    Use entire tubs of soap to wash your hands

    Turn on the microwave for hours at a time

    Heat/cool office thermometer to force HVAC into overdrive

    Open new browser windows until your computer crashes and repeat until the network goes down

    Company wide meme emails that everyone participates in (team building) that crash servers and dominate inboxes

    Pour sugar/crumbs everywhere so there’s pest problems

  • Fuck me do I ever hate landmines.

    Obviously fuck Ruzzia, and Ukraine isn’t doing anything wrong defending itself in this way.

    But there’s something entirely different about passive warfare like that.

    The footage of drones dropping grenades are pretty brutal too - but for me there’s something different between being hunted by a weapon system engaged in active warfare, and the passive indifference of mines.

    There’s a lot of footage from this war that live rent free in my head, but an especially brutal one was of a Ukrainian soldier(medic?) during the first significant use of western armor counter offensive.

    They jumped out of the APC, clearly picking their landing spot, and immediately their leg was blown off by a landmine. You could see them succumbing to shock as they’re trying to get a Tourniquet on. Thankfully his buddies immediately loaded him up and left, but it’s stayed with me more than any of the others.






  • This is very true, especially around mid game.

    There are significantly more quests than you need to advance levels and eventually you get level 30+ having done all the side quests and there will be several unfinished missions for recommend level 7-20 that become worthless unless the story/character behind it interests you.

    Definitely grind early missions as they are basically tutorials and also give you lore on all the factions, don’t worry too much about gold as you will rarely be able to buy weapons better than what you find.

    By mid game you’ll have tons of access to loot for selling and will probably be more interested in spending money on refining/upgrading items than buying mediocre armor and weapons.

    The bombs and oils are great if you keep them upgraded

    Never sell ingredients you don’t have a billion of, you can buy a potion to redistribute your levels and switching from magic/physical build to late game Alchemist is really strong and fun and changes up play style.







  • Fair enough, I assumed you gamed on both and stopped for PS5 because they made PSN mandatory and I somehow was unaware.

    Can’t justify a gaming PC when PS4 pro was pretty cheap and my gaming hours are not what they used to be

    I can justify a not so new console every 5 or so years as they hit my value for money sweet spot, and reduced gaming hours due to life

    But the upfront cost for a decent rig to replace consoles entirely is not what I want to use my money for (for now!)

    Can’t wait to finally make the jump though!




  • The initial plan had been for the first fab to achieve full production this year, but the timeline was delayed due to several workforce challenges. These included difficulties in finding skilled workers locally, cultural differences between TSMC’s Taiwanese management and American employees, and a shortage of skilled construction workers that slowed the building process. This delay raised concerns about TSMC’s ability to maintain efficiency with its US operations compared to its facilities in Taiwan.

    Recent success in trial production has alleviated some of these concerns. TSMC has confirmed that the Arizona project is progressing as planned, although the company has not commented specifically on yield rates.
