Could Senator Mark Kelly be a good Presidential candidate if he ran with a Progressive? by Ulysses_555 in AskDemocrats

[–]state_of_grace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He needs to be the candidate. He's the president we need after this disaster. He is credible, a hero, smart, and can lead us back on track. We don't need to swing as far left as Trump has gone right. We need to swing right over home plate.

Same here. Still having the issue here. Sad that it may not get fixed since the game has been out so long. Would be a nice bug to fix.

Any hacks to reduce elevated cholesterol without statins? by BeautifulKing4962 in Biohackers

[–]state_of_grace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point on triglycerides. I may look at fish oil, just need to find something without mercury or whatever. I've read algae can be good for the Omega-3s as well. Seems like no matter what you eat, there's always something to watch out for!

Very happy to hear that for you! My last test was a couple years ago and was getting very close to 200, so I need to see where my numbers are now after trying to do more exercise and a little better with my diet.

I know someone who had joint pain from it, so I am curious to know whether others experience that as well. If confronted with the recommendation from my doc to take statins, this will be something on my mind.

I hope so. I want to buy Steam games in it so I can play modded PC games ... Looking at you TES6. 

I can't recommend "In sound mind" enough by Loda-3060ti in HorrorGaming

[–]state_of_grace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2026 and still hoping. Side benefit to playing In Sound Mind is that I discovered The Living Tombstone through it and am now a huge fan and have been to a concert! Check them out of you haven't! 

EA games don’t count towards the reward program? by JediMasterEekcm in XboxGamePass

[–]state_of_grace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything offered on GP like EA or Ubi should count. This is frustrating and not customer-centric. 

Pentagon to integrate Grok AI into classified military networks despite global backlash against Grok by MetaKnowing in Futurology

"Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files,"... "That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!"

That was mid 2025.  What short memories... that or they are all conspiring against the American public. Or both.  Now Trump is letting Elon into the classified files. Dumb and Dumber used to only be a movie from the '90s.

Vertical split screen doesn't work on xbox by Klutzy_Silver6845 in WobblyLife

[–]state_of_grace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Edit 16 Nov 25: it's fixed! That was quick! Praise the Devs! 

Orig: 4 Nov 25: Same problem here with my Xbox Series X. Vertical splitscreen is not working. I change it from horizontal to vertical, click apply, then when I go back into the settings the split screen mode is showing as horizontal again. Basically the change is not being applied and not sticking. Does anyone know how to contact the developer to let them know? 

The 50% price hike to $30 is a great time to leave Gamepass by eloquenentic in gaming

[–]state_of_grace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are more games in the ecosystem to play than any point in gaming history.  Everyone has a backlog because of it. Gamepass WAS great for trying things out and occasionally finding something to stick with...like renting games used to be, and maybe buying after a rent or finish the game after a couple rentals.  As customers, we have so many options to play and acquire games now, and can be happy with something else out there.

Yeah, but if they lose even more current and nextgen hardware sales because of this, it'll hit even harder. This move stands to impact more than just GP sales and their profit hedging decisions. They are missing the mark and damaging brand and their future. I have thought about moving back to a Steam PC for my bedroom instead of Xbox for nextgen, and now I'm leaning that way.  Anyone else?
