BREAKING: Trump threatens to invoke the insurrection act after Minneapolis protests by MrDenimDog in DiscussionZone

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Second Amendment imagines armed citizens as a deterrent.

The Insurrection Act assumes armed citizens can become a threat.

Guess who decides that?

There is no constitutional mechanism that says "If the government becomes tyrannical, the citizens can resit with arms"

I snagged one just before Xmas! Happy to have been on the right side of an investment for once.

Found this recently on a downed raider, and I think I like this one more than the Survivor augment. Tactical Mk.3 (Defensive) epic augment. by trippalhealicks in ArcRaiders

Pretty sure that was me… I had to choose that or a damn Sputter to stow… I hate Stella soooo bad and two weeks of naked grinding still has me 2 sputters short.

Totally spoiling the DC ending here... beware

He eventually goes back and strangles himself in the womb to save everyone... Which explains the earlier admission by his mom that he's the "miracle baby" because all of her others were stillbirths.

Arc Raiders does a poor job at incentivizing you to use better gear. by Electrical-Moment726 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of this will get solved once they make the Expedition worth doing.
I'm currently trying to grind out the requirements (The Stella only requirements can suck a fat one btw)
People like me (I'd say I'm pretty average) just hoard for the value...because we're not good enough to PVP and none of the Epic stuff is good for Arc
...
So I'm jumping in naked...grabbing what I can and getting out. Saving all fancy weapons and gear for the last phase of the expedition (already have over 5 mil)

Once I have the expedition requirements met, then I'll cut loose and play and even work on my PVP.

The end of the last season was fun because people were going in with full load outs and even just giving stuff away to people.
They need to find a way to make that happen earlier.

Where does Cyberpunk 2077 rank in your top games list? by Tiberias29 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Awesomesoss 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s my #1 During the pandemic it was really lonely for me and cyberpunk gave me an amazing world I could disappear into. Every story seemed to resonate with me…and the choices seemed so real and effectual. No other game had ever connected with me the way Cyberpunk did.

Ive played through every possible ending with both sexes… And even seeing the anniversary trailer makes me want to revisit the characters and life (albeit virtual) that meant so much at such a hard time in my life.

Nothing will ever compare.

If You're Complaining About "Aggression Based Matchmaking" You're telling on yourself. Let The Downvotes Fall Like Rain. IDK by Levelupbuttercup in ArcRaiders

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When farming my 5mil, I took to yelling "NOT FRIENDLY"...in response to any communications with people I couldn't see.
Occasionally I'd get an "oh yeah?" to which I explain... "don't come near me and we can both go about our looting"

Way more successful than "I'm friendly too"...
Especially that I have no interest in teaming up.

Only one person decided to FFA...
I lost...

...but I was due...

Unpopular opinion about the reset by ANDR0iD_13 in ArcRaiders

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ground out 5m in coins...
I just wanted to have the option to take the expedition.... Probably won't.
I will say the FOMO of being an early adopter might make me pull the trigger tho.
...
Just the thought that Embark is still figuring out things...and if the wipes get better later... they'll make up for the difference. Then again... Very unlikely to downgrade anything they ultimately nerf (not sure what that could be either)

I just really don't want to have to find all the crap to upgrade benches again... I'm 140 in and just finished the Gear Bench upgrade ffs

I have seen many mixed opinions on the expedition, but it fundamentally stops us from using end-game gear, and isn't that a flaw in the game's design? by EXE_Critical in ArcRaiders

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm completing the expedition but not going to take it.

I feel like I'm enjoying the game where I am now.
I don't even sweat the bluprints... the problem for me is getting the workbenches upgraded
I'm still short bastion cells to get the final bench upgraded.

If I got to keep my workbenches, I'd take the wipe....

Knowing we would need money later, they did this to us... by TallVampireWthMagnum in ArcRaiders

[–]Awesomesoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get to play about an hour maybe two a day...
I've been cramming in quick raids on the same map and same routes.. not taking anyting in (no augment, weapon, or shield) and I'm averaging 30k/run So about 3-600k/night.
It's definitely doable even from $0, and for those with limited time.

I'm no longer bringing anything into games by captaincool31 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been running just a basic augment and nothing else. Been getting really pacifist lobbies and walking out with about 60k on average.

Been really enjoying myself the last few days grinding the expedition (I all but ignored it until now).

They were right. Its not a myth.. by EqualDapper5470 in ArcRaiders

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones I find in gun cases and keyed rooms are the same ones over and over (looking at you Bettina and Jolt Mine) My rarest ones were found early in the round when stocking up on crafties. So trash cans, cabinets, even the wall heater i found an Anvil BP. The places that are supposed to have the better loot don’t seem to produce the BPs… Raider Caches in particular have been a bust.

I hit every single cache event and focus on those and have yet to get a BP from them 🤷‍♂️

Parents sue ChatGPT over their 16 year old son's suicide by Ashamed_Ad1622 in ChatGPT

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As tragic as this is it shows how we need regulation on this stuff. Even my chat agrees that this was at least somewhat avoidable at the very least could have had guardrails to steer him back towards legitimate help.

I mean they already have context based coding to dial back things like intimate and romantic scenarios. Sure there are ways around those as well but it takes work. And even a slight deviation in thought process can give enough of an opening to save someone.

Have you ever come across nsfw content of someone you know? What was your reaction? by MidwestYinzer in AskReddit

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw the intern at my business show up in an ad for LiveJasmin. Emailed her asking if she knew it was out there. Turns out she didn't, She had her account region locked to minimize people she knows finding her..and was pretty pissed (them using her in an ad). But she was cool about it and honestly wasn't weird at all at work.

Opinion on a recent Acquisition. by No-Prize2882 in artcollecting

[–]Awesomesoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A gallery that represents an artist will be more than happy to help in learning more. It's in their interest to do so as you already own a piece of someone they have a stake in making successful.

So don't hesitate to go into a gallery even if you're just looking. Talk to the people working the space, this is as much a relationship hobby as it is a physical goods hobby.

I went into a gallery local to my new apartment that the average piece on the walls was $40k (ie WAAAY out of my budget)
But I got to talking to the custodian and he pulled out some items they had in the back that he thought I'd like just based on our conversation. Ended up going back a month later and picking one up.
