SARGE

Random thought just popped into my head for no reason I can think of: if you know someone's name, and the county they own property in, you can visit their county records (many even have publicly accessible websites) and find the exact plots of land tied to their name!

I managed to track down the former property owner of the place I live now to their new house in another state, since they intentionally hid a bunch of issues from the buyer before the sale that ended up costing nearly half the price of the house and the realtors decided to ignore me when I attempted to get in contact.

All I did was look up "[County I knew remembered they were moving to from overheard conversations during the buying process] county property records" and the rest was super straightforward.

It's been a hell of a year, huh.

Nor do you have dozens, to potentially thousands of people all willing to throw themselves into a hail of bullets to keep you out of jail.

I mean, I'm just assuming you don't.

Electronics function better when colder (to a point) so they need to keep the electronics cool.

Instead of large cooling towers and a more enclosed system, a lot are just sucking up cool municipal water, and dumping hot water out wherever they feel like.

I finally picked it up on sale over the holidays, and I gotta say it was super jarring to me to play the (nomad) intro and BAM 6 months later and you're tossed into the middle of things.

Even like a 30 minute montage-like mission where you meet important people the first time, do some light stuff, and get a little more familiar with the mechanics.

I've been enjoying the game so far, and would have liked a more extended intro.

I think it's more like "you can feel your tongue inside your mouth and nowhere is comfortable" kind of thing.

You can always feel your tongue, but you aren't always aware of it.

Forgive them

Nah. Just forget them.

No, it absolutely isn't.

It violated our own laws, international laws, and as far as I'm concerned it's both an act of war, and possibly a literal war crime (please, anyone with more knowledge than me weigh in on that last one) and every other country should treat ours accordingly. We broadcast to the world that it's do what our leader wants or we will take whatever we feel like.

Heck we did that decades ago, but now we aren't even lying about it.

If you have a rule that is interpreted as "you can't ask questions about the rule" or "no questioning the rules" then it's a fucking stupid rule.

(not disagreeing with anyone, simply making observations from experience)

A German zweihander sword weighs around 8lbs, a gallon of milk is around 7. A typical hand and a half sword around 4, and a rapier can be as light as 2lbs easily.

The issue isn't really the weight though in my opinion, it's where the weight is distributed.

A gallon of milk is concentrated in a pretty small package that you can hold close to your own center of gravity.

A sword is long and it's weight, by design, is usually not close to the hilt of the blade. I'm not 100% sure on historic examples, but I try to keep the weight centered around 1/3 up the length of the blade on ones I make.

Practical upshot is that a lighter sword will flop around and stab people easier than a gallon of milk is dropped due to weight.

If you want a child to be accidentally dangerous, give them a sword. If you want them to be dangerous on purpose, give them a fixed blade knife under 7in.

Sprinkle some on your pancakes, it's quite sweet!

Please don't use 3d printed parts in food preparation.

You already have enough microplastics in your brains, and the layer lines are bacterial breeding grounds. (which are less of a concern if you only use it once or twice but is still relevant)

Make sure you get a good coat of leaded paint to make sure none of that is a problem.
