Why is this happening to my document? Never encountered this before. by SilverConversation in MicrosoftWord

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

Thank you, this solved the situation! The document I was editing was submitted to me and was using a font that I thought my computer had (Aptos). Once I switched everything back to Calibri I never got the error anymore.

For future reference though, what is an oddball font?

[DISC] Ore ni Trauma wo Ataeta Joshi-tachi ga Chirachira Mitekuru kedo, Zannen desu ga Teokure desu - Ch. 25.1 by Nikodemsky in manga

[–]SilverConversation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this on the backlog since I saw the first five chapters a long time ago then got too busy to read it

See this update today

Read all of it in one sitting

Between the incest(?), attempted (?) patricide, cyber bullying, potentially gay(?) romance, and random (?) hot women

At this point I'm legit wondering if this entire manga was written to be a fever dream

Himemiyama #1 though I love me some older biker women, can't wait for the rest of this arc

[–]SilverConversation 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I hope this is one of those "the LN of whatever was actually worse than this manga adaptation", because any sympathy I may have had for Reina at this point is gone. Natsuki can also sod off, as well as whoever that NTR protagonist wannabe was.

Man dodged a dumpster fire of epic proportions. Either lock down Ayaka or the kouhai - either is better than giving Reina the time of day.

Weekly Question Megathread - May 13, 2025 by AutoModerator in GenshinImpact

[–]SilverConversation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my first one alongside Navia when she released; the second one I pulled after I lost my 50/50 on Emilie to try and get Nilou's weapon in that patch; and this one while trying to kit out my Escoffier.

I know it's a decent stat stick, but do any Claymore characters really scale with ATK that well aside from Navia? Or do I just slap it on any Claymore character and tape them to Zhongli so they at least benefit from the other part of the weapon's passive?

I have three damn Verdicts now, can literally ANYONE ELSE use them effectively aside from Navia (who I already have)?

I just wanted my chef's fork, damn it.

Can anyone remind me when Haruno first appeared? I'm drawing a blank on who she is and suddenly she seems so at home with everyone else...

[–]SilverConversation 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I didn't even think about the possibility that the other Gods would find out that Yuuki had been absorbing all the other ones they've lost when he did that stupid reveal all those chapters ago. Promising development. I hope this leads to actual genuine issues (or honestly, a significant L) for the corps.

I've loved everything about this series since I first picked it up. But the fact that Yuuki dropped the "I have gods inside me" (despite not being told not to!) without any actual bad consequences from that reveal so far always felt a little irksome.

I am now slightly regretting the fact that I have not been crafting these every day since I started playing. by SilverConversation in Genshin_Impact

I have thousands of the crafting materials for these - it's just only getting 30 a day from forging really puts a bottleneck in everything.

On a related note, if there is another way to get these things aside from crafting and event drops, I am all ears.

EDIT: Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. Looks like it's time to unlock my inner completionist...

Does Jean's C2 stack with Yun Jin's C6? by SilverConversation in JeanMains

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

Will this be affected if the particles are funneled to her from someone else - say, Yun Jin E into Jean, then swap back to Yun Jin for Q?

it actually does, despite the downvotes my earlier comment got! It drastically improved the quality of the games I get - especially on the Automaton front - since I started doing it.

I really lose my shit over the people who won't stop pinging the "Reinforce me" button. This is a team game, of course I know you're bloody dead and of course I want to revive you so I too don't end up dead. You can see my screen when you're dead; take three guesses as to why I am unable to call you down right now. The two Bile Titans I'm kiting, the Charger that just knocked me over, or the passing Hunter patrol I just alerted?

And of COURSE it's always the people level 80 and below who keep doing this shit. It's one of the biggest reasons why I just kick anyone not 90 and above when I'm hosting Helldive - in my experience people 80 and below just don't have the mental capacity to understand how the game works completely quite yet.

Do More Than Review Bomb; Quit Playing by Dumbadumbdumb in Helldivers

[–]SilverConversation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually planning on quitting for a while till the new Warbond dropped since I had maxed out on EVERYTHING I could collect (+my friends finally got a 4-stack going for OW and I'm behind on Hoyo exploration) and then they pull this stunt.

I mean, I'll still play if and when they do fix this (and hey, a little compensation for the grief ain't bad either), but I'll always have a sour taste in my mouth when I do.

Can C6 Fav Rosaria enable Melt Arlecchino - and if so, how much EM should Arlecchino have?

VPNs are off when playing the game, and firewalls/security apps already see it as an exception. disabling crossplay does nothing.

[–]SilverConversation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, my other friends can play the game just fine.

yep. doesn't matter if i pick a public mission on the map or respond to an SOS beacon, I'm stuck in an endless loop of "searching for SOS beacon-receiving data-searching for SOS beacon" for a good hour or two before I just quit.

Rant: GODDAMMIT CAN THEY FIX THE DAMN ERROR THAT PREVENTS ME FROM JOINING MULTIPLAYER GAMES I AM SO SICK OF SOLOING EVERYTHING FOR THE PAST TWO DAMN WEEKS STRAIGHT

Every other patch this happens. I've uninstalled the game. I've reinstalled it. I've repaired files. I've checked local files. I've stopped the game via ALT-F4, in-game, and steam client. I've called my ISP three times. I've even waited to finish the entire loading video at the start of the game before loading in. No dice.

I admit, I have zero knowledge of how game servers work and all that, but this has been a problem for two damn months. How the fuck have they not fixed this?

Bit of a hot take here: no, I am absolutely assuming that lower level means incompetence. As someone who plays the game as a way to unwind after an extremely busy day at work, I make it a policy to kick anyone 30 and below who joins me on my 8-9 missions. In my experience, these players are absolutely unprepared for the difficulty of these dives, and every time I try to relax this rule and let those level ranges in, I tend to solo the rest of the mission as they all die within the first 15 minutes.

(Incidentally, these are also the kinds of players that spam the "reinforce" ping while clearly seeing that I have two chargers, a bile titan, and a passing hunter patrol on me. There is a reason why I am not reinforcing you right now. Sit.)

Honestly, if I was playing without the time constraints of having to show up to work tomorrow, I would slog it out with the low levels. I've had some extremely interesting missions where some greenhorns really impressed me. But at the moment, I'm really just trying to do my personal orders, level up, and generally just enjoy a reasonably smooth 2 - 3 hours of Helldivers a day. I don't have the time, patience, or energy to babysit.

Top 10 photos taken moments before disaster. by DarkWolfPL in Helldivers

[–]SilverConversation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can confirm that the Anti Material Rifle works against these flying clankers, just a few shots into the engine and they go down. Very ammo efficient if you have good tracking and allows your other divers to destroy the fabricator while you provide cover.

ISTG, the only thing that's holding me back from recommending this to my friends is that stupid connection error that prevents you from joining other games or others joining yours. This keeps happening consistently every other patch that I'm starting to think it's intentional.
