They're not immaculate. They used to outright deny people the right to refund their games, but they turned that around after a massive lawsuit from a government agency. Good change! I support that. But they're not behaving in an anti-competitive manner. What, are they supposed to intentionally make themselves worse in the hopes that other stores pop up? That's not how any of this works.
Telehealth pill mills like this are the reason we have an ADHD medication shortage. We had a TON of people prescribed Adderall over the pandemic and now they're hooked. This company's entire business model was about establishing a nationwide customer base of amphetamine addicts to maximize their profits.
Among a few other things, it makes leveling up twice as fast as normal UP (apparently UL doubled the XP needed to level up), you gain two perk points per level, the amount of research data you get from schematics (which you need to craft others and upgrade workstations) is doubled, and the chance to upgrade items is changed to always 100%.
My favorite mod is Undead Legacy. It lets you craft schematics for the items you need by scrapping the ones you don't need. You can find cars in the world and repair them to full working order, including lights and sirens on police cars. The progression is much more granular with item tiers doing from H all the way up to S three stars, and that includes the item mods now. Your inventory is weight-based instead of slot-based (except for containers) and you can carry a much wider variety of gear.
If this mod sounds fun, I strongly recommend also adding the anti-bullshit sub-mod that someone made for UL.
If I remember right, it doesn't just have to be grape wine either. Although if you want to make cognac (a type of brandy), it has to be grape wine.
Until Discord either starts selling data to OpenAI or they start scraping data from/similar to sites like https://spy.pet/ .
I'm playing a Star Wars Saga Edition game right now where my character is a former privateer fighting in the Jedi Civil War for the Sith. He was fairly honest with his party members about his former criminal affiliations, that's how he met them in the first place. The fact he was on the wrong side of the war only came out when a conversation about the war came up and he was directly asked about it. The Jedi in the party took it surprisingly well, but that's probably more due to the conversation being completely unserious other than his admission.
Lesson learned: you can probably trust your party with your dark past.
I've only ever played tabletop games in a VTT, but I can get that. There's not much like interacting in person. Still, VTTs do a fair amount of the heavy lifting for me, like tracking who's inside my Bless aura.
I played Starfinder once, and my GM called it "The Starfinder Disaster" because people kept joining for only a session or two before quitting. I'm looking forward to the remaster, though.
I am in friggin love with Pathfinder 2e right now. I love how flexible the system is and yet how solid it feels. Problem is I have few people to talk to about it, because it's basically seen as Dungeons and Dragons for people who hate the company behind Dungeons and Dragons.
I am absolutely certain that people stacking themselves with debt won't have any long-lasting consequences. Not even if they reach the point that they can't pay for anything other than their debts any longer. Like, honestly, paying for your pizza and your hoodie all at once is so outdated, right?
I'm having a good day. Although my Thanksgiving trip was canceled a few days ago (hours before I left for it), it means I get more time to relax at home and recover from my pinched nerve. So I'm chilling after Mass and having a couple of beers.
It helps that ebikes aren't a 100% replacement dependent on infrastructure that doesn't currently exist. If the US had a standardized battery format for its electric cars (lol), they were easily replaceable at a station (lol x2), and they could be stored with minimal risk of fire, then electric cars would be more viable here. But that's going to take years, probably at least a decade.
I had heard that they put that plan on indefinite hold, but I guess that hold is over. Anything for the ad bucks, huh?
Yeah, the first time you get feces dumped on your desk by the guy you doubted is hopefully also the last time.
I only really need something to keep track of my notifications, and maybe as a flashlight occasionally. So I just wear a PineTime, and it links up with my phone with Gadget Bridge. It's really nice, completely free and open source, and it's pretty cheap too. Week long battery life is nice, but I don't know what it's like with other smartwatches.
Right now it's a little vague. I'm picking up bits and pieces of Python to automate stuff at my job.
I like having goals that I can achieve, whether that's something at work I can knock out or a project I can work on at home.
