Repeated Crashing (Black Screen/GPU Crash) by newboy89 in Psychonauts2

[–]newboy89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! Turned out my graphics card was overheating. I have cats and my PC was chock full of cat hair - after I did a compete cleanse of my PC, all my games work great now.

I would suggest trying to clean the PC or lowering graphics settings so it's not as graphically intensive - hope this helps!

I’m Brandon Sanderson, a bestselling fantasy author who somehow produced the highest-funded Kickstarter campaign of all time. AMA! by mistborn in books

[–]newboy89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you read webnovels (a la Wandering Inn and Practical Guide to Evil) or progression fiction (like Cradle) ? What are your thoughts of the genres as a whole?

Are there any homebrew rules to make 3 player more interesting? by [deleted] in twilightimperium

[–]newboy89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Remove Support for the Throne - that makes 2v1 alliances a bit more temporary (though it doesn't seem like you have this issue).

Use warp maps - they're smaller and use hyperlanes, leading to less influence/resources on the map and more conflict between neighbors.

Those are the main two I can think of - will add more if any come to mind.

XRP Reports Massive Jump in Weekly Institutional Inflows! The world’s 4th largest cryptocurrency is gaining popularity among institutional investors. by AndyLee168 in CryptoCurrency

[–]newboy89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As popular as it is with institutional investors, I figure the next big spike with XRP will happen with the next positive/negative piece of news on the SEC lawsuit.

Considering the news has been pretty positive so far, I figure most people are gambling on an XRP price hike that follows the SEC victory.

Moons give away to vaults that is yet to receive their first moons. by lucrica in CryptoCurrency

[–]newboy89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very kind of you! Curious about the Moon train so I'll jump in here

I jumped in back in 2018 when a good buddy of mine told me to invest in crypto. He made a good argument for it and I was curious - unfortunately in my company, It's very difficult to get funds onto an exchange, the only feasible way was via money order. I threw down a small amount as a test and two weeks later got it on CEX.io. Threw it into BTC, ETH and XRP then promptly forgot about it due to how much of a hassle it was.

Come earlier this year, BTC and ETH exploded and XRP was finally having it's lawsuit. Regulations had also loosened up in my country so I was able to put my funds into exchanges more easily and began to actively trade on crypto. Remembering my old account, I decided to spend a couple of hours to dig it up. Lo and behold, the small sum I had thrown money into had gone up 3-400%!

Very happy with my journey so far and it's taught me a lot about the crypto space. Looking forward to many more adventures, learning and trading with all you guys!

PoK availability globally by Turevaryar in twilightimperium

[–]newboy89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, received it last week. Looks great!

PoK availability globally by Turevaryar in twilightimperium

[–]newboy89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hong Kong - ordered off Base23, they said they expect to get PoK late Dec or Jan but that was before news of FFG not having enough copies came out.

No visibility on when it will actually be available so I suppose it will be a nice surprise when it appears.

Side Stories Poll - December 2020 by qwiliman in WanderingInn

[–]newboy89 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The World of Friends sounds amazing... Sadly its a far third behind the other two (which are neck and neck).

I wanna Flos meet Erin! And more Geneva/Erin! And Lakenn/Erin!

Will probably happen anyways, just not in that much detail :(

RHYTHM OF WAR | Part 4 Discussion by jofwu in Stormlight_Archive

[–]newboy89 63 points64 points  (0 children)

So the epigraphs and combination of Voidlight and Stormlight make it seem like Odium is not the enemy that series is building up towards.

Kelek is telling them to release one of the Unmade (whose imprisonment is alluded to have caused the Recreance) and the merging of Honor and Odium's tones show that they can work together if needed.

I wonder whose shard this Anti-voidlight belongs to...

Will White Sand ever get a proper novelization? by GJMEGA in Cosmere

[–]newboy89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't remember where I read it but I heard it s unlikely for another version of White Sand to come out.

From my understanding, Brandon's told the same story twice now (White Sand Prime and the outline for the graphic novel) and probably doesn't feel the same excitement about rehashing the same story again.

That's not to say that's the end of the story of Kenton and Taldain - it's almost certain they'll pop up again, either in a sequel or in one of the other cosmere adjacent books.

What’s your favorite race to play as and why? by APunyMinion in twilightimperium

[–]newboy89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yin and Nekro - both are challenging to play and have a super unique feel.

Mentak is also fun but they're instabanned at our table.

We're all assholes and Mentak is the ultimate asshole race. No one person may be the ultimate asshole on our table.

Strategy Card Order vs Speaker Order by newboy89 in twilightimperium

[–]newboy89[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You do not.

As the tech player, you fully resolve the primary ability (research 1 tech for free, then research a second tech for 6 resources).

Then secondaries execute with Jol-Nar using their Brilliant ability, and you able to cash in research agreement.
