In my hard mode GD run, Raphael was doing pretty well. Give him some gauntlets and he does some work (not as much as Dedue from BL, best house btw). He did have a speed problem though, but he was a tank and barely took damage. Ignatz was definitely the weak link in the group, so making him the dancer gave him more use.

Sometimes I do want to follow the conversation. I'll read all the threads, and a couple hours later refresh and the number of comments has gone up, but now I have to search every thread for new comments. Even in my own posts when I see more comments added to the counter, I have to scan the entire thing to see which thread had a new post in it. It's awful.

Loot boxes were removed almost 3 years ago.

Anyway, I saw it on gamepass after EA dumped everything on it, I might pick it up someday, if only for the single player since I don't play online.

My last job was an internship that went on for 2 years, they liked me enough and asked me to stay. After I graduated I asked for a full time position and they said they didn't have any open. They knew I was going to leave, but they let me stay up until I got a new job, which took around 2 months.

At 50 minutes exactly, the woman on the call asks a very long question, paraphrased it's"

"What I don't understand is why wouldn't it be in everyone's best interest to get to the bottom of the truth. We don't have anyway of confirming what your telling us. You tell us you had an investigation at the State Farm Arena, I've never seen a report of an investigation, I don't know what that is, I'm very involved in this and I don't even know."

Basically confirming that Trump is old man yelling at clouds (also Trump didn't answer the question, he just grabbed onto a word she said and ranted about how he won Georgia, easily). Mainly the call is just Trump ranting, but occasionally the others will jump in and say something which amounts to "we found no evidence of that".

I'm skimming through the full audio, and somewhere around 23 minutes Trump brings up a video of someone messing with ballots, and the guy says that Rudy and his team "slice and diced" that video to make it look completely different. Apparently the full video doesn't show that series of events at all.

So yea, Trumps people are feeding him straight lies.

Even on vacation there's plenty of downtime to play games. I went to Italy a few years ago and brought my Switch. It got plenty of use on trains/buses/plane, waiting for food to be made at home, early in the morning since I'm normally up before most people, and late at night winding down from the day.

Questions like this always confuse me.

You like french fries but not mashed potatoes??

Well, yes. They have different taste. Its not unusual for someone to dislike tomatoes but be fine with pasta and tomato sauce or pizza.

The worst one I ever heard was from my brother. I dont like eggs, so he tried to get me with "how do you not like eggs but like cake?" I was so stunned that I couldn't answer that.

But I'm one of those people who doesn't like tomatoes but like pasta/pizza sauce. And it's simple, sauce doesn't taste like straight tomatoes. It doesn't have the same taste or texture, and has a ton of other ingredients added so you can't even taste the tomato. Would you smash some tomatoes and pour the remains over your pasta and say it's exactly like pasta sauce? No, because that would be awful.

There are a lot of returning characters, but knowing their backstories is not important for LAD. It's pretty self contained so you won't be lost. It was also my first yakuza game, but I have a passing knowledge of the returning characters.

The very first two you're supposed to lose money (tutorial reasons), then you're allowed to move employees around and the game won't let you progress until your in the green, from that point on you should never lose money or rank.

Each location has 3 employees, the leader uses all 3 stats, and the other 2 employees only use one of their stats, depending on the slot. If you have an employee who is strong in the presents icon but they are set in a slot that only has the heart icon lit, they're basically useless. All the stats add up to your 3 bars in the bottom right corner. Each of those bars has a vertical line, try and hit that line, although it's not mandatory to making money (you'll make more if you do though). Also make sure your employees are happy. In the employees menu there's a button on the bottom that says auto recovery. Do that every other run and you'll make more money.

The bulk of your money comes from upgrading your locations, especially the upgrade on the top of the list that I can't remember the name. Always upgrade your locations to max and make sure your stats can keep up. Leveling up your employees also raise their stats a bit.

ALWAYS take the commercial slot when available, it's random, but it's free money.

Shareholder meetings are a lot easier than they make it seem. All you really need is 3 employees, one of each color (have a 4th though, you'll get more total action points). Get your employee of each color with the highest charisma stat, as that's the attack stat. You can memorize the color wheel, but I'm too slow at that so I use visual clues for my choices. Select one of the people and when they say their words, scroll through your members until you see the words "weak" under their text, or memorize that colors weakness and go right there. It'll take 1 hit to knock them down, then under the timer it says to use a certain color for a combo or something (or again, memorize the color wheel and go right to it). Go to that color and use it a bunch of times until they're knocked out. Repeat for everyone. Your action points regenerate over time, so don't go too fast or else you'll run out of points. Wait until your timers are almost full before selecting stuff. If you run out of points, you can do the apology power, which at level 2 and 3 (aim for 3, just takes time to build), will give you a bunch of points. By the end I had a max of 100 action points and ended shareholder meetings with 50 points while going as fast as I can, it would also take less than a minute, it's easy.

