    UFO Talk

    If I ever see one, I'd try to show some hospitality just to see what sort of response I'd get, if any. I don't see any reason to fear them if they don't show hostile intent. There's a possibility a vastly superior intelligence might share something deeply profound and meaningful with you. We...

    Would you rather live in a Democracy where you're lied in all the time, or a Dictatorship where you're told the truth about things that affect you.

    Short term, one could certainly argue in favor of a benevolent dictator over a badly led Democracy. But a benevolent dictator will eventually die, and then the one who replaces them might be a complete tyrant. A Democracy at least has some safeguards in place (not perfect, but better than...

    With the meteoric rise in fast food prices post-COVID, has it affected your eating habits?

    A whole chicken? No. A big tray of chicken thighs I got marked down for 79 cents a pound? Yes. Some air fryers do have rotisserie attachments in them, but they cost more than $100. I could certainly see the value for someone who has a large family to feed, they could put a ton of...

    With the meteoric rise in fast food prices post-COVID, has it affected your eating habits?

    It hasn't changed my eating habits in any way. People paying for expensive junk food might want to consider learning how to cook. I got a $100 air fryer that I've made all sorts of delicious food with, so even people in very small apartments or a dorm could cook with an air fryer. I still...

    I activated 99% of the lights in the underworld, and can add these markers when the proper marker is added.

    Misc Tears of the Kingdom Interactive Map

    The location for some of the shrines is extremely misleading, because they could be underground only accessed from a cave. There's at least 10-12 shrines I have not been able to find due to them being extremely well hidden, even if I know where the general location is. Cave or well markers...

    [SPOILERS AHEAD] Zelda TotK Help thread

    There's a bunch of shrines inside of caves that I don't know the location to. I got a shrine map that shows all shrines, but it's zoomed out without any context to go along with it. Has anyone shared a more detailed full map that's zoomed in closer so I can see more land marks?

    [SPOILERS AHEAD] Zelda TotK Help thread

    I've done 40 something, and had no problems with any of them, but this one seems ridiculous. You got 4 balls, and 10 slots, I mean someone hypothetically could try every possible combination but that would take a very long time. Maybe someone got lucky on this and got it in a couple of...

    [SPOILERS AHEAD] Zelda TotK Help thread

    I need help with this shrine, it's the only one I've done that I'm at a complete loss on. I've given up on it at this point after trying all of the most obvious combinations.

    Isn't it hypocritical to force people to take jobs while unemployed?

    People, especially those of low skill and education are going to have to do whatever jobs they can find that pay the bills. And this also goes for people with degrees in fields that there's little demand for, or are extremely competitive fields. Listen kiddies, part of being an adult is...

    Isn't it hypocritical to force people to take jobs while unemployed?

    Until we got fully autonomous androids who can do all the shit jobs that nobody wants to do, you can't have a functioning society without people in these positions. And if people are paid to sit on their ass, then nobody will do these jobs. Some type of system where autonomous androids do all...

    Tears of the Kingdom crash fix (Ryujinx)

    It's a dirty build for Ryujinx that I found: https://pixeldrain.com/u/z4shqkZF Use Vulkan with this build. OGL still crashes, but Vulkan doesn't. Set the resolution to native with Vulkan, you take a big frame rate hit for higher resolutions unlike with OGL. But if you want to eliminate the...

    [SPOILERS AHEAD] Zelda TotK Help thread

    There's a 30fps mod that you need to use in order to make the game playable at all, otherwise it runs 20ish without the mod. If you are using that mod and are still getting less than 30fps, then unfortunately the CPU in your PC is not strong enough to play it. For Ryujinx, you need at least a...

    How do you kill this Flux Construct III boss? I get him to 3/4 HP and he just floats high in the air and slings blocks at me with no obvious way to damage him. I've tried everything I can think of and nothing works.

    Gaming Emulation Misc Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - Emulator/Etc Discussion

    I got several problems running this game on emulation, different problems on different emulators, and unfortunately the problems are severe enough for me personally that it's unplayable on Yuzu or Ryujinx. - Ryujinx: Random crashes in Vulkan or OGL, and frequently crashes in menus. Totally...

    ROM Hack Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Graphics Settings

    Does anyone have 4k and 60fps pre-configured where I can just drag and drop it? I don't trust myself to modify settings with python. so I'm not even gonna attempt it.

    Gaming Emulation Misc Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - Emulator/Etc Discussion

    Hate to be that guy, but I need clear and concise instructions on how to install graphics mods. I moved the files into the mod folder on Yuzu that I got from theboy181's github, and have checks in the boxes, but I don't notice any difference between having the 2k mod enabled and not. Help? I...

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
