    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    He had a ton of great films. Hunger Games was the last film I recall seeing him in. He was great as President Snow

    My understanding on residential recycling is 1) high value stuff like aluminum and clean corrugated cardboard almost always gets recycled and put back into the supply chain 2) mid tier stuff like glass and pet/hdpe have a pretty good recycle rate, but sometimes get outsourced and sometimes get...

    It's not so much that recycling plastic is a scam, it's that the scope of types of plastics that has been expanded to in recent years. The plastic used in things like milk jugs and soda/water bottles (PET and HDPE) is usually more valued in recycling because it tends to be a more durable and...

    I just heard a theory on what Solution Nine is that makes a lot of sense - in fact, the theory is so good it could potentially be true and a major spoiler

    100% there is some NDA stuff that happened - no one is going to say shit because presumably it will violate the agreement and provide the other party with a path to further litigation.

    Pretty cool website, although the 3rd encyclopedia that SquareEnix released fills in some missing info from that site (like what the seat of the member was tasked with)

    Some people claim that Gaius had Deudalaphon's mask on his belt during that one cutscene in Stormblood. Whether that is true or not, I am pretty convinced he/she has or had a hand in Solution Nine. Deudalaphon's role on the Convocation of 14 was Architecture and Innovation, both of which seem...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The hard mode versions are meant to be grouped, but the regular one you're usually better off soloing (which is probably why the queue is taking forever). Just take the variant dungeon skills that compliment your job before entering. Like for example, if you are DPS, take the damage reduction...

    Even the VA website is like "schedule 1 means no accepted medical use, but we're researching medical use". There have been a lot of studies where psychoactive drugs in controlled settings and paired with other therapy techniques have had really profound impacts in treating PTSD and even...

    The Boys

    Ya, all the seasons of the show have shown increased durability and strength for supes. Starlight took a 50 cal round to the chest and was fine besides getting knocked down by it. The only thing shown to effectively counter most supes is either other supes or something that bypasses their...

    I’m going to presume the wings are a mount, so you can’t fight with them active We are going to the FF versions of North and South America The xpac starts in “South America”, so lots of Aztec/mesoamerican/Incan themed stuff. The tiger lady is from there. Some of the zones look jungle like...

    Live letter was today. Showed some new mounts (ex trial has a mount that gives your character wings). Facewear glam slot so you can have glasses + regular headwear at sametime. Feature that lets you hide players near quest NPCs. Showed first trial series (trial name looks like it is like...

    This shit predates Gen Z I remember in the 90s some lady was in a grocery store and there was a ruptured Pepsi bottle and she claimed it traumatized her and she attempted to sue the store for millions

    I think the negative reaction to the Summoner rework sort of scared them as well - the rework to that class made it a pretty braindead class compared to what it used to be and a large part of that is an extreme oversimplification and reduction in abilities

    Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    That's part of it as well I suspect, in addition to player fantasy. Even in games that lock certain character romances to specific requirements based on whether the player is male or female, you inevitably find mods (where applicable) that bypass that since there is a demand for it

    Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    Except it isn't a challenge in that situation, it's a prerequisite that is determined before you ever start playing the actual game. Your point might stand if there was a difficult and hard to find way where Miss Hotty McGothpants will agree to scissor your female character even though she...

    Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    Maybe in part, but they mostly include shit like that because players complain otherwise or keep demanding it. It's one of those "gameplay experience overrides other factors" so players don't feel forced to make certain gameplay choices purely because the meta game requires it. At least when...

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    Interesting - hopefully that means the quality ends up being closer to what it used to be. Studios are trying get people to go back to the theaters, so curious how they’ll try to leverage that into that strategy

    “Playersexual” companions are a thing because players want them. Heterosexual players as an actual majority I would guess Because let’s be honest…the majority of guys playing going for romances are either your ideal self male character hooking up with female characters, or your ideal...

    DOOM: The Dark Ages

    That is the T-90’s dating profile. Then you show up for dinner and discover it breaks down because it runs on a 2nd hand Lada engine, corrupt officers sold all the good parts and replaced them with aluminum foil and cardboard, and it gets gang banged by Bradleys

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    I’ve always found the theater “butter” disgusting. Fresh popped with the flavocol stuff already on it is fine. The fake butter shit they pump on the popcorn doesn’t taste like butter anyways and just makes your hands all greasy

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    Concessions is where movie theaters have made their money for close to 100 years. The reason popcorn became the defacto movie snack is because it was dirt cheap and could be marked up for a large profit margin. This helped the theaters themselves make money to offset most of the movie ticket...

    The tome gear (fully upgraded) will usually get you to the midway point in any given expansion and at the start of Dawntrail, it will all cost poetics instead of the current comedy/etc tomes. I wouldn't spend actual gil on any gear this close to release

    It's good for consoles, but the existing PC players aren't too happy about this. A guy in our company decided to quit the game after the announcement by shouting some "gamer words" into global chat and got banned lol
