(this is an expensive hobby just FYI)

Yeah custom keyboards get absurdly expensive very quickly.

Aha, okay. Steel Path is probably the difference.

then they made it free and introduced DLCs. Such a slap in the face.

The part that got me is that they made it free and reset my light level.

Suddenly I was on the same light level as people that had just started playing. The only difference between us being that I had some exotics.

Going F2P was shitty from my perspective, but going F2P and removing all the content I'd paid for already.. yikes.

What absolutely killed it for me is when they started including important story information in battlepasses. I stopped playing for awhile, and then started doing a new expansion only to find out that my light had been reset, half my favorite guns were literally useless, and on top of all of that I couldn't really follow the plot anymore because they had introduced an entirely new hub area I'd never seen, and several new characters that they just expected me to know.

You don’t get partial credit for an incomplete extractor

Wait, you don't?

I definitely recall it giving you partial cryotic for each one (assuming you actually powered it at all), and you just need a certain amount to leave.

It's possible they've changed it or I'm misremembering- I haven't done an excavation in literal years due to farming so many a loooong time ago.

Maybe I'm not understanding something- why is excavation a limiter? You can pretty much always struggle through an excavation eventually since you can't fail them unless you die..... right?

Not a popular pick it seems, but I think I'd go with Inaros.

I think the only real requirement for this is that you have some sort of CC/Defense capabilities because higher level defense missions can be rough without a decent frame for them. Interceptions are going to be a pain pretty much no matter what, but they should be doable. Inaros should be able to do both.

My other reason: I like Inaros. I think he's fun.

The only part that would be difficult is getting Rage. Hopefully it'd drop from one of the junction specters, but worst case you can farm Napalms.

An interesting followup question: what weapons do you complete this with? What builds are you using? Do you bother going out of your way to personally farm the rarer mods or just make a decent build with more common stuff?

What 'whirlwind of changes' has happened to Destiny 2?

Maybe I'll actually consider playing it again if it's major enough.

I doubt it, just from this article, because most of my issues were with the monetization and 'running destiny 2 like a business' doesn't make me expect they'll fix my issues with it lol

I don't really think it's ever been a Pokemon knockoff in anything but the monster designs. And they're not going to change all of those, so.. it's just as a much a Pokemon knockoff as it's always been.

That's the point. You can't really build an advertising profile if they literally engage with every single thing all the time.

I read at one point it was thought the color would help keep pilots as alert as possible.

From my understanding, they appear to be coming from you- that's kinda the point.

or she has a significant Indian population in her district.

I'm in her district. No, we don't have a significant Indian population here. It's 68% white, and another 25% split between black and hispanic.

I've never really been on 4chan for any length, but I remember some of their greatest hits- managing to almost win a contest to name the next mtn dew flavor 'hitler did nothing wrong', or that one time they got Taylor Swift to do a show at a school for the deaf.

Kinda edgy, extremely amusing.

I kinda like horror games. I just need some kind of mitigating factor. If it's just me, the game, and all the spooky shit in it I have issues. Outlast was also not for me.

Yeah, I don't like Linus all that much but I do enjoy LTT's content overall. He tends to drastically and publicly overreact to literally any criticism, and then the rest of the team gets involved and he walks it back. Whether they legitimately change his mind or just convince him he's gotta look like he's changed his mind I have no clue.

My favorite instances of Linus are when he's an absolute idiot on the WAN show and we just get to see Luke's reaction live. The hard-r thing was absolutely hilarious.

In 2022 he tweeted this.

That might be what you're remembering, but he's definitely addressed his views on piracy during the WAN show several times as well.

Edit: someone else posted the full context elsewhere in the thread. I'd link to that comment, but idk how on lemmy so here: https://archive.ph/VavFc

No. The owner of the media has already been paid in both of those scenarios. It makes zero difference to them whether you're watching the ads.

Adblocking, on the other hand, is actively hurting the owner of the media because they get paid based on how many ads they can serve. If you block the ad, it isn't served, and they don't get paid.

Personally, I definitely think it's piracy. I also still do it.

I actually like it a lot ngl.

From the side it looks like the bastard son of a Frogfoot, the backside looks like they stole the tail rudders from an F-18 and strapped them on something F-14 adjacent.

The front is very A-10, just with the engines in a different orientation.

That's some 40k shit.

"What does it mean?" "I do not know, but it appeases the machine spirit. Quickly, recite the canticles."

As someone who has never even seen it until now, it really does look like plywood.

Ok I'm ngl that sounds like excellent.

That's kind of arbitrary, isn't it?

To me, being a good person extends to doing good while hopping on one leg.

That's ridiculous, right? That's obviously a definition of 'good' I'm creating, and choosing to impose on myself. Which is exactly what you're doing. Yours is just less ridiculous.

The heck is that three barreled Sherman?

Bro what

No. The US doesn't care if the terms are consecutive or not, it's a hard limit of two terms.

Nvidia and AMD both have programs that'll let you know when you have a driver update. It'll handle it automatically past you needing to click 'go', from what I remember(I haven't had a Nvidia gpu in a few years.) For AMD it's called Adrenaline, and for Nvidia it's Geforce Experience.

I don't find that anything but GPUs really need regular driver updates.

Installed, I love all the themes! Thanks!

I'm really enjoying it quite a lot- I first played around a20, and then I picked it up again recently.

It isn't a perfect game, but it's a pretty decent experience that's very unique.

I don't think it's worth $45. That seems a bit excessive. $20 or maybe even $30? Sure.

With that said, I haven't followed the game's development at all really. I could see a bunch of broken promises causing some completely understandable frustration with the devs.

Well, they're gonna make you feel things if nothing else.

You have a Steam Deck- You can emulate a PS1. I have no idea how difficult to set up that would be, as I've never cared to play PS1 games myself. For the record, I'd be surprised if you couldn't emulate a PS3, and RPCS3 is actually the easiest thing imaginable to get set up and working. In my experience the PS2 emulator, PCSX2 is very heavy hardware wise compared to RPCS3 so that might not actually run on a Steam Deck.

To first clarify this community, it's not "don't ask stupid questions" its "there are no stupid questions". In other words, ask that thing you've wanted to know but feel dumb for not knowing. It's fine- there's no stupid questions.

AskLemmy is more centered on asking other (lems? Lemians? Lemmers? I have no idea what we call each other.) questions specifically. A question for asklemmy would be something like, "How do you all feel about x?" It's more of a general question and answer forum where the question is sometimes less important than the discussion that it causes.

I think he's saying that if the potatoes are both firm and canned, it's because of some crazy chemicals. Not just canned goods = chemicals.

Why he thinks you can't can firm potatoes without chemicals? I have no clue.

Yeah I gotta get some of that. Sounds pretty good.

Then I guess we're talking about at least..... three(?) unrelated types of food that are called potato salad.

The civilised side and the vinegar people

I love how clearly this second sentence displays which of the two sides you are.

I, for one, am not a fan of "proper" potato salad because I dislike mayo.

I've never had this stuff, but it sounds much more interesting to me.

I'm gonna be real with you. I do the same shit. I don't understand something? Well, I have a phone on me so unless it's horribly complicated I'm about to understand it.

We aren't normal in that respect. Most people are happy with their ignorance, or at least that's my observation so far.
