and 3 days off work

its cost my family roughly $2000 for us to all get the flu

disgusting indeed just how much do you think you're costing your benevolent enployers by having the gall to get sick think of the job creators please

when I think of the flu I always think of how much fun I'll have
JaPAN
im having so much fun staring at the wall wishing the pain would stop
Anno
>>813557 Well you know, no one would ever get so sick they can't function enough to work. So any prolonged sick break must obviously be them shirking responsibilities to have fun and party.
>>813582 Heya Rika. Sorry for being absent again last night. Something this week's just been hitting me with total fatigue in the late evenings and it's been just so hard to not nod off.
>>813587 I'm dog-sitting for my parents while they're overseas. he's only a little pup but he's keeping me busy We didn't really grow up with any animals so all of this is pretty new to me.
>>813588 Marsh has been better. And he will be Even Better Still in the future.
>>813650 yea, same actually. Work put me on a day shift about two months ago and it was a weird trandition but everythings looking up. Still can't get over that melbourne morning/evening traffic. good that things managable for you sempai.
>>813651 Yeah, the traffic is so bad. It's probably because the city is basically two main streets and everything else is just a tiny street in between the main ones. The area is really poorly planned out.
>>813653 I'm still trying to rationalize what that new exit onto Ellis is trying to achieve lmao I went to Backwaters finally after a month of trying to convince my coworker to go with my since he didnt seem to trust me in going. Turns out its his favorite place along with a couple of others we managed to convince to come along subsequent times.

tbf most digimon turn into gundam or anime girl for final form
today absolutely sucked and I made little progress. Can't wait to not have a job one day. I need to make moves like yesterday every day and funnel the extra money to all my friends.
i wish i could have fun playing arknights but it isnt satisfying to me probably because I've played so many Tower Defense games over the last 18-20 years of WCIII >>813678 that's totally what it means, ive never seen a single bug gundam
>>813688 Ive just got a horrible problem where I'll play a game somewhat similar to a different game and just think "wow, I could go play X instead" Like playing a TD makes me just want to go play WCIII playing BDOR with it's funky ass combo system makes me want to just go play DFO instead >>813694 Uh, maybe If uh what's it called hold on eurobattle? I don't remember Oh, no, ENTGaming If that's still up I could, iirc it runs on TFT's 1.27 or something

I too enjoy Texas Smash >>813702 remember when Blizzard didn't fuck the game so hard pre-reforged Cause I don't there was a really cool patch at some point in the build up around the time they introduced 24-player lobbies that called DBU to be unplayable on Live because a grass texture was crashing the game

I will save you from yourself by becoming a rich doctor and losing sight of my own values as well but refusing to let you compromise yours. We'll have a rich person fight that decimates both of our savings and teaches us the true meaning of friendship all over again.

>>813721 Wait, is investing against his values? I'm really confused. I've been confused about his negative attitude towards his success for the past few days.
>>813721 If we're going to have a rich person's fight, can we at least not do it the Rockefeller way and just go the opposite and burn money on a bunch of cool things like reinvigorating society >>813722 my negative attitude towards success is less of an 'investment' thing and more of a constant realization that the line between success and failure is paper thin and can be crossed at any point in time with a whim.
It's not something that just happens with money, it happens with skills too. Some things just resonate the right way at the right time for the right people.

have you considerd that pan orders his burgers medium and one time we were at a place that couldn't let him do that in fact I think he wanted medium rare maybe even either way it was a temp they couldn't do

I tried to get medium at Logan's(?) And tried to get med-rare on a steakburger at somewhere, I forget where, and they STILL didn't do it it's STEAKBURGER COME ON
>>813752 None of that thinking considers a person's current environment or feelings. It only considers the economy. Self-removal from anti-capitalist system might make you contribute to it less but it will mean that you can't contribute to its downfall in any meaningful way. It does you little good to extract yourself because the system remains in place and all you've done is made yourself a 'holier-than-thou' purist. But that's not the point of being an anti-capitalist. You seek to destroy the system even if it means using the tools of // the things made by the system.

