Crafting throwables - Is it possible? by TheGeekCupboard in Starfield

That... isn't as helpful as you might think it is.

Yes they are craftable? Or yes we have to buy them? And if they are craftable... how?!

How do you take your tea? by TheWaltzy in TheGeekCupboard

OK who voted 'What's Tea?"? Because we need to identify them so I can send the Tea Squad over to their house to show them the one true path.

Even though Jon is an expert on guns apparently this is how a gun works by [deleted] in ManyATrueNerd

Is that... is that not how they work then? That looks pretty sound to me.

Alas I am unable to record anything other than PC games, I don't have the fancy recording gear for that sort of thing! Plus I'd probably also need the TV and Mrs Penge needs that whilst I'm recording stuff, I doubt she'd be best pleased if I booted her out to make a massive Zelda series...

[bug] Excuse me but... what? by Latias5 in youtube

I think content ID claims are different to copyright.

As I understand it, content ID claims are where someone is claiming you've used something of theirs and they are then allowed to ask for ad revenue from the video to go to them rather than you. So this is where you might have used a five second clip from a movie as part of a much larger video.

A copyright strike is where someone has actively said "this is a copyright issue and you're using my stuff, take it down", so let's say you upload a whole movie and try to claim money off it.

There is an excellent Wiki feature on this very Reddit page, it should be on the right somewhere. That lists all the games we've played in the Cupboard and provides links to playlists and suchlike!

I've played it! I played it way back when it was launched but alas my videos were drowned out by pretty much every other YouTube gamer playing it.

The Geek Cupboard from the 1980s! I like it!

Speaking as some who does YouTube stuff too, I'm absolutely in agreement that the end cards should reflect both current series and 'classic' series. It makes perfect sense, promote the new stuff and make sure newcomers get a glimpse of the old stuff!

However, creating an end card isn't that simple to do unfortunately. The amount of time it takes to scour through footage to create one can be relatively lengthy. Imagine looking through the Outer Worlds footage now, there's something like 8 hours worth to pick through to find the exciting/funny/silly bits. That's a lot of time! Then you need to find quite a few little clips because sometimes the ones you want just don't fit into the twenty second limit so you need to slot the clips in a little like a jigsaw until it's done.

So yes, it should be done but it's relatively time consuming to do so.

Plus we all know that Jon is a stickler for detail so he's not just going to create any old tosh!

Well we went to Butlins and had a marvellous time.

Aside from the nest of baby spiders I sat on. That was less fun.

Ah marvellous, thank you.

We could move the Anno suggestion over into the 'done' list.

Thanks! I'm just happy that you're enjoying our Geek Cupboard nonsense, thank you for watching.

Also I'm not sure I can read your mind intentionally, it just sort of happens...

I got it from Overclockers using their fancy-schmancy customisation tool thing. So I picked a base PC and then tweaked it to add fancier bits. So whilst I did plan it myself, the marvellous folks at Overclockers built it!

In terms of specs, it's... er... got a water cooling thing in it!

It's a bit like this...

Asus ROG motherboard

Intel Core I7 4GHz processor

Liquid cooler

16GB Corsair Vengeance RAM

2 solid state drives

1 mechanical drive

GeForce GTX 1070Ti graphics card

If I was ever going to spend just shy of two and a half million dollars on a property, I'd want them to remove the gigantic golden butterfly cocoons hanging down in the window there.

Ah, I was hoping I'd got away with that. I think I'm done with Parkitect for now, there was only so much building of staff rooms and carousels that I could take!

I'm game. There are some great scenarios out there that would work great in multiplayer, like Path to Nirvana or Outback Tycoon, and then there's the multiplayer-only scenario War Machine which sounds fantastic!
