  • “I don’t really believe the medium is the message, but let me show you how tone deaf I am by being a populist on Twitter.”

  • Conversely, the average FOSS programmer has no idea how to either design for simplicity or document for the novice.

  • Just from the summary, I’m nearly certain this would be better as a web article.

  • Guess I was hallucinating when I asked it to turn a rambling, amateurishly written game account into a saga in the style of heroic poetry…

    and it got it. About 85%, with only a few clunkers that needed edits.

  • This all sounds great, but everyone should keep in mind that we have NO way of verifying that the OP does not work for an intelligence agency.

  • Notice OP said they were poor.

  • Windows have a significant negative effect on aerodynamics at higher speeds. And of course it’s also very noisy.

  • I’m about 600 miles into my IONIQ 5 XRT. I didn’t want the XRT but by the time I got to the dealer after their last pre-Krasnov-Tariffs delivery, the IONIQ 5 Limited had already sold and what I now have was my only option.

    I’m pretty happy with everything but the color, which is black. Also my inability to figure out how to tell the car “PLEASE VENT OUTSIDE AIR IN WITHOUT CONDITIONING IT IN ANY WAY.” Anyone got insight there? I’ve got at least another month of decent weather that doesn’t need to tax the batteries.

    Very excited that my solar installer, who is about to put batteries in at the house to back up and enable grid-free usage of last year’s solar panels, says they can install a generator transfer switch that I’ll be able to use with the IONIQ’s bi-directional charging! Not a huge win for now, but the car’s battery is as big as the $35k worth of batteries I’m about to add to the house.

    Ultimately I’ll sell the IONIQ once I can take delivery of my Telo Truck, and given the tariff-raffery going on here in the US, I expect I’ll be able to sell the XRT used for as much as I bought it for.

  • Please describe a “battle belt setup.” Thanks!

  • Depends if it was built originally as a gas fireplace. If it was converted from a wood burning fireplace to gas, it can be converted back.

    You could also remove it completely and turn the space into a secret storage room!

  • Supply prices will rise if only because more people will be gardening out of need.

  • Of all the Hex, Q put me off the most. Totally uninterested.

  • Similarly, I first had a romantic relationship with Aoi, and when she declared her love instantly I thought that was going a little too fast and was not so head over heels back at her. She dumped me right away.

    Going on 4 of the same repeat years with Eleanor though!

  • In short: No. Most infested, Corpus, Techrot have no armor at all.

    Second, armor scaling was radically changed a few months ago. Armor no longer scales infinitely for enemies and is hard capped for all of them at I think 2460? I forget the number.

    This is a big enough change that you don’t actually need to 100% armor strip any more. Used to be enemies could have 12,000 armor or more at high level due to infinite scaling, so the diff between 99% strip and 100% was something like 98% damage reduction vs. 0% damage reduction. But this is no longer true.

    In any case my screen cap is about what is supposedly a big UI error that shows up on iOS and PS.

  • Everything he does makes sense if he’s a Russian asset intent on destroying the US.

  • Is this when doing it on Steel Path Ultra Hard Sekrit Mode?

    Because otherwise it’s not hard. Just tedious.

    Some days, it seems like half of Tenno want a frame with…

    Thermal Sunder, Nourish, Roar, and Xata’s Whisper.

    With Emerald Shards as a passive.

    🙄

  • I don't know how that test proves anything, as the question is "Are enemies resistant to EVERYTHING that they aren't weak to?"

  • All faction listings look the same, with different details of course.

  • Reducing armor doesn’t mean much if the enemydoesn’t have armor to begin with.

    Does anyone else see this?

    I’m getting into some heated discussions because no one else believes this info. And in fact, the wiki itself doesn’t match this info on the Damage page.

    People seem to think that Corrosive is the be all end all of damage now, and if this is true, it’s just not right.

    Because according to my codex, every faction is now resistant to everything they aren’t weak to.

    Frequent Riven Sellers: Have things slowed down for you?

    For the past two plus weeks, I’ve noticed that sales of rivens of all types—great, good, average—have slowed WAAAY down.

    Now I’m not selling any hugely in demand GRolls, but some of my stuff is quite good. Like a Sun & Moon riven with CC, SC, Attack Speed.

