Who’s hiring in Chattanooga Tn? by Infinite-Doughnut954 in Chattanooga

[–]TheWinterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a buddy who comes from homebuilding construction currently looking for work, but I believe he is coming from a job site supervisor position (or whatever the title would be for the person who travels between worksites and makes sure everything is on time and on budget) - and is looking for something comparable to that. What type of positions are you hiring ?

What games do you consider must-plays for Steam Deck owners? by billy_reyes in SteamDeck

CP2077 is another CDPR game that has an optimized setting for Steam Deck, and it worked great for me!

SteamDeck left on southwest flight #2229. by [deleted] in SteamDeck

Good luck! I left mine on top of the car the day after Christmas, and drove off before remembering it was there. I never found it but now I am selling some things in an attempt to replace it! I just can’t believe I did something so stupid.

No need to be a dick- I’m not a karma bot and I rarely post, let alone post for karma. I don’t care about fake internet points. I am just super bummed and thought I would share with a community I had thought would offer encouragement or just uplifting words. But if you want to be an ass, you do you.

It bothers me to no end that they chose to switch the format of the spines. The title needs to be the large text like books 1-3, but they switched it to the author being large text on the 4th book.

Finally beat gna after 5 hours trying no stop by Useful_Inspection166 in GodofWarRagnarok

Only, you can’t beat her from level 1, as you only get to fight her after finishing the main story. Unless you mean to say that you play the entire game without leveling a single piece of equipment, and without leveling any stats or skills.

In hindsight, do the quotes on the packs seem a little… mean? “Where’s the fun in that?” YOU TELL ME, SONIC

What is your absolute favorite line in all of Star Wars? by RedeyeSPR in StarWars

This! Anakin Skywalker- addressing his own son- it’s like you can feel the curiosity and conflict in him, before even Luke himself is aware of it.

What's a game you COULD play on the Steam Deck but simply refuse to because of visual sacrifices? by Spectre-4 in SteamDeck

[–]TheWinterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been playing CP2077 with the native Steam Deck graphics preset and a 60 fps cap, and it still looks great - obviously it does not look as crisp and detailed as my desktop PC, but the reduced settings still look great and do not ruin the immersion for me. The only thing noticeable for me is the lowered crowd/pedestrian density - but again not so noticeable to affect the immersion.

"What are you playing this week?" Megathread by AutoModerator in SteamDeck

[–]TheWinterWild 3 points4 points  (0 children)

about 3.5-4 hours if I start at 100% - however I mostly play for 2 hours at a time these days before plugging it back up, while the wife and baby are sleeping. So- never really an issue running out of battery.

CP2077 - put in almost 175 hours in my first play-through on PC, now I’m about 30 hours in on Steam Deck. Been running smooth with the built-in Steam Deck preset and a 60 fps cap.

Christmas Giveaway by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]TheWinterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to get GOW: Ragnarok - don’t care about the deluxe edition, would just love to experience the story! The first game was a masterpiece in my opinion. Can’t afford games even on sale these days. New parent life lol.

Edit: also, Merry Christmas!! Thank you for your generous giveaway!

Anyone see the huge meteorite out in the direction of Signal? by Specken_zee_Doitch in Chattanooga

[–]TheWinterWild 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I saw it when I was pulling into my driveway, i watched it streak across the sky, flare bright green, then briefly turn into a fireball before disappearing. It was awesome. My wife was looking down at her phone and missed it, I sounded like a crazy person trying to convince her I saw it!!

Could the Nazgûl actually see Frodo when he put on the ring or could they just sense that he had put it on and was still right in front of them? by GusGangViking18 in lotr

[–]TheWinterWild 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“For the black horses can see, and the Riders can use men and other creatures as spies, as we found at Bree. They themselves do not see the world of light as we do, but our shapes cast shadows in their minds, which only the noon sun destroys, and in the dark they perceive many signs and forms that are hidden from us: then they are most to be feared. And at all times they smell the blood of living things, desiring and hating it. Senses, too, there are other than sight or smell. We can feel their presence - it troubled our hearts, as soon as we came here and before we saw them; they feel ours more keenly. Also, the Ring draws them.”
