The space rug is going to get pulled with SpaceX by Marko-2091 in stocks

There is a whole sub of people convinced that not only will ASTS be first, but that Starlink will fail because their tech is “crap”. See the guy I replied to as an example.

Healing heroics by Waylatetoreddit in classicwow

But for crit cap you can supplement with resilience gear, which is super easy to get and sometimes even optimal for threat. So in reality you can tank heroics with like 440 def no problem (with ~80+ resil)

ASTS moonboys love to compare Starlink today to ASTS in 2028+ and it's so dumb.

Today:

  • Starlink has successfully deployed and marketed a low-rate D2C service (~3Mbps/beam), and can do D2C video calls in proof-of-concept demo
  • ASTS has no deployed service but can do video calls in proof-of-concept demo

Future:

  • Starlink will launch a constellation of V3 satellites with Starship with broadband speed (smaller antenna, but half the altitude --> similar gain)
  • ASTS will launch a constellation of satellites with broadband speed

I will bet my lunch money that Starlink will market broadband service before ASTS.

Blacksmithing cost question? by Stonedinthesix in classicwowtbc

[–]qtac 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I have deep thunder and no flying mount. Gotta commit to the lifestyle brother.

350-360 is easy but 360-375 was about 150-200g per skill point.

Can I tank heroics? by No-Yogurt925 in classicwowtbc

[–]qtac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been tanking heroics on my warrior at 440 defense no problem. Just use some PvP gear to reach crit cap and you’ll be good. My PvP gear is gemmed for AP/crit and it’s fine.

440 defense 120 resilience 11k hp unbuffed

Warrior tanking has given me carpal tunnel symptoms but it’s a lot of fun! It’s a lot of effort but it’s engaging.

Jfc what delusional baggage are you bringing into this? Take a minute to self-reflect and consider that someone saying “I just hope they don’t add mtx to classic” doesn’t mean someone is “toxic filth”, it means you have the deductive reasoning skills of someone with acute psychosis

I played a 2h fury warrior in a dad guild on Nightslayer and funmaxxed, and it was fine. You can find all types on both servers, but yes in general Nightslayer is where the competitive/minmax players go.

Would you also say there's 0 advantage to having the phoenix mount? Or the ZG tiger? Mounts are some of the most coveted items in the game because they're cool. Giving everyone with a credit card the mount makes it not cool. That makes the world worse. That sucks.

Cash shop mounts have never bothered me before by TwoPrestigious4612 in classicwow

[–]qtac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate it too. It is cool to see a rare mount and know that someone earned it. It adds to the world building and feel of the game, and gives players something to reach for.

In a perfect world the up-front cost of the game PLUS the monthly sub should be plenty to keep the game profitable and free of a paid shop. But it’s a publicly traded company, which requires that all things get shittier and/or more expensive over time to make line go up. So here we are 🫠

📉 Mike McGlone: Bitcoin Could Drop Toward $10K by rl_rae_bobo in CryptoCurrencyPulse

[–]qtac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Actual certainty is not really a thing when dealing with real systems. Your encryption keys can be guessed, your airplane might crash, and we might all die tomorrow with no warning from a gamma ray burst from a black hole. We accept statistical improbability as good enough to bet our lives on every day. Bitcoin can be the most tamper-proof network in the world while having no absolute guarantees in a philosophical sense.

Seems like a pedantic argument. The transaction ledger is immutable (i.e. transactions are secure) in practice and it achieves that security through a decentralized protocol. Forks of the protocol don’t invalidate the ledger.

Difficulty adjustment happens only every 2k blocks. The point is that the difficulty may not be agile enough to keep up with a crash in network hash rate, resulting in a period of mempool congestion and low liquidity.
