    The Astronomy Thread

    Not sure if you are specifically replying to the "ancestors of Americans" or just in general, but the "driven by one thing: resources" certainly doesn't apply to a decent amount of the English coming to the new world. A large subsection of them were primarily fleeing religious persecutions by...

    Project Triune (NMS) (Not THJ we swear)

    May be too late, but for poison, you just make Anger of Shissar (all mats on vendor in Baz) until the level 65 one goes green. For everything else I think I followed EQProgress guide or cobbled something together from the "old" guides on EQTraders. The MQ program (autocombat) should have an...

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Reading about his death made me want to revisit the collections of posts on a survival forum of the dude who lived through the Siege of Sarajevo. Looks like he wrote a few books about it too (LINK). Wonder if it rehashes the posts he made or if it goes into other things.

    The Astronomy Thread

    How long can a nuclear plant generator run without a complete overhaul? How long before "things like the engine block will have to be replaced"? It's not going to be two stroke engines and pickem-up trucks running things... Yall are acting like if humans can't do it tomorrow, it can never get...

    The Astronomy Thread

    Meh, how is this really any different than current people living on the current ship (earth) traveling through space? Life is what you make it. Humans adapt to their situation and their outlook depends on how they are indoctrinated & educated. As for stories about what living on a planet was...

    Everquest Legends

    Buying reviews isn't an industry standard? Come on now. Promoting honest game journalism has never been an industry standard, going all the way back through print media.

    Project Triune (NMS) (Not THJ we swear)

    Yeah, Wiz made SK and Rogue spells/poisons do monster crits/dmg and 100% crit rate while in Prolonged Destruction and the other "Destruction" AA. The procs also didnt use charges of those AA, so you hard cast Wiz spells until the buff had 1 charge left and then let it time out. It was a bit...

    Geology, Earthquakes and Volcanos

    Yar, this year has been slightly above average so far. Quake swarms/chains happen as the larger quakes will add energy to other faults as the waves travel through the earth, causing the ones that are close, on their own, to slip soon-ish. USGS didn't have 2022+ in an easy to reference...

    SSF would need to be able to kill Naggy/Vox before being able to do epic quest. Also, I don't remember if Najena even had a personal instance spawner. I think there were a few Kunark zones that were tied to various epics that didn't, but cant remember which.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I continually get Chargers and Challengers mixed up on which one is the Jogger car on 30 inch rims, so I go to look up this Charger EV and what the fuck is this faggot shit: Oh right, it was the Challenger that was the nice looking one and the Charger was the one that became the ghetto ass...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    After watching the Fallow video, I don't see how you get away babysitting the stock and skimming off the fats if you want the best stock/broth you can get.

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    If you have a big pot already, I'd try to just make stocks the old fashion way instead of buying a pressure cooker just to cook stocks that you don't even know if they are going to taste better. Plus, a bigger pot would cook much more than the smaller instapot, which you can then freeze and have...

    Everquest Legends

    Had almost the same experience as SK/Rog/Wiz with starting in Velious and needing to grind out a bunch of shit to get to Sleeper (even with Janx helping out with SK & Rog epics and showing the ropes to jump in a bit faster). Was able to get BiS gear by the end of Velious and then Luclin (outside...
