Basically think of it as a modern MMO: You can basically solo through most of it and really only need to group up for boss fights (basically world bosses, completely optional although Scorch Beast Queen is tied to a main story quest). However, I would recommend you join a public group while...

When you live in an area of the country where that is a non-issue, it does put into perspective how those sorts of things have to be constructed with that in mind. Like below ground basements. They're pretty much mandatory in the north, but you get surprised that basements aren't universal...

People really do underestimate how a car drives in snow if they aren’t used to it. One reason why I always get manual transmission, snow driving is far far easier when you have more direct control over shifting and being able to quickly put into neutral

Most times when blackouts are happening during ice/snow storms, it’s because a tree fell on a line somewhere or some jackass crashed into a pole, not because of power generation issues.

There is for sure opportunities. One thing they have been trying to solve for is cheap means of capturing energy to release during demanding times. They aren’t a fix all and you always do want a diverse energy portfolio: renewables are cheap, but non-renewables can help during less than...

So once in a century event is your basis for what is otherwise fairly cheap power to mitigate overall energy costs? That is like saying hydroelectric dams are shit because a super drought hits a state that usually doesn’t deal with that condition and didn’t build their dam to account for...

Oversimplification. Our electricity grids are ancient and do a very poor job of load management and power routing during unexpected demand spikes, regardless as to where the power is being sourced from

That mention about kid races, at a fan fest in Japan, some guy asked Yoshi P if they would add options to play as a child in future and you could tell Yoshi was thinking “lol da fuck?” and gave his diplomatic answer amounting to never Game does have Lalafels, but those are basically just potatoes

Holden is basically lawful good paladin

As an aside, masks are actually kind of nice in cold weather. Cold dry air does a number on me, so I would try to wrap a scarf or one of those pull down fleece things that covers your lower face. But they would always shift or sometimes be too warm. A decent cloth mask helps retain some of...

EQ1 fights pretty much all followed the same pattern: Find the safe spots to dodge AOEs/hide your healers and squishies, figure out the tank swaps, deal with the x-factor (knockback, poisons, mana drains, etc). The strategy usually was much harder to crack than the actual execution...

Regarding Chappelle, he more or less admitted in the past that he felt a lot of pressure during when his show was at its peak. He recounted some interaction he had with Richard Pryor where Pryor was basically "passing the crown" to him and that, combined with the drama on the show and all the...

Funny how lots of the uber guild monks seemed to have ultimate peaks gearwise in Velious. I was probably legit one of the most geared monks in all of EQ during Velious as well (Only sleeper robe on server, every single monk Vulak loot, AOW pants). As for pulls, I was a good puller, but I had...

Considering they are supposedly working on a Fantastic Four movie, I wouldn't be surprised if they tease that in some regard as the aerospace engineer angle. They're already presumably going to use this show to tease Doctor Strange 2, and they've started to dip their toes into the X-Men pool.

A PVP game having too many skills to manage is shit design. Clicking isn't practical and you shouldn't have to play Dance Dance Revolution with your fingers over the entirety of your keyboard.

Commercial is the darkest by far. Slogan was "Snack for survivors", but the kid wasn't a survivor and thus couldn't eat the 'yo-magic' and died. So it could mean a bunch of things: 1) Her survivor's guilt (ie, Pietro died because he didnt have magic, but she did because of her magic) 2)...

Wondering if the witness thing even amounts to anything beyond just a vehicle to get Agent Woo’s character there

Episode at least answers our question about certain things existing outside the hex. Monica is def going to become Photon also after that bit about her cells and the ct scans bring just a bright screen

Collectors items!!! Besides the Babylon Bee podcast thing, she's been pretty quiet on all her accounts. Which is smart, there is no reason to start doubling down or whatever at this point, especially when the Twitter mob has gotten their taste of blood.

There is a scene in the books where King describes how even though people were immune to the virus, there were still deaths because of the collapse of society. There was I think one scene where he mentions a kid that falls down a well, breaks their leg, and eventually dies. They basically made...

Everyone on the cast apparently loved her or got along with her, so it wasn’t driven by that.

Lithose’s last reply cements his mentality. Doesn’t matter if you tell someone for months that they are being subject to a “coup” with no evidence and get them riled up because he tossed in a weak disclaimer Shove all this shit into the insurrection echo chamber, I mean politics forum

you didn’t post the story she immediately posted after that one. And again, context. And Phoenix, Gunn was rehired after time had passed. Maybe Gina gets rehired. Who the fuck knows, this literally just happened.

Context matters. This has been an ongoing thing. To spell it out: Company losing hundreds of millions due to park closures, reduced tourist visits, travel restrictions Company wants to lure people back, so it needs to convince people they can handle things safely and in turn family will be...

Yup, they've both posted stupid shit. Better question to pose: Have they posted the same type of stupid shit since those posts blew up? Pedro yanked that sample post down, for instance, after he probably was talked to. Same with Gina last year when she posted some stuff.

Gunn also tweeted that stuff 8+ years ago, not 2 days ago. It's a lot easier to profess that you've changed/matured/etc when you're dealing with close to a decade worth of time. Not the same situation.

In other news, Pedro is reported to have been cast as Joel in the live action TLOU series.

I haven't eaten at McDonalds in like 30ish years, but I always thought it was just flat orange soda lol

If to be believed, some reports are indicating that Disney originally had planned to announce Gina as staring in the Rangers spin off during the investors meeting, but nixed any confirmation after her last bout with controversial tweets/statements/etc during November. If that is accurate, that...

They can only do so much. The second you start implying "genocide of millions = people being mean to conservatives", it is going to be extremely difficult to play rodeo clown and defuse the situation, especially when you have a history of toeing over the line and poking the bear. I mean maybe...

She honestly isn't being very smart about what battles she is choosing to fight and how she communicates her views about those battles, though. Like for instance she could have used the 1970s Body Snatchers remake if she wanted to troll about the example you noted above. She can probably get...

The history thing is accurate, yes. But if the intention was to draw parallels with that and some whiny Karens, then that’s fucking stupid.

The current issue de jour is she posted some thing about Nazis and how it wasn’t just the nazis who were complicit in the killing of Jewish people, but also the neighbors who were made to hate them based on nazi propaganda. Then immediately her next story was on some California mask rule. So...

Why bother? Everyone will call me the role tank anyways

PVP mostly

Bonus weapon slots alone will be fantastic, especially if you omni craft and level multiple jobs. It was getting a little snug in that inventory spot.

Which is exactly why you need meaningful content outside of rinse/repeat raid and mythic clears and rep grinds
