WTF? Anemos is hectic, but still fun. Did you try to group up with other newbs huddling together in CL groups? You could prolly find someone with a spot in their car to drive you around with the nm train and get past Anemos super quickly now.

Dude you're seriously missing out. I dunno if they'll EVER do anything like BA----it's a fucking unicorn. It's not that hard, it's basically tuned AROUND the whole no-rezzing thing and all the folks who organize it on the discord have the patience of OSHA safety engineers. It's actually...

You missed the screenshot with your char on your Ozma mount!

I can't imagine a group of people more deserving of acute radiation sickness.

Years ago, I got roped into a private fund that started out investing in stuff like fish farms for Australian Barramundi or Chilean Sea Bass... but lately their research nerds have been spamming the mailing list with robotics/AI and vertical farming stuff. And they have a particular hardon for...

It's a true story. The guy was a Yale-educated doctor who volunteered for the Union Army during the civil war.....then he promptly went through the Wilderness campaign and had to go from a life of absolute luxury to deciding which dying boys should get their limbs amputated or which ones should...

The eldercare application will prolly be closer to telepresence/telemedicine though. They could deploy spot mini's equipped with cameras and able to open doors and traverse into narrow hallways and then double up as a telepresence client for the nursing staff to check on older folks or watch...

They're selling it to OEMs really, they'll be modding it for specific applications. Softbank's ownership means it'll get past some of the "not invented here" stigma that most Japanese vendors still harbor and it may get into the most aggressive automation market in the world. Could see a...

Should prolly spend some time unlocking and playing through the Crystal Tower raid content before the xpac if you haven't already. It's basically the basis of Shadowbringers.

LOL I haven't really played it much, was joking. Although from what I've seen in a few Let's Plays they memed the fact that biggest mistakes you could make are in the early game where most the trips were to deliver and support unmanned construction.

Well if it's anything like my Surviving Mars playthroughs, the first twenty trips or so will be full of nothing but polymers, lithium, ceramics and a shitton of replacement construction drones. Also a fun and relatively meaty comparison of contemporary rocket engine types and their fuel...

Eureka is pretty much the closest thing you'll get to a modern Everquest-like MMO experience with "encouraged" grouping, deadly zones that makes you clench up just crossing from point A to point B and a sense of satisfaction once you've outgrown them.

I really hope they expand Eureka's game design to the broader world in the future or make a similar zone available in parallel. The regular overworld and roulette spamming is just discouragingly boring after Eureka/BA.

You failed to evade Darwin (255).

The class blues is a coffer reward for finishing the level 60 class quest IIRC. I don't think you get anything free mailed to you per se, aside from special event costumes.

60 gets you a coffer of the class set but you'll want to farm allagan tokens for the shire armor set.

I mean... did it precede all the anime that were based on playing/living/based on RPG gaming? I don't doubt that the Russians are all over litrpg stuff, but it seems like manga and anime have been doing the same themes since the mid-90's.

I think ep 5 should be about Legasov going to Vienna and outting the Soviet cover-ups...the shitshow he gets from that and how Chernobyl whistle-blowers like him ironically led to Gorbachev accelerating Glasnost which eventually ended the cold war. But not before Legasov killed himself. I...

The new shelter is more permanent. The old sarcophagus was designed to last AT LEAST 30 years for one specific reason: the half-life of Caesium-137, which is where much of the airborne contamination came from is 30ish years. The area's not fatal but still not THAT safe. The soviets...

The new confinement shelter has been rolled into place. They're finishing the airtight seals before decommissioning the OLD sarcophagus that was finished in the early 90's. The old sarcophagus was designed to last 30 years. It's close but most of the work is done. The new shelter is like...

Also Fusion. The stellerator at the Wendelstein 7-X fusion experiment is basically a nested mobius torus:

It was only ever 5 episodes, it's a miniseries. "cancelling" it just means not airing the finale which they already paid for with Sky UK, who co-produced it. It's also got the best score in IMDB history. Whoever said it was cancelled trolled you.

Jesus....all those dicks I've chopped...

How's that work? Is it just free promote his other books or does it become locked after the free period or...?

They will need to keep at least 4,445 starlinks in orbit in six years to keep their FCC license. That’s a total of 74 launches in six years....which is something like a launch every 4.3 weeks. Thing is at the reduced 550km orbits, about a fifth of the starlinks will deorbit after only a year...

is that crazy clown their mascot tho?

The Aethyr BA discord is still pretty active. They still have morning, noon and a couple primetime pickup raids usually. Since most picky people would sign up for scheduled raids, I'd say there's another 2/3 full runs a day. As for non-BA stuff on the PF, I still see some practice runs for...

This is fucking amazing. Way more energy efficient than bipeds and a whole order of magnitude more efficient than quadrocopters. Probably a generation or two from being more efficient than wheeled robots but they're already more mobile: Now put a 1-pound semtex charge on it and you got a...

In the beginning people were saying yoshi was dating that translator. He did not look amused.

Actuarially, you're like a gorillion times more likely to die as a fossil-fuel worker than in the nuclear power industry. That's just a fact. And it's not even close AT ALL. The nuclear accidents get a ton more press because they're scarier, but we measure deaths in the coal industry by the...

Contaminated water is mostly fatal if ingested (or inhaled). But then it's pretty fatal. Otherwise prolonged exposure increases cancer risk and birth deformities mostly. So long as you don't have irradiated material INSIDE your body blasting cells apart until it leaves, you can mitigate the...

BD's Handle robot has suction cups. Not for the application you're thinking of but it seems a lot more mature than the Digit-1 bot Ford used in that promo video.

they should be streaming that too

er..

Something tells me to wait to log in a week after the expansion release. At minimum.

Sounds meh. Prolly gonna be some blinged out tourist thing with LED display walls and shit then. In other news, Ford's recent layoffs is actually related to a long-term transition to self-driving vehicles with a particular focus on leveraging Ford's advantage in fleet sales. One of the things...

Can't be much of a tunnel.... is it just up and down the strip?

They had titles. Sam Tarly is the Lord of Horn hill and Bran is Lord of Winterfell and Brienne is Lady of Tarth. Presumably that's why they were sitting there.

All those people are either current lords or the last legitimate heirs of current lords. There's a scene in Joffrey's wedding where Cersei tells Brienne that as her father's daughter Brienne is a Lady of the Realm whether she wants to be or not.

Well in some states he'd just fucking shoot you in the face so yeah.
