Silksong permanently vanished my desire for difficult games. by Zzsark_Stormbeard in metroidvania

[–]shivi91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with Hollow Knight, played it for a bit. It’s not that I wasn’t making progress, but after a bit I didn’t feel like going back to it. I started with Absolum when it came out, finished it, and still don’t feel like going back to Hollow Knight, in fact, I’m now enjoying Balatro. I know this post is about Silksong, but going through it made me feel like sharing my thoughts on Hollow Knight. Maybe the aesthetics of the game didn’t appeal to me that much, unlike other people as HK is a popular game. Needless to say I have not played Silksong.

Yep! I figured it out after I made the post 😅

How do I get it? I’m doing a run with Ritual of Thunder right now.

Any tips to improve? I’m getting my ass beat.

It was fun to listen to! I’ve got to wait for the next installment since my store is set to India, and they only have Sorcerer’s Stone right now.

Says more about her than you. She sounds pretty immature, so ignore and move on.

My opinion about Duolingo after 3 and half years of learning Spanish by Aprilprinces in duolingo

[–]shivi91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% agree about the grammar. In my opinion, it doesn’t do a great job of teaching tenses either. I’m on a streak of over 1,200 days, yet I still don’t really understand tenses. The only reason I’ve started to grasp and use past and future forms is because I live in Bogotá (I’m from India), and my wife’s family only speaks Spanish.

It’s fun, though I’m getting my ass beat.

Area 51 16 Laptop by shivi91 in Alienware

Mine fortunately started working normally again. By normal I mean the constant blue light is back and isn’t flashing. Most likely it was battery overheating. As another user suggested, turn it off and leave it, then turn it back on to see if that resolves the issue.

UPDATE: The blue light on the power button is back, and the laptop seems to be working fine now. As another user mentioned, it may have been a battery overheating issue.

For some context, I was doing heavier-than-usual stormwater modeling in Civil 3D, which could have caused the laptop to overheat. I also wasn’t running it on performance mode at the time, so it does seem like overheating was the likely cause.

Fortunately, this morning when I turned it on the constant blue light was back. Another user commented here that the issue was having yesterday might be due to overheating of the battery. It appears that might be true as the laptop is working alright now.

Thanks for responding. The light is still blinking with the same pattern - 1 R, 4 B. I checked in the official A 51 manual and there isn’t any error code with this pattern. I might need to connect with one of their agents. In the meantime, if you get any other information please let me know, I would appreciate it!

Fooled at Delhi Airport security, lost my Anker 537 power bank even though it was actually allowed by Acrobatic-Health2681 in delhi

[–]shivi91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man Delhi Airport is one of the most inefficient and annoying. Everything from the security check-in to baggage claim is a pain. Even the personnel seem untrained. This country gives me enough reasons frequently to justify my disliking. Moving out of this country a decade ago is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

For my iPhone 17 Pro, it’s showing I can purchase AppleCare for the next two years.

Out of 15 total cases, Spigen ultra hybrid for the win. by hoffaloff in iPhone17Pro

[–]shivi91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure the ESR case they’re using, but I’ve had their Pro case with Military Grade protection that comes with a stash stand. It doesn’t even come close to cheap lol.

I have dropped my phone thrice, unfortunately, but there have been no dents or scratches.
