The reason many of them (a charging brand like anker for example) do this is to get name recognition. If you see their name in 200 sponsors, and a year later you are looking for a charger, you see a familiar name in those 50 brands when you want to buy one, and subconsciously you trust it more than the brands you haven’t heard about.

They could have changed the effect of the spell from being spread to just being blank, but during that time people would kill the now super nerfed boss easily, basically exploiting the fact that it is disabled.

They probably thought that “this will pass, no need to risk players exploiting just because some low levels die a few times”, and therefore didn’t do that.

There is no easy way to add that location check on to the spell itself, so it would have to be a custom c++ code written for it, which requires way more publishing approval than changing the spell (sql). This would also require downtime for each server to apply the core code changes, and maintenence etc, which they used to have one day a week, and for planned things.

Once they had that code in place though they made pets immune, but too many players had lost a lot of gold in repairs etc, and the rest of the game lacked players due to fear, that rolling back was the easiest way to earn back approval of players.

Spell fixes required a server reset, yes. That was still a thing until Legion or something. Definitely a thing in wotlk client.

That’s how the spells work in wow. The BUFF would get removed if you left the room, but the issue was that pets would get it in the room and resummoned in cities, and since the buff removal thing happened while the pet was desummoned the removal didn’t apply.

Doing a check each time the buff spreads is inefficient use of server.

Also, changing anything about the spell requires servers to be shut down, and they didn’t want that for each fix attempt until they saw no other way and had roll back the servers.

She’s only asking how to pit the but in the drill because it didn’t go well when she tried and fucked up the drill.

I do that because of the consistency difference between the huge pieces of crunchy onion and the smooth meat and mushy rice. If the onion is caramelised or cut to a mush, or onion powder I don’t mind it.

The transcript says that he tried to access tor but couldn’t, so he downloaded spice right after, and then the monitoring program showed no activity after that. And because of that he got denied release.

You have 3 wishes.

First wish: I wish my last wish would count as me consuming two wishes. Second wish: I wish to have 0 wishes remaining.

First wish puts you down one wish, so ending at 2. Second wish removes one wish, so at one, then wish happens putting you at 0,

then because this second wish now becomes your last, as you have 0 remaining, the first wish then takes effect and consumes another wish, putting you to - 1 and overflowing.

I don’t have the app, and searching for “gemini” only gives “gemini settings” which when clicked opens the promt of “do you accept changing Google assistant to gemini”, clicking “not now” just sends me back to setting search.

Just cut it down. /s

Then you are just doing it wrong. Bread goes stale faster in the fridge due to easier crystallization
