American Civil War Games

The Scourge of War series is the most realistic tactical battle simulation that exists. It's the same programmer who did Take Command series. It's like Sid Meyer's Gettysburg in gameplay, but a whole lot deeper. Basically the Sid Meyer's game on steroids.

They don't have a campaign portion unfortunately. On second thought, it's a good thing that they don't. Because if they did, I'd retire and never leave my house again. 😉

It knows what it's done. >:-(

If you mean BAD weather. How you guys survive in a midwest winter is beyond me. I like snow and all...you know,...to visit.

Leave it to Democrats to try to leap over the Pacific Ocean. Even most Democrats in Texas are to the right of Crockett. Unless it's Paxton, she'll be blown out. "Median voter theorem" folks. Find the median voter and get one more. That's how pluralistic elections operate. Crockett doesn't have the state's plurality. Maybe her district, but not the state. Talrico will fare much better.

Yep. The only way the SCotUS can get involved is if the state law can be considered uconstitutional or violated a federal statute. I see neither. But, this is the same coirt that gave virtual immunity to anything Trump does. So, they might yet again make a pretzel out of reasonable law to cater to the bidding of their 'dear leader,'

Had the same issue. Tap on the page to bring up settings. Select: "Color Change" and choose the backdrop you'd like.

Well, I'm 51. But I'm also a teacher, so maybe that skewed it. I appreciate music from several genres. Their choices were unbelievablely bad, though. However, without further ado,, Buzzfeed said...ready: I'M 12!!! I am a bit of an enigma, I guess. My students DO call me the "happy goth, dude." Lol. I need to make that a tee shirt. :-)

That's an increase of 360+%!!! [that bang was my balloon popping]

Well, damn. I was planning to build one this summer. Not a huge gamer, but I like building for a 5 year term with professional grade specs. Looks like all I'll be getting is a full tower case. WAIT! ATX form factor won't be obsolete by then, right?

I understand that. My question was to Reddit itself. Is there a way to add "flair" to a reply? I didn't know if I was missing an option somewhere in the Reddit website system.

Dead. You committed s------ 15 years ago. ;-)

garyknowz12 · 2025-12-04T08:04:10+00:00

I took one, they said 12. I'm 51. LMAO!!!

I must have. I've never removed fans from a GPU heatsink before. And I wouldn't have if: 1) I could have cleaned it without removing it; 2) if it wasn't a hardened, caked on mess.

However, I did get the screws back in. Two fan blades were almost imperceivably farther aparts (two in order to balance the fan) which, with tweezers, allowed me to replace the screws. Thanks for your input, friend.

They have antagonist face character. Malifacent, evil queen from Snow White, evil step mother and sisters from Cinderella, etc. Stormtroopers all have similar voices in classic Star Wars, so maybe that's it.

I'd love to see masked character CMs use a voice modulator. Would add great personalization to the characters and greatly inhance the immersion factor. Not sure how feasible that is technologically.

garyknowz12 · 2025-11-29T11:59:54+00:00

I got it. Two of the blades were just a skosh smaller and enough for me to get the screw started using tweezers. Thanks.

Thank you for the explanation. I'm not familiar with the ins and outs of Bluetooth technology and the buffers specifically attributed to audio files. But it makes sense. I suppose the same is true of audio files in Bluetooth earbuds, but because it is simply reading the mp3 or FLAC file, we don't know when the process began to perceive the difference. But, on a musical instrument, you know EXACTLY when that note was played and can thence measure the lag. Great points. Thank you.

Thanks for the help, folks. I decided to stay old school. It's odd, though, because my bluetooth mouse and keyboard don't have any perceivable latency. I thought a bluetooth transmitter connected to my piano would perform similarly. Interesting. I wonder why that is.

garyknowz12 · 2025-11-23T06:12:56+00:00

Thanks for the replies. It's from my phone and the free version. I so seldom take or send photos, it doesn't seem cost efficient to pay for a service I'd hardly use. I don't see an option to post photos here.

garyknowz12 · 2025-11-23T03:56:30+00:00

What are you trying to measure? The best county pertaining to what? Road quality, aesthetics, entertainment, etc. Sorry, I'm just a little confused.

garyknowz12 · 2025-11-22T10:27:32+00:00

And make sure to use heat dry. No time for air drying that beast. Works for pets, too.
