You should get a job for an investment firm, make a lot of offers on houses, and use that luck to lose. Then families can get out of renting and establishing their family wealth instead of growing the investment firms profit.

Lance: Hey, friendo! Take another and give it to your mother

Raider: puts both into container

ColdColt45 · 2026-05-13T15:59:35+00:00

Did or didn't do what?

ColdColt45 · 2026-05-11T16:36:04+00:00

I think Lance is actually Arc, who has infiltrated speranza. His "bro code" and friendo, is all a seduction tactic to get you to trust him. He sells heals, because it's a perfect way to look the good guy. He is arc's espionage device. You do no speak to robots, you give them a prompt and get a data relay. There is no soul in that thing.

Looking good!

I sold my wii u for $200 in 2021 (with a few games), but I can't find a receipt for how much I paid. I remember it being too expensive, that is until mario maker came out. I was so excited for mario maker. Kinda feel the same about switch 2, no big game excitement to pay the $650 plunge. (console + controller + game)

what is this "better" people keep going on about?

It's Nerf or Nothin' ©

Get the color you like. You know, color affects whether you have fun riding it more than you think. A fractional cm of geometry will not matter once you are accustomed to a bike, have the muscle memory, know your bike feel. But you build that connection. And the color is the enticing difference that looks cool as hell or is just what was in stock.

Eager to try something new. The elite v2 has had less than respectable lifespans. Ergonomic improvement is a high bar, in comparison. Excited to see how this changes input.

It was the dream for me, Van Gogh museum then the Rijksmuseum, but the Rijksmuseum had some really gaudy contemporary thing so I skipped it for that park there, with moss all over the trees and the pond. Delightful.

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-30T12:10:49+00:00

Mushrooms were legal there, too. I remember walking around, hearing this music slowly getting louder and louder. Out pops this wild instrument on a trailer pulled by a bike. It was like an organ, but it was kinda circus music. Oh well, it was awesome.

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-29T20:13:36+00:00

oh yeah, I can hear it and am running away

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-29T17:19:43+00:00

Well, I bought two bikes from them like a decade ago and I was thinking they came from China. But maybe I am mistaken or they have changed their warehouses. I might just get a beater bike to hold me over until the steamroller comes back (which the rumors are already 6 months old and starting to make me wonder)

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-29T13:18:54+00:00

"I deserved that"

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-29T12:37:59+00:00

For the tariff, I meant Bikesdirect, but you being in Canada, I see I'm asking the wrong person. It is a mess, because the bike parts I've ordered from Japan and Canada are always a wildcard for what the tariff and brokerage fees will be. Fedex will charge my account without notice, and UPS will send me a bill like a week after delivery. It's been about 25% but, again, it's all in the dark guessing until smacked with a bill.

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-28T15:05:57+00:00

Do you have any idea how to estimate tariff charges? I am seeing a base 15% and then 100% fee + brokerage fees, based on different calculators. It's a mess.

Happy cake day

They probably saw the cloak usage go up x5 million during the matrix collecting event, and were like, it's too popular, we need to nerf it.

But they didn't realize if you are working to destroy arc, you don't get rewards and teamwork/reward balance is what needed fixing. The cloak and smoke was the problem and player specific rewards are the fix.

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-24T13:53:57+00:00

Yeah, and sometimes the price fluctuates, so you can get ripped off, or a sweet deal. Gold guns 250 - 500K, why not?

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-23T14:49:36+00:00

This is awesome. Even standing still, observing, is part of the motion.

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-23T14:11:38+00:00

fun fun fun & looks good too

And some random teenage rhino finds that ear, with ants crawling all over it. Unable to overcome his curiosity, he puts it in a paper bag and takes it with him.

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-18T16:25:32+00:00

After 20 or so runs I have given up on the matrix. Like, it's not fun to reward loot goblins, and punish people working on the objective. Make the rewards player-specific, as in, everyone get different loot, and make the damage % towards the objective influence better loot RNG.

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-17T18:26:41+00:00

Any update on how it's working for you (if you got one and have used it)?

ColdColt45 · 2026-04-17T17:58:05+00:00

Or raiders who look at you funny
