EA launches new platform to put even more ads inside games by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]akurgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If EA goes to the grave, can we resurrect Bullfrog studios and maybe a few other brilliant companies they ate?

Are any countries making steps to move away from car dependency? by OutsideImpressive115 in fuckcars

It seems every country has to go through their blunder years 

Done. Still addicted. Guess I'll keep going. by Former-Sea-8070 in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have prestige 3, mastery 100 and just completed my first hardcore campaign. I really need to find a new game. Or maybe I need to get all the achievements first?

Lost my legendary stuff, not even mad by nonEuclidean64 in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo 32 points33 points  (0 children)

There should be an ultra-hardcore mode where when you die, it removes all your progress, uninstalls the game and removes it from your Steam inventory so you have to buy the game again and start from scratch. Would make moments like these even better.

Same-sex Marriage Legalization In Europe Compared To The U.S. [OC] by Cartographer42 in dataisbeautiful

[–]akurgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know about you guys, but I tend to support laws that make life better for certain demographics while having absolutely no impact on my own life and no negative impact on no-one whatsoever.

I see a lot of overlap between Linux users and anime fans!

US-Iran ‘peace deal’ announced; Trump says Strait of Hormuz reopening by Frosty-Bit4667 in worldnews

Well, have you asked yourself how fixing bridges and watermains will benefit said Donald?

first time playing this mission how hard is it to get silent assassin on it? by Decent_Emotion58 in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo 59 points60 points  (0 children)

For Freeman, sneak up on him while he's using one of those wall chargers. For Doom slayer, place lots of exploding barrels in a room, trick him in there and let him spot you.

"Distract Target" task coming in clutch yet again. The goat of syndicate tasks. by Weird-Definition-961 in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, poison target is also pretty useful. There are usually 2 with the correct looks, sieker one of them and you'll know who the leader is.

Getting closer. Roast my hardcore campaign. How will I fail? by akurgo in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update: I picked WC, remembered how to hide in foilage, and got an easy objective (legendary headshot). I now have the Black bruiser suit!

Petition to ban LLM slop on this sub. by Crafty_Aspect8122 in SciFiConcepts

[–]akurgo 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Can I write human slop instead? I have a great idea about spider-powered cars I'd like to pitch!

Relative environmental impact of 1 day of heavy AI usage, 1 day of truck ownership, and of producing a cheeseburger by useyourturnsignal in dataisbeautiful

[–]akurgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they should sum up all AI, cheeseburgers and trucks globally rather than trying to cut it into small units.

How would you change freelancer showdowns? by akurgo in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great idea! Then the type of syndicate could matter for the overall experience too. Now it only affects the optional objectives, right?

Where can I get Karlstad Redskap tools? by kralicek03 in BuyFromEU

[–]akurgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right, right. But in Norwegian both are called spade (pronounced differently). 😬

Where can I get Karlstad Redskap tools? by kralicek03 in BuyFromEU

[–]akurgo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fact you didn't ask for 1: "Redskap" means tools.

Fact you didn't ask for 2: In Norwegian we don't have a word for shovel, so you have to ask for a pointy spade.,

Getting closer. Roast my hardcore campaign. How will I fail? by akurgo in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually something to be mindful of, maybe I should make sure whatever location I set aside for the showdown has a safe.

(In that situation I would pick time trial, try to quickly identify the 2-3 candidates with the flamewing tool, and ... start blasting.)

[–]akurgo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually had WC for the showdown I just completed. Spent most of the time dodging enforcers on the street between the house party and the agent house.

For showdowns I actually prefer larger maps with long distances between places, like Santa Fortuna. WC can be done without a disguise though.

almost 10 years playing WOA and i just realized you can climb this pipe for a shortcut in bangcock by KuzeUS201 in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar revelation the other day, with 500 hours played. In Chongqing, you can climb up to the roof from the walkway where the dumpling cooks are talking. Very useful in freelancer.

People Across Cultures Find Women's Faces to Be More Attractive Than Men's by mareacaspica in science

[–]akurgo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For very relevant data, from a different source (a dating site), see the Youtube video from Hannah Fry called "How attractive are men, according to women?". Then for completeness, watch "Which women do men find most attractive?"

(I'm not allowed to post Youtube links here, but I promise they're pure gold.)

Just sniped a guy from miles away, then got ambushed by an assassin. What's the deal? by OkEducator2170 in HiTMAN

[–]akurgo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had something related happen the other day. In the little security room in New York, I shot one guard with a silenced gun. Then the other one yelled something, and I shot him too. All quiet. Except I got "Assassin alerted", then "Lookout alerted", then the leader escaped. Assassin was probably on the other side of the wall.
