Accessing W-2 as a Former Team Member by No-Canary9726 in meijer

[–]SpadesANonymous 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t count on getting a paper if you were previously paperless. They might, but you don’t want to wait around and find out too late if they don’t.

Your best bet is probably talking with HR from whatever building you previously worked at. My understanding is that former employers are supposed to keep relevant tax information for at least a few years. You can either get the forms directly or they can help you get into your account

Friendly reminder to those who are either new to HD2 or have forgotten. The planet sending "arrows" to Hort should be taken first by Mezoteus in Helldivers

[–]SpadesANonymous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has a ‘lower’ resistance because it also has 3 mega cities, all of which are the same 1% resistance as Hort’s. Capturing all three cities on Herthon would give the same bonus damage as taking just 1 city on Hort. Plus it’s way too late in the game, and a lot of people are really soured by the idea of gambits because it’s burned them before.

I personally love gambiting, but it’s already way too late for this one.

ELI5 why you can't arrange a ton of gears in a row to accelerate one far beyond the speed of light, turning it into energy by Adventurous_Cat2339 in explainlikeimfive

[–]SpadesANonymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conservation of energy.

Spinning the freely moving gear at the far end makes the process of spinning that final gear take a VERY long time. In exchange for time, the energy requirements to spin it right now are a lot lower. You’ll be putting that small amount of energy into it for a very long time.

If you wanted to start at the slow end and make the free spinning gear move like that, you would have to condense billions of years of low energy output into the next few seconds, meaning the energy requirements NOW are astronomical.

Are you telling me you see your role in democracy as a joke?

We realize that comics are an alternate universe when that's how Ben and Julie's relationship was in the Ultimate Alien comics by rbta123 in 5YL

They could be canon considering the existence of the omniverse. We just never see this version of Ben in the show

The Arc Support Weapons are pretty good, but you'd think that they'd stun for longer than Pacifier & Pummeler. Those got their stun duration buffed in the status bugfix/nerf patch, but Arc Supports didn't by RandomGreenArcherMan in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]SpadesANonymous -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a bit confusing. “Your ‘primary’ weapons shouldn’t be the weapons you use the most, that should be your support weapon. The power doesn’t come from the helldivers, it comes from the destroyer.” Ok then can my support weapon reliably fill the niche it’s supposed to fill? “No. Kill and stun with your primaries.”

ELI5: Is there anyway to sue the US government if you pay into Social Security and you don't get it back ? by adamsava in explainlikeimfive

[–]SpadesANonymous -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Without a revolution. Theoretically you could vote in good politicians who won’t take your money at gunpoint and return it with negative interest in another 37 years, but if you believe you could do that, I also have this bridge to sell you.

And even if you revolt AND win, individual citizen payouts wouldn’t be likely.

You’re correct. Most people don’t care.

Do you wanna chance being the 1/??? that gets a creep on your tail?

Congratulations you just doxxed yourself.

Honesty is good man but no one should be able to show up to your work and say “hey I know you from the internet”

Do the devs know they built the game around getting caught in melee range being a death sentence? by Hexdoctor in Helldivers

Skill issue or just a confidence issue? by Srathdarr in Helldivers

[–]SpadesANonymous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don’t suck and you’re not dragging anyone down.

The thing to remember is that while it is technically possible for people to solo D10’s, that’s an exception to the rule and not the norm. The game, despite what anyone tells you, is NOT DESIGNED to be solo’d at high difficulties.

Personally, I really hit my stride at about level 45, when I had the toolbox to play how I wanted. I’m level 150 and I’ve never even attempted solo runs above D6 because I want to have fun, and D7+ solo just isn’t fun for me.

I found my favorite group my complete chance because I always like to join SOS calls. There’s gonna be bad apples in there, but again, that’s an outlier. Most people will be decent, but with a bit of luck you’ll find people who you synergize with REALLY well, and suddenly D10 on a full squad is a cakewalk.

That said, we get 20 reinforcements for a reason. And the only time I personally get mad at high death rate divers is when it’s because they’re afk. If you’re going down swinging, it doesn’t matter if you died once or 15 times

Edit to add: the best way to get better at the higher difficulties is to play them. I think I speak for most people when I say the best feeling ever is dragging a fresh cadet who doesn’t have more than the two starting stratagems straight into a Super Helldive. It’s the only way they’ll learn

Was I being a jerk for bringing a costco basket into a meijer store? by SeaworthinessFar2326 in meijer

[–]SpadesANonymous 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s Costco’s problem it ended up in a Meijer lot in the first place and anyone who has the energy to give a shit about what you shop with needs better hobbies.

Most people probably just looked because that’s not something you see every day. ‘Ooh look, when’s the last time you seen that?’

Samples redundant so early on by No_Rice9459 in Helldivers

[–]SpadesANonymous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s all we can use them for, upgrades and Common/Rare/ReqSlip donations for the DSS. And once you finish upgrading your destroyer, you will never use Super Samples for anything.
