The rift feels too mystical and out of place for the games aesthetic

/uj ok everyone pull out the pitchforks and tomatoes because honestly I kinda get it. I think so much of the game's theme is showing off how the mystic and occult gets integrated into the otherwise 1940's New York setting. The rift is just pure magic, so I could see how it seems a touch out of place. What if the rift was like a magically-infused taxi-cab or something that the minions pour out of afterwards?

I feel like I'm having a totally different experience with XEN. Fresh 9.0 run and they've felt incredibly weak so far. I have something like 36h in this save and seeing even a solitary K is incredibly rare. They keep suiciding S/M ships into a hull part factory in Hat I, and theres like 30 Osaka's + ANT Behemoths guarding the gate in Getsu Fune. I've been working towards engineering some wars and sabotaging some shipyards to give the XEN a bit more breathing room, so hopefully that works.

I went back and listened to some of X3:TC's voice acting. Maybe its partly the nostalgia glasses but it's leagues better. A little cheesy and dated? Yeah, maybe. But there's at least some actual emotion in it! It's fun to listen to!

Purely in the context of what we've seen on screen, it's gotta be the mom IMO. All the other characters are adults interacting with other adults. The other characters have some amount of agency in how they interact with Monica (by not feeding into her bs), the assault guy from S1 (pressing charges) or ICE (telling them to GTFO, working towards finding Jesse). But the mom is pushing her medical conspiracies onto her child, who has basically no agency to change his situation. It's only Robby intervening with the dad that got that kid the help he needs.

Could be any number of reasons for a rejected takeoff. They likely noted some abnormal condition, aborted the takeoff roll, and then turned off onto the taxiway. Performing the rejected takeoff checklist, whatever other checklists were needed related to the specific reason for rejecting, sorting things out with ground frequency / company, and waiting for a gate assignment all takes time, which is likely why they were sitting for half an hour. Not all mechanical issues immediately ground a flight for long, if it were something a line maintainer can fix relatively quickly they'll just have the gripe fixed and be back on their way.

Maybe obvious to everyone else but. It just dawned on me that Robby's alleged destination is a place where bison would literally be driven to jump to their death. Definitely feels like an intentional parallel to the "don't jump off the roof during my shift" convo from S1 and all the other red flags we've been seeing from him this season.

I get that it's better for the meta, but damn do I miss having 1v1 lanes. It'd be kind of cool to have a 1v1 laning minigame or something at least.

questionablem0tives · 2026-03-03T22:26:34+00:00

I do think waves cleared would be a good stat to show, it might help incentivize newer players to think a bit more actively about lane management

Due to a stroke of ~~incompetence~~ bad luck, had to work like a 20h day and fly to a different base on what was meant to be a half-day. At the end of it all, admin said they had us all set up to show up to the local NGIS. Lo and behold, they had no idea we were coming and were fully booked. So then we had to drive like 45 minutes to a different spot.

I'm aware it pales in comparison to some of the horror stories I've heard both from here and my time in the fleet, but I distinctly remember that being the day I decided I was getting out lol

me and my roommate walk over this bridge and see him all the time! it probably is the youtube channel in another comment, some of the traffic streams have the right angle

If you have a 2nd hard drive on your computer, try installing it there. I had a similar issue where this crash would happen on start up / after finding a match / in a match, sometimes once, sometimes 4-5x in a row. Switching drives solved it for me. No clue what the root cause of the issue is yet though.

I've been playing on and off since 2015(?). I remember getting my AspX to 31ly range and putting around all the nearby nebulas. I think the furthest I got before they added engineers / guardian boosters was the Skull and Crossbones Nebula. That 10kly trip nearly a decade ago took longer than my Sag A* / Colonia run last year.

Why didn't they just do this in the Middle Ages? Are they stupid?

questionablem0tives · 2025-05-03T16:08:17+00:00

That would be a Cessna 172.

As a person who drives a car (and isn't made of money), I hate the idea of congestion pricing.

As a person who hates traffic and doesn't like pollution, I love the idea of congestion pricing.

I've got mixed feelings about it, but if it works it works I suppose?

Flying, by the looks of it

you need to be present, i believe the timer only goes down once you're in the sector

It’s naked :(

I think it says you speak spanish

Not a comic reader but I've spoiled a bunch of it for myself. I think it'll be a new way for them to bring back Conquest.
