Well I thought about that, then I was thinking about how I could justify him being out at sea and wind up stranded on Palpagos. Considering that a larger rig would be what he'd be present on and realistically most of the crew would survive running aground

#

In short I'm probably not going with 'mild mannered maintenance guy', as much as I'd wanna

Though it's on the backburner if this trip to the store gives me an idea 🤔

You can make an egg incubator really early on in the game and that takes ancient civ parts

Ships go on sea trials for testing and bring on maintenance crew and engineers to be sure everything runs smoothly. There are also testing specialists and other specialists on board.

Sometimes, when mew equipment is installed, a specialist for that equipment will be on board to teach crew to use it during some sort of trial.

Depending on where your maintenance guy works, he could be hired on as a temp to make sure some equipment on a ship remains working. Could be a sea trial, could be he was hired on bc he once worked on some of the new machinery that was just installed and a guy said he would be cheaper than a specialist from the company who has never gotten his hands dirty.

It would be far, far more decayed if they were ancient

Ragnarök is an ancient Norse myth that describes the destruction of the universe and the rebirth of a new world after the cataclysm. The Ragnarök myth is described in many ancient texts such as the epic poem Völuspá, which recounts the end times as a battle between the Norse gods and between humans.

palworld makes many references to norse mythology, so i wouldnt be surprised if this is the answer; we are in a "reborn" world following a ragnarok

Not so far as to make the use of modern weaponry obsolete, but far enough to render the existence of things like 'spark plugs' to be considered 'ancient'

Twitter (or X rather) is pretty much like Steam discussion, full of radioactive waste, a pathetic being just wanted spread miserable, rage baiting on other people, Reddit is still worse as ever but at least is breathable little bit.

I hate seeing Palworld brought up during the discourse today…

It’s either being weaponized by people who think it somehow justifies their stale “console war” takes or it’s used by those who blindly bought into the lies and accusations thrown at us in January.

It’s May…if…

MS closed a few studios yesterday and I saw countless shades of "They closed X but keep Palworld open?!" or "All Xbox is left with is rip-off Palworld"

#

and I just wondered why so many people hate watch Palworld so much

#

Get a grip

#

Also, we aren't an Xbox owned game zzzz

#

I just dunno why we were being dragged into the whole thing when we have 0% relation with it

#

I understand that being anti-Palworld was GOOD views in January. Easy 250k just posting something about it on Twitter.

But it's May...seems odd to still be so anti-Palworld

Either

  1. Release games correctly with the correct regional restrictions on PC platforms
  2. Don't release PC games because you're too incompetent
#

Call me an asshole but I don't think it's that difficult, Sony know exactly where their PSN platform is available and isn't, and if they require it they can't sell it where PSN isn't available.
I struggle to understand how Sony managed to scr... wait. No I don't.
See the past 15+ years of hacks, data breeches, system mismanagement...

For anyone who missed what this is referring to:

Xbox has today announced stunning cuts and studio closures affecting a slew of development houses under the Bethesda banner.

Redfall and Dishonored developer Arkane Austin will close, and its online co-op vampire shooter will not be updated further.

Hi-Fi Rush and The Evil Within developer Tango Gameworks will also close.

Mighty Doom studio Alpha Dog Games will close and see its game switched off on 7th August.

Roundhouse Studios, born from the ashes of Human Head Studios, will meanwhile be merged with The Elder Scrolls Online developer ZeniMax Online Studios.

In addition to the losses associated with the above four studios, other jobs will go at Bethesda's publishing and corporate teams.

Xbox Game Studios chief Matt Booty announced the restructuring in a memo to staff Tuesday, writing that the closures were “grounded in prioritizing high-impact titles and further investing in Bethesda’s portfolio of blockbuster games and beloved worlds which you have nurtured over many decades.” “We are making these tough decisions to create capacity to increase investment in other parts of our portfolio and focus on our priority games,” Booty wrote.

