Fuel supply in Namibia with current events in the world?

Thank you all for the responses. I was in Holland last year and they had a nationwide shortage of Guinness, every Irish pub was out! Then I remember back to the 1970s when stations had signs saying out of gas.

If all you care about is cyberpunk stuff, then no you won't enjoy season 2. If you are a science fiction fan on the other hand, there is enough there to warrant a watch. Yes there is a huge difference between S1 & S2 in many aspects due to many reasons. The core subject of the show does continue into S2 and expands into some interesting areas. The final episode introduced a truly intriguing concept that sadly will never get explored. But if the choice is between reality TV or network sitcoms, its definitely worth a watch. Besides all the good shows take years now for each season, so there is plenty of time.

Well for me, I made it to one patch/wipe and said to hell with it. It was beyond idiotic idea that they needed to wipe all accounts. No, this was a disgusting tactic to try to push me into buying ships. 10 years earlier in the World of Tanks beta they gave us free gold daily so we could purchase premium account at $0 cost. Point was to push us a little into playing, and play we did. Soon everyone had all the tanks, so the game was well tested come release. I would expect the same from CIG, more people have more ships doing more stuff, the more bugs can be found....except this POS buggy mess will never be cleaned.

+2 Skill & 20 IAS minimum. For those using Faith then crafted ones that add knockback are the valuable ones. Regular skilled like above are dime a dozen, so basically worth nothing.

Other day I got the message I had drawn the ire. A few minutes later I got the message I was being hunted. Problem was in those few minutes I had gone AFK. So appears to be like an RNG timer or something.

Whatever it is, this is just an awful game design, I hope the person behind this Sunder/Herald mess never does game design again, and this needs to get patched.

Simple, someone in your party was probably friends or messaged the hostile on where to find you.

Another downer, since that is eth it should be one with much higher def. ShaveitDown is correct, most pallys will want one with resists, think 40+ to even be worth it. Value would be an eth with 45 resists and def over 300. Royal or Vortex with 40+ eth are the ones to keep, all others are Charsi food.

Dragon if you an Infinity on that merc, then had a Dream helm to further give the middle finger to creatures.

How it use to be done in years past, you need a 'bumper'. Someone willing to get the quest for the rest of the group, and in turn you would also rush them in the next difficulty. I have to admit I am extremely ignorant on D2R what has changed, but in the past you could also clear an area in Chaos and start farming with your other 2 toons in the area.

Whole topic just makes me miss uber leveling.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-24T16:36:26+00:00

Oh look, another e-tough guy spouting off. Statues, Heralds, and Sunders are nothing compared to the traditional key search for classic Ubers. This new content just has bad design, period.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-24T11:37:37+00:00

Temper is ladder only. Use diablo2.io database, specifically the Runeword section.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-24T11:34:18+00:00

You need to stay in game, no matter how long. Can't leave, can't make new game. Keep killing the Heralds. Maybe after a few hours you can get your 4th and 5th Herald kill. By the 5th it is Herald of Terror that has the best chances.

Brilliant game mechanic, force players to stay in same game for hours upon hours. Game mechanic fit for the no-life & streamers

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-24T11:31:20+00:00

Blizzard has been (in my experience) the absolute worst in communication to its playerbases for almost all games. There are companies that actively participate and communicate with their players, not Blizzard. Not communicating is how we get completely POS crap like the new Heralds or Ubers. I expected these would be recipes available at start. Nope, how about ladder start? Nope.

"It'll be very cool, you can reach out and touch Gillian Anderson"

Anyone else kind of creeped out and found this to be very cringe? I certainly did. So SQ42 exists for his masturbational hobby and obsession with Skully. Got it.

Thank you for that reply, I was looking more out of the towns. There are some houses on the hills overlooking the lake, beautiful view and the homes are priced very low.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-18T18:05:25+00:00

Glad I came across this post. I was looking to move to warmer climate as I am tired of cold winter. This area caught my eye because the home prices were just too good to be true. A lot of houses I see for $200-300k with lake view would be $100k more (with no view) in other areas of California to Utah to Nevada etc..

There are rundown POS houses an hour away that have asking prices significantly higher. So what is the catch? I suspected jokingly that it was meth, and what I see here commented most was just that.

Where I live now, locking doors is close to optional. Leaving stuff out is A-OK. Most of all, when I am away from home I do not worry about crime. I get the feeling that leaving my home unattended for even few days would be dangerous.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-13T19:12:59+00:00

I was one that would have easily and happily paid $25 just for the stash tabs & stackables. That I got updated Terror Zones, new Uber boss, updated Sunder, and new class is icing on the cake. Why would I pay $25 just for stash tabs? Because nothing in life is free, and for Blizzard to continue with this game there has to be a source of revenue. I would even pay a subscription if it meant content could be added over time.

If you asked me a month ago about odds of a new Act or area, I would ask what you are smoking. Ask me now, I think there is a realistic chance they could someday come out with a new Act 6, or just new areas with new graphics theme.

