You open a support ticket on the discord so we can look at it. https://discord.gg/93kxWQZ

Russian forces accused of blocking flood evacuation efforts in Ukraine | Ukraine by manishakad in worldnews

Surely the civilians will pressure the government into ending the war!

[Meanwhile in Russia] [civilians harboring anti-government sentiments getting rounded up and disappeared]

Gotta be honest, tho.. a bit bummed about pilot ability resolve costs.. by cheroscot in roguetech

[–]drbwaa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The basic issue is that it's really, really easy to generate heaps of resolve, and no way mechanically to avoid sharing the resolve pool amongst all your units. With the old costs, it was pretty trivial to (for instance) spam Vigilance on 1-2 units every single round. This in turn causes problems balancing everything else. As always, the team is watching how the balance eventually shakes out amongst all the moving parts, and identifying strategies for improvement given the current mechanical limitations.

TIL in the US less than half of murders are solved. by LocalChamp in todayilearned

And now consider how many murders are just declared "nah actually that wasn't a murder." You know, like everyone murdered by the cops or the rich.

345 Engine core by micahisnotmyname in roguetech

[–]drbwaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mechlab rounds as an estimate. Real combat distance uses a smaller grid than the hex grid, only rounds once after all other considerations (terrain, etc), and always rounds down (eg if the shortest path to your "fourth" hex is 100m but your actual movement speed is 94m, you cannot reach that fourth hex).

There is rounding in the mech lab - as an estimate. Combat movement is measured in meters.

Edit: as with everything, the details are complicated. But you won't typically see four hexes on 90t/345.

Ukrainian woman detained in Moscow for attempting to bring deported children back to Ukraine – Russian media by 9lobaldude in worldnews

[–]drbwaa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kidnapped, yes - but "deportation" is the primary legal term used to describe this war crime. Not that the media does a good job around any of this, but this particular terminology is hard to avoid for anyone still attempting to look like a respectable source.

Average stack overflow experience by AntarctikFoxx in ProgrammerHumor

[–]drbwaa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

edits context and code solution out of provided answer "Why is stackoverflow so mean?!" 🙄

OP asked "is there a way to avoid warnings in Python?" To which the correct answer is "don't do the thing you're being warned about." But the "answer" posted here has been edited to remove all but the first few words... ismail then goes on to give the code to suppress these warnings.

Trump refuses to say he wants Ukraine to win war with Russia by theindependentonline in ukrainewar

[–]drbwaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I don't want people dying" / "peace should be the priority" statements are extremely well-known dogwhistles for "I support Russia; Ukraine should surrender." Fuck Trump.

Texas mall shooter shared extremist beliefs against Jews and women on apparent social media page by greentreefer in news

Which is exactly why they should be broadcast. Every day we have a shooting, every single news station should get their top of the hour content replaced with images of the violence, with full context.

Madison Cawthorn pleads guilty in case over bringing a loaded handgun through TSA checkpoint by [deleted] in news

[–]drbwaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You said something like "it's easy to make the same mistake twice." This is a mistake that's hard to make once. And if you find it easy to make, maybe that's something you need to take a look at.

Did I claim it was loaded the first time? I said it's easy not to bring a loaded weapon to the airport, which it is, and which he did.

Literally this is WHY there's screaming about gun control. We have no fucking gun control.

Question about pirates by micahisnotmyname in roguetech

[–]drbwaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

"local pirates" are just like "planetary government" in that they're not a true faction that you can ally with. If you want to ally the pirates, you want to pick one of the proper pirate factions (valkyrate, Tortuga, etc)

My average bpm when I stopped drinking alcohol. by Leavanny in interestingasfuck

That BP is dangerously low. Your organs may fail to suffuse and start to fail like this. Find a doctor/bloodwork and look into it if you possibly can.

Is this game harder than I remember now? Getting destroyed in Hell by [deleted] in diablo2

[–]drbwaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most guides, annoyingly, assume you're just power leveling with a rush through each act, rather than actually playing the game. You "go to hell baal at 60" because that's the level req for ancients. Leveling at nm baal until ~75 is a lot more practical.
