The trouble is, the experiences are some what mutually exclusive. It's hard to have a game that allows both SSF and min/maxing, trading players to have a comparable experience. You basically end up with balance points where either SSF players effectiveley never get to attain certain items, or...

Just eyeballing some numbers, it looks like this flight will cost 1/25 of the Apollo program (adjusted for inflation). Of course they're not landing and I don't know how much of SpaceX's sunk engineering costs are included in the alleged $5B price tag, but it's still pretty awesome to see this...

I feel like RNG on top of that level of specificity in item requirement is bad game design. It's false longevity by pushing players into an obnoxious economic metagame. I'd much rather have higher drop rates and have it possible for a single player to "win". It's ok if a game doesn't offer...

Unexpected drops encourage trying different classes/builds (at least if the itemization is good and drop rate high enough). I don't mind that at all. I'd rather have that than trading. Trading never feels as rewarding as getting the gear yourself.

How finished is this in its present state? I've been holding off on the assumption that the the game is going to be different in the future, I'm unlikely to play it twice, and I want to experience the "right" version.

What does this have to do with Conor? He's obviously taking all the PEDs he can to recover from his leg break. We're talking about Jiri here.

Literally none of that is inferable from what I or the UFC said. Edit: It's not always up to the fighter. The UFC has retired several fighters who would have otherwise kept competing, and that was the right call.

I've seen it. We don't have sufficient information to evaluate that statement, and even if we did there's certainly some hyperbole and mistranslation going on there. Dana is paraphrasing a doctor, and he's not a man prone to excess precision with his words. I doubt any doctor has been present...

He contracted his biceps and apparently put on a jacket (which you can do without articulating your shoulder). Must be a scam.

That'll be the price when Tesla buys Activision after Microsoft is denied. Then the COD engine will be integrated into Autopilot in order to complement Musk's new line of hood-mounted flamethrowers.

When YouTube enables an adult 12 year old to finance their stupidest dreams:

My dad had the same thing on his back a few weeks ago. Fortunately, the excision had clear margins and no further treatment is expected. Hopefully the same is true for you. Catching it early is key; glad you did. My dad and grandfather both had prostate cancer and my mom died of combined...

My kids (7, 10) have been sick maybe three times each this year. We keep them out 24-48 hours after fevers stop or if they're coughing constantly, but otherwise send them in. If we kept them home for a slight runny nose or intermittent cough they'd be out for weeks at a time. I'm not sure my...

Second one is a complaint I don't really get. I've seen lots of coverage of "OMG these AIs are reproducing people's art styles without permission!" Sure, just like every other human artist ever. Why does it matter if the derivative work is done with a neural net instead of a monkey with a pencil?

"Older?" She's 34 in this picture. Barely older than Tits McLips in Sanrith's posts. I thought about posting a GIS for "older bikini" but immediately regretted looking at the results. Take this one for "best dog" instead:

Your recent platform aligned with my interests enough to get me to read your post, but then you failed to deliver the goods. Typical politician. Leave it to the people to get it right...

That's quite the mindfuck given that it's still just statistical extrapolation. It's capable of all that but can't even tell you the current time. I'd bet that on closer examination it's not hard to get nonsensical results, but that's still impressive as hell. I can't imagine the future is far...

There is similar accelerating progress in GPT chat bots. Once they can maintain internal dialogue history the entertainment world is going to change very quickly. Custom books and TV shows generated on the fly, tailored to your personal tastes with interactive feedback, infinite but consistently...

Another step, now producing a full, textured 3d mesh and a latent space that allows for morphing the results into adjacent possibilities. Pretty wild shit. This tech is going to be crazy with a few years more development.

Those injuries aren't recent. You can only drain cauliflower ear in the first 2-3 days, a week absolute tops before it calcifies. He'd need fairly elaborate plastic surgery to fix that.

Maybe he was just planning ahead. He's probably only lower middle class now. He's supposedly down to $100k in his checking account or so.

I had to give up caffeine entirely. Even if I only drink in the morning (before 9AM) and can't feel it by the evening I invariably lose about an hour of sleep on caffeinated days. 11PM rolls up and I'm just not tired and read or whatever for another hour. If I don't have coffee, I start to get...

Similar problems for a while. Basically all this, plus regular exercise made a huge difference. The importance of hydration, both on sleep and my joint pain, was a surprise to me. I'm one of those people whose bodies confuses thirst with hunger and I tend to snack when I should hydrate. Being...

Yeah, 99% this is some kind of mechanical failure of the meniscus, probably combined with bone spurs. I've had six knee surgeries across both knees for sports-induced traumatic meniscus damage and this is exactly what it feels like. My right knee currently has an open 1cm tear in the cartilage...

Also: And:

It's potentially valid to use "lay" in this case if you consider the full statement to be "The dog is sitting/standing/laying himself on the couch/floor/table", as "lay" is verb that requires an object.

Man up and get a hand plane and some winding sticks.

No, but for whatever reason this game seems to take upwards of a minute to register my controller when I first play. Once it finally realizes what is plugged in then everything is fine.

This sounds like a great way to get fired given the steps your work IT department already takes to limit resource use.

Makes sense. As far as the biome level, I just tested in an old world with previously discovered mistlands and it looks like it works fine except some trees bumped around when I first walked up.

I've seen video of people visiting previously discovered Mistlands. It should update to the new content, but the geometry can be slightly different and could leave hanging or bury existing structures. If you've never visited before you should be all good even in a legacy world. As far as I've...

Pull up the shingles and flashing and fix the shit job the previous guy did. Every house I've lived in at one point or other I had leak problems, got a reliable guy up there, and his first comment was, "What moron did this?" And no, he wasn't just talking shit because the leaks stopped by after...

Dunno. I've done that and regretted it. Caulking will work a few months until it doesn't, and then then you're in the same spot but permanently paranoid about it. I'd rather spend the money to have it fixed right and not be looking at rot repair in a few years.

That might work if the problem is just a hole from a popped nail or something. In my experience, though, it's almost always badly installed flashing. IMO, if you can't see an immediate source it's worth getting a competent pro up there.

Yeah, the idea that this is a cover-up for a failed test is kinda goofy. Allowing that would destroy USADA as an oganization. They have no incentive to cooperate. I'll grant that he didn't seem like a guy who suffered "the worst shoulder injury the doctors have seen in UFC history", but we...

Yeah, ages ago. I've been play through with my son in prep for the new release. I figured out what the issue is. In the new version Ymir flesh doesn't unlock until you defeat Bonemass. We'd hit kid of a corner case where my son was making an iron sledge, then we updated, then he couldn't...

New additions look great, though it will be a bit to experience fully as I'm just at the plains in my playthrough with my kids. Has anyone on the public test noticed that the trader doesn't seem to sell Ymir Flesh any more? Is this intentional, or a bug on my end?

Yup. Link will go live on Tuesday.
