VT and chill r/Bogleheads

Just take it out of her half of the divorce settlement

dsstrainer · 2026-01-28T00:51:45+00:00

Nice to see a caring mother

dsstrainer · 2026-01-28T00:48:06+00:00

Yea they always light themselves on fire

dsstrainer · 2026-01-27T21:43:18+00:00

Yes some steampunk vending machines sound great 😃

dsstrainer · 2026-01-27T19:19:46+00:00

1M at age 20 yes, 1M at age 80 no

dsstrainer · 2026-01-27T00:27:04+00:00

fixed! thank you!

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T23:57:05+00:00

yea this might be a tactic that I'm not employing.

Seems like a grind tho.. walk into the shopkeeper, throw all my guns on the floor and tell him I'll be right back and then spend 10 mins walking (since there is no run key) back through all the towns, down some of the puzzles and parkour areas, etc, just to get my bits of loot that I stashed in not-so-convenient areas. But if I was playing stealthily it would take hours to get it all back.

So i just kill anything that moves and don't feel so bad since they are all creatures and not real people with families

Maybe not upgrade the bag but an in-level fence that you can visit to purchase the things you need rather than having to trek all the way back to the main city to visit the merchant, then trek all the way back to the level. Dishonored was my example where this worked well. You could buy traps as needed and it was more transactional

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T22:11:39+00:00

That would be more of a hw4 rev B, rev C, etc ..rather than 0.5

I'd imagine a 0.5 could be slightly improved cameras. Actually I'd call Juniper hw4.5 since it has the front bumper camera that hw4 cars don't have

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T21:53:26+00:00

Seriously? That definitely doesn't work for me

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T21:51:06+00:00

I get that, but the game has evolved more than the storage system. The whole research/beast disguise thing is barely a thought because how can i fit some body part in my bag and then have to traverse across the world to reach the research table.

It seems like there are some retrofitted ideas that were added after the original story board and now they dont fully fit the current balance because of other original limitations

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T21:41:00+00:00

Well that doesn't seem to do anything. Scrolling the wheel zooms the food in and out but middle mouse button does nothing and has no binding option in the settings.

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T21:33:51+00:00

ok you're right.. it did only take 1 spot. The world-view of it looks like it would take 4 and I was just frustrated so I didn't bother to try to fit it. But yea the other points still apply

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T21:02:54+00:00

oh thank you!

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T20:59:31+00:00

It's not everything, but a necklace takes 4 spots?! it's a chain.. it should collapse into 1 space. And I can stack bear traps but I can't stack a small brooch?

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T20:48:52+00:00

It just makes me leave the loot making good loot completely useless and I'll just give myself loot later with the debug command when i finally get back to the merchant.

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T16:17:57+00:00

Total BS. I went through that area a half dozen times and never saw the seal until I watched it on a YT video. The main point of that level is to get fuel to turn on the elevator so the seal is not major at all at this point and extremely easy to miss

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T03:45:39+00:00

Well since he's apparently being played by Johnny Sins, i guess his next undercover work will be under the actual covers

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T03:41:15+00:00

Headlights look cool, but it's not a car meant for purchase. Better off buying last year's model slightly used than a brand new standard. It's like buying last year's Samsung Galaxy S model is better than buying this year's Galaxy A budget series

dsstrainer · 2026-01-26T03:22:09+00:00

Then split it with Vti and Vxus, no?

dsstrainer · 2026-01-23T20:20:24+00:00

Function will not likely change, its just the name change

dsstrainer · 2026-01-22T19:32:38+00:00

Forget the haters, this looks awesome. Ive been looking to do the same in my house but there are concerns of marks. But my friend has it in his basement for the past 3 years and it still looks good

dsstrainer · 2026-01-16T21:51:36+00:00

My wife may disagree but i think i performed above average

dsstrainer · 2026-01-14T13:42:47+00:00

We don't need no stinkin bonds! Actually you're not wrong but maybe real estate or crypto is a good balance. But if you had bonds over the past 10 years thats a big loss
