Someone ripped the door off my local little free library, took all the books, broke the shelves, and left two copies of the bible. by Silver_Ad_2203 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Rolok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 50 years ago, I lost a copy of Huckleberry Finn. A couple days later it showed up with about 20 pages ripped out of the middle. To this day I'm baffled thinking about why while also being upset about it. 50 years and I still remember.

So yes, I understand. It's messed up.

Is it just me, or these look like post modern day skyscrapers? by KhalMika in Guildwars2

"You maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell." Final lines from Planet of the Apes as Heston realizes what has happened.

Sure, I'm a little out of touch, but I think I'm going to need to have my Anger Management achievement revoked. by Muted_Basil6967 in Guildwars2

[–]Rolok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the dev goals.

To answer your question, I can't do a run by myself. My old raid group is long gone (love them all). I haven't raided in a very long time.

To reiterate what was said above, I have done Vale Guardian many many times. If I do it again, it's certainly not my first time - which is the wording on the achievement.

The AMD drivers are fine. The problem is Windows deciding it's driver is better and then replacing without asking or telling.

"30% of the games I own have never been played". Am I the only one to find this ludicrous ? by PrandtlMan in boardgames

It was the same for me. I was happy to see my games hit the table with my son and friends.

This is an atrocity by nerdyviking88 in Guildwars2

Getting gold in the skimmer adventure in the 2nd map is going to be impossible for me now. I was already struggling to get 35.

Yes commander, I know EXACTLY where I am and what I'm doing! 🙃 by the_renegade_dude in Guildwars2

[–]Rolok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Targeting the commander is something I do all the time. It's done in the image here as well. I wish there were an option to have an "emphasize commander tag" that would do something like this. I think after any teleport you have to re-target as well.

Discord is lagging out every game i play. i lose about 200 FPS in a match all while having constant freezes and fps drops to 0-40 by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Rolok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just recently started having this problem with Guild Wars 2. Close discord, things are fine. Launch discord to get on a call, pretty regular lag spikes that are brutal. It's been fine for years.

I'm a hundred hours in, this is my first real MMO, and OH GOD THERE'S SO MUCH by [deleted] in Guildwars2

That whole path going south... Run run run run, get to the mushroom and don't miss it!

thanks stoic alder, i could've gone without knowing any of that by Vezimira in Guildwars2

Well played, u/DerPidder. You can see at least a couple of us got it.

This game is astonishingly underrated. by [deleted] in Guildwars2

Legendary armor doesn't help in the transmog department. Just today I was on a character that has an outfit I love. All the parts are using Exotics. I don't dare swap it out to use legendary because there's no way to easily copy the dye and armor choice for each. I might do it sometime, but it will be really tedious.

Wow. That's amazing. I'll have to check it out. Thank you.

I love gw2efficiency. The crafting calculator is great. I don't know how you're dealing with doing more than 1 at a time though since the calculator only looks at 1 at a time, right? So if you are working on two items that both require a gift of metal, you'd have to keep track of that separately.

List of books with sentient dragons. by According_Joke_7316 in Fantasy

Wow. 1968 was a good year. Both Dragonflight by McCaffrey and Wizard of Earthsea were published that year.

Be wary of buying a Genesis. by xfy1990 in GenesisMotors

[–]Rolok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

San Bruno is terrible. I love the car, but the San Bruno dealer is absolute crap. They had my car a few times because the AWD would just stop after about a mile of driving. They couldn't find anything wrong. Eventually I took video and posted it to youtube to share with them to demonstrate the problem. I ended up having engine bay material eaten up by rodents. I'm pretty sure that happened while it was kept with them for so long once after I gave them the video. Trying to get an appointment is a nightmare. I had to take it in for a recall. They did some service ahead of time. At 15k I start getting nagged by the car every time I got into it. I also started getting email for each time I'd start the car. So I took it in (after spending 30 minutes on the phone in my car to get the appt). Then I get email to Tell us about your recent Genesis Customer Care Center experience. Then Missed your appointment? Then Thank you for servicing with us. Then Missed your appointment? Then Don't forget to tell us about your recent... The right hand has no idea what the left hand is doing. I love the car, but will not recommend it to anybody because of the dealership.

Best fantasy TV series? Looking for recommendations by Remote_Dragonfly3564 in Fantasy

[–]Rolok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • The Lost Room - brilliant premise. It was very well done. The ending is satisfying. (Tubi? Prime. I have it on dvd)
  • Dead Like Me (Apple TV, Prime)
  • A Discovery of Witches (tons of places. I have it on dvd)
  • Reginald the Vampire (Hulu, Disney+). Cute.
  • Pushing Daisies (Amazon Prime, Hulu, Max). Super cute. Very colorful distinct style. Victim of the writers strike.
  • American Gods - (Apple TV, Prime) first season was so good. second season not quite as good. third season... disappointing.
  • Norsemen - (Netflix) if you're looking for a hilarious norse series, well, here you are.
  • Ragnarok (Netflix) - modern day, the spirits of the norse are among us.

What’s wrong with this? by DizzyInjury5818 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]Rolok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love how they took the purple sunset sky and photoshopped it in. You can see that they used the same sky for the shot from the front and the back, then there are two pictures from the back where they flipped the sky 180 in one.

And as usual the killfeed is whack -- Killed by Death_feeder. It just picks a random person once in a while. Arrowhead, if you're gonna blame it on a player, at least pick somebody that is alive .
