    Nah, it's more just a funny use of mechanics and commenting that a proper testing team should have caught something like this. Actibliz notoriously fired a vast majority of their QC department, a few years ago though. I don't know anything about GGG or their testing methods/budget, or lack...

    Well that's funny, the new end game necro meta is a spec that allegedly achieves 100% uptime on invulnerability named infinimist. Have to stack lucky hit. Here is the spec; I'm sure this was well tested, intentional, and in no way will be nerfed before season 1...

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    I have seen a mouse/rat (forgot which it was) work their way free from a partial hold in the old glue traps they used when I was a youth (in the 90s), then leave a trail of glue smeared across the floor with it's last bit of energy. I have also seen those old traps get flipped upside down and...

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    It's a fairly large rat, about the size of fully grown pet rats I have seen people own. So a bit concerned it will get glue all over the inside of the vehicle, and haven't seen any signs of where it was pathing outside (in the garage). Obviously, every day the rat is in the vehicle, the higher...

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    A crafty rat found it's way into a vehicle, and is avoiding the two traps. So found a variation on suffocating the varmints out, using dry ice (NYC got in trouble using this because it's not EPA approved). No idea how much dry ice would be need to fill up a vehicle enough to kill the rat...

    Car ?'s

    Yea, memories can be a bit faulty, so without video it's hard to say how big of an asshole the trailer guy was being. While they are a small minority of drivers w/ trailers, in the big cities, I have seen some douchebags driving way faster, "weaving" sluggishly around traffic, and doing things...

    Well, he meant to hit the truck, but it accelerated quickly and ended up hitting the trailer instead.

    Kinda related: I had a bug before I quit, in one of the Helltide boss summoning events, that would cause one of my necro abilities to launch the portals about 2 screens away. I had it happen multiple times on one portal and the event boss was almost dead by the time I got back.

    Babylon 5: The Road Home

    First time I watched B5 was around 5 years ago, and, once I got over the terrible CGI, I thought it was great (even season 1). Directly before watching it, I had just gotten through a months long Star Trek run of TNG (2nd rewatch), DS9 (I had only seen 50% of DS9, previously), and Enterprise...

    To add my experience: I did at least 6 tree boxes before stepping foot in a nightmare dungeons and probably averaged 1 sigil per box; I may have gotten up to 3 in one, and 0 in others. Then was getting 1-2 sigils in each nightmare dungeon. When RNG is involved it can be difficult tell, as bugs...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    All you can do it try. It shouldn't take too long to figure out if it will work. Do you have a tv that can easily be brought out to the garage? Before running any wires in the walls, I would just run a loose wire down the ladder and hook up the antenna to various mounting positions you want to...

    You can turn off move/attack/interact as one key, to bind them separately, if that helps anything. It makes left click into force move, by default.

    Sure, but I am paranoid of getting sued, so it's always why take the chance when they specifically say your banned from burning shit. It always feels like there is some small chance that I could roll a 1 and everything goes catastrophically wrong.

    Weird, I wonder if that was some kinda of lucky bug to get 6. The last I read was that the Mystery chests respawn at the top of every hour and there are only 4 spawn locations per helltide, with only 2 being active at a time... ...and as I typed all that, the newest helltide map says all 4...

    I did the helltide reset to great effect, the second or third time I did it; would have easily got 4 chests, if I hadn't started both times with less than 30 min left. They either nerfed it somehow, or it, more likely, required a ton of people online to create 1000 different instances to jump...

    Vaguely remember reading that you will be disappointed, as they only try it this once, and eventually mix the teams, even in that same season, because of just how bad it went (for the women). I think it was @Lanx that watched the whole season, and wrote about it, when it was posted elsewhere on...

    You can probably still do the Helltide trick of collecting the currency in WT3, then switching to WT4 to open the mystery boxes. Only open Mystery box and use this map to find them: Diablo 4 Helltide Event Tracker and Chest Locations They are the best loot for the time spent, but a wee bit...

    Nope. Cant spin at that distance, and at it's current, tidally locked distance, it helps to stabilize earth's wobble; pushing the moon away, so it is no longer tidal locked, will cause an issue on earth (also, the moon is already moving away, very very slowly). Kurzgesagt did a neat video on...

    I almost skipped the demon episode altogether after the true crimes bullshit. They might have fit with The Twilight Zone or Tails From the Darkside, but it wasn't what I remember Black Mirror being about. The non tech related stories weren't terrible, exactly, but they weren't Black Mirror of...

    I looked at cards a few weeks ago, but there are no new games that are coming out that I care all that much about, so why spend any money now. I might look again, in a few months, around Baldur's Gate 3 release time. I thought I read something about AMD and Nvidia both bring out new cards over...

    I'm sure a better card would make a very noticeable difference, but ignorance is bliss, and all that. That video from pages back, with the new ray tracing looks phenomenal, and of course I didn't experience anything close to either option shown in the video. I am unsure if any card under $700...

    Wild fires in Texas and Oklahoma start from grass fires and burn huge swaths of land and houses. Last year seemed especially bad for it and everyone takes it seriously.

    What do the stats of the dropped lego have anything to do with it? You extract the aspect from the dropped lego, then you put it on the yellow you like the stats on. I have used a dungeon acquired aspect all of 1 times. Everything I own was taking it off one dropped item, and putting it on another.

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

    One of the best ways they could QoL the aspect system, and still kinda keep their vision is to have all extracted aspect update the board, and become infinite use. So the dungeon completion will reward you with the minimum, and every time you exact something better, it updates to those numbers...
