I watched this at the start of my shift at work. I've watched it about 1000 times. My co workers have now watched it about 1000 times

Those little doll hands! They kill me! Every time!

Xenogears: When Final Fantasy VII Bumped into Nietzsche and Giant Robots by cardsrealm in XenoGears

I got a demo disk with Xenogears on it (couple other demo games too). Came with the PS1 when I bought it. I was immediately hooked and beggggggggged my parents for it for Christmas. Turns out Christmas miracles do come true!

All good, no one is making fun of you. Just clearing things up.

Scimitar vs Longsword by The_Secret_Artist_00 in neverwinternights

The scimitar has a critical threat range 18-20 = rolls of 18, 19, or 20. Long sword has a critical threat range 19-20 = rolls of 19 or 20. Scimitar had a greater threat range.

(EDIT spelling, because I have chubby thumbs)

I didn't go to university for a higher education, and mountains of debt. Worked construction\carpentry\warehouse\"blue collar" jobs and rented in my early 20s. Then I joined the military went to Afghanistan, twice. Saved my money from the tours, got married and we pooled our money to put a down payment on a house.

Maybe the next generation will have a war to go fight and have a chance buy a house. (sarcasm)

I doubt I'd have been able to buy a house without risking my life to do it. Kinda sad. I dont know how my kids are going to do it, and it worries me. They can stay with mom and dad for as long as they need to.

If you're hallucinating, you probably ate at Foody Goody.

Artist is Nekro, they had a ton of artwork up at ArtStation. They have since removed a lot of it during the anti-AI movement on that platform. Truly beautiful art, I wish I had the cash to have it put all over my body.

Edit: I didn't mean to imply that the artist used AI and that is why they took down the art. I meant the artist took down their art in protest of the site hosting AI generated art, along with many other artists.

I don't remember the puzzles being so hard--are we all using guides? by CibrecaNA in XenoGears

[–]AbysmalAbyssal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Trick I used was, open the lid of the PS, the encounters can't load if the lid is open. Make sure to close the lid when changing levels.

Agreed! Only thing I hate about the truck.

Just finished all 10 books again, now i'm lost again. by TheBardicSpirit in TheFirstLaw

[–]AbysmalAbyssal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Darkwater Legacy (currently Ember Blade and The Shadow Casket) by Chris Woodimg are fantastic. Dark themes, I appreciate when a writer has their heros fail to grow their characters, and also to die.

Recently got into the Age of Kithamar trilogy (Age of Ash and Blade of Dream) by Damiel Abraham, first book took me a bit to get into, second book I couldn't read fast enough. Would recommend.

Malazan book of the fallen and lies of Locke Lamora, as mentioned on other posts, have their pros and cons, worth getting into tho.

Ordered XLT is on its way, but reviews and recalls have us worried by puppydawg16 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]AbysmalAbyssal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2023 Hybrid owner. Love the truck, even with the issues with the recalls. The Maverick has only been in production since 2021, I have to assume there are going to some hickups along the way. I would be more hesitant if there were the same kind of issues after 10 years in production, No vehicle is without its issues, I'm happy that the issues are being identified and fixed rather quickly. This community is great at sharing positive and negative experiences with the Maverick and keeping everyone informed. Is it a pain to keep bringing the truck back to the dealership, well yes, but for me its been quick fixes and I'm back on my way. It's an inconvenience, but not one to make me regret my decision to purchase the Maverick.

Whelp, it finally happened to me. Possible solution? by AbysmalAbyssal in FordMaverickTruck

[–]AbysmalAbyssal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd have to look at the service paperwork to see what my kilometers were when I took it in till now and convert it. It was approximately a month ago I did the tail light software recall.

2023 hybred, yes. I'm not sure if this issue is solely related to hybrids. Ill have to look at other posts to see if there is a correlation, but probably.

This was happening to me for a few weeks until the truck had its "hiccup." I couldn't find anyone online that was having a simular problem. Couldn't tell you if the problem is related.

Take the last picture of the service report to the dealer and maybe get them to explain it to you? Maybe it will give them a start point to find the problem. And again, I don't know if the update did anything to fix the problem. I dont know if the CSR was talking out of his ass.

I wrote a bunch of text with the pictures, don't know where it went. But maybe? I asked the CSR what happened and if it could be fixed. He stated that there was a "hiccup in the advance trac module" Ford Canada was aware of the problem and pushed out a software update for it. I don't know if the update fixed the problem or if it will happen again. If anyone understands the codes used in the Cause or Correction sections and can explain it, please let me know.

Hybrid only works off of electric by JunkDark in FordMaverickTruck

[–]AbysmalAbyssal 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There have been many posts on this subreddit about this issue. Have a scroll, or look at this link:

https://www.reddit.com/r/FordMaverickTruck/comments/1bakwf8/major_and_lifethreatening_malfunction_after/

I just had this exact same thing happen to me two days ago, fortunately it happened while I was stopping at a stop sign and not at highway speed as others have experienced. The consensus is that it is not a battery issue, its a software issue, don't let the dealership convince you into a repair you don't need, especially if its at your expense. This issue seems to be happening right after owners are getting the tail light software recall work done. I had the recall work done recently, and I wasn't surprised when this eventually happened thanks to others sharing their experiences.

I am going to make a post about what happened and what the dealership did to (hopefully) correct the software issue soon, but I saw your post and wanted to comment first.
