around

#

So everything in the washing machine that was earth tagged came live when plugged in

#

casing was live

# zinc depot I read about a plumber who died because bad wiring

I had an AC guy hook the grounding copper to my AC unit up to the power and leave it hanging.

When I got a new AC, I told those techs that the wire was live. They tried explaining to me how a ground works and I kept telling them the idiot before then connected THAT groubd wire up to power and it doesn't trip the breaker, that is why they were here, to fix it.

They didn't believe me and the guy went and grabbed it to prove to me it wasn't live, was shocked to heck and back, and burned his hand.

#

I killed the chat xD
Title remains!

zinc depot
#

lol wtf

#

Grabbed it to prove it wasn't live

What is a volt stick?

#

Do you have a background in electrical installation too?

#

if so, I have a video for you to look at, tell me why tf this happened

#

sent it, why tf would that happen?

night plume
#

My knowledge extends to looking at a manual and telling where things go.

Covid took away my practical training x.x

zinc depot
#

My best guess is my finger was grounding the voltage, somehow

#

made no sense though

#

It's detecting the electrical field around the live of the light switch

#

so why did my finger interfere

night plume
#

The one I have goes red if there is no ground and green if ground.

The electrician in our family used to connect the switches for the lights in many relatives houses and those switches would shock you if you didn't just flick it, but instead pushed it all the way up to be on.

I honestly am not sure how that is managed if you hook up a light switch per directions

zinc depot
#

Indeed since the switches are plastic usually

night plume
#

I wouldn't let her touch anything in my house >.>
She is also the one that recommended the AC guy that powered the ground

Switches giving people a shock

How? lol

night plume
#

Idk, I don't mess with electricity. It is one of those things I find to be amazing, beautiful, but I know not to tamper with it xD

zinc depot
#

Running live through another core to avoid a switch tripping is a dodgy trick to avoid paying for an electrician to fix a fault

#

I remember a job where me and another guy did an eicr result fault find

#

There was a neutral-earth fault, somewhere in the lighting

#

We were scratching our heads trying to figure out how, we couldn't find any cables loose that could be causing neutral to go down earth

#

Eventually resorted to taking everything apart, switch fronts off, light baton covers off, trying to trace it

night plume
#

I think the weirdest electrical find for me was something my dad did.
He was trained for this and knew his stuff, but decided to connect the pump house(for pumping well water) to a breaker for something else. He soldered it on top xD

We only found this was done bc a lawn person accidentally cut the wire and the live end kept arcing when it got wet

zinc depot
#

It was 7pm, and we found someone connected neutral to earth inside a light fitting

#

Neutral earth fault, because the neutral was connected to the earth

night plume
#

Was it at least an accidental swap?

zinc depot
#

No

night plume
#

x.x

zinc depot
#

They had cut the earth off and connected the neutral to it

....

#

Reminds me of that apartment complex that told me to shut up >.>

The wiring was outdated and had no outlets with grounds.
The seller told my sister you buy adapters and cut the grounds off of your appliances.

I grabbed my sister and told her I'll pay the difference in rent wherever she goes to make sure she wasn't there.

zinc depot
#

lmao

#

No earth on the outlets, so just remove the earth in appliances

#

wcgw?

#

Know what's wrong with these trades?

#

there's no incentives to train apprentices

#

You want a horror story about trades?, I have one

#

I had the worst boss, ever, I started the trade as a laborer, hoping to learn one of the building trades at the electrical and building services company

#

There was me, laborer, an electrician (boss), an eletrician and joiner (co-partner in the business), a plumbign and joinery apprentice, an electrical apprentice and a secretary

night plume
#

I was watching a youtuber that does "home improvement hacks" to save money.
He had A LOT of views on this particular video bc it was how to take a battery powered generator and hook it up to your home so it kicks in like a backup.

The video starts, he builds housing, gets the generator, explains why he chose it, then he pans over to the power company and electrician and goes, "and you hire the professionals to do the connections right and make sure the power company is involved so it isn't against their code."

I feel maby closed the video at that point, but he got a subscriber out of me

zinc depot
#

The electrician boss was a lunatic

night plume
#

Most seem to be

#

Also, I'm always up for stories, so just ping me if you want to tell xD

zinc depot
#

The first person to leave the company was the secretary, he went to the office one day and wanted to know every single thing she does in a typical day

#

He cut her hours to 16 a week and had all the company calls rerouted to his mobile

Which meant he was constantly taking calls while at work

night plume
# bleak crater power company? lmao

If you are connecting things to your power box that the power company has installed on your house you need to have them send someone out to confirm the project. If you do something incorrectly, not only can you cause harm to your property, but you can harm equipment down the line.

zinc depot
#

And when he took a call, he didn't leave the room and he would go nuts and yell if anyone made noise, so whenever he was talking on the phone, everyone had to stop drilling or hammering

#

Eventually the secretary got a new job and vamoosed

night plume
#

I would too if I were that secretary

zinc depot
#

She got him a contract at the port she then worked at, and he took her out to dinner to thank her

#

Because he only took her, the other women in that office got catty and drove her out

#

so he practically got rid of her, then got her fired

bleak crater

#

Next to go was the plumbing apprentice, he was supposed to drop off another apprentice at a job, then go to a different one, he turned up and had all his mates in the car and looked like he had taken questionable substances, then he turned his phone off after dropping an apprentice off and went home, boss sent a message saying don't bother coming in

night plume
zinc depot
#

Next to leave was the partner, 15 years in the company and he had enough

#

The boss went on holiday for two weeks

night plume
#

That company sounds like it went under fast o.o

zinc depot
#

Big contract was on, the other electrician worked 12 hour days till 7-8pm every day for two weeks

