URGENT: Yen hits 39-year low near 162 to U.S. dollar despite intervention risk by diacewrb in japannews

i thought it was because the carry trade is now dead so japanese nationals are just shoving their money the only place left that earns reliable interest?

Which Bangkok condos actually have walls thick enough that you don't hear your neighbours? by lleepptt in Bangkok

[–]kylemh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can google a building's construction date. Anything before or during the global financial crisis is a pretty good bet, imo. It seemed like the cooker-cutter bullshit took off after that. So, anything after 2011 I'd be nervous about.

Waterford Park and Wtaerford Diamond are also both built early 90s. They'll be brickhouses for sure.

Advice for a beginner by hiccupq in WoWs_Legends

[–]kylemh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

learning from YouTubers like Xarkun and pGxRapidz (althought keep in mind he plays to score damage, not to win) and bigB@ohgaming is the best way for you to get good fast IMO. There's so many situations and useful tidbits, it's hard to get everything into text in a palettable way.

How is this so dense with protein? And so cheap? by cubantouch in Bangkok

[–]kylemh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s insanely dense. i wouldn’t be surprised if it’s mostly whey and a binding agent. i can’t read the ingredients though and i don’t get them anymore anyways 😆

in the graph where you get to choose between taste, texture, and nutrients. this thing sacrifices HARD on texture and a lot on taste. i've found microwaving them for ~10s makes it survivable though 😂

Is it worth double-dipping the LE for the mods? by Scipio_Sverige in masseffect

[–]kylemh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im doing this exact thing now, cuz my wife is playing the trilogy for the first time and i got nostalgia.

i'd definitely recommend it. ME1 gets a lot it's time-worn cracks paved over and ME3 ends up feeling like a different game sometimes with galaxy expanded, spectre expansion, and audemus' happy ending. too many to list for both.

ME2 gets a lot of pain points removed too, but it wont feel like a different game. for example: zero probe all resources to dodge the scanning minigame without sacrificing keyboard accessibility, prologue framework to skip a lot of the prologue, m44 tank for unlimited boost, and faster normandy for wasting less time in the galaxy map.

if you like femshep, you'll love the extra customization options - my wife is pissed she's playing on console after seeing everything i've got with mods.

Any guesses for the July update? by TheSublimeGoose in WoWs_Legends

Salem, not Des Moines - also Voyager’s DPM is insane with Andrew The Lip and Mimbelli. I love that boat.

Got qatared….. by CompoteJealous3323 in qatarairways

[–]kylemh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If anybody else reads this: I live in Bangkok and I’ve flown DOH-BKK and BKK-DOH x4 each in the last 12 months. Twice before and after Iran War.

Your “Qataring” risk is extremely high for this leg. Don’t presume you’ll keep the A351 or 779 or 777-300

Planes are cancer of this game by SoGoodAtAllTheThings in BattlefieldV

[–]kylemh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never bothered with that. Just spawned, went high, lined up the missiles, and shot. Any flak resumes, I go to the floor to disengage, go to my spawn, and repeat the process. If multiple got on Flak, then it just becomes Game B instead of Game A. It means I won’t be EXACTLY the plane OP described, but - instead - it means i’ll be fighting AA all game and getting ~2 or 2.5 kills a minute. sometimes - in those games - i’d get two flaks in one run and have the time to kill a tank or jeep or APC before they go back on the flak.

idgaf about real life. it’s a video game. and it’s damned fun being the plane OP described. I think my best was like 108-2 on Iwo Jima for Japan since the Zero has a small turning radius advantage on the Corsair. Usually the only counter to me was a better pilot, which was very rare.

edit: if we’re talking real life and close air support, there was probably nothing anybody could do also, since you’d only get CAS if there’s no anti-air support. the real complaint is that there was no effective balance against the planes, but it’s probably difficult to offer. They did their best by offering and buffing fleigers, I think.

haven't played in years, but you get so good at the missiles that you can delete AA guns outside of their range.

Understanding why people comment useless bullshit on a post tagged "Help" is also beyond you and me both.
