There are some in the systems that the artifact missions take you on, so they will pop up as objectives when you enter the system or land on a planet. Or probably when I scan planets. Not sure which. I always just consider them happy little accidents. But always nice when that happens because on my current run I found three like that, which made it a bit quicker than running back to Vlad for those.

Thanks because as I lay in bed this would be nightmare fuel not knowing what I'm looking at.

Cardinals are looking well coached. In a year everyone expected them to tank. They just lack the players other teams have, but they compete.

I don't even like taking a call or listening to other people take a call in the same room as I am. I always leave the room for privacy. In a home environment at least, could deal with it in a work environment. So I really don't get it for those that do it in public.

I saw this image issue earlier, not even realizing it was a Boost issue.

I have a ton of hours in the game and didn't even realize it was always online. That is how little issues it caused for me. But it is definitely good for this to happen.

Having the Star Wars license is what saved the company.

New copypasta just dropped.

I'm with you that I don't have an issue with them not being a big fight. That would slow down an already slow process if you try to get them all before moving to another NG+. I think one thing that would have helped is having Vlad give more than one at a time. Going back and forth constantly when that is all you're doing before moving on makes it feel tedious for sure. Though probably less so for me than many gamers.

I wouldn't even just binge doing those if we took something with us on each Unity jump. At least credits if nothing else. I'd mix in more stuff, but right now that feels like a waste until I finally get to a point where I just want to play through it all and no longer go through the unity.

I'll speak on one from personal experience. I have been on a med most of the last 20 or so years for a chronic illness. I believe the drug hit the market in 1997 and as of 2018 was still making the company 1.7 billion dollars a year. That 1.7 was actually 44% lower than in 2017. Looking briefly now it is finally taking in less than 1 billion a year, but still 800 million. It isn't dropping in revenue because they lowered the price. It is because other meds have been introduced so they have a lot more competition.

There was even an event where press asked the CEO about having made back their development costs and then some, which he agreed they had, would they then lower the price? He said there was no reason to lower the price as it was a huge revenue source for them.

Over 20 years later the costs for it continued to climb rather than lower. Costs for it estimated at 10k per patient in 1997 and around 70k now per year.

Not someone I worked with or really knew, so doesn't really fit this overall question. But I used to come across a man that your post reminded me of. He worked at a fast food place. Probably in his 40's. Looked like he had been through some stuff in life. But just always so damn nice, polite and friendly. It was beyond any service I've had through a drive thru. After a couple times I told him how awesome I thought he and his attitude and service were. And he lit up and said life is what you make of it my friend. Turned out it was just a second job for him to make a little extra money, but he sure acted like it was the best job in the world and it was his job to be pleasant to everyone.