It's fine when I'm seasoning my own shit, but I don't want some faceless fuck doing it to my food. A guy I worked with was the day-shift prep/lunch-rush guy there and told us that corporate wanted them to season shit so much that the phrasing was specifically "we want them to send it back it's so seasoned" which is a dumb fuck idea

which means that's the hot topic at my work now I walked into a gas station on my break and the cashier was like "oh I bet your sick of hearing about toilet paper"
idk Ive been conditioned to it from posting with seppos so long a drunk guy once pulled me up because I accidentally said it >>813855 it's a bit of a mystery what I've heard on the grapevine is that there was an actual shortage in Japan or somewhere and people took that as a sign either way something got the ball rolling to make people think to run out and buy paper
a servo is a part of a machine that corrects errors in machine movement ya kangaroo fuckers

the raise is $1k a month so i can probably do it first month of raise or second im excited

A PC good enough for VR could also probably do most modern games quit ably as well. I know it would be a second purchase for you but if you get something like Mon Hun you, Jan, and I, and if there's other people I'm forgetting, could do some squadding about in that. Might be fun.
are there seriously shortages of toilet paper because of a meme from a zombie tv show
Anno
Honestly I don't think anyone could have forseen a sudden increase in toilet paper demand no matter where the meme originated.
Anno
Though really toilet paper was one of those things I always assumed they produced a shit-tonne of because it's so cheap.

then your clean water reservoir gets infected with 800,000 food poisoning germs because timmy deconstructed a ladder while he was climbing on it the worst feeling in ONI

It's fine just make the water sit in a room full of chlorine gas and KILL 99% OF ALL GERMS
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
i always coveted that chlorine i was very bad at that game and usually tanked my civ before i even got that far, mostly by producing way too much CO2
Anno
The knack with CO2 is to not let yourself get too scared of it. Between the algae terrariums and CO2 scrubbers it's actually really easy to recycle or delete your CO2. The real imposing part of the mid-game is heat management, since both those, and the power required to run the rest of your systems, all generate heat. If things get to hot you can't grow food, Dupes will start to get irritable if not unhealthy, and everything just spirals out of control. Heat is the biggest cinchpoint of ONI really.
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
this place pre mixes soy sauce w wasabi for you REEEE
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>813937 yea by the time i got around to the heat exchanging stuff i was so overwhelmed with everything else going on i never set up a good solution for that game has too many systems to juggle lmao
Anno
The systems all intermingle too, so you can't go too long focusing on one without bringing in another. I've never figured out a starting heat dissipation system that I'm able to get working all too well. I know there are, or at least have been, kinda buggy means of deleting heat, but even those cap their temperature output at 40C, so unless you're working with temperatures higher than that, it's not too applicable. An extremely rudimentary system is to just mine into an ice biome and haul chunks of ice from there into your base and just have the chunks sit around melting. But then you're stuck with water, water, everywhere, and it's kind of a finite solution to the problem anyway.
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
/me fires a 9000 degree giant carbon fiber knife into the sun
Anno
I've thought of stuff similar to that before. If you dig upwards eventually you'll hit the roof of the asteroid and the vaccum -vacuum of open space. So I've thought you could just dump a whole bunch of heat energy into something like water and just evacuate it into space. Once you've rooted out a geyser or two that produce water, it really doesn't become a precious resource anymore, plus I think because of some funny numbers your Dupes will produce more polluted water than clean water they consume, so over time you end up with a net positive of water anyway. So water's always felt to me a good vector for dumping waste energy.

