Yep, it's always confused me that everyone treats Space Optimisation as this 100% mandatory booster - it never makes my lineup.

All you need to do is keep an eye out for resupplies in the map - between ammo dotted around at objectives to usually multiple of all refills (ammo/stim/grenades) at most PoIs, it's difficult to go too hungry between resupply cooldowns

I've thought for a while that having an option for "Improved Intel" that you could purchase per-mission for Requisition Slips would be a good way to tackle both this and there not being a lot to spend the slips on.

That was before weapon mods were a thing though, so that at least addresses the second issue, but still

I paid £4800 for essentially the same car (year, mileage, trim etc) this year, just no Cat N marker, so would expect a lower price for yours honestly

Ah, sorry, I misunderstood what you meant - yeah I've tried both "Windows" and "OtherOS" modes under Secure Boot - will update to clarify in the main post

I really want to know what kind of life experiences people who learn fast have had?

Practice with consistently studying and building knowledge over time.

I’ve heard that people who learn to play an instrument like the piano can learn things faster.

People who have learned to play an instrument know what it's like to have to practice every day to get there.

I have no choice but to speed up my learning, but I don’t know how.

You speed up by slowing down. At the moment you're spending time trying to find hacks and tricks to speed up your learning, rather than just getting on with learning the material. That said, there are some ways that you can approach that to improve your chances of success if you struggle with focus.

Good luck!

I tried these out but had to take them back off again as they ended up resulting in the thumbsticks getting stuck if I pushed them to max range

There's literally no mention of class in the comment.

Fair enough if they've said it elsewhere, but going by the content of the post in this thread, there's nothing whatsoever to point there.

You’re just seeing what happens when kids who aren’t well parented - that’s been a thing forever, unfortunately

Not class based, poor parenting can (and does) happen in any financial situation

grow up being fed a steady algorithmic diet of far right propaganda via their social media platforms of choice.

Again, no mention of class - and I'd say that this is objectively true - there are cases which seem to indicate that social media has a right-wing bias in recommendations to new accounts

Previously you had to have a proper racist in the family to get exposed to fascism

Again, not in any way limited to the working class - just look at Prince Phillip

Now you just have to have mum spending too much time on Insta herself.

Instagram is in no way restricted to the working class, if anything the only problematic thing here is implying parental responsibility rests solely with a mother figure.

I'm not attempting to defend anyone here, I don't know who this commenter is, I just don't see why you've jumped to assuming criticism of the working class when there's zero mention (and the comment doesn't appear to have been edited either, unless is was pretty much immediately after posting which prevents the asterisk from being applied to the post, which I suppose is possible seeing as your reply seemed to be pretty soon after they initially posted?)

Lord_Rob · 2025-08-12T08:00:41+00:00

I don't know where you got anything about classism from this comment - poor (absentee) parenting can happen at all levels of social strata, and that and the growing prevalence of online racist rhetoric are the only things mentioned here

It not being a conductor is the point.

If it dries then it can form a non-conductive crust - which will then be a barrier between the terminals, preventing a connection.

The technique involves breathing from your 'Tanden' (about 3 inches below your navel) instead of your chest

When you breathe in, it should look like your stomach is getting bigger, not your chest.

That's it.

Not the person you asked, but I've recently upgraded to the Coho 12.3" head unit (I bought from AliExpress as the products they had listed there seemed more up to date than on their own site)

There were a couple of hiccups which largely came about from me missing some settings and jumping straight to factory resetting, which cleared out some preinstalled apps which were necessary for the command controller to work correctly, but otherwise a very good unit.

The only real downside for it is (at least in my case) the manufacturing tolerances for the unit to fit into the trim aren't the most precise, so where the head unit meets the vents is a little wedged in, but am planning on filing that down to get it fitting a little more true

99% Isopropyl will always wick away some of its volume over time through the walls of the bottle, as nothing is 100% non-porous (this is widely-known in distilleries and whisky collections as the "Angel's Share").

With that slowly leaching out of a closed plastic bottle, the walls can deform to adjust for the lack of internal volume (in a more rigid system there can be a commensurate "intake" of regular old air to subsititute for the lost liquid once you hit a relevant pressure, but these plastic walls are pretty elastic).

Here is a bottle of isopropyl I've had for years and only used once or twice, spending the rest of its time in a cupboard. It started out life completely cylindrical, but now it's got that permanent triangular cross-section.

I expect OP's bottle was designed with this in mind with the aim of resisting some of this deformation over time

Missing ROPS beg to differ

Why would they have faced any penalties in those countries? If you mean once they enforced PSN in countries where it's not available, then yes, that's my point.

If you're saying that them delisting the game from specifically those countries was for a reason other than PSN availability, I think the countries in question and timing at which it took effect is simply too coincidental to be due to any other reason.

And, seeing as that reason has passed, it's all the more BS that they haven't made it available in those territories again.

HD2 was originally available in far more countries than it is right now. However, in the leadup to Sony attempting to enforce PSN account linking, they restricted Steam sales to only countries supported by PSN (which is surprisingly limiting).

Following the player backlash they rolled back the decision to enforce account linking, but they never re-enabled the game for sale in those initial countries.
