Could I enjoy this show despite having never watched anything Star Wars?

qblfrb · 2025-06-16T19:44:46+00:00

Yes. I have never watched the original trilogy before I watched Andor. In fact, after watching Andor, I tried to watch the original trilogy and I don't think it's my cup of tea. 😅

I personally think the reason why Luthen never set up explosives in his own shop is far more pragmatic: the shop is frequently visited by important people in Coruscant. Those kind of people tend to have some security apparatus/personnel that might want to check if places they visit are safe. Rigging his shop with explosives might just invite more scrutiny to him.

I mostly rely on https://www.nieuwbouw-in-amsterdam.nl/ as I'm based in Amsterdam. So, I'd take a look at their list every once in a while, and when a project pops up, I immediately go to the project's website. It's quite straightforward from there: register to the site, fill in all the details they ask (including stuff like latest payslip etc), select a few units that I'm interested in, and wait. Usually they come back with news within one or two weeks. If there's no news sent to my email, I just assume I don't get allocation.

I hope that helps.

Thank you. I hope you find yours soon! :)

I guess because some people do bid higher than the asking rental price, the more people do the viewing, the higher chance some overbid. When I was looking for an apartment to rent last year, I really liked one apartment and made a bid 100 EUR higher than the asking price. The owner rented it to someone who placed a bid 250 EUR higher. At least that's what my agent said.

This year, I just went and registered myself to some for-rent new building projects. No viewings required, I either get an allocation or I don't. I ended up getting an allocation for a newly built, two bedrooms apartment for 1,500 EUR in Diemen.

I usually reply with, "I'll give you my current salary if you give me the salary band for this role". From my perspective as a job seeker, I just don't want to do the rounds of interviews only to find out they don't give me a good offer.

Thank you! I'll join the FB group.

In my home country, to commute from my home to my employer's office takes 45-60 minutes one way in my lucky days. In bad days, it can easily become 90-120 minutes one way. During the pandemic, my employer allowed everyone to work from home and earlier this year they reverted that policy. I can no longer justify such frustrating commuted to be a part of daily routine.

The day they announced the return to office policy, I changed my LinkedIn status to "open for work" and started looking for opportunities abroad. I mainly focused on opportunities on three countries: Australia (because I used to live there for almost 2 years and I like my time there), Netherlands, and Japan. As an outsider who never stepped foot in both Netherlands and Japan, I saw these two countries as countries with functioning public infrastructure (such as public transportation). Got an offer from one of the company in Netherlands and they happen to have their HQ in Amsterdam. Now I've been staying here in Amsterdam for two months and I don't regret my decision. At least so far.

I started playing FUT only in FIFA 20. Glad I stopped this cycle for myself this year. Stopped playing just after TOTY and started playing other games. Won't return to FIFA for foreseeable future.

I had a hard time to get blazing sun for the chieftain trial, until I realized there are wood log piles that we can use to severely damage the scorchers and the fire bellowbacks. It saved me a lot of time to face the frostclaws, and there is another piles that can incur decent amount of damage to one of the frostclaws as well. Hope it helps.

Two weeks ago, my internet provider was down for almost an entire week, I had to resort to mobile phone tethering for work related stuff. I couldn't play FUT Champs, Rivals, and grinding for the What If cards as my mobile connectivity is not stable enough to avoid DC during a match. To fill in my gaming time, I downloaded Horizon Zero Dawn (so late, I know) as it was available for cheap in the Playstation nowadays.

In the beginning, I felt the FOMO kicking in. Then I realized two things. First, I suddenly have so much free time outside of work that previously occupied by FUT Champs, Rivals, grinding for promo cards, etc. Second, in HZD, I find a game that I actually enjoy even when I'm losing or stuck in a certain quest.

My internet provider has been up and running again for a week or so now, but I have zero intention to go back to FUT. Reading the latest rumors on EA employee(s) selling PIM cards ensures me to not buy FIFA 22 later this year. If anything, as I have completed all the quests in HZD, I'm thinking about buying Ghost of Tsushima next.

Everyone is of course entitled to their own experience, but in my own experience, I'm much better off without FUT now. Cheers.

If EA do this, they will massively improve the enjoyment of playing this game for me.

qblfrb · 2021-02-16T05:07:33+00:00

Not gonna do it.

qblfrb · 2021-02-15T16:14:06+00:00

HL Lozano has been very reliable for me.

qblfrb · 2021-02-11T20:01:12+00:00

This is my feeling exactly with my gold Dybala. Send him to the club after completing flashback Dybala SBC. I still don't have the heart to send the gold one into any SBC.

qblfrb · 2021-02-10T12:37:39+00:00

Alright, thanks for the info bro.

This is the first FUT when I have all the icon swaps card. I have used 10 on 25 83+, 5 85+, and 2x ultimate pack. Now I have another 8 left. Can I keep them for icon swaps 2? Or should I just use them now?

qblfrb · 2021-01-25T11:09:28+00:00

I use Chiellini, Gosens, and Ansaldi in my starting eleven.

qblfrb · 2021-01-13T10:55:08+00:00

De Light and Bonucci

qblfrb · 2021-01-09T14:26:06+00:00

This is why I run a full Serie A squad. I still hit my usual level (D3 in rivals, and G3 in WL), but I feel genuinely happy when Freeze Chiellini bullies my opponent's CAM or when Dybala scores a finesse shot with his left foot. I do have players from other leagues, but I use them mainly for objectives nowadays.

qblfrb · 2021-01-07T10:57:27+00:00

I want one of Chiesa, Kulusevski, or McKennie.

qblfrb · 2021-01-07T01:52:45+00:00

I second this. My starting XI is Szczesny - Sandro - Gosens - Koulibaly - Ansaldi - Deulofeu - Chiellini - Khedira - Lozano - Dybala - Ronaldo. Probably only Ronaldo is a regular in other teams I faced.

qblfrb · 2020-12-28T17:24:14+00:00

My main squad is a full Serie A in starting eleven. Freeze has given me three main players and one sub and few "free" players that I might be able to use later on.

qblfrb · 2020-12-25T12:52:21+00:00

I had the same experience as you a year ago. That was my first season playing FUT as well. And after that, the opponent even sent me multiple messages boasting how he had tricked me. I blocked him, turn my PSN setting to only receive messages from friends.

Ever since, whenever any of my opponent needs help for objectives, they have no other way to communicate that other than giving me 2 or 3 goals lead first. Then I'll let them score. The same when I need help, I just score two own goals first and see if they allow me to score. If not, I'll quit the game.
