These sample posts can be about whatever you want, but they should seem like they could have been written by one of our writers. Your favorite related gadgets. Give us a few words about how you think Engadget differs from other technology pubs out there. A few words about yourself. Please note, due to legalities we can’t hire minors. We won’t be using these on the site, we just want to get a sense of how well you can do this stuff. Your contact info. City of residence. How much time per week you can commit to blogging. But be realistic, okay? If it’s less than 40 to 50 hours then you probably shouldn’t bother, and keep in mind we’re looking for folks to be on as much as humanly possible. Any foreign languages you speak. Those fluent in Spanish, German, Japanese, Korean and / or Chinese will be looked fondly upon.
I’d really like to get some good leveling in in Star Wars: The Old Republic — I don’t want to stall out. There was a time long ago when I dropped $60 a month just so that my family could access four Star Wars Galaxies characters on the same server, so I’d say my true limit is somewhere around there. My standards are higher now, but my pockets are fatter. Show me another game worth that much and I’ll pay for it. I’m going to have to get some time in with Ryzom this weekend, hopefully a bit less scattered than last week. Otherwise, I’ll be haunting Star Wars: The Old Republic and Final Fantasy XIV as scheduling permits. Honestly, I’d rather subscribe to two or three different games at once than subscribe to a single game at the same price. For $15 a month, I expect a game to know what it does well and focus on that.
A woman suffering from ‘long Covid’ says that she has trouble brushing her teeth or even showering due to her ongoing symptoms. Long Covid is a mysterious condition in which a person still feels the effects of the virus months after recovery, and Dental Care is affecting a growing number of COVID-19 survivors. Among them is Katrina Haydon, 24, of Washington D.C. Fox News that her Covid infection in June 2021 has ruined her sense of taste and smell. First she experienced anosmia, the loss of her sense of the two senses, and later developed parosmia, where the senses become abnormal. Haydon still suffers from parosmia months later, and reports that some foods taste and smell terrible for her – and even some basic daily tasks such as showering and brushing her teeth can be a problem. Haydon (pictured) said that she struggles with the smell of heat, and that the taste of toothpaste causes a ‘physical reaction’ in her. I used to take a shower more than twice a day regularly, but at least twice a day, and it has been really, really hard for me to make myself shower once a day.
Generally, since March, warriors haven’t changed much at all. It’s hard to properly rate how things like the new Blacksmithing weapons and armor affected the warrior class. Warriors as such a gear dependent class can only benefit from ‘sure’ upgrades, that is to say, upgrades one can quest for, PvP for or craft rather than having to hope for a random drop and then either spending DKP furiously or hope a dice roll goes their way. Mace Specialization in PvP would never have been so attractive without the crafted maces, that’s certain, as Stormherald’s popularity shows us. Certainly in 2007 it’s been easier than ever to get reasonable gear for your warrior, and the move of Arena Season 1 gear to the honor system has been the icing on the cake for warriors looking to get equipment with the least rigid investment of time. Both the craftable gear and the PvP gear affects other classes as well, of course, which is why it’s hard to rate how warriors were affected by it, but in general I’d have to say they were positive changes to the class.
