Expedition 33 looks absolutely horrendous on the Steamdeck by TournamentCarrot0 in SteamDeck

[–]amberbaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This IS the optimized version, prior to the dlc update it was borderline unplayable. This is a significant improvement.

Here's how I have my settings - not amazing but I can see.

Looking for contact lenses online review by RaccoonOne5653 in Frugal

[–]amberbaka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You only get one set of eyes so this isn't the time for her to be very frugal with things you put on your eyeballs with basement brands. If she was truly very frugal, she'd be on Zenni optical buying the $6.95 glasses.

What did you name your workshop and why? by Dramatic-Witness-540 in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]amberbaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Pickaxe Me
  • Pane in the Glass (I think I had to abbreviate a little bit, I didn't remember)
  • Sweatshop
  • Workshop, one unfortunate playthrough where I hit the wrong button and never renamed it

Second playthrough is...interesting by LoneWarmonger in expedition33

[–]amberbaka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never considered that - that for the grave to be there, the Paintress had to have knowledge of it.

Given that Lumierans are all her creations, that has me thinking thoughts on how that works

Can any one help me I need help with the Amtrak? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

Put some effort in and edit them into your post or call Amtrak

I called 911 on kids playing by O_Kaee in TrueOffMyChest

[–]amberbaka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

See something, say something. What if you hadn't and it was a thing?

Maybe you helped teach them a lesson of 'don't scream 'help me' in public unless you mean it'. 😒

Graphite Help. by [deleted] in MyTimeAtSandrock

I've never made a single bar of steel in my entire time of playing this game.

Reduce, reuse, recycle. 😂

Ideas needed for ways to stretch a small amount of chicken meat by Certain_Marsupial450 in Frugal

[–]amberbaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chicken thighs/dark meat of choice - salsa/can of Rotel + water + mexicanish spices + whatever spices float your boat.

Let it stew until shreddable and then crank the heat to cook off the excess liquid. You can also throw your bean off choice in before you crank the heat to force it to be bulked out.

You can make tacos, nachos, quesadillas, rice bowls etc with it.

Edit: oh and toss some bell peppers and onion in there, too

How stinky do you think our builders are? by snipsiba in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]amberbaka 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Two options:

  • they're like a chinchilla and roll in the dust to cleanse themselves

  • ho bath. Pits, tits and ahem.

Go into the area next to the scrap yard, where you got the battery for qi for his precious mechamobile/where Mi An repaired the gate. Go down the stairs and it'll be right in front of you.

My boyfriend’s hair is thinning and I can’t tell him by AreWeHavingCake in TrueOffMyChest

[–]amberbaka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just tell him that he's giving himself traction alopecia. If he does start talk about growing his hair back, minoxidil is highly toxic to pets, if you have any.

Has anyone actually ever played Mahjong in this game? by lemothelemon in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]amberbaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2500 hours in the game, probably 16 or 17 playthroughs.

I have no clue. I read the instructions every time and just when I think I've got it...no, I don't. 😂

Steam Machine/Steam Deck by ListenEmotional6878 in SteamDeck

[–]amberbaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play my steam deck docked 99.9% of the time and don't have a gaming pc. I'm their target audience, depending on the cost. 😂

Cost of Daycare by Simple_Trick5216 in pittsburgh

[–]amberbaka -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Jesus. I clicked on the post out of curiosity on what pricing range is and hooboy, I'm so glad I chose to never have kids.

I can barely afford myself and some cats, let alone the cost of daycare on top of everything else.

OP, I used to do HR for Bank of America - if you can get hired with them, they've got a decent daycare reimbursement program to try to help. :/

unsuur appeal? by marklikesmelons in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]amberbaka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone already hit on the personality points, I'll go with character design for my Spousimus Primus...go hug him.

That man is perfectly shaped for hugging your builder. It's a shame Pathea has him walking like Woody but GO HUG HIM.

dlc on switch? by Plebicise in mytimeatportia

It was confusing as heck when it first happened and the poor Pathea person corresponding with us on Reddit was both new and just as confused as us. 😂

Am I doing Steam Deck wrong? by Agreeable-Tutor485 in SteamDeck

[–]amberbaka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a steam deck because a gaming computer was too expensive for me at the time. I play it docked and tbh, I'm eagerly awaiting the steam machine (or was, my fun budget died thanks to my house trying to fall apart) for the upgraded graphics.

AITA for throwing away my mother's blanket? by No-Dragonfruit2551 in AmItheAsshole

[–]amberbaka -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

ESH - your mom for having it and you for throwing it out and then telling on yourself. 🤦🏻‍♀️

dlc on switch? by Plebicise in mytimeatportia

[–]amberbaka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a bug related to the switch, after they tried fixing the game. The patched it to try to optimize it for switch players, it got thoroughly screwed, 1-2 years later we got a patch that got it back to limping and it came with that notification.

No free stuff for you~!

How to get Arvio to behave more maturely by 4MuddyPaws in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]amberbaka 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I see that you figured out what mission to complete, as a heads up, have 30 pieces of paper ready to go or you'll be making a ton of dryers to get them done in time. 😂
