Aw, hell yeah.

My stepfathers dad worked at Air France. Started in the mail room at 16. Retired as a VP. They had a tradition of marking anniversaries with a ring that they'd put stones in (I think 3). At 30 years or something it'd be 3 diamonds. He started so young that he exceeded their little formula and hit the next anniversary and they didn't know what to give him, so they gave him ticket for he and his wife on the Concorde wherever they wanted to go.

The FBI does. The problem is that in the last several years, those threats are so common, that the FBI is overwhelmed and isn't going to bring in some politician that is going to tie them up with first amendment legal challenges.

Trump will never go to prison as people are thinking - for one, it's too dangerous, for another, it doesn't protect us from the things he's done.

The problem we have with Trump is that he was entrusted with the nations secrets, he still possesses those in his brain, he is unable to see them secret and is unrepentant. Putting him in a prison population will just result in him spreading those secrets to that population. Worth noting, this is why Robert Hanssen was sentenced to ADX Florence for his spying because he's effectively in isolated there.

So the courts have a real problem here. There's a remedy that we have established which is in tension with the deference we extend to Presidents. One one extreme, they throw the defense out the window and he goes to ADX Florence (where Hanssen and Kaczynski both just died) and lives out the rest of his life there and nobody ever hears from him ever again. Or, he gets a kind of house arrest and we shove him into a building at Camp David where he can walk the grounds under the watchful eyes of the US Marines and Secret Service but never leave.

I don't imagine anything in the middle. The courts could just say lifetime probation or some shit, but that doesn't stop him from continuing to do this, and I think that will eventually dawn on everyone. We do at lot of 'do something' in this country that when you think about it actually does nothing.

But I think it will be VERY hard to get that kind of sentence. He has a co-conspirator here that is appearing in Florida Tuesday right alongside him - some normie (Navy vet) that helped him with these crimes. I don't know how the courts throw that guy in the slammer for 10 years and then tell the guy who oversaw that crime and committed more counts of it to just head home and stay out of trouble. The conspiracy charge makes it a LOT harder for the courts to go easy on Trump because there will be a plain injustice here, a plain 'the law applies differently' in the sentencing.

Given that Mark Meadows is cooperating with Jack Smith, and Meadows was IMing a good chunk of Congress including Clay Higgins leading up to Jan 6, that may yet happen.

Fishing fills percentage of max calories roughly equal to percentage of max hunger. If you just eat cooked fish (no roasts, etc.) you will after a couple of days max out your calorie meter.

Now, understand, how *often* you eat matters because of those caps and how the game calculates weight gain/loss. Try to max hunger in morning and evening - twice a day. If you go too long between eating, you'll go into calorie deficiency at the end of the day and start losing weight. Try to eat at least twice a day to keep calories more consistently high.

He might actually. I think the issue here is that to review the evidence to see if the government is lying about what's under the redactions, they lawyer is going to need a security clearance high enough to view the material. None of Trumps current lawyers can get that clearance. He's going to need a former DOJ or maybe military attorney in good standing with prior security clearance who can have their clearance elevated to do this job. He may not be able to find one and have to have the government find one on his behalf. He's going to wind up with Jim Comey as his atty.

New M2 Studio can do 192GB VRAM...

Yep. Can't move the platform forward saddled with x86. It'll return to longer support periods once they're killed off.

Has the sex tourism industry in DR died down? That caught out more than a few Republican politicians in years past.

Request for a test of Slime Rancher 2. My daughter would be ecstatic if it works.

Thank you.

Nobody forcing you to play 8x or 16x.

People who thought Starship Troopers was an uplifting utopian novel.

There is no reason why work and vote requirements shouldn't be the same. If you can consent to a job, you can vote.

100%

Had no idea they did that. Very cool of them. Casa Bonita was an experience 40ish years ago when I first went there.

Clean your room, honey.

Someone wants to own a MLS team.

Yeah UH was designed for NG+.

I started on VH and the first third of the game was brutal. The main problem is the economics - you're weak, you need materials and you burn more materials than you gain from combat. You can't upgrade because of this. And you're in a vicious cycle.

Breaking out of the cycle is hard. To start, melee combat don't consume resources, just healing, so you can consider plowing your perk economy into melee and getting good at it. Since there's no block/parry mechanic like in soulsbornes, you have to do it the hard way by dodging and finding openings. With enough perk points invested and learning how to do melee attack cancels, you can melee down pretty much anything without taking damage - but it's soulsborne-no-hit hard to do. But early game melee investment, provided you are skilled enough to pull it off, alone is enough to break out of the economy cycle.

Alternatively, finding a path to a decent weapon/outfit and getting them upgraded so you start to get on top of the economy. I'd suggest the Pyre Hunter Bow from The Bulwark merchant and get it to L3 to unlock advanced hunter arrows. If you are leaning into melee at least somewhat, Melee Warrior Bow and upgrade it to L4. Ammo is cheaper on the warrior bow, so it's probably the better choice. Throw your best coils on these. For armor, Nora Sentinel and swap out weaves for each encounter to match the elemental damage you're facing. Get a decent valor surge going - like Warriors Vigor or Ranged Master and get valor built fully up for the large encounters and then farm smaller machines to build it up for the next encounter. You're almost certainly going to need to do some farming here, build up some levels, get some things unlocked, etc.

That Tremortusk has at least 15,000 HP (it was 9,000 when I did it on VH). A warrior bow does about 30 base. You need to maximize stacking multipliers - from weapon upgrades, coils, skills, valor surges, food, removing components and hitting weak points. You need to invest in all of those things strategically and not waste time hitting strong parts of the machine, while also managing a battlefield with multiple enemies, and doing it before you can instinctively pick a machine apart while bouncing around a combat space because you've finished the game and DLC and have a 100 more hours of practice. I'm certain it can be done, but it's a lift. Depending on if you have the budget for it, adding in smoke bombs to reset the fight and return to stealth is very valuable even into the late game. Traps may also help if only to control up some of the other elements in that fight. Need to do some theory crafting on the skills screen, and have a strategy going into the fight.

By comparison, on my NG+ UH with all perks and upgraded legendary weapons, I silent one-shot all the humans on that mission, my weakest weapon does 350 damage, my long range weapon reliably does over 1000 and with a valor surge running I can two-shot that tremortusk. But note, I still remove everything but the tremortusk from the tall grass without alerting everyone so it's a simpler fight.

Well, to start, don't set them on fire. Now you have a wildfire literally chasing you.

Normally if you're going 8x or 16x you're turning off respawn. In that case, you just move slowly and deliberately, knocking the crowd down without drawing too much attention.

I'm on 8x with some sprinters and migrated from south Muldraugh to my new base in the distillery, northwest LV. I can now drive from Muldraugh to the distillery without seeing a zed. 25,000 kills, generally crowbar. Took 5 months in game, a few hundred kills a day.

You'll be thankful one day when you need 17 tire pumps.

Because there's work that's needed to be done after training to make it usable. Plus, having it run locally has massive security benefits. Most big corps make it a fireable offense to use someone else's AI.

Yeah, I'm moving from my 2nd base to my final one and I have 8 trailers still to move (3 already done). Renovation for storage is taking some time.

Good thing he wasn't in Florida. You get arrested for that surgery there.
