  • 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 reddit-logo.

    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.
