One of the bloodiest battles in the area since Aegon's destruction of Harrenhal. More than two thirds of the men who rode south with Roddy the Ruin were either dead or wounded, and the Lannister forces were decimated in the thousands, and the death of Jason Lannister. It explains why both the Lannisters and the Winter Wolves are so depleted by the time we see them later in the season; most of the Wolves were effectively spent by their first appearance.

There has been no mention of Kermit or Benjicot. It would be crazy if the show leaves out "The Lads" entirely, considering they were the primary fighting force for the foot soldiers and served as the backbone of the war effort throughout the conflict. They are also some of the coolest characters of the whole damn war.

There's a whole subtle war going on between the Blackwoods and Brackens that the show hasn't even acknowledged outside of that one scene in season 2. The Dance was just another convenient excuse for these two houses to kill each other.

I’m looking to streamline my phone by disabling redundant AI assistants. Between Bixby, Gemini, Samsung/Galaxy AI, and Google Assistant, is there one that effectively covers the functions of the others? I'm confused about the differences.

There is a lot of overlap, both Bixby and Gemini offer voice and chatbot capabilities, so I dont know why there's Gemini if Bixby does the same thing or vice versa. I want to identify the most versatile option so I can remove or disable the rest. What is the best setup for an all-in-one assistant experience on a Samsung device?

I like when shows incorporate real world things into the dialogue. The scene where the kid tell Reacher about what OnlyFans was. Reacher’s complete ignorance of what he was talking about, followed by his disappointment when he finds out, was hilarious. Then he gets in the car and tells the lady cop, “Society has gone to shit.” lol

Then there’s the scene where he talks to Sampson, and Sampson says, “We’ve elected presidents with sex scandals in the past. Nobody seems to care about that anymore.” I like moments like these because they bring real world scenarios into the story without feeling forced.

I usually use my car's base OS because AA has such poor customization or functionality to me. I can't watch videos, access the app store, set animated wallpapers, etc. Am I doing something wrong, or is it just this poor? Apple CarPlay seems to be more customizable from stuff I've seen online.

For some stupid reason, Aegon (not that one, the other one) is like 3 years old in the show instead of around 10, and he’s basically absent for most of the story. What I don’t understand is how they’re planning to handle Rhaenyra’s death if Aegon isn’t old enough and it's there. It would be awward with him not there or him there as a toddler...

Him being there to witness Rhaenyra’s death is one of the major things that shapes his character as an adult. Not having him not there is dumb and completely destroyes the lore of the what happens in the near future right at the end of the war.

Joffrey and Aegon should have been present during Rhaenyra's coronation. Joffrey dies during the Dragonpit storm, Rhaenyra and Aegon escape to Dragonstone, then Rhaenyra dies... no idea why this was changed.

That’s why aging him down this much makes me wonder what the plan actually is. it makes me think they might be planning to skip Hour of the Wolf and pretty much everything that happens after Aegon II death. Jaehaera is also basically absent so it makes even more sense that they're skipping later content. I could see the show jumping straight from the end of the Dance to Aegon’s poisoning and using that as the finale.

Grey Knights, to my knowledge, are the pinnacle of what a psyker can be for humanity outside of a Primarch or the Emperor. So how were the Space Wolves able to run through them? I'm aware that the Space Wolves also took losses. Logan killed two high-ranking Grey Knights. These are the same guys that fight whatever comes through the warp.

You would think they would just explode all Space Wolves' ships or use mind control or something.

The car market has gotten boring. Everything is an SUV now. I'm aware that the market is mostly looking for SUVs now, but I don't want an SUV. I don't have kids...I mainly like coupes...That's all I've ever owned, and that's what I'm interested in. It feels like every manufacturer wants to build another oversized crossover instead of something that's actually fun to drive or sporty that's AFFORDABLE.

I keep up with car news, and every time a new model is announced it's either another SUV or some six figure halo coupe/sedan that 99% of people can't afford.

Mercedes only has a few coupes left, and only one is even remotely affordable. BMW still makes coupes and sadans, but prices have gotten ridiculous. An M2 is $80,000, a 240I is around $60,000. That doesn't give me much confidence that future coupes will be any more affordable.

Challenger and Charger? - Gone, Dodge is just making the shitty new charger that nobody is buying because its cost 60k+ and has no V8.

Mustang? A GT with good options is $60k plus.

Chevy? The C8, which was originally pitched as a crazy car for a starting price under $60k, is now $80k+.

Audi? No coupes, expensive sedans.

Etc., etc.

I just want more sporty, fun, cool sedans/coupes in the under six figure range. I don't want to drive a Honda, Toyota, etc. I want a BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Jaguar, etc.

We know Ciri goes through an " altered " version of the trials in W4. What do you think that looks like using the knowledge we have about the series? I know Geralt had extra mutations, but what do you think Ciri could be missing or have compared to a normal Witcher?

I'm using Tutorials Dojo and Microsoft Learn to study for the exam, but there are so many minor details to remember. I'm a bad test taker.

I've worked with Azure daily for a little over a year. If there's something I don't know, I just look it up. That's what I don't like about these exams..they ask you to memorize things that you don't really need to know off the top of your head.

There are around 140 different Microsoft Entra ID roles, most I've never even heard of. Then there are all the different group types, license types, data storage, replication, etc

I passed the AWS Solutions Architect Associate exam on my first attempt. AWS gives its services stupid names, but the actual exam was easier than the practice exams. Microsoft has less confusing service names, but there's so much more information about licensing, Microsoft 365, and other products because everything ties together. I've read the Microsoft exam is harder than the practice test.

Does anyone have any tips for retaining all of this information?

A friend of mine mentioned that she wants a Garmin watch. I don't know which model it is, but she said it's around $400–600 and has GPS with something like 19 days of battery life. She mainly walks, runs, and hikes.

I was thinking about buying her one, but I'm not looking to spend that much. I've noticed some models are 40-47mm, which seems a little large for most women.

Can anyone recommend a Garmin model that would be a good fit? I'm open to spending up to $300, but I don't want to buy something she won't use or won't actually want.

The other thing is, I'm not sure if she really needs the specific watch she mentioned. From what I've seen, it seems like most Garmin watches have the GPS and fitness features she described. Am I missing something? I'd appreciate any recommendations or guidance on which model would be the best value.

I think its a case of " I like this watch I want it " over " I need this specific garmin watch ".

I’m currently studying for the AZ-104 using Tutorials Dojo practice exams, but I’m really struggling with the networking section. The questions are overwhelmingly long, and I lose track of the details while trying to work through the scenarios. I’m finding it difficult to memorize the minor service specific details that feel like things I would simply look up in a real world work environment.

Does anyone have tips or strategies for these long networking questions or advice on how to better retain these specific technical details for the exam?

Why are Dreadnoughts rarely deployed despite the Imperium being in a state of constant, desperate war for 10,000 years? Given that Space Marines are increasingly difficult to replace, it seems odd to lose them in standard combat rather than utilizing veterans like Bjorn more frequently. Is there a specific lore reason why the Imperium prefers to risk losing active Marines instead of relying more heavily on Dreadnoughts?

Between the Tyranids and the throne, it seems like the end will be caused by one of them. There's a megaton of Tyranids not even in the galaxy and only two primarchs around, and the one person who may know how to fix things is sitting on a throne to keep a portal to hell closed. If he sits there, humanity just dies to Tyranids, but if he gets up, it's daemons instead.

Are the Imperium (Guilliman) truly believing this can be fixed, or are they just trying to go on as long as possible?
