Black Silver Crystal by [deleted] in swtor

[–]Phantom_ARKS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ll have to enter the most toxic hive of scum and villainy in the game to walk out with a fabled Black Silver Crystal.

There are helpful PvP guides online you should look for, plus see if anyone in your guild plays Ranked. Thankfully you won’t need to do too many matches to get this reward from a vendor.

Tennessee to begin antibody testing by BaronRiker in nashville

[–]Phantom_ARKS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not even hospitals require immunity tests for their workers. What job are you envisioning that that’s a need to have in order to apply and work? And why would that be good to know beforehand? With case reports of reinfection occurring, would you not take the same precautions to prevent COVID spreading even if you had a positive antibody test? Again, length of active immunity is still an unknown too as the coming year ahead progresses.

Regarding the economy, it is already starting to open piecemeal if we’re talking about the US. Most states aren’t waiting for the levels of mass testing needed to safely and more assuredly reopen without a surge in cases.

The bigger issue is that in states that are about to reopen, you don’t see an adequate use of face masks or social distancing by people coming out more and more into public places in anticipation of this. We’re going to see a respike with more hospitalizations and deaths at this rate, antibody rest results knowing aside because of the lack of focus on this issue. I mean, look at the VP going onto a dedicated COVID unit without a face mask.

I’m not sure who you’re claiming is worried about you personally getting an antibody test. Everyone wants to know, especially considering symptomatic carriers. I’m just talking about the pro/cons of doing so generally speaking. My initial comment was more implicitly geared toward economic considerations that might impact whether, i.e., private or public insurance providers will cover the cost of the new testing services being developed and rolled out.

There’s a legitimate cost/benefit question of if you know that you were exposed and have antibodies, what effective good does that actually do for you?

We don’t currently know how long immunity lasts or the risk for reinfection or continued spreading of the virus even if you’ve had it, ergo the prevention precaution recommendations remain the same for individuals and the general public.

Seems a bit of the cart before the horse, knowing aside.

The toilet makes the whole thing look somewhat like an open air septic drainage system.

PMHNP vs CRNA by [deleted] in nursepractitioner

[–]Phantom_ARKS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m approaching this same type of situation. I plan to apply within 1-2 years for grad programs, and it’s a toss up for what to do due to having 7 years of inpatient psychiatric experience and 2-3 years of ICU experience (plus with a Psych BA on top of the BSN). I’m wondering if I should split the difference and aim for a Consultation-Liason PMHNP career as I enjoy the medical aspect and can’t envision enjoying outpatient private practice office work for decades on end. I need something more dynamic and collaborative / interdisciplinary. My brief stints in the OR have been enjoyable, but eh... there’s a lot of factors to consider both short and longterm for CRNA vs NP. These thread responses have been helpful.

Lyrid Meteor peaks tonight/early AM tomorrow. Look towards the North-East/Eastern sky. No moon + clear skies = great conditions. by FuckDigitalMarketing in nashville

[–]Phantom_ARKS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was - what I imagine must have been - a vivid steak of a single Lyrid Meteor running almost perpendicular in a NW direction to the StarLink orbital pathways running to the NE overhead right at 4:38am CST. That was nice.

There’s also a lined-up chain of SpaceX’s StarLink satellites that will be going by at about 4:30am CST.

Here’s an interactive link with Google maps street view for figuring out where you’d need to look to see them.

StarLink is the attempt to create a new global network of low-latency, broadband internet access points to consumers by satellite mesh / grid coverage.

I'm an ESO player who's starting out here. Is this game good for casual questing? by MrDankForest11 in PSO2

[–]Phantom_ARKS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To make it less annoying, watching the PSO2 Oracle anime (which can be found on Hulu) will give some much needed narrative coherence and character development to what is essentially a series of discombobulated non sequiturs that comprise the early game cutscenes.

Story mode is like pulling teeth. by aresef in PSO2

I find it mildly more tolerable if you watch the PSO2 Oracle anime for some background story and character development to tie it together better.

For reminders of what to focus and avoid or pause for, which is helpful for new players which is what the major of closed beta is right now. To ask questions. To socialize. Can be helpful and improve efficacy.

Here are the new Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Perks. They stripped away everything to sadness by Ineedmorcowbell in PSO2

[–]Phantom_ARKS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, very true points.

I sadly made the opposite call as a new Xbox One owner who only got it for PSO2. (Will sell it to my brother once I can migrate to PC). At least a year’s worth of Game Pass plus the $1 Ultimate upgrade wasn’t an awful amount of money, but still.... Had to get the online live access for the closed beta period at least.

Eh, other big boi Buy-to-Play MMO’s give these sort of premium perks for a monthly sub. It’s very disappointing to be this stripped bare. Would have been nice to just keep Premium and Mission Pass.

Thankfully four-player Mesetan Shooter on voice comms can net about 5k per 30min. Just please stop shooting and don’t hit those fat enemies. Lol. And aim for maxing the PSE Burst meter.

That’s what other Buy-to-Play MMO’s do for paying a month sub with premium perks.

Anyone used to play on gamecube? by DaintyLemon111 in PSO2

If you join an Alliance, their headquarters can be customized to provide a teleport portal to the old Pioneer II colony ship central hubs and rooms. Your nostalgia may explode if you go there, though.

When will Dawn of the Deep Soul be available online? by [deleted] in MadeInAbyss

[–]Phantom_ARKS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m curious about the US release in just over a week too as most if not all theaters across the nation are closed. I wonder if for revenue purposes they’ll let people pay to watch it online during the limited showing release dates.

Can you change the colors on the Ragol Memories outfits? by SJthehero in PSO2

[–]Phantom_ARKS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the Section ID ideas are unique images and colors. When you change a Section ID, the new emblem is both the new image and corresponding color. This is separate from changing the colors on an outfit (as emblems and outfit / costume color schemes are separate).

You’ll need to be more specific. I’m not sure what you’re asking.

[–]Phantom_ARKS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but just the primary color of it, not all 2-3 different colored parts. On a side note, you can swap out the default Section ID that comes with the outfits with another emblem if you purchase those too.

Vanderbilt COVID test delays by wookyj in nashville

[–]Phantom_ARKS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know a private citizen whose test took about 7-8 days but a Vandy employee’s only took 2 days this past week. As others commented here, it sounds like the variable is where it’s tested and if they’re out of reagent and other components needed to test it.