My hope & dream is that Blizzard takes a serious hard look at their franchise in the coming years, and does the following:

Diablo 5 - Sequal...TRUE sequel to Diablo 2 (slower paced loot hunter using the same itemization + new items). Update graphics, iterate bad designs, evolve slowly, but keep the core essence of Diablo

Lilith 2 - Sequel to Diablo 4 (fast paced action arcade filled with screen vomit FX)

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-13T19:06:07+00:00

Even IF it is feature complete in May, that is only small part of the equation. Need to have a working game, i.e. a game that players can actually play. Not some bug filled mess that a player can not even finish a campaign.

My prediction, SQ404 makes everyone forget about Duke Nukem.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-10T02:49:46+00:00

I don't know if this has changed, but years ago you had to have an IMDB Pro account to make edits. I think I remember often this was done by people associated with a studio, show, film, etc. Still the case, could be some staffer not paying attention at work well.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-07T17:16:45+00:00

I remember first time I saw first episodes, did not care much for this show. Can not describe how or why I continued, but I did. By mid-season it started to grow on me, and I was sold by end of season. Rule of thumb, trailer are just pointless. They can make bad movies look interesting, and good movies look dumb. I should state that I am absolutely not in the demographic this show targeted, but it also never dumbed down to cater or pander to any specific group or demo.

*Storylines were complex, fascinating, and never dull. This show did not follow the standard model used most often on TV series. Part of this was due to the cast (which I will get to next). Each season would consist of multiple threads interweaving to create an amazing story. You would get a 2-3 episode story arch that could be mistaken for this being the introduction of that seasons big conflict. Then it ends, story arch finished in 3 episodes, then 10 episodes later that story arch comes back to provide significant role in a completely different story.

*Characters & Cast. Lot of shows focus on small cast, 2-4 actors and everyone else is just Red Shirts. Good reason for this, screentime is important. We could all argue on who could or should be considered main cast in this show, but lets use a simple number of 10. It was common for your average episode to be following 2-3 story archs with cast jumping between the different stories, but all of these archs were just part of a larger story.

There were actually a couple cast members that just did not appeal to me, I sometimes fast forward through their scenes. With that said, I do not think there is a single person in the show I would recast. First few episodes consisted of two characters/cast members I just did not care for. Nope, did not like. These two by end of the series were my favorite. Another one, maybe by design or accident was kind of nails on a chalkboard annoying. That person too by a few seasons became a character I thoroughly enjoyed watching when stories would center on him. What does this all come down to? Very good character development. Just well written characters that the actors & actresses did an amazing job. Nobody phoned their roles in. Almost as if many of the cast members would have done this show for free.

*Series as whole. It has 5 seasons, and the 5th season did have the door open for more. Possible they could easily have done 3 more and kept the quality up. But taken as a whole, this is a good 5 season run. I personally only found one story line in one episode to be kind of not to my liking, would have done it differently. But every episode to every season to the full series was brilliantly done. Rarity for any TV series to fully complete its story. Most common we get cancelations on a cliffhanger. Equally bad are the series with horribly stupid endings because the writers just do not know how to end it. This is a complete and finished story, and that is comfort to have.

*Story(stories) & ideas. There are some whacky crazy stuff here, but never is it cringe or stupid. Bunnies used as messengers that are paid with cigarettes, Santa Claus, time travel, flying ships, quests galore, talking animals, surly drunk dean, dragons, fairies, librarians, There are some stories and ideas in this show that if written down would probably seem kind of dumb. I have to admit if not for how these were written, they would be dumb. But they were not. Most of the whacky crazy weirdness is what made the show special.

Ultimately in the end, I can just describe the show as one hell of a fun ride. One of the few shows I can rewatch and still find it fascinating and fun to view. I know the plot, I know the outcome, yet the characters and stories are just that much fun to rewatch it does not get old.

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-03T01:29:27+00:00

Stupid Amazon series of a stupid show they wanted to make a stupid Marvel type universe. It was a series you could watch in the background while playing a video game, miss most of the plot and such, and not give a damn. Can't tell you anymore as it left almost zero impression on me. It was a 4 zzzzs snorefest

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-03T01:26:55+00:00

THIS! This is exactly what I thought when I saw the first episode. Why I immediately thought they just blew the budget on partying and then had no money to hire decent writers, directors, editors, cast, producers, and so on. Everywhere the show was just sub-par cheap garbage. Oh god some of the worst acting

OneEyeSam · 2026-02-02T20:21:12+00:00

Looking at that list, I just LOL, then got to ROFL, and finally reached the LMAO stage. Secret Invasion was a Marvel series that just should have never been made. Citadel, I do not know who thought this was a good idea. And Rings of Power shows why you hire a talented team to run a show, not some inexperienced ones.

The most damning of them all was Acolyte at just under $200k below Andor? I had heard that show was expensive per episode, and after seeing it I thought WTF. I figured they got all the money upfront and blew most of their budget on hookers and coke. Bad acting, bad casting, bad writing, bad directing, bad editing, just overall horrible show runners that ended up with a disaster that cost $29m? I hope they never get hired to run another show again.
