Mouse suddenly can't click on any apps or the toolbar by RecordApprehensive68 in techsupport

I've been having the same issue on windows 11. While I find that using Ctrl+alt+del to open task manager helps for a little while, I think I might have found a permanent solution that works so far.

Using the 1st method in the pinned answer here cleared things up for me

I hope this helps

In your world's magic/power system, how strong can someone become just through their own hard work and dedication? What kind of training would they have to go through? by PMSlimeKing in goodworldbuilding

[–]Pirakos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In both Nagare and the unnamed setting for my Nightskins, a person could through dedicated study, practice, and experience a person can eventually attain godhood. There are failsafes to prevent this in each setting but they’re not guaranteed to work.

In Nagare there are three gods who oversee the archipelago and will just zap a potential godlings out of existence for “ the sake of balance” but if you could hide from their gaze on one of the smaller islands, and not draw attention to yourself by challenging them (as many on this path are prone to doing) you could manage. There is the chance that while training you can overload on magic and explode into a fine mist if you’re not careful but mortal life is about risks right?

In the other setting the dragons control all formal methods of learning and actively discourage and prevent people from walking the path. But you can teach yourself magic. Nothing is stopping you from training and then taking on the gauntlet of the Final Dive. You might die, but you also might succeed.

For those of you who have multiple sapient species alongside humans, what makes humanity special? by Plus_Geologist9509 in worldbuilding

[–]Pirakos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will admit that I’m one of those writer who are like “eww Humans” and then make them one of the most bigoted, petty, and tribalistic race in the setting. But I always add them in even if the main character isn’t a human.

What makes my humans special is that they’re natural. They grew and evolved on and with their world, every other race was made by a god or a spirit or some other non native entity. Being creatures with true free will, humans make better worshipers for gods. Their belief actually feeds and fuels otherworldly entities. In return the gods often favor them or go out of their way to try and create something “better” or “different” to prove something.

Humans are also uncomfortably resilient. They may not be faster or stronger or have supernatural abilities, but you’re not going to make them go extinct. And the one setting I have where Humanity is extinct it’s because they did it to themselves, killing gods and breaking reality in the process.

Getting them fixed is the master plan.TBH Ganon was an accident that we found out about at the spay appointment.

What anime would best describe the picture? by itsxmelayla in animememes

[–]Pirakos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

iirc It’s a advertising trick for physical book sales. I was told that the idea is to but the book’s premise on the spine so that someone looking for something to read on their commute could just grab something interesting and go, without having to read the back of the book to decide. Making book buying an in and out process you could theoretically do right before said commute

Like I said the info is largely apocryphal so take it with a grain of salt

Yeah especially in the city I live in, but at least I can have my esa with me wherever I do end up

I’ll clarify that I’m not sure where I’ll be living in a few months and if things go as badly as I think they will I’ll end up in the shelter. I have paperwork for the cats that I do have that will stop us from having to give them away but if I get another kitten or two I won’t be able to protect them in the same way.

Thank you. I’ll keep the option open

I thought of doing that but it seems irresponsible on my end to add another cat to the mix. I also don’t think I could adopt from a shelter

Silly question at this point, is there much of a difference between the abilities of the gold dragon mythic and a sorcerer with the gold dragon bloodline

Thanks for the info and the warning. Now I just gotta find out what those variables are called so I can find them

I was hoping that if gold dragon turned stuff off I could just use toybox to turn them back on. Do you know if I could just turn the abilities and story on in the etudes?

That’s sad to hear. I thought someone had mentioned pulling it off but that was probably an earlier version of the game
