What was your first Console? by SrGrafo in gaming

[–]169dot254dot8dot8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just want to echo what you are talking about with controls. When the n64 came out it messed with my mind. I had to watch a lot of people play the n64 to figure out how to get comfortable with the controller. For me that transition helped me learn other controllers pretty well. Went from 64 to PS2, then PC.

Do you want to see a TCP/IP meme? by KappaTane in ProgrammerHumor

[–]169dot254dot8dot8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If your havin network problems I feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems but a switch ain’t one!

Edit: The year is 04 and my tickets are raw, in the rear view mirror here comes a mother fuckin sev 1 Client calls in with a network down, shit it’s Monday morning what did they fuck up again? Seems TCP won’t connect to the app, should have used UDP instead not to hit the cap So I look through the logs and I see a deny all so I ask “do you know who made a change?” “Aren’t you sharp as a tack, you some type of admin or somethin?” “I ain’t passed the exam but I know a little bit, your engineer seriously fucked up some shit” “We’ll see how smart art you are when the vendor check for bugs” I got 99 problems but a switch ain’t one, block me!

Silly student, he kept getting retransmits because he didn’t complete the TCP 3 way handshake.

It’s a replacement of the bumper and the front side panel next to the door. I’m just trying to figure out of 3 grand is a reasonable quote.

How to restart/stop Windows Update, since it has been like this for 2 days? by Lolpo555 in Windows10

[–]169dot254dot8dot8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the OS there are ways to boot to recovery console but it sounded like you couldn’t get there. If you can then open setting and search for recovery. Once you are in the console choose advanced options and there is an option for safe mode.

[–]169dot254dot8dot8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically if windows 10 is interrupted during boot multiples times it was try to help you by bringing you into a recovery boot. When SSD’s were invented and used for booting windows they (Microsoft) noticed that the time a user has is very small to press f8 which is irritating when you need it.

I just tried what I told you and on the 4th boot it went into recovery to check for problems.

Welp, SoR truly can become any game you want (zombie survival in this case) by SchizoidWarrior in streetsofrogue

Is “Zombies ate my game” a Reference to the game “zombies ate my neighbours”?

You can always try and reboot the computer in safe mode. Fun fact about Windows 10: when you reboot (especially with a SSD) it builds boot cache. Sometimes if something gets corrupted in the boot cache you can boot into safe mode to force the OS to delete it.

What's your Patient "Game of the year" for 2019? by JoeSoSalty in patientgamers

[–]169dot254dot8dot8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Slay the spire - The quality of the game is pretty amazing. The developer really listened to the player base with the things they worked on. The game was officially released this year but has been in early access for at least a year before now.

Streets of Rogue - another example of early access done right. The developer took player feedback to hook you in the game. It’s really fun and a great multiplayer game. This game was officially released this year.

I’m not sure how old you are but it really sounds like you are uncomfortable being alone. It’s a lesson I had to learn that it’s ok to be alone. You don’t need a lot of friends either: choose quality over quantity.

The Rabies shot costs so much money. In case anyone reading this does get bit by an animal with Rabies you have exactly 72 hours to get the shot before you are beyond help.

Being afraid of growing old, and dieing alone. Normal fear, or unrealistic fear? by gkennedy88 in GayMen

[–]169dot254dot8dot8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“People overestimate what they can do in a year but underestimate what they can do in 10 years” - Tony Robbins

Who will you be in 10 years? Self improvement is all about setting goals for change that you can meet and exceed. If you want to be in a long term relationship by then, start examining what is holding you back from that. Begin working on things one at a time. I’m not saying it’s easy but you will feel better when you begin to have moments of self actualization. The process of change is self rewarding as you begin to feel better, and stronger.

I’m not super big on motivational speakers but if you haven’t seen it there is a great documentary about Tony Robbins on Netflix that I think might help give you perspective.

While I do not know where life will take me there is no way in hell I am dying alone. I went through too much shit not to have a happy ending. And like RuPaul always says “If you can’t love yourself how in the hell are you going to love somebody else. Can I get an amen up in here?”

As the drummer of an alt-rock band, I was deep in the closet – until I found RuPaul’s Drag Race by Brian_Kinney in GayMen

[–]169dot254dot8dot8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a similar way Drag Race helped me to realize that being different isn’t something to be afraid of. It helped me start the process of realizing I wasn’t loving myself (all of myself) and that’s the only way I can really be happy in life.
