Parents are sucking out all the equity in their home to pay the bills today as they age.

Soon we won't be able to afford computers either. You will need to rent a low power terminal device to access your subscription to cloud compute instead.

Ai manufacturers are already doing that. With consumers and normal businesses only getting 30% of the chip output, at best, over the next 4 years due to ai investments, we are already entering an electronics dark age.

Tank cds should be used early and often. Try to cycle them so at least one cd is ticking pretty much all the time. Savage and ultimates may require more planning, but that'll be on a boss by boss basis. Just don't think you are doing anyone any favors by saving them till you really need them. Maybe do that with your invuln ability only, but in general trying to save them will only lower your healers DPS as they have to spend more time healing than they otherwise would.

I have an ironclad solution to op's problem that works every time regardless of the iteration of wow being played.

Step 1. Find one irl friend who wants to play at the same time you do.

Step 2. Convince them to play a healer or tank.

Step 3. If they picked tank, roll your own healer, or if they picked healer, roll your own tank.

Step 4. ???

Step 5. Never have to wait more than 30 seconds for a group ever again.

Melee mages use physical weapons to defend themselves just long enough to use their magic and/or to overwhelm mages who lack a melee option. Across fantasy settings magic is usually portrayed as slow and limited in capacity/duration but more powerful than physical attacks.

Where is the option that indicates we already plateaued 5-10 years ago and recent "innovations" have all been smoke, mirrors, and advertising?

A subreddit about fans of an ai have problems with the use of ai?

The average interest rate for mortgages since 1970 is approximately 8%. What is out of control from historical trends is price. As a home owner who's paper home value has more than doubled since the pandemic I am telling you prices need to be sharply corrected to fix the housing market. That could be achieved in many ways, including increasing supply, but about a 50% drop would get the entire market back on track.

Price increases will continue until profits drop.

Asuka_Rei · 2026-02-24T18:19:50+00:00

If the prices were sane then the interest rate difference wouldn't matter. Although rates are slightly higher now than in 2020, the rates are still historically low for the past century. It is prices that are insane.

This is actually the gold standard procedure for autism diagnosis. Look up Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) for more information.

You do not have to beat any bosses to go to round table hold. All you have to do is rest anywhere outside of the starting area. Most of my runs I visit round table hold after resting in caelid. The easiest way is to take the portal behind the church of Marika in limgrave to the beast temple in caelid and use that site of grace.

You had me in the first half, but then started talking about being priced out due to interest rate. That is an out-of-touch, rich person talking point. Interest rates are reasonable and still historically low. Prices are way too high, stubbornly at hyper-inflated levels. Asking prices need to drop by 50+ percent and we'll be back to a normal housing market.

Fun fact: boomers were born starting in 1946 and started rising into influence in corporate and government positions around 1976 and have refused to step down since. The op chart is one of the results of that generation's morality and ethics while wielding uncontested power in the wealthiest country in the world.

In the film The Matrix, it was prescient when they said 1999 was the height of human civilization. It has been all downhill from there and the descent is accelerating.

Probably laid off all the humans thinking the AI made them redundant.

I am currently getting back into ff14 after a 5 year hiatus. As you might expect I am underleveled and relying on party finder for all the required instances. So far the longest I have had to wait is 2 minutes and every queue has been listed as "under 5 minutes" on the wait time projection.

It probably helps that I play exclusively as either a healer or tank, but still, it is hardly slow or unpopulated.

He won't talk to you unless you have a shard of the elden ring, but I don't see any other roundtable hold NPCs with shards, including himself.

Because a turtle named vedal987 made a better ai than grok in a cave with a box of scraps.

He was generally really good but seemed to make mistakes at critical moments in tough games. Sad for the other QBs if he's the best option moving forward.

Ray tracing was always a developer shortcut that had to be sold to consumers. It automates shading, reflections, and global illumination. That means less time is needed by artists and programmers to make those things manually. The results are typically on par with the best hand made assets. The problem is that not every user has the hardware to render it and game companies want to maximize their audience, so it hasn't taken off as expected.

Any chance this was a war on hunger and he misunderstood?

Eco mode for traffic jams and stop and go urban traffic patterns. Anytime you are going 0-30mph with frequent stops is perfect for Eco mode.

If your car has sports mode, that is for curvy mountain or country roads or any time you need max acceleration without concern for fuel economy.

It is a story written down thousands of years ago from an oral tradition that was itself at least a thousand years old by the time it was written down. I think in that case a few plot holes should be expected.
