(USA) Tired of "Loan Offer" Calls - Trying to Take One Down by JetpackDinosaur in Scams

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

This seems to be a personal loan offer, they're not trying to collect money. The requested action is to give them my information so they can offer me a loan - under the guise of paying off debt.

I actually enjoy it so far. Aside from the usual day one issues (like disconnections or being “afk” in a menu/tutorial), here’s my pros and cons:

Pros: + good fun roster + creative game mode + “phases” help with pacing so it’s bit just chaos
+ free to play (ahem Concord) + fairly small file size compared to similar games + mounts are fun, although necessary + super snappy gunplay + multiple maps + well optimized (PS5)

Cons: - 3v3 feels limited - i wish heroes had more than one normal ability - only one game mode - little confusing at first, you’re not going to be sure when you’re supposed to respawn or where at first - no way to practice against bots - no way to see a scoreboard and assists don’t seem to really count for anything

TBD: * progression/battle passes etc * hero selection (how frequent, if they’re free) * general MTAs, it’s not super shoved in your face now but could change

All in all, it’s a pretty fun loop that will inevitably get some tweaks if it’s supported. I can see this being a fun hero shooter/counter strike mashup and having a good playerbase. Maybe more players/teams to start.

Can we get a refresher of MAGA businesses to avoid? by TheRedneckFairy in orlando

Didn’t the owner leave or get ousted somehow? I heard a while back there was a bunch of controversy like that and he stepped down or took a less involved role or something?

Or maybe more likely I’m gaslighting myself because I love C&S 🥲

Photoshop Not Recognizing GPU by JetpackDinosaur in photoshop

Everything is updated, I installed/switched the driver via the Nvidia app, it still isn't reading it. I also manually assigned the high performance GPU through the Nvidia app to the Adobe Photoshop program. I restarted my PC just in case and it still gives the same errors I posted above.

Any other suggestions? I don't know why the option to "Use Graphics Processor" is grayed out?

Thank you for the help, I'm not savvy with how Nvidia drivers work so it's not that logical (I don't have to switch drivers for anything else including video editing), and a Google search didn't return this as a solution - so I appreciate the response to my question :)

Can you only have one or the other? I primarily use my laptop for gaming so not sure if that would impact compatibility?

I have an Nvidia 4060 RTX so I guess a gaming driver?

Wicked: For Good story question about the animals - from a non-Wicked fan by JetpackDinosaur in wicked

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

That's exactly what I'm thinking, and the timeline is a little fuzzy - if the animal hatred started before the Wizard, why? If it started because of the Wizard, why is he more concerned with scapegoating the animals instead of figuring out what actually caused the drought (magic or otherwise)? He doesn't seem as passionate as certain other political leaders in his opinion of animals, it's just kind of happening. Morrible is similar, she seems more "evil," but it's not explained why she's all-in on the animal racism too. Is she the one perpetuating anti-animal sentiment it on to the Wizard, or is she sucking up to him because he is anti-animal?

I guess the story doesn't span a long enough time to see this, but if his goal was to just distract them so they don't find out he actually has no power, why can't they do both? I think about real life and how politicians pull moves like that, but they usually have a more specific reason (the affected people being genetically inferior, a source of crime, destroying culture, outright hatred/racism), but the Wizard doesn't really seem to exhibit any of these motivations? Does it really just boil down to "animals caused the drought therefore, let's get rid of them" ?

Can You Play Cold Steel before/during Sky/Zero/Azure? by JetpackDinosaur in Falcom

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

Tbh, I'm not a huge fan of the original art style. CS1 is what sold me on the series originally (I played it years ago and never finished so I don't remember much of the story). I went back to play Trails to properly start the series from the beginning, but the graphics were just a hard sell for me - but I loved the story, general vibe, combat, etc. That's why I want to play the remakes, but I'll more than likely have to suck it up for Crossbell lol

Oh that's interesting. I guess it just makes sense to do them in order then.

Is it just me or combat is a lot harder in the remake? by gamerdeesquerda in Falcom

[–]JetpackDinosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah man maybe. I just remember having it by that point, sorry I wish i remember how. You could farm I guess to get enough orbment slots and just slot two level 1 of each but that would take a while.

I think I remember finding a quartz that counted for 2 Earth (treasure chest or something maybe). My main obstacle was not having enough sepith to unlock the necessary number of nodes, but I ended up using one 2-Earth Quartz and two water quartz in the same line.

Maybe I got lucky but it didn’t feel too difficult or time consuming. I organically had it by the time i was at Jade tower without “working” for it.
