18-24 usually gets grouped together for census and survey stuff so you got a good year left in the tank before you're part of the 25-44 crowd

It refers to either a limited time reward structure where you pay for the ability to earn rewards such as cosmetics or other perks in multiplayer games such Fortnite and Valorant (If you don't earn the needed XP within the designated timeframe then you may not even get those rewards you paid for) or access to DLC content in general for both single and multiplayer games where some functionality/maps/modes are gated behind a single or recurring payment.

Some RNG manips are straight up harder than just hunting them in SV tbh. Anyone can get/buy a Pokemon Home account with 1000 genned shinies if they wanted to so it's up to you to determine what you consider "legit". I enjoy hitting timing required to get shinies through RNG manips so I do it. Some people think gen 9 shinies are too "cheap" and others don't use shiny charms and only hunt full odds (but still hunt on multiple systems at once for whatever reason). It's a weird rabbithole to go down so just do what you want. No one is going to grade your shinies.

Biden sent $8 billion in weapons immediately before he left office and Trump reversed the pause on 2,000lb bombs and sent $1 billion immediately after taking office

You clearly don't care about whether or not 2,000lb bombs were available and in use. You just care about whether a performative gesture was made.

And they clearly never ran out of 2,000lb bombs to use. They just happened to need some more now.

[–] Sami@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (4 children)

Yup, he just sent them at least 14,000 of them before doing that. More than all other bombs combined according to leaks. 2000 pounds bombs were in use in September in Lebanon.

A lot of Dearborn's Arab population is Palestinian and Lebanese and had/have family at risk of being killed. You know when those 2,000 pound bombs get shipped to Israel they actually get dropped on people and kill them, right?

This discussion is specifically about Gaza and the region. Gaza would have still be demolished during a Harris administration and the political goals of the Israeli regime would be unchanged.

Yes, Trump and his ilk are horrible for Americans and world stability. That has been the case for a decade unfortunately the opposition hasn't been able to garner enough votes to beat an incredibly unpopular candidate by forcing even more unpopular candidates on people for 3 consecutive elections. Blame people who voted for Trump for him being in office but don't blame people who did not vote for his opposition for the opposition's failure to provide compelling candidates. It's no different than Trump blaming the EU for not buying more US products.

After many rumors and leaks , today it has finally been announced that Borderlands 3 will be coming to Switch this year. The official account of the game on

 

Fantastic value at 60USD

 

NOTE: Please backup your saves before attempting any of this as it involves modding your game files and that always poses a risk of data loss if things go wrong. Also, there may be some differences between original and remaster that I'll mention.

So the Knoxx DLC is notorious for being a driving simulator and BL1 DLC not having any fast travel stations except for the starting areas makes farming very tedious. Fortunately, there are ways around that on PC:

The "simple" way for Crawmerax and the Crimson Lance Armory

  • Download the Essentials Mod by LegX

Remaster/Enhanced version: https://www.nexusmods.com/borderlandsgotyenhanced/mods/7

Original version: https://www.nexusmods.com/borderlands/mods/34

  • Extract the WillowGame folder into your installation directory with the same existing folder: eg. a default Steam install should be in \Steam\steamapps\common\BorderlandsGOTYEnhanced\WillowGame\

  • Go to save data location eg. \Documents\My games\Borderlands Game of the Year\WillowGame\Config

  • Open WillowEngine.ini. Search for DefaultGlobalsDefinitionName=gd_globals.General.Globals

  • Replace it with DefaultGlobalsDefinitionName=gd_globals_custom.General.Globals

  • Launch game

  • Open Pause menu -> Options -> Mouse and Keyboard -> Keybindings -> Bind Fast travel to Craw/Knoxx Armory to whatever button

Notes: If you travel with the bind and are done with the area make sure you save quit instead of just traveling to it again as that will not save your current progress\

Also binding Fast Travel UI lets you fast travel from anywhere which is a big QoL improvement.

The manual way for Ajax (and Craw/Knoxx if needed)

  • Go to \BorderlandsGOTYEnhanced\WillowGame\CookedPC\DLC3\Maps

  • Copy dlc3_gondola_p.umap

  • Go to \BorderlandsGOTYEnhanced\WillowGame\CookedPC\Maps\Arid

  • Paste dlc3_gondola_p.umap

  • Rename Arid_SkagGully_P.umap to something like Backup_Arid_SkagGully_P.umap for safekeeping

  • Rename dlc3_gondola_p.umap to Arid_SkagGully_P.umap

  • Launch game

  • Fast travel to Skag Gully

  • You should spawn within 1 minute of Ajax as shown here

  • For Lance Armory and Crawmerax Repeat with dlc3_uberboss_p.umap for Crawmerax and dlc3_lancedepot_p.umap for Armory which can also in found in \BorderlandsGOTYEnhanced\WillowGame\CookedPC\DLC3\Maps

Another map you can replace is 'Arid_Cave_P.umap' which corresponds to The Lost Cave. You can use any map as a replacement but those are just the ones I've used before.

Note: the gondola file for Ajax may only work for the remaster or there may be a better one to use for the original if you search the large .umap files for yourself and try each one you might be able to find one that spawns you right in front of his area in the original version of BL1