>>813944 i like the rendering of oxygen a lot they did a crazy good job considering its just Unity
Anno
Klei is one of the few studios I will trust wholeheartedly with the early-access system. They've now put out both Don't Starve and ONI through it and both games have been fantastic, probably even better because of how receptive they are to community feedback and enthusiasm. I'm behind any game they develop that way which seems like it'll be fun for me to play.
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>813942 i covet those geysers i sent someone to analyze it once and they got scalded and died rip my best scientist game is punishing if you don't got spoilers
It's punishing if you don't pay attention! If that geyser scalded your Dupe I can say for certain the information pop-up would have been saying the tiles surrounded it were probably absurdly hot as well. Don't stick your unprotected Dupes anywhere you wouldn't stick yourself!
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
yea i learned that pretty quick that was my first time losing a dupe that way
i was very afraid of CO2 and chlorine for a while cuz i didnt realize how good they are at holding their breath i also thought the chlorine would kill them
>>813951 That's something that took me quite a while to realize too. I knew they'd hold their breath in CO2 but I completely flunked on considering that would hold true of any other atmosphere (besides water) they moved through. I still try to avoid expanding into areas that have a lot of those gases before I've got airlocks though since I try to keep the gas in my base as homogenous as possible.
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>813953 my bases were like neopolitan ice cream of gas sleeping quarters a low oxygen with CO2 threatening to suffocate everyone from the bottom right a dusting of hydrogen at the top
and random obnoxious pockets of natural gas
FormerRei@mobile
>>813954 Yum Neapolitan ice cream is the only kind I buy at the store anymore because its the only kind I like tat mmy dad doesn't. Anything else he'll just end up eating tge whole carton.
>>813954 Did you pick up any farting Dupes? They'll regularly emit natural gas. It's kind of a problematic trait to get stuck with since the complexity involved in getting that gas out of the environment and somewhere useful is really not worth it for the tiny amount they produce. But having it float around can still be problematic, and unless that Dupe gets killed off, it does add up over time.
>>813958 I might've seen a base with a hundred Dupes in it, not sure. Honestly once you've got over twenty or so running around it both really chugs your machine and creates a fairly high amount of demand to sustain.
>>813962 After the mid-game water is really not much of an issue. A larger number of Dupes at higher levels of training will need a lot of quality food and other luxuries or else they'll struggle to function and potentially create additional problems for your base. Water is a factor in all this of course, but generally if you've sussed out your water geysers of the map, you'll have a lot of throughput to use.
oh I've found an enemy and it is ring fit's planking
Anno
>>813966 Honestly slice of life anime can some times be really good at hitting sentimental story beats that can definitely get you feeling soothed or bittersweet. When you don't have some grand overarching story to tell you can get into the nitty gritty character details and just have your characters be people. And there's a charm to that which more story-driven series can some times lack.
Anno
>>813967 Planking can be really rough, yeah. Good for building that core though.
When I was doing planking months ago after kirara posted that lovely guide it was pretty ok but Ring-Fit had me doing it both longer and also working my hips into the air and back That's effort for the ton
Anno
Well if you stick with it maybe it won't be effort for long.
>>814016 Thanks! I only have a spare clue 6 at the moment. I think it's because I chose such a common name... It's too bad you can't change names in this game. >>814018 Well, I'll keep you in mind if I get it. Oh yeah, you gotta build up your base. Supports are mostly useless for farming in this game, just for challenge missions. The clues and credit store is the main benefit. >>814019 lol, yeah >>814021 Hoshi is great.
JaPAN
>>814017 I will never get the damn Clue 1 I've been stuck like this since I started the game haha
Also I finally figured out that the support operator thing It says "Unlocked when Reception" but it means "Unlocked when Reception is Lv. 2" so I got two people in my support slots now
>>814017 but how else am i gonna show off my maxed hibisukusudesu and my L O N G woman with shield
JaPAN
>>814017 i finally unlocked the ability to get chips and promote her! i procrastinate on the story so much now i have to grind that LMD out and get her to level 80
>>814022 >now i have to grind that LMD out and get her to level 80 Might be a better idea to just stop around 50 or so. Getting to lv 80 is actually a lot of work that would probably be better spent on your lower rarity ops so you can make it through story quicker and start auto'ing the dailies (LS-5, CE-5). >>814023 Ganbatte! >>814027 Check out kyostinv for low end teams for autoing if you want to get past the grind faster. The nice thing about 3*'s is that promoting them to e1 only takes lmd.
>>814034 They don't give out enough. >>814033 Yeah.... I just skipped to CE-5 where the units behind you are there from the start, and you can take them out with Lava before they start moving.
>>814039 >>814040 Yeah it is, but their name in game is Luna I checked luna and Luna just to be sure but it just doesnt show up Think they're probably right about it being because there are just too many people using that name
