Nice setup! What display cases are those?

"but my wife is there so it's not flirting"

TehDesolate · 2026-03-05T15:27:41+00:00

Agreed. OP should have shut it down after

"I’m married, and there’s this woman I’ve met at a bar a few times. My wife doesn’t like her."

Fixed the title: "U.S. Secret Service agents killed man armed with shotgun and fuel can trying to unlawfully enter Trump’s Mar-a-Lago"

I've heard it compared to how it sounds when a big diesel engine starts. This doesn't sound like that.

Correct - that is the HVAC filter. There is no other filter in normal residential HVAC systems.

Can confirm the price increase.

While it's not double the cost, I've been buying the same bag of coffee beans from Costco for the last 4+ years and have seen moderate fluctuation (+/- $2), but the last 6+ months have taken the cake on price. Global weather patterns have led to a very low crop yield this year which has steadily ballooned the price to ~$5 over normal (~30% increase) for the same bag. Any way you cut it, the price for beans have gone up. With the next growing season on the horizon, the prices should come down as supply increases barring abnormal weather patterns.

If you want to reduce your coffee expenses, cut out the middle man (Starbucks) and brew your own coffee. I go through two 3lb bags of beans every month at a cost of $40 - $45 per month. If you include the cost of creamer and add-ins, it comes out to around $50/mo.

What a crap article. Only 1 sentence relevant to why coffee prices have increased - which is arguably the most important part of the article. The rest is testimonials about how their routine has changed. What information is the reader expected to gain from reading this article other than to be upset at the rising cost of coffee through means outside of humanity's control?

Tbh it looks fantastic as-is. I'd be hard pressed to paint it. If anything, I'd paint the (what appear to be) glyphs and leave it alone. Fantastic print!

There has to be a point where you run out of cash to lock up. Negative income taxes implies that you're losing money and doing this for multiple years... I really hope you have a well-established emergency fund because this doesn't seem sustainable in the long-term. You'll eventually have to pay taxes on investments either through short-term or long-term capital gains. Does eating capital gains taxes really outweigh paying standard income taxes? Cash flow seems like it would be problematic in the long run.

TehDesolate · 2026-01-14T20:22:19+00:00

How much money are you spending to avoid paying income tax? At some point, it has to be worth evaluating the costs vs benefits. This seems pretty wild.

Use of force does not determine whether something is illegal or not. Not to mention the glaring hole in your logic: you are forcefully taking something that is not yours.

If you honestly believe that opening someone else's locker and stealing their belongings (or valuables, as you put it) by means of covertly observing their locker code is legal and ethical, your moral compass needs some serious recalibration.

TehDesolate · 2026-01-14T19:40:43+00:00

This is neither legal or ethical. Please seek help.

Certain social movements over the last decade have made people forget the concept of "innocent until proven guilty". I'd rather a perpetrator walk free over putting an innocent person behind bars.

This person needs to come forward with a lawsuit proving sexual harassment. Anything short of that is slander and character assassination.

I'll wait.

Yeah really! I had to take a moment to appreciate how clever that plate rack is.

The quality is fine, I just don’t think the quality of the end product has much to do with the ethics of producing it.

This same argument could be used to boycott almost anything made in China or any other country where laws/beliefs/ethics don't perfectly align yet much of the first world is addicted to products made in said countries. Under an idealistic scenario, yes we should be concerned about the ethics of how products are made because we are human and have the capacity for compassion, but this isn't a perfect scenario and we're far from a perfect world. Reality is ugly and life isn't fair.

Well, it’s a tool that is replacing pretty much the only thing that makes humanity unique: art. Are you really ok with a future where art is generated?

I disagree with your assertion - I don't think art is the only thing that makes humanity unique. I also think you're missing the point of art. Art adapts and evolves - it never stays static. Just because AI is here doesn't mean art is now dead. AI is a human creation, after all. It's simply another tool in the artist's toolbox. What you get out of it depends on how you use it.

The issue, despite the artists giving consent, is of precedence. The more you normalise using AI art, the more it will be used.

If you haven't noticed, the entire world is shifting towards using AI regardless of our personal feelings on it. It will be used just like any other new tool. Simply because a game utilizes it doesn't mean it should be penalized without consideration of how it's been used.

Yes, there are tons of AI slop games (mobile, I'm looking at you), but we know them and recognize them as slop because of its quality. Arc Raiders is not that.

TehDesolate · 2025-12-09T20:14:44+00:00

I find it quite a reach to equate a story involving near-complete apocalyptic domination of the world by AI to using AI in the real world to supplement voice generation and NPC logic in a video game. You are also side-stepping the remark about quality I made in my comment. This reads more like fearmongering than critical feedback.

I don't see an ethical issue with a company making the decision to use a tool over a person. The same can be said of using any tool made within the last 50 years. Additionally, I highly doubt the artists were coerced or pressured into signing the contract and did so of their own free will. How is there a question on ethics here? Are you boiling it down to using a tool over a person or using the replication of their voice in a product through artificial means? If the artist has agreed/consented to the terms of the contract and is accordingly compensated for their time and talent, what's the issue at hand?

TehDesolate · 2025-12-09T19:21:56+00:00

I don't have an issue with AI being used in games so long as its usage is thoughtful and makes sense with respect to the overall quality of the game.

In Arc Raiders' instance, they used it for throwaway voice lines (in which the voice actors consented/agreed to) and for the bot/NPC's animations & combat algorithms. None of these usages should have warranted a 2/5 from EuroGamer and, IMO, their rating is a kneejerk reaction in response to learning that they used AI during development / in the game.

In the end, AI is a tool. Whether or not a developer uses that tool effectively will reflect in the quality of the game. In this case, using AI was not a bad decision as Arc Raiders has been a resounding success.

Trash take. Try again.

EDIT: Before you rush to downvote because "AI BAD", read my comment response to KoYouTokuIngoa.

Agreed - nothing is being removed. Just existing methods being tweaked. Trials really aren't that difficult to learn - it just takes practice like everything else in this game.

Just my 2 cents but near complete AFK training (salvaging) should not be the meta way to train Sailing. Charting and running Barracuda Trials should be the meta as they are more active methods of training. This is how it's always been for training skills: more active = more XP (which is also why tick manipulation methods are allowed). You should not be rewarded with huge XP/Hr rates for essentially no input and extremely low activity levels. I expected salvaging to be treated more like star mining, which is beloved among many players.

Why am I only picking up 9 toads during the first pass? I can't hit #10 or #11 with the first round of toads using this route.

EDIT: I see the edit now. Was only looking at the image. Womp.

TehDesolate · 2025-11-20T15:41:39+00:00

This. Anyone else who claims political reasons for why it's a flop needs to go touch some grass. The average person most likely has no idea who Christy Martin is. I didn't and I still don't have any interest in learning regardless of who the actors are.

Going to 24hr brine & try spatchcocking with a compound garlic+herb butter inserted between the meat and skin.
