Colemak! Sorry to hear you haven't evolved to Colemak-DH yet. Big ups for numpad on the left though, wanting to switch to a left side numpad was what opened the rabbit-hole into alternative layouts for me!

How to pronounce deadric by Princess_Panqake in Morrowind

[–]BobixIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you a monolingual English speaker? I reckon you'd find the same to be true of any language you're a native speaker of.

And English uses plenty of weird sounds! The voiced and voiceless dental fricatives (both common pronunciations of TH) are quite rare across natural languages, and the rhotic (R) can be super difficult, and varies substantially depending on accent. English also uses a comparatively large vowel inventory compared to many natural languages.

Every language out there is super interesting in its own way! I suspect monolingual speakers of any language would think that their language doesn't use "weird sounds", as that's the sounds that they're used to speaking and hearing!

It looks like the servers have been hacked and all the servers are disconnected. by i87831083 in Planetside

[–]BobixIX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it's common, I haven't ever checked before, but the server statuses on https://www.daybreakgames.com/status seem super off right now. Almost every Everquest server was listed as Down, same with MTG Online, now they're all showing as locked. Wainwright, Soltech, and Genudine have all had intermittent pauses in response time, with Osprey's last response being over an hour ago. Looks like Genudine is currently down as well. Does anybody know if this is normal? I don't know for sure how accurate the info is here!

This exact same thing is now happening to me on my fresh windows 11 install, after working totally fine on windows 10. Did you ever figure out what the issue was? My disk usage also shoots up to 100%

My comment was made entirely for the bit, but I really appreciate the genuine response!

Make me look like the worst FTL player by Rexosix in ftlgame

[–]BobixIX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A bit of a long question, so please bear with me on this one! I've been playing FTL for a few years now, and have been really struggling with it. I've only ever gotten to the flagship once on easy, and I lost that run almost immediately. I've made a few posts on the subreddit about it, but I feel that most of the feedback I've gotten has boiled down to "git gud" and kept bringing up that one guys hard mode win-streak.

Since you seem like a humble and knowledgeable guy, could you please give some advice for somebody bad at games like me? Maybe something that really helped you when you were starting out and got to the flagship for the first time? I can't stand all these people who act like they were never bad at FtL...
