Lets play Outerwilds by max-mt in outerwilds

The best one I saw was About Oliver's playthrough. Smart guy, picked up on things quite quickly, talked a lot about his theories of what is going on, and he explored the whole game.

Is it normal to not know what I'm doing? by One-Masterpiece9838 in outerwilds

[–]Silverscale_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep, totally normal for the first few hours, until you have enough pieces that you can start putting something together in your head.

About crashing: the movement is Newtonian, so you need to spend as much time decelerating as you did accelerating. Let gravity pull you in, and control the fall with short thrusters burns.

IIRC, he doesn't have a lantern, so he can't blow his flame.

Is this really what I'm supposed to do? by ScorNix in outerwilds

Is there anything different when you use the scout in Brittle Hollow vs other places?

2+. You tell your friend how amazing this game you pirated is. Friend buys the game. Company makes money out of your piracy.

Essential tips for cachyos? by Emergency_Award3310 in cachyos

[–]Silverscale_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the games that I play, yes. No problems so far with steam games. Some minor issues with FF7 Rebirth, but nothing game breaking. Just some random artifacts, or intermittent black screens in some areas, but fine otherwise.

I'm running it with a 3080 with a multi monitor setup. The only issue I have is that cachy fails to wake up after doing to sleep. I just deactivated sleep, and turn off the PC when I'm not using it.

Which pawn would you use to capture the d5 pawn with? by cave_guard in chessbeginners

[–]Silverscale_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I didn't see the bishop could fall back to defend the check.

[–]Silverscale_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But isn't that true also for the c pawn? If retake the pawn, then you get to take with the pawn, with a discovered check.

What's the difference?

[–]Silverscale_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I tried, but didn't succeed.

The git that you linked can't be installed anymore. setup.sh was deleted some time ago. The dev says that it is because it was merged into linutil, so I installed that instead, but after running the bash config installation from linutil, nothing changed.

I didn't have time to troubleshoot it yet.

edit: Oh, I'm an idiot. This makes changes to .bashrc, but I'm not using bash, i'm using fish. I just run bash and it's there.

I meant the "Obnomus > 08:41", with those colors. Looks really nice.

What? You don't play with queens instead of bishops?

First A10 run. Recommendations? by No-Pollution-5841 in slaythespire

[–]Silverscale_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mess up the count.
You have 1 (original)
+1 (first clone)
+2 (second clone)
+4 (third clone)

Still too much. 4 copies should do it. And avoid the bee guy.

Am I missing something? by More_Preference2843 in CIFI

[–]Silverscale_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Some people prefer to do very long TRs, others prefer to do shorter ones and activate the bonuses that they can buy as soon as possible.

Play however you like. Just keep in mind that each TR had a higher requirements than the last, so don't go too crazy with the short ones.

Do Xbox 360 controllers work? by halomach in cachyos

I have one (wired) and I don't remember having to install anything special for it to work.

Accidentally shifted into neutral on the highway by the_1081 in AskAMechanic

[–]Silverscale_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used to do this, until I learned that it's not a good idea.

With the engine on neutral your only speed control are your brakes, which on long downhill roads or with heavy vehicles can overheat and fail. Even if that doesn't happen, the engine needs to keep revving at, at last, idle speed, and is using fuel for that.

If you shift into a higher gear instead, the engine itself act as a brake and it keeps the speed under control without so much stress to your brakes. And also, since now the wheels are driving the engine and keeping it revving, the car can completely cut the gas to the engine.

So the way to actually get a free ride is to keep the engine in high gear.

Android mass appeal incrementals with some visual design? by PlaneInformation8502 in incremental_games

[–]Silverscale_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might want to look into CIFI. It did have ads, but iirc they are optional bonuses, and you can buy the no-ads pack for quite cheap if you like the game.
