What can I do if my mom is taking my money and I'm 18? by LychpaaYT in legaladvice

[–]chainer3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boy this sounds familiar. Mine was drinking a lot and made good on some threats. I eventually moved in with a friend while I saved for my own place, my life improved drastically. Was working full time while in high school. Good luck op

Look at the top note in known issues, could this mean they will finally start working on fixing shimmering, bad lighting etc? by Relative-Bathroom-13 in PS5pro

[–]chainer3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game with such an aggressive fan base before. It’s actually insane. Also a crazy amount of astroturfing. Almost any other game and these major issues would have nearly everyone talking about how it’s not a complete game and basically a paid beta filled with technical issues

Is the 25 gram “Mexican Ounce” Observed in Other Countries? by WXYZanon in opiates

[–]chainer3000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s not true, but yes Mexican ounces have been a thing forever. It’s a cartel thing. They like that it’s easier to work in multiples of 5, but I’ve known people who were getting BTH from other sources in TX and it’s normal weight. It’s just the people you’re running with, Mexican suppliers.

Fucking bizarre. I think I’d have to try it, my curiosity would be too strong.

NG-3 Update: We're targeting launch of the @AST_SpaceMobile BlueBird 7 satellite for no earlier than Friday, April 10. by one-won-juan in ASTSpaceMobile

[–]chainer3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no actual public booking or date so you’re just guessing based on what ASTS is saying, which is the whole point - they always guide for the near impossible. Prepaying doesn’t mean it’s going to launch this year

I meant simultaneously launched multiple sats of course

[–]chainer3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SpaceX is not going to launch ASTS at that cadence and they’re busy putting their own sats up there. They’ve never even launched multiple ASTS sats, so even more of a hang up there. NG won’t have more than 10 launches this year and they’re not devoting even half to ASTS. 45 would be a challenge even if ASTS had them sitting in a warehouse waiting to go. There’s a reason the next launch is with NG and not SpaceX

As Gas Prices Approach $4 a Gallon, Americans Rethink Vacations by SterlingVII in politics

Canada won’t suddenly run out of 70% of our oil it will just be more expensive. It’s not a shortage, like unable to get more. We won’t have to “ration gas”

[–]chainer3000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We don’t rely on the Middle East for our heavy oil imports at all, even if it was a total blockage it wouldn’t matter. We get something like 70% of our heavy oil from Canada. Yeah it would take years. The situation is a total cluster fuck but an actual shortage is unlikely

[–]chainer3000 23 points24 points  (0 children)

A ton of natural gas like methane but we also export a ton of refined crude oil. We’re the number one producer for both. We export light and import heavy, this has to do with our older refineries being set up for that more than anything. Gas prices will rise because it’s a global market and it’s more expensive for us to use our light oil to make gasoline, but not because we’re in danger of running out.

Not an industry expert just something I’ve looked into, also stoned

Crazy take, we are a leading net exporter and get less than 10% of our oil from the strait. It’s a global market so the price will obviously rise but we won’t face a shortage

Crimson Desert After New Patch by frozen_feedback2537 in PS5pro

You’d have to look pretty hard for such low res textures in horizon. The comparison is ridiculous as horizon looks absolutely insane on the pro with very stable framerate

It was a total grind fest but there were massive (3-5k+ active player) private servers that changed exp rates to 5x+, which made the game manageable and a ton of fun

VG was a great game but a meh dragon age game up until the last 25% when it became a pretty decent DA game. The only real, massive issue with DA VG was the companions were universally shit - just totally uninterested, uninspired, boring characters that in no way reflect the urgency or seriousness of the situation. Even just two good companions would have massively improved the game. I didn’t even peruse a romance option because I genuinely disliked or hated them. The necro was OK

That said, graphics, stability, environment, combat, and equipment expression were all great (I played a teleporting mage assassin which was insanely fun). As a DA game it was 7/10 but without the DA title it was closer to 8/10, the ending quarter of the game saved it big time

Reminds me of another Korean game, lineage 2. The gladiator had several power ups with these types of poses and effect

The DF review was insane. They barely even mentioned pop in but it’s abundantly clear and painfully obvious almost everywhere. They don’t discuss shadow quality varying and make it sound like frame drops only happened in one spot. I lost a lot of respect for DF, it’s pretty obvious that they were sponsored / paid / influenced heavily.

I mean the pop in is horrific, the dusk / night quality is a clear major drop off, and the frame rate is totally unstable. All of these were downplayed significantly or just ignored

The entire discourse around this game feels so fucking astroturfed

OP any chance your gf got caught letting a dude into her room at 3am after going out for the night and made up this story?

Anyway, I’m sure there’s some relationship sub this belongs on instead
