Both weapons were at zero, and I hit a public event flag. I found it weird that the ammo given is greater than what’s actually in the weapon. Also note that I have my sidearm out, so the total there is both magazine + reserves. Still, the numbers don’t match. Maybe an odd quirk/bug or whatever.

Good call.

Totally. Whole businesses have sprung up for running and monetizing them. Check into Ghost, WordPress and WooCommerce, Memberful. Lots of other options.

I mean. I’m generally an app snob and prefer them most of the time. But we also can just use the website. Lots of people visit YouTube simply in a browser on mobile, without the app on any platform.

People saying “blog” when they mean post. You did not write a new blog on your blog, you wrote a new post on your blog.

You do not drive your car on the car. You drive your car on the road.

Not altering reality. Stating facts. Which, if you recall, don’t care about your feelings.

People are into vinyl and tube TVs again. Barnes & Noble just opened a huge branch in a hot (meaning: expensive) neighborhood here in Chicago. I guess people like physical things again.

I think the main idea is to look at some hashtags to find people to follow, then eventually wean off those hashtags if you want.

Another key detail is that you can’t read it all. Not hashtags, not people. You’ll go nuts if you try. It’s about following people who are interesting, opening the app every once in a while to check in, then going on with your day.

Damnit you beat me to it

One tip would be to use email addresses that you actually check for mission critical accounts.

Probably some mix of: it was an unknown and unregulated industry when domains were invented, the idea of ‘property’ doesn’t really work like that IRL (the bank or local government can take your house for myriad reasons), and people aren’t motivated enough to make any significant changes.

These days, I don’t remember the last registrar I’ve seen that does not provide at least some kind of basic hosting. Maybe they want to grow like all businesses, maybe just being a registrar doesn’t keep the lights on anymore. Not sure, but it definitely seems to be the thing most, if not all, do now.

I have a few hundred feeds across topics that I’ve collected over the years, but I’m gonna guess you don’t want to see my entire OPML. Want to share some topics you’re into? That should help recommendations a lot

Also, a general tip: Most decent feed readers can sniff out a feed if you paste a website into their search box. Next time you’re surfing the regular web and find a site you like, try tossing it into your reader to follow it from then on

I poked around with Matrix a bit this week but I’m confused as to how it’s being touted as a replacement for Discord. TBC, I’ve been on Mastodon since 2019 and absolutely want these people-powered alternatives to succeed.

I’m not even talking about the onboarding part, I mean the actual function of the app. With Discord you join a community (server, whatever) and there are a bunch of separate channels, usually separated by topics. I joined a few Matrix servers and they all seem to be one single channel; just one big ol’ scrolling chat where everyone is talking about everything.

Unless I’m missing something, I don’t understand how this will work at all for Discord users looking to jump ship.

Not an arc specific exotic but Sanguine Alchemy is a damage boosting chest. While in any rift you get I believe a 50% damage boost to all weapons that match your super element. Kills pause your rift’s timer for 5 seconds (doesn’t work on Well). It’s a very common swap exotic for high damage rotations. Some people just leave it on for a mission or encounter.

I don’t have a definitive source, but I’ve heard that was intentional. WB said they were gonna do it with or without the Wachowskis. So they agreed to do it and torpedoed it so WB would stop trying to mess with the franchise.

This is a pillar of pride for us. We are literally creating jobs 😆

Got this YouTuber from a glaive enjoying friend. Apparently they’re big glaive fans and do solo GM stuff. Latest video is “triple glaive solo GM,” lol!

Easy fix: Every glaive melee kill results in a Michael Bay explosion. Not an ignition, just the pyrotechnics.
