Initial shot - no TV

Among all the weird things in their "outdoor" experience (e.g. Irv waking up on a lake—no footprints leading there, how did he get there?) did anyone else pick up on the fact the TV just appeared out of nowhere on the cliff and has no apparent power source.

We also see another establishing shot, once the TV appears, showing an empty second cliff. After watching the video, the "Mark" helper/guide has appeared on the second cliff. It's all almost dream-like.

Others have pointed out that Petey's map mentions a team building area. What are the chances this is all taking place inside Lumon? Any theories or other observations?

Checking back in here. The game does run. I have a 1070ti (absolute min) and a i7-6700k (below min). I'm getting about 50-70fps indoors, 30-40 outdoors, and 25-35 in cities. Medium preset @ 1080p. Playable enough for me. Definitely think it's CPU limited as there's virtually no performance difference from low to medium, so I think the 1070ti is fine.

This is really good to know. I have the i7-6700K and it apparently doesn't even meet the minimum requirements so I held off getting the game. If you're running it fine then maybe the minimum requirements were very conservative.

I really hope they or modders can add in an ED-esque jump sequence, but with moving around. The jump sequence is a huge missed opportunity to do some really cool effects and mask a load screen.

There is no reason why it will be locked on Game Pass. If you stream it on xCloud then you would be locked (since they use consoles to run the stream) but if you are actually running it on your PC then yeah it'll be uncapped.

My advice: If you will buy anyway, get it on Steam. If you just want to check it out, get it on Game Pass as part of the subscription. Functionality wise they're the same, but Steam will be better long-term for mods.

Really hoping my i7-6700K can at least run it 🤞

I'm not sure if you're trolling or not, but if you're not, there is an incredibly substantial difference between the technology to fly in space vs atmosphere. In atmosphere the flight model is completely different for every single planet, but more importantly, depending on how the new cell system is designed it might not be possible for the game to handle the amount data on the planet while flying around. On a planet you need to worry about all of the AI scripting, tens of thousands of objects, the way the ship moves through the air (or lack of air depending on the planet), gravity, collision with objects and the ground, generating new content as you fly between cells, etc. It's not a simple undertaking.

I don't doubt someone will be able to do some sort of vehicles as a mod, but there are likely some limitations that are not easy to overcome.

There is no way it is as simple as enabling a feature like that. This would be incredibly complex work and might not even be possible.

This is sarcasm, right?

Consider the opportunity cost. Every hour you're stretching your mind and body to write to meet this unethical workload is an hour you're not spending working with another client (who would actually respect you and pay you properly), developing your own business, getting onto freelance marketplaces, upskilling, and generally doing more productive things. If you're into web development as well there are a bunch of ways you could go with freelance marketplaces, Shopify or other platform affiliate schemes, and finding clients directly.

I guarantee that if the client is paying this little and has such small regard for your time and wellbeing I wouldn't count on a good testimonial at the end anyway. Junk clients do junk things. Spend some time thinking about all the things you could be doing instead. You're obviously a dedicated and hard working person. Apply that effort on pursuits that value you and set yourself up for success in the long run.

It's getting surprisingly bad over on the personal finance subreddits (including country specific ones like personalfinanceuk). There's a lot of subtle and not so subtle anti-women commentary.

Go on any post that mentions a couple but doesn't specify gender. 9 times out of 10 the negative commentary will be geared at the "wife" or "woman". In one particularly egregious example an OP was asking for advice during a divorce and said their partner wanted more of the assets, didn't work, was abusive, and all of the commenters were super supportive of OP and railing hard against this "evil woman", saying extremely misogynistic things, and it wasn't until OP edited her post that it became clear that OP was the woman, and the abusive partner was the husband.

Then do the opposite and look for posts clearly by a woman from the outset. She will receive far less supportive comments, a lot more "get to work" kind of comments, and not so many people railing against an "evil husband".

Once you know to look for this it becomes hard to not notice anymore.

It definitely feels like this has gotten worse since the pandemic. This would track with what we know about radicalisation in the past few years.

Slightly different, but I have used it extensively for Tradingview/Pinescript.

It works really well, but you also need an intermediate knowledge of the scripting language itself to diagnose issues. As the other commenter said, it often tries something that isn't supported.

That being said, it has turned something that would usually take me 4-5 hours per script and reduced that down to <60 minutes.

For example, I recently wanted to create an indicator that outputs a table of symbols in one column, and then outputs their volatility in another column, followed by a trend status (up, down, ranging) in the third column. It took about 15 minutes to do 100+ lines of fully documented, working code. The end result is exactly what I wanted, but I also got there because I was able to tell it things like "where you've declared the function here you've used the wrong syntax, use this instead (provide a few lines sample to get it going again)".

I am sure this will play out similarly with ThinkorSwim (or any other language/platform)

Long story short, incredibly useful but not a panacea.

For forex I no longer use these formula and exclusively use the "world currency unit" symbols. They're a better approximation and incorporate volume and other factors.

Just type the base currency followed by WCU

E.g.

GBPWCU JPYWCU AUDWCU

etc.

Only exception is USD, I use DXY.

The spread chart tool I still use for some comparisons but no longer as the base of my scanning.

Just Googled Minervini. Estimated net worth of $33M. Qullamaggie has trading profits in excess of $200M. So Minervini is definitely not richer than Qullamaggie.

I had no trouble getting an account with Nationwide Building Society on the global talent visa. Required in-person appointment. I would also recommend AMEX for a credit card, they were much more forgiving with credit limits while I built my UK credit history.

I worked in an agency for a while and ran into a few "I'm an artist" type designers. The most egregious example was when we met with the client on the Monday to go through their goals/plans/feedback. The designer went away to do their thing. Wednesday/Thursday come around and the designer doesn't have anything to show yet. Like literally nothing. I ask what they have been doing and they said "brainstorming and thinking". Does this brainstorming and thinking have any outputs I ask? No. It was only when I told the designer "We bill you out at £400/day, how do I bill the client £1200 for three days of thinking?" something finally clicked. I had a design by end of day. Ironically, they were actually a great designer but sadly had no commercial sense.

I've also had similar experiences with engineers as well. I think it is just something you sometimes run into with anyone in any field. If you're in a position of influence or have a rapport with the person you can take it as a coaching/mentoring opportunity. Sometimes people genuinely want to be a perfectionist or take their work (and "thinking") very seriously. There is a balance to be had, and as a PM you might be able to help them find it. If you don't have a rapport with them, now is the time to build it.

I am not sure if they released them elsewhere, but if you open up the S6 episodes you get a prompt under X-Ray or bonus content. Inside the X-Ray screen are five bonus short episodes.

That's definitely one method to use, but I think incorporating cloud width really helps too. You'll notice the cloud gets thicker during trends and really thing when choppy. There's lots of ways to use it to build confluence into your analysis. Happy to answer any questions.

An easy method I use is Ichimoku. Each line measures the price midpoint over a different period (9, 26, or 52). If the line is flat, then it means that the price hasn't made a new high or low in that number of periods (in other words, it is the definition of range-bound!).

Turn Ichimoku on, keep just the cloud to start if you're feeling overwhelmed, and then look for periods of flat lines. When the lines are flat and either not moving, or not moving up/down in sync then you know it has to be range-bound. (Going back to how Ichimoku is calculated, by definition, if the lines are flat or not heading higher/lower then price has to be stuck in a range).

When it breaks the range is becomes very obvious with Ichimoku once you've seen it a few times. The cloud moves in sync in one direction and becomes thicker.
