Honestly I would try reaching out to some local or regional news networks to see if they want to run your story. I’m sure they’ll love also having the video because they can show it during the segment. It sucks that it has to suddenly become a PR matter for the companies involved for them to give a shit.

Oh nice! Do you know the name of the launcher? All my searches just bring up ornithopter rockets.

Hah, so true! I haven’t heard or seen anything about a portable rocket so I think you’re correct. The only heavy weapons (which won’t help against vehicles) are essentially the big machine gun and flamethrower, the same ones the heavy NPC’s have.

“This silk used to lift the prey, it’s very strong, comparable to steel, but it is as elastic as the normal silk you would use to make clothes”

That’s crazy, and awesome.

I’m about 85 hrs in and will probably stop playing around 100. I’m playing solo btw, and it’s been fun but it feels like there’s no end game for me. Even as a group I would question if the end game is even worth it. All I have left to do is unlock all the skills (but there’s no challenging and engaging PvE content to justify it), and build a big base for funsies, which is what I’m doing now.

They need challenging repeatable PvE content to keep people like me engaged, or rewarding pvp gameplay. I was hoping the Deep Desert would be more akin to something like Rust, but really all they’ve done it taken the last tier of resource materials, spread them out over a very boring and empty map, and force you to be pvp flagged to get it. And you have to fly everywhere there, 1) because it’s fast and avoids worms, and 2) because the only vehicle combat is shooting rockets from the ornithopter so you’re dead to pvp if anyone else comes after you and you’re not in one.

Plenty of The Rock and Con Air mentions, so I’m going to toss one out for Gone in 60 Seconds.

Yes the writing is terrible and it has its fair share of cringe moments, but damnit I still like it. Perhaps it was the cast, or the weird 90’s/00’s aesthetic, or maybe because I was still in my formative teen years, pre 9/11, aka the before times, but it holds a special place in my heart.

Sometimes it’s fun, when you know it’s spam, to answer it while it’s ringing (which may let the operator know ‘hey, they answered, start talking’) and quickly hit Speaker and Mute and enjoy 5-10 sec of them being confused when they hear silence back.

It was always fun to be driving down the highway and suddenly picking up somebody’s stream, then annoying when you realize you’re in traffic with them and now they’ve hijacked the station you were listening to

What’s next? Am I going to find out my AI girlfriend is actually a real woman? Smh my head, can’t trust anything these days

Add “cooked.wiki/“ in front of any recipe url to preserve your sanity

Exactly. Your game is bad if I have to look up how to do something as simple as equip a weapon. Your game is bad if I have to run around like an idiot for 15+ minutes after every death before having the chance of doing something enjoyable again.

The best was when you got a “full peel” from a really dirty wheel without it breaking into pieces.

“We regret to inform you that your Lifetime Pass has died in a restructuring related accident. Consider easing your loss by browsing our other pass options.”

I guess that’s a good thing considering the state of things. Better to go from 100 - 99 % funded vs 100 - 0 because some clowns decide you shouldn’t exist anymore.

“idclip” for Doom

“pot of gold” for Warcraft 1

Oh and of course, how could I forget “how do you turn this on” (x20 usually) for Age of Empires II

“OnlyFans has a moderation problem and can’t properly prevent CSAM and sex trafficking on its platform”

“Well, it’s clearly the credit card companies fault”

Whenever I see a mountain range Uncle Rico pops into my head.

I felt like I was taking crazy pills while watching it as I tried to reconcile what I was experiencing vs what I heard from others.
