Patient gamers, what are your favorite OSTs?
  • Morrowind and project wingman are peak. FFXIV is fantastic with a persistent leitmotif across each entire expansion. The final endwalker boss basically wrapped up YEARS worth of story and that fight music was a medly featuring every expansion's leitmotif and holy shit I can't get over how incredible it was. Also the pandaemonium raid music. And Alexander. Seriously you can rabbit hole for HOURS on FFXIV music.

  • Woman Wants Landlord to Pay After Finding Cockroach Imbedded in Her Ear
  • Currently in temporary lodging with roaches. They spray regularly so not an infestation. I was worried, but the one I've seen so far was way too massive to even fit in my ear, so that makes me feel better... I think.

  • Sniper rifles suck in Helldivers 2.
  • Yeah super weird take. The diligence and CS have been buffed over what they used to be, and they were absolutely viable before. The senator having heavy pen is kinda weird, but it only has 6 rounds to balance that out. A heavy pen 15 round mag would be kinda silly. Plus they've stripped armor from devaststors making them easier to kill than ever, and basically every strategem has armor pen now.

    OP if you wanna feel like a god and solo everything with a primary, play on 3 or lower. Otherwise bring AT or aim for the face. Or bring the fire breaker to bugs, that legit kills everything smaller than a titan.

  • An imaginary world modelled after Islam
  • I've seen it used that way a lot. Think I saw a guy link a research paper to a woman he was arguing with. Turns out she wrote the damn thing and it did not agree with him like he claimed.

  • Lucas abandoned Star Wars twist to Obi-Wan's story | Digital Trends
  • this revelation does offer some further insight into just how deeply the Star Wars creator thought not only about the prequel trilogy’s characters and story but also its connections to the events of A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi.

    My opinion on this shifts wildly from "oh my God he planned so much" to "holy shit he really just made it all up as he went." We deserve Darth jar jar though.

  • Drag didn't do that...
  • I mean in the instance of directly addressing the person. If you 1 for 1 swap it sounds weird (what do drag), but if you change "do" to "does" it sounds like you're 3rd personing.

  • US airlines required to automatically refund you for canceled flight
  • I was under the impression that the law was already that airlines had to give 3x the ticket price if you were involuntarily canceled or bumped from a flight, which is why they offered to compensate people to volunteer to take other flights or a voucher instead.

  • We may have done an oops.

    Carrots are NOT doing great. May have failed to thin enough.

    On the plus side, beans are THRIVING.

    Alert: tomato plant has breached containment

    First garden project so we didn't know quite what to expect; thinking we should have given them a little more space. They've completely grown over the basil and in the past 2 days shot out of the netting. It's exciting they're doing so well though.

    Helldivers, what are your favorite loadouts?

    You know the ones. Old faithful, when you aren't feeling spicy and just want to spread managed democracy as hard as you can.

    Bugs

    • Incendiary breaker: great impact damage, burns. Kills everything below a charger easily. Perfect for sweeping across waves of chaff and letting them burn.

    • Grenade pistol: perfect for closing bug holes alone and from a distance.

    • Incendiary impact grenades: closes bug holes, area denial for chaff, good damage against bigger bugs.

    • Light armor with + grenades: speed is important for kiting, and can never have too many incendiary grenades against bugs.

    • Orbital gas strike: shuts down breaches, low CD, simple as. Used to stan orbital airburst but it doesn't last as long as the breach.

    • Orbital railcannon: sometimes you need a charger dead now. This will do the trick.

    • Shield pack: protects from incidental damage and slows from hunters and stalkers. Lets me gamble a bit more on letting bugs burn to death and conserving ammo.

    • EAT: slaps everything, low enough CD to stockpile or share. Combined with the orbital rail, you can handle a lot of heavies at once.

    Criticisms of my own build: The shield is kind of a crutch, but it really comes in handy when running light armor, saving your ass from incidental stunlock deaths and getting wrecked by an unseen charger. Also saves from friendly fire, especially rovers and turrets. I recently switched from mining orbital airburst to gas for breaches, but I do think airburst is much easier to use for cleaning up massive waves. The incendiary breaker is one of the easiest weapons to team kill with due to the fire and insane spread it has. Running it alongside the grenade pistol basically means I am unable to support allies from a distance without being very likely to murder them. This is very much a "do everything yourself" build and not a team oriented one. I switch it up with friends in comms, but randos get this build.

    Bots

    • Scorcher: Hits hard, pens medium, explodes. Takes out devastators and walkers alike.

    • Redeemer/verdict: Both delightful, depends how I'm feeling. Definitely necessary to run something with high damage output because the scorcher has a small magazine.

    • Impact grenade: Tricky to use on fabricators, but takes down walkers and group chaff like a charm.

    • Medium armor with explosion resistance: keeps mobiity while preventing you from getting wrecked by a stray rocket.

    • Eagle airstrike: Hands down favorite strategem on bots. Hits multiple fabricators, takes out tanks, heavy patrols, can do decent damage to a factory strider if hit right.

    • Autocannon: Should need no explanation but I will anyway. Kills fabricators from a distance, 2 shots devastators, cripples hulks, kills static guns/mortars, basically does everything. If there's already 2 acs in a group, I'll run the spear instead for more direct murdering of hulks and striders.

    • Eagle cluster bomb: Big wave clear.

    The last slot is flexible. On lower difficulties I might run orbital gas because it can actually kill fabricators as long as the strategem is on top of or touching the building, and the gas will wipe out a small factory easily. Airburst might do the same but it just occurred to me that I have no idea if it destroys fabricators. On higher difficulties I might take orbital rail, especially if I'm running autocannon because sometimes those hulk face shots are hard to hit.

    Criticism: I should probably run stun grenades over impact to deal with hulks, but the instant results of the impact are great. If I have to reload facing down devastators or walkers, impacts clean up quick. This build is more tuned towards larger enemies. The bug build has the advantage of the incendiary breaker being a glorious wave clear weapon, while the scorcher is single target and very low ammo. The eagle cluster sort of helps there, but I rely on secondary weapons fairly often.

    Feel free to share your builds, suggestions, and criticisms. I will die on several of these hills.

    Ever dive into a black hole?

    Crushing gravity isn't that big a deal, once you get used to it.

    So the game lets you finish mission sets even if the planet is liberated (or destroyed, I guess) so I was able to visit Meridia and dive again even though the planet is gone.

    Maybe oc? I'm sure someone else has thought of this already.

    Catbox full size images not loading

    Not sure if this is a connect problem or catbox problem, but often when clicking an image hosted on catbox, it'll flash the low res then show a broken image picture when it tries to load the high res version.

    Unrelated issue but I've also noticed that occasionally when turning the screen on while viewing an external link in-app, the app will crash.

    She's not actually that fat, just a very unflattering angle.
