Same. I am available 9 - 5, but I tend to be actually working 10 - 4. It fluctuates depending on how badly management wants things. And of course there's the rotating on call schedule where sometimes I have to wake up in the middle of the night to confirm that a service my team owns is impacted by some other service's outage. FUN!
My pineapple plant never produces fruit. It's been... 8 years. It sure is big and healthy though!
Our Spring service was so simple until we decided we needed annotations to handle the fetching of settings. Now we are corrupted with needless reflection.
It's incredibly good. I know the phrase "better than it has any right to be" is over-used, but in this case I believe it applies. It's a survival crafting game made by Obsidian Entertainment. Yes, it's the same team that made Fallout: New Vegas. Though not perfect, it excels in ambience and design. You really feel like you're in a sequel to "Honey I Shrunk the Kids". It has decent progression, a pretty damn good story, and combat mechanics that hit that "tough but fair" vibe juuuuust right. Unfortunately, the characters can be a little annoying and it's only up to four players. These are my only main gripes as it checks all the right boxes for a survival crafting game in my book:
- Combat is fun
- Exploring is fun
- Base-building is fun
I legitimately enjoyed my time in Grounded more than Valheim. I also tried a similar game called Smalland and couldn't get over the janky combat. If you like survival crafting games, don't miss this one. Oh and there's a slider that turns down the fidelity on spiders so you can play it even if you have arachnophobia. You might still have nightmares of wolf spiders though.
QFC used to make seltzer water flavored like root beer, Dr. Pepper (it was called "Hint of the Doctor Flavor which is downright hilarious), and cola. The product line was discontinued due to lack of popularity and I miss it every day.
I am also here to rep Corpse Recover No. 2.
It's very refreshing. Gin, lemon juice, lillet, cointreaux, and a touch of absinthe.
When you remain as the last Nazi on Facebook, you can finally report yourself and then it will be all over.
I agree with most casual reviews that it's a bit unpolished, somewhat buggy, and needs work in some areas, but on the whole is a decent foundation for a game and most importantly is FUN.
History is written by people who write it down (and then get it successfully accepted/disseminated to a certain degree).
Hey now, it happens here too!
I'm decidedly and purposefully average at my job and get confused when praised. Please don't promote me... just forget I'm here. 😓
I tried NMS because so many people said it was good. It's not for me unfortunately. Sure they've fixed a lot of bugs and added a bunch of features, but none of those changes made it any more fun for me. :|
I got extremely bored and frustrated playing NMS. I'm glad other people like it, but for whatever reason it felt like an unrewarding slog for me.
None of the options you've suggested are bad. And you can always respec for 100 space bucks anyway.
In my very subjective opinion, I stay away from Magic Initiate and Eldritch Blast in general unless I'm planning on taking the Agonizing Blast from the Warlock class itself.
Yeah, it's a bit like System Shock. If you don't like monsters jumping in your face then you might want to avoid Prey.
Everyone else though... please play Prey. It was so good and didn't get the attention it deserves.
Build/test/deploy infrastructure is a genuinely hard problem that needs better tooling, particularly for testability. (Naturally, this is a hard problem, but I think very few developers are working on it.)
Agreed and it's not treated as one which is a compounding issue. 😬
