  • Oh yeah you can basically do everything from god mode to impossible without a group of people. I haven't played in a while, but it probably still works...if you melee while sprinting and immediately use your boost it'll propel you forward a lot faster than just running. It's the best way to get around before you get vehicles

  • NMS is probably my most played game of all time. It has changed so much since release and the devs seem to genuinely like working on the game (every update has been free). The modding scene is pretty good too and you can freely edit your local save file as well.

    Another commenter pointed out it's basically just a sandbox, but there are a few long quest lines and they have temporary events with a checklist of goals for rewards and such. It's still basically just a sandbox with some extra steps, though. They've also diversified the planets and creatures a lot over the years.

    Anyway, I'd say it's a game for anyone who likes survival/sandbox/crafting/building. The difficulty options are great as well, you can make it an incredibly difficult game if you want, but you can also make it as easy as you want.

  • It's been so long since I've been in this situation that everything is different now, but 20 years ago the trick to making money morally and legally without having a normal job was to diversify. You won't make $1k selling plasma or scrap, but you can make a few hundred. Busking is great in some areas if you can play an instrument or anything like that. Panhandling can be alright, but I've heard it's harder these days in person.

    The moral AND legal part makes this a lot harder btw. Have you considered giving one of them up?

  • The Gallup polls always had trump bouncing up and down between like 35% and 50% over the years, but early in his first term is almost identical to this one. I don't really trust polling in general anyway, but I guess there's not much else to go off at this point. He did get booed pretty hard at the Superbowl

  • This is pretty much the point. Congress will initially approve the fund, but then it is basically up to the Trump admin to do whatever with it. I imagine there will be some infrastructure explanation similar to what the Biden admin planned to do. Likely the way the bill will be written will give them a lot of flexibility on how they spend the money.

    Even if Dems take Congress during midterms, Trump could still have access to a large budget this way

  • I basically always dress like I'm about to go hiking, so fashion isn't really a thing for me, but Carhartt makes ripstop cargo pants that I like a lot. They're usually about $60 new, but sometimes I find them in thrift stores (never in my size). Anyway, they're super durable and loose enough for me to work/hike in them and they don't give me a lot of sensory issues. They don't do the swishing sound a lot of cheaper options do. The fabric is breathable enough for the mild summers where I live and I wear a base layer underneath during the winter.

    Cargo pockets are nearly a requirement for me. I can fit a lot of snacks, gloves, etc. All the buttons (snaps on the pockets) and zippers are well made, reinforced pockets to clip your knife or a tool, gusseted crotch.

    I've had one pair for about 3 years now and they are a little worn/faded in spots, but no holes yet. Since then I've bought a few more pairs. The only negatives are you can't really wear them for office settings in some places (Pacific Northwest doesn't seem to care) and I think the pants make me look more like a cop

  • One time my partner offered to drive this older lady who lived nearby to do some errands. Turns out her errands were basically going to a bunch of retail stores to complain at them about the silliest things, like how she let her store credit card expire or something like that. Shit they can't even really do anything about in the store. Partner didn't even know because they just sat in the car at first, but went inside and one of the workers explained the old lady does it a lot.

    Sad, but also fuck her for manipulating my partner into helping her harass retail workers
