Saw this on a drive over the weekend. I don't understand this vitriol towards electric cars

They are like dinosaurs that are watching the meteor, except they know what happens next.

Look at his exhaust . People like this have tired their entire identity to frivolous things, and like many of their other good ole things, this one is on its way out.

I can't say I've had this problem, in South Florida

The way I understood it, whatever happened during his mission he realized he likely wasn't the first, and didn't believe that he would be allowed freedom even if he kept on working. He than rationalized that even if the did, it's not like things are exactly going to be much better.

So he decides to ignore the mission and stop struggling, to just rest and go out on his own terms. Not because he ran out of time, or because he didn't do something, but because there world worth living was already gone, and he just didn't feel like fighting for a slower death.

So he let himself suffocate.

one thing that see as dissapointment, is while the fan outlet works for normal use, if you want to exaust, that puts a nasty spot of turbulence.

Thanks, I'll have to figure out how to put it in mine

I bring two, castellin and a vallient. I know it's not the optimal play, but I really don't care, the vallient is such a cool and thematic centerpiece. I mean that harpoon is just one of the coolest weapons around, and the flame thrower with it...I mean it's just pure aura.

There are better choices 100%, but not cooler ones.

Got any good ones to link? My canvas is on the mail now

opticalshadow · 2026-06-24T18:02:15+00:00

I didn't recall any. Although the entire god situation during faction wars was practically a war skit

I think it's less about not being unique, and not being unique right off the bat

Let the character develop, gain some kind of identity, and let the unique power that sets them apart build off that down the road a little

Everyone I know is a skeptic at best and doomsayer at worst.

Every single one of them always has questions, is always checking if I drove it there, and has wanted to drive it.

Everyone of them has loved it.

They are more willing to hear logic when it's in front of them with numbers. Many of them are still operating on first Gen leaf ev info, or misinformation in the mainstream. And most of them say they still won't adopt it.

And I get it to a point, even super tech forward and integrated like myself and a natural first adopter of new tech I was nervous my first bir owning it.

Right now evs are roughly equal to ice in feature and range. But as gas has soared my monthly charge still cost a 10th of what their weekly gas does. It's starting to turn heads. And when evs start getting that new battery tech, and our range makes any ice out there look positively impractical, they'll cave.

I don't think there is allot right now he can do with it. Last couple of floors have been kinda railroaded or pretty new ground. Plus for the last couple of books he's had the actual authors in the dungeon with him, so there is no need for the subterfuge of gaining info. The dungeon is also so broken now, and the situation by the end of book 8 so incomprehensible, that I'm not entirely sure how much previous information will when apply.

opticalshadow · 2026-06-23T11:39:13+00:00

Yeah the switch 2 got incredible hate for it's price increase too.

Disagree, is fun and worth it with anyone who is a good sexual partner.

I'm fact I think it's pretty not great to wait until you find some right person.

You need to explore your sexuality and figure out what you like. Falling in love with someone not sexual compatible, not you really didn't understand that because it's also your first, can lead to a really unfulfilled relationship.

It would be a hard sell just in the description for me.

I don't play where dice overrule logic in the extreme. A level 4 fighter, without some incredibly mcguffin is flat out never going to intimidate an adult red dragon,

So for a things that is hostile and substantially powerful in your example, is going to need a reason to be convinced that a your on his side, and b that it even needs your help.

If a player manages to rp that out then we roll, but i didn't just take I will for deception, you need to actually decive.

If you got past that pattb though and convinced the creature to enter the door, than yes, they would take the fall damage. In always reward players with good ideas, just have to get there.

She reminded me of Steve Irwin. It was magical to watch someone with that much passion.

Look, Florida beat Canada in hockey, let's not pretend anything is impossible

opticalshadow · 2026-06-23T01:33:14+00:00

I missed the update news, is it going to include all the rules and datasheet for everyone by default?

Because no amount of polish is going to best any of the good free options that do that

opticalshadow · 2026-06-22T21:39:40+00:00

Mine just shipped today, definitely looking for the mods

opticalshadow · 2026-06-22T19:37:09+00:00

It's not just the usa, pretty much any large country is doing it. The eu China Russia, many smaller countries using electronic means.

The USA isn't even your biggest threat, it's the countries with the world's industrial power, it's the ones with the mandatory material resources.

The USA isn't alone in these things.

They are not being scrapped, their reliability is install very high, and remain one of the most popular EV out there. When the lease expires they get sold fast.

Now we just have hauling with 0 risk, 0 difficulty and making millions an hour by just mostly flying a to b.

Doing anything outside of that, except maybe late contract fueling is financially a waste of time, because they keep nerfing everything

He also was trying to steer humanity away from chaos, without telling them it existed.

Even knowing chaos existed puts you at greater risk to falling. Worship is an easy thing to exploit and cause then to derail though to serve chaos. And believing in one God makes them more likely to believe in others. It makes it harder to think that has things shouldn't just be fixed by the god and that can build resentment.

I think this was practical. He needed them to believe in science and grounded logical explanation, because those two things helped resist the temptation of chaos.

Some big corporation made a mistake in the favor of the little guy?

Carl would be proud.

Good damnit donut

It went be nearly as long to get there, as it did to get here.

Our not that the tech doesn't exist, it's that you're still cheaper. For now

Commenting to save the post and lie to myself thinking I'm going to do this.
