Think of a balloon expanding. All the dots on the surface are moving away from one another. No dot is the centre.

A common procurement agency would be a logical next step and solve a lot of the cost problems without incurring command issues, no?

It helps to give the pineapple a really good squeeze to reduce the liquid before you put it on. Then use the juice for sangria or whatever. :)

Not all DNS hosts support that. Webnames.ca, looking at you...

Also my workplace hosts their own dns and I think it will be a cold day in hell before they let me do automated updates.

Sounds like a Murdoch Mysteries plot. Terence Myers establishes a top secret spy org financed through the Maple Syrup Reserve...

In The Long Dark, making an improvised axe is more a midgame item. Gotta find a forge and a heavy hammer, then enough coal. Not to mention stocking up food and water for the wait while you heat it up and craft it.

It became a running joke (at least in my circles) that if you want to spot a Canadian, look for a Roots bag or MEC gear. Only Americans would wear a Canadian flag. Though this was before Roots enshittified and offshored all their manufacturing to China, and before MEC dissolved their co-op through evil shenanigans and went privately-owned.

"The Department of Government Efficiency, Musk's vehicle. made news by "discovering" the General Services Administration uses tapes, and plans to save $1M by switching to something else (disks, or cloud-based storage)."

twin emperors as paladin tank (self.classicwow)

I'm having a bit of struggle tanking (prot paladin) Vek'linash. I'm able to hold threat on him fine, but unbalancing strike (-100 defense) rocks me pretty hard, since I keep getting scarabs on me, which eats up all my HS charges and I'm pretty sure that's pushing me into crittable range as well as crushable.

I've taken consecrate off my bars and de-runed HotR for exorcism, but I keep getting the scarabs too, and then get rocked down to 20% health.

Any advice? I've stacked as much +def as I can and am using Greater Stoneshields and armour elixirs as well as the usual suite of ALL THE CONSUMABLES.

Scrapyard Engineers is a lot of fun (steamcommunity.com)

Splitsie's Scrapyard Engineers scenario is pretty great, I've been enjoying it, and if you haven't tried it, it's worth a crack.

The concept is that you basically don't get refiners or assemblers, and only a limited number of blocks you can make. Everything else, you have to find from wreckage strewn about the landscape. The goal is to get to space.

In addition to the base modpack, I strongly recommend Improvised Experimentation. The author also recommends it, but tunes down the carry weight so that you have to use cranes more. I didn't, but a crane is still extremely useful.
