I'm just barely hanging on. I've only been logging in to do una's and then chaos on my main. Haven't run an abyss in 2 weeks, and I'm pretty sick of running the same guardian raids over and over. Haven't been doing any of the daily content either (islands, chaos gate, bosses). Really the only...

I'm on something like 13 or 14 fails on weapon from 17 to 18. Go fuck yourself.

Well that was just fantastic. The movie felt like a love letter to Naval Aviation and the F/A-18. Makes me miss working for the program, but also a little regretful for dropping out of being a Naval aviator myself (all the way back in 2011 when I first heard the movie was in early talks...

Feel bad for @Voldeth. He's never going to get his reaper at this pace.

So probably another two weeks for Vykas, and a month and a half for Arcanist.

I worked at the end of the runway where the scene with the little building has its roof blown off (and the motorcycle rehash scene, among others). Pretty much every single day you'd be on a phone call and have to tell the person on the other end to hold for jet noise. My wife worked on the...

Got excited when I saw the description as rogue lite Peggle. Turned on a Twitch stream and it looks like...ass? The original Peggle 15 years ago looks amazing compared to this. Why would anyone pay for this?

Haven't seen the movie yet, but F/A-18 pilots (and others) definitely do fly through canyons to practice. The one near us when we were out there is called Star Wars canyon. Planes will fly from China Lake, Fallon, and Edwards to practice there. They'll fly as low as 200 ft off the ground, which...

Right, but Top Gun is a Navy school, the characters are Navy pilots, and the F-22 is an Air Force plane. There's not really a way to do that.

HSA is the ultimate savings vehicle. As long as you anticipate one day having medical expenses of some sort, it's the most tax advantageous account type that exists.

It's awful. Imagine if instead of just getting a failure on honing after +15, it dropped to +14. So you'd get enough mats to +15 again and then try for +16. Each successive hone becomes more difficult, but also every failure drops one level. It feels terrible. Worse though is accessories...

Oh, I 100% would have quit a while ago. BDO's system is what caused me to quit that one. Blowing up accessories because you failed, or losing a level on regular gear, is dog shit.

I'm getting to the point of "why?" I've started to let all my alts rested bonuses pile up because the daily content just isn't fun anymore. I've stopped doing islands because, well, the RNG on them is so piss poor I just get annoyed. Heck, I haven't even run any abyss this week. I'm almost done...

It's the only cooking show I can actually watch. US ones are full of manufactured drama or just so over the top that I can't even pay attention.

I don't really go to movies anymore, the last one being Endgame, but before that the first Star Trek remake all the way back in 2009. I was absolutely excited for this one, no doubt, due to my connections to the community, but I hadn't really planned on going to an actual theater. I figured...

Pretty much. I remember meetings probably back as far as 2015 where they expected the F/A-18's down to just one carrier squadron by 2024. Every year it'd get pushed back more. Last meetings I went to it was in the 2030s. They are up to one F-35 squadron on the carriers now though! That said...

I've never seen one. Think the best I got was one for 1k? Usually I get nothing, and maybe every 5th I get an extra 100g.

I was going to make a post that I expected today to be another 2-3% move, just wasn't sure which direction. Which is insane. You can almost count on that big a move every single day.

Due to some ungodly luck in the last week, I hit 1445 on my bard. This is after switching mains a few weeks after Argos release. I think I was at maybe 1340 - 1350 at the time. Not really sure what to do next. I could try getting my blade to 1400 (currently 1388), or go for +20 weapon on the...

I grouped for the first week or two and people in chat were talking about doing them solo. I kept running into the same problem of people being retarded, so it was a welcome relief to run them solo. Haven't grouped since.

You group them? Wtf?

Speaking of, these chaos dungeons are starting to become real ass cancer as a support. They're probably fine for dps, but I just don't put out nearly enough damage, so it's a slog trying to get through them. They've become my least favorite thing to do anymore.

Down markets don't just go red every single day. There's lots of volatility on the way down. That's what makes it so hard to time the bottom. This could mean nothing or it could be the recovery. The idea that this is short lived is kind of weird though. It's 5 months of red, culminating in a...

Wait, they haven't started shrinking their balance sheet yet? I guess I missed that. Thought they were starting in like February or March.

Spoilering the posts. They're in the Top Gun thread.

Also, on your rant, North Island 100% has a runway capable of landing a jet. Why they decided to say the Top Gun school was there, I don't know, but it's definitely feasible.

It's CGI fuckery, because it was a Blue Angels jet. I'm also not 100% sure I buy this idea that it blew over the building. I honestly don't remember that well, but I remember a building being there multiple days. Whether or not that was pre or post this shot I can't recall. I will say they flew...

Edit: Nevermind, too political for this thread.

Yeah, I'm starting to sour on this show a bit. Everything with Sally and that stupid little girl is awful. The Noho stuff is kind of becoming Flanderized. Barry (and Cousineau) is a bit hit or miss right now, but the tone isn't funny anymore.

Yeah, there's no way that's the bottom. This is going to be a long painful grind downwards from what it looks like.

I really hope this raid is as fun as everyone is making it sound. I'd also like to know what all this GvG shit is. But yeah, it's getting old just pissing an entire week of materials on hones and you make zero progress. Two days ago I found myself just not even caring enough to log in for...

I said it a few weeks ago, but there's literally no good news about the economy, heck, maybe about anything, coming out lately. I mean, what exactly is going to make the market turn around all the sudden? As @Furry said, the only possibility might be inflation running so hot that dollars become...

We've officially crossed the 20% mark in the S&P. Fun times.

Not that I've played much so far, but I'm enjoying destroyer pretty well. Most classes I kind of loathe at t2, but this one seems fun.

This is a two person race, and Titan thought we were playing by Price is Right rules.

Not that 25.5 was a great number or anything, but uh, yeah... Today seems to prove my point that it's a worthless "metric" anymore (or the people buying VIX options are colossal fucking morons).

Also things are a lot different when the government hasn't forced all your competitors to close. And you market tranny underwear to kids (although I know that hasn't impacted these previous quarter numbers).
