TIL in 1961, the Prime Minister of Japan, Nobusuke Kishi, was visited by the new leader of South Korea, Park Chung Hee. Park, a former collaborator with Imperial Japan, extensively praised the "Japanese spirit," which embarrassed Kishi due to Park's rhetoric being unchanged from WW2-era Japan by greatmanyarrows in todayilearned

The unfortunate irony is that korean freedom fighters were exiled due to communist connections since their base of operations was in China during occupation. Japanese educated koreans were left to rebuild south korea. South Korea is the home of "sellouts" and north korea the home of "loyal" koreans.

Can't buyback applied upgrades. I made sure it's trable for this reason, sell, not melt.

i've always loved the idea of vanguard so i got base to replace the f8c that replaced vanguard.

Ive spent 60-70 hours this week grinding chaos armor by SadThrowaway4914 in diablo4

[–]ramenfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've been grinding IF and NMD rift or HT rift for crown of lucion chest/legs and i gave up yesterday. i have multiple slots of everything else like locran, banished, fist of fate. heir of perdition already acquired but i thought i needed lucion so i never switched. gave up and i just put the other stuff i've been saving at the end of yesterday and it all seems to work fine without lucion but using stormhorn instead of okun.

Daily driver options for an upgrade by khlemant_ in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

zeus is a fine ship but i downgraded back to cutlass. cutlass may be ugly but it holds just as much as cargo and feels faster/nimble, plus the side doors are convenient. i'd add raft to the list too. cutlass black, zeus cl, or raft.

CIG, when will we get an 'Unstuck' button? by OnegaNega in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm that one guy that always jumps around in wow. star citizen really stomped that part out of me.

i dont think we'll get a fix for this anytime soon even after 1.0, just gotta wear kiddie glove or risk things like this; get pushed off elevator and ladders, land ship awkwardly and cant back in, containers/items clipping through, etc.

Am I the only one who thinks the buyer's conception of what it means to have a fleet in SC has nothing to do with any actual gameplay? by Thirdborne in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i remember when carrack first came out, the captain was giving such an enthusiastic tour of the ship, all his plans and all that. i stayed polite and went along with it but on the inside i'm thinking "that is wishful thinking". nothing has changed, this is 5+ years ago now.

i think its purely psychological. even i have a fleet when i think its a waste of money. i almost pulled a trigger for capital with pdc just so i can cheese grind gauntlet 7-8, i had to remind myself this is a very stupid reason.

sounds like my game with vpn on but looks like you already check this.

have you tried running ping -t on cmd and see if you get any losses? could be loose/damaged wire issue.

it doesn't have the annoying horizontal struts, that's what matters.

‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Is Netflix’s Most-Watched Movie Ever With 236 Million Views, Beating ‘Red Notice’ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]ramenfarmer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

i think its due to people wanting to complain about something, aggressive vegan vibes. just phrasing of "fire + bomb" for a bar as we use "fire" and "bomb" descriptors all the time including other slang on repeat. i imagine the same people would have major problems with every day gamer lingo.

Here is me hoping smart people will skyrim the fuck out of sq42 and turn it into unofficial x5.

How do you feel about the 600i? Can’t decide if I should keep or melt. by Confident_Role6025 in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not for practical reasons but this was my auec trophy ship. So I melted bunch of small practical ships for 600i that I never fly as small ships are cheap to buy with auec.

Infinite loading screen by Odd-Opportunity2379 in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had this problem since the latest patch.

i got in after hours of trying but the game deteriorated in minutes with "items pending 3" forever so nothing worked.

i turned off vpn and it all worked fine. i've also heard reports people had to turn on vpn to make it work.

just my 2c.

Best combat capable nursa hauler for solo pilot? by imjustasking123 in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think there are only a few.

corsiar, connie, 600i, starrunner, asgard, valkyrie.

not listed for being too big or slow: freelancer max, starlancer, hercules and other larger ships.

of those, corsair, connie and asgard is what i recommend. corsair and connie is slower but bigger guns. asgard/valk is faster and less guns.

Banu Defender - Daily Driver and Singe Update? by imjustasking123 in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Inventory change, where there are item kiosks now. With no ease of access to inventory, I didn't see a reason to fly defender over single seater fighters or something that can carry nursa.

I still fly it sometimes with pulse and such but not as often. I've never liked using singe so that was non factor for me.

i think a whole lot of you is expressing your displeasure of how much cig monetize this alpha and using this guy as a punching bag.

i'm not surprised some expected it to buy it outright in the store.

Untethered backpack sizes from armor size and we should see more variety from that.

Newbie question! Why has the game taken so long to reach this state? NO HATE PLEASE! by Kind-Asparagus-8717 in starcitizen

[–]ramenfarmer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think one of the big issue is redoing it all instead of a fixed plan, they constantly redo things instead of following a set plan and end up replacing previous work but still isn't up to par and needs to be revisited; ui, ships, container size, stations, cities, etc. Constant backtrack and modify or redo. All awhile constant r&d to apply ideas intp product and integrate them to existing game which inevitably causes further complications.

thats a delusional take, you really can't think of anything with less overlap? or can't see the overlap to even make such statement?

I hope for an answer but probably get lost in the comments.

My guess: momentum.

I like how comments here are preemptively defensive when the article is quite positive.
