There are certain unique experiences you don’t get later. There are a few places that have field trips in college, but for most people that is only during regular primary school.

I believe the head rush effect is mostly when you first start and after that it diminishes and then you’re just dealing with the withdrawal.

They don’t need much maintenance and the engine brake evs do to recover the energy removes stress on the regular brakes so the brakes last a lot longer.

But an electric car is basically just a bigger rc car, it doesn’t need any real maintenance. There’s no fluids.

Its just like pandas, if you can find a niche where there is a ton of low quality food that nobody else wants but you can gobble it down then you win.

Cables are better but they have a minimum time to setup and can be inconvenient if you do it while traveling. If you just need a quick transfer then using an app or wireless transfer is better.

I think the next book is mostly finished, and will release before he dies if he lasts a while or will be in a state where it can be finished easily by an outside writer. The last book will never be finished so if he has the ending written and some solid notes someone could write it but probably will just be unfinished.

When you can recognize thoughts are fleeting and smart enough to never report them on paper.

I played through the main quest. I didn’t really enjoy any of it.

You would have to basically make a whole game and rewrite characters and quests to make it better. But that’s a lot of work for modders especially when they’re not that interested in the game to start with.

But really you could make a fantastic game with the engine they had and starfield could have been good if it had great writing and great characters and quests. If people loved it and had some gripes about technical limitations that would be one thing. It’s an okay game with technical limitations, that makes it a bad game.

Yes, the second I realized they were actually doing that with literally copy pasted areas and notes and characters it killed the game for me. I can be reasonable for a dungeon having the same layout but not written content and characters. It invalidates the entire experience.

The fundamental concept and theme of the game is trash. It literally makes everything you do meaningless, it inevitably leads to you becoming the jaded villain. It would be better if they had an end where you destroyed the universe shifting thing and were locked in one.

Either way you would run into the problem of having a huge amount of your calories come from alcohol, without any nutrients. Unless you’re just drinking beer, which is just liquid bread.

Well that’s not really in there, he is often described as an adversary. But it is notable that there are many times where he is used by god in a necessary way.
- Comment on I think Judas kissed him 4 weeks ago:
It’s the same idea as the actual Satan in the bible who is mostly just a dude given tasks by god to tempt people.

There are national forests next to it and native reservations nearby and a more difficult path to Canada, so you would expect some of the males to roam out. That’s only really a problem if they’re isolated.

In theory if you didn’t have heating you could get a cheap used machine and run it and the revenue might cover the cost of heating and you get a free to run space heater.

- Comment on Anon studies Buddhism 1 month ago:
Plain Buddhism was kind of a downer so they made stuff like pure land buddhism that is more of a fun afterlife version instead of hardcore OG Buddha which is like kill yourself and stop existing forever because the world is just an eternal cycle of pain and reincarnation into more pain forever.

The hungry tiger jataka is my favorite
"One day, the Bodhisattva and one of his disciples decided to take a stroll in the forest nearby. This had become a regular practice. They often went for strolls.
While they were walking, the Bodhisattva notices something extremely terrifying. He saw a tigress, which looked weak and hungry. The tigress was about to devour her own cubs. Now, that moved the Bodhisattva’s heart. He did not want the poor animal to suffer the guilt of eating her own cubs. So, he came up with an idea.
He sent his disciple back to do something. The Bodhisattva had decided that he would offer himself as food to the starving tigress. He simply could not let her eat her cubs. And he knew if his disciple had seen this, he would definitely stop the Bodhisattva from offering himself. You may also like to read, The Tiger And The Golden Bangle.
After the disciple is gone, the Bodhisattva approached the tigress. With the utmost compassion in his heart and no malice, he let the tigress devour him. The tigress ate him and fed the cubs as well. After a while, the disciple returned. When he saw the Bodhisattva’s blood stained clothes, he realized what had happened.
He knew the Bodhisattva well. So, he knew the hermit had offered himself to save the tigress. He went back and told his fellow disciples of the Bodhisattva’s sacrifice out of love and compassion. "
