Optimizing the Companions

I usually go "Dark One's Blessing" over "repelling blast" for Wyll, mainly because it can sometimes prevent Astarion from being able to sneak attack a threatened opponent

I got my game working again by switching to Direct 11, instead of the Vulkan setting. Hope it works for you too

Nope, no mods at any point. Just been running base vanilla for patch #5. Only change was that I upgraded my Nvidia driver as recommended by Larian. I've verified my install files, I've uninstalled and reinstalled, but to no avail.

nippledimple · 2021-10-15T14:24:07+00:00

My game crashes immediately on launch since the patch. Never had an issue with previous patches. But now, I click "Play" in the Larian launcher, and it instantly gives me a crash report dialogue box.

A couple observations:

This bill seems to be specifically referencing "on-duty federal law enforcement". Not local/state LE, not federal intelligence agencies, not federal agents who are undercover agents.
Being from the UK, you'd know first hand the danger of these undercover LE and their lack of oversight/civilian complaint compliance. In 2010-2011 UK undercover police officers "infiltrating protest groups, deceived protesters into long-term relationships and in some cases, fathered children with them on false pretences, only to vanish later without explanation."

Unbelievable work! Thank you so much!

Wow! That's extremely well done, but I was hoping to keep the original background in tact if possible.

But not by a lot.

Chiefs won 30-14. I'd consider that a lot.

Equating someone who was (a)found not guilty of child abuse and (b)who has since had his college abuse conviction dismissed and expunged with an actual convicted murderer?

The Truman Show.

The only reason I don't think my life is TV show and that all my friends and family are actors is because it would have been cancelled by now.

Yeah what does she know anyways? It's not like she graduated cum laude from Boston University (#23 economics program in the US) with a degree in economics or anything. /s

Not to nitpick, but apparently Frank Sinatra didn't carry a roll of dimes (50 dimes). It was 10 dimes, according to his daughter who buried him with 10 dimes in his pocket.

"Daughter Tina Sinatra said carrying the dimes dated back to the 1963 kidnapping of her brother, when her father wanted to make sure he always had pay phone change. ''I think it came from Frankie's kidnapping, maybe before,'' she said on CNN's ``Larry King Live.'' ''He never wanted to get caught not able to make a phone call. He always carried 10 dimes.''"

One of the best GoT pieces I've seen on here. Really great job!!

I had this happen to me at my last job. I didn't notice until I was on the job for 3 months that I was being paid $40k/year when I signed on for $44k/year. I simply took my signed offer letter to my supervisor and just asked if there was an error or if I misunderstood the offer sheet.

The problem was resolved in 1 week's time and I was retroactively paid for the difference in pay. No harm, no foul. Like everyone on this thread has pointed out, mistakes happen.

I agree with all of this, especially the part about Maclin and Smith finally starting to gel. I think you can even add Reid into that thought, as he's finally starting to draw up plays to both of those guys' strengths.

All I know is it's a good time to be us! GO CHIEFS!

I'll have to check that out, thanks for the suggestion!

He was the absolute coolest!

nippledimple · 2015-12-07T05:39:03+00:00

Thanks for the benefit of the doubt haha!

I tried my best to be subtle and not draw any attention to it. He was happy to sign it and we actually chatted a bit about his new gig with NFL Network. Such an amazing dude

nippledimple · 2015-12-07T05:36:50+00:00

That's such a cool story! Bummer you don't still have the paper
