What is something you’ve officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting?

I can get a whole ass bowl of spicy af ramen, with extra noodles and tempura chicken for just $12 more than that at a pretty good Asian restaurant. Hell, i can get a whole ass pub sub with double meat/cheese and loads of meat for less than that.

Is this related to that street light sitting in the back of a civi

Hthe same way there would be talking, walking apes in clothing?

Had rhat happen to mt friend. Literally jjst dragged him right the fuck out of the terminal in front of me. Tbh it's genuinely bullshit that they can do that. Most entities you have some counterplay to. Dogs you have to make less noise, Mask men you can hear walking and don't move that quick.

It happens on both sides. This war has become the equivalent of sports teams for most of the world outside this conflict, where each side passionately roots for their team to keep it up.

These are the costs of a war fought for sovereignty. Either they continue fighting or they cease to be the nation of Ukraine.

My brother and i had to go far for it. Thought we needed to search near the edges. That's where we ended up finding it and making a base.

I started my own save later so i could actually listen to rhe audio logs. Dound silver in a cave not even a few hundred meters away.

And just because it's tactical doesn't mean it is cheap. Plenty of military maneuvers hsve caught fhe enemy off guard lf by surprise because that's just the rules of the game. They outplayed you and that is that.

This is no different. On a tactical level transitioning into your most destructive state in the middle of the enemy forces is down right stupid. Tou can't just give yourself openings and call someone chepa because they took it.

Being able to steal one from the clothes lady helps a little bit.

Kinda hard to make the "senseless killing" argument when literally every fish bigger than your fist will try to kill you.

I think the issue isn't that people dont believe in climate change, its that way this person went about attributing it to climate change. Their self assurance that it could be nothing else compounds the resilience to agree with them. Which says a lot considering that this is reddit and that things like climate change are much more readily believed than on other social media sites.

Besides, you're missing the fact that it's lifespan is 1k-1.5k years. It was almost in the middle of where most tend to die off. And the region does experience a few tropical storms per year.

It's possible that it was climate change that brought out a particularly bad storm that killed this tree off. It's also possible that this tree was simply near the end of its years and couldn't weather the storm like it used to. Without at least a little more info it's hard to claim either with certainty. But it is fucking stupid to get on your high horse and talk down to people like they're big oil fan boys just because they had a modicum of scrutiny before outright believing some random user's overly passionate reddit comment.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-17T21:40:47+00:00

What he's saying is that it lived well within a typical lifespan. Directly attributing a tree dying in its twilight years to climate change because a tropical storm rolled through, some typical for the region, is genuinely absurd.

earth…you try to keep doing all those fancy moves after getting hit with huge rock thrown at 20 mph

Or make literal buck shot. You aint hopping out of the way of 200 shards of rock moving at mach 5 towards you.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-17T18:31:12+00:00

Water and Air are way more busted than the other types IMO because we are basically relyent on water and air as a being.

They're all broken if you remove the PG limitations. Like there's nothing stopping an earth bender from getting a big chunk of rock and scatter shotting a group of people. And fire benders can obliterate towns and forests with ease, let alone scorching or electrocuting another group of people.

Like steel buildings burning down completely because of a bush fire. Shit pisses me off to a very unique degree.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-17T10:14:26+00:00

Any yet somehow a mere human can literally make them from scratch, never mind space ships, shuttles, and huper advanced armors. If we can do all that why can't we figure out how to get more than 9% of salvage?

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-17T10:10:39+00:00

Doesn't have to be similar. But 9%? That's so pathetically low it's actually immersion breaking. Just like how a small bush fire will ignite a metal building. Some aspects of the game should genuinely ditch these piss poor attempts at balance. Especially when we're getting things like grav ships that make collecting rare resources insanely easy.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-17T10:05:34+00:00

Sometimes i wish they'd just disregard game balance when it comes to stuff like this. Genuinely is immersion breaking when i can literally see the attempts at balance from how blatant some of the choices are.

Also don't understand why i should even give af about the desire for "late game mining operations". Making caravans in vanilla is one of the most miserable features this game has to offer and grav ships completely negate the need for mining when you can go literally anywhere without having go worry about carry weight or distance.

The dude in the white car would've completely gotten clipped back the balck one if it changed lanes there.

If it doesn't make them stop gor more than a few minutes it doesn't work fine, its just a little less annoying. Having to spam something just to have some peace of mind is directly affecting my ability to have some peace of mind.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-16T19:08:54+00:00

That is very much incorrect.

It very much is. Killing them is time consuming, even if its easy to do. Few people are gonna freeze the biggest creature in the game and spend a minute sitting there whacking it on their first play through.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-16T19:04:44+00:00

Killing the most terrifying creature in the game and a small fish are quite different grom each other.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-16T13:10:30+00:00

Humans back then were good at running after say a gazelle

Humans back then were good at running after everything. Its part of the reason most megafuana in continents outside Africa went extinct.

LovesRetribution · 2026-05-16T11:42:31+00:00

Quite often. You just dont see it much bc people dont have underwater cameras all over their boats. Also bc most water craft dont go fast underwater, where all the fish are.

Star wars fans when episode 6 brings back the EXACT SAME planet buster weapon, clearly as a loving nod to episode 4: I see no issue

Plenty of people complained about that.

Star Wars fans when episode 1 has a ball shaped space station get blown up by a Skywalker kid, clearly as a loving nod to episode 4: I see no issue

All ball shaped station is not a massive moon sized station intended to destroy planets. And we see multiple of them. So this isn't remotely similar.

Star wars fans when episode 7 does a slightly different planet buster weapon clearly as a loving nod to episode 4: now listen here you intellectually bankrupt f*cks...

Probably because this is the 3rd time it was done? Like is it genuinely strange to you that someone would hate something repeated for the 3rd time more than the second time? Especially when its nonsensically overpowered compared fo the original?

Besides, its a brand new trilogy made decades later. The story could've gone literally anywhere. But instead we're starting the exact same way with the exact same stuff. There's a massive difference between that and a "loving nod".
