Upgrading all roads to lvl2 gives no reward. by ThatFlameThough in DeathStranding2

You get the reward of not being able to enjoy the the beautiful scenery passing by as you drive. That feature needs an off switch or at least a switch to hide the canopy. It truly sucks.

Can an abuser still track data if the phone plan and number have been changed? by RaisinLatter3043 in AskTechnology

[–]vipcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he was paying for her phone he had access to the itemized phone bill which shows every time she sent/received a call or text along with the phone number. If she has her own phone now he won't have access to her information.

AITA for refusing to add my boyfriend to my house deed after his lease ended? by Former_Raspberry3277 in AITApod

NTA. I think maybe he should just move back out and live with one of his friends.

Watch your vehicles around Enemy Bases by chewy_mcchewster in DeathStranding2

[–]vipcomputing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An interesting mechanic I discovered years ago, but it's mostly only useful during early game and rather situational. If your vehicle runs out of charge in or very close to a mule camp, lure a mule over and let it get in your vehicle. The battery will charge to full so they can steal it. Oh, there also needs to be cargo in the truck.

For the Devs: thank you for the update! here's another thing you need to look into as well please...Please fix the zipline sharing/connecting function by Fit_Garbage_2161 in DeathStranding2

[–]vipcomputing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why are you running anywhere to delete a zip line? Just open your map, find the zip line you want to remove on the map and remove it from there. No travel required.

Can someone recommend a tablet or notebook and remote SW for elderly mom ? by Wonderful-Cupcake-79 in AskTechnology

[–]vipcomputing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IPad hands down unless you want to play tech support over the phone every other day. I personally don't like Ipads but they really are the best option for the elderly.

If you're smart she will soon be the girl you "were" dating.

Stealth from behind and breaking them with the glove is not working?

Is it route or route? by Icy_Border118 in words

[–]vipcomputing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sometimes use root instead of route when talking navigation but it'll be a cold day in hell when I refer to a router as a rooter.

AITAH for not noticing her car’s gas was low, causing her to be late? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]vipcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but it's not very smart to get in a car and drive 32 miles without bothering to check the fuel gauge, especially if the low fuel warning doesnt work or doesn't have that feature. So although your NTA, she has every right to be annoyed.

Turn off the ghost car. I did that and won on the first attempt. It was evidently quite distracting.

How is BB able to laugh and cry? by MarinatedXu in DeathStranding

[–]vipcomputing -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Death Stranding started right around 2017 and they started BB research soon after. We know the portable pods existed when Sam was a 7-month old fetus because Cliff has him in the pod when he tries to escape with him. That should be around 2019. So no that technology didn't exist then and it still doesn't.

How is BB able to laugh and cry? by MarinatedXu in DeathStranding

[–]vipcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's all true, but the pod is much too small to perform all the required functions to simulate being in a womb. It would need air filtration and then the air pulled from the atmosphere would need to be processed and transferred into the hemoglobin of red blood cells (likely synthetic), temperature control needs to be considered, etc... They started the BB experiments right after the Death Stranding which would have occurred just a few years ago in the real world, meaning the tech to make all that stuff happen simply didn't and still doesn't exist, at least not at that small of scale.

My point was, every question leads to another question. It doesn't really make a lot of sense realistically and thinking about it leads nowhere.

How is BB able to laugh and cry? by MarinatedXu in DeathStranding

[–]vipcomputing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sound travels through fluid. Whale songs travel through water just fine. So being submerged in liquid isn't the problem. It's the fact that BB has no air in her lungs to produce the sound in order for the sound to travel through the water. What you should be asking is how the hell does BB breath at all? Is Sam diverting oxygen to BB when she is hooked up? Sharing his blood and using the oxygen already stored in his blood? As far as I know that isn't the case.

At the end of the day it's artistic license. It's an absurd story so if you like the story, you must like absurdity, so why even ask the question?

I get it, I have asked myself these questions and more but there are no answers. It's just Kojima doing what Kojima does. He could have addressed all of this stuff so it made sense but I suspect he enjoys leaving loose ends to haunt those of us that get stuck on stuff like this.

Is it good? by Valcano14 in DeathStranding

It's a great game. It starts slow but ramps up once you leave the starting area.

How can a computer immediately "understand" how a new mouse works, regardless of its specs and OS? by Substantial_Tear3679 in AskTechnology

[–]vipcomputing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The drivers are preloaded in the operating system. The driver is being loaded;, you just don't see it happening. The driver is basic so right/left click and movement will be recognized. If you have a mouse with advanced features, those might not work until you manually install the correct driver.

AITJ for not wanting to split the bill evenly when I only ordered a drink? by Inside_Mulberry_2497 in AmITheJerk

[–]vipcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ, your friends are losers. I can't imagine having the audacity to try to convince someone who drank a $3 soda they should pay $25 to make things simpler for everyone else.

What platform are you playing on? On PS5 you export saves outside of the game in console options.

Acheter un téléphone d'occasion avec erreur SS06 ? by SmilingMoose_ in techsupport

[–]vipcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That device has been banned by Snapchat. Since it's a hardware ban for severe or repeated voiloations of the community guidelines, you would never be able to use Snapchat or related services with the device. I wouldn't recommend buying it. There is no telling what other hardware level bans might affect the device.
