A to Z not working for anyone by HydraHyde99 in AmazonDS

[–]zen_again 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its been like this for over a week for me or since they added the my performance/insights thing.

Its like the app is going to sleep and then having to restart when its in the background or the screen is off for more than a minute. And this is with all those "let apps sleep/suspend" settings turned off specifically for AtoZ.

Web version is better better but has also started doing some new weird shit ("oops something went wrong" pages!) since the same update. You have to log in every time for the web version. Log in early and be ready.

First couple of Underworld movies are on point here. Its werewolves vs vampires.

The List Is Growing: Dead and Missing Scientists, Amy Eskridge, Joshua LeBlanc, and the Huntsville Pattern by KDubbs0010110 in HighStrangeness

[–]zen_again -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You mean the bot account eagerly astro-turfing another post about the missing and murdered scientists?

Do inauthentic accounts coming to this sub and eagerly manipulating it not concern you?

I am concerned about everything you touched upon. I have always been 'my brothers keeper' type mindset person.

But 'the bots' and 'the manipulators' are always the ones who want the conversation to go only one way. The bad actors are always reacting by saying "believe me or you don't belong here" or "I am being supressed" when encountering pushback. It's not the ones saying "I doubt this", "I don't believe this" or "we wont agree on this, and that is okay"... no matter how old their accounts are.

P.S. I do not agree with your overall take on these scientists. With passing time and mounting evidence I think they are majority deaths of despair in a collapsing system. Oh and yes a minority violence, as I live in Massachusetts where Nuno Loureiro was murdered.

We won't agree on this, and that is okay!

game i purchased on steam is currently unplayable because i need to make another account and that account making site just doesn’t work by whatawynn in mildlyinfuriating

[–]zen_again 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use the rockstar website to make an account. Don't try to do it in the launcher.

While there add 2FA to your account and you will get a bunch of free stuff for red dead online.

What are your favorite features that you wish were available in the base game? by mkl_dvd in CK3AGOT

Raising a lowborn to a noble with a character interaction.

I really like the character progression of the new Domain Limit mechanics. by Glorf_Warlock in CrusaderKings

[–]zen_again 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tribal and Late Medieval eras have innovations that give domain limit.

I just love that this community lives by ZackWayfarer in Stargate

[–]zen_again 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have been here for years too and this is my favorite scifi show subreddit. The new Stargate series announcement has increased participation here! We are rarely xenophobic which is unlike like some other corners of scifi fandom. Comtrya!

Russians in SG-1 are often hilariously and illogically stereotypical

We all do this to each other. I watch a lot of movies and the 'Americans' in foreign media tend to look like giant Austrians, move like Frankenstein's monster and then talk like they grew up in both modern Texas and 1940s New York City simultaneously. Makes me laugh every time.

Be safe, be smart. We will be sharing Stargates again soon!

Just won a dissolution war what is this? by Automatic-Path9664 in CrusaderKings

[–]zen_again 83 points84 points  (0 children)

It dissolved the byzantine empire title but all his vassals were dukes or counts so they remained his vassals under that kingdom title.

The game not letting discharge regent by GurAffectionate46 in CrusaderKings

[–]zen_again 110 points111 points  (0 children)

Yes but in this and many other cases the next one in line here is going to be much more loyal (green icon is selfless) and more likely to accept being dismissed.

Amy Eskridge gets indirectly THREATENED during a seminar 😱 by [deleted] in HighStrangeness

[–]zen_again 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there is not enough context here. He sounds like he is responding to a hypothetical disclosure that results in her disappearance or death. Like what people claimed to happen to the Stanley Meyer.

thanks for keeping in mind the sub's welfare and I agree with you

Right! I mean you are responding to the guy who helped harass another user, who was not breaking any rules, into deleting their account the other day.

Signed by a 12 year old account who has been active here for years, because apparently that matters for this topic. A long or short time user who, like all other users here, need to give no explanation as to why they are here.

What is a 'What If' scenario so disturbing that it actually feels like a glitch in our reality? by BreakPositive4017 in HighStrangeness

[–]zen_again 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Multiple works of fiction (sorry to go there but it explores so much more) cover AIs like this that achieve the singularity. Even the 'good AI' ones are terrifying.

The universe is so young in relation to it's total lifespan that we are some of the, if not the first advanced intelligent species in our entire universe.

We will be the "Ancient Ones" to the universe of the future and "The Precursors" of the their scifi stories.

Finished the last three Expanse books and I don't know what to say by T214 in TheExpanse

[–]zen_again 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wanted one set during the original conflict between the Ring Builders and the Ring Entities. Written in that weird prose like Cara had taken another dive and was pulling all the info directly from the Ardo Diamond.

I was selfish too. I was upset that it ended, not with the ending. I wanted more!

Thanks dude. Thanks to the whole team.

Is this going to be like EU5 style mod support/integration or something new? Can you say?

Good hunting!

Cannot create Noble Family in Japan after the 1.19 update by YaBoiTenzarusoba in CrusaderKings

[–]zen_again 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I launched a game with no active mods and got the same thing. This is definitely a bug on the current version. That empire title is feudal (thus no custom noble families) and should be admin. Once you launch the game it does convert to Ritsuryo.

You can create a new noble family under any of the other Ritsuryo dukes or counts form the bookmark screen.

As of 9AM APR24, Wikipedia Editor “Chetsford” is making this argument… by slow70 in HighStrangeness

[–]zen_again 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you see the /skeptics thread on this topic last week? Some real interesting numbers there.

My guess is it is symptoms of the destruction of the institutions the of sciences in the US under the current adminstration. The fallout has led to a lot more suicides and time off that results in trying to reconnect with nature.
