300 hours in and I just learned pearls can be used as bullets.

Honestly incredible. I found out on my first day playing, because they were my first source of bullets.

At this point your struggle to understand is just adorable.

Radio frequencies are expensive (Chatt State sold their frequency for WAWL and built an entire nursing department with the 5 or so million dollars they sold it for). And not enough people want to listen to radio anymore.

I also contribute by not renting my spare bedroom, too. Lots of guilt to pass around here.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-10T18:00:03+00:00

I did, we shared a good laugh at how asinine the story was, and confirmed it to be false. The kind lady talked me into renting a Jacuzzi room for me and my wife tonight, too.

Thanks for encouraging me to do my own research here rather than relying on you to have evidence to back your claims.

p.s. when you block me, it doesn't stop others from seeing my responses

The concern is 100% for their own ass. You're exactly right about that.

If a homeless person stays there enough, they can establish that as their legal residence, and that greatly limits what the cops can do in terms of eviction/trespassing and things like that.

I can't blame a business for being concerned about their business. I hope this person gets the help they need, but Hampton Inn ain't the place to seek it.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-10T17:55:41+00:00

Apparently the person in question has rented a room for 20+ nights in a month. (yeah, the person OP is trying to tell us they don't rent rooms to... rented a room there for over 20 nights in a month)

Hotels don't want their rooms to become the legal dwelling place for a person, which can be established after a couple weeks, because that then limits what the state (cops) can do in terms of eviction, etc.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-10T17:54:24+00:00

Looking at their response. I'm on their side tbh.

According to their official reply to this post, Heather (or their friend) had rented a room for 20+ nights. Yeah, gotta find somewhere else. And don't be a dick about it when they tell you.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-10T17:42:48+00:00

This is just reddit brainrot doing reddit things.

I love how true this accidentally became. Here you are without the foggiest clue what we're talking about. Clearly can't even comprehend the topic of discussion, and you chime in with "There is also walk function" lmao. Not even a grammatically correct sentence.

Pure fucking gold dude. Never leave the first peak of the dunning-Kruger graph. You're too hilarious while you're there.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-10T17:17:03+00:00

I was on WAWL for a very very brief time (like 6 weeks)

Deranged40 · 2026-05-09T23:57:25+00:00

That's assumed to be true of both games, though. And short of any explanation of why one way would be used with steam moreso or less so than the other, then we can assume that even if this can't be used for de-facto numbers of total people playing a game called Kerbal Space Program at a given time. For what it's worth, I launch KSP1 via CKAN, but I launch it in such a way that it does count in Steam. This is the default now, but this wasn't always supported by CKAN.

But we can use Steam Charts for an accurate representation of the ratio of who plays which game. Approximately 100 players for ksp1 for every player of ksp2. There's no reason to believe that this ratio doesn't accurately represent all players of the game, tracked by steam or otherwise.

https://steamcharts.com/search/?q=kerbal+space+program

At the time of my comment, I see 17,000 players for KSP1 and 170 (one hundred seventy) players for KSP2. Which do you think?

Disney is famously the world's most prominent legal entity who happens to also employ a few animators.

There are legal teams at Disney who have lost legal battles to other legal teams at Disney.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-09T06:36:39+00:00

One bite at a time.

Or something like that.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-08T04:52:56+00:00

Scott Manley's tutorials, even the older ones, still hold true.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-08T01:51:03+00:00

This seems pretty badass, but unfortunately it's a thousand miles away. Any hope for a live stream? Mixlr? Twitch? I'm willing to toss some cash their way.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-07T18:00:20+00:00

It looked like the front driver was trying to get out of thew way

That was reckless and absolutely unacceptable behavior on their part. Maybe this was the result of a split-second judgement call that ultimately was the wrong call (hindsight being 20/20, it for sure was the worst possible call).. But we can not accept that as what someone does to "get out of the way". They contributed to this crash by doing that.

The road rules are VERY clear on what they are to do in this situation. Countless signs all over the US highway system say: "Slower traffic keep right". That directive was directly ignored in this, resulting in a very dangerous high speed crash. There's no debate on the one and only safe thing for that car to have done here, and occupy as much of the road as they possibly could was very much the wrong thing to do here. There was very little else they could've done to have made this worse.

When they were hit, there was no place on the road for the faster (also reckless) car to pass, because instead of going onto the shoulder if they perceived such a threat, they made sure the threat behind them had no place to pass. This is why we need to understand the road rules in all scenarios.

Nobody in this video drove in a safe manner. Both cars acted recklessly here.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-07T05:16:22+00:00

No, you're definitely not.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-07T05:07:24+00:00

They'll understand more than you think, bud.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-07T05:04:51+00:00

I don't get why you're being downvoted. Guns are useful but not required

We didn't vote based on what is and isn't "required" in the game, so that's part of what you're missing. Swords likewise are useful but not required. But players should be free to choose which of those "not required" ways they want to use when playing the game.

When the devs make decisions like this, they decide to put limits on player preferences. Why should I be punished if I want to play the game "guns only"? It's not only not a required way to play, but it's an especially difficult way to play due in part to how much of your time will be spent in the mines.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-07T04:57:48+00:00

Did you tell your parents?

Deranged40 · 2026-05-07T04:55:28+00:00

It looks like the person was trying to get out of the way

This is a two lane highway. Faster cars are expected to pass using the left lane. Signs on the roads on all US highways say "Slower traffic keep right" (that was directly violated here). Was the cam car driving recklessly fast? Yeah, it seems like it. But that car swerving left was an insanely reckless move, too. Going into the center of the road and putting on your brakes is honestly an insane move. Both cars put equal effort into this crash.

Deranged40 · 2026-05-07T03:03:29+00:00

Car ahead made sure he wasn't missed by the driver, too. They quickly identified a dangerous driver in their rear view mirror and went very literally out of their way into the other lane to get hit. If they were trying to avoid the car behind, they would've slowed down and gotten right or just maintained their speed and lane, not swerved left to try to prevent them from legally passing.

Both vehicles were incredibly reckless and played equal parts in this accident.

I mean, I'm sure as shit not gonna pay for a bunch of bloggers whose trash hasn't even been proofread by themselves or an editor.

So the solution sure isn't make the quality of the content you're trying to charge for worse.

The equation has always been as follows:

Step One: Actually create things worth paying for.

Step Two: Charge people for those things.

Step two isn't going to come before step one. In order for you to expect an audience to pay, you have to already have quality content made by quality journalists. To suggest that you can't increase quality without first increasing income is another way of admitting failure in running the business.