I know a lot of people (me) wait for movies to go on streaming service because they don't like movie theaters

I like seeing some movies in theater, but, I have to make the matinee to justify going x.x
And, I like to try to wait for the movie to have been in theaters for a little bit so it isn't as packed.

How do you say Sew, with an E or an O

#

Why do some people say Sew like they say Sow

queen vale
#

Are you doing, or is it done?

small berry
#

it is done, idk if it was just a mistake and the guy didn't realise

queen vale
#

Sew - I need to sew this up
Sow - I needed to sow this up
(usually)

small berry
#

the word is 100% Sew, but idk why he said it like Sow

queen vale
#

Though also "I like to sow the seeds of chaos"

unkempt prawn
#

Sow is a female pig aswell

small berry
#

might be an accent thing?

night plume
#

Sew - I say s-Oh
Sow - I say s-Ow(for the pig)

queen vale
#

Sow for a pif is more S-ow said, where sow (stitching) is S-oh, and s-ew

#

pig. not pif.
It's not a jif, it's a gif.

peak folio
#

Pretty sure it’s just “oh” sound

queen vale
#

Blaaaaah

peak folio
#

Soh

small berry
#

So Sew is pronounced Soh in the US?

humble parrot
#

A gif of jif

queen vale
#

I can only say the UK (my region specifically) to be fair, as other areas even a few miles away change accents significantly

night plume
#

I read the guy chose the gif(jif) pronunciation bc of people's love for jif peanut butter

peak folio
#

oop, left the url tracker but w/e

queen vale

🤣

night plume
#

I need to sew on the button - s-Oh

That pig there is a sow - s-Ow

The Dumuds shall rise up and sow the seeds of destruction! - s-Oh

So people will look at me weird if I say Sew with an E?

I can kick a VC channel up if you want?

small berry

I ain't joining a VC to pronounce how I think Sew should sound

queen vale
#

Bah I am suck with the typing

night plume
#

I would have to sit in it in silence. I am at work until very late

#

And I would feel bad having people talk while I just listen

#

Besides, if I had someone join to pronounce something, I feel it only right I do the same lol

peak folio
#

The dictionary link I posted has the canon vocal pronunciation you can listen to.

night plume

scrolls up wondering when that link appeared

small berry
#

second pronounciation is how I would say it

#

[Soo]

peak folio
small berry
#

Well, I did try

peak folio
#

Sew (soh) and sew (soo) are two different words being a homograph

Isn't it confusing when Sow, Saw, and Sew all sound the freaking same?

8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for Google, I think Cloudflare is 1.1.1.1

1.1.1.1 is cloudflare ew

#

just remember not all ISPs allow you to change DNS as easily

#

you can lose your internet connection

peak folio
#

Remember what it was set to before, lol

small berry
#

it can make you lose your connection till the ISP resets them manually

#

cause you'd lose access to the router

peak folio
#

The only issue I have with Cloudflare is that they block a lot of traffic thinking it’s spam.

#

Just by dumb luck, not by using their stuff.

There's no such thing as 'going on a diet', just changing what you eat and changing the amount you take in

THERE WE GO! Third time's the charm

frozen bluff
#

😂

#

Either way

#

We've been inside a big oxidation tank all day because the intake piping system had leaks in it and they were rapidly losing air pressure

#

Failed flanges from corrosion and they needed new gaskets

#

Bolts seized and well beyond corroded (they were stainless, too. The water in question has a really, really high concentration of various salts)

#

Failed flange at the very top of the tank, inside the tank. So we had to pull the cap off the top, and the manhole door on the side, and drop down a 32-foot extension ladder to set up against the pipe so we could get up there, cut them out, replace the bolts and gasket and whatnot

night plume
#

Were they the correct grade stainless? And did they have that gunk put on them?

frozen bluff
humble parrot
#

Gunk?

#

Gunk seed!

Not sure on the grade of stainless though

But yeah it was incredibly hot and humid in there before they pulled the top off, and I had to be in there and look for where it was leaking
