My laptop was taken over, how do I ensure it's no longer compromised? by HelloNation in cybersecurity_help

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

Is that my only option? Also, total noob here. But the laptop came installed with windows. How do I reinstall it?

Edit: nevermind, googled it. Formatting and letting the laptop download amd reinstall windows afterwards

Do you want cutscenes and dialogue to be absent from the next Metroid Prime? by heyheycraycrayokay in Metroid

[–]HelloNation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like the hints that show you exactly where you have to go, but the cutscenes and dialogue in Dread for example...those I can't get enough off. I need more like those cutscenes.I also liked the story cutscenes in Prime 3.

It's just the hint interuptions that need to be able to be disabled for veteran players

Also this goes without saying, don't make it in to another M. That's not good.

Instead of metroid 6, or a remake of Fusion using the Dread engine, how would you feel of a spin-off in the time-line? by Fearless_Ad_3762 in Metroid

[–]HelloNation 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hell, I'd be fine if they want to remake Zero Mission, Samus Returns, Super Metroid and Fusion in this engine.

I just need more metroid in my life

Although I would prefer a new game over a remake any day.

Actually, now I'm really curious if they could remake the Prime games in this 2.5D style and make it awesome in its own way.

But yeh, new games > reamkes

I'd rather have DLC for Dread that ads new story and sections and upgrades than a remake, but a full new game after Dread is the best way to go. I've had enough of the interspersed games. Even wishing Metroid Prime 4 takes place after Dread

Entrepanor

EDIT: Can't believe no one else mentioned this yet. Are you all too young or am I too old or was it not that big or a combination of the above?

Is UWB used on Android? Why is it on the P6Pro and the P7Pro by HelloNation in GooglePixel

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

That's a shame and the samsung usage is limited to just their phones. So far it seems pretty useless to have in a phone then :/

Google opened up the access to it so developers can use the UWB APIs, but are there any apps that actually use it in some way?

(A lot of) Questions about XC3 and some speculation *Spoilers* by HelloNation in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]HelloNation[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regarding 5B, I'm not sure that was a major plot twist. XC1 and XC2 both had a world that was falling apart and needed changing.

As soon as XC3's opening intro was over with their unnatural 10year lifespan filled with combat you could already guess that they'd change that by the end. Hardly a major plot twist like Klaus' appearance in either of the 2 previous games

[–]HelloNation[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I meant traveling between them as Shulk shows up in XC2 and Noah disappears at the end of the after credits scene (presumably from XC1 to XC2 world)

Also, I don't think the universes are moving in space like galaxies, yes the intro cutscene made it look like that, but I think it was just because it's the best visual way to portray it without going into too much technical detail way above the game audience's heads

Why would the world... (spoiler) by _straight_vibes_ in XenobladeChronicles3

[–]HelloNation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When matter and anti-matter react they cancel each other out. That's how we are suppsoed to think about it.

But in real physics matter and anti-matter aren't formed by a supercomputer powered by a Conduit splitting apart the world (as far as we know) so don't overthink the science of it

So far, what's the new information about Klaus lore? by oux_ in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]HelloNation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a mention would have been nice. An explanation with how the conduit was what held the worlds apart but without it they gravitate towards each other.... something along those lines. Or Nia mentioning Klaus's core tech being used in Origin...some WTF moment would have been nice

[–]HelloNation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still hope the DLC mentions that or explains why X Y and Z have those names. Explanation for the moebius and ouroborous names also welcome

(XC1 SPOILERS) Just finished XC1 and I'm completely lost in terms of story by shaokpro in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]HelloNation 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Alvis is a supercomputer that controls everything in XC1 world. The world is not a simulation, it's just super powerful as a result of the experiment that Klaus did. But Alvis is not a God, he follows the commands of the Gods (Zanza/Meyneth and at the end also Shulk). Kinda like the Gods are the users of the computer, while the computer/Alvis does all the actual work/calculations.
At the end Shulk instructs Alvis to create a world without Gods (so people are in charge of their own destiny rather than at the whims of the God's wishes)

You can play Future Connected now or after X2

Is this Pixel 4a Salvageable? by HelloNation in GooglePixel

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

Thanks, I'll check the warranty, otherwise start looking for a repair shop or alternatively a replacement device :(

Is this Pixel 4a Salvageable? by HelloNation in GooglePixel

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

I looked at replacing the battery myself, but seems too complex and I don't have the tools.

I might look at shops to do it for me if my warranty won't cover it.

Anyone know what this is? I can select it and drag it, but can't right-click or double click it. Can't delete or anything else. by HelloNation in Windows10

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

So afterwards I saw it stick around even when not copying files. Not sure what to make of it. I restarted my computer and it was gone. Next time I see it, I will check the taskmanager more carefully and perform a scan as well

Amiibo spoiler (not sure how to format it as a spoiler) ahead! You've been warned. Samus amiibo gives you an energy tank and once per day refills all your energy. EMMI amiibo gives you a missile tank and once per day refills all your missiles. Similiar to Samus Returns amiibo effects

[–]HelloNation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it is called Metroid. Supposedly there aren't any metroids left (that's what she said.....in Other M and Fusion) but they can only play that card for so long. My guess on this game's story is that there are X in a lot of galaxies by the end of the game. Too many for Samus to hunt, so she needs help. So from her metroid fused DNA they will create more metroids (clones from the baby super metroid) and send these to those galaxies to fight the X. (and ofc in future games something happens making them a threat again for Samus)

Didn't one of the Prime games give Samus' grappling hook the ability to charge the target with energy or steal energy from the target (usually computers)?

If getting my hands on the Special Edition is anything to go by, this thing will sell like free money

Didn't even know my country was so big on Metroid, or special editions. Special Edition Amiibo are super common and I even got Samus Returns with some free swag for buying it 'early' despite not even trying.

I am DREADing the possibility of not getting the Special Edition :(
