You're fighting the wrong war, man! Trees don't use bullets, they have BETTER weapons! Look out for the gimps! THE GIMPIE!

What are ya talking about, brosef? That's a great design! We're engines of warfare, and in warfare machines, ya gotta have redundancy! More redundancy! And spread the vitals around, make sure a stray pinecone launched from a big 80 foot enemy war machine above ya doesn't take ya out! The trees are coming!

Lol, fair. Shoot a DM if you ever want a summon sign.

Sure would be a shame if someone damaged the bulkhead. Especially since some consultants said it would cause more destruction.

It happens all the time. Officer makes the decision to arrest, puts the person in handcuffs and the car. A supervisor shows up, a story gets changed, or an officer finds out that something proves someone is lying, and the person is released. I've seen it happen when a non-violent offender had warrants, but it turned out they were having a kid's birthday party (discovered when the dad came out to check on the mom because she'd been outside 'smoking' for longer than usual).

Arrested is a step up from detention. Detention = you're not free to leave. Arrested = you are not free to go, you're coming with the officer to jail, and they have belief you committed a crime that you will be charged with (or have a warrant, thus already charged). There is nothing that says once arrested an officer can't take off handcuffs and let you go. There really isn't that much distinguishing the two in the law, except for statutes about identifying yourself (where I live, anyway). My laws use the word custody in far greater amounts than arrest.

Were you able to find the expansion? I have 1 and 2, and deserts of kharak, but haven't gotten around to finding the expac.

Do you have any friends that play? If you do, and don't like the way summoning works, I totally, completely recommend the seamless coop mod. It was amazing.

Dex weapons will come, don't you worry.

Go back! Tread not on this dark path, padawan. Learning leads to the dark... places.

Just want to point out, many, or even most, police work 12 hour shifts as well.

The second thing I want to point out is that many of these workers want shifts like that. Having to work (depending on your schedule) a 2/2/5/5 or a 3/4/4/3 is seen as a nice thing. I know people in all three of the public service front-facing jobs, and they would fight you if you (as a city council member or something) proposed to change the scheduling from a 12 to an 8.

The third thing is that rotating shifts suck. I worked one where we switched ever 3-4 weeks, and that was like gargling monkey balls as you try to wake up for that first day shift, or stay awake on that first night shift. I can definitely see how those can contribute to death and dying. Conversely, when I worked straight nights for two years, I never really had issues. Long term, maybe, but the article you linked even mentions that it's the rotations specifically that make it bad.

Oh, and the fourth thing. Suburb or not, sleep is rare. I can probably number the number of times a night let you have more than 1-3 hours of sleep in the low scores, whether I was in urban, suburban, or bum-fuck rural (and I've done all three, at least 3 years each now). People are always ill, dying, or getting into trouble.

No, no. You gotta use the real medical terms. Riders are "organ donors," and the bikes are "angel makers."

Well, god doesn't like them, obviously. It's why they had a building dropped on top.

NORMALLY they don’t consciously form memories or have control of their faculties

And remember, those two states (not being able to form memories AND not having control of faculties) can be, and sometimes are, two different drugs. It's why you have the horror stories of people remembering waking up on the surgery table, but being unable to move.
