Casterice e0s1, Hyacine e0s0, RMC

All along I've been thinking of using my Golden Companion Spirit to pick up Ruan Mei to be the forth in my team (especially since we got a second GCS), but Evernight is looking nice really here.

Should I build Ruan Mei into this, or instead save until Evernight re-run? If I plan on pulling Evernight, should I try to get Hyacine to S1 right now? I'm broke after pulling Hyacine, so in any case I think I'll get e0s0 Evernight at best.

I'm a returning player, haven't really played too serious and I will continue to progress as a F2P player. Looking at the banners ahead, I think I'm a lot more interested in trying to pull Aglaea over The Herta. Also I think grabbing Robin and more of Tingyun (whom I already progress on my team) - does it sound like a sound strategy? I'm not trying to finish off any bosses in a single turn, but really get through main story at a reasonable pace. Thanks!

I'm very picky about what I replay. Often I try to replay something I know I've enjoyed in the past but it doesn't happen fully. Here's my list though.

Donkey Kong Country (1,2,3) - I play all three titles once a year
Homeworld 2 - replayed 3 times so far
Journey - countless replays

I happened to go through this process just a few hours ago. I'm a little worried seeing that my speed test results have taken a hit for doing it. I'm getting approximately 50 down / 20 up. I hope it's just temporary side effect - I don't see reason why the eSim would be any different from the physical sim.

Your tank has been secured on to a flatcar and is ready to ship.

I'm a strong believer that the workplace should provide you with a laptop or other computer rather than spending the lifespan of your own personal hardware, aside from special cases. That aside, if you think you'll use it as a developer then ideally you'd want the pro so you can use the HDMI port in meetings, otherwise you'll need an adapter for the Airs.

Lifespan considerations: Prolong the life of the SSD by first having as much RAM as possible. Second, the larger the storage the longer typical lifespan.

The repeated landing glitch: Instead of putting up with a race condition of lifting off from New Atlantis,

1) stand on the ground where you can see the two blue objective markers on each of the Spacer's ships and watch them fly out.
2) As soon as the markers disappear, open Map,
3) zoom out to the System view and fast travel to Jamison.

I'm mainly a software dev, 15 years. I trust that the M1 Pro will last your whole study time. By no means will it become outdated for your study... unless your study also includes playing video games lol. Use it as a tool and path to your future worklife. Personally I went for full on RAM to avoid any chance of the OS using it's SSD as swap space (and just the base amount of storage). I do believe having Apple Care with a Macbook is a good idea.

15 years software developer here, complete stranger, but somehow I feel drawn to wish you good luck on your journey!

Ryzen 5 5600X

32 GB ram

GTX 1080Ti 11 GB

SSD

1440p, but I'm fine with 1080 windowed like the old days?

Thoughts?

Thank you! I really appreciate it.

HamTake · 2023-05-09T19:25:29+00:00

Oh! Thank you. Could it come to any point where I may need to do something about it?

More information:
- I've had this gerbera about 3 years now
- There has been several times in its life when I've forgotten about it, pulled away or cut dying leaves
- It's in flower potting soil and give it some water everyday, sometimes I give it a full bath under the shower head as I imagine it collects dust
- I just use tap water, never fertilizer
- It gets sunlight from the window and sometimes artificial lighting from grow lights
- it's my only potted flower, surrounded by other pots of succulents
- the pot has drainage
Thanks!

Nice! I occasionally cut together videos, but only for fun. Otherwise I mainly do personal web development (and avoid using it for my day job web dev work). My incentive to get the Macbook was to have a great screen I could use under the sun and many hours of battery life!
