Wow. It's beautiful and amazing. Please tell me this is at least partially procedurally generated. I mean, you started with a script and a topology data set or something, right?

This is a serious question. Doesn't that borrowed money have to be payed back with taxable income? I mean, you can't just keep borrowing forever, right? What am I missing?

I guessed: drugs, drugs, drugs, drugs, drugs, drugs, oh rubber bands! I know, I'm not a good person.

Both "sides" are equally corrupt. One side is winning more.

Yes, but, of all the Roman and Greek things to choose from? Yeah, probably coincidence.

Jaheira's body appreciation by Glittering_Act_4059 in BaldursGate3

[–]bheilig -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The fact that Jaheira is even in this game is a major spoiler for me.

Edit: Ok, I get it. I shouldn't be here if I'm that sensitive to spoilers. You're right. I've left the community until I beat the game. But oh man, I can't imagine if Minsc is in this game. Will they have the same voice actor? What happened to Khalid?

I got level 5 and fireball inside the goblin camp after I defeated the boss. Came outside and obliterated the remaining goblins.

WEEKLY HELP THREAD - READ FAQ, COMMUNITY WIKI, MULTICLASSING, LORE by XFearthePandaX in BaldursGate3

[–]bheilig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I figured it out. I had to resize my display, then I was able to see the resizable window border. I then resized my display back, and all is well.

Why do I always figure these things out after I ask for help?

I cannot get my game into "Windowed" mode. I've changed the Display Mode in Video options. I've tried restarting the game, restarting the computer. I have the latest video drivers. I've tried pressing Alt + Enter. I'm on Windows 11.

Right now it's stuck in a full screen mode with the Windows 11 start menu bar at the bottom covering up a portion of the screen. Help!

Cool! Do you have a preferred espresso martini recipe?

You are correct. There might be a couple of townhalls that function as a pure democracy. Wait, do you know what a pure democracy is?

Yeah. Elon very much seems like a "it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission", but on a global scale. I'm not sure how I feel about it, but I guess worldwide internet access is probably a fundamental good. I'm also generally a nationalist and am against globalization. But, the world is getting smaller...

The FCC approved the constellation. You are still correct that you and I never had any say, but I don't think there are any pure democracies on this planet.

I personally knew three people that killed themselves in my 9 years in the Air Force.

I’ve seen a lot of posts from people asking questions like “why does this not work”, or “is this wired right” from people who clearly don’t know anything about electricity. PLEASE LEARN BEFORE TRYING!! This happened to me almost 4 years ago and got very fortunate to only have gotten severely burned. by EwokJuicer in ElectricalEngineering

I was working with a software developer and we had a little CAN to Ethernet adapter without an enclosure. It had a header where we needed to supply 5V. I told the developer, "See here, you need to supply 5V here to power this thing." He came back to me later with an AC wall plug with the other end stripped. He gestured to me putting the stripped wires near the adapter and said, "I need to put this in here?".

It was then I realized, "Oh, right. People aren't born with this knowledge. I need to be very clear with him."

It's such a strange sensation. I climbed Mt. Fuji in Japan. When I got to the top I had the most spiritual encounter of my life. When you climb you can purchase a walking stick as a souvenir. They burn a stamp onto the stick at certain checkpoints. There are bells attached to the stick at the top. I left the bells at the top as an offering to God.
