Bardeh posted:I resubbed the other day on Omega too, but I'm at the end of ARR and I'm faced with 100 boring fetch quests before the first expansion and I just...can't. I'm considering paying for the skip - is Heavenward that much better that's it's worth it? Personally I wouldn't pay for the skip - the story pays off in spades as it builds towards HW, so if you've made it this far you might as well power through. HW has the same basic mechanics, but it is structured a lot better - far more expansive maps to explore, a much more focused story, new single player dungeons that mean a lot less 4 and 8 player encounters to queue for, just a lot more focus and interest everywhere. I'm not an MMO person, and a lot of ARR was... fine, I guess, but I'm genuinely invested now. I did pay for the machinist level skip way back though, so I've been able to power though absolutely everything.

Ugh, I can't take any pleasure from seeing this happen in realtime, even to someone like Johnson. He's a bastard, but I just want people like him gone from power, nothing else. I honestly hope he survives, but I also hope that seeing someone so public go this badly downhill will convince the people who aren't taking this seriously to do so.

The AMD Ryzen range is solid as hell too. Mainly what you need is a current gen CPU, regardless of what power you settle on. Modern CPUs are extremely quick off the mark compared to older gens, so even a relatively cheap one is going to handle day to day tasks well.

What is my best option for cooling an attic room with skylight windows, for up to let's say a couple hundred pounds? It is already starting to get summery as hell up there, so I should probably actually invest in something this year, and do it early.

OwlFancier posted:Does opening the windows not work? Especially if you open them and the door it should vent really well as you're well placed to catch the wind/suck air up from the ground floor. Nah, the room is just an insane heat sponge, I've literally opened both doors to the house and made a cold air tunnel that blew through the house and it was half useful at best. I'm thinking of the near 40 degree summer we had and I absolutely cannot do that again if we get a repeat.

The main thing I've noticed when going to the supermarket is that people are happy obeying the two metre rule while queueing... But on the way to the queue will walk directly past everyone, because there's a barrier in between them.

Gonzo McFee posted:https://twitter.com/JewishChron/status/1149200550845702144 I've gone to the conclusion that centrists liberals are the true evil of the world. At least fascists are angry about something, however misguided their beliefs and however horrifying their methods. People like this are just these soulless husks who don't seem to care about anything whatsoever beyond their own comfort and happiness, chasing popularity by saying and doing literally anything, seeing no problem and feeling no guilt in endangering other people with sabotage and lies then immediately crying about how it's someone else's fault with full and convincing crocodile tears. It's sociopathy as a political tool.

I'm extremely average and my one and only secret is that I know how to use herbs and spices, lol. I do not understand how people can get this far in life without learning how to season poo poo. My favourite part of "being a good cook" is basically just my willingness to use a large knife. Loads of people feel like they're somehow going to slice all their fingers off with a large knife, then proceed to use a tiny blade for everything and barely escape without a knife through their fingers with every meal.

I like cooking but not spending a lot of time on it, so I do a lot of stir-frys. Some combination of chilli, ginger, lime and soy sauce usually does the job, big fan of smoked paprika too. Just throw it all in a wok until done.

Morrisons had flour yesterday, but they had literally stuck it in the thick paper bags they put pasties and stuff in and put a label on it, so I'm guessing they just used the flour they get in bulk for their bakers and decided to sell it in lieu of having any of their regular stock.

I started the year by getting a hernia, then being signed off from work with stress, but I wanted to start the new decade strong, so I decided it didn't matter, that I'd get those two things sorted and hit the rest of the year fresh. So I did get them sorted, exactly in time for quarantine to start. I had the hernia surgery on a Friday and lockdown was announced for Monday.

One even turned up to my CLP with a whole page of this poo poo he'd written down to rattle off in his 2 minutes in that kind of Paul Joseph Watson, hostage-reading-a-script-at-gunpoint style. Nothing but hot air and huffing their own farts these people. I notice he didn't turn up to the next meetings when we were campaigning. It's the "I want to speak to the manager" of politics, just shaming people for not aligning their politics to their desire to not be bothered by anything in life because they are blinkered, selfish little shits. The only answer is to tell them to accept that other people want different things in life, and if they don't like it and aren't willing to fight for an alternative then they can gently caress off. It won't convince them, but some people just need to be rudely shut down.
