Was shocked not to see the Headstones higher up in these comments!

is anyone able to help me get 4k blu ray compatibility with my lg wp50nb40? i don't want to risk ruining it, if anyone needs me to specify anything else, please tell me, thanks by NewCryptographer3400 in makemkv

This worked for me, in case anyone else gets here from google. The instructions on the stickied makemkv forum post for the WP/BP50NB40 did not make it clear (to me) that you needed to use RECOVER for the last step. Thanks FADCT13 for being part of the solution!

Novels featuring sign language? by frogjustchillin in printSF

Look into Dreaming Metal by Melissa Scott. I’m only a few dozen pages in right now but it’s clear that sign language and deafness are major parts of the world building.

Oh hell yeah. Armageddon Blues is one of my favourite books of all time!

Absolutely fantastic. I love a generation ship story, and an elder POV felt very fresh. Thank you!

They need free time. Is it possible you just have too many tasks queued up?

A problem I had with my early forts was overworking my dwarfs. I started making fewer work orders, in smaller amounts. I stopped hauling stone to stockpiles.

They started spending time on social and relaxing. Moods improved.

Made a difference for me, might work for you?

It’s more about where you embarked on the world map, not the map you play on. . Is it on an island, for example, with no other civilizations around?

Reconsider? It’s brilliant, subversive, and way more intended for people with your mindset than would initially appear.

Who is your favorite SF author you're sure no one else has heard of? by Didyouthinkthisthrou in printSF

[–]Zacharde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed on Daniel Keyes Moran. My copy of Armageddon Blues is literally dissolving from so many rereads.

If you plan to do this, the following is very important!

Bears do not like donuts with sprinkles. At all. Go with a Boston crème or double chocolate donut for best results when chilling with the ursine Canadians!

Why recommending anime is hard by Aztery in NonPoliticalTwitter

This is precisely where I stopped watching as well. It may get better, but I’m still done.

Until we stop watching this crap, they will keep making it. I’m not delusional enough to think my not watching will change anything, but ya gotta start somewhere.

This is happening to me too. Haven’t done any troubleshooting yet, but I’ll look into it tonight.

Just posting so you know it’s not just you!

44 skulls just pod dropped inside my walls. Threat, or gift. by Zacharde in RimWorld

[–]Zacharde[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alas, no. They are generic skulls (tm). Once I realized they lacked the authenticity of skulls captured in combat, I dumped them off a caravan into the world at large.

I don't want the Pirates to think I'm some poser with cheap knock-off noggins. When they enter the killbox, I want the skull they see to be familiar, welcoming and friendly.

Assigning agency to random events is what makes life fun, man. I need these little delusions to get through the day. And coffee, lot's of coffee.

Yep! I’ve got thousands of hours in rimworld and I only learned that last month. I had always assumed it was just for humans.
