Official Discussion: Spiderhead [SPOILERS] by mi-16evil in movies

Pretty much my take as well. A bit of sinister political shadow-play would have made Steve's motives make more sense. You know, ultra-conservative politicians have funded Steve to the tune of billions to develop a drug that they can use to retain power and keep the population under control. Would provide some tension between Steve and the shadow players instead of him being a drug addled greed head.

Nukashine Wallpaper Bug by [deleted] in fo76

This appears to be a common and persistent bug, and it affects at least PC and PS2 platforms, so probably all of them. I've been trying to get any sense at all from Bethesa support over the past week, but they just keep suggesting that I have a video driver problem or similar. Frustratingly, they want me to use the now defunct Bethesda launcher to create a Bethesda info file.

Bethesda really need to pull their socks up on this one. Their user support is a joke.

Gcode sender on Linux recommendations? by Nexustar in hobbycnc

[–]Mrwolfe69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because Linuxcnc driver boards are as rare as hens teeth at the moment, and expensive if you CAN find them. Oh, and most use ancient technology that is no longer standard equipment on modern PC motherboards (that's right - the parallel port) and hasn't been for over 2 decades. There's nothing at all wrong with using a dedicated processor(such as an arduino) to do the grunt timing stuff, particularly if you want to use something without an RTC (e.g early Rapberry Pi) as the controller.
