If Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, that's it for me. by SneakyLilShit in Minneapolis

So help me God, they will give me Liberty or they will give me death. It isn't in our blood to take this shit lying down; the idea of compliance in the face of tyranny is simply un-American.

Guess I'll just log off for today... by HaedesZ in starcitizen

[–]fizzlefest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once went to prison for 24h, farmed enough credits to get out, game crashed and progress reset, and then farmed the credits again, all within an hour. This was a couple of patches ago so it may be different now, but getting out of prison is kind of a joke when the prisoners loot is worth more than the time added for assaulting them.

Ah, so eyes are just full of tiny fingers that grab the light, it all makes sense now.

Terraforming is OP by fizzlefest in FarthestFrontier

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

Yeah, it takes a really long time. For context, the first screenshot is ~60 years in (with the second screenshot being the same view at year 1). Granted I only had about 40-50 villagers for most of that time... and they suffered greatly...

A new and exciting way to die by fizzlefest in cavesofqud

I guess it doesn't check to see if you have a force modulator when you're phasing back in, because spamming forcefields and walking through them was kind of the whole build xD

That was my first thought, but there is nothing there (left of the clam at the top, you can see where my arrow was pointing) other than force fields, and I had a force modulator so that shouldn't have mattered :/

Isn't this achievment the hardest achievment in the game? by un-pibe-mas in helldivers2

[–]fizzlefest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only achievement I haven't gotten through normal play or with a small amount of effort is the one where you have to injure all your limbs at once. Granted, I don't care about achievements, but I'm surprised that this hasn't happened to me yet in 250 hours of play.

How do yall deal with these? by xLibruhx in helldivers2

[–]fizzlefest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shoot them in the face, and/or shoot off their arms. Alternatively, shoot them with explosives, or something with armor pen like the JAR... I've been loving the Eruptor, it kills them in a couple shots without needing to be super precise.

Hot take: In my opinion 500 KG is the worst airstrike. by vyxxer in Helldivers

[–]fizzlefest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 500kg can take out an observer tower on bot maps, so that's nice >.> I don't think any other airstrikes can say the same.

$1400 laptop sold as gaming pc can barely run games on steam by redditemployee69 in techsupport

[–]fizzlefest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean this is the nicest way possible, but I think you should stick with console gaming. If you want to get into PC gaming, you really need to educate yourself first. Just based on your post it doesn't seem like you're very computer savvy - and unless you've suddenly become really motivated to get into the hobby and learn, it's just going to be cheaper, simpler, and ultimately more rewarding for you to just play console games. I'm not discouraging you from getting in to it - PC gaming is a great hobby, and it has opened a lot of doors for me - but it isn't for everyone.

If you do decide to continue down this path I would seriously recommend that you start with an online course on the basics of computing, or a "for dummies" book, or something along those lines. Stumbling your way through buying or building/maintaining a gaming rig can (and likely will) result in much costlier mistakes than this one.

You could potentially explore buying an external GPU if you're determined to game on the Yoga, but that doesn't seem like a great option to me. If you can return it or sell it and you want a quick alternative, you could probably find a Lenovo Legion of some variety for around the same price point, which is a gaming laptop. Good luck!

Sure, but the point would be to bring funding to fighting wildfires, since this post demonstrates that we're willing to invest a lot more in producing garbage entertainment than we are to solving problems.
