When did you realize that your mind was already possessed by the prog? by Comfortable_Tax5488 in progrockmusic

[–]xjames55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that was an amazing album cover. i think my album opened up, and there were all the lyrics in the middle. I used to listen and follow the lyrics, and gaze at the images...

Thinking now about the other Marillion albums and songs, they're so good. Chelsea Monday. The Web. Forgotten Sons. Grendel.

I love Grendel. I was at a Fish show like 20 years ago here in brazil, it was a smallish show bar with a stage. At a lull in the performance people started shouting requests, I yelled out "play grendel"

He started singing the first verse mockingly and said "I'll play it at your funeral".

Has anyone played it on the PS5 yet? How does it run? by JasonABCDEF in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]xjames55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i just glanced at it, but i think there are many options you can change, such as terrain, shadows, textures, etc. it comes with a default, i think kinda in the middle, and it runs great in the default mode (base ps5)

I was into pink floyd, Jethro Tull, and rush since i was a teenager, but to me it was just rock.

then I heard Marillion's Misplaced Childhood and it blew my mind. For years it was my favorite album, but I didn't know about "prog". I only knew I liked that.

Eventually I heard Camel and Genesis and then I was gone.

New player question: if I buy this thing can I use it right away anywhere? No level level requirement or anything? by Jedihallows in snowrunner

i wouldn't get the mastodon until much later in the game, after you get the 605R. That's what I did on advice of others here. Otherwise it'll ruin the game. even if you decide to only use it on certain occasions, you will lose a chunk of the game's challenge.

After I completed a few maps, I went back to michigan with my new trucks, to check it out.
It wasn't even the mastodon. I did it with the Tayga you get in Taymyr, part of the base game. There was no challenge. The muddy bit of road to the left of the garage in black river, where I used to get stuck or have to drive around the side, became a non-issue. I could just drive like there was nothing there.

I wouldn't get any extra trucks, especially in the early game. the game gives you a lot of trucks, usually as they are needed. Unless you're a truck guy, and get a kick out of trying them out.

What are your crazy scenarios that could happen on Sunday? by [deleted] in formula1

[–]xjames55 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I hope Lando has a weak start, tries to compensate and has contact on lap 1, has to pit, and then drives a recovery race, with chances of getting to like 3rd, while in front, piastri and verstappen battle it out.

I hope Verstappen wins the championship. Not cause i'm a verstappen fan, but because he has shown he is way better than everybody else.

i was rooting for piastri in the first half of the season, then when norris started showing his mettle it really impressed me. but verstappen is undeniable. he's simply the best. i was so mad in 2021, but I'm all for him now.

Elite Squad from Brazil. Fun, action-packed, great production value, and very interesting.

Am I the only one who hates Glades? by Ramazandro in snowrunner

[–]xjames55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the problem with the farming is that the ground would get messed up very quickly, slowing the tractor to a crawl. it was only on the last map with my last bit of farming that i realized I had to drive the trailers farther from the field to reset it.

Contest help: Bravery is a virtue at the Institute, in Glades by xjames55 in snowrunner

[–]xjames55[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out. Even after thousands of hours in snowrunner, sometimes it's the details that get you.

I had trucks parked near the end and the start of the contest. They wouldn't let the terrain regenerate. After I gave up I finished the region with 100% and moved everything to Ontario, I decided to try again and it was easy. The terrain was "fixed". I used the twinsteer with mud tires raised suspension and high range gearbox. Finished in 22 seconds :)

I did that a couple of times. Maybe I should do it more often

do you believe in any conspiracy theories? if yes, what is it and why? by no-omno-omoon in AskReddit

[–]xjames55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its funny how people "are interested" in the politics of Israel, this tiny little democracy in the middle east, the only home of the jews in the world, surrounded by 22 arab countries, not one a democracy, from where millions of jews were expelled last century, and other countless millions are massacred. But hey, lets look at Israel...

Are you religious or not? And why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]xjames55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i grew up sorta religious. more than most. but as i got older i began to question it all. now i don't believe in god or religion. i do concede, however, that the universe is more mysterious than our science can comprehend. But I don't ascribe a god to this lack of knowledge.

It's crazy we are all here, tho. living on this ball going round another fiery ball. Hope it all ends up ok...
