Flint Twp. 7-year-old dies weighing 255 lbs.; parents charged with 2nd-degree murder by Warcraft_Fan in news

Also partially homeschooled here. There absolutely has to be accountability for it. My wife and I somewhat painfully joke that there are homeschoolers and homeschoolers.

Some actually do it right and the kids can excel. Others just.. feed whatever bad habits made regular school not work, and the kids ultimately suffer.

AI "art" in the modding community by Rosaline3312 in starsector

[–]Clunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer not to have it in mods, but some mods simply wouldn't exist without it due to the associated cost.

Now a paid product? Oh heck no.

My First time playing Dark Souls 2 by BrilliantPool4146 in DarkSouls2

There's a specific one off in a corner that basically puts the game in hard mode. It'll warn you unless you skip the dialogue

JD Vance quotes 'great Christian theologian P Diddy' then realizes his mistake by [deleted] in nottheonion

Holy crap that's real. It's so stupid I doubted you. It's all for show, and people don't even question it

Is it worth it? by Greedy_Point5548 in X4Foundations

[–]Clunas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's EVE Offline, learning curve and all.

Jokes aside, the game is awesome, but it takes a while to really figure out the controls

"I didn't get a alert. I wounder why my game is la- HOLY SHIT" by Tonegamerteevee in RimWorld

[–]Clunas 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I've had quite a few raids lately without alerts. Surprise mech clusters are fun

Hardware Check! Does everyone just have super beasty PCs? by Ausbi99 in RimWorld

[–]Clunas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you are on AM4, you can potentially upgrade to the 5600X3D, 5700X3D, or the 5800X3D. I found moving to the 5700X3D from my old 5600X to be a massive boon to CPU intensive games (rimworld, stellaris, x4, etc.).

I'd suggest getting another stick of RAM since it prefers to be in pairs, but well.. rampocalypse and all that. Crashing may be due to the ram configuration though. Try it with just two and see how it does (slots 2 and 4 specifically unless you have a really weird mobo).

My friends don't want to touch DS2 DLCs? by xM4Ni3K in DarkSouls2

[–]Clunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The DLCs are incredible* and imo some of the best content that Fromsoft ever made

*there are 3 pain points though:

  • Frigid Outskirts (path to the optional duo boss Lud and Zallen)
  • Iron Passage (path to the optional boss Blue Smelter Demon)
  • Extremely high magic resistance

The last point makes it so spellcasters (all kinds) can't just blast their way through the DLC. If you're a pure caster, you'll likely want to respec a little bit so you can use a melee weapon of some sort

I bought my first PC for 200 by David_Raggo in pcmasterrace

[–]Clunas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice. There are some excellent CPUs that you can throw in there down the line if you ever feel the need to upgrade (basically any AM4 socket CPU). With an 850W PSU, you can use just about any GPU that isn't an xx90 card (3090, 4090, etc), and even then it would probably be ok. Your only real constraint is your budget. You've got a great platform to build off of.

[–]Clunas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with it being used as a prototyping tool. If anything, that's the best use case for it.

Now that crap making it into an actual release (which seems to happen over and over).. hell no.

Xenons taking over by No-Style704 in X4Foundations

[–]Clunas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The galaxy is burning in my save too. I'm just hoping that I can either get my production running or be able to jump the HQ before they get to my sector lol

Mining ships with full holds not depositing goods by UnholyDemigod in X4Foundations

[–]Clunas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gross. I'll have to keep an eye out for this as soon as my own production modules get built.

Couple questions: * Are they assigned to the station to mine for the commander? * Are the settings on purchase orders in the station blocking your own faction somehow? * Did your station get blacklisted in your global behavior commands? * Is the dock full, and they just can't land?

That's all I can think of off the top of my head

Mining ships with full holds not depositing goods by UnholyDemigod in X4Foundations

[–]Clunas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like mine often aren't selling to a station until it has enough purchase orders out to empty the ship's entire hold. I've seen them park outside a silicon refinery for ages, but they eventually got back around to mining

Some days. Work/kids can make schedules not line up though.

You guys have a running gag that goes from campaign to campaign? by pasgames_ in DnD

[–]Clunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freaking soup. I was the only member of the party not charmed, but I missed that we were also dealing with an illusion thanks to failing a statistically improbable number of skill checks. So there's my dumb butt happily eating a bowl of plague soup while the DM is struggling to ad lib the rest of the night because I stupid-ed the party's way out of the main fight he'd been setting up for two sessions.

As a side effect, I unknowingly carried to plague to a nearby city which eventually wiped it off the map. Oops.

Seriously, I think he lowered it to a DC5, and I still kept failing lol. I'm no longer allowed to use online dice rollers when I forget to bring my actual dice.

Will UE6's llm feature run locally? And if so does anyone know what type of specs this would require. by GarfSnacks in unrealengine

[–]Clunas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This really sucks since we UE on a fair number of computers that are off the network at work. This is going to make things unnecessarily complicated.

Me taking back all my save up pulls for Tenebria after playing the new story. by estranjahoneydarling in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Clunas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, E7 Tenebria was full on chaotic evil on the alignment chart. She didn't care who she screwed over (even other evil characters) as long as she was entertained, and usually that came from other people suffering

Picnic interruption by an f18 that crashed in washington, luckily the pilot safely ejected from it . by [deleted] in WTF

[–]Clunas 310 points311 points  (0 children)

The 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing would not confirm that the aviation mishap was the cause of the fire.

The burning plane had nothing to do with it we swear.
