    Turns out you can make up any arbitrary distinctions and they just start existing. The question is if they severe any useful purpose.

    I can make zodiac 2.0 exist by adding shoe size to distinguish between regular aquarius and aquarius without platypus (above EU 42 is with). So now the Zodiac 2.0 exists with the same predictive power as 1.0.





  • Dabbled in it since 2006. About 2012 i had problems with my network card on windows, flipped out and just installed Linux on my main home computer and have not used windows at home since.

    Started with Ubuntu and it’s flavors, recently had problems with snap packages, flipped out and installed the first non Ubuntuoid distro that promised an easy install so I could get back to whatever I was doing at the time. I currently have Manjaro at home.


  • In my case it was because Ubuntu broke on me for whatever reason (and the threat of snap packages looming).

    I did not feel like putting anymore effort into getting the computer back to working so I just switched to something not Ubuntuoid at semi random to anything that promised an easy installation.

    A year later and it’s still working. I’ll notify you when it breaks so you can tell me “I told you so”.





  • Sweden: you can apply for a licence from the police for target shooting if you’re an active member of a club, or a hunter if you have passed a hunters exam (like drivers license basically). You’ll have your criminal record checked.

    Either way the gun must be suitable for the purpose. Shotguns and hunting rifles are not very hard to get. If your criminal record is clean and you’ve got the hunters exam you’ll probably be granted a licence for up to 4 hunting rifles/shotguns with the only question being if you have a large enough gun safe. You’ll get to keep them forever unless you’re convicted of a crime. (There is a debate right now if doctors should tell the police if someone is unsuitable, the argument against is that people would not go to the doctor if they suspected they could lose their guns)

    Hand guns are harder to get and the license needs to be renewed every few years and you’ve got to prove that you are actively hunting/target shooting.

    Magazine size for semi automatic is limited. Length of rifles and shotguns are regulated as to not be easily concealable. All firearms must be stored in a heavy safe when not used. You’re not allowed to carry it around town.

    As for my opinion as a hunter it’s not excessively burdensome to get your license. The time delay has been due to under staffing rather than the laws itself. I do take issue with the “suitable for purpose” as they can arbitrarily deny you a licence because it “looks” like a military rifle.




  • The dungeon build should be alright for world quests. Especially when you get gear and can do large aoe pulls even as feral.

    If that is not to your taste you can try the leveling builds even at level 70. They usually assume you’re doing quests or running from one quest to another and they don’t assume you have tons of great gear.
