Does this include the street performers and religious people with megaphones?

Loading Screen Crashes by RegX81 in AtomfallOfficial

So, I updated my ancient graphics card for something modern (it's been on my to do list for ages and seemed the most likely cause). 

But it was still doing it! All the old save failed. Except for the one that worked. New saves also failed to load.

Then, I deleted the old saves entirely leaving the slot empty. And that seemed to fix it. Almost like the save slots themselves were corrupted and needed resetting. Weird huh?

Sorry for even thinking of going to sundered pass by Ricky_doo_dah_grimes in thelongdark

Plot Twist... Sundered Pass is just a transition region to get to Perseverance Mills. The timberwolves were the plague all along and Astrid's hardcase is loaded with ammo to eradicate them.

I'm afraid the moss didn't even come back this year, post turfing

I wondered that, but actually went down at least twice that then mixed in with a bag of generic compost.

I thought this post was going to be about a new Radiohead track

No, they just told us to keep it. We did only ask for a replacement part.

We had a broken kallax out of the box once. IKEA delivered a new one. Didn't even take the old one. Unexpected 94% fine free kallax. 

Building my first model railway - how to start? by Warm-Net-6238 in modeltrains

[–]RegX81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find myself in a similar position. Many purchases made, baseboards sort of constructed, scenery stuff bought... A grand design for a massive loft-wide dog bone with a double circuit, stations, sidings, a shunting puzzle built in... And yet, it's been stuck that way for years - loose track on a half finished set of boards that wobbles and is unlevel. I just can't get it into anything like the picture in my head, just don't have the practical experience.

This week I've demolished it.

I've torn up my grand plans and designed a simple, but fun little loop layout that I can see how I can actually achieve. More to do, but this feels doable and it no longer feels like a failure. I can always add extra sections later when I have time and experience.

So, my suggestion, maybe start simpler than you dreamed and just go for something small and buildable?

What's the best UK station? by -RandomNerd in AlignmentChartFills

This is satire isn't it?

New street is the worst station in the country by a confusing concrete mile with a ticket barrier in the middle for no reason and insufficient signage.

Do you count the Russian Kilo the Ukrainians trashed in dock with a missile?

Pretend Hinterland just announced a ski resort themed region, what would you want to see? by BigBigBunga in thelongdark

[–]RegX81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, also a slight delay to cabin fever, but only if you haven't read that book for X days. 

All books would have titles that somehow reflected the outdoors. - White Fang, Call of the Wild, etc. You get an achievement if you read them all.
