    The Expanse

    Glad they mostly copied the fight between the Rocinante and Pella. Outsmarting the nav computer that's dodging your railgun seems like it would make a better moment than a lazy pilot though. In the book, Amos grilled Holden about deactivating the torpedo. Amos understood why he did it but...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    That's not what I said. Builds and Paragon in D3 are not complex enough for a soft cap, as the game exists right now, to become interesting. The opportunity costs in PoE's passive skill "tree" is what makes PoB more interesting than PoE. D3 doesn't have that, that's why they need to start...

    That would make for an awkward Christmas next year.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    There's quite a lot that should be copied from PoE and other games. Copying and refining is what Blizzard used to do best and they're actually at a place in the ARPG market where they're not the leader. If they can manage to refine PoEs passive skill tree so it's not so initially daunting while...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Opting out of the political forum because I'm tired of that shit. Then the political forum shows up irl and the argumentative part of me can't just fucking stay out of it instead sticking to talking about surface level shit like movies or whatever. Part of me is rustled because some of my...

    IDK, that last one seems borderline.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    The Schlotrix might actually be worthwhile, if only to see Mike from RLM review it with the Mr. Plinkett character.

    Some people watch TLJ for the same reason.

    Path of Exile

    Kinda don't care about MTX after a certain point. Would prefer support could be better targeted. Div cards like that, but the entry point was way too high. And AFAIK, they're no longer doing them.

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

    I wonder how many vulnerabilities are left and how spaced out they will be to fuck with everyone's holiday.

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I think trying to understand magic and power in Malazan beyond the abstract concept is an exercise in futility. Nor do I think that's necessary in order to comprehend the stakes and appreciate the narrative.

    Path of Exile

    I guess my question was trying to imply: is Scourge IIR/IIQ really that much of a difference without the juice you can only easily get from trade? And maybe it does. And maybe for every aspect of a build that they "SSF enabled", they tossed another part on the "trade only" with the super rare...

    Path of Exile

    How long would it have taken if you had to gear yourself and didn't buy any scarabs nor sextants? I'm assuming nem3 farming requires buying sextants.

    Yes. But lots of people are weird.

    Path of Exile

    Scourge implementation was too rough for me to enjoy. Extra monsters that would often lead to clunky map clearing. Especially if your map had low density at the start combined with no map overlay of where you've cleared Scourge. The realization that the IIQ and IIR was only rewarding if you...

    The Expanse

    My brother mentioned that perhaps the viewing experience is better without having read the books. I have(read the books), he hasn't. He might have a point. But I'm still not sure it redeems the recent seasons.

    Path of Exile

    You get certain amount of XP from each reinforcement spawn point. After that, you get nothing. This was their creative fix to tunnel and repository leveling.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    What are some of the things you're passionate about experiencing in life? Personally, it helps a lot to see something in action as a sort of organic motivator. A colleague was recently promoted, much deserved, but now it's got me thinking about progressing my career when I had been complacent...

    The Expanse

    Not sure why they didn't do the Azure Dragon like in the books. The rail gun was plan A in the books, making it look real stupid explicitly not using it in the show. Was really looking forward to Amos vs mechs too. Rocinante crew being snippy with Bobbie is out of character and going to look...

    Please clarify. I wouldn't expect "increased chaos damage" to effect it anyway.

    Wanted to try a build with Blackflame. Poe.ninja says it's 10's of chaos, cool. Get build to maps, it's being price fixed at 6+ ex. REEEEEEE.

    Gifts for people that have everything.

    Trader Joe's stocks these from time to time. For a mass produced product, they are indeed quite good. Given the shape and size of the pastry, I'm very surprised it isn't mangled by shipping. Compared to a bakery-fresh Danish, you can tell a bit, but that's not a fair comparison.

    Gifts for people that have everything.

    The flipside of this: convincing others that you're one of these people. My wife's family insists on gift lists such that I go out of my way to not buy trivialities so that they can buy them for me instead. Creative food or booze items would be great. I'll admit it's more work than adding a...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Oh, I'm not disagreeing with you guys. I'm not actually sure the purpose of my first sentence was, tbh. Clunky segue into Malazan having much deeper adaptation issues than worrying about SJWs raping it?

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    There's already transgenders, more or less, in the books. They'd barely need to change anything to "modernize" it. The story itself is not fit for TV though. The amount of payoffs, convergences, callbacks, unfinished threads, etc would make for a bad viewing experience. It already turns off...
