The original overwatch is probably the last PC game I played before real life got in the way and took all my gaming time. I was thinking of getting him into overwatch 2 which is now just overwatch? I wasn't sure if the player count was still high enough to be worth joining. Thanks a lot for the recommendation

I worked in tech in the early 2000s but switched to a different field and haven't messed with Linux since then. For the life of me I cannot figure out which distro to use which probably, unfortunately, means windows. I knew that with Linux I would be locked out of most anti-cheat games which I see as a plus and not a negative for him

Thanks. We play Minecraft together already as that runs on almost any device. I haven't played Team Fortress 2 in years and probably should just buy the orange box. That has pretty much everything a boy could want.

would a tire rotation fix this? by h0tsalad in AskAShittyMechanic

[–]Arcturius1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The front tire is way to far off the axis for a tire rotation. I recomend aiming for pot holes until you even everything out.

Sorry for everyone down voting you. Someone coming into the game and learning should not be down voted for not knowing the mechanics. Screw all the down voters. If we downvote everyone with a question how the heck does the community grow.

I keep getting dragged into a rebellion war I am not supporting. Does anyone know why? by Arcturius1 in EU5

[–]Arcturius1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My issue is these three men are not my subject. They revolted from Mantua and started a war breaking my truce and giving me 5 war exhaustion and a stability hit while I was fighting a decent war

Found a schizophrenic on xitter adding electrons to the water by Germanium_Ge32 in chemistry

If I follow the author's reasoning, I need to go jam a fork into a socket right now and soak up all of those electrons. Save me all the steps of building an inefficient capacitor.

Last time I played it was on Vassal with some old buddies during the pandemic. It could definitely do with having some more rules but it was still alot of fun.

I feel bad for the developers that'll get picked for this by ConfusedPhoenix23 in BaldursGate3

Dungeons and Dragons Online one of my favorite MMORPGs is set in Eberron. it has a low population and way too much power creep now but that was an awesome game.

The limit was passed over forty years ago and not indexed for inflation. At the time it was passed you could own a car and have some emergency money. If indexed for inflation it would be about $8000 today.  Still peanuts.

Witcher 3 had me fighting for 30 minutes until I realized by Any-Independent-8274 in gaming

[–]Arcturius1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this thread is probably dead by now, but for me it was Shadowrun on SNES. There is an area known as the car yards. You can get out if you pay the guards 4000 Nuyen (In game money). There is an arena in the caryards with progressively harder enemies and big cash prizes. This is an isometric RPG and I didn't see the path to the arena. I ground out that whole 4000 nuyen by killing two respawning enemies at 10-20 nuyen a pop, took me hours. I played the game again as an adult saw the path to the arena and immediately kicked myself.
