  • 330 gallons of sulphuric acid was purchased for Epstein Island

    Jump

  • I second this. Sulfuric acid was my entire job for eleven years. It would definitely do the job, but it's not as simple as dropping a body into a drum with it. You'd need a lot more of it, heat, pumps for a circulation system, filtration for the parts that it won't eat through right away (hair and fingernails, possibly teeth). There are much more efficient ways to get rid of a body. Especially on an island.

  • Yes, Paradox are aware that a “barrage of DLCs” can scare away new players, for all their bundles and discounts

    Jump

  • This is exactly the case for me. I don't mind a DLC or two if they are actual full expansions of the game, but when I see a hundred little ones that should all have been one thing, I won't have anything to do with it.

  • Huh. That's disappointing.

  • In Japan, everyday life could involve this thing.

  • I have learned a lesson today. From now on when someone says, "I wouldn't recommended looking into this," I think I'll just leave it alone.

  • How do I quit smoking?

    Jump

  • I was a heavy smoker for thirty years. I quit...16 days ago. So I might not be the best to advise you on this as I'm still just getting started myself. I have quit a few times in the past though, and I can tell you what is making this time easier. First, realize that nicotine is not the problem. That's out of your system in a few days, from what I understand. It's the habit that screws it up for you. And I am definitely feeling that. I no longer have that treat to look forward to when I get home. I don't have anything to do when I'm frustrated trying to figure something out at work. I can't go outside and have one to relax and think about things. Some of my best work was accomplished while taking a smoke break. Anyway, the way I dealt with that was to start breaking the habits first. Start small. Here's what I did. First, no smoking in the house. Took some time to get used to that. Next, no smoking in the car. That took a while, because I drive a lot, but eventually I got used to it. Then, no smoking at work. Didn't even bring them with me. The reason for all this was to get myself used to the idea of not smoking during these times, so that when I stopped it wouldn't bother me as much. While I'm at work, I'm used to not smoking at work so it doesn't bother me. Same thing with the driving. So, once I got all that down, I set things up so that I would finish my last pack right before I went to bed on Sunday night. That way I wake up and go right to work. A good head start. So, that's where I am now. And it definitely helped. Nothing will ever kill cravings completely, but for me this made things easier. It still sucks though. A lot. So willpower is still going to be a big factor. I wish you luck. It won't be easy. However, if it helps, I can tell you that even after only two weeks it has made a huge difference in my mood, and drastically reduced my stress levels. Aside from being a constant stimulant, I'm also not in a hurry all the time, just trying to get to that next smoke break. I don't worry about how many I have. Things like that. So, just do it. And stick with it. It's worth it.

  • This is so painfully accurate.

  • We didn't have one of these. Instead, I got to crouch on the ground and hold the post with my hands while my father brought the front-end loader bucket down on it. Good times.
