    Path of Exile 2

    Seriously, out gearing mechanics is the true endgame of poe. Which is why sprint is bullshit.

    The Drama (2026)

    Is this uncomfortable in it makes you think about taboo topics? I really liked After Life for that. Or is this uncomfortable for second-hand embarrassment? If so, no thanks, repressed memories surfacing unasked do that enough.

    Wait, what? Did they start writing Season 2 after Season 1 finished airing? Was Vince needed for every part of the process?

    Path of Exile 2

    Ah, yeah, forgot about that. I *think* that carries over league to league as I started this one quite late and I was buying stuff prior to Act 4. Either way, glad you made a choice. I sometimes find myself playing PoE2 out of boredom and getting frequently frustrated.

    Yes, trade for upgrades, those single exalts will get you significant weapon upgrades at this point in the league. They'd rather nerf the campaign than figure out how to sensibly get players loot in a loot game. And to be fair, PoE1 absolutely has the same problem. It's just heavily mitigated...

    Maybe this means they found a way to make ToTA fun.

    Stargate SG-1

    Arguably not a success. The Amazon seasons, 4-6, were worse than the Syfy seasons. But so was the source material.

    Speaking of beasts, that's one of the few mechanics from PoE1 they've not copied. :emoji_thinking:

    Not knowing what killed you is a feature. Of both games.

    You're suggesting an external Bluetooth adapter?

    Not sure I can find what I want otherwise. My noggin cracks headbands and the ear buds are for blocking noise. Is there a wired version of that?

    Headphones & Audio Devices

    Anyone use Bluetooth with windows? Specifically the AAC codec. The audio visual desync is bugging me on a product that is otherwise quite satisfactory(jlab work buds).

    Anyone know if ancestrally boosted whirling assault still targets tempest bells?

    Path of Exile 2

    No. The narrative isn't bad or poorly executed but it's definitely secondary. That said, I rarely play games for story since I think gameplay and narrative are already difficult to execute well by themselves, seamlessly integrating both is quite rare. So, I might be biased. Been playing for ten...

    The follow-up to this line of thought is how much of the 500k players are people toughing it out hoping/knowing it gets better?

    Interesting. I was considering gelatin, but xanthan gum might be better.

    Wife wanted cheesecake for her birthday. One layer was ladyfingers "soaked" in raspberry coulis. I was worried as they were stiffer than tiramisu but she said that was the point. After eating it, I want try replicating that with tiramisu. I hate how the bottom layer almost always has some sog...

    People with this attitude is the only way the past few pages of this thread make any sense when juxtaposed with the popularity of PoE2. The irony is that PoE2 is speedrunning system complexity. Far faster than PoE1 did.

    Yeah, I figured it was something with Mantra of Destruction once actually investigated your suggestion. You want to activate Manta as much as possible for the extra chaos damage, so probably automating it is the answer. Just put the delay equal to your attack delay? Though, does that mean you...

    Path of Exile 2

    I played Whirling Assault Titan last league and nothing so far has looked less gay than it. I'm actually surprised it didn't get nerfed, the screenwide coverage seems to violate their "powerful...but gay" requirement for builds. Shame I don't remember how the fuck I leveled until that point :|

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    How does that(within VSCode) work if you want to containerize Claude to have some modicum of security? BTW, the permissions you have to give Claude are fucking scary. Any other application, noping the fuck out for just 1 of those, let alone all 5.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    My boss has been using Claude Code to review MRs. He claims it's a quality add, perhaps it is, but I suspect it's more a shaming tool and he probably doesn't have time to properly review all his MRs. Whatever the actual intent, it worked, as more of us have been using the tool. I've used it a...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I realize now I was describing the suggested three videos at the of any video, not the home feed. I've never used the "New to you", didn't know it existed. Youtube sure does a good job at making their UI shit.

    You'd rather every third video be some random bullshit uploaded hours ago, blatant AI, single digit views, and completely unrelated to what you normally watch?

    I don't understand the hype for that shield or grenade launchder. The former looks like move and kill with clunk and the latter has a forced pendulum mechanic.

    Do I really have that many posts in that thread? To the contrary, I'm looking to discuss the game. Yes, my initial post was snarky, sorry. Release and previous expansions, consensus was "still not good". Seems something has changed. But, if it's still people judging on X hours of not being...
