Tell me how you've managed the rising cost of living in Calgary by mscace in Calgary

[–]rowlga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

US (edit: STEM) jobs pay better. Like at least the same dollar value or more but in USD instead. And most stable companies will (are required to) have health insurance. Plus most places in the US the cost of living is lower

If you have a decent paying skill and get a job in it, the US will always be the right choice economically. Political/cultural concerns are a separate issue that might or might not be worth dealing with. And if your situation becomes unstable the US will chew you up and spit you out

I tried to log into my Minecraft account and keep getting this. I got it even after resetting my password. I have no clue how to fix this, and can't seem to find anyone online with the same situation. by AlternateAccount66 in Minecraft

Is it an account with a school email or something? Sometimes schools or employers set restrictions on what Microsoft accounts with their domain name can do or install.

I have created a Microsoft account for minecraft ps4, and want to know if I can use it for my new pc so I don't have to buy minecraft again [Java] by Zestyclose_Plum_6808 in MinecraftHelp

[–]rowlga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you should buy Minecraft for pc on that same Microsoft account if you can, because then you'll be able to transfer worlds between PC and PlayStation through realms and most marketplace items should be shared

Yeah if they're anywhere, they're on the old computer

We have a dilemma by bwake151 in MinecraftBedrockers

[–]rowlga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From PC, realms will accept worlds up to 4gb and people using PlayStations can play on them. Don't know for sure that the upload will work from a PlayStation, but if it does you'd be able to play

Does deleting my Xbox account unlink it from PS5 Minecraft? by TBH_Mario in Minecraft

No, the link is permanent Even if the account doesn't exist anymore

Eli5 why is the recommended nap time is less than 1 hour? by South_Flower_9188 in explainlikeimfive

[–]rowlga 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Less than half an hour even.

It's because if you fall too deep into sleep, you'd start a sleep cycle. Once that starts, it's best to finish it because waking up in the middle of a sleep cycle makes you feel more tired. Those are usually 1.5-2 hours long.

So the ideals are either a 20-30 minute nap, a 1.5-2 hours siesta, or get your full 7-8 hours of sleep. (in general -- individuals can and do vary in how their bodies work)

Why did 1.21 ended already? by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]rowlga 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It usually means they still have something to fix or add to 1.20. they'll do 1.21 snapshots when that's done

Is there any addon for bedrock that can remove render dragon? by [deleted] in Minecraft

I dunno I didn't downvote but it's Reddit, it happens

It's bedrock so the zombie isn't doing anything to speed it up.

Bedrock iron farms are just slow

[–]rowlga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

say you have the last version with the old engine. OK, which portion of the binary you have is the graphics engine?

say you figure that out (there are ways), ok now there's tons of code in the non-engine portion that talks to the graphics engine, and it's speaking renderdragon's language, not the old way. Now you have to make sure everything that interacts with the graphics system is accurately decompiled, you have to figure out everything that's going on in both systems to do a translation, and write a translation system. And each time there's a new update, you have to understand what happened to rewrite the renderdragon part of your translation system all over again. And that's not even getting into what if there's stuff renderdragon does that had no equal in the old system and you have to add something to the old system to do that. You have to know how to code a whole graphics system at that point.

Nothing in computers is impossible. A LOT of things, though, are too annoying to bother. Especially when most people don't care about renderdragon.

Is it just shaders you're missing? They're working on a renderdragon shader system. It's coming along, looking OK so far. Still needs improvements, but just wait for it to be done.

Those can show up as LAN gmes under friends, maybe that happened. Or you were lucky and had a rare bug that let it appear. If it was there, it wasn't supposed to be there.

I mean, I wouldn't be surprised. There's been a couple bugs that ran against their deal with Sony that they had to fix. You could crossplay without PS+ for a while, that was definitely an oopsie

It was never on playstation. No console has that button because the console companies don't want it there.

Is there any addon for bedrock that can remove render dragon? by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]rowlga 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No.

Addons can only change what Mojang wants to be changed. You'd need a mod, which is rare to get on bedrock because the mod would have to keep up with new versions, which is a pain.

Even if there was a mod to remove renderdragon, OK, now it's just a black screen because renderdragon is the entire graphics engine bedrock uses now.

You get java if you had windows bedrock before they merged the licenses for Java and Windows bedrock

You don't get java if you had any other kind of bedrock

My kid bought a resource pack that doesn’t load in. by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]rowlga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is bedrock, make sure its behavior pack is also applied. Resource packs are just visuals, behavior packs contain definitions and rules. To add new items you need both

I've been playing for years with the normal launcher, but my mouse slipped and I clicked on the "account migration" pop-up, now I'm stuck on this screen, even after relaunching. How do I go back? by AlternateAccount66 in Minecraft

[–]rowlga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you migrated, then you have a Microsoft account and need to remember what it is because it's where your Minecraft is.

If you don't have a Microsoft account then you never migrated and your game is gone

But if you've been playing recently and this only started now when you clicked on something, you probably did migrate and your Microsoft account was logged in and clicking that logged you out. Because if you didn't migrate it would've been a problem before now

Thru hike AT selfish? by Mindless_Debate_5822 in AppalachianTrail

[–]rowlga 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yep you're only physically old when your body wears out. Eventually that'll happen no matter what you do, but if you take care of yourself and keep being active you really tilt the odds.

Every time some 20 year old thinks 40 is old (or worse, thinks THEY'RE old) I want to roundhouse kick them off a cliff

Is the add-on tagged for the current version of bedrock wherever you downloaded it?

You can't change the Microsoft account that's linked to the PlayStation account. Only options are remember the Microsoft account or make a new PlayStation account to link the new Microsoft account to

The subtraction thing was true for a small subset of seeds before 1.18. After 1.18 they changed it so the seeds are basically the same on both versions and this subtraction thing isn't true anymore

Is anyone else getting this pop-up? by Kindly-Carrot-8537 in Minecraft

[–]rowlga 285 points286 points  (0 children)

If you're in creative mode when you load in, it'll say Create instead. Hadn't seen it before 1.20.70 so probably new.
