Q: Where can I travel on a suspended US passport, assuming I've already left my home country?

I am a US citizen living in Europe with a valid long stay visa in an EU country. My US passport was marked suspended in the US Health and Human Services database for non-payment of support, but my passport (the physical document) says it is valid for another ten years. My question is: If I fly...

two bugs

I like that Travel is another SE that gets some completely insane questions

"I'm wanted in 10 countries, can I visit Ikea?" Probably not

WorldBuilding is still my favorite because someday a supervillain is going to crowdsource the planning of their evil agenda to WorldBuilding and then spare the SE network after seizing power

@Arperum the keeper is so bad I can't even savescum him out of the caves

I just can't

Arperum

@badp Going to be interesting once I unlock him.

badp

I'll often just get hit twice in the same second or something

you go from full health to dead as fast as you can read "ugh ugh"

not even enough time to realize you've been hit and reach for the escape button

Arperum

I did complete maggies note yesterday, so that's 6 notes done. and I'm at 610 coins in the greed machine.

badp

@Arperum I just know that as soon as I stop trying with the Keeper I'm just going to get that super amazing build that would even redeem him

Arperum

@badp Probably. I was like "fuck it, I'll do a random maggy run to get try to beat hush, whatever. ANd I got epic fetus in the first itemroom.

I got third eye somewhere on the chest.

I got saved by infamy at least 20+ times duing the hushfight.

badp

14:18

when I did get to the chest as the keeper I got 0 chests

zero

Arperum

the bloody thing kept down while clouding the whole room with bullets for minutes on a time, to then pop up for a second to spawn a bunch of minions and go back into hiding forever.

badp

@Arperum usually when that happens you have to kill all other enemies in the room

Arperum

@badp Good luck with a slow firing thing like epic fetus and those stupid nubs all over the place.

it doesn't even have to come up to spawn more of the things.

badp

@Arperum the flies can be one shot

same probably with the blue follower things

then you need to wait a little for the nub things

Arperum

@badp It's those nubs that shoot bullets, and are jsut far enough away from eachother to not be able to blow up two at the same time.

nukeforum

14:21

@Arperum Argh! Noooo! :(

Arperum

I could oneshot basically everything. epic fetus with a couple damage ups only downside is that it is extremely slow firing.

The chest was ridiculous though, I got the wafer and triple shot. So at that point everything was a joke.

Oh: champion boss? don't care. One hit kill.

I killed megasatan just because I could (I found dads key in a chest in the secret room)

I think I didn't even take damage at all during that fight.

badp

@Arperum good news! the keeper's got a 90% penalty to tear delay. I hope you enjoy extremely slow firing

Arperum

@badp I know I'm going to hate that one for a bit once I do get there.

@fredley @Sterno @StrixVaria @murgatroid99 What's your opinion on recruiters in the tech space? I'm meeting with one today about a job. I wasn't going to originally, but figured what the hey, mine aswell get some experience with'em. I don't need the job right now.

fredley

str

Wipqozn

To be clear I was approached by the recruiter on linkedin (huge surprise, happens all the time)

two bugs

15:09

I keep getting bugged by recruiters, basically nonstop

Sterno

@Wipqozn I've never used a recruiter. They seem like they'd be useful if you're having trouble finding jobs, but if there are a ton available then they're probably just costing you money

two bugs

They can be useful but all the ones I know of work on comission

So basically, they're just tried to get you hired. They don't have a big interesting in finding a perfect job for you

Sterno

My wife uses recruiters though and they've ranged from very helpful and actually listening to her about what she wants, versus people who just want to get you any job as fast as possible so they'll get paid, and will actually lie to you about the job

djsmiley2k

@Wipqozn most of them don't know anything about tech

fredley

@Wipqozn Be wary

djsmiley2k

15:11

a few I've met actually know their client and what they want, and can advise you if you fit the job.

Wipqozn

@Sterno Yeah, that's what I figured. The one that approached me is looking for someone for a specific job for a specific company.

fredley

I'm guessing you're not paying them? (You shouldn't be)

djsmiley2k

And yeah, don't pay anything

Wipqozn

@fredley Nope.

fredley

Their motivation is to get you into as highly paid job as possible (since they take a cut of your final salary). This may or may not actually be a good job for you.

If you want to earn as much money as possible regardless of job then it might be a good bet

djsmiley2k

15:12

Or if they are any good...

:D

/me shrugs

Wipqozn

@fredley Interesting. I was just told that by someone else, but I thought it was that they try to get you hired for as little as possible the highest paying job, and they take the difference.

fredley

@Wipqozn No, they take a percentage of final salary

And that percentage is pretty uniform across the industry

MadMAxJr

I had to 'fire' one recruiter. Sent me to interview at a federal building on a federal holiday. Sent me to another interview where they didn't pre-negotiate the expected pay per hour, grossly overbid offending the client. Had to talk to him about why he sent me to a gig under my target pay range to begin with. And the last incident was sending me to a wrong address.

djsmiley2k

And if your in the UK, let me know if you find anywhere good to work :/

o_O

fredley

@Wipqozn Treat them as you would a car salesman when they're talking about the merits of a job - they have no reason to say anything bad ever

MadMAxJr

15:14

What part of the UK? I have a contact in London who does IT contract work.

