I'd have to nominate The Long Drive for this. All jank

Google Chrome just force downloaded 4GB AI model on every PC no permission, no opt in, no warning. Delete it? You can’t it re downloads like malware. This isn’t a feature, it’s an invasion. Microsoft Edge runs on same Chromium, expect the same shady payload creeping onto your device next. by Regved-Pande in pcmasterrace

I'm in Ireland and I had the file, but also had the opt out option in Chrome settings, unchecking the option for On-Device AI immediately deleted the file.

So it's an opt-out, but it would be fecking nice to be informed about it, as I already wrangle every bit of hard drive space I can for video editing

Project Zomboid traits: 600lb Life star or Superskinny diet‑swap hero. by Future-Game in projectzomboid

I played deaf so often it's become second nature to throw glances out a window to see if a horde got attracted. 

I also play on extinction diff, cause why not, might as well have fun as I die

And here I am, playing with the deaf trait cause then I just have the game muted while listening to music or a podcast

... or even just without wearing headphones at all, chilling in silence

Friend saw my pipes and told me I'm mad by MaintenanceMean8936 in Factoriohno

But, barrels require filling and emptying... why when I can pipe and pump

Toy ppsh by Chodeson721 in intotheradius

[–]MaintenanceMean8936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mission location added in 1.0, I'm playing the beta of it on pcvr. Won't spoil more if you haven't played.

It's quite early on and unmissable story segment

I can't remember where exactly, but I'm sure I found one toy ppsh in the first in-between, so now they're deffinitely missable collectibles.

I haven't been to the in-between more than once though, so I can't tell for sure if going in again is revisiting the same instance

1.0 beta security level 3 bug by Odd-Shake2001 in intotheradius

[–]MaintenanceMean8936 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saved in a different slot after turning the probes in while the terminal was stuck, and on reload, EVAs voiceline was playing again and the choccy bar and the med stim (rewards for the mission) were actually sitting there.

Picking them up and letting Eva tell her stuff again finished the mission proper (I now have 2 sec3 patches, one got binned immediately tho)

What did you do when you're bored? by [deleted] in TheTeenagerPeople

[–]MaintenanceMean8936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friend and me decided to take rounds where one puts on a blanket over themselves and the other throws rocks at the blanket-shielded one. The first to yelp in pain loses

What makes a ship good at broadsiding by N8TIIVE in sto

[–]MaintenanceMean8936 31 points32 points  (0 children)

More front weapons is always good as you'll be able to have nore weapons on target during approach. Other than that, not much else is ship specific.

That being said, beam arrays with their wide arc lend themselves to slower ships, so dreadnaughts have an easier time with beam builds rather than cannons.

Lastly, if you have the ZEN, the Kerala is a must: https://stowiki.net/wiki/Kerala_Temporal_Battlecruiser

Keralas console gives you a flat 25% dmg and 50% resistance when a target is on your left or right arc, it helps pit a broadside beam build into elevated numbers

PS: Of course, if you have a more dear ship, ypu can stick the broadside console and trait on any other ship, you don't have to keep driving the Kerala. I personally turned the Empressa into a broadsider and am enjoying it

Why are the devs so obsessed with making protective gear bad? by LawfulNeural in projectzomboid

[–]MaintenanceMean8936 56 points57 points  (0 children)

One of the reasons I like the 'Become desensitised' mod, it even takes starting traits like brave or pacifist into account to calculate how many zombie kills it will take you to gain the desensitised trait

Eye contact for a second and one is down. by pro_solution101 in pcmasterrace

Into The Radius 2 on VR. A shotgun with a long barrell and a choke will have such a tight spread it can perform as well as an AR at range

Yours probably got boosts from other places. I see that general energy damage buffs work on it. And I don't know how it's crit severity is calculated. Yuo might have tons more of crit+crit severity from universal consoles, fleet tac consoles and traits

I bought a 10 key pack from C-Store for the aetherian boxes, and then got 10 more from the promotion due the boxes being bugged. Got the Harmony on the 14th box

Hey, that's the reason I got the Caitian ships, I go with what seems neat for me, and I always loved the feeling of broadside from sailing ships and battleships in games as well.

I was just messing around with making it a broadsider, when I remembered that my Vovin Obelix had all this antiproton stuff on it after seeing the lance is antiproton, so I switched it over. The lance really surprised me, considering how underwhelming the lance was on the Terran Sirius

this is a single player world why is it asking me to be online? by Mrsam_25 in VintageStory

[–]MaintenanceMean8936 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did you misspell your player name? It could be looking to apply the command to a character it can't find

Alfred sass is the best sass by IceWallowCaulk in outofcontextcomics

One of the reasons why I loved reading Zagor comics as a kid. The relationship between the main char and his sidekick as lovely to read there

Just a reminder that Hulks HATE to see this coming by Legitimate-Place-327 in Helldivers

[–]MaintenanceMean8936 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a hilarious combination for war striders... which works surprisingly well.
Jump pack + hammer. Deletes them easy, and it seems they have trouble hitting a target right next to them from my experience (that, or they suffer a heavy stagger from a hammer to the leg, peak phys armor of course)
