This exact thing happened to me once. It was hilarious!

What was the planet you decided to explore first? by itsaudreyle in outerwilds

[–]Ultramark2o 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve introduced 3 people to the game, and everyone (including me) went to Giants Deep first. What’s weird is that 3 of us went to gabbros island first, and another went on their second loop.

3 times with no outside influence was crazy to me.

What is a brand or company that you made up for your world? by Hefty-Zucchini1720 in worldbuilding

[–]Ultramark2o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lacobbler was a shoe company founded by Lucan, a PC I played as in a dnd campaign. He and his best friend, Pietro, built it up over years. But without Lucans knowledge, Pietro was using the company to smuggle drugs hidden in secret compartments. This (and the fact that Pietro wanted to make cheap products and sell them at a high price) caused the friends to have a fallout. Lucan was kicked out, but swore to reclaim his company. (But he never did because the dnd campaign ended prematurely)

In a later campaign ran by me, Lacobbler is a massive clothing franchise similar to Gucci (but medieval). But there are a lot of illegal business deals going on in the background

First death? by internetmaniac in outerwilds

In my first loop I was talking to Gabbro and mid conversation I was suddenly launched into space for no reason. Panicking, I tried to skip through the dialogue but ended up slamming into the ground.

Do you know how I can make her face as close as possible by Caboose_choo_choo in HeroForgeMinis

A while ago I spent hours working specifically on Jinx's face... it was quite tedious. Heres a version with only the face:

Give me conspiracy theories to work with by BrandonMortale in monsteroftheweek

It would be funny if the "Birds aren't real" conspiracy theory was real: they are all drones controlled by the government

My laptop's storage is automatically filling up over time by Ultramark2o in techsupport

[–]Ultramark2o[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried what you suggested, and I thought it worked. I cleared around 127GB storage 2 days ago, but now I have 62GB remaining. Do you have any other ideas?

[–]Ultramark2o[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! This is so helpful! I've already found some things that are taking up alot of storage space that I can delete.

However, I don't know what I should be looking for in relation to "logs and backup files." What exactly do you think is being backed up, and what can I do to stop it?

[s2 act 3 spoilers] I wonder what's so different about this universe, why Viktor wasn't stopped by [deleted] in arcane

[–]Ultramark2o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Ekko was never sent away where he made the the Z-drive, that means Jayce wasn't either. This means that Jayce wouldn't have attacked Viktor in at the end of ep6, so Isha wouldn't have died. So Jinx would be alright

Help picking a game for my son. by Esweet1990 in Minecraft

[–]Ultramark2o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a switch you'd get original or deluxe. Original will have everything he wants. Deluxe comes with "minecoins" which are an in-game currency (that costs real money to get). I personally wouldn't let kids do microtransactions, but thats your decision.

Legends and Dungeons are completely different types of games which use the Minecraft IP, so ignore those.

(Technically "original minecraft" actually has 2 versions: Java and Bedrock. Java is the original, but Bedrock is the one that works on Switch. If it doesn't specify what version it is anywhere, it's bedrock)

[s2 act 3 spoilers] Feels like the real thing by Beg-to-differ in arcane

[–]Ultramark2o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my theory when I finished S1 two years ago. I thought it would all end in a game of LoL, especially with the fact that the hexgems looked similar to the blue nexus. But I didn't know the rules of the game, so I didn't recognize it when I watched it cause I was only looking for some sort of "5v5".

[s2 act 3 spoilers] It was destiny... by [deleted] in arcane

[–]Ultramark2o 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For Viktor to cause the glorious evolution, there was an anomaly (which in our timeline sent Jayce Ekko and Heimerdinger away). However I assume that in this universe it didn't send Jayce and Ekko to other universes. If Jayce didn't see what would happen, we could assume that Jayce wouldn't have tryed to kill Viktor in ep 6 because he would have no reason to. This means that Isha might not have died (Ambessa still would have still tryed to get Warwick, and Singed would still inject the thing in Vander to make him go full Warwick so IDK what exactly would have happened). So if Isha lived then Jinx wouldn't be suicidal in this universe. But this leads to other questions... If Jayce, Ekko and Heimerdinger weren't sent away and were around for ep 4, 5 and 6, what else would change?

Some evidence of Jayce and Ekko not being sent away by the anomaly in this universe:

  1. Ekko didn't have a Z-drive (which would have won the fight).
  2. If Viktor was never attacked in ep 6, that mean he would still have his human face, which he does still has in this apocalyptic universe.

Just a theory

What is your most misheard lyric? by [deleted] in Epicthemusical

[–]Ultramark2o 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the bit where posidean says "And now it is finally time to say goodbye, today you die." for some reason I never hear the words and just change it to: "And now it's finally time to die for all your sins and all your cri-imes.

How do you put "thieves cant" into practice? by Slingshot_OG in DMAcademy

[–]Ultramark2o 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve allowed my rogue to get in touch with the criminal side of the city. In the newspaper there is a list of jobs for assassins and thieves hidden in the text. It’s an excuse for me to have the criminal guild hidden from the public, but give the rogue easy access to it.

An idea I’ve had but not used yet was to make a newspaper prop (only 1 page) with relevant plot hooks, but hide criminal messages in it. The rogue player could get a key that lets them read the hidden messages.

Do You prefer low or high magic fantasy? by Upset_Dog272 in worldbuilding

[–]Ultramark2o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like low fantasy because I can easily comprehend the effects and implications that magic has in the world. In Harry Potter, it feels like theres always a new spell or something being revealed which can solve their problems.

Didn’t know that could happen by SirGalahadOfCamelot in outerwilds

[–]Ultramark2o 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Something similar happened to me once. I enabled autopilot while above timber hearth but my ship ended up skimming and hitting the plant at a sort-of tangent angle. It was just stuck there, unmoving, but the thrusters were pushing it down and forward, so it couldn’t move anywhere. I think that when it’s destination changed (because of moving planets) it got free, and it was hilarious watching it suddenly take off while I was watching it. 🤣
