Gosh, this is almost my experience directly. Somehow managed to convince the developer of the Thieves World MUD that I, a young teenager, would love to program & contribute for the game. Then he said "do you know linux", to which I did not, and that's the day that I started to learn. That MUD experience got me my first real job (I showed my boss-to-be my CVS checkins), and some 30 years later, I'm still writing low-level C++ professionally.

I'm exceedingly loving the combat design in Dawntrail, so I guess they took some good lessons from EW. That said, I do think CoD P2 is a bit too difficult for what they were aiming for. Two phases of P1 difficulty (mostly personal responsibility & quick reactions) or even very slightly harder, would be absolutely perfect for PF.

I guess I'm still not understanding it. Time to pour over the picture some more, see if we can't figure it out.

I'm confused. Haven't error correction codes like this been around since the 60s?

I'm pretty excited to see the Hildi plot for these patches to play out. There's a lot of potential gold in this setup!

Back in August '22, I weighed about 270 lbs @ 6'0 (122.5 kg, 183 cm). I realized this was dangerously unhealthy so I asked my doctor if there was any drug options for helping me change habits. As my insurance didn't cover weight loss, the doc opted for Phentermine. It drastically cut my food cravings and with exercise I've been losing weight steadily since. Down to 215 lbs now and the physical benefits are great: no more constant GIRD, can bend over without discomfort, etc.

It is funny though, just finally barely breaking the obese barrier (30 bmi) and people say "and you still want to lose more weight??" My goal is 180.

Edit: As an aside, how fucked is it that insurance companies don't cover weight loss; wouldn't covering it reduce their costs over time?

Did that dragoon Stardiver Titan? Also, that last clip really brings back the PTSD of ARR; additionally, I wonder how the voices are to be handled.

Starsector is amazing, even though buying it on the website made me wonder if the storefront was made in the 90s.

If you'd like exact rates, you can use belts of various speeds & smart splitters, eg.:

Need 300, so take a higher belt (eg one of the 455) and smart split off into a mk3 belt (270), and overflow the rest. You should now have a full mk3 270 belt and 185 remaining (overflowed). From that you can smart split into a mk1 (60), and split it in two (30, 30). Take one of those and merge it with the 270 from before and you've now got 300, with 125+30 remaining for more siphoning off. Basically, 300=270+60/2.

Similarly, you could do 2000=1200+780+60/3. The rest is left as an exercise to the reader.

I'm a little confused on the exact request here. Do you have those pictured lane rates now, and need to combine/ split them into the ratios above (2000, 300, e.t.c)?

I imagine that running a butt ton of expert roulettes will yield a lot of excess items that you can turn in (as well as tomes). Depending upon your job, you could probably blitz through most SB & SHB dungeons pretty quickly too for a good rate of return.

A good article! I often find myself rewriting my code 2-3 times fresh, before it rests in its final state. Also affords you the ability to share/ migrate tests, etc.
