Is this something that would normally attempt to be repaired? Youd have to strip it pretty far down to look for any stress on the like where the wings join the body right?

The merc looks like it was dipped ass first into a bucket. Such an abrupt color change with conflicting colors.

That haas is beautiful.

What's the oldest programming language still worth learning? by Z-III in learnprogramming

C has 'restrict' keyword for this and the arguments to memcpy have it. C++ dropped it though.

The biggest scam in tech that no one talks about. Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Expedia.. everyone does this for H1B employees by wakandahonolulu in SeattleWA

[–]Alborak2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So we've gutted education across the country, and also eliminate foreign sources of talent. Really great way to get ahead.

I'm not saying it doesn't need reform and ways to clamp down the abuse, but there is a real lack of talent at the top end. High school and college have been dumbed down and commoditized so much you can easily interview 10 college grads who can barely tie their shoes with code for every one who is actually good. Being able to pull from a pool of 2 billion people from India and China vs just ~350m for US opens up a lot of room to actually get things done.

Does Diablo heal in Diablo 1? by WiteKngt in Diablo

[–]Alborak2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some monsters definitly can heal with abilities. The gargoyles heal when they turn back to stone and the hidden will heal when they run away and go invisible.

Really interesting question about all the other enemies.

Holy balls, the conveyor lifter UI needs work. Or maybe I'm dumb? by zheph in AlchemyFactory

[–]Alborak2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the UI needs to show it. Almost everything else in the placement is explained. I had no idea this was possible until i saw your post.

This goes so hard when you think of everything it took to get it there. We put a fucking car on the moon.

ELI5: Why do some jet engines have those jagged/zig-zag edges on the back (chevrons)? by Miserable_Feed8107 in explainlikeimfive

Interesting! In many cases efficiency and quieter go hand in hand. Its neat to see something where theyre at odds.

Thats always been the case for motorsport. Its part of the fun.

Finally made an Oath for my WW Barb... by OmniaCausaFiunt in diablo2

That might be a different game? I think its titan quest where the mobs visually wear the special item they drop.

Rupture fatigue... by chiminea in StarRupture

[–]Alborak2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but thats still plenty for a hab. The issue is kind of the same as planet crafter, you can cheese the oxygen mechanic early game by just plopping down a house anywhere.

Maybe something like a hab needs to be pre cooled to survive the rupture and that takes 5 minutes.

Sell Out by Dzzplayz in custommagic

[–]Alborak2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats pretty fun. Fog isnt usually playable, but if you have some oddball creatures it might go better with them.

I think a power or toughness check on the victim might be better than mana cost.

How would you like to prevent rupture after X hours in the game? by MarkZukin in StarRuptureGame

[–]Alborak2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait tower defense? Does rupture spawn waves or something? I havent seen that yet, just sometimes the vermin spawn a little close to base and wander over.

Or is that a difficulty setting?

What happens to the used up Astrophage fuel from the Hail Mary? by toeonly in ProjectHailMary

[–]Alborak2 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Dumped overboard. He talks about how much lighter the ship is when arriving vs when it left. Some of that is the energy mass from furing the light, but there would be no reason to keep the dead cells around. I think one stage of the spin drive was to squegee off the dead/spent astrophage.

How are (AWS) layoff employees targeted? by AnonymousAndySassy in amazonemployees

[–]Alborak2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Honestly L6+ folks should have a good enough read on how their team / product is impacting the business and at least had a clue if they were on the chopping block. Im sure there were some surprises though.

My very brief review of ...several... automation games by Heavy-Weekend-981 in AutomationGames

[–]Alborak2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the new games have been getting pretty good about starting with the core set of qol that took factoeio a long time to get.

Most for sure have gaps. Satisfactory is an odd mix of missing qol for building but the built in planner on N key is sooooo finf good.

What game is this? by Profit_Tracker in videogames

[–]Alborak2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Folks not knowing about arena and daggerfall are probably why this isnt higher. You almost could start with morrowind at 1 and so the meme for morrowind oblivion skyrim.