    Anyone else seeing sales dry up? I’m suspicious that the market is holding its breath for 1999’s release.

    V2H in the US??

    I think I've done my research, but damn if I can find what I'm looking for in the US. Even talked to my installer, who had nothing.

    From what I can tell, my sole option for V2H, using the vehicle's batteries to back up the house, is the Ford Lightning. Maybe the Mach-E?

    In fact, what I'd actually like is a CAR. Not a crossover, not a SUV. An actual CAR.

    • The Lightning is WAAAY too much "car" for me.
    • Best I can tell, Polestar is only "testing" V2anything.
    • Kia/Hyundai only has V2L.
    • Volkswagen ID4? I'm unclear.
    • Mini has nothing.
    • Leaf has something, but leaf is too little for being useful in terms of KwH.

    Again, I'm in the US. And I already have an Enphase solar install, so I can't totally switch to some other sort of turnkey soup to nuts solution. I don't have batteries for the house, and want a vehicle that can be that as well as a mode of transport.

    I'm also not an electrical engineer, so what that guy in this forum who built his own rack of components to make V2H

    Entrati Lab tile set predictions!

    Don’t expect this to happen, but Cephalon Suda should have such a hard-on for Albrect’s lab that the Necralisk would be lousy with Synoid assault teams trying to figure out how to get in. If they DO get in, it will be our task to keep them from “investigating” the lab with Synoid Heliocors.

    The labs look big, and there will be a lot to explore. Almost certainly, things to repair as well.

    Instead of Encrypted Journal Fragments or Thousand Year Fish, we’ll have to find Lost Floppy Disks.

    Instead of Corrupted Holokeys, we’ll have to find Serial to VGA Connectors.

    Rather than hunting for Void Plumes, we must have Albrecht’s Nice Parker Pen. We only need one, but it has a 99.98% drop rate on Rotation C.

    Dropping on Rotation C with a heartbreaking 0.02% chance: the Legendary CD-ROM Reader upgrade.

    Failing a mission will result in the Blue Screen of Void. Available on all platforms!

    Somehow it didn’t make the cut-off for the update, but I’m sure DE has a blade and whip skin featuring a

    International, LGBTQIAP+ friendly clan seeks social Tenno of any rank

    We became the Void Orphans because we wanted an emphasis on fun, learning, and social interaction. We don’t recruit randomly, preferring to know that a new member will fit our vibe.

    That vibe is friendly, helpful, social, and tolerant of all kinds of people who are also tolerant. (If you’re the sort of person who thinks it’s OK to use “That’s gay” pejoratively, move along. Racists can fuck right off. )We are an eclectic bunch of men and women from six+ different countries and don’t have time for racists or the intolerant. LGBTQBP welcome! Also, the clan Elder named his rail jack the Starry Plow and if you know what that refers to without looking it up, you’re definitely our kind of people.

    While the core of the clan is MR21+ all the way to Legendary 3, we specifically seek lower MR players looking for some guidance and assistance in this massively complex game. We’re happy to point you on the right road to farming, getting frames, modding, whatever. And while there’s a definite cultu

    Covert Bond is TERRIBLE on the very builds it should be best for

    Covert Bond should be for stealth frames, right?

    Yeah, don’t do that.

    Covert Bond makes sentinels feel invincible and they go ham all the time it is active. This alerts enemies right in the middle of your stealth mission. Even putting Hush et al on the sentinel won’t help because sentinel weapons are too weak to kill in one shot.

    Magnetize no longer kills pilots before they hit the ground

    I’ve used Mag probably a half a dozen times to unlock versions of this riven, and today, with 25 minutes of mission and about 8 Dargyns spawned, it did not work even once. Typically I get at least 75% success rate per time I get Magnetize around a flying pilot/ This time, every single pilot fell out of the magnetize bubble still screaming.

    Didn’t notice this in any patch notes, but then I didn’t read it that closely.

    Guess I’ll try the Tentacle Swarm trick, but that’s a LOT less common to be able to set up. On the plus side, the Hydroid rework suggests that once a pilot is in the tentacles, they WILL die off the ground. That was not a sure thing before.
