Politics 2017 part 4
Because it doesn't bring any additional costs to the company. I'm not saying its a good program, and it violates the hell out of privacy, I'm just trying to figure out what the "company" gains with this information? Usually the gain would a reduction in insurance premiums or something like that but that's not a concern for them anymore since everyone is mandated to carry health insurance now. EDIT: I supposed lost time and productivity would be cost sinks.

I am very disappointed to hear the party will be reduced to five.

Whats to be gained by an employer having this information? Weve already been "graced" with UHC, which cannot discriminate or deny anyone for any reason, and everyone is forced by law to carry, so an employer would have no reason to know any possible medical risk factors you may carry. Its not their problem to pay for. Probably a good program for astronauts and future colonists though. Personally, I would LOVE to be genetically tested to see whats going on up in here.

What you did today
Once back in the day, I was working "hazardous waste disposal" (not as dangerous as it sounds, its just garbage you cant throw away in the normal trash pickup like paint, car batteries, etc.). We would set up in a big parking lot and people would bring the stuff to us for sorting and disposal and some guy pulls up in a Lexus and pops the trunk. I walk over and look in and this guy had placed a 5 gallon container of white paint in the trunk, on its side. Well that didn't work out so good as somewhere along the trip the top had opened an the entire thing spilled out in the trunk, through the carpet, and pooled in the circular depression at the bottom that holds the spare tire. Knowing Lexus that was probably a couple thousand dollar screw up.

The Weird, Random, and Interesting things that Fit Nowhere Else Thread
What else is there to do for a living in Alaska, club baby seals? Ive been watching a TV series called Gold Rush where they detail a few crews digging for gold in the Yukon. That could be pretty sweet...a few months of hard labor for a giant payout and being off work for the winter? Yes please.

Gfted1 replied to CaesarCzech's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Somehow, someway, PoE2 has exceeded PoE1 with less than half the amount of backers. You would be stupid to not use Fig with them pumping in all this loot.

NFL 2017-2018 Season
I cant see what leverage Dallas has. JJ has already publicly stated that he will "do right rule" wrt Romo so all teams have to do is wait him out or he goes back on his work and sits on Romo until someone becomes desperate.

Casting outside of Combat
Gfted1 replied to Heijoushin's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I get the "opportunity cost" line of thinking. But if almost every fight is "post-buffed" anyway then its not really a cost is it?

I dunno man, isnt roughly 84.7% of our country on "sacred land" of some sort? We cant even build a goddamn pipe.

Casting outside of Combat
Gfted1 replied to Heijoushin's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Why is it "tedious and boring" to prebuff but not 5 seconds later to postbuff? If everyone buffs as soon as the battle starts, aren't the battles already scaled to buffed parties?

Replacing camping supplies with something
Gfted1 replied to PugPug's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Hell, I would rest in the middle of battle if I could. I prefer the challange to be derived from the opponents, not because Im on my last magic missile spell. When the mooks start showing up at half health, injured, and out of abilities then I may reconsider. Nah.

Antonio Ramiro Romo is highly underrated. He would be a huge upgrade over Siemian and Lynch for a couple years.
