    Probably not super significant, but does anyone know where the fuck the access band is in the Hicetas shipwreck in A1? I ran all over the place and couldn't find it. I imagine it's probably got to be like that one in A3 that you cutteray some random shit to find it. I did both the access panels...

    What can I say, markets can be irrational. They never should've dropped 20% from the tariffs either, but they did. Futures also generally mean fuckall in my opinion, but usually foreign markets are a decent indication.

    Seems like no one gives a shit about this Iran thing. Futures are basically flat, Japan is basically flat, China is basically flat. Hong Kong is slightly green. I'll be glad to be wrong about this one. Although I guess we can wait and see if there's any reaction from Iran.

    I mentioned in another thread I rewatched Band of Brothers a couple weeks ago. There's a guy that looks a ton like Paul Rudd in it, and it wouldn't be a shocker because even Jimmy Fallon was in that series. Turns out it's Elon Bailey, Jim in this show. I also happened to catch the tail end of...

    I'm baffled by people that pay for financial advice. If anyone knew what was going on, they'd be so incredibly rich it'd be ridiculous. It's why I laughed at Brosar's "just buy winners" approach. Like shit, I've been holding stocks that go down in value like a sucker. I can't believe no one's...

    Ah, that must've been it, cause I was definitely standing in the green shit. DD doesn't sound worth it. I mean, good for stories, but that seems pointless.

    I had looted a MK5 Rad suit and that radiation still gets to me fast. Apparently I need to go farm some agave to make iodine pills cause not sure how I'll survive otherwise.

    I mean, treasuries aren't the only kind of bonds. But personally I have 0% in bonds.

    That's a good point, but we were at that point 4 years ago and we just kept spending.

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    I almost posted a response on the first post, that I bet she was fired for drug use, and then OD'd.

    Holy shit, yeah, that was WAY out in the middle of nowhere. I get wrecks within like 200m of the little island my base is on, and even that's dicey with worm aggro. I'm 57 hours in (on two characters though) and never been eaten by the worm.

    Yeah, you can mix and match all vehicle parts. There was a long writeup on DD that basically said using a MK4 Orni with MK5 or 6 engines and wings and shit would fly way faster, and was the best way to avoid getting ganked.

    Is that possible without bankrupting the country? See the above post about how treasuries are almost at junk bond territory. Volker style rates means we're spending 50% of our budget on debt service.

    Logged on this morning to grab some granite for base building, and I'm like, "what the fuck, did someone log on super early and snag all these nodes already?" Turns out, they're not static and I guess get moved after the corialis. I think the dew and flour sand might be static, but ores not so...

    Yeah, I saw people on Reddit flipping out about how if you leave you lose everything. The hardest part is farming up that first set of shit and unlocking everything. If you start with all the crafting stuff unlocked, keep a cutterray on you and a weapon, it shouldn't take that long to get back...
