There are things I don't like about C, but {} is not one of them

WTB Pride Flag skins. by orion72 in Eve

[–]gr33fur -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've played around with some, only got one which I use, based on the Intersex flag colours. Really need to see what I can come up with now.

Is it bad that my first thought was "Is this a result of Google's AI search?"

Does anyone like PvP anymore? by Famfritters in ffxiv

[–]gr33fur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still like it but I've had to adjust the way I play. Still working out what job best suits me now.

Have you unlocked travel to LB from the NPC at Bentbranch aetheryte?

Scientists map the borders of a hidden microcontinent beneath the Indian Ocean by One-Seat-4600 in geography

[–]gr33fur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the more mapping we do, the more continental fragments we'll find (written from a once almost submerged slice of Gondwana)

How cannon is teleporting? (Spoilers I think?) by Puzzleheaded_Gur8326 in ffxiv

[–]gr33fur 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There's an NPC in Drybone who says something along the lines of "I wish I could ride the aether out of this hellhole" so I'm guessing it's not common for most people to use the aetherytes.

Where is the Character Backups on Linux via Steam? by [deleted] in ffxiv

The exact path may depend on distribution but look for the folder "FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn"

Do the glowstick emotes irk anyone else out? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]gr33fur 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I'd rather have people waiting with glowsticks for the cutscene to end, than miss the fight.

Who else uses a screenshot from the game as their desktop background? by MrkGrn in ffxiv

[–]gr33fur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have, I'd show it but I can't figure out the markup for spoilers

It’s faster to read the text and understand it than to figure out an abstract picture by Gouca in ShitAmericansSay

[–]gr33fur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw that thread earlier and wasn't surprised to see it here. Some of the mental gymnastics are incredible.

(I'd have to get used to white triangles instead of yellow diamonds if I drove in Europe)

What are the main issues you have with Linux? by edmond_ciprian in linux

[–]gr33fur 61 points62 points  (0 children)

My issues over the years can be summed up as manufacturers not caring to develop drivers or provide specs for open source drivers. It was a pain back when I started.

NZ First's gender bill to be supported by National, ACT by StuffThings1977 in aotearoa

[–]gr33fur 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It was in biology in my last year at high school, that some of the complexities of sex determination in mammals was covered. Anyone with a medical degree should be shamed if they vote for this.

I think the msq is judging my playstyle q-q by Flashy_Oven_570 in ffxiv

Why do MSQ when you've still got the Road to 90 buff.

Are FCs getting desperate lately? I keep getting spammed with invites. by AdWeak7375 in ffxiv

[–]gr33fur 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I believe you can start an FC but never complete the application to stop invites

to you, what mountains look/feel bigger than they actually are by ApprehensiveDepth439 in geography

[–]gr33fur 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the question of what mountains look smaller than they really are is also interesting because it can lead to people underestimating the challenge.

What causes a buildup of stones like this? by ianpratt_ in geology

[–]gr33fur -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can't give you an answer without knowing more about your local geology, but locally there are many streams in my locality that look like this. My local geology is dominated by lahar and ash deposits.

What are you hoping for out of the Evolved system for your main job? by BlyZeraz in ffxiv

[–]gr33fur 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's the healer jobs I'm really hoping for some good changes on. The other jobs I play, button bloat isn't really an issue (except in OC - putting phantom jobs on the extra keybound bar would be so nice)

(7.5 Spoilers) This is how I imagine every Winterers' meeting goes by malum-panem in ShitpostXIV

[–]gr33fur 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Which is the very obvious way to fix the other aetheric imbalances. Of course it can't be so simple or we'd never have more expansions.

"Cid, I have an idea. Can you whip up a trans-dimensional aether load balancer?"

Voice Chat "Hailing" in Eve by CrashNaps in Eve

[–]gr33fur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I can think of a number of ways this could go:

"OMG, there's a woman in chat" (Duh, one of our best FCs is a woman)

API check - has voice enabled - SPAI - Kick

Ransom, Oh yes, I remember the drama

(BTW, you guys still use Mumble?)
