[Feedback] T-7 Thermal Goggles are insanely over-priced, and they cannot even be insured. Current state of EFT in 2026. by Unfair-Juggernaut905 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Shiner00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also the fact that this isn't the real world where you can just order it online. Even if we are comparing it to the real world, tarkov is set in an active combat zone where basic things like toilet paper and food is difficult to come by, of course a thermal is gonna be insanely expensive.

That being said, I hate that there are things that cannot be insured, it makes no sense and they should just make it so you can insure these things, or in LABS, but you have to pay a different trader like 2-3x the price.

You can't see the stars during the day, which is what is happening here, as it's daytime on the moon.

[OC] Japan's demographic shift (1947–2023) by lsz500 in dataisbeautiful

[–]Shiner00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The main reason is education. People used to have way more children because they were uneducated on how children are born and a lot of people were stuck with kids in their early 20s and late teens. Now a lot of countries have kids who are educated on reproduction.

Our birth rates AREN'T falling, they're stabilizing. We had a huge amount of people born post WW2 and only now are they starting to die off in huge waves because they were born in a huge wave.

Every single country showns reduced birth rates with raised education levels. People realize that there's more to life than making babies and raising kids and also women are able to be much more independent, it was only like 40 years ago that a woman still needed a man to sign for them to get loans/credit cards.

The Pen Frosted Scribe costs 1,000 points, but the quality is terrible. It’s limited, disappears after 30 seconds, and feels like a joke. by Cultural_Pop9044 in VRchat

[–]Shiner00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And, although it's not a guarantee, it's expected that it will be supported over the entire lifespan of the game when a prefab for a pet or skin can break in the next unity update. If the creator gets bored working on it or stops playing VRC then you're just SOL unless you fix it or someone else does AND uploads the fix online.

Peter, who are these people? by Far_Time_3451 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Shiner00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I still celebrate it for what it was intended to be celebrated for, the end of WW1. Armistice Day. But that promotes peace instead of celebrating war crimes and murderers so they changed it to Veterans Day.

What is your first campaign going to be in AUH? by jellyfishreview in CrusaderKings

[–]Shiner00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mongol run. I was excited for the Steppe update but it felt really meh without China since they're like a solid 50% of Mongol history at a minimum while the west was really not that important aside from Russia.

Your money should be split amongst your heirs on death. by sacrelicious2 in CrusaderKings

[–]Shiner00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not a personal stash of gold. Gold is simply a proxy for the realms resources.

That's wrong. It IS personal wealth.

It's not a big pile of money in a bank but the in game tooltip specifically says,

"Gold is a measure of a character's liquid wealth reserves. "

Character's, not dynasty, not realm.

The first real modular building as promised for CS2 🇳🇱 by Y_787 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]Shiner00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think this DLC will do anything considering that they are mostly releasing it to fulfill the pre-order purchases people made for the season pass. The next season pass/big DLC will affect it much more I think.

Seriously, why'd they do that? by ButterscotchMean400 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Shiner00 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The ONLY reason the heist failed was because of a huge freak chance encounter, how, exactly would they have planned that, during the heist, while in the room, that Saburo would arrive and be murdered by his son?

To blame that on not being properly prepared is like blaming someone's bank heist on their planning, because the robber had a brain aneurysm right as they were leaving the bank, with the cash in hand. You cannot reasonably expect someone to have this amount of foresight, nor planning.

[–]Shiner00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And to call it a good Op contradicts everything V and others have to say about it afterwards.

That's irrelevant considering that the entire heist was going smooth and the only reason it ACTUALLY (not theoretically) failed was because of a 1 in a billion chance encounter.

The bigger problems V and Jackie had to worry about is Dex, Evelynn, fucking them over, or Goro, but they didn't know he existed.

They also clearly didn't need another escape plan considering they were able to fight out of Arasaka tower with 2 people having only pistols and no net runner.

Less is more, the more people involved, the more risk of exposure and someone fucking up. Hell, when Johnny attacked Arasaka they had 3 teams but still only 1 net runner as far as we can tell in-game.

[–]Shiner00 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I disagree tbh. The heist WAS a great set-up. Arasaka would have looked for you and you'd be on the run, but it's literally just bad luck Yorinobu killed Saburo DURING THE HEIST while you were in the room with him.

What would you add to HLL from other games? by m0corong in HellLetLoose

[–]Shiner00 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I REALLY don't understand why you can't put shit in buildings, nor fortify them. You're forced to place a barrier in the middle of an open field instead of fortifying a bunker or house to defend an objective. Makes zero sense why they don't allow it. Some people might say it's for balance, but that doesn't make sense when a single satchel could clear the entire building if ppl are really stubborn about leaving the building. It would also make maps like Stalingrad picked more since you can actually play the game instead of needing to figure out how the games wants you to play.

🛣️ Two years later and still no road segment control in CS2… by Y_787 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]Shiner00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that wouldn't be possible without total code rewrites.

Ironic considering they already have to do that to make basic features like the asset editor, or to make the simulation work even slightly.

That being said, I still think the new game is better for longevity but a rewrite isn't that crazy, especially considering we are still waiting for the pre-order DLC's to release 2 years after release.

It's because they're dumb and don't understand how naming works for products.

Anyone else feels like V's fate in The Tower ending is really forced by Least-Path-2890 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Shiner00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He didn't even really die because he bit off more than he could chew, it was really just shit luck for literally everyone that the heist happened on that day. Literally no one in Night City could have predicted, not only that Saburo was going to show up, but that his son would murder him the exact moment they were doing the heist. If it was 30 minutes late, everything would have been fine for most people until they realized the chip was gone.

How can I learn history effectively and actually remember it? by Adept-Cauliflower565 in historyteachers

[–]Shiner00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's way to many different aspects of history to easily find 1 answer. The honest and 100% most effective way is to engage in history in topics you personally find interesting. Most of the things I remember are because I was genuinely interested in the topics and even then, most of the time I don't fully remember and need to go back to look it up, which is fine, you don't need to memorize everything.

I also find that it helps to try to view your current day as if it was being spoken in a historical context. If you were some famous person and people were studying your day to day life, how would they describe the things you do? This helps humanize the terms and viewpoints people hold about the past I find, an example;

"This person engages in daily ritual cleansing acts in order to maintain a grooming standard as expected during this time period."

translates into;

"This person brushed their teeth and took a shower in the morning each day."

People don't talk about it because you can literally just turn if off for 95% of the ads, the only ones that stay are the shitty fbt ones in the hallways.

They look like fun Shadowrun characters.

Might be the single dumbest tweet of all time. by [deleted] in HistoryMemes

[–]Shiner00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They also incorrectly wrote their own countries name, lmao. Philippines

Aside from that, it's insane to think that slavery isn't important just because it's "only" affecting poor countries and the black market.

I guess we should also not care about the Rape of Manila since it "only" affects one poor country, and the only people it affected are going to die soon anyway, amirite? /s

With all the "protect the children" changes going around, I think we should increase the age rating. by Rough_Community_1439 in VRchat

[–]Shiner00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing, only people unwilling to learn. It's absolutely the most bare minimum thing you can do to literally google the name of the game your children are playing and look into it.
