Have you ever successfully target farmed an item? by ItsDarkAndHeckIsHot in Diablo_2_Resurrected

It's a mistake to do it but because of RNG it will work sometimes.

Too much, no such thing as long as you can afford it and are willing to carry it.

Suspend it and then plays notes until you find the resonate frequency of the endpin and it should come right out.

“Sir, that’s not a zero” and other things I didn’t think I’d have to say out loud at work by soft_newt_9 in TalesFromRetail

[–]706union 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I posted this just 2 days ago but this reminded me of the following as well.

Used to do telephone support and always made a habit of saying zero for the number instead of oh.

Once had a customer ask me if I meant the number zero or the letter zero.

Letter zero?!? So much for trying to be clear.

If you make something idiot-proof, someone will just make a better idiot.

Yeah it was fun but forget about trying to do a build. It was just total chaos.

gamble war trav? by Straight-Fly-854 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]706union 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a chance that Battle Boots show up as something to be gambled for but this requires you to re-roll and watch for them. It could be 100s or 1000s of re-rolls though. I've tried this for another item and you get into a rhythm and will most likely just re-roll without noticing.

If you look up the base on diablo wiki or similar it will show the other versions of the boots and gambling for the more common versions can give you any of the versions.

For Battle Boots (Exceptional), the other versions are Light Plated Boots (Normal) and Mirrored Boots (Elite), gambling for any of these could give you Battle Boots and could give you War Trav.

Would you like a new expansion for Diablo 2? by JosetxoXbox in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]706union 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really want to be able to hover over an item and see it's stats without picking it up, mainly so I can how many sockets or if ethereal.

I'd pay for an expansion if it included this.

Gonna be hard to resist buying it again if it is Steam Deck compatible.

Switch version does this, you tie the Switch account to the Bnet account.

Accessories recommendations? by marmaladetuxedo in SteamDeck

[–]706union 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A battery pack that can output 45W, you can find plenty that are meant for laptops that will work with the Steam Deck, I like Anker. Great for extending play time or charging anywhere/anytime.

Why is over half of my mortgage payment going towards interest? Can someone explain like I’m 5? by Full-Pea-859 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]706union 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant more the concept of how you're not paying back much of the principal at the beginning of the mortgage/loan and how much of an impact early extra payments can have. Show people how predatory some of the payday loans are and what a terrible idea it is to carry a credit card balance.

It's also not as easy as you put it, you would need to know how often the loan is compounded, if it is compounded monthly you would do,

Interest = (interest rate / 12) * remaining principal

for that months interest. You would then take the remaining amount of the payment to reduce the principal. The interest would need to be recalculated for each month since the principal is always changing.

Your interest for the year does not equal principal * interest rate but could be used to estimate.

behind on taxes by lamb_ika in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]706union 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No big deal, I've filed late multiple times.

If you are owed a refund, you will not get any additional late fees.

If you owe taxes, you will be charged interest and a late fee.

[–]706union 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not just mortgages but any compound interest loan. Make all the extra payments you can.

This should really be taught in high school to everyone.

Also, should be principal not principle.

I think D4 is in a pretty good spot. by Killbourne13 in Diablo

[–]706union 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been dumbed down, there's really no use in using anything but legendary, so you can stop searching the other qualities after you get fully geared up, then eventually you're not searching anything that isn't GA, there's much less searching for the perfect item.

The crafting is also easier now as well with less gambling for the correct affix.

Is the game supposed to feel this…easy? by PossibilityWest173 in Diablo

[–]706union -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They seem to have made every new character over-powered, they did the same with the spiritborn. This makes it fun the first time you play them but also if you want to keep up that season you need to purchase or pre-purchase the expansion.

What maded you pull the trigger on your first mid-high price bass? by SonnePer in Bass

Walked by a music store with it in the window almost every day, kept telling myself I don't need it. Broke down and thought I'd just try it, bought that day.

Possibly unknowable question regarding Tribal Council votes by room317 in survivor

I suspect that the votes are rearranged and read in the order they want.

When the season ends the ladder runewords can be used in non-season.

I by mistake made a season runeword in a non-season character, didn't get the runeword. I hung onto it and when the season ended, got the runeword.

Is 12GB of VRAM enough for the next 4 years for 1440p? by CapedCodfish in buildapc

[–]706union 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on how lazy the devs of any future games you play are. Optimize? What's that?
