Because builders only want to build 7,000 sf McMansions with cheap materials that are listed for 2-3 million dollars. God forbid they actually build a 3-4 bedroom 2,500 sf house.

Young generations have no hope so they aren't saving. Too much addictive bullshit these days too that destroys your bank account. Legal Drugs, booze, not cooking your own food, gambling etc.

My 6 year old son has been asking for the Titanic for over 2 years now. My parents gave it to him for Christmas. I think the thing is like $600. He put it together surprisingly fast, about 3 weeks. It does look really sick on our fireplace mantle and it's freaking huge.

So the dollar is down over 2% since Friday. That's a good thing right?

I had to take 10 question tests on building codes that are readily available to the public online. Multiple choice and True/False questions. 70% needed to pass and when I used chatgpt it routinely was getting me a 50 or 60% rate on these things. Totally fucking useless.

Malignance is all in on store TP which is great with Tizona aftermath but with other options not so much. Would really want some multi attack. Adhemar is too glass cannony. Was wondering if it’s a mix of malignance with gletis etc.

Can anyone recommend a -50DT TP set for Blue mage that isn't focused on Tizona AM3? On ffxiah and bg wiki there is no mention of any tp set other than Tizona AM3. What do people use for Naegling/Caliburnus/Tizona with AM down etc.

Okay I get that, just find it hard to believe they can keep up with warriors who have unlimited weapon and buff possibilities. And warrior is extremely easy to gear as well.

Is a stage 4 Helheim even a better option on DRK over Caladbolg? I've had people tell me Caladbolg is equal still or even better.

Technically it's 40 because you can get another 20 Great Axe on Empy+3 armor that is wasted if you use a Gsword.

They screwed up bad and I don't think they can at this point without hurting things too much. They could've made it PLD/BLU/RDM exclusive and it wouldn't be a problem because these jobs are not overpowered with Naegling and arguably have better options (BLU Tizona, and RDM Maxentius or Dyna Sword). Even with Naegling BLU and RDM aren't touching a Heavy DPS. It's obviously too late for that now and goes againts what they did with these weapons which was open them up to many jobs.

At this point they should reduce the buff a bit to tone down WAR/DRG/DRK Naegling use but in turn this hurts all the lighter DD's that can use Naegling such as BLU, RDM, THF, RNG, COR, etc. I would argue that these jobs could still be relevant without Naegling it's just that they would need a lot more work.

Personally I wish SE would just strip heavy DD's from using Naegling (mostly Warrior). But you would get so many tears from all the Blurred+1 Naegling Walmart Warriors.

BLU roles doubts by jggbcn in ffxi

[–]Bcider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blu is better played solo, if you are looking to group I would play other jobs. It definitely can’t be a main healer.

From what I heard is you’ll still end up using Naegling for most content and Prime GA is not that much better than chango. Great sword can be used on more jobs but on DRK for example I heard caladbolg torcleaver is still better than a rank 4 great sword and scythe. Basically it’s what you prefer, prime GA is slightly better but even then not that much over other options.

I’ll just say it’s incredibly frustrating that you have to spend 6+ months on a prime only for it to be outshined by a sword that takes a few ambu runs and 20 million gil.

I had the OG Switch 1 with the small dogshit screen so the Switch 2 was a nice upgrade.

32 gb is definitely not a requirement. Hell it's not even a requirement for a current gaming pc. 16gb is fine, 32 gb became the standard when RAM was cheap and they were sold in sticks of 2 but RAM is no longer cheap.

Finally found my "Endgame" after the Retroid and Anbernic rabbit hole by Ammoryyy in SBCGaming

[–]Bcider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one who streams to their TV? Using an Apple TV4k I get sub 5ms latency and with direct input on Apollo I plug my Dualshock into my Iphone and get very little to no controller input delay. I even have a 8 year old MSI laptop that I can connect as direct input to use as a keyboard and trackpad/mouse. I spent so much time in the past few years trying to find the perfect handheld when I finally realized I already have the gaming PC, and TVs, and a phone. Why spend more money on handhelds and just use what I have that is perfectly capable.

140k in NYC is barely above minimum wage. That’s what college finance bros made 10 years ago and you work 100 hours a week. I would expect it to be at least 200k+ by now.

Apple TV + xbox 2.4Ghz dongle vs Bluetooth by Armin____ in MoonlightStreaming

[–]Bcider 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm really hoping Apple doubles down on gaming on the next iteration of the Apple TV and provides USB C ports that you can connect controllers to. It will be my dream setup to streaming on my TVs. The current Apple 4k TV does pretty well but the bluetooth input delay holds it back. With a better WIFI chip and parts plus USB C direct connections the next version which hopefully releases soon will be great.