#

The boss came back off holiday, called a meeting, complained job wasn't finished, was a big rewire

#

Other guy quit two weeks later, set up on his own

#

Boss went mad, other guy became he who shall not be named, mention his name and boss would go nuts

#

Of course I talked about guy who left every day

#

🤣

#

So then it was just two apprentices and bad tempered boss

#

Boss decides to make the other apprentice his retirement plan, pushes the apprentice to pass his driving test so he can give him the van, stay home and take a cut from jobs, only show up to test and sign off work

#

Apprentice feels the pressure, fails 21 driving tests

night plume
#

21????
That is worse than my ex

zinc depot
#

One day boss turns up in the morning with L plates, tells apprentice to drive the van so he can see where he is going wrong on tests

#

Apprentice quits and goes to work for the guy who set his own company up, boss goes mad again

#

I were on the job already that morning, putting up a light, boss came in looking enraged, I didn't figure out wtf was going on

#

It was just me and grumpy ass boss then, he finally decided to train me in electrical installation, I got tired of him after two weeks and left, set up a decorating company and went self employed

#

Last I heard, the guy who set up his own company who was the boss's business partner abandoned it for a company job in the industrial sector

#

The apprentice that worked for him is not qualified still and has his own apprentice who drives him around

#

He still hasn't passed his test afaik

#

Boss came along spazzing out because he were a looney "You don't need pliers, why are you wasting time, just do this"

Sticks his finger on hot metal circle trying to push it out, sizzling was heard, he badly burned himself

#

Plan was to keep boxes of standard stock in the van, which was too small for much

it was a 2 and a half seater tiny van, with three people in the front

#

Always cramped

#

But his stockboxes, he brought household plastic containers-from lidl's

#

they always broke, turns out they were not really robust, van full of tools smashes them to bits

I signed this

#

I potentially made gaming better or worse.

teal iron
#

In theory it makes gaming better

#

but the last final stand of EA/Ubisoft/Microsoft is going to be malicious compliance

#

If they can't lobby it off the floor, if they can't undermine its authority, the next best thing is to "comply" in a way that is actively harmful

#

the unfortunate reality is that the corporations this movement hopes to target have a habit of weaseling their way out of being good to consumers, they live in a world so rife with backstabbing, manipulating, and cheating that the idea of being honest and providing a fair deal is considered foolish, or a ruse

just finished watching the trailer as well as a deep dive of the upcoming terraria update, very cool to see that the palworld/terraria collab wasnt one-sided. Cant wait to hop back into terraria (havent played since before Journeys End 😭 ) and see what the Pals can do

north thicket
#

it was never said to be one-sided

wheat widget
#

it was never said to be two-sided either

#

at least not afaik

north thicket
#

pretty sure it was, there was also at least one trailer to 1.4.5 that showed Palworld stuff coming to terraria

#

at least i remember seeing a digtoise in one of them, but i would have to search for it

wheat widget
#

the new trailer that came out a few hours ago definitely does. dunno about any previous trailer tbh

north thicket
#

i remember seeing one a little while back

wheat widget
#

im not really that much into terraria. like i said i didnt play since before journeys end and even before that never got to a point where i defeated the moonlord. so im very much out of touch with all things terraria. getting into the rythm of it only now again so there's for sure things i missed out on and just dont know about yet :b

nevertheless i'm excited to play 1.4.5 and get every achievement again

yea i remember it being a lot of fun back then. played it with that one huge mod that added a bunch of new bosses with sick new music and stuff. the last boss i defeated was a modded one that looked like a space worm and was mostly black and had orange and blue spots and lines everywhere. ive been wanting to play it again for a while but its very time consuming so ive been putting it off for a while xD

north thicket
#

that sounds like the Calamity Mod, a classic i never play without when playing modded

wheat widget
#

yea that was the name, Calamity

#

ive heard that nowadays there's 3 of these huge overhaul mods in total but Calamity is the only one i played

Could break immersion by not being serious to the core theme of the game.

Odd choice for a story style, but I like The Office teehee I saw a few posts about how player decisions matter and change the way the townsfolk perceive you a lot, which is standard for Fable

Oh no, chill, I never said anything about that, it's in fact an expectation

If Aniimo is free though, chill, I'll give it an honest try, same with Palworld Mobile

Palworld Mobile will definitely be free, not sure about Aniimo

Aniimo will be free iirc

I wonder if someone has mapped out an optimal path for 100% yet like the person im watching RN thats going for 100% hes making all these mistakes that are slowing him down being negligent toward his pals at the base taking on tougher things at a lower level will not craft clothes so hes not freezing to death etc

I didn’t think that. But also, this YouTuber has an audience to entertain too. The slow climb to success in this game or your average mmo isn’t the most entertaining to watch, imo. Despite that, I couldn’t see myself doing things in a rush on purpose if it also means I’m playing like the person you’re watching. I’d take several in game days just getting a food base in order

I brewed it 2 or 3 times, just to make sure I didn't put too much or too little. It just tasted burnt each time, with very little coffee taste, trying to come up with a way to describe the other taste but all I can think of to describe is like licking a burnt stick.
