The tow was (rip) the bar. That’s wild, you can literally see the change happening in real time. If you guys do work on the radar regularly we’ve probably met haha, small world.

I left not too long ago, it’s gotten significantly warmer. Rained every week of summer. I think it hit 60 one day. The tow is closed because the permafrost underneath shifted and the building is cracking in half.

Thule?

5 years? Mon frere it came out December of 2020.

All authority is derived from the monopolization of violence.

They really need a “start me after Konpeki Plaza” mode with a few thousand €$ and a handful of perk points thrown in.

The story is genuinely good but really drags on after you’ve seen it once or twice. I have the “skip dialogue” button setup to a macro that spams it like 50 times and a quick button on my mouse to trigger it.

It’s all pretty baffling when you realize there are multiple genuinely good and well thought out builds in the game that are effectively mutually exclusive without a way to reset your perks, so you really need to restart the game to see them, but this is my third run through and I can’t imagine doing this again any time soon.

Depends on the cost of living and state taxes in an area. Usually it’s $3.50-$5.00 a gallon/~4 liters. At the gas stations in Germany on American military bases it’s about $4.50 a gallon right now.

Nobody goes to Starbucks for good coffee, they go because it’s the same everywhere. Sometimes I want to go get a great coffee somewhere they know how to pull a decent shot, and sometimes I want brownish sugarmilk.

Have they been difficult to get? I’ve always been vaguely interested but never actually looked into getting one.

The end of WW2 was a complex political issue, and the atomic bombs were not the ‘press here, end war’ that most of us believe.

The Japanese we’re holding out hope (stupidly) that the Soviet Union would negotiate a conditional surrender with the united States as the end of the imperial system was unacceptable to them. The US had floated that if there was an unconditional surrender, that the imperial system would stay intact, but wanted it to seem like a US condition, not a Japanese one, because that would be a conditional surrender.

The Soviets always intended to invade, but were held by a nonaggression pact they made with the Japanese. The US pressured the Soviets very hard to violate this and invade Manchuria.

There was literally a Japanese war cabinet convened already when news of Nagasaki reached them. We have actual primary source for their reactions. They did not care.

Only once the second bomb dropped and Manchuria was invaded did some of the cabinet manage to convince the emporer to intervene which was extremely rare.

I live in Germany and I have no idea what you’re talking about for the first thing, maybe you mean yield-to-right in unmarked intersections or the priority road system? I’m not really sure. In either case you are just mentally inserting yield signs based on standard rules.

The stoplight thing I feel in my soul though. The amount of times I’ve had to stare out my sunroof to see the light above me because I stopped on the line instead of 20 feet before it.

You can find that easily. I guarantee I could find that within 30 minutes in almost any city over 100,000.

Save in space often. There’s a semi common bug I’ve just run into that will cause your ship to vanish and it somehow retroactively removes it from all previous saves. No recreateable way to get it back. The only thing that saved me was a previous save where I was in orbit, still lost a few hours of progress.

Yeah no way. I’ve played longer than that and I haven’t even done the main quest.

Boi if it has that bling and a transparent frosty blue option it’s over, I’m buying it day one. I miss my Gameboy advanced so much, or maybe I miss being a kid, who knows.

I think there’s definitely more handcrafted content in Starfield than Skyrim, there’s also tons tons more dead space with nothing at all.

I think if there’s a patrol scanning your cargo you have to hit the system before landing, otherwise you’d fast travel your way past contraband scans. I’m having a lot of fun in the game, I agree there’s too much fast traveling though.

Ironically the BMWs here in Germany tend to use their signals in my experience

Putting aside that that whole show is pretty rough and I’ve mentally decanonized it, the guy who said it is technically a mega space nazi from the space nazi dimension so I choose to believe he just thought that Musk being an aspiring space nazi was as cool in our universe as it was in his.

99% of military walking around are not armed, in fact it would be particularly odd to see anyone but military police walking around armed. Like to the point if I saw that I’d call the military police. Especially off base.

I’m military and I support the decision to not serve us in uniform. I think it’s probably a little misguided since most of us are office drones same as anyone else, but it’s his store and I wasn’t born in the military, it was my choice* to join.

*I wanted healthcare and to pay for college.
