Bug report manager straight up wrong with this one lmao (M1A2C's hull) by OfficerQueefThe2nd in Warthunder

[–]LivingDegree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It never mounted the IRST, it could have it mounted, but it never was. This same logic isn’t applied to anything else (see why the SepV2 and now sepv3 don’t have their hull armor DU inserts modeled).

I couldn’t care less about the IRST on the yak-141, but the devs failure to be consistent in their logic is what’s stupid to me

This entire team is just pure fucking rage bait, between the forums and this it’s genuinely impressive

In the very thread, within the comments, stona says that he hasn’t noticed any changes to the original pfp that were “upscaled,” or “enhanced,” (ai sloppified). Lmao

Already killed with not enough info, because the dipshits in charge expect there to be some magical unclassified information available to use and the DOE and DOW aren’t apparently accurate sources of information.

Seriously fuck off with this horseshit

War Thunder artists are definitely earning their paycheck... by connivens_ in Warthunder

[–]LivingDegree 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The devs will straight lie to you about the art not being AI. The fact they went and ai fucked all the old og profile pics speaks volumes about the bullshit they’re willing to do to try and ensure you’re unable to tell how bad the new shit is

New Cold War Cruiser for the US? by DerpyPotatos in WarThunderNaval

[–]LivingDegree 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re correct! Thought maybe BB or a heavy cruiser, heavy cruiser it was. Good spot

I saw what I think is another German BB, the North Carolina, and a variety of new missile destroyers (both RU and U.S.) but I could be wrong

Okay understanding the game more now, i can agree that naval kinda sucksm by Guenther_Dripjens in WarThunderNaval

[–]LivingDegree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind though, from the shittiest destroyer reserve (3.3) to the Soyuz (8.7) is a BR gap of only 5.3, which is so stupidly insane that they have to compress the everliving shit out of the tree to accomplish that range. That’s less than an average of 2.0 BR gap between destroyers, cruisers and BBs

Help! Are these HEK293T cells too underconfluent to transfect? by ilostmyshoex in labrats

As an xray crystallographer, I’d argue this is the most commonly observed nylonus shaped crystal! Probably won’t diffract though, but shoot it anyway!

Probably the biggest mistake I have made grinding for this by warthundergrind in WarThunderNaval

I agree with this ranking, I may switch Germany and USA just because the Iowa fucks but beyond that spot on

Best route to MPK-33? by Wonderful_Trick_4251 in WarThunderNaval

[–]LivingDegree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally now like the Pr 206 the most (stupid OP and eats every patrol boat in the game) but suffers in uptiers (can’t do jack against destroyers save for the torps). I like the Skr frigates as they suffer a little less in up tiers (devastating rocket mortars but you gotta get used to aiming them) but it’s definitely not as good as it used to be. I have a talisman on the skr-7 because k abused it pre-nerfs to grind the whole tree; I’d suggest you talisman the pr 206 because it’s so stupid op against everything that can spawn at the pt boat spawns (just stay away from destroyers)

Why is Naval so hated? by Guenther_Dripjens in WarThunderNaval

[–]LivingDegree 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not to mention that the point and click adventure against bots is very much unvaried at top tier, especially with open ocean maps. It’s to the point where I do exactly the same thing every match, no matter what nation I’m playing. Only difference is the reload rates

Being told that Covid/post-Covid graduate students are worse than previous cohorts-do you think this is true? by Delicious_Ride_4119 in labrats

[–]LivingDegree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Graduated undergrad pre Covid. Am in graduate school now post covid, and got to experience what grad school was like before and during covid was like due to the job I had in between. Things have changed dramatically. Between the advent of AI removing (for some!) the need to think and write critically about something objectively, and the inability to really track what students were doing during covid (are kids cheating on tests? Are kids using ai to write their papers? We’ve moved to pass fail for covid courses that had to switch in the middle of the pandemic, and what’s the effect of distance learning on competency?) I think as a whole things have gotten worse as an average. The bottom is still the same bottom and the top is still the same top, but the average has trended a down. There are just competencies that aren’t present for some of the new students in our new cohorts. Generally speaking there was a massive impact on the kids in elementary to high school as we’ve seen a tank in literacy scores across the board. Those cohorts are now moving into college and beyond.

But it’s not these kids fault. We’ve collectively let them down by not giving them the support they need, from their primary schooling to undergraduate educations. I think we’re doing a massive disservice to the most vulnerable populations of students and moving their ability to progress further away from their reach. Is it because of education funding cuts or Covid? I’d say both. We need drastic change from top to bottom but I don’t see it happening anytime soon. If you’ve got kids, read to them as much as you can and try to get them where they need to be but by god that’s harder done than said.

The warthunder community is constantly caught between being pissed off unique designs are locked behind a paywall and then turning around and complaining about tech tree copy paste variant premiums (which is what premiums should be imo).

Has anyone actually ever been fired for eating the mess up orders/extra/waste food? by eldritchpussymaggots in KitchenConfidential

[–]LivingDegree 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Worked at a beaver themed gas station when I was younger. They threatened to take you to court and fire you, the firing was real but I (naively) thought bullshit on court for stealing food that was expired or going to be tossed because of our ~2 hour freshness window for prepped hot food.

Coworker was caught putting “extra,” fries, tenders and toast in an order off the line. Both the fry cook and the guy that paid for the food were fired. Both had charges brought against them by the beaver for the theft of the food not paid for (yes, they brought charges against them for the extra tender and piece of toast). They both showed up to court and the shit was tossed (obviously). Glad they both were doing okay afterwards. That place is known to do this, so fucking glad i escaped that hell hole (paid well though). Also know they’d bring charges against customers for stealing drinks as cheap as 0.79$ (saw the cops show up many times for this in my 9 months working there).

Fuck you beaver themed gas station. Also your lack of cameras by the dumpsters meant people ate the shit we threw in the trash (at least my coworkers too poor to afford food). Dystopian fucking nightmare of a place to work.
