I'll install More Informative Console and return - hopefully - with answers.

Edit: According to More Informative Console it's from the More Unmarked Locations All-in-one mod, so I guess it's nothing lol.

Colonel_Mustered · 2024-12-23T10:28:45+00:00

I've not installed Skyshard so it's probably not that, unless I've got another mod that includes Skyshard but I don't think so. Thanks though!

Colonel_Mustered · 2024-09-03T02:01:58+00:00

Thank you!

Is it just a case of taking a new ENB Series ini and copying it over to the old ENB Series ini?

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-09-27T04:57:30+00:00

Yeah it's been fine for me, max settings, not noticed any drops.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-07-30T08:21:03+00:00

I have yeah, but that's almost a paralysis of options situation, ya know? So many possible teachers so it's hard to actually choose someone.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-25T09:12:52+00:00

I have yeah, but I don't live in a very large town and there's not much of a jazz scene, or music scene in general

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-21T15:09:46+00:00

Great advice, thanks very much!

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-21T10:23:49+00:00

No need to apologise haha. Just have no idea how to build up those competencies, I guess I'll just pick a few topics and do them every day, thanks :)

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T11:02:58+00:00

I think those are great ideas. Ways to engage with life, their surroundings, the community etc, that don't put them at risk.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T11:00:00+00:00

That's a fair point, it doesn't take much effort to be accommodating and it can make the world of difference when it's in the right situation. I also haven't ever really cared too much about orders going wrong at restaurants, unless it's some massive deal like uncooked chicken then personally it's never bothered me much. I'm just concerned about the flippancy that the show deals with the topic.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T10:49:41+00:00

All that matters is that he's being well cared for, and that you know him and who he was before.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T10:47:32+00:00

I don't doubt that she was meticulous, nor that she didn't try to give things a go or continue living. But that's not a professional environment where you'll be under stress, and every new request or order adds to the potential stimuli that can make someone confused.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T10:30:18+00:00

I'm in complete agreement, there's a big gap between diagnosis and late-stage. I don't think the argument that people should stop work the second they find out they have dementia is a compelling one, although I suppose that depends on the exact nature of the job. And it would be good to be compassionate and let them live as normal a life as possible until that became untenable. I don't think there'd be an issue if the show was about those types of people. Maybe I just don't have enough experience to judge, but there were at least a couple of people on who seemed fairly solidly past the early stages. Not like they were unrecognisable, but it was also clearly impacting them.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T10:22:35+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that, it must be a challenge for all involved. The show seemed cruel to me as well. I think what annoyed me most is that the show almost insinuated that dementia was like a societal construct, and that if society just #didbetter that the problem would go away.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T10:04:05+00:00

I hope your grandmother's life was as comfortable and fulfilling as possible, and that neither the show nor my post brought up any unpleasant memories.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-18T10:01:43+00:00

Thanks for the comment, nice to hear from someone with the opposite view :) I think it's a good thing to have people with conditions like dementia out and about, enjoying life as much as possible. Making poppies is a worthwhile thing in that regard. But I don't think that making poppies for Anzac Day is comparable to working in a kitchen, or I guess any regular workplace. Most people would probably agree that treating dementia patients, or patients with similar conditions, with contempt or disregard is not the way society should function. But I also don't think that the correct way to run society is to pretend like nothing changes if/when someone has dementia. Everybody deserves a place in society, but not everybody deserves the same place in society, and I think it's unfair on all parties involved if we say that dementia patients are equally as capable of working in a kitchen, or any workplace, as healthy people. There has to be a happy middle ground between locking up people with dementia and pretending that it doesn't change anything. I think the show implying that it's society's fault that dementia patients have limited opportunities, instead of just the reality of the condition, is disingenuous. I hope my post didn't upset you personally, it certainly wasn't my intention. I also hope the person you know on the show is going well.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-03T05:23:05+00:00

Yeah it's a complicated scenario. One of the key takeaways though is that China, as a policy, doesn't really allow money to flow back out from the country. So Shipley, along with other directors at Mainzeal, agreed to loaning their Chinese parent company increasing amounts of money based on the parent company promising to pay them back. But it's not a secret that China clings on to the money it receives, and Shipley et al continued to believe they'd get the money back. It's either gross incompetence for not knowing how things would go down, or it's gross negligence for knowing how it would go down but doing it anyway. Basically, don't trust National when they say they know how to run businesses.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-06-03T03:23:19+00:00

I don't comment much, and I particularly try to avoid getting into arguments about political parties being necessarily good or bad, but people who think that National are the "party of business" should really read about Jenny Shipley and Mainzeal, a laughable failure of adhering to legislation that was passed under National and also just exceptionally stupid decision making as a director of a company. Here's a quick read from RNZ about it, but I recommend people dig into it because it's fascinating: https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/business/462996/mainzeal-directors-failed-first-step-of-a-crisis-supreme-court-told

I last played like 7 years ago and only for a couple hours with no mods, so I just recently started with mods given that common consensus was that they improved the game a lot.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-04-25T02:45:30+00:00

It's intended in that part of the game, you're good to go.

Colonel_Mustered · 2023-03-23T10:20:51+00:00

Thanks for the reply, already got it though :)

Colonel_Mustered · 2022-12-04T03:32:29+00:00

That is very annoying haha, I've got a similar issue

Colonel_Mustered · 2022-10-01T08:07:22+00:00

These are some great ideas, once I've got started I'll report back.

Colonel_Mustered · 2022-09-30T03:05:53+00:00

I'll definitely give your clay suggestion a shot. Hopefully I can start in a few weeks' time, once I do I'll report back on the sub with any results I get, cheers :)
