- Comment on Oblivion leveling guides be like: 2 days ago:
Weakness to Magic stacks exponentially with itself when it comes from 2 different spells.
For example, lets say you have 2 spells with Weakness to Magic 100% for 6 seconds: Spell 1, and Spell 2.
Spell 1: target becomes 100% weak to magic
Spell 2: target becomes 2100% = 200% weak to magic recast Spell 1: target becomes 2200% = 400% weak to magic recast Spell 2: target becomes 2*400% = 800% weak to magicAnd so on. After a few stacks of that debuff, and you can 1-hit-kill any foe with a spell that deals damage.
Weakness to Magic also works on the player character and it will amplify the effect of buffs. Stacking it before casting your buff spells lets you walk around with millions of health, stamina, and mana for short periods of time.
- Comment on What is lunch like in exclusive private schools for rich kids? 3 days ago:
the school’s owner siphons off all the resources, leaving very little for the teachers, staff, and students to utilize.
2 guys cook cafeteria fare for the whole school - they don’t have time to get fancy. they want to make good food, even though they don’t get paid very well, but the ingredients they’re given are mid shelf cans of things purchased from bulk warehouse stores like Costco or Sam’s Club or whatever the local equivalent is. it tastes decent and checks all the nutritional boxes, but is less exciting than food you can make at home or buy from a restaurant.
- Comment on Intel in early talks to add AMD as foundry customer 4 days ago:
They’re still talking about doing it if they can’t raise enough money to make it through the next R&D cycle. The deals with Nvidia and USA’s federal government gets them about half way there.

if the
peoplehuman livestock who need medical treatment to live are allowed to die, then the babies of the survivors will be cheaper to maintain because they’ll need less medical treatment - Comment on US Department of Homeland Security Data Hub Exposed Sensitive Intel to Thousands of Unauthorized Users 2 weeks ago:
The memo about the HSIN-Intel breach specifically mentions, for instance, a report discussing “protests relating to a police training facility in Atlanta”—likely the Stop Cop City protests opposing the creation of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center—noting that it focused on “media praising actions like throwing stones, fireworks and Molotov cocktails at police.”
What medias are throwing molotovs at cops, and why are the cops praising them for it?

- Comment on GMO new fruit trees 2 months ago:
Well, that and the companies doing it are also a litigious scourge on traditional farmers, and are responsible for causing cancer in conventional farm workers, and are suspected to be the ones responsible for the increase in food allergies.
A hammer is just a tool. They can be used to do a lot of good, potentially. But, if in practice the only thing that hammers ever really got used for is assaulting people, then it might be reasonable for people to give hammers & their manufacturers a bit of side eye.
- Comment on Powell confirms that the Fed would have cut by now were it not for tariffs 2 months ago:
That reasoning is sus.
The tariffs directly cause prices to go up. The inflation-like effect isn’t caused by too-rapid growth of currency supply, so lowering the growth rate & decoupling it from productivity growth risks stagflation.
- Comment on Economcial, Billionaires are the biggest threat to the free market 4 months ago:
When billionaires use those agglomerations of capital to manipulate markets and engage in other types of anti-competitive practices, it turns a free market into a captured market.
Anti-monopoly regulation & enforcement is required to maintain a market’s freedom.
- Comment on Pakistan's Chinese-made jet brought down two Indian fighter aircraft, US officials say 4 months ago:
Given the ham-handedness of Indian propagandists in English-speaking social media, if their pilots are of a similar quality, then it may have just been a skill issue rather than a demonstration of the quality of the hardware.

This.
Also, look at the attic, check for roof leaks and adequate ventilation. Make sure your soffit vents aren’t clogged, and the soffit baffles and ridge vent have actually been installed properly.

Aviassembly.
Its fun in the way that building airplanes in KSP is fun. The game is small, and the physics are simple, but for $10 its a good value.
- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 5 months ago:
In PlanetSide, there’s just one big map that never resets.
The team I played with would try to bring the front line to a bridge before logging off for the night. Bridges were notoriously difficult to cross, so you could count on no major territorial changes happening while you sleep. The zerg was content to snipe across the bridge all night, and when organized Ops resumed the next day, the bridge would simply be bypassed by mass airlift.

PlanetSide 1, the MMOFPS that was the former record holder of “Most players in an online FPS battle,” which was eventually surpassed by PlanetSide 2.
In its heyday it was a fascinating sociology study.
During EU prime time, players would self-organize into squads of about 10 players. They would apply light pressure to the entire map simultaneously. Territorial gains would be made by attacking undefended bases.
During USA prime time, players would self-organize into platoons of about 30 players. They would press a few strategic locations with medium force. Territorial gains came from fixing operations (using a small force in an easy to defend location to keep a large population of opponents busy) and local numeric superiority at lightly defended bases.
During Chinese prime time, players would group up into a singular mass. Everyone just ran face first into the meatgrinder. No territorial gains were made.

IP law itself is a band-aid over capitalism’s disincentivizing of humanity’s innate tendency toward ingenuity, innovation, and iteration
public domain is the default, its IP law and the artificial scarcity it creates which is useful to the capitalists
