    Where to Find a Shovel in Pathologic 3 for Completing and Solving Missions

    As you progress through the complex story of Pathologic 3, you get the chance to save lives, make tough choices, and change the future of the town. From the start of the game, once you unlock time travel, you encounter several characters who need help from Daniil Dankovsky.

    Rubin is one of these characters, and he requires a lot of assistance. If you manage to save him on Day 3, he will tell you to meet him again the next day. However, trying to do this is a mistake because he has been buried alive.

    How to Save Rubin on Day 4

    The first step is to save Rubin’s life on Day 3. This allows him to survive into Day 4, when he faces danger again. When you wake up on Day 4, talk to Grace at the Stillwater to learn about a person who is buried alive in the graveyard. Naturally, this is Rubin. You need to go to the graveyard immediately—timing is crucial. If you wait too long, Rubin will already be dead.

    When you reach the graveyard, go to the southeast corner of the map. There, you’ll see a fresh grave with a bell on top.

    • If the bell is ringing, it means Rubin is still alive and can be dug out. You’ll need a shovel for this.
    • If the bell is silent, Rubin has died, and you’ll need to restart the day to try again. Restarting costs no Amalgam, so it’s safe to do.

    It’s a good idea to handle this quest early in the day. Completing more quests earlier means you’ll start the next day with more time to focus on saving Rubin. If you save him as the last task, you might find yourself with very little time.

    Where to Find a Shovel

    Luckily, the shovel is easy to find—it’s in the graveyard. It’s leaning against a building near the entrance. After picking it up, it will stay in your inventory for the rest of the game.

    US Flight Delays Exceed 4,300 Amid 27-Day Government Shutdown

    The U.S. experienced a significant increase in air travel disruptions on Monday, with over 4,300 flights delayed nationwide after more than 8,800 delays the previous day. The rise in delays coincided with a surge in absenteeism among air traffic controllers, as the federal government shutdown marked its 27th day.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) highlighted staffing shortages impacting flights across the Southeast and at Newark Airport in New Jersey. Additionally, the FAA implemented a ground stop at Austin Airport in Texas and a ground delay program at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, resulting in an average delay of 18 minutes per flight.

    On Sunday, Southwest Airlines reported 47% of its flights delayed, totaling 2,089 flights. American Airlines experienced 1,277 delays, representing 36% of its flights. United Airlines had 27% of its flights delayed, amounting to 807 flights, while Delta Air Lines reported 21% delays, or 725 flights, according to FlightAware, a flight-tracking service.

    Approximately 13,000 air traffic controllers and 50,000 Transportation Security Administration officers are working without pay. The Trump administration warned that flight disruptions could worsen as controllers are set to miss their first full paycheck on Tuesday.

    As of 5 p.m. ET (2100 GMT) Monday, the delay rates stood at 24% for Southwest, 18% for American, and 13% for Delta, based on FlightAware data.

    A Department of Transportation official noted that 44% of Sunday’s delays were due to controller absences, a sharp increase from the usual 5%.

    The growing number of delays and cancellations is fueling public frustration and increasing pressure on lawmakers to resolve the budget impasse. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy met with controllers in Cleveland on Monday, and the National Air Traffic Controllers Association plans events at various airports on Tuesday to highlight the issue of controllers missing their paychecks.

    The FAA is currently short approximately 3,500 air traffic controllers from its targeted staffing levels. Many controllers had been working mandatory overtime and six-day workweeks even before the shutdown began.

    During a 35-day shutdown in 2019, similar staffing shortages led to increased absences among controllers and TSA officers due to missed paychecks, which extended wait times at airport checkpoints and necessitated slowing down air traffic in New York and Washington.
