I’m late to the party but I’ll still share. To answer your first question, yes this is how it happens.

My experience was similar, I think it also has to do with you unlocking upgrades for the guns along with the OCs, I’ve read someone’s suggestion for grey beards to try a Haz 4 or 5 without all of the upgrades and OCs to try and remember what it was like starting out. I need to try that at some point.

The other thing I’ll add is that I was just in that same comfort level and recently jumped to pretty much all Haz 5 unless I’m trying a new OC. Still dying a little more than I’d like so I wouldn’t say it’s cozy yet but Haz 4 started feeling too easy and I’m going for the challenge right now.

If you’re going to come at me with a link about Ukraine, please make sure it’s from a website that’s not run by this guy:

Ben Aris: There’s a narrative in the mainstream media about, you know, "Stand with Ukraine and never report the negative stuff, only report the positive stuff." But people I deal with, professional investors in particular, they're interested in what's actually going on because they've got money in the game in the form of investments and assets.

I don’t think the negative stuff shouldn’t be reported but fuck him and his professional investor friends.

BTW: Ben Aris has controlling interest in the company that owns the link you shared and got his start in journalism in Moscow.

Where are you reading that is a radar for ICBMs? The article just says a Krasukha radar jammer is reported to be there. Reading the Wikipedia article for these systems indicate that they can jam the radar for UAVs and drones. Since Ukraine has been using drones heavily, I can see why they would attack. I’m not saying that it doesn’t work against ballistic missiles but it’s seems like they have a lot of other applications to Russia’s war effort.

I haven’t played any From Software so my opinion is invalid but I’m with you, when Elden Ring came out and new players started on that game, it seemed that the common response to them was “git gud”.

Edit: having now read the article, it basically says the same thing as my post along with the fact that they don’t plan to make it easier.

I think these types of conversations are important for men and women alike. I’m a straight white man who is comfortable sharing his emotions with my partner, friends, and co workers. I have a bad habit of putting others and their needs before myself but I also make sure I take care of/pamper myself. When someone challenges me, especially to physical confrontation or some other potentially dangerous behavior, I can easily decline and look “weak”, I’ve never been in a fist fight in my life and I’m happy about that. In my mind and the way I was raised (in WV of all places) these are strong masculine traits: be open and honest with people around you, take care of others and yourself, and don’t do anything overly dangerous just to look tough or more important than you are.

The thing is, all of these a strong qualities that I want in the people I associate with, men and women. There are toxic behaviors on every part of the gender spectrum, the trick is recognizing them, not playing into them yourself, and helping family and friends through open dialogues not meant to shame or embarrass but real conversation.

My post is kind of rambling and I apologize for that but I wanted to put this out there because I saw a few comments about how some women and certain behaviors, like protecting a loved one from a mugger, can perpetuate toxicity. And to that I say, if there are people like that in your orbit, you either need to cut them out or if you love them and want them around, you need to have a conversation with them about their toxic behavior.

I didn’t think there was much to it but I didn’t understand how it attacks Dotty, that makes a lot more sense. That’s also why I mentioned it, because I figured someone would be able to explain it. Thanks!!

I like it. I think the drillevator missions are a change from the other mission types. Looking for the crystals is kind of annoying, but it always seems to cause the team to separate and that can lead to more danger. I think the drillevator phase should have more bugs that can attack from a distance to make it more intense, that part always seems to be pretty easy except for the very first time when we didn’t have enough enough ammo. I like the Core stone event and the unique enemy types. It feels like the Ommeran Heartstone missions are tougher on haz 5, not a complaint, I just don’t totally understand the phase where it turns red and small bubbles of stone pop up. I like that you can play previous seasons, I only started at the beginning of last season. I haven’t gotten to play around with the new overclocks yet. Overall I can’t really complain.

It’s already clean. https://apnews.com/article/stonehenge-vandalism-paint-climate-protest-summer-solstice-f93506fdd75d9b5b8be1725f11ad8b33

Nice! I’m a trim carpenter and I work in historic preservation. I’m a project manager now but I worked my way up from laborer.

Considering Neanderthals never lived in the US I don’t know what this nutball is on about.

The Brits still use stone as unit of measurement for weight. I get bashing us here in the US for not using metric but at least we’re rigid in our stupid system. The Brits seem to be a certain kind of special when it comes to units of measurement, using whatever system they feel like depending on the circumstance.

The one you made looks excellent, I cook them quite a bit but I usually just put cheese inside. If I’m filling it with veggies or chicken, I always cook that stuff first.

If you try and go low and slow, you’re going to end up with a hard crackly tortilla, cooking quick keeps it chewy and crisp on the outside.

On my electric stove, the dials go from 1-10 and I find that for my stove, preheating my cast iron pan with the burner on 4 keeps it from burning but cooks it pretty quick.
