i just think the idea of spreading out a Bathesda RPG over an entire galaxy was flawed even if it had seamless planet landing from the beginning. constantly flying between solar systems for different quests, often in the same quest, is just tedious as hell even if it was seamless.

In order for it to work they need to make the spaceflight/combat/space itself more compelling and worthwhile. In Elder Scrolls and Fallout, exploration between quests is fun because there are chance encounters, side quests, unmarked dungeons, easter eggs, great scenery, etc. There was almost none of that in Starfield, although you could tell they tried to inject some.

At least once more, miss swann, as always.

Yeah it’s risky talking to a prospective employer, who know that you’re currently employed, and telling them you can start immediately.

i guess if you wanted to be a dick you could just not tell your current employer you’re leaving until the very last day of two weeks before starting a new job. But that gets you nothing, it’s just spiteful.

well yeah they are able to sell SUVs an higher margins because they have conviced us that’s what we want. If we wanted smaller efficient cars they could sell those at higher margins instead. supply and demand, except they are artificially creating the demand.

enemy of a fascist, count me in.

i think it’s more like the US populace is deeply brainwashed by Truck and SUV marketing. If we (collectively) wanted efficient vehicles and purchased based on that, that’s what they’d make. But they make sure that’s NOT what we want.

There is at least one in the metro area but it’s very far from where I am. I have been to Freddy’s in other cities though, pretty good.

steak n shake is one of the things i really miss after moving to the DC area. other fancy burger places like five guys held me over for a while, but they don’t hit like steak n shake.

okay so a few times a year your meal isn’t exactly when you want to eat. or you can’t eat exactly what you want to eat.

i’ll take that over having to go to a gas station weekly to fill up and pay $50 for the privilege.

only the 20%-80% range is usable. Your 300mi+ range just turned into 180mi of usable range.

but at the same time, charging 20%-80% is A LOT faster than charging 0-100%. a road trip plan optimized for time almost never plans charge stops above 80% for that reason. it’s better to stay in that charging sweet spot.

Also you do (or should) start trips at 100% charge.

call your dealer and ask if you can cancel the service plan for a prorated refund.

if you get into an accident on a road trip you’re fucked regardless of what car you have.

i usually eat on the road anyway. with gas cars i’d go through a drive through after the gas station.

a 20 min EV charge is enough time to get food and eat on the road.

also charging 10-50% is a LOT faster than charging 50-90%.

EVs still use brake pads. lol

not really. almost all EV breaking is regen, unless you drive like shit.

they might as well just cut to the chase and turn 2k into a subscription service.

i think it’s usually licensing issues, especially music. Or it could just be to force anyone interested in NBA 2k to buy the newer versions.

most people have definitely not stopped going to mcdonalds. that’s what i’m talking about.

not that it’s much of an improvement but there is Discord.

still faster than launching a new satellite
