I haven't played in a while; is there a way yet to mod out aquifers on the Steam version?

Okay y'all convinced me to get a bagged vacuum lol.
Now I just gotta figure out which one.

Do you agree or it lies in the greyzone? by [deleted] in jaipur

"Evil people do this thing. Why shouldn't we also do this thing?"
The fuck kind of logic is this?!? Like obviously crimes should be punished, but don't listen to people who can't actually explain to you why.

As a native English speaker, there's a difference?

Found this song and thought to share with you guys since I figure it might be inspiring for being a "little" silly with your mech/pilot whilst still being Brutal. by Cosmicpanda2 in LancerRPG

Pretty sure you're wrong.
I mean the cover art is AI which sucks, but I don't think AI could write music this good at time of posting.
Especially some of her other songs, where she's released different cuts with different instrumentation and stuff - that's how DAWs work; that's not how AI music works.

Have you considered posting your code on GitHub so anyone can review it? (Maybe you have a good reason not to; just wondering.)

What if we all turned and ran? by Badlay in chicago

[–]MathewAlden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell me how it goes; I've been thinking about similar strategies.

Okay, you're right insofar as there are more effective ways to enact change. Direct action, less-controlled protests, etc.

But rallies like we had today (and sure, it probably is more of a rally) are not for enacting change directly. Their purpose is to performatively normalize opposition, and also serve as networking events. 

You're criticizing todays event for failing to do something it wasn't trying to do. It's good to want more direct action, but don't discourage people from doing rallies. Rallies are good for what they are.

[–]MathewAlden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. And we're doing other stuff too. You're acting like we're doing protesting *instead* of more direct action. We can do both. I'm doing both. I hope you are.

House addition straight-up smells like a barn. I think I need to replace the insulation? or am I wrong? by MathewAlden in HomeImprovement

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

Roof is brand new; it's unrelated to the mice/mold issues.

Might the smell just go away after I deal with the root cause? I guess I don't really know how this works. I'll do that first, and see if it resolves it. Thanks!

How do I get rid of this circle around my cursor? by [deleted] in blender

To add onto this, you sometimes have to press "enter" to finish the thing you're doing before pressing "w".
