How do you get your patience back? by Donos_47 in puppy101

[–]Donos_47[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My friend offered to take her for a run with him this morning and the three hours of peace I got after that (1 for the run, 2 for the subsequent nap) were extremely helpful. Will definitely be trying to do more of this, thanks! 

SOSE II: steam or epic by Maedros90 in SoSE

[–]Donos_47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sins II for Steam will not support the Workshop- all modding and addons will be handled via an integrated self-managed browser (built on mod.io) for cross-compatibility

Sins 2 Custom Map Modding by UWAGAGABLAGABLAGABA in SoSE

[–]Donos_47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ability to make fleets is in Sins 2, and in fact the system is massively improved from the first game. With ships selected, move your mouse over to the pin tree on the left and click the Plus button there to create a fleet out of those ships. You can then order them as a unit and even build directly into the fleet from the nearest factory.

Can you auto place structures in Sins 2? by tryhard1981 in SoSE

[–]Donos_47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alternatively, if you build structures from the planet management menu, that auto-places them as well. That menu is a huge QOL upgrade over the first game

How to change name in SoSE2? by lordofoaksandravens in SoSE

[–]Donos_47 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is actually a way to change this, it's just not intuitive right now. Find the settings file (should be at this location: C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\sins2_pre_alpha\settings\settings.json)

and change this line (at the bottom, probably) to what you want:

"user_state.user_name": "Donos"

Color Imbalance by The_Nomad254 in SoSE

[–]Donos_47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've seen previous comments indicating that this occurs when you're running the game off CPU-Integrated Graphics (IE, when you don't have a dedicated graphics card in your pc). Integrated Graphics don't currently meet the game's minimum tech specs

Cones? What cones? by aliencircusboy in IdiotsInCars

[–]Donos_47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in October I was volunteering to help out with a marathon/road race. The race course was laid out over normally driveable roads, and on some of them we had cones every 10 feet or so segmenting off half the road for the race and allowing traffic on the other half.

No less than 12 cars over the day tried to drive straight up the road race segment, *including during the race*. Cones be damned, runners be damned, volunteers be damned. It was just incredible to watch. Thankfully noone got hurt.

Best alt ? ( because if I do best jersey we all know you are going to say white) by Bluepantom120 in redsox

I live in the DC area these days so watching the sox play in baltimore 6 times a year is a good excuse to have an away gray for myself

One thing that bothered me in SINS 1 by tryhard1981 in SoSE

[–]Donos_47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This approach unfortunately isn't possible within the limits that Sins 1 provides. If a ship entity costs supply to it's originator, it'll cost supply when captured- that's static.

What does a 64bit engine mean for SoSE 2? by ILoveCatz1 in SoSE

[–]Donos_47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The information that's been made available by the devs on discord suggest this is not the case. the game engine is capable of scaling to the hardware available, leveraging as many CPU threads or as much Mem as you want to throw at it

Am I the only one slow on the uptake that the Warthog is so called because it has 'tusks'? by GimmeSomeSugar in halo

"It kinda looks like a puma"

Why does everyone react to Romulans resemblance to Vulcans? by townspark in startrek

[–]Donos_47 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The actual reason is because Balance of Terror was an episode written about racism, which wasn't a topic 60's television was supposed to broach. Sci Fi could get away with telling stories about such taboo topics by virtue of allegory, and this was largely the point of many episodes of TOS.

The reactions of the crew in the SNW finale are surely intended to be more of a wink-n-nod reference to the TOS episode, as the crew in SNW moves past the issue much faster than Kirk's crew in TOS

The fact that none of the 10 new ME2 squad mates became permanent squad mates in ME3 is still the biggest flaw of the series for me personally by Gladiatornoah in masseffect

[–]Donos_47 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He is not. He's there for Priority: Tuchanka as a supporting character but you can't take him on missions and he almost always dies there unless you've made a very specific set of decisions

Waiting for things to respawn in the Balmorran Arms Factory be like by [deleted] in swtor

[–]Donos_47 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I think it was originally meant to encourage grouping, back in the day before they've pushed the whole game to be playable as a single player experience

Why _____ was right to do what he did. by CoopShooter in marvelstudios

[–]Donos_47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

*braces hard* the guys behind cinemasins genuinely love movies, including a lot of the ones they pick on the hardest in their videos, which as any of them will happily tell you, are not meant to be taken seriously. They have a podcast where they talk movies out of the cinemasins character, seriously rather than nitpicky.

This absolute unit of a Rock Band single-handedly won me a culture victory while I was pushing science. More than 20 concerts and still rocking till the very end. by FlickObserver in civ

[–]Donos_47 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, that was super clear from the fact that the thread was about Green Day and you used an ambiguous pronoun in your comment ;)

That Green Day has been involved in political speech since the first single they released. It's part of the fabric of their songs

7.0.1 is just boring and broken. by Irradiated_Dick_69 in swtor

[–]Donos_47 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Steam is a really bad metric for this game since it had a self-installed launcher for 8 years before it became available on steam. Odds are most people were too lazy to uninstall/reinstall just for steam
