    I still don't have one. I've heard it makes Tangled Depths in HoT bearable, but other than that I haven't felt the need for it. But I think there's at least one Mastery Point that's only obtainable with the Skyscale.

    Guild Wars 2

    Honestly, aren't we all just done with the whole item +gooder stats paradigm? It's become absolutely meaningless now. I think it's always been mostly about cosmetics anyway. And GW2 has some really cool looking armor and weapons. That legendary pony-bow thing really cracks me up.

    I'm no elementalist expert, but I did level one to 80 and went Tempest following this guide: LOT of fun blowing stuff up.

    Guild Wars 2

    Maybe its just me, but I've found the elite professions (provided by the expansions) significantly more fun to play. Core professions feel kind of basic and repetitive.

    Guild Wars 2

    Vistas aren't technically "jumping puzzles", although some require a bit of skillful jumping. Actual jumping puzzles exist (usually hidden within a map) and give some kind of reward or achievement. But for zone completion you can ignore them. I recommend binding a mouse button or keypress to...

    Lovecraft Country

    Speaking of Good Times, we also had Sanford and Son and The Jeffersons -- fantastic series with all-black casts they I still enjoy today.

    I'm sure, and if it was any other moment in time I may have enjoyed it. But not right now.

    Lovecraft Country

    Read the synopsis of the book, so sure, its the theme of the book of racism in the United States during that time period. I get it, but they are truly beating a dead horse at this point. Not interested.

    No shit. I was expecting a sequel announcement. :confused:

    I mean, is this the book? Or did HBO jump the median and do their own thing?

    I aborted at the moment we had a black dude getting sucked off in the alley by another black dude. Just tired of this dumb shit.

    Difficult programming question

    Yeah, this would be super easy in .NET since, you know, it's s Microsoft product and all. C++? Good God no.

    Boy, I bet those CW writers were triggered hard by the panoramic end scene.

    Yeah, I'm not sure how to interpret the evil plan of eliminating racism and giving everyone universal healthcare. I did laugh, though.

    Let me know if there's a better place to post this... Anyone know of a way to manually clear an iPad's cache? Not the browser cache -- but the third party / system cache. My mom's iPad has a whopping 6GB of "Other" showing in the iPad storage. It sounds like this is system cache and app...

    Guild Wars 2

    I sometimes kill some time in the middle of the day and there's enough people to easily take down meta events like Tequatl, the Shatterer, Claw of Jormag, etc. Those take a reasonably healthy player count participation.

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

    My current job we work with Angular and it's not my responsibility to "make it look beautiful". The building blocks were already created by the architects so we just put them on a page and wire up the services to the backend. It's not horribly complicated but it is, in my opinion, more...

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

    If you want a job in the industry I'd go in this order: React > Angular > Vue. If you want ease of learning then go Vue. There are many other frameworks/libraries out there, of course. Probably the only other one I'd recommend would be maybe Svelte.js. That one is very similar (in structure)...

    Yeah, the two actual "expansion" packs are purchase only, but they are bundled together right now. I think I got them for $30 or so a few months back. But the episode releases are free as long as you log in around the time of their release. I think it's fair, and you don't HAVE to buy them...

    Is anyone writing plain-Jane HTML and CSS nowadays? Unless your website is really basic I would think you're using some kind of client-side framework. And those aren't dull one little bit.

    Take a look at this one: Using Vue with ASP.NET Core By Example I bought this course a year or so ago and it's pretty good. It's everything you need to know from front-end to back-end to build a website w/authentication. Since you already have some knowledge I'm thinking adapting to Vue.js...

    Unsolved Mysteries

    Other than the first episode and the UFO one, none of the other mysteries were all that 'mysterious'. Was hoping for a good ghost story at least. So, thinking about the final episode with the mother and 7 daughters -- does anyone think its fuck up that a TV show can pretty much implicate...

    I should hope the interviewer expects your code to be clear and understandable. Cramming things into 1 line probably won't achieve this.

    Dark

    Paradoxes are unavoidable if you subscribe to the idea that there's a single timeline. Which the show suggests otherwise by having multiple young Jonas's running around. However, if this was the case then Jonas and Martha wouldn't have poofed away. They would've simply created a new timeline...
