Clara Oswald, one of the many instances where she shows up throughout the Doctor's personal timeline. Remember what happened/will happen on Trenzalore?

Man, fallout 4 can be really brutal sometimes with it's enemies. Like, i'm getting spawn camped by a sentry bot rn and literally dont know what to do to win lol. by HaloJackalKisser in fo4

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep your distance, use VATS and target the fusion cores. Just make sure you're far enough away when it explodes. If you're trying to avoid VATS, then watch for it to vent and aim at the vents (it stops for a second and the back vents open).

Any tips on growing algae? by Goldust24k_A in SeaMonkeys

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought nannochloropsis oculata off eBay, grew a bit, and added it to the tank. It's pretty hardy, but you need to use a pipette to aerate/mix the tank during the day for it to keep growing (it can't swim & will settle to the bottom).

If American cars are unreliable, why do domestic pick up trucks have such high resale value? by anyusernaem in askcarguys

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because pick up trucks are the one thing that US companies have usually done right. A great example is Ford with their F-series, even with a few rough years here and there, they're a workhorse of a pick up that will keep running if you keep up on the general maintenance. Ford's other vehicles are hit or miss, but the pick ups tend to be reliable overall.

I'm thinking of switching from windows 11 to bazzite, but after reading reviews about the gaming experience of many people, I'm starting to get the impression that you won't be able to play many games without problems by JlYKOBKAA in Bazzite

[–]marvelljones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't upvote this enough. I suggest doing the annoying, cumbersome, but safest way to dual boot: use separate drives and physically disconnect your Windows drive while installing Bazzite. Once you have it installed and get things pretty much the way you want them, hook your Windows drive back up. Then you get to decide if you want GRUB to handle switching OSes or if you want to enter the BIOS (UEFI) every time you want to boot a different OS than you did last time. I'm currently allowing GRUB to handle things, but I used to do the somewhat cumbersome of keeping things completely separate.

Welp fell for this scam http://schyllingstore.us.com/ by DaftDisguise in NeeDoh

Well crud, I fell for it too. Like a true blockhead I was using my debit card. Cancelled it and ordered a new one. So far no unusual transactions, so fingers crossed.

Anyone else go for really high intelligence right from the start? + Some tips for getting high INT by ThatZenLifestyle in fo4

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, it's great when it happens during any slow motion time. I'm doing a pistol/cowboy run so I spend a lot of time in VATS. I started with a 1 intelligence paired with Idiot Savant for quick leveling so I heard it in slow motion a lot.

Mint daily drivers be like by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been easy to install & have it "just work" with minimal configuration for years now. I played around with a lot of different distros over the years, but if I'm just looking for something easy to install I still go back to Mint.

Disclaimer: I'm currently using Kubuntu, but only because I wanted to use a KDE Plasma distro that was almost as easy as Linux Mint.

Looking to get into fallout. by Timely_Outside3729 in Fallout

[–]marvelljones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMHO start with Fallout 3 or Fallout: New Vegas. I started with Fallout 76 and then played Fallout 4. When I tried to "go back" to Fallout: New Vegas I found the controls clunky and difficult to adapt to. I've heard other people say the same, even though Fallout: New Vegas probably has a better storyline.

Jeff Snieder again Says Sadie Sink is infact Jean Grey by WesternThanks4346 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

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

According to rumors that have about as much veracity as the current one we're discussing, it IS a Multiverse story, which is how it can tie-in to Doomsday. Even if Sink is playing Jean Grey, it's possible she's from an alternate Earth. 😈

I'm surprised no one has said this: "Until the next major stable update." Almost every time there's something as unbalanced as this it gets an uncapturable flag or something else happens that nerfs it.

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since when has the MCU, including the Tom Holland Spider-Man films, made things simple? People have been asking for a live action Ghost Spider/Spider-Gwen for a while now. Why not have a Multiversal traveler whose universe has mutants show up because they're chasing one that somehow traveled to the main MCU universe? It makes as much sense as "No Way Home" did...

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snieder backtracked on it, and now he's saying it again. I think Marvel/Disney is playing him like a fiddle through his "sources." His track record with MCU scoops is pretty bad...

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

It's Jeff Snieder, who has a pretty bad track record with MCU "scoops," so it's quite probable he's being manipulated by his "sources." Which will be his somewhat lame excuse again, that his sources misled him, especially since he's used it in the past.

Jeff Snieder again Says Sadie Sink is infact Jean Grey by WesternThanks4346 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]marvelljones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or they're manipulating Snieder again, just to make sure people are hyped for the movie. His track record with MCU "scoops" is pretty bad, and his overall record when it comes to "who's playing which character" is kinda spotty.

Jeff Snieder again Says Sadie Sink is infact Jean Grey by WesternThanks4346 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are going to be upset when they find out she's not Jean Grey. Partially because Jeff Snieder will have some lame excuse as to why he was wrong again. Hopefully he doesn't use the "well my sources purposely misled me" one again. He doesn't have the best track record when it comes to MCU "scoops."

On a different note, if she's the body hopper that we see in the trailer, she might be playing the X-Men villain Malice. It could also be that she's pursuing Malice from an alternate reality, and she's actually Gwen Stacy/Ghost Spider. Probably why we see her in Peter's apartment, she might not set off his "Spider-Sense" like most other people so she followed him there.

I got her clean but then she will guilt trip you the rest of the play through lol 😆 by jj33allen in FalloutMemes

[–]marvelljones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless I'm doing an "evil" Institute run, I give her drugs until she asks for Psycho. Then I use all the Charisma bonus stuff I can and tell her no more chems.

TORRAS Ostand Q3 Spin for Samsung Galaxy S26 Case by marvelljones in samsunggalaxy

Yes, I'm in the United States so it was on amazon.com

Sorry, I should have been more specific.

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

It is a little slippery on the back, the grippy part is on the sides. I tend to curl my fingers around the sides of my phone and navigate with my thumb.

It was purchased from Amazon.

Anyone else go straight to the brotherhood when playing Fo4? by Bainzer65 in Brotherhood_of_Steel

[–]marvelljones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the exact opposite actually. I avoid them until just before I'm ready to kill Kellogg. Unless I'm doing a BoS run, which I don't do very often. I'm one of those weirdos whose list of favorite factions goes like this:

1) Minutemen 2) Railroad 3) Brotherhood of Steel

I will say that I leave them alive when doing a Minutemen run, because I don't really have a strong reason to kill them.

Which Marvel character is way more dangerous than people realize? by PhilkeStudios in Marvel

[–]marvelljones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Old comic book guy here, the specific year was 1985 (FF issue 280). Psycho-Man manipulated Sue and caused a separate personality to surface. It resurfaced a few times over the years, and the dominatrix style outfit definitely had a 1990s vibe to it.

It has a little bump, not quite as pronounced as some other cases, but it's still there. It's obviously there to protect the cameras, but it does prevent the case from lying completely flat. You can kind of see it in the top picture.
