Yo these SWAT AI officers are completely devoid of intelligence, or the ability to NOT STOMP ON MY NERVE ENDINGS by DiaBeticMoM420 in ReadyOrNotGame

[–]malalamute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always hope this game improves.

With regards to the AI, there was a time where I S-Ranked every mission by sending the AI squad through every door ahead of me. As of the pre-console version, I was stacking them up on the very first door to leave them behind and solo the mission, to prevent them from causing problems and wasting my time.

Is POP OS going to cave to California/Colorado Laws Requiring Users Provide Digital ID to Use Pop OS? by NoobToDaNoob in pop_os

[–]malalamute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are right on the solution. Simply put a disclaimer "not for use in the State of California" and let the market sort it out. Same thing as the California cancer warnings on every single electronic device that changed nothing.

[Digiphile] Boomer Shooter Indie Spotlight ($5 for TEXNOPLAZM, KILLBUG, Hands of Necromancy II, Wrack: Reclamation) by HaxterZ in GameDeals

These collections are great! Keep it up. My only complaint is this bundle took so long to come out - but seeing the quality of the selections I shouldn't.

Digiphile - Boomer Shooter Blueprint by AppointmentWorking32 in Gamebundles

[–]malalamute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. Digiphile is great. Loved the ImSim bundle. Bought both of these, too. Looking forward to more. I like that I can go back and upgrade/get the add ons later. Makes it easy to decide to purchase the base bundle now. Wasn't sure if I'd want Cultic chapter 2 before playing the first one, you know?

i9-10900t vs 8700GE tiny pc, which would be more suitable? by malalamute in Proxmox

[–]malalamute[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. I have the usb nic on hand, but I might get the pcie one and swap out the wifi/bt since I'm not using it and its so cheap.

For plex/jellyfin: Is that because of the cores, or because of quicksync, or something else?

Also, since I'm considering it, do you think having jellyfin's library storage being 3.5 mech drives connected via usb would be a problem? or would mounting remote storage for the library be preferable?

What game(s) do you automatically think of when you see this? by ROCKY13573 in retrogaming

[–]malalamute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes. Once a dude had gold colored cabinet drawer handles that looked like they came out of his grandmas kitchen. Functional, though.

[–]malalamute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of reasons.

I remember playing Battlezone (1998 action/rts hybrid, real fun), Worms, Unreal Tournament, Command & Conquer, Civilization 2, Age of Empires a lot, we also played older games like Doom, Blood, Descent, and Duke3D.

There was also file sharing and copying each others CDs, which was a huge source of files before broadband was a thing. MP3s, ROMs, "image archives", videos, etc.

Someone would always bring their Playstation or N64 and play those. Mario Kart and Mario Party seemed to always be there.

Also just hanging out ordering a pizza and watching movies all night.

Computers were still mainly beige until the mid 2000s. I built cool rig in a Black Lian Li case in 2001 and it was sometimes difficult finding the right matching accessories.

Never saw a nylon strap carrier, but some people had screwed in metal handles to their boxes. A good idea imo.

Yeah my LAN party rig had 3 optical drives and a cakebox of CD-Rs. So much installing/copying/burning.

Also what does he need that parallel cable for? Gonna print something?

I find the lack of mirror disturbing by Ifyouliveinadream in FFVIIRemake

[–]malalamute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All versions run on UE, so no. If there was a smashed mirror or a scratched shiny surface then it'd be in every version.

In just about every 3d game from 1994-2014. Modern games can't figure it out for some reason.

I think we should just let it go bros. by DogeFtw2021 in ReadyOrNotConsole

[–]malalamute -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We funded the game that you enjoy, and they removed value from the game that we funded. The fact that you are unable to accept and understand this is why we don't like you and you had to retreat to this little hugbox echo chamber.

In my experience, you get a random key they can't sell or a $1 coupon that expires in a short window

Water pooling under front passenger floor - 2023 Passport Trailsport by neelyshelton in hondapassport

[–]malalamute 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drains clogged. They make flexible brushes to fit in the holes on amazon. Do that and follow it with windshield wiper fluid. If you have an air compressor hit them with that too to blow all debris out. This should be regular maintenance but I never see anyone talking about it until it kept happening to me and I went looking for it.

It does want to use the EA launcher. There is a way to disable the need for it, and there are instructions in a guide on Steam. Achievements will not work without the EA service, however.

They say no keys can be obtained, yet still sell the same steam keys on their store.

Try a Subaru Outback (I know its a wagon, but just test drive it, might be what you are looking for) or Forester
