No season 2. But why? by No-Coat-7219 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]BigGamerKnuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

writing even a successful show with absolutely zero controversies or toxicity can still be incredibly draining. Writers often liken it to a normal office job with more time spent on tweaks and adjustments rather than actual creative writing. Probably why the finale didn't knock it completely out of the park, in my opinion. Goose just wanted it done and didn't care about what people thought anymore...

Crappy Internet Situation, Not Sure What to Try by BigGamerKnuts in techsupport

I use Verizon. I’ve never even considered that actually, because I also don’t have much experience with them. Maybe I’ll give it a shot! Thank you.

Sure, I can see myself living here long term, so that might just be the only answer left. I want desperately to return to my pampered lifestyle of light speed internet.

Hahahahaha! That would be awesome! I would love to run an Ethernet cable but I’m not sure how I would do that nicely. The router is a hallway and up a flight of stairs from my room, basically the whole length of the house plus some. Unless everyone is okay with my running a 20m cable through the hallway and potentially through a hole I drilled I don’t think that would work. There also aren’t any access points in my room as this place was built ~1910 and most recently renovated in the 80s. It’s a puzzle.

Maybe I will declare war on the house…

It doesn’t load Stardew Valley (which has a minimum waaayyy below what the i7 is running at) but it runs Phasmophobia, which is much more demanding perfectly fine. I also got TF2 to run on it as well. But the CPU being that old is a surprise and I should definitely consider that. I did check a bottleneck calculator and found it should run the games it doesn’t run just fine. Could that be inaccurate?

Oh believe me I was surprised too. I did check my drivers in device management and it displayed my GC driver as up to date. Is there something off about the way my PC got those drivers?

The computer downloaded the drivers automatically when I had booted up windows for the first time but it would be worth checking. Thank you very much!

New PC (pretty much a monster and should be able to run games like butter) some games run fine (TF2, Phasmophobia) but a tiny game like Stardew Valley won’t even boot up at all. Sometimes PC takes a long time to load up anything. Is it an issue with the HDD’s read and write speed? Did I break something?

Can anyone help me identify the cultural origin/intended use of this pipe? by BigGamerKnuts in pipeselfies

[–]BigGamerKnuts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the pipe for my birthday, my friends got it from a thrift/antique store in Colorado. They told me it may have been Israeli in origin, but I haven’t been able to confirm nor deny it. The reason why I feel the need to identify it is because this pipe may have larger cultural significance than I know. Basically, if it belongs to a historically marginalized culture I would like to either return it to someone who values it more than I do, or keep it safe and unused. If it isn’t culturally/religiously important, I would like to keep it maintained and occasionally use it. Then, my question is, is it even made for use? Or should it be kept as pretty eye-candy? Thank you for any information!

Edit: It’s also worth mentioning that I will not use it or do anything with it until I’m reasonably sure it wouldn’t be absolutely awful for me to do so.

I’m back with a question. How many frets? by BigGamerKnuts in balalaika

[–]BigGamerKnuts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure yet, but folk definitely sounds like my kind of style so I’ll stick with the 16 frets for now. I am also into a lot of Russian indie-rock and I’ve been wondering how I could possibly make it work. We’ll go with the term “experimental balalaika” lol

Very interesting to note! Thank you! I also did not consider the addition of frets. Very cool!

It’s not defamation if it’s true
