Hopefully this is the right place to ask, I'm not active on any other sites so this is the only place I could think of. I'm in Australia and I haven't kept up with any promotions' wrestling apart from the odd PPV since maybe the Ruthless Aggression era. The last thing I watched was Lucha Underground, which I had to torrent.

I want to show my partner some old PPVs (specifically Survivor Series 2002 and Royal Rumble 2005 for now), as far as I can tell the WWE Network has been discontinued and it tells me everything will be on Netflix now, but it's not clear if that's all of the archives or just new stuff. Searching online tells me Raw is possibly on Netflix, and they say in this FAQ that "select countries" get "select content" which tells me fuckin nothing. Other sites don't mention Netflix at all but say there's stuff on Peacock, Binge, Foxtel Now, or Kayo, none of which I've ever used and none of which are specific about what they offer.

Help? I'm willing to pay or pirate, I don't care as long as the quality is watchable. I don't have any streaming service accounts and don't want to have to sign up for them just to see what they're exactly offering.

“Let’s hope Bloodborne never reaches the dirty sand shores of PC as well,” reads one bright response to the rumor on Icon-Era. “Please no Bloodborne or Astro Bot [on PC],” wrote another.

You know what'll get us more games like Bloodborne? Giving an entirely new market of people a chance to show that there's money to be made there. Elden Ring exploded in popularity, it was one of the best selling games of all time, everybody everywhere was talking about it and it got a lot of people into Fromsoft games. You don't think some of that popularity will carry over to the Bloodborne rerelease fans (and even non-fans) have been begging for for years?

It's only checkmate if he's currently in check and has no legal moves afaik.

I've had Star (Adoring Fan) in my music rotation for years, but damn these are bangers.

I've only played the Switch games in recent memory, and they're all pretty hard to lose. I did play older games at release, but stopped at White. I guess I could say that was the hardest because I hated it so much that it put me off the series altogether for a decade.

The only battles I lost in Scarlet were the electric gym, which I went to first when I assumed the game would scale based on badge count and I was using an all-bird team, and the first battle in Blueberry which I tried to win with only a Minccino & Hoppip (level 100 and fully EV trained and everything, but still weak as hell).

Sword and Shield were both also dead easy, and apart from the enormous spike at the end of Shining Pearl that was too - that was more tedious than difficult though. Having a 30-level difference between the highest wild encounters and the E4 remakes didn't make it harder, it just meant I had to waste a month getting ready. The rematches themselves were satisfying enough.

If you're asking because you want to get one for a child or something, I'd probably go with Sword.

Musk has only fanned the flames of suspicion by not explicitly denying those claims

Now why could that be, I wonder?

all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath.

I'd have given him the benefit of the doubt a decade ago, but how clear does he have to make himself? We've been watching him get more and more overt for years at this point.

“40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan, and it was actually, before the World Trade Center, was the tallest—and then, when they built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second-tallest. And now it’s the tallest.”

Dang, someone's scared of the dark

I don't need an article reporting on something that might happen, I'll just wait for the one reporting on the thing once it's happened. That's where the juicy info will be.

Who cares, fuck Bannon. People worth listening to say it too, let's talk about them and not give Bannon attention.

As soon as Musk bought it I reactivated my long-dormant account so that I could delete it properly, I can't understand why so many people are using X.

You're all patrons of the nazi bar, only in this case the nazis bought the bar. Twitter is dead. Migrate to somewhere else like you probably have multiple times before if you've been on the Internet for any amount of time.

 

I took a break to 100% Rise a couple of years back, but this was the hard one. Bring on Wilds!

 

For the first time I’ve put a tiny bit of effort into making a building look like… something. It ships in nitrogen, iron & copper ingots and alclad sheets, then ships out cooling systems and motors - I was making the motors for the cooling device alternate recipe anyway, so I figured I’d export half of them at the same time considering they’ll be going to the same place for the turbo motors & thermal propulsion rockets.

Usually I drop a bunch of foundations, spread out machines and clip conveyors through each other all over the place, put up some walls and never bother to light it, paint it or stick a ceiling on. This time I followed advice I’ve seen on this community and in Excrubulent’s videos. I’ve got blocks of machines which actually have space around them, conveyors are up on the ceilings & out of the way, and I’ve built upwards. I don’t have any better photos because I’m not on my gaming PC and this is just what I’d sent to a friend, but there you go.

If I were to redo it I’d have some changes to make to the way I connect the train platforms (like why the hell did I build it all the way over there instead of integrating the station into the ground floor?), and I’d have a dedicated conduit on one side of the building for sending items/power cables up and down rather than having lifts on either side of the main factory floor, but that’s what learning is all about. I like having 1-2 items produced per floor and shipping things up as needed, then dropping the final product from the top back down to the train.

I just have a couple of buildings left for Phase 4 (2 more project parts, but all of the components are produced in other factories and the only raw material I’ll need to process is the copper for the Nuclear Pasta, everything else can be achieved in 5 machines total). I was thinking in Phase 5 it’d be cool to build upwards like this then stick a drone platform on the roof for exports. I dunno.

Bonus pic from the train station you can see in the background:

 

I'm looking for a mod that'll let me set up a master list of work bills that can be done by multiple pawns across multiple workstations without having to edit the bills list of each one. Does this exist?

I currently use a mod (one of Dub's I want to say?) that can clone and link bills, but you still have to set up each workbench individually and remember to link anything new you add so it still gets tedious in a large colony. Something used to do this iirc, possibly Fluffy's Colony Manager, but I'm sure it didn't in the previous verstion or two and I've only started getting into 1.5 in the last week so I'm not sure if anything new has popped up.

Alternatively, if this isn't already a thing and anyone's up for making it I'd be happy to throw some money your way.

Thanks.
