Does anyone know what I am talking about when I ask for this source I saw on Hexbear a long while back?
It was a former US military official explaining US nuclear policy as essentially “in a nuclear event, launch our missiles at anyone snd everyone, including allies. In the confusion, nobody will know it was us, and we prevent any any other country having an advantage over us in the Mad Max Future. We will be the only nation standing in the dust”.
Thats a lot of paraphrasing but a good gist. I’m trying to explain to someone why its so dangerous to be in a direct war with the US and why having nukes is one of the only real defenses.
Almost had a panic attack because I feel isolated and stuck in chud land but the area I plan to move to has literally no rentals that allow more than 2 pets. I have 3. It’s been a decade since I’ve lied about having pets I wasn’t supposed to and younger me wouldn’t care at all, but I don’t want to risk getting evicted and being stuck in the same situation again. It’s probably gonna come down to hiding a cat as well as possible. My current landlord is very nosy and would have figured it out by now if we had to lie here. Renting is so stressful.
For the air filters, the lowest cost but least effective is to literally just tape a square/rectangular filter to the intake of the fan, turn it up a notch, and put it in the room you spend the most time in or that gets the worst of it.
More effective is setting up a Corsi-Rosenthal box with the fan, a few filters, and some duct tape.
After that, you can buy something like a cheap a Levoit purifier with the smoke filters. Sorry for Amazon link. I use one of these though and turn it up to high on days when the smoke is bad, but just run it 24/7 on low otherwise.
For real big ones, you usually need to mount them in the window and have large ducts/block off the rest of the window, etc. They’re way more expensive and complicated/limiting. More effective too, but only marginally so over something like the Corsi unless you live in a very large space.
For hair in the drain, a dollar drain catch like this is great.
I’m also running Linux, so that might have something to do with it, but I also see performance complaints from people I assume are Windows users on .
I’m playing with one other friend and they’re super into base building, whereas that’s not really my thing, so I go out and get the supplies from raiding camps and they put it all together. It works out.
But yeah, I read they were working on performance improvements for the next few patches before addressing complaints people have about stuff like PvP, which I haven’t participated in yet. Still only in the 2nd/3rd zone and haven’t unlocked all the classes or anything.
Dune Awakening. I normally don’t like these kinds of games but I’m a big Dune head and although it needs to break lore for thr sake of fun, the aesthetics are all there. I’m about to build a body juicer to uo my supply of water.
Like all games in this genre though, it runs like garbage and its kinds frustrating to go from butter smooth gameplay to 20 FPS stuttering in the middle of a gun fight or when trying to outrun a worm.
Even Buddhists have an idea that a sufficiently enlightened person can kill someone without malice and for their own good.
“The Bodhisattva thought: ‘If I kill this man, I shall be reborn in hell for a hundred thousand kalpas. But if he kills these five hundred merchants, he will fall into the great hells and suffer terribly for countless eons. I would rather undergo the suffering myself than let him incur such karma.’”
Ehm, clearly they meant Legend of the Galactic Heroes.
Sad. But also fair. Any situation, whether in or outside of their control, that affects a US citizen traveling there will be a PR spin to justify further action against them. Like the kid in a coma who US doctors said had no signs of mistreatment but who the FBI(?) encouraged the parents not to seek an autopsy for. Have a seizure and hit your head while there? The evil commies must have clubbed you.
The more I think, the less I remember there being many beast race NPCs that are actually hostile. Its almost always Dunmer, Bosmer, Imperials, or Nords.
