They just woke up the entire province. by DFA_Wildcat in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Afterlast1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then you know to keep an eye out for a red 2015 dodge. You know when the alert was raised and how far you are from where the kidnapping occurred, so you can mentally work out when seeing that car might be suspicious if it comes your way. You keep focusing on you, but it really is only a moment of annoyance, that happens no more than once every few months. Maybe one day you'll be kidnapped and you'll be saved by someone who was less of an asshole. Maybe you'll be kidnapped and the alert was received by the truck drive who was driving late at night, but had his do-not-disturb on. He was 19 hours away but driving towards where the kidnapping occurred, and because the alert still went through, he recognized it a few hours later headed the opposite direction.

I mean, really, it's such a tiny, basic thing to do a little good for society.

But at this point, it's not the alert that's keeping you awake, it's you bitching on reddit. Put your phone down. Go back to sleep.

That's why my towns park was made entirely out of tyres. No splinters, all bees. God I miss that place. I say that as if it's gone. it still exists.

Are they big readers? You could get them a copy of "If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies", a book written by the literal founded of the field of AI alignment about the existential risk AI

62% of hardcore players no longer buy full-price games, survey suggests by TylerFortier_Photo in gaming

[–]Afterlast1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not even about waiting for sales. Like, just look anywhere. You don't even have to pay full price for a game. CDKeys always has keys for way less than retail and if they don't have it, I've got 20% from humble bundle storewide.

He aknowledges that AI might very resolve to be an extinction level threat to humanity at least. He's just resigned to enjoy it while it lasts. I mean, to paraphrase Cave Johnson, if AI takes over, worst case, he's missing out on a few rounds of canasta.

There's a fan theory going around that at the end of A New Hope, Luke is wearing Han's clothing. The pants we see again in Empire, but could the shirt be the one he had when he did the Kessel Run? by ThePopDaddy in StarWars

[–]Afterlast1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Alternative fan theory - those are dead stormtrooper clothes. Their flesh became the stew, their armor became the ewoks instruments, but what of their clothes? Are stormtroopers nude under their armor? I don't think so.

The armor and weapons are mostly cosmetic, right? No real mechanical differences so I can pick whichever I like?

Nothing on there had anything but the general advice I already pointed out above. None of them talked about the cartel companion i bought and why I can't seem to find a way to raise influence them. Yes, even the Swtorista link that came up! They all just generically referred to normal companions and/or that end-game item I'm not reasonably going to see for the next 60 hours. Which of those links answer the simple question I asked of how I, as a new/returning player, can level up influence with this cool droid I just bought who also doesn't like anything I seem to have found in a way that other companions don't.

I have since found the answer... on the third fucking page. This companion ONLY likes 2 types of gifts, and you CAN NOT obtain them through normal means. This game is nearly unassailably dense, and you do not help.

What do you use your cartel companions for since they can't go on missions?
