On Subaru and CVTs, I hate most modern automatic transmissions due to the rough shift and indecision but the Subaru CVT ain’t bad at all.

I’m a big proponent of normal/semi obscure normal first name, weird middle name. John W Smith if you work in sales, J Wolfgang Smith if you’re an author. Perfect compromise.

Yup, in the office we regularly hire engineers and scientists with a bachelor’s, I’ve never seen anyone even care what tier of bachelor’s. Some people go on to get licensed or a master’s on the company dime but we also have lots of unlicensed never going back to school people in very technical demanding and high ranking positions.
I’m just a geologist with a bachelor’s and am regularly supervising and training people with engineering PhDs. My work place quickly becomes task specific and degrees are worth less than years in the field a lot of the time, your mileage may vary.
Yup, I also have times where pulses in clarity.
Liked the main story well enough. Not as good as Morrowind but on par with FO3/4 and Skyrim which I grade as mediocre. Starfield does have some of my most enjoyed faction quests though.
Biggest failings to me were the repetitive POIs and half finished sub systems that while functional could have been so much better. I’m still happy with my purchase and see myself playing again over the coming years but it’s understandable why so many people walked away from it.
I’m 60 hours in and haven’t touched the outpost, ship building, or equipment modding. Main quest and 2 faction side quests completed. I’ve enjoyed my time and bought the game with the expectation that it would be FO4 with some things improved some things worse and a new setting.
There are definitely failings and it’s not a 10/10 game but for a lot of people it’s a great game. The proc gen system needs more variety but that can be improved through updates and mods. If you prefer handcrafted content follow the quests and you’ll see minimal repeats of the POIs. I don’t regret my purchase one bit and would be fine if no DLC, mods, or updates happen even though I prefer they do. End of the day make your own decision based on what you like just realize it’s not a dumpster fire and not the perfect game that everyone should run out and play.
You have to be a bit of a masochist to love Paradox which might be why I love Dwarf Fortress too.
I ran medium to high with 2080 super, 32 gigs of ram, and a ryzen 3600. Frames stayed above 60 in most cases drops in the 40s happened in populated areas.
It took me about 40 hours of jumping between playing, videos, and guides before I was functional at CK2 but I loved that game. I’ve got over 1000 hours in CK2/3 and Stellaris. As much as I love them I can easily see why a lot of people hate Paradox grand strategy games.
I finally got my wife to stop frequenting them with a moka pot and some flavored syrups. Homemade is comparable in flavor, bit less fat and sugar, and $1-2 per cup all in.
I use a Kingrinder, $50-100, milk warmer/frother, $30, moka pot, $30, and light roast Ethiopian beans. I just order in a big bag of beans for pour over and use the same for other drinks out of convenience. I’ve had cheap espresso makers before and the moka pot is close enough for mixed drinks.
