    50 years is impressive, but still a far cry from centuries or millennia. The power source on the probes are suspected to fail by the end of the decade or so and they’ve had to sacrifice many probe functions to keep other ones running Not saying it is impossible, but a much more difficult...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Found an awesome monk amulet hidden in a tiny chest near the Adamantine Forge area on a tiny island surrounded by lava and fire elementals. It’s a cursed item that will make you laugh if you fail a save, but monks get an EZ roll against it. The amulet is sentient and has an ability to restore...

    I've collected 4 parasite jars thus far, but I haven't used any of them and I've also rejected the parasites that were in dead bodies (the parasite runs away if you reject). Afraid I'll get a "bad ending" if I go hard with the parasites.

    By that, you can logically infer that no species do that, or no species do that anywhere near Earth and have yet to expand far enough to be detected by Earth Life expanding outward in the universe is just a scaled up example of life expanding in ecosystems. Life typically only expands out into...

    Assuming FTL can never be cracked, then interstellar travel would have limited uses 1) Something happens to our solar system that requires evacuation (such as a rogue Star or super giant planet or blackhole will pass through and fuck up everything) 2) people want to make their own...

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    You do realize a big contributor to the opioid epidemic was over prescribing of pain meds? Some gets hurt, they get some pain pills, use them, then suddenly discover they have to keep using them

    Ya he plays one of Thrawn’s officers I believe

    The Expanse

    I'd love to snag a prop, but the "reasonable" low starting bids always end up being fucking insane as it gets down to the wire lol You just know those Martian Power Armor suits are going to end up selling for like 10k+ even though they are starting at 800-3k

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    One thing to keep in mind is a lot of "traditional" street drugs, like heroin or cocaine, are being cut with Fentanyl to increase their potency. For example, whoever is supplying the cocaine, they might cut the cocaine with cheap filler that reduces its potency. So they make it stronger by...

    She is trying to/gets pounded by both at the same time, yes. She gets frustrated when one of them leaves to do a mission lol

    Korean Playerbase loves p2w shit - they’ll torpedo their game pretty fast in the west if you can just buy shit that gives you a PvP advantage

    Are you referring to the NPC I refer to as Jigsaw? “I want to play a game…”

    Damn, I might have to do that then. That is a pretty awesome buff if there are zero penalties to doing it.

    Do you just get the bonus, or is there a downside also? Regarding the goblin camp and aggro

    So many people miss it as well. Also Aenor’s sister getting sick of Aenor’s crap lol

    I do laugh how in later expansions they sort of make fun of that. Like that one scene where Urianger shows up in his regular clothes and mentions he freezing to death as he shivers lol

    I wonder if that changes if you don't let him use vampire bite in combat.

    I wouldn't be shocked if they draw a lot of inspiration from The Expanse tbh

    I don't think advanced life in the sense of animal or plant analogs is super rare in the universe, but I do agree there definitely is a sliding scale. Assuming our universe is about as old as we think it is, I've seen decent arguments to the effect of the early universe (as we understand it)...

    I mean, they're both the D&D equivalent of crack addicts, so it kind of checks out

    Ya, they moved a bunch of high level monk skills to the lower levels so you don't feel too gimped, especially the melee focused subclass tree. I've been enjoying my monk playthrough so far.

    These games are better on PC anyways because of the mod support

    Oppenheimer (2023)

    On a side tangent but also sort of related to Oppenheimer, the US massively dropped the ball with Qian Xuesen. The communist scare shit in the 50s basically forced him to leave the US after they stripped him of his security clearance and he ended up leading the creation of Chinese ballistic...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    If you were just powering a single home, I would agree. Although for something more municipal size, they've been looking for cheaper means of storing excess energy produced by things like solar or wind so they can continue to power the grid when they hit periods of suboptimal or loss of power...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    While the road thing isn't very likely for the US (there are too many roads), one thing that is an active area of research is cheap power storage for things like wind or solar. Basically same concept as Elon Musk's powerwall stuff w/o the lithium based batteries

    Hilda was from an elf highborn and a human servant. The highborn got the servant pregnant then kicked her out and she later died after giving birth to Hilda. Arenvald was half roe/half Garlean. The game also talks about (but doesn't show) other mixed race people in the game. I think they...

    Consider what would have happened 1) Korean War is won and communist North is defeated. United Korea. 2) China accelerates its own nuclear program - as victims of first strike, their political views on that are altered to preventing that again, which means they become more aggressive 3)...
