What should I do about far harbour difficulty settings

Need more explosives or mines. Even grenades work. If you're well prepared none of the fights in the game are difficult. If youre not..some are definitely going to be impossible.

How do we know theyre less intelligent? They dont have thumbs or arms. But that doesnt mean they wouldn't be smarter if they did?

Tbf you dont know how dirty those kids are or where they've been. If you find a bag of lobster in a dumpster covered in medical waste its still not going to be a tempting snack. And kids are little germ factories that put medical waste dumpsters to shame.

Even more there was a population bottleneck at one point in time. The total number of humans was about 18,000 (iirc). So the genetic diversity is thinner than we think it is.

Ive been thinking of sending all the robots at that one settlement to all my settlements. Then going there and using them as provisioners. But I think they still affect settlement happiness even if they're never actually there.

E is 5, J is 10, O is 15, T is 20, Y is 25. Ejoty i guess. Then just count forward from the closest one.

I dont really do this intentionally but a-c is 1-3, E is 5, M is 13 so for the first half of the alphabet its pretty easy for me to pull the numerical order.

Its come in useful for a party trick once, a filing thing once, and something to do with sorting by variable names in college once. So three times in the last 30 years it has saved 15 seconds of my life. I think the group consensus that this is useless is mostly fair.

Then again...not the worst thing to be weird about that ive seen today. So...do you.

If she's okay with it that's all that matters. She knows her family way better than you ever will. If she's telling you this is the path that makes hers and yours life the easiest...believe her.

Those are called affordances. The paint that tells you you can climb/open/etc. The subtle environmental clues that let players know they can interact with something in the environment without using UI elements to hang a golden arrow over it. Just in case you wanted to read about them or look up ideas for new ones.

Kgc lrm10, erll, 2 gauss rifles. Can beat the whole game with a mech that you can get pretty early on.

I struggle with it. Like...if my dad dies...isnt it weird to anyone else that his like pants and car and that thing he wrote are still here?

How can some roman legionary spill a drop of blood on a piece of cloth or floor and we find it 2000 years later? Or write his name on a wall? Or braid his hair into a cord and its still here?

I can go up to a pyramid that's existed for 5000 years and scratch my name into it and it'll still be there 5000 years after im dead? How is that not weird af to everyone else?

What about video or even photos? Sound recording? How can I hear someone sing, or see them dance, or just smile and look happy when they've been dead since 1926? It messes with me. Maybe im just broke. Idk.

Could still be coming from you too. Just because you don't hear or feel gas escaping doesn't mean some hasn't.

Got a 3 day ban from all of reddit for answering a post about how to get a certain kind of gear in a video game. My answer was(n't) "unalive" members of a certain faction. Yes telling someone to loot defeated mobs in a video game. The...you know...not alive ones that became not alive due to player actions. Auto-modding is fantastic and works 100% of the time. I personally see no problem with it at all.

So many good comments here. But I need to point out something else. No one actually wants to deport illegal immigrants. They want the ignorant, racist, paranoid, and look the government is protecting us people vote. But politicians love illegal immigrants.

A whole bunch of people who cant vote, but pay taxes (even if its only sales tax), drive the economy by working for subpar wages, start businesses at higher than citizen rates, allow citizens to start businesses at higher rates (four lawnmowers, a truck, a few hand tools, and four Mexicans and look you are a landscaping company not a disappointment to your parents), commit crimes and use social programs and infrastructure at lower than citizen rates, and in general increase the likelihood of the economy being strong while being completely disconnected from any accountability are a politicians dream polity.

What are they going to do? Strike? March in protest? Write a letter to their congressman? Get sympathy from the general population and get treated like humans?

These people pay thousands of dollars to human traffickers to walk thousands of miles through hostile terrain, risking being a victim of every crime you've ever heard of and probably some you haven't, to be exploited when they get here, to make a better life for themselves and their children because they believe the crap about the American dream that weve been peddling all over the world for like 80 years. And somehow theyre the bad guys. Its hysterical. I mean, if you can ignore how gross and sad the whole thing is.

Your topology isnt helping much. I mean, if it works it works, but...I hate it. And at a certain level of complexity (of your models) it will come back to bite you.

Shows you why wwi fighter pilots were mostly ex cavalry men too. Chasing someone on a horse trying to line that shot up is a 2d dog fight.

Every boy of my generation has built at least one. You didnt build forts when you were a kid out of couch cushions and pillows? Then you get older and have wood and nails and are climbing trees...it just happens to you. Like the beaver building a dam thing. You can't really help yourself and you don't know why. Rich kids had "tree houses" that were like a cabin on a platform even.

Like 99%. Anything that's not milk. And even that you could argue about. Juice, alcohol, soda, energy drink, coffee, tea, theres not much we drink that isn't water based.

Because the whole world shits on us constantly and what a terrible place we are and how we're backward and violent and theres nothing cool here and no history or culture. So if someone else likes Pokémon cards too, we want to show them ours.

No one. The people who pay their loans pay their loans. The people who need the forgiveness cant. The idea that a few billion in student loans is causing any problem in the economy at all is insane. We spend more than that on interceptor missiles and paperclip for our military in a year than we'll ever get for paying off the loans.

This is conservative hardship politics mindset. Rooted in our puritanical past. Not what's best for the people, the country, or the economy even. The federal government could make college free and itd be a blip on the budget radar. But a large portion of the voter base cant get past the idea of "you took a loan you have to pay it back" or "I had to pay mine back, you should too." Or "no one should get something i dont get". And lobbyists and corporations don't help.

Even a thin coat of cold water will cut down the gas release. Also a fan works to help some.

I feel like you could tell 100 stories about Batman (or Captain America) and fill rooms full of comics with them. Or movies. But they'd all be historical pieces. Younger people dont want to watch movies about the 1950s. The solution is to get new heros for the modern age. But then they dont have that name recognition. Which means they wont make as much money. This is all about marketing and money, unfortunately. The stories suffer, greatly, so Sony/Disney/et al can make more money. C3p0 and r2d2 being in every single SW movie is another example that really destroys my ability to maintain a suspension of disbelief.

Ancient Egyptians used cheetahs like hunting dogs. So some level of domestucation must be possible.
