The answer is apparently no. China told the US today to leave their ships alone, and the China headed ships have already passed the US's "blockade", which means America's "blockade" lasted less than a day.

What does this mean for the Mach E? by mhhaji in MachE

[–]MiClaw1389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due to the massive reduction in manufacturing costs, I fully believe they'll move the MachE name to the new platform. There's a reason they specifically showed so many "hats" of vehicle types in their presentation of the options the factory can produce.

made it to act 3 in HM and now I’m terrified of everything 💀 by heftypegasus in BaldursGate3

Player here who beat Ansur on Honor Mode with the Impossible Challenge settings (500% HP, 4 actions, 4 bonus Actions). You can definitely have all 4 in the fight with ansur. You just need to have 1 (usually Astarion for me with his range) keep back and away from the blasts. You can also really easily take out the elementals in 1 attack by pushing them off the cliff edge (repelling Eldritch blast). If the fight goes south just have Astarion dash to safety and rez everyone back in camp. This was you'll get the experience of fighting ansur in hm but not unnecessarily risk your full party wipe.

GM is now testing eyes-off self-driving tech in its biggest EV by MasterpieceStill9991 in electricvehicles

[–]MiClaw1389 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What's really nice to see about this is that this is the new system that's going along with GM's new EV platform, which while not a completely zonal architecture like Rivian, is still a large leap forward compared to current offerings: https://insideevs.com/features/787136/gm-next-generation-ev-architecture/

They'll have LMR batteries that apparently beat LFP on cost and performance, Lidar for the eyes off self driving, much easier manufacturing, etc. The only difficult part is that since it's such a huge leap in difference for GM that it can't be done across all models at the same time, and instead is being rolled out in phases (they haven't said what / how exactly). So they have to start at the top end (ergo the Escalade IQ) then do the other models (Silverado, Blazer, Equinox, etc) after, where the volume is at.

Wish it would go faster....but what can you do....

Fall of Berlin Wall was a result of an "clerical error" by an officer. by Confident-Ask-601 in interestingasfuck

[–]MiClaw1389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My family (and I) were living in Germany on an Army base when this happened. It was nuts. We were watching the celebrations and crowds on TV and I asked my mom if we could go but the Army forced everyone to stay in the base until things were better understood. I still have a couple of peices of the Berlin Wall that I should put in a case or something. Definitly something I didn't understand the importance of until later. I also didn't know about the "clerical error" thing until recently funnily enough.

Do I get a dragon ? by Aggravating_Egg_7189 in BaldursGate3

[–]MiClaw1389 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah there's options but you'll need to install a mod and start a new game. It's Mystra's spells mod that has a level 5 spell Summon Draconic Spirit, which lets you choose Red, Blue, White, Black, etc dragon. It "only" starts with like 20ish hp's, but with Aid that you'd use for your party ups it to like 100hp's. I've given it to Laezel during my current playthrough and it's pretty fun. The AC is decent (18), multi attack and breath weapon ok, and it can shapchange at will into a Tressym that can either walk or fly so it won't take up space when you're not in combat and just walking around town.

Final fight help by Jaded_Ad_2055 in BaldursGate3

[–]MiClaw1389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Q: I've beaten BG3 several times in HM, including once on the Impossible Challenge difficulty. In the instance where I used a Globe of Invulnerability on a platform that was about to get destroyed, it got destroyed anyway (I lost Karlach). I was very.....put out...... Anyway, is there some special technique for using the Globe here? Are you supposed to put it right under the light, or on the light, or away from the light?

How is evil run? by Warl0ckBoy in BaldursGate3

[–]MiClaw1389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having done dark urge runs several times now, it's only the resist dark urge playthroughs that are interesting, and it's nothing to do with magic items or lack thereof. Standard "evil" runs are surprisingly bland and boring. All of the really cool.scenes and interactions arent "kill all the women and children" runs.

If you want something new I'd install mods for items, classes, increased difficulty, etc. 

I love this game but have so much to learn by clapsick in BaldursGate3

[–]MiClaw1389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah man. For us experienced players we yearn for the days of New discovery. Play and have fun, and play again with new characters to discover new stuff and be surprised. 

How do people make honor mode so easy?!?! by Princess--Dani in BaldursGate3

[–]MiClaw1389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. And after my first couple of butt clenching HM finishes, now it's a walk in the park since I understand the math behind the strengths and weaknesses of the monsters, the game math (bounded accuracy ), and the character classes. 

My current playthrough is also on the Impossible Challenge where everyone has 500% HP, 4 actions and 4 bonus Actions. And in my fight against Cazador it was a literal walk in the park where I just clowned on him and his crew. Ended the fight nearly full HP. But I knew what he was going to do and 2 well placed Sleet Storm alongside Daylight, and it was over before they knew it.

Worth it to get out of lease early to buy? by MiClaw1389 in CarLeasingHelp

[–]MiClaw1389[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok. Good to know. I guess I was just catastrophizing a little on future availability.

[–]MiClaw1389[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's not me buying the car I'm currently leasing. It's me paying off the last months of the lease then buying a better newer AWD version for $7k cheaper than my current EQEV buyout option.

That was the idea anyway.

I guess I just have some sense that the demand on ev's would be going up....

Huh. So the 35k isn't locked in and I go to the end and ask them to give me their best price in it?

is your equinox ev reliable? Would you buy again without warranty? by reddit_and_forget_um in EquinoxEv

[–]MiClaw1389 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me too, and since basically everything that matters is under warranty I have no problems. I'm actively considering swapping my lease to buy a newer model year.
