I agree with your note about medium armor penetration. It’s nice to have, but across the weapons I’ve tried the damage has felt unimpressive enough that I’d rather just find a way to make a different weapon with light armor penetration work.

I’ll have to give it a shot, I’ve had some crashes with my 6750 XT running through Proton. Is there any noticeable change in performance or visuals when switching?

I’ve actually found that heavy armor makes it harder, at least for me - too difficult to escape sticky situations. I’ve been running light or medium armor with the scout passive and playing like it’s a stealth game - sneak up to an outpost, lob an eagle/orbital/impact grenade/etc in to clear out the fabs and bots, then quickly clear any objectives and get out before a patrol arrives

The trick I’ve found with the Quasar is the range - find a target, blast them from 50m away, then sneak around and kill any pursuers before lining up a second shot if necessary.

Yep

There are a few (difficult, but possible) ways to get extra copies despite the limit though, like changing your name

Please don’t give your SSN to health care institutions, they don’t need it. They like to ask for it on their intake forms so that they can find you more easily if they need to send your debt to collections, but most will accept a blank entry anyways.

No, you don’t need to carry it around. Memorizing it and keeping it safe for the few occasions you do need the card itself is fine.

Each table contains one column with the patches and one column without the patches - the hardware is unchanged. The different tables are to measure the impact of the patches across different hardware.

Note that Mullvad no longer allows port forwarding, which can make it harder to torrent effectively

Google has one, but it’s still very small at the moment.

They also have carryout one topping 14" pizzas for $8 in my area, which is an even better deal than $7 for 12".

What was the pre-release story for BZ? I played it this year and thought the story was fine, though it didn’t manage to recapture the feelings of mystery and discovery of the first game

Gonads are either testes or ovaries (at least for humans)

Battery powered EVs also have a greater environmental impact to manufacture than equivalent ICE vehicles, but the greater efficiency in energy conversion and the lack of emissions offsets this in less than five years of use on average. Ideally, it will continue to improve as battery technology advances as well.

I’m still annoyed that the Massachusetts ballot question on RCV failed to pass because of the unclear phrasing

And then there’s Mr. Robot in its own tier, using actual real-world tools and frameworks, with realistic flags and everything!

I’m just glad pixels have finally been coming around on more updates. I was forced to replace my Pixel 3 if I wanted to use it with the BYOD program at work because it had reached the end of the update cycle, even though it was in fine condition and still met my needs. Now I’m on a Pixel 7, and hopefully I can get the full five years of use from it.

Hmm, I bet most of the functionality could be replicated using a browser extension. Pretty much the only thing I think you wouldn’t be able to access would be saved passwords and credit cards. Networking might be an issue as well if you were trying to set up an ad-hoc system like KDE connect uses.
