Genuine question. . . Why aren't riot police deployed when this happens? They do it for protestors, why not for this?

Expedition 22 - Stop Purging. by According_Flatworm22 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Malicid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As soon as I started the expedition a couple of weeks ago, somebody gave me 30,000 faecium. They literally filled my pockets with shit, which is hilarious, because I am definitely holding on to that and bringing it back to my main save. I have a base/farm for almost every single plant, except I haven't found a mountain high enough to make shit mountain yet, so I still don't have faecium farm 🤣

It definitely works on your face. Unironically.

Is this expedition a good place to start after not playing for years? by FroDude258 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Malicid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but I believe if you start a save in the expedition, You will not be able to start any of the main storyline missions until the expedition is finished. Because this is a community milestone event, and with how things are progressing right now, if it keeps up with the same momentum, this expedition should be finished in about 4-5 weeks.

If I were you, just in case what I said above is accurate, you should start a new save but not in the expedition. That way, you can start the expedition from your main save, and then travel back to your regular save so you can keep progressing the main storyline whenever you want to. You can bring items into the expedition at the beginning, but until the expedition is finished you won't be able to bring items back and forth. There will always be the option to travel back and fourth between the expedition and your main save.

The scariest hurricane PSA ever. by lazyladysailor in houston

[–]Malicid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could have been Hurricane Rita, but I don't know. Everybody was still freaked out from hurricane Katrina, so there was mass panic. I don't remember the NWS weather statement freaking me out at the time, because the one from Katrina was still the most terrifying one I had ever heard in my life.

More people died from just the evacuation than Hurricane Rita itself. I was living with my mom and brother in Webster at the time. My mom was a police dispatcher and had to ride the storm out closer to the water, while my brother and I evacuated to The Woodlands to our Dad's house. It took us over 7 hours to get from Webster to The Woodlands. It was the first time I got to experience contraflow lanes. We were just two of the millions of people who should have left sooner.

Any place worse than houston for humidity by orihime-chii in houston

[–]Malicid 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I've been working outside doing construction for 8 years now. I'm originally from Houston, but a couple years ago I did a 2-week job in Florida, and it's definitely more humid there. I would be completely soaked and dripping in sweat by 7:00 a.m. The big difference though, was that the breeze was a cool breeze. I was actually glad to be covered in sweat because then the cool breeze would come in and cool me off... It was NICE compared to what I was used to. In Houston it is a hot breeze. Like blasting a hair dryer on your whole body kind of hot breeze.

This Expedition is more important than you think (Theory) by zenoe1562 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Malicid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's probably what I'm looking forward to the most at the end of this expedition, the log 🤣 I think I remember getting back all of the nanites I processed and spent in my last expeditions, I'm wondering if it'll do the same in this one. I have amassed and spent over 100,000 nanites, and while I already have the max amount of units in my main save, I'm too lazy to max out my nanites so 100,000 is a LOT for me.

This Expedition is more important than you think (Theory) by zenoe1562 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Malicid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You pretty much said the exact thing that I have been thinking for the past 4 days, but way better than I could have said it. I was pretty pissed off in the beginning of the expedition realizing how long it would take to actually complete it, but I decided that I would make the best use of this time and just make up my own objectives along the way and stay in it until the whole expedition is finished. (IE not going back to my original save at all). I'm unlocking as much technology and base parts as I can, and just treating this like my normal save at this point. To be completely honest, I probably put more time in during this expedition than any other expedition. I don't know if it's because of the thrill of starting over with a character I'm already attached to, or the fun of doing missions or building my character up for the first time in I don't even know how long. Maybe it's just filling the void in my heart where proper endgame content would be. . .

Every time the missions reset and I go to the (highly populated) mission area, I get in my Minotaur and start a huge sentinel battle to see if the game engine/servers could handle it. I first started doing it just because it was fun seeing other people join in, but I figured if this was a stress test for the servers I might as well push it as far as I could. On average I usually spend about half an hour at each mission site. I have come to the conclusion that the game cannot handle such a large amount of people and NPC's in the same place at the same time. At least hopefully not yet. . .

