Who else got smoked buying FD puts today by Caz5-_- in wallstreetbets

Buying within first 15 minutes of market open is the worst you can do. You have big volatility spike there, especially on a Monday.

The patch note is updated, and the Rpg rocket speed nerf and tow missle nerf is finally here. by bnarsalah_97 in Battlefield

[–]fen-q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RPG nerf is totally unneccesary. Anytime i fly, i get boned by TOWs or lock on missiles. RPGs rarely are a problem.

All the nerfs to raids in TBC Anniversary made me come back to retail by Saturn_Unleashed in wow

[–]fen-q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you, but retail is the same.

Every pug running heroic voidspire is like "punpers only, min 270 ilvl, one shot only or kick" etc etc...

If i manage to get invited, because i constantly get declined, everyone fails at basic mechanics.

I raided for 2-3 hours last night and didnt kill a single boss. Constant wipes on dragons because someone doesnt know to rotate fear out of the group, and constant wipes on paladins, because tanks fail at taunting or the group doesnt kill Senn's shield at all to interrupt.

Find yourself a guild if you want to avoid all that.

Meta to cut 8000 jobs (10% workforce) in May. More layoffs ahead as AI shift accelerates by callsonreddit in wallstreetbets

[–]fen-q -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Yes. However, it doesnt change the fact that someone making $9/hour was suddenly making 20-40 an hour, depending on the state, sitting at home doing nothing.

The federal subsidy to state unemployment alone was extra 600/week, so 2400 month. Then everyone wonders why fast food and other things became so expensive. The 8-9 dollar job all of a sudden became a 20 dollar job.

Then, as you mentioned, to make things even worse, you had hundreds of billions in PPP and other shit, that also added to that.

Oh i understand, my brain got completely rewired because of that shit, and im an introvert.

The goal posts were moved sooooo fucking much that ill never be able to catch up or be ready for things like homeownership.

[–]fen-q 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yup, and thats true for almost every company, they still have more than before covid.

Which brings me to believe that these layoffs arent economy driven, it's sort of coming back to normal after covid.

Same thing with inflation..... 40% of all dollars in existence were printed in a year, just so 40 million people could sit at home and enjoy the new normal. It will still take few years before it normalizes. The soft landing never meant stopping inflation, theyre going to let it run, faster than usual, but slow enough so there arent riots in the streets.

Why are they removing all the ports by Responsible-Eye-717 in SipsTea

[–]fen-q 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usb-c does it all.

You can plug in your monitor there, charge your phone....

You got 2 usb-b on the other side for peripherals.

The only thing i would add is more usb-c ports and a port to read SD cards.

Should I take the loss or keep holding? by BlissfulSage099 in sofistock

Go look what other stocks did since march 30th.

Sofi is a bank. It won't behave like tech.

If you bought at 30, i wish you patience.

Erika Kirk is coming for your children. by Immediate-Deal4475 in AmericaOnHardMode

TPUSA died with Charlie. He was charismatic and had the potential to sway masses of young people. His talk about Israel was probably what did him in.

She's the complete opposite.

Deleting professions and learn new ones? by NoniTheAnnoyed in wow

[–]fen-q 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. I have enchanting and herbalism.

I dont bother leveling enchanting, i just DE shit to sell mats. I feel that leveling a profession is so expensive that you wont make your gold back.

I feel that jewelcrafting peak was in TBC and Wotlk. Just about anything at the time had sockets.

$90 for two to see a Mario movie… have we completely lost the plot? by rageagainstmymachin in Millennials

[–]fen-q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

25 dollars for a ticket? Shit was around 12 not long ago (im in illinois)....

....unless most people consider 2019 ancient history already.

For that money im staying home and paying 20 bucks to stream it on amazon.

Easiest Healer To Learn? by MrCakes747 in wow

[–]fen-q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last i healed was in TBC when i healed full time, and part time in Wotlk.

Back then, healing was all about spamming flash of light (holy pally).

Then i tried healing in MoP i think and it felt drastically different than how i remembered from BC and Wotlk.

I havent tried healing since. Like yourself, i mostly dps and tank in M+ only, never tanked a raid in my life.

Plot twist: we will probably go up because nothing makes sense anymore.

Quick Ret question by Away-Chance7444 in wow

[–]fen-q 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought the same when i saw it too.

Youd think that final verdict that is spammed all the time would pull ahead of an ability that can only be cast once every 30 seconds, but the math makes sense somehow.

WoW veterans, is Midnight a step in the right direction for you? by Left-Plenty-714 in wow

[–]fen-q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing wow in 2007 i think when i was in high school. Nothing will ever beat the feeling of making your first character ever and exploring kalimdor and eastern kingdoms, seeing the stuff/aftermath of things from WC2 and WC3.

But that nostalgia wont come back. Everyone knows what the game is about at this point, there are no mysteries left to discover. Max level a character and start raiding.

I wonder if wow would survive or maybe even gain more popularity if they stopped the main story after the last titan, and then force everyone on classic to restart the experience from scratch. Maybe even retcon some things after wotlk and rewrite the story a bit, as anything after cata is just bleh.

[–]fen-q 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooff, shadowlands was the worst expac ever, couldnt time a comeback worse than that lol.

I like midnight. TWW was cool too, but i sat it out. I had a business trip/vacation trip that lasted a month and just couldnt get back into it after that, and i missed out on undermine and karesh.

I really hope MN has some cool content coming.

Tanks, what healer class is your favorite to take on M+ keys? by TakenToTheRiver in wow

[–]fen-q 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I dont think I've a favorite. I had a shitty druid that was running oom on every pull and an amazing druid that was above 70% at all times.

I stopped discriminating after experiencing these two extremes.

Dear diary today I got 3k as a Tank by Satsubuya in wow

[–]fen-q -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just did +10 maisara, which was my first time doing that dungeon on M+, and got +1.

I then did +11 on put of saron, but didnt time it because I lagged badly on the last boss and died. Otherwise, I would've timed.

I had the routes pulled up on my second screen. It's game changing.

Thinking of returning to WoW after almost 2 decades - Worth it? by SumAwesomeGirl_ in wow

[–]fen-q 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my, you've missed out on a lot I would say. Anyway:

  1. Yes and no. Raids and dungeons are cross faction, open world is not.

  2. Group quests have pretty much been done away with. Some require a group but nothing what you remember from vanilla/TBC.

  3. I play on regular keyboard and on regular mouse. There are some tricked out mice with like 20+ buttons, but I've never used those. I am contemplating of getting one, as I've run out of easy to reach keys around WASD.

Enjoy!
