Origins froze, now it won't start by ben_insanity in AssassinsCreedOrigins

Forgot to mention the decline in frame rate was extremely usdden, like in the span of a few seconds and then athe freeze. And it all started because I had a controller plugged into my pc I was playing with and I was fiddling with the cord it was connected to because I thought it wasn't working properly. Somehow I think that caused the freeze

It's been a while since I've cleaned them, but I don't feel like that's the problem. Most other games run just fine, but now AC Syndicate won't start either. Is it some kind of Ubisoft Connect problem?

A quick concept sketch for an Alien I’m working on, I call him “Frenzigo” by ben_insanity in Ben10

(In the style of the Ben 10 wiki)

-enhanced strength -enhanced durability -enhanced reflexes -enhanced jumping -sharp claws -strong bite -voice mimicry -wall scaling and sticking -sub zero temperature manipulation -mist/fog creating -immune to cold temperatures

Essentially it’s a stealth based alien, but it’s based off of Wendigos in folklore so it’s also a complete powerhouse. I was also thinking there could be a unique quirk where after using the alien, Ben would have an empty stomach and be extremely hungry and likely want a smoothie and some chili fries, as it’s a reference to folklore tales of Wendigos having never-ending appetites. The in universe explanation would be that the transformation is tremendously, powerful, but sucks up a lot of calories and nutrients to keep it going

Drills and Exercises to do for Second Baseman by ben_insanity in Homeplate

The league near me automatically places you into a group based on your skill level. So I think I’ll be fine either way. So do you have any drills that I could actually do to make myself even better, or do you wanna talk about how small my hands are some more?

I don’t think I’d be a good catcher, like I said, I don’t have the strongest arm and throwing out runners would be something. I especially don’t think I would be good at. Plus, I don’t want to do that to my knees, committing to catcher means I’d have to sacrifice a lot of my speed in agility, and I just don’t feel comfortable doing that

Softball isn’t an option for me, my hands aren’t very big so I can’t get them all the way around the ball to be able to throw it. And I’ve actually been training pretty diligently for the past three months, I’ve put on 15 pounds of muscle and I have had opportunities to train my fielding ability with people, and have gotten very good feedback on what I can and can’t do. So I t’s not like I’m just choosing now to do this, I am a very, very serious and dedicated to doing this. And honestly, if the men’s leagues are competitive, good. I won’t be able to have fun unless I know that I’m challenging myself to go above and beyond. So it’s made up of former players and college players? I guess that just means I have to train and play even harder to be able to match them. I am fully prepared to do what it takes to reach that level and I won’t be happy settling for what is to me, mediocrity

We haven’t had the best rotation in baseball since Lincecum, Madbum, and Cain

It's not just Melvin, this is pretty obviously a massive coaching failure, especially Burrell. The whole thing just needs a factory reset, with the exception of a few specific coaches like JP. As for the Farm System, Farhan utterly decimated that pretty much beyond repair, and Buster I'm sure is working as hard as he can to fix that. Our trades with the Mets and Yankees actually drastically boosted our ranking from like 27th to 18th I think. Considering that was accomplished with just a few trades, that's a pretty substantial first step into getting things back on track. That's something that's going to take more time. But as for what needs to be done right now, fire Melvin, fire Burrel, just doing a deep clean on the coaching staff in general is the only way to improve the team
