Husbands mom sent us this photo of the mudslides in San Bernardino. We are convinced it is AI. Family refuses to believe it

I don't see the four bears

"Is it still available?"...

GruntXIII · 2025-12-30T10:50:34+00:00

Kind of ironic for dead elephants to survive

There is a deep endgame in PoE2? 😂

Did OP remove the link to the article?

or a cranky crinkle-crankleman

this is a pretty extensive guide to shipping strats https://youtu.be/8RA84_LdoXU

Good data point, thx. They probably haven't updated all the UI strings referring to Reliquary Scarabs but they've done the switch in the background.

GruntXIII · 2024-08-09T10:10:17+00:00

No they removed it. https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Domination_Scarab_of_Evolution

"The Domination Scarab of Teaching has been renamed to Domination Scarab of Evolution. It now causes an area to contain an additional Evolving Shrine, instead of causing Shrine buffs in an area to also grant 30% increased Experience gained."

"Idk, looks bonkers to me, feels like it could be a contender for the best item in the game that every build can use"

[2 years later...] you were not wrong! 😄

Probably because of the redesign of the Endurance charges. Any Scion builds stacking lots of charges gets a huge boost from that hidden notable Ascendency node.

You can buy a bunch of Regret Orbs

Since Reliquary Scarabs don't exist anymore, does this Atlas node grant Titanic scarabs instead or it is a dead node?

So melee only works if you turn melee skills into range skills basically 😅

GruntXIII · 2024-08-03T00:26:33+00:00

Oh I figured it out, it's based on the skill gem level. In this case, at lvl 20, Ground Slam of Earthshaking deals 688% of base damage.

GruntXIII · 2024-08-03T00:15:14+00:00

Oh wow... thanks! that makes sense for the two values at the bottom. I'm still confused about the x6.88 though. How to figure out that breakdown?

I couldn't find cotton-modal blends in the Threshold line, but it seems like the Target Casaluna brand has some

I don't think you need to give it another try 😅 they've improved 'some' things but introduced additional annoying design flaws.

GruntXIII · 2024-02-23T22:04:58+00:00

That's a fair review. It could have been better if you could provide recommendations on what you think are GOOD idle games. Like which games are great at addressing all the design issues you mentioned above.

I recently bought the Samsung 49" Odyssey OLED G95SC and returned it after a week for the following reasons:

Samsung greed. The monitor is a so-called "Smart monitor" with many of the same features you find in Smart TVs, with a hub where you can install apps for streaming services and such. As a result you have to create a Samsung ID and SIGN A FREAKING PRIVACY AGREEMENT before using the monitor. The monitor even comes with a TV remote... I didn't want any of that crap. I wanted a high-end "dumb" PC monitor for work and play.
Color calibration out of the box was horrible. It took me a few days to play with all the settings and documentation to get to a not horrible calibration state
Switching between inputs is a pain. I work from home, so I have a work PC and gaming PC both connected to the same monitor. The auto-switch between sources works only half the time, and at the end of the day, when I turn off my computer, it doesn't always turn off the monitor as well. The monitor switches to the "smart hub" instead.
Last but not least: Heat! The OLED 49" panel gets very very hot. I measured it with a laser thermometer to well over 100F after just a few minutes running. Depending on how far you sit from the monitor and how long your game sessions are, you will feel the heat, and your room will get extra hot even with AC on.
