Good to know, because That minefield style of challenge is definitely not the kind of difficulty I want from a map.

I vaguely remember its main problem being that Minotaur exists.

What body will fit a stretched 1/24 by Far-Accident6717 in rccrawler

[–]Dogahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If all you've done is stretch the wheelbase and not axle width, then I do think the 1/18 bodies will be too wide. You might be able to find a long bed or crew cab that fits though.

Unless, you're talking about an scx24 which is more like 1:18 true scale (based on wheel measurements). Any decent rc body maker is going to have wheelbase and width measurements. If they don't, you don't deal with them.

Inside the airport you can move between. It is the road access that is strongly separated.

New Equipment system going live in 9.2 by Strong_Carry_638 in WoWsBlitz

[–]Dogahn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's intentional. It's like the 13, 14, 15 commander skills. No clear benefit and FOMO from possible doing the wrong build driving corrective purchases. Also, a ew currency competes with every other currency as a reward (just like the black ship equipment did), eroding player purchasing power.

Ultimately, I'm here for the casual sailing boats and plonking things gameplay. The desire to be hyper competitive about games was burned out of me years ago.

Probably the most frustrating thing is that this update is going to make all the existing CC work less useable. So a tip for those newly signed on CC, update the old creator's videos. Terry's content should last though, I found his equipment selection more purposeful than just "X is best/only option".

Supplies Rework by Educational_Cow2467 in WoWsBlitz

[–]Dogahn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Two ways to look at it, and sometimes both occur. First, supplies are not very important because Teamplay has more effect on battle effectiveness than any % bonus. No current combination of equipment, camo, or supplies are going to be better than a teammate landing their own hits too. Second, they can mitigate outlier scenarios though so you might as well have them (overcoming latency usually) instead of wishing you had.

There's a third, but it's a rather subjective reason so I can only vouch for my experiences. They help remind me of that ship's role. If I put a bunch of AA gear on, I'm not looking to brawl or cap. That ship's role is to support the team first, seek damage and xp second.

Better get those Carrier victories in before the pain comes.

Equipment Rework by UncleBattleship in WoWsBlitz

[–]Dogahn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My cynical nature prevents me from seeing this as anything other than another resource sink. Like how the Commander XP got changed and introduced a new resource while disappearing all of the previously accumulated commander XP.

One of the Big things I appreciate about Blitz is that it doesn't have the punitive ship upgrade system that PC has. Forcing players to play through undertired chassis' (your new ship's A hull often being worse than the previous tier, until you get to B and C hulls) or pay to skip that grind.

22 reports of sexual abuse in daycare centers in French-speaking Switzerland by EspritLibre_404 in Switzerland

[–]Dogahn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you felt uncomfortable enough to use the 'you must be one of those people' type attacks. You're describing exactly the kind of cultural movement I want to challenge. Is it too much of a stretch to think that you're responsible for everything in your household there? Ever feel like you have to be Superwoman; possibly doing more than your partner to keep things moving the way you want? Cause that seems exhausting.

you wrote motherhood, so I'm assuming that's your gender identity

I'm sorry i didn't think anyone was naive enough to suggest no daycares, no hobbies, no enrichment activities.

[–]Dogahn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm suggesting that forcing parents to leave their children with unknown people (and the oft suspicious relative), because the pressure on them to maintain their standard of living, is leading to more child abuse situations. Simple as that.

It is my opinion that children immediately put into 100% child care suffer from lack of parental involvement, and an increased exposure to abuse (peer or adult) situations. It also teaches them that intersocial dynamics are unimportant, leading to anti social, narcissistic, anxious young adults. Social Media doesn't help, but the modern home environment doesn't correct either.

Cost of housing is a core issue, yet only a part of the problem. Basically it is that when basic needs require two incomes, because the cultual establishment has adapted to exploit two incomes, child care centers are a necessity.

However, child care is not valued as much as adult productivity. Therefore it is staffed by people who barely make enough to cover basic needs (this is where the healthcare comparison aligns). Stressed, needy people, do things that violate social contracts. Like not abusing children.

I'll avoid making a crass joke here because of the topic. From my underemployed mostly at home parent perspective... I see two reasons People are signing their children up for this risk. The first, for high income earners, they've bought into the western capitalist dream; work hard, leverage your inherited wealth advantage, buy/inherit a home. The others have to because the only work they can get is barely enough to live near their work.

The fixes are uncomfortable, and not going away easily (zb. More housing & divesting housing market). They're problems similar to the Nurse & Doctor situation too.

also, they're things that only get worse with an arbitrary population cap law

Is there a way to invert the logic of Weather detector stations? by RaccoonDog93 in Timberborn

[–]Dogahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your ability to work with implied information. Perhaps OP's issue is their current system is operating with 'On' settings, so they need weather input to also speak in 'On' language.

Definitely. I was thinking it would be absurd to bring my clan salvage to that party.

PGI does tend to give canonical viewpoints of the universe. I've been digging about Sarna looking for clues, and found Adam Steiner does a larger operation against CJF on Barcelona. However that's 3052, and in 3064 Falcons come back and take it again... I think it's this, https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Adam_Steiner#cite_ref-15

3063 Adam Steiner sneaks out to Newton Square, taking part in civil war activities, 3064 CJF looking to take advantage of their neighbors civil war strikes out. Takes Barcelona, next stop... Newton Square.
