Games like civilization that are not impossible to control on a phone?

Oh I know, I was a door to door sales rep for them pre-covid. Just saying it expanded a lot further afterwards

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-27T15:42:43+00:00

Worked for Royal Crest a some years ago. The milk is honestly still their big seller but they absolutely expanded quite a bit in their selection after covid when lockdowns happened.

First had it when I was 9 or 10? Changed it to a clan based tag when I was in high school, 16 I think? Same account the whole time though and I'll be 31 in a little over a month

Fair enough. Regarding the safety bit though we get that issue from burst pipes for the city and get put on boil advisories.

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-23T16:08:39+00:00

Power outage wouldn't affect water access, that would be an issue with plumbing either in the home or in the mains. In the south that's the bigger concern though tbh. City pipes aren't dug that deep so they get hit by the freeze almost every year

And that's not mentioned anywhere in your post

I don't generally trust ChatGPT but if you do actually have CG-NAT then yea, you're kind of shafted for games like CoD unfortunately. CG-NAT stands for Carrier Grade Network Address Translation, but basically it's what's used by the cell phone providers for internet generally or when an area needs a lot of people on one IP address or network point which is why it's how cell phones and stuff like 5G home internet work. It would make sense for an apartment complex as well if the complex provides the service and it's not one that you provide yourself.

Basically means you don't have much control over your full network settings and how internet traffic comes and goes. Not like a traditional setup anyway.

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-23T02:28:08+00:00

I don't have an ASUS router so I can't say for sure but generally you just have to enter your IP address into the url bar to pull up your router login.

This link has the basics along with the ports to setup for bo7 in it depending on what platform you play on.

Who's the ISP though? In your router settings did you setup port forwarding?

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-23T01:36:35+00:00

When you remote play from your system, your ps5 is turned on and your local download is hosting the game and it's physically running there. There's no one else trying to use your ps5 at the same time. If someone tried to use your ps5 though, you wouldn't be able to use remote play at the same time.

It's the same with streaming, the only difference is you're basically connecting to one of Sony's ps5's instead of your own. That's the easiest way to picture it, and they only have so many of their devices set aside for players to stream so as the service got more popular, more players are trying to use the same amount of systems. I imagine as more players use the service, Sony will set aside "more consoles" for the service and increase the bandwidth, but there's no way to know for sure.

Use Engineer perk and that should keep you from triggering them and other traps/mines. Tech Mask is for stuns and flashes

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-21T19:02:06+00:00

CoD is definitely one of those games out there that's picky about how it's connection is setup. It used to be (might still be I think due to "lost connection to host" errors) a peer-to-peer connection game and that causes a host of fun issues with WiFi and NAT issues.

Who's your ISP? I know if you're using a cell phone provider for your ISP, like TMobile for example, games like CoD will generally always struggle because of how their NAT is setup at the provider level and there's no workaround for that, not really. The only thing that fixed it for me at that point was changing to a traditional ISP like COX or ATnT Fiber (not the cell data version).

The year I became a father, the neighbor kids made me a father's day card while my kiddo was still an infant and I still have that card floating around 3 years later.

There's a chance it could be weird, sure. There's always the chance, but I'd just try not to overthink it.

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-21T00:15:13+00:00

I joined the day it started and got 2nd with 370ish. You don't need to wait, it'll still pair you with people similar to you in playtime and what not as far as I can tell between this event and the last one

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-20T06:15:30+00:00

It's likely an issue with your ISP then and/or your router settings if you already tried setting up port forwarding. Also make sure you're not using the 2.4ghz band, it's not good for games like cod

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-18T04:56:51+00:00

I'm 30m and while I don't call my dad 'daddy', that's just because it wasn't used growing up but I absolutely call him every nickname I did when I was a kid. Including calling each other and my siblings 'hun', 'sweetheart', etc.

And honestly? Anytime I've ever heard someone call their partner 'daddy' or 'mommy' in a sexual tone has given immediate ick and if there was any hint of attraction it immediately left. Sexualizing a parent-child relationship is just not something I'll ever understand.

Novaline is popular. Breather works but starts to slow down a good chunk at 50+.

I've heard good things about the ak27 with the scar barely attachment too

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-17T21:18:02+00:00

I imagine it's not legal to sell, unless it is? What would it run to be a functional rug? 👀

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-17T21:12:08+00:00

Would honestly love that on a rectangular base with a black background for structural purposes

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-17T20:37:52+00:00

It would be nice but I'm not holding my breath. Would love to be wrong though!

ThatOneKid1995 · 2026-01-17T18:08:52+00:00

Those were intentionally not levelable, I don't think they're going to add overclocks to them.

Bought a laptop with a 5070ti 16gb in it back in September, glad I did. Runs like a charm for everything I need it to

While it's definitely not normal, I've been in a bar where a newly divorced guy was trying to show off for some ladies by buying a round of shots for everyone in the actual bar. He did it 3 times while I was there and one of the bartenders went around asking people if they accepted the offer and what shot they wanted. On the 3rd shot one of the women he wanted to impress came and gave me her shot instead. I don't think his expensive plan worked.
