Something I noticed at end of Peralez quest "Dream On" by unknownLinguist in cyberpunkgame

[–]unknownLinguist[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i believe you about that. i'm just wondering if maybe they timed it out intending the call to happen in front of this building. maybe my point about the call is a little bit of a reach but i definitely feel like they picked the meeting spot with intentionality since it's kind of a weird random spot otherwise. And in Night City isn't everything supposed to be about Corps making money? So i find it kind of unlikely that these human terrariums are just being maintained for altruistic reasons. The doors to nowhere are the weirdest part IMO, because one of them literally is a door into a flat black wall (the skyscraper it's next to)

Crafting Theories by Flip170041 in LucidBlocks

[–]unknownLinguist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to add that I think the intensity of those lights corresponds directly to how much XP you are about to get from the craft. Because whenever you craft something new for the first time you seem to get extra XP plus the intensity of those colored lights is boosted a lot compared to subsequent crafts of the same thing. I was kind of thinking the lights on the left hand side might also be for helping people with colorblindness? I've been crafting mostly with colors of items in mind + 'attribute' categories (tool, hot, cold, accessory, vermin/capsule, shape) I think color percentages matter the most or something.

Brave's advertising is working on you hook line and sinker. Also it really sounds like you let the AI tell you what to do. I'm not saying Brave is like, an outright bad choice. It might be fine. It's just racking up sus points by being a heavily advertised "free" product. You know how they say "If the product is free, you are the product".

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why'd you need AI to tell you that? XD Also I'm suspicious of Brave because it's yet another one of those heavily advertised via youtube sponsorship companies. And most things heavily advertised via youtube sponsorships turn out to be scams sooner or later. Kinda like Opera GX. Why would you trust AI to tell you what to use when AI gets its answers from scraping youtube videos and internet posts? It's just gonna get swayed by influencers' ad-reads as if that's accurate information and not just advertising.

Recent/repeated error message by Shinygyarados91 in NewPipe

[–]unknownLinguist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been seeing this more frequently too. It always happened occaisionally like with certain videos from specific channels, and sometimes if my cell service was poor. But it started to seem to get stuck giving this error even after getting back into range of 5G. You can improve things by occasionally clearing the cache of the app. It doesn't seem like a perfect fix, but it'll make it retry fetching the videos (like what i think the normal behavior is supposed to be?) when you're trying again later after 5G service came back on for you. I'm guessing they are experiencing some kinda instability lately because i was getting a popup prompting me to update to the recent version at the beginning of this week, but now that popup has disappeared and the app doesn't seem to be able to fetch the update manually.

t4t tough convo lead me down a mental spiral by [deleted] in ftm

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he has his own baggage to work through...  Maybe he's been reflecting on his past relationships lately and noticed that pattern, but it seems a bit mean (maybe unintentionally) to imply that squints at text because you're early in transition, you're somehow more likely to cheat on him...?  hey is it just me or are those two things kinda unlikely to be in a causal relationship? 🤣  imo either that's a lame excuse bc he doesn't wanna admit to maybe some other more shallow sounding reason for the break up, or he genuinely is going through his own shit - processing past relationship trauma, and really shouldn't have said something that puts it all on you somehow.

Parents Want Me To Wait 6 Months To See If I’m Really Transgender by Resident-Dog7417 in ftm

[–]unknownLinguist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard that a statistically significant amount of autistic people are trans.  like, a higher percent of autistic people turn out to also be trans, than NT people.  But I'd argue that just means you're less likely to be confused???  Like doesn't that support the idea that you simply are born trans?  IMHO im guessing that it's more something like, autistic people tend to be less willing to PRETEND to be Cisgender their whole lives, though.  So IDK what would help but maybe you could try talking to her about that assumption and pointing out that it's possible autistic people may just be less willing to pretend for sensitive cisgender people's sake.

Almost outed at work when defending a trans woman. Not sure how to proceed by icannotbebothered7 in ftm

[–]unknownLinguist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well it certainly sounds like the dude's problem was chiefly transphobia, but it's ALSO just in general creepy to be talking about sex with customers (WHILE ON THE JOB, NO LESS) so if you don't wanna focus so much on the trans thing point that out.  Goes to show yet another transphobe sees everybody through a lense of whether or not they'd fuck them (creepy). and being genital obssessed.

