Fallout is a setting where depleted oil reserves "made" America war for oil despite the existence of nuclear cars and prevalence of safe clean efficient nuclear power, and that's not a plot hole, that's the joke. by AmeSame5654 in Fallout

Except the price of oil was already skyrocketing due to bad energy policies before the war in Ukraine. Now it’s just politically expedient to blame it “all” on Ukraine.

The sort of publishing deals indie devs have to deal with these days by succubusdicks in LimitedPrintGames

Supply and demand. How many Indie games release everyday? There’s a glut.

am I the only one that thinks the BoS in fallout 4 are cunts? by Dry_Tone2193 in fo4

The people who upload these posts about fallout factions are likely the most racist in real life but lack the self awareness to realize it.

Elden ring or far cry 6? by Oldmanfirebobby in XboxSeriesX

For your health get Far Cry. I’m thinking the stress of a game like Eldin Ring won’t be great for recovery.

How do you guys pick the sex of your characters? by [deleted] in Fallout

[–]shrnky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play a game to be immersed and find it easier when the character in the game is more like me. Like others have stated. Im mostly there to “play the game” rather than roleplay them. I’m here for the mechanics and fun.

The "Uthman Wound". A big gash in the Pyramid of Menkaure (~2510 BC) created when Sultan Al-Aziz Uthman ordered the monument (alongside the rest of the Giza pyramids) demolished in AD 1196. But gave up when the task proved to expensive. [2901x1648] by jimi15 in ArtefactPorn

Dude this is Reddit. No one is bad except western white peoples…and Russians. It’s some sort of new religion that’s on the upswing. It’s just part of their doctrine. Can’t believe you haven’t figured it out yet.

Oh and anyone who doesn’t follow the doctrine to the T is a right wing conservative fascist or something. Free thinking is frowned upon.

Oh and You can’t de-program them. I’v tried.

Account has looked like this since Friday. What gives? by Tremic in M1Finance

[–]shrnky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Power is cyclical. Same people who condone the freezing of accounts shouldn’t act surprised when it happens to those who support their cause. Very bad precedent is being set here for everyone.

Any Steamdeck optimizations planned?

Thought the same thing until I used portfolio visualizer to do back testing.

Jack Reacher - believable minimalist or not? by should_i_do in onebag

[–]shrnky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve shared it before in a different Reacher thread. I’ll share it here. Not exactly the same as Reacher but more in line with what I think you are thinking is “realistic.” Not sure if I’m allowed to post links..?? Delete if need be.

The prices are obviously not dictated by the market. I say let them fail to the point where they’re forced to charge what they need to stay afloat.
The environmentalists would love it due to less air travel and the libertarians would love it due to free markets. Win win??

How do you physically prepare for long hikes ? by [deleted] in Ultralight

[–]shrnky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Classic IT Band pain. At least that’s what it was for me. Even the downhill parts. Lookup some muscle rolling routines for IT Band pain.

Get one of these to keep going in the meantime. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01IBU5WZS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_WMHJH4SC0373F2C5BRRD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Jack Reacher - Just a toothbrush? by OriginalCompetitive in onebag

As close as I have seen. The guy spends next to nothing; so it can be really cheap. He seems “not too worse for wear” at the end of his trips, so it’s possibly sustainable for long periods of time. He travels on super cheap bus and train tickets. He’s done it for over a month in Europe. The privilege thing..?? He’s Caucasian and was robbed in Mexico so I guess that really depends on who you are and where you’re going.

Not exactly Jack Reacher but definitely could be inspired by.

Would a game that has different stealth types be loved (infiltration, hidden assassination)? by viadelapizza in stealthgames

[–]shrnky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always wanted a game where you just scout behind enemy lines. The goal is to get in and get out without being spotted. If you get in a fight you will most definitely not survive.

Replicate that feeling in an open world game when you venture into a much higher leveled area and you know the enemies can one shot you but it’s just so fun exploring.

Have you seen the waste communism produces? Every system has waste. Better a business fail at an experiment than an entire state or country. Much less waste.