Wipqozn

@fredley Cool. I'll keep that in mind. BEfore I accept and job ofany kind I'd insist on seeing the company offices, meeting with the team I'd be working wth, as well s my direct superior.

djsmiley2k

Coventry, no i can't relocate

fredley

@Wipqozn Yeah, you can be demanding, and if they get defensive when you do just find another recruiter, there are loads of them around

MadMAxJr

Can't help with that region.

Wipqozn

@fredley Well if things didn't work with this one I just wouldn't btoher with another one.

I didn't go seeking out a recruiter, they approached me.

fredley

15:15

@Wipqozn Check out glassdoor too to get insider 'reviews' of the company

@Wipqozn I'm not sure if our terminology matches. A recruiter is a person at a company who wants to find candidates for jobs at that company.

In that case, pretty much all of them know just enough about tech to still not be useful for screening candidates.

@AshleyNunn A couple of the paper jam amiibo bonuses are fairly powerful. They are free to use, can only use a card from a given figure once in a fight. Most are pretty mundane like '30% more coin drops from enemies' and the animation for the magic sparkles is so long I don't spam this every fight. A few are trump cards to get you outta trouble though. Luigi gave me one that ups his jump damage 50% for the remainder of the fight.

"Unfortunately, I have to inform you that there is a strict "No-cheat" policy at Ubisoft. To not leave any loopholes, the decision was made to apply this policy to all our games, both online and offline."

Ugh

Nate Kerkhofs

So yeah, you guys can close the question I made about Watch_Dogs godmode, since it's against the rules

Some games aren't fun without cheating.

@NateKerkhofs Well, go post this answer.

Chippies

@NateKerkhofs aren't watch_dogs always online?

Sterno

16:51

I can't believe I dialed it back to 16GB of memory

ardaozkal

@Chippies no

Nate Kerkhofs

I just think it's weird that they have such a policy, meanwhile Far Cry has a hidden GodMode flag in their config file

Chippies

@Sterno sounds good, and expensive

ardaozkal

@Sterno woah

Sterno

Undertale really flies on this thing!

Wow.. that's a hell of a power supply.

Chippies

@MadMAxJr bronze though

Powerlord

@Sterno How much did it cost?

ardaozkal

@Powerlord I'd say 3-5k

Sterno

2k

Well, 2.1k

ardaozkal

That... is surprisingly cheap.

MadMAxJr

16:54

Not bad. That i7 will hold up for a longtime.

Chippies

@ardaozkal the only expensive parts in there is i7 and the 980ti

Sterno

Now I just need a 4k monitor

Powerlord

I figured it had to be somewhere in that neighborhood. It reminded me of the 2.5k PC I bought half a decade or more ago.

(well, compared to the then-current stuff)

ardaozkal

@Sterno oh, you don't have a monitor. I included 3 monitors in that price (3-5k) too.

Chippies

@ardaozkal why would you include monitors when you are buying a new pc? he obviously already had monitors

my PC cost ~1700$CAD and that included a monitor though :>

Powerlord

16:57

I'm sorely tempted to replace the video cards in my current PC with a new nVidia 970ish card.

ardaozkal

I use a laptop, I include a monitor price in every build.

Unionhawk

No, everypeople, I'm working with renewable energy, not software per se.

MadMAxJr

I'm waiting on whatever next gen Nvidia tech in the pipe drops so I can watch the 900 series drop a hundred in price.

Chippies

@ardaozkal you could buy a monitor and use it with the laptop until you build a PC

ardaozkal

@Unionhawk Renewable Energy for powering... UFOs?

Chippies

16:58

@Powerlord unless you really hate AMD, the 390 is a better option, especially if you plan on going above 1080p

performance on r9 390 is very similar to 970 and it has 4.5gb more vram

for same price or less

Q: How much bonus experience do massacres grant?

In Diablo 3 (PC) the patch 2.4.0 modified the way massacre bonuses worked to give a multiple of the experience you gain from kills during the massacre, instead of some flat amount. The bonus lists something like "1.5x bonus experience!" Does this mean I get an additional 50% experience for those...

Powerlord

@Chippies I haven't exactly had the best experiences with ATI cards in the past.

ardaozkal

UNI IS WORKING WITH ALIENS: DATA ACCEPTED

Powerlord

...and you can tell how long it's been since I used their cards since this was before ATI became part of AMD.

Chippies

16:59

@Powerlord are you referring to experiences from 10 years ago?

Powerlord

(well, at least before they started using the AMD brand name)

Chippies

because that seems to be the case with most people that have had bad experience with AMD/ATI