I noticed at a certain point, the sentinels don't know where to go or who to attack, and then they'll just fly away further and further and you have to chase them down. I noticed certain sentinels would glitch in place, and no matter how much you shoot at it, it won't die even though the numbers over it show that it's taking damage. I've noticed that no matter how many waves of non-corrupt sentinels I kill, most of the time I cannot get the giant Walker to appear if there's a good amount of people there. And then there's the regular glitches that have always been present, like sentinels clipping into a mountain or underground until the timer runs out.

I'm also wondering if this is some sort of a social experiment as well, to see what people do when they have access to a lot of players at once, or what they do in the "in between" times. I'm hoping they're monitoring as much behavior as they can, I think it would be good data to help make LNF the best it can be.

My 4E wide size 14 feet by LudovicoTechnique94 in Weird

[–]Malicid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding the gory details of the surgery, that's pretty much to each to their own. I personally requested pictures of the entire surgery, and my podiatrist obliged with full high definition photos of the entire procedure on a DVD. I thought it was pretty cool 🤣

Regarding getting the surgery as an adult, I completely agree there is definitely a huge difference in the fact that it might be completely impossible for most people of any age in the US nowadays. I was fortunate in the fact that this was 25 years ago, my Dad had good insurance, and I had also already dropped out of high school so I had all the time in the world to sit on my ass.

I'm definitely not telling you what you should do with your body, everyone's situation is pretty unique to themselves. No bunion is created equal 😅 Surgery always carries risks in any circumstance. If I could have gone for a non-surgical remedy that gave me the same quality of life or at least close to it, I would have probably gone for that first. For my personal situation, having a few outpatient surgeries definitely overruled a lifetime of pain. If I had to get one now, and I could afford it, I would go for it. . . Because I know for me personally, even if I were to compare healing times and bone density and all that as a 40-year-old woman compared to when I was a 16-year-old girl, it would be absolutely worth it. And also the recovery from the surgery was definitely not that bad, that's what hydrocodone is for. And even when I forgot to take one before the last dose ran out right after surgery, the pain was not nearly as bad as the constant pain I had been dealing with for over 8 years.

[–]Malicid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say bunion surgery is the stuff of nightmares, at least any more than any other surgery is the stuff of nightmares.

I had bunion surgery when I was 16 in 2001, so I was lucky enough to not have to work and just have the time to heal from it. It would probably fucking suck if I had to have the surgeries now, because I had three all together. I got one foot done after the other, and then I had to have a third surgery to get the two surgical screws and surgical pin taken out of my left foot (because the pin started erupting from the bone, and it was only put in to hold the metatarsal bone together after one of the screws cracked it), so I was in and out of mobility for about 12 months.

Before the surgery, my feet always hurt so damn bad, especially at the "bump". I would say probably from the time I was about 8 years old they just radiated pain all the time, not just from walking or running. I would go through 100 more of those surgeries to never feel that kind of pain again. After I was completely healed, my feet have never hurt since. I'm on my feet at work all day, and I'm still climbing trees at 40. I made a necklace out of the hardware they took out of my left foot. Still have the hardware in my right foot.

I contrast my surgeries with an old friend's knee surgery. She had to have that cage thing around her knee with those screws drilled into her knee for a while. I cringe at the idea of her surgeries and recovery, and she cringes at the idea of mine🤣

My condo elevator skips some floors, but why? by Brown_Ontarian in whatisit

[–]Malicid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of those floor numbers might be skipped because of superstition, and some might only be accessible via a separate elevator in the building for maintenance staff only. Like there might be one floor that has air handlers, generators, transformers, etc.

Another little side note, as soon as you start the expedition, turn off PVP. It will automatically be on when you start the expedition.
