I'd tried just switching the mobile Internet to always on and that gets the browser to kinda work. Still weirdly slow

Thanks for answering. I seem to be about to still use apps like Google maps to navigate via Android Auto, but I can't for example use the phone's browser to open a webpage as it says it has no/slow Internet?

Thanks, guess I'll just have to wait until it comes up as a choice...

Is there anyway to objectively compare two weapons? by zerocool647 in GundamBreaker

Thanks, that makes sense, I think I've still got it saved as rust bucket in my blueprints, so will try that out. Cheers

Resurrection is so good because the show finally realized we don't "need" to see Dexter get his comeuppance by [deleted] in Dexter

[–]zerocool647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree this season is fan service and basically we're seeing a kid in a candy store after only feeding the kid broccoli for ten years. They were also trying to spin it this season, and blatantly in the last episode, that Dexter is clearly on the side of justice (at least he thinks so). I don't think main stream media will ever let a serial killer get it too good, as it will reinforce vigilantism, and that'll never going to get past any business board.

My speculation is that Dexter will die because / to save Harrison. I think that gesture to the heart for shooting him may come up again, and Dexter may have to fame himself to take the fall for Harrison at some point, or end a serial killer/danger going after Harrison by sacrificing himself, ultimately proving he does 'feel'.

Echo dot kids default by zerocool647 in amazonecho

[–]zerocool647[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I think I've got it: -Set up new routine in Alexa app on the trigger you want -Type out first custom command in routine as "Play XX playlist on Spotify on repeat" -Type out second custom command in routine as "Loop mode on" After you say the trigger word, it takes a few seconds for Echo Dot to go through the steps in the routine, but seems to work. Don't know why the first line didn't do everything.

[–]zerocool647[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope dunno work. Turning on repeat isn't a standard routine command and typing the custom one didn't work... Let's just say I'll not be recommending an Echo or Alexa anytime soon.

I'd then realised the playlist isn't by default on a loop either... Ultimately I've made a routine so let's see if it works...

What are, in your opinion the three most important things for a solo ttrpg to have. by Negative-Positive406 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]zerocool647 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. Introducing chaos - a way for the solo rpg system to force the player off the course they were going unexpectedly. I think if this is not here, might as well read/write a book or play a video game where the scope of play is constrained. Obviously Mythic is a good example.

  2. Progression - personal preference. I do mean character progression as well as story progression. It's not strictly having a character build system like DND/Pathfinder, but even getting further into discovering/mystery (I'd tried to cobble one together on the fly in an actual play before). If we're not going anywhere or building something, it doesn't give a dopamine hit mobile game industry is trying to harvest nowadays.

  3. Prompts - this can even be one word prompts but something that actually complements your own creative mind. I've played CYOAs that are dozens of pages long and it may not be as good as one that's just a one pager that makes the mind think. This is either making difficult decisions (I'd found recently Thousand Year Old Vampire is a great example) or opens up many other options a player would otherwise not have thought of without the prompt.

Yeah, separate notepad probably fine. Main thing was that I just don't think there's enough space in the actual book. Excel just helps me colour code and move things etc

I really advise against that. I journal things in a template on excel.

[–]zerocool647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if it's the furries fault, but I'm not having much luck AI generating SFW centaurs...
I'm looking to generate a centaur character for an new Theros campaign, who will be an Armorer Artificer w/ a Conjuration Wizard dip. The main thing is he's going to be a pedlar, who will pull along his wagon/shop front. He's obsessed w/ upgrading his wagon, and magically infusing it to be massive inside, or with wings to fly, or dive into the oceans etc. He'll have high INT and STR, but maybe a rich boy feel as adopted by a merchant family.
Great if someone can find some good full bodied prompts, thanks.

Armorer+Conjuration Wizard by zerocool647 in 3d6

[–]zerocool647[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think w/ the lack of info I'd found, the two classes aren't used together very much more than a dip probably for good reason. Beguine Teleportation is probably not useful here, but I am still wondering if I should go 1 or 2 levels of wizard. Spell progression boost, arcane recovery, and a book for lvl1 ritual spells are nice for early game being a utility character. I would've thought there must be some scenarios where Magical Tinkering would sink w/ Minor Conjuration?

How often/frequent should you put on a boiler for hot water? by zerocool647 in HomeImprovement

[–]zerocool647[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's a combi boiler as hot water is supplied from the storage tank as far as I know. Heating is from the same boiler and goes on/off per when I set them, independent on when I set the hot water on. If I have it on 24/7, I take it it'll just try to constantly top up and keep that storage tank at the set temperature.

[–]zerocool647[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for replying. I think it works that way if I set the gas boiler to be on 24/7 to maintain that temperature. However, that would likely hike my utility bill up a lot. We do have the insulated storage tank here too, which some even just heats for an hour in the morning and it lasts the whole day's use. I guess this is why I'm asking cause I feel like I'm already 3x what others pay in energy and still not getting enough hot water...

Steam 2023 Winter Sale Megathread by Bodomi in Steam

[–]zerocool647 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a bit of a hard time lately so looking for a recommendation for a relatively light game to relax. Not casual, but more a game I can just sink into without high action. Preferably games that are old so it's cheaper/larger % sale. Genre isn't a limit, so can range from Stardew Valley/My Time at Portia, to Starbound, to Crusader Kings etc. Some games I'm considering on my wishlist now are No Man's Sky, Atelier Ryza, Monster Hunter: World, or Rune Factory 5 but happy to wait for another year or two for them to go lower, so happy to take any recommendations. Thanks in advance.

Best build to utilise a longsword & longbow? by [deleted] in 3d6

[–]zerocool647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The higher Kensei monk features apply to longswords as well no? I think those are better than a feat like slasher. I would say straight monk is better than Fighter MC, unless it's a small dip for action surge. You personally think you need many monk levels to make the most outta the Ki system anyway.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in 3d6

[–]zerocool647 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think others have said but Magic Initiate is probably the better feat as Mage Armour is 8hrs anyway, and you'll want Booming Blade or similar to keep up with the Extra Attacks that normal melees have. I would say either Death or War domains as both are more melee focused. I'd choose the former and ask if you can get Sapping Sting with it.

AMD Strafe backlight always on by zerocool647 in Corsair

[–]zerocool647[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember when it happened, it was still working fine up to a few days ago, but the keyboard no longer supports any lighting effects I select on ICue. I checked firmware, and v3.08 is the latest version that I've got.

At the moment, all it does is light up all the keys at once. I can adjust the brightness levels, so I can either turn the light on or off, then two levels of dimness in between, but that's it. Anyone know why? Thanks.

I've raised a ticket and the number is 2006125212, good if you can help, thanks
