He wouldn't be in this position if whomever was around him was more careful and made sure he never broke his hips.

Why hip fractures in the elderly are often a death sentence
https://theconversation.com/why-hip-fractures-in-the-elderly-are-often-a-death-sentence-95784
One in three adults aged 50 and over dies within 12 months of suffering a hip fracture. Older adults have a five-to-eight times higher risk of dying within the first three months of a hip fracture compared to those without a hip fracture. This increased risk of death remains for almost ten years.

When you get up in age, you need to be VERY CAREFUL not to ever break your hips or take a fall.

That's why I'm not a fan of Sting taking bumps in the ring. Sting is 62 y/o.

One wrong bump, and he breaks his hips, that's a death sentence; maybe not immediately, but soon after.

I don't want to see Sting, or any other Wrestling Legend pass away from anything other than natural old age.

I know Sting is an adult, but wrestling in the ring at his age is unnecessary IMO.

At that age, if somebody breaks their hips, it's a serious danger to their life.

That's why you need to be careful around people of that age.

I have a friend with cerebral palsy and last night she did a big post on Facebook about beating Margit so I think it's more about being willing to learn by failing, finding what works for you instead of necessarily sticking with the same strategy or weapon, and also not giving up.
You should be able to beat the game using any weapon type all the way through.

It's a matter of coming up with a strategy that works for that weapon type against the enemies you're currently facing and be willing to accept some failure along the way in the process of learning via Trial & Error.

Something like that. A big part of it is China moving over to electric vehicles as a default, and because of the way that generalized capitalism works this will end up making them much cheaper to produce than normal gas/diesel ones. By 2030 China is projected to be almost off of gas/diesel cars in terms of production but will still be <50% electric in terms of what people drive. However, as more people move to electric for the cheaper costs this number will eventually reverse. The exact time/date of this flip is largely up in the air based on which metrics you want to go with it is fairly reasonably assumed in the 2040-50 range (obviously not in the "hard numbers" sort of way). America, as well as most of the rest of the world, will largely follow suit though after some rather extreme amounts of turmoil economically. Much of the American economy is tied up in gas powered cars, directly or indirectly, and this will end up being a wild period to live through.
Given how big the Global Supply Chain is for ICE (Internal Combustion Engines) along with all the accessories market around the world.

Do you think that "Big ICE" will let you destroy it's industry so easily?

They're going to do ALOT to fight for survival.

Think how many jobs will be affected by all the industrialized nations if you go pure EV?

The best solution for everybody is Synergestic PHEV solution.

50% of your HP on 1x axle powered by ICE.
50% of your HP on the other axle powered by Electric Motors + SkateBoard Battery Pack.

It's a Win/Win situation for everybody.

Plug-In Hybrids with small All Electric Range of:
A) (_50 mi | 80 km @ GVWR)
B) (100 km | 62 mi @ GVWR)

Those will become the most common options.

The cost of all those batteries & replacing battery packs on a Pure Electric Vehicle is too high.

And the Price of Lithium has SKY ROCKETED since everybody decided to join in on the battery game at the same time:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/0/4/7/AAAFvAAAC_qX.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/0/4/8/AAAFvAAAC_qY.jpg
If you want everybody to have an option for more Lithium Batteries, PHEV are the best solution IMO.

Especially when you convert the roof of your car to be a giant Solar Panel.

Then you'll get lots of free electric range while you trickle charge via Solar.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7L1_zvqg73Q

If you live in a South West US state area with lots of sun.

You could potentially get up to 10,000 mi of "Free Electric" range every year using the roof/trunk area of a Corolla sized vehicle.

Getting Free Usable Electric Miles would be useful.

Blogfaqs. I rarely splurge all that much on myself. But feeling good about myself and reflecting on things today. I had a very difficult first 25 years. Grew up in an abusive and toxic home where police DV calls were frequent (against my parents or my brother who had violent tendencies in his teens). I was often verbally and physically abused by my mom and brother (occasionally by my dad). My brother was given everything by my parents because he was male, while my sister and I got scraps in comparison. I was relentlessly bullied from age 5-16 every single day at school due to racism.

I moved here in the US a little over 10 years ago at age 26 with $15k in debt, a mediocre job in a field I hated, and 0 life skills. I had no direction. My husband was a huge support in getting me situated, taught me the basics of saving and finances, helped pay off my debt, supported me through a huge career transition that was a big risk at the time and meant him taking a backseat in his career.

Im now making close to 5 times what I was making when I moved here. Im much more successful than my brother (hes very jealous about it too). I still feel relief at how peaceful my life is now. No more screaming. No one hitting me. No one destroying my property, or spilling juice over my head to humiliate me. Living a life I never dreamed possible with the most amazing little girl. And as a woman and a minority who managed to overcome all that and be successful, I feel extra good about it.

Anyway just felt like letting that out for some reason.

I really hope they don't add going to merchants to repair weapons. I hate when open world games do that. That just adds an extra layer of busy work that doesn't add any real fun and it's always hovering over the player for the good weapons.

If there's a quick way to gather resources in the open world to repair weapons that's different and fine with me. I just don't want to have the feeling of being rewarded when I constantly fast travel and backtrack to a blacksmith.

Significant durability is fine but I felt like that was already the case for a chunk of the good stuff. I guess they could go further though.
They should allow you to sharpen your own weapons.

Blade Sharpening is a ancient tradition and many owners of fine bladed weapons learn how to maintain their weapons out in the field with their own sharpening stone kits.

Collectors of knives & other bladed weapons do that IRL with their own sharpening stones / gear / kits.

Yeah I think the early weapons should've been easy to break, but like a knight's sword shouldn't break after 3-4 enemies. But enemies drop their weapons at such a high rate that generally you get more weapons available to you than you break. Iirc, mathematically you really should be getting more weapons than you use.

I think the better players are those who learn to use the proper weapon level against the proper level of the enemies.

But it certainly would've been cooler if the harder to obtain weapons had significant durability or at least the ability to be repaired. I have a feeling that'll be the case in BOTW2
If the weapons are from a cheapo monster made weapon where they don't understand the intricacies of forging a weapon, then yeah, it should be similar to "Mall Ninja"-grade weapons.

But a Knight's sword, made from a proper Sword-Smith, should be able to take a few hundred to thousand hits on equivalent or worse toughness materials, and should be able to get their edges re-sharpen / profiled and re-used.

There should be a real "Reliability" to a properly Forged Weapon.

And all because you get more weapons then you can use, those weapons should be "Sold" as cheapo / low grade junk and use the $$$ to manufacture or refine a existing properly forged weapon.

The difference in equipping a cheapo monster's tribe / army & budget conscript army isn't all that different.

You give them cheap / crappy gear and save the best weapons for your professional warriors, those who can use it properly.

That's the main difference in properly designed equipment using proper techniques, technology, & materials.

I just think the durability of weapons were designed to be "TOO Weak" compared to the IRL equivalents.

IRL equivalent weapons that are properly made, won't break so easily or do that much less damage when the edge is worn down, or gets worn down that quickly.

Especially when compared to the BotW durability mechanic like nature where the weapon becomes a useless mess in so few fights.

Properly forged / made weapons IRL, actually last a while and can take quite a beating, cheapo made weapons (like mall ninja bought junk) should degrade, pretty quickly when impacting a surface / material far stronger than what itself is composed of.

Properly forged / made weapons can have their edges re-sharpened after it becomes dull & re-used.

Crapily made weapons will chip or lose giant chunks out of it's edge.