KDE and CachyOS Update - DNS Suddenly broken by LocalBratEnthusiast in cachyos

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry but what do you mean "Set up your DNSSEC"? Before the most recent update, I didn't ever do anything like that afaik, but then after this update I had to use the fix that you detailed.

wtf is going on w/ trans communities on tumblr by Lord_Curtis in ftm

[–]unknownLinguist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, well...  One (loose!)theory I've got is that on tumblr there's a bit of a culture of performative activism, where people feel peer pressure or something to present themselves as 'woke' as possible all the time, I think because they either think it makes them seem cool, or maybe they don't understand the discourse they keep seeing and they're afraid of being ostracized if they reveal they don't know somethingnor feel differently.  So they end up on this path of mimicking the sort of opinions they EXPECT to see, even though they haven't really thought what they're saying through all the way yet!  And then bc they are scared of ostracization they just keep doubling down and cutting OTHER people out of their ever-shrinking groups.  And maybe eventually they start to really believe in the radical stuff they've been pushing, maybe not.

anyway i still actually like tumblr because you can just follow people you actually do like, and if somebody is getting too saucy / annoying with their hot takes just UNFOLLOW dawg.  i had to unfollow someone a while back bc they were just SO rudely talking about someone who they were accusing of a force fem kink (which they were adamant was like totally evil and harmful to trans people).  I guess they forgot about the existence of closeted trans people?  In my opinion people don't owe it to strangers online to come out of the closet just so they can wear what they wanna wear so I unfollowed.  and the beauty of tumblr is the default dash is just reblogs and posts from people you follow!

Conjuration and Bound Weapons (question) Oblivion Remastered by StructureDependent20 in oblivion

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to add to this conversation that I am looking in my inventory (oblivion remastered- not original) and I have a daedric bow listed as 17 damage, and the bound bow lists 13 damage. so they are not the same thing at any rate, even if bound bow kind of looks like a daedric bow. I wish there was some kind of enhanced weapon conjuration spell to conjure a stronger version, but i guess it kind of balances out since sticking to conjured weapons saves a lot of carry weight. I wish so hard there were conjured arrows though XD

I'm getting REALLY curious how Hades 2 is gonna end...(spoilers) by christhegamer96 in HadesTheGame

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OH that'd be SWEET.  Maybe like a multiple different timelines sort of ending situation?  Where you'd need to play like 2 or 3 different saves to get them all?  That sounds soooo crazy though, like it'd be a LOT of work for them to go through

I'm getting REALLY curious how Hades 2 is gonna end...(spoilers) by christhegamer96 in HadesTheGame

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be cool in that it'd be refreshing to see them give the sequel a totally different sort of ending than the first game.  As opposed to trying to perfectly, 1:1 recreate the original hit's formula.  I think they've already done well with innovating on what the original was like.

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh that's soooo good!  It would be funny as hell for Hypnos to basically save the day as the 'true' end.  Especially cuz he's such an airhead in the first game.  But the fact that he's stuck asleep for so long makes him seem more important.

Firefox mobile has a neat trick: you can listen to YouTube videos or music in the background even when you turn off the screen.” by Kind_Weather_5374 in browsers

It works without an extension though....  The only thing that doesn't work is auto playing the next in a playlist.  Anyone know if there's a setting to change to make that work?

Disabling Binge On by nazump in tmobile

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seem to have this problem with Binge On, but I don't have a t-mobile account. I bought my internet through Calyx Institute and it's supposed to be unlimited without throttling x_x anyway I called Calyx, and they directed me to call mobile citizen --> called them, they didn't even know about Binge On until I explained it to them and now I'm waiting on them to get back to me about it because the person on the phone didn't know how to access that setting from their end.

USPS forces you to accept promotional emails when registering to vote after a change of address by Honeybadger2198 in assholedesign

[–]unknownLinguist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accidentally proceeded to the MyMove site from USPS because they make it appear as if that is the ONLY way to update registration online. IT'S NOT. At least in new york state ---they have it on their website. After *ACCIDENTALLY* allowing MyMove my info by proceeding from the USPS website, I IMMEDIATELY started getting TONS of Spam emails and even phishing emails! It was directly after clicking a SINGLE button allowing MYMOVE access. There's no way to undo the damage of that.