That's the main stuff I can remember. Is there something in particular you're having problems with?

I do not know anyone who would want 10 hour days, that is wasting to much time at work.

In the middle of the year there was a survey to see if people wanted to switch to a 4/10 schedule, and I think it was 87% of people voted yes (a few thousand people took the survey). So starting next week we're moving to the 4/10 schedule. I don't know how I feel about it yet, 10 hour days are long, but 3 day weekends are nice.

Our previous schedule was where we work 9 hour days normally but get every other Friday off. So we're not jumping from 8 hour days right to 10 hour days, we've been used to 9 hours for a while so it probably won't be too bad.

Since I've gotten a job where I come home late on weekdays, I've been having what I call a "food project" every weekend for a couple months now, with the objective to get better at certain skills. For example today was fried chicken, the skill being the flour breading. Before that was dealing with raw chicken in the first place, so I made quesadillas. I've also went through a 5 pound bag of potatoes and did baked, mashed, and scallop potatoes, with fries on the menu eventually. Last weekend was baked mac and cheese, the skill being to make my own alfredo sauce. I've also done mac and cheese with my own cheddar cheese sauce.

You don't have to jump into a big dish from the start, build up to it. My first cooking project was plain fried rice with soy sauce. And now that I'm familiar with raw chicken, I can now add that to my fried rice. I've also done pigs in a blanket with store bought cressant rolls, so to build into that I will eventually learn to make my own cressants. I learned basic french toast, so now I can add all the fancy stuff on it.

The best tip is watch YouTube videos. You can get recipes in text form, but it's much easier to learn when you can see what the food is supposed to look like at each step and when to continue on. Also you learn a lot of cooking tips such as how to use certain tools or they'll tell you warning signs such as when something is about to burn.

The FBI definition of terrorism is:

The unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.

Terrorism isn't just simply killing people or destroying property, there needs to be a purpose behind it. Until we know the motive, we cannot say it's terrorism.

A $2000 PC is going to future proof it so that it will run every current gen game better than the consoles for the entire generation, and possibly be better than the PS6.

So it's not a matter of which game right now is worth it, it's which games in the next 10+ years are worth it, and I'm sure there will be a ton.

There have been studies that say working 50-60+ hours per week hurts productivity a lot. You're often making mistakes that would have never happened, and then using time to fix those mistakes. Plus just being tired so your normal 0-40 hours would be done while exhausted.

https://gethppy.com/employee-engagement/rise-fall-40-hour-work-week

Research done by John Pencavel of Stanford University, shows that productivity decreases after 50 hours of work and is almost zero when work increases to 55 hours. So basically, the more people worked past 50 hours, the less those hours added to their overall productivity. Making matters worse, working past 55 hours could even negate the gains in productivity from working between 40 and 50 hours. Fatigue, stress, accidents, sickness, and errors caused by working more than 50 hours made them less productive than if they had just stopped working.

In white collar jobs, working more than 60 hours a week caused productivity to decline by about 25%. In manufacturing jobs, every 10% increase in overtime results in a 2-3% decrease in productivity.

https://cs.stanford.edu/people/eroberts/cs201/projects/crunchmode/econ-hours-productivity.html

This effectively means that productivity during 60 hour weeks would be less than two-thirds that of what it was when 40 hour weeks were worked.

I can't believe the anti-vaxxer argument of "if the vaccine works why do you care if I get it or not?" is so prevalent in this topic. I thought we all understood it's stupid by now. Some people want the vaccine but can't for reasons such as age or medical conditions. These types of people also are more likely to die if they get the disease. So you not getting vaccinated increases their chance of getting that disease.

I bought a used car with 170k miles on it, 5 years later (last month) I traded it in at 260k miles. I've only had 1 major repair the whole time that cost around 2,000.

Back when I worked slightly more than minimum wage that's all I could afford. Now I have a good paying job so I bought a new car. But that old one was great.

One way to grind class experience is to get the double class exp boon plus an item to double it again, so you get 4 points per combat. Class exp is gained by participating in battle, even on the defence, so unequip your weapon and send them into an area with enemies that do 0 damage or a little damage with a healer nearby. Just skip turns and let the enemy hit you (and you won't counter attack because of no weapon) until you master the class.

I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you're like, a few battles away from mastering and the mission is about to be over.

I don't like turn-based strategy.

It's not turn based, it's real time but time pauses while your in the battle menu. Kind of like the final fantasy ATB system (your attacks have cool down) but only for your side, the enemy is always moving and attacking when your not in a menu.

The combat was a lot of fun, and it's only a small part of the game.

That was addressed in the video. The secret service is lead by 1 guy, and that guy reports to the current president. So Trumps secret service team would just be told to stand down by the head of the secret service and Biden.
