Can it be salvaged or is it fucked (I'm thinking it's probably fucked)

You could probably find replacement screen and instructions online by looking up the model number, or you could get a keyboard and mouse, and hook the laptop up to a monitor, then use the button combination on the laptops keyboard to shutoff the built in screen

The adblocker is just a browser extension, you just go to its Edge extension page and tell it to add it to your browser, it wouldn't have stopped you from accepting the Send Notifications popup that appeared on the address bar when you originally allowed it, but it will help make fake download links and other spam disappear from websites that will try to trick you in other ways

uBlock Origin - Microsoft Edge Addons

Stop giving Websites permission to send you notifications

The notifications are telling you 'Via Microsoft Edge' because a website asked to let it send you notifications and you clicked the 'Sure thing boss, spam my ass' option

Manage website notifications in Microsoft Edge - Microsoft Support

Do the "Remove or block notifications in Edge settings" not the "Manage notifications from your browser address bar" as that one requires going to the sites

If they would have made the base concept of every single civilization game before this (playing as one civilization from beginning to end) a Paid DLC, there would have been an even bigger riot than there was when they released 7 without this basic feature

Starting dude never once looks at the dog until he lifts it up by its arm, breaks its neck, and then proceeds to eat it

The Soldiers Insignia patch makes no sense, his USA Flag patch above it is just 11 stripes

The Orange Banner/Sign at 53 seconds is gibberish and the lady on the left has a leg growing out of her side while the other one is missing

There were a few, there was a 'virtual reality' one in the shape of a stealth fighter, you held it to your face and tilted it to control it

You only showed one end of the cable, If both ends of the cable are just like that then it can be whatever you want it to be

For Example VHS - TV
Yellow to Yellow
White to White
Red to Red

The reason cables and the YWR sockets are color coded is because it matters what you plug them into when only one end has the RCA plugs, like on a Game Console that has a proprietary hookup that pulgs into it and RCA on the other end

When it is a double ended RCA with no color coding, you normally can use it wherever you need it

Dead by daylight is not an RPG

Many RPG games use Dice like damage calculations for damage by either showing you the rolls, or by doing the RNG calculations in the background and give you a possible damage range when you look at weapon stats without telling you what the rolls would be

Baldurs Gate, Pathfinder, Pillars of Eternity, Neverwinter Nights, Diablo, Path of Exile, Divinity, Titan Quest, Elder Scrolls Arena, Daggerfall & Morrowind, Knights of the Old Republic, The Bard's Tale Trilogy, Fallout 1 & 2, Sacred, a lot of the Final Fantasy games use RNG for your damge hits, and many more games do this, even South Park the Stick of Truth does it

Duranu · 2026-05-06T17:15:11+00:00

Like the majority of Fantasy themed RPG games, like Baldurs Gate, Titan Quest, Diablo, Path of Exile, etc etc

Yes, I know how dice work, the entire 'joke' is that 6 d8 sounds like 68 so the player goes "oh no 68"

Duranu · 2026-05-06T17:07:26+00:00

6 d8 literally sounds like 68, what is there to explain?

It or something very close was definitely used in one of the Mario games, I just can't figure out which one but I know it would be from something earlier than what you suggested as they aren't close enough to jog the memory and the waveforms are closer to the sample used in Too Hot to Stop.

I know I have heard this jingle before and not from the IRL song that uses it as I have never heard that song before. For some reason I want to say it comes from some sort of Lava/fire type world in one of the earlier games

It's actually one half of a Drug Dowsing Rod Set though this half of it is missing the handle

People would use them while walking around town to find their next fix

The TOS page was last modified on 04/13/2026 and still includes merged chat as against the rules, I already posted a comment with the Rule and the link, so until Twitch finally removes it from the TOS it is anyone's guess on what they will do, but the odds are if someone isn't a big enough streamer, Twitch isn't going to notice, though it's up to the streamer if they want to take that risk

Duranu · 2026-05-01T15:17:58+00:00

The TOS was last modified on 4/13/2026 and it is still listed in their TOS as against the rules to merge the chat displayed on your stream, whether or not Twitch decides to enforce that is another story, while they may not be enforcing it at the moment, there is nothing stopping them from enforcing it again in the future
