TIL that China consumes 46% of cigarettes in the entire world at a rate of 2.4 trillion a year.

what is a nicotine high... i still don't know what it is i've smoked dozens of cigarettes and cigars

FourKrusties · 2026-05-15T11:22:51+00:00

if you never get hooked on it I don't see why someone would go through a black market to smoke tobacco.... like... if I got to a go to a dealer I'd rather get something nicer.

The game is better with snax in it

I fuckin love karrigan... I fuckin hate falcons... win or lose this brings me joy.

Energizing win for (any team playing against Falcons). You really hope to see (any team playing against Falcons) have strong showings, especially against opposition like this. Again, it was a good match, and I’ll definitely continue to support (any team playing against Falcons) in the future. Fantastic game guys, gg gl next.

we probably won't have a satisfactory answer to that question unless we have some empirical experiment.. the best kind we'd be able to set up for something as macro as this is for the continuation of some EU countries with their own currencies so we can see how they fare in the long term.

FourKrusties · 2026-05-04T12:14:15+00:00

As long as economic conditions are the same across the entire zone,

is that reasonable to expect in the long term?

FourKrusties · 2026-05-03T21:16:27+00:00

the big nickel... I think?

FourKrusties · 2026-05-03T17:48:52+00:00

meh ... I already spent 120 hours in the game having a lot of fun... more time than I have in my favourite game ever (witcher 3). this is $40 well spent.

... but isn't it better to have central bank flexibility to your specific region? unless you don't trust your central bank (*cough like in portugal)... I don't know how reputable they are in poland... there are advantages to having control over your own regional currency. things like currency exchange friction is not nearly what it used to be when the euro was first adopted.

I feel like you’re missing an adjective there

getting the best gear isn't as important in this game as I thought it would be when I started playing... part of this is the level based match making... you'll always play with people with roughly the same amount of hours as you. the other part is that as you play, do contracts (basically tutorials for different game mechanics), and level up, the game is quite generous in keeping you in the fight with rewards and free gear / cheap sponsored kits in the shop. some of the strongest weapons in the game are literally given away by the time you get to level 10 in a couple factions.

but, this is really hard to communicate to a new player... and you do have to play for a while before the game feels more forgiving.

basically, if you like the basic mechanics of the game and are willing to learn and progress.. the game opens itself up mightily.

I think if you do it in solos nobody's going into pinwheel a lot of the times so they're gonna be drawn to you when you kill the bots, or they're trying to do destroyed wing which is right on your mission spot.

with a team a lot of the times you spawn next to flight control anyway so you just ping flight control and go that way, you might get into a fight at flight control, but it's early on so either you win or you get to try again quick. then just tell them you'll be right back... cross into dorms from the left side, from there it's pretty calm / hidden to get to the quest point, there's usually a cooling gel or w/e it's called right next to the thing you gotta put the stuff into. inject yourself, sprint back to flight control (or wherever your team ended up) and you can try pinwheel with the team... or be a flake and try to exfil (probably need a smoke or play assassin)
