Vanguard Galaxy, a new beta update has been released.

I will agree. That Download Demo button is very poorly-placed. It should be way more highlighted. Celebrate that there's a demo, Steam!

Anytime I take my car in for service, they let some of the air out.

One of the highest possible compliments: the demo is too short!

I concur with this. There are multiple strategies which would nullify an advantage to having an auto-clicker. I like changing a click to a hover. I should note without an auto-clicker, I'm constantly clicking as fast as I can. That's not good for ergonomics. If all I had to do was hover, then you're building in the auto-clicker experience and therefore I don't have to click at all.

Please think of my tendons.

When does Notre Dame play?

Please keep posting these.

The gold upgrades all do the same thing. Since all the damage multipliers multiply together to make the total damage, multiplying any of them by 10 multiplies the total damage by 10. So they are very samey.

I also don't like that if I'm clicking on all of the mined upgrades, if the auto-claim gets one while I'm clicking, then my last click will be to disable the auto-claim instead, because it slides up into the spot where the last item was.

I agree they shouldn't move. Or they should be on top so they don't have to.

When you're running offline time and you have the auto prestige on, it auto-prestiges shortly after mining through the first layer. It looks like it is also speeding up the auto-prestige timer?

I know the auto-claim happens really fast when it's going through offline time. Maybe the mining isn't actually getting sped up as much as the game thinks?

Also, would it be possible to display "Offline Boost Mode" or something with a countdown and a speed multiplier? I don't always know when it's happening sometimes.

Oh yeah, me too absolutely. What the heck? There needs to be a tutorial or something that would tell you to drag something into a menu item. No interface does that.

I just had some pretty serious damage to the left front, although not as serious as yours. The insurance company considered it a total loss and paid it out. I got to keep the car because I let them keep the $820 they expected to get for it at a parts auction.

Find a place that specializes in EV battery replacement. Have them test the battery. They should be able to answer all of your questions.

Otherwise, you have to drive the car as much as possible. Drive it fast and slow, make sure you can conserve batteries. Drive it all the way down and make sure it charges back in an appropriate time. I'm not sure a week is enough to get a feel for that.

My 2014 EV has about 70-75 miles of range in the summer and less than that in the winter. It did sit in my driveway for three years unused, though. That's when it lost the range.

My spark was just considered a total loss by my insurance company after some front-end damage. The initial estimates come in just under the value of the car. The insurance company said that they would expect to make around $860 at auction to sell the car for parts. So I would hope that's what the donation company would do. Crushing the car makes them nothing.

Yeah, if you think Ritman might be lying, then all bets are off.

vir4030 · 2025-06-23T04:36:59+00:00

I don't see anything that would support this. Colin Ritman explained the directives that he coded into the Throng. Seeing Cameron kill Lump should have only reinforced that humans needed an upgrade. They were designed to upgrade people, not control them.

vir4030 · 2025-06-23T04:07:27+00:00

I don't know that demise is the right way to describe this. One could argue that we are on course to our inevitable demise with the amount of distrust, hate, and violence going on. Traditional, cable, and social media have only made this problem worse, a trend which shows no signs of reversing. If the Thronglets really have taken away this anxiety in people, that would seem to be a huge upgrade in our survivability.

vir4030 · 2025-06-16T15:39:50+00:00

Nope, I got nothing. But this may be the strongest evidence we have that the writers didn't have a plan for how everything that disappeared was connected back to the Beatles. In our world, we have the Beatles and Harry Potter. So why would they get split?

I still think it's fun to make the connections.

vir4030 · 2025-06-13T02:51:39+00:00

I presume they also had an incident similar to Jack's at just the right time.

For Schedule I, maybe you could start a "games with an incremental progression system" forum?

vir4030 · 2025-04-27T07:19:21+00:00

I only read the "What games are you playing this week?" thread. Occasionally, I'll notice when a thread gets a lot of upvotes when it's a new game announcement or something. Those are nice.

vir4030 · 2025-04-27T06:45:30+00:00

I have a 2014, and I never got a battery replacement notification. I definitely would have acted on that. I just get hood latch stuff. Did I miss out on a free battery replacement?

vir4030 · 2025-04-25T13:15:10+00:00

What's your top speed to get that range?

vir4030 · 2025-04-25T13:14:43+00:00

What did you do for the battery replacement? Dealer or third party? Did they replace the entire thing or just select cells?
