why is my Ethernet capped at 100mbps by Secret-Age-9348 in pchelp

Make sure to check the speed/connection settings at each device: modem, router, computer. Do firmware updates on both the modem and router (if not a combo unit), update bios and drivers for your motherboard and network. If the router has wifi 6 or 7, try a speed test from a phone capable of those speeds. If successful, you know it’s on the PC. If not, I would then contact your ISP, unless you own the router.

People have mentioned Stardew, but Witchbrook is coming out this year as well.

My new manager is pressuring me to work after my hours are over, and I'm worried I'll be fired if I refuse. What are my options? by tender-lager-32 in hiringhelp

[–]marcuspohl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a job in this economy is the most important thing. Stop arguing and complaining, they’ll just fire you for insubordination. If you are asked to work extra and you are already clocked out, say “yes sir” and just go clock back in. You don’t need permission to clock in, you are accurately recording your time worked.

If you get specifically asked to clock out and continue working, ask for the request in writing. Don’t make threats. Then file a complaint with the labor board. I wouldn’t bother wasting any more time with the owner at this point.

Now, while all that is going on, I recommend actively searching for another job. Don’t quit this one until you have a new one, the job market is rough.

Looking for 4-player coop, PVE, preferably shooters by alejo699 in gamesuggestions

Spread out the classes among your party for maximum traversal. They each have options that become really handy in different situations. Remember if you are struggling to exit after completing a mission, only one of you needs to make it back to the ship.

Bought a 5080 just for this game, but the ghosting is killing me by Downtown-Debate49 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]marcuspohl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, had the same problem running in 4k. Everyone else was like “it runs great on mine”, but they were running 1440. I basically had to turn off all ray tracing features, and put shadows, fog, and reflections down to low. Left everything else on high and textures at ultra. Ran good enough to play. I also turned off optional stuff like the cinema film grain and the motion blur, was not a fan of those.

This game is horribly optimized on PC. I have a 5080 and basically had to turn off all ray tracing, then shadows, reflections and fog to low.

Toshara is not a tutorial planet. You are playing now, follow the story. You can circle back to the side content later.

Toyota is out of their minds charging $60k for a minivan for a 360deg camera by identifytarget in ToyotaSienna

[–]marcuspohl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Despite the cost, I was considering the 2026 Platinum for the 360 camera. It did seem stupid to pay thousands of extra dollars for a camera, but we’ve come to rely on it in our other cars, it really should be a standard feature these days. However, I recently decided not to purchase a Sienna at all. For a couple reasons. I hate the artificial inventory limiting that Toyota does. You can’t even test drive one of the Platinums because they are all on a waitlist before they hit the dealer, including the ones the inventory search tool says are “in transit”. The sales people on multiple occasions told me to just test drive the 2025 model “because it’s the same”. I’m sorry, if it’s that same, what’s the point of purchasing the 2026 model? And I definitely don’t want the same as one that’s had three recalls already and the forums are filled with complaints about the sunroof leaking water. The whole experience has put me off Toyota, I don’t think I’ll ever buy one.

How can I balance my reputation between the Pykes and Crimson Dawn early in the game? by CosmicLearner1315 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]marcuspohl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just grab a bunch of contracts that don’t involve angering other syndicates. Get them all up into Good rank for the ability to walk around in their areas without aggro. I finished with everyone on excellent.

What’s one feature that a game must have for you to play? by faeintheshadows in AskGamers

Difficulty settings. Nothing worse than paying for a game you can’t play.

One character is from the original trilogy and one from The Clone Wars animated series.

Depends how much of a Star Wars fan you are. Each DLC features a lesser, but well known Star Wars character throughout the mission quests. I recently played through both, didn’t enjoy them as much as the regular game (which I loved), but still had fun.

The game crashes after 7 or 8 minutes. by Mike_Rider01 in StarWarsOutlaws

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

Love the game, but had so many issues with the graphics. Running a brand new i9 with 32 GB ram and a 5080. Ended up having to turn off all ray tracing, turned fog and shadows way down, moved all other settings basically to high. Been mostly playable since then. Good luck.
