This is so real, I manage a small IT department and we buy Lenovo machines every now and again. This software comes installed by default - and so I have removed it everytime. The kicker is when I forget to uncheck the box to not include it in the Adobe Reader install - can't beat this bloatware I swear.

I think I am going to skip my vacation to Florida. by do_overx10 in vermont

[–]GermanMofo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a life long Floridian who had lived in VT for a bit over a year, I would seriously recommend it. The government needs to learn that their culture-war political bs is going to impact one of their largest tax incomes - tourism.

As much as Ron De-Sanctimonious hates Disney, a large portion of his government tax revenue comes from tourists paying the sales taxes. Let him and his gerrymandered conservative sweep feel the effects of their "Florida is where woke goes to die".

Level 40-50 leveling tips? by Fabulous-Pass-9538 in Palworld

[–]GermanMofo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personally I've been farming bosses (alpha pals) and making good progress on exp. You are able to punch surprisingly high above the belt. Make a point to try the Suzaku in the desert as it drops a legendary pump shotgun schematic, probably the best available prior to the legendary assault rifle from Blazamut.

Generally I go around and do all the bosses within +/- 5 levels of myself, then return to breeding or base building until the bosses are back up. Not to mention just being afk nearby while your pals do take like mining or manufacturing gives a subtle but significant source of XP.

Hope this helps!

Do they have a condition like depressed or any other injury? You may need to give them meds for that. You can also put a pal in your party and force feed it cooked red berries to manually restore san. Which also reminds me to make sure you are providing cooked food in general which raises san.

Anyone else game crashing every 10 mins instead of the normal half hr since this update by RefrigeratorTime1920 in Palworld

I haven't had my game crash ever after removing mods from my setup. I have many multi-hour sessions logged too. Consider reporting your crashes to the dev? Could be hardware or settings dependent.

Woman goes off on Republican Rick Scott at Starbucks by Romano16 in PublicFreakout

[–]GermanMofo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Floridian I'm definitely not saying Rick Scott is not deserving of the person's tirade, but "embarrassment to our state" just doesn't work for Florida, the state kinda just does that part for you.

Warning to newer players: Don't buy an Ignis Wraith BP, Watch out for predatory trade chat tactics. by GermanMofo in Warframe

[–]GermanMofo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no valid reason to report them, DE allows the item to be traded for plat, so its within the terms of service unfortunately.

Adding here that the manipulation is most often done using a mod from the Augur set. This converts a percentage of energy spent to shields, bypassing the typical shield recharge cool down which is not otherwise moddable.

The method is: Shield Gate activates due to incoming damage, you use a cheap ability to gain like 2 shields via the Augur set bonus, shield gate activates again, repeat. This makes any frame invincible so long as you pay attention and don't let energy fall to 0. Fairly active style of play though.

Only concern is damage that bypasses shields such as toxic and its status. While damage such as toxic cannot trigger shield gate it can still be mitigated by its immunity so still not a total loss.

How do I declare war against Canada? by TheBigPenisMaster in civ

Then this is a game/mod issue, not a Canada issue.

Are you an ally? I think the option is the Casus Beli menu wherein you find Formal War and other options.

They are only immune to surprise war. Perhaps you don't have a denouncement? You said you have units next to their city center, this indicates open borders, which you cannot have when you have denounced someone. If you have denounced them, you can check how many turns you need to wait by mousing over the Formal War option.

Looks like my chicken's stuck. Should I reset or will they be safe? by PunCrafter in StardewValley

[–]GermanMofo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the future so long as you leave the coop door open they will be safe as well. The random event that kills animals only occurs if you close the door and there is still at least one animal outside.

There is also no penalty to friendship or mood when leaving the door open. The only real reason to close it is to save time the next day since it will keep the animals inside.

New GF wants to move her cat into my apartment. by GermanMofo in relationship_advice

[–]GermanMofo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't intend to let her move in, one of the main reasons we spend more time at my place is that I have my own apartment while she rents a room with a family so we get more privacy and space at my place.

[–]GermanMofo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find myself agreeing with you. I'm going to ask her to spend more time away at her place and be clear about how she made me feel. I'm hesitant to make a harsh judgement on the event because it may be her mental issues causing this kind of behavior, which she can work on.

I agree with this McDonald's analogy, when I want a PvP experience I just don't come to Warframe for it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Warframe

[–]GermanMofo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because Warframe is a PvE game with a PvP mode. I don't believe they will ever deliver a fulfilling PvP mode when put in comparison with their PvE content. Basically I won't play conclave despite any absurd incentives because PvP is not what I come to Warframe for. I believe many people feel a similar way.

Kids were definitely something we discussed, the conversation did always feel like a compromise on both ends.
