so again the bead chain for my necklace broke. this time rather than getting another clip i thought to see if i had any spare chains which are the same length which are "patched" and found 2 which had a clip on it already
looks neater now. should look up where i can get some more instead of relying on taking them off clothing tags

Yaaaay Norbert is home from his dental surgery and is being all cuddly and they gave me the teeth they extracted in a jar :p
If you ever want to complain about your job on a podcast and also Columbus local radio check out street fight on Sundays, they also do an ABCD (anyone but cis dudes) show every now and then too
I'm trying to make a function, that when run, swaps the teams of two armor stands. I have this code written in a function on a repeating command block to set up the swap function, and the "less_num1" is the function that is supposed to swap them.
Set-up code:

I recently found out about the official PS4 Remote Play application for Windows. Sadly, I don't have a separate DualShock 4 to use by another player from the Windows PC so I was thinking:
Is Possible to use a 3rd Party Controller? (Xbox 360/One)
What about previous generation DualShock? (PS2 vi...
After asking a question where I used the remote-play tag, I was a bit worried that it might get edited and removed. The reason is that "remote play" sounds like a generic term (the act of playing a game remotely, via LAN/WAN or the Internet).
After looking at the questions that are using this ta...
I'm making a goldfarm in minecraft. I'm making an automatic collection system. I have a hopper minecart run in an unloading loop.
I have an issue with the unloading loop. I want to use the same hopper mine-cart to collect and unload the items. I need a way to keep the cart in the unload loop unt...
> October 31st wasn’t actually Brexit Day, that’s just when believers in Brexit chose to celebrate it, coopting the date of an existing pagan festival. Historians and theologians don’t really know exactly when it happened.
In-gamewise, there's no indicator of what the Secret Triumph is. There is a Secret Triumph, although both the objective and reward are hidden. However, using a tool like Braytech or Destiny Tracker shows what appears to be the actual triumph:
Now according to this, the secret triumph requires ...
In the lastest draw I managed to get my first EX Weapon for Cloud. Which adds the Meteorain ability.
When I go into battle the ability never highlights as usable. You can see an example in the attached image, where the ability is shown in dark red. Tapping this does nothing.
How can I use thi...

I was poking around a few older questions, and I came to this question. This question appeared in the linked questions menu, so I clicked on to see what it was.
After viewing the question, I saw a comment with a link to the original question on an answer that has since been deleted due to being...
@Unionhawk People are talking about the lack of hacking and/or lockpicking minigames in TOW and I just feel... Why? Why do you want a minigame? Either the minigame is skillbased like the Oblivion lockpicking and the skill is effectively useless for good players, or the minigame is RNG based like the Skyrim one and you're just frustrated at losing lockpicks because you started on the wrong side of the bar.
Or the minigame is just a puzzle like the Fallout 3 hacking minigame and players like me who have no interest in solving mastermind-like puzzles can't even work around it by installing a mod that will tell you what to do.
@Unionhawk If everyone had monochromacy, then Fire Emblem Awakening wouldn't work at all because that game doesn't make sense without divergent timelines.
@Unionhawk As a colour blind person, I appreciate this. I also didn't even realize they did this, because I never felt the need to look for a colour blind option. Good job.
Lotteries have been described as a "tax on the stupid", I would say it's more accurate to call it a tax on the math illiterate but the original gets the point across... crudely
@Yuuki People who understand this aren't the problem with gambling. People that just view gambling as a form of entertainment you should make a budget restriction for rather than viewing it as a way to make money generally don't suffer many of the problematic gambling addiction symptoms like not being able to stop when your budget is done or using your earnings to increase your budget
@Yuuki but the main source of funding is not the $5 every now and then player, it's the addict who is targeted directly, and there's lots of data to back this up see above
e.g. lotteries usually foster some concept of having 'your numbers' - the same numbers you play every game. If you do this it's very hard to stop playing because what if your numbers come up the week you don't play
@Nzall You can't make a living from gambling, except for maybe poker. There's a lot of psychology too. Near misses are more effective at getting people addicted than wins.
> For example, the state of Ohio hired a marketing firm to promote their SuperLotto game and in their internal collateral they said that advertisements should coincide with the receipt of “Government benefits, payroll and social security payments.”
@fredley I mean, going just by money in and money out, you can't make a living from gambling. But I knew a person whose parents who were basically paid to go gambling, compensation for pretty much everything and the casino even gave them chips to gamble with. Though that was because they usually brought a crowd of people with them, so the whole thing's predatory: someone's going to be losing money.
Also, blackjack is one of those games you can reliably win, although casinos watch blackjack tables a lot harder than poker.
@Yuuki Nah pretty sure the odds are still stacked in favour of the house (since the house always wins in a draw) so as long as you're playing a skilled dealer you'd still expect to lose.
@Yuuki So essentially the CSGO Lotto thing where a couple of people were gambling on their own site while encouraging loads of minors and vulns to go to that site and gamble their own money?
When the dealer has served every player, the dealers face-down card is turned up. If the total is 17 or more, it must stand. If the total is 16 or under, they must take a card. The dealer must continue to take cards until the total is 17 or more, at which point the dealer must stand. If the dealer has an ace, and counting it as 11 would bring the total to 17 or more (but not over 21), the dealer must count the ace as 11 and stand.
tl;dr it's a lot simpler and cheaper to just have a security camera and beat up people who you think are counting instead of coming up with ways to prevent the counters from getting an advantage
They do the numbers extensively on this sort of thing, that's literally how they make their money.
And yet counting is still viable and they still watch out for it, even when you can easily prevent 100% of counting by shuffling a new deck after every deal. So obviously that strategy isn't used for one reason or another.
Yesterday I decided to change my skin so i made a custom skin and uploaded the file and changed it and it said that it was changed however, I logged on and decided to go on Hypixel. When I got on I couldn't see my skin so I waited for it to load but it wouldn't show, I looked around and saw that...
@fredley I know this is old topic now, but I just wanted to add that letting the players think they can outsmart the casino is going to attract more players. If you can't come up with any strategy to win, you're less likely to try
> The game is currently available on PS4, Xbox One and PC, though there is no crossplay at the time of writing (Aug 21, 2019). This means you'll have to stick to the player pool for the platform you're on.
@Wrigglenite OK, that's actually plausible, but I would bet against it. It's much more likely just the standard people parroting outdated criticisms of languages they aren't very familiar with
They announced a relatively high-level reorg at work today, dividing a bunch of teams into two organizations, and the dividing line goes right through the middle of my team. So, we're going to be two teams, with two different reporting chains
I mean, not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but have you ever seen @murgatroid99 and his evil doppleganger in the same room? I bet you haven't, because they're the same person!
went out trick or treating with wife and daughter, went to this church lady's house who was part of my daughter's christening, she hadn't seen us since then (almost a year). She asked if I was [my legal name]'s sister 😮I kinda just froze and my wife told her who I was. The lady apologized 😔
