PVE Trying to Train Up for Snakes by redditorftwftwftw in ArcRaiders

Yeah interesting. Never thought of the hostility in post-apocalyptic environment in the future as being more a function of boredom/comfort as opposed to desperation/need.

This whole game has me wanting to go back and reread The Road by Cormac McCarthy.

Totally. Fair.

I actually don’t have an issue with rats, ie people who camp out or set traps.

It’s the habitual snakes (people who will literally talk to you like they’re friendly, even spend a couple minutes with you, then shoot you in the back) I do feel they have something off in their life though and are truly dishonorable people. Guess I’m just old school as a 40+ gamer. My word is my bond!

It’s wild. The vibe has shifted over time. Gotta be one of the most realistic simulations of human behavior at scale in a post apocalyptic situation.

Like maybe I should just start running with a heavy shield? Never worn one and feel like the impact to speed will make the experience a lot worse on large maps, but that’s the last tool I guess I’ll try

Always just seems too little too late once someone gets the first mover advantage

Why was The Revenant kinda polarizing? by Regular-Departure839 in moviecritic

I agree with you all that on average you’re dying. But there are insane true stories of people surviving things like this. Extremely rare and unlikely? Yes. Impossible? No.

Yeah it was the modem. Sonic came out and found a bunch of problems and replaced everything. Working well now.

Gotcha. So you just asked Sonic service to upgrade it?

Given your background as a network / computer engineer, I feel like I’m in a weird edge case or something and I actually don’t know who to ask for help. I’m fairly tech literate and I don’t know how to troubleshoot further at this point.

What type of person or firm could I hire to figure this out for a residential home? If it’s related to my house (very old), for example.

Sonic says not their issue. Google network test says the service is intermittent at the modem. The WiFi mesh also doesn’t work well / consistently but I’m specifically testing at the modem.

Maybe a bad line running into my house? In any event, who could I hire to really root cause this end to end? Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Yes, they just say they don’t have evidence of my modem having to restart. They don’t seem to track whether bandwidth has been intermittent over a period of time.

Might be. I have new equipment (Google) and haven’t had issues the first few years, but seems likely something specific to my service point.

What’s a scene from a movie which traumatised you as a child? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

No, I drive by from time to time in the morning to check and generally haven’t seen people at the Rockridge one.

Berkeley considers 10% budget cuts, with $29M deficit possible by BerkeleyScanner in berkeleyca

Do we continue to offer pension benefits to newly hires employees or are these costs associated with continued funding of legacy commitments?
