Questgiver: "Please go in stealthy, the main villain in this side quest will make things very difficult for my husband if you don't"

My V, after surveying the building and concluding stealth would be slightly annoying:: "Oh fuck it, let's roll".

I know a LOT of the community absolutely love both Idris and Keanu, but I think one reason why I feel so disconnected to both their characters is that I never cared about either actor all that much.

In short I am one of the few players who do not have an emotional commitment towards either character just by hearing their voices.

@hybridhavoc oh yes. It's just that for me he starts at Relationdhip -50 instead of +50 so to speak.

Just blocked and you should, too! Don't let do an "embrace, extend, extinguish" on and the - search for "threads.net", select an account and do this.

WhyNotZoidberg,
@WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

@gcspitfire Also do not worry if you do not find anything when you search, this means your Instance has defederated from threads.

  1. Meta/Facebook has a horrific track record on human rights:

  1. Meta/Facebook is trying to join the Fediverse. We need to defederate them.

  2. If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net" (here's how on Mastodon https://fedi.tips/how-to-defederate-fediblock-a-server-on-mastodon/)

  3. If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net". Your admin is listed on your server website's About page.

@AudraTran @feditips ...what?

Talk about completely missing the plot.

"I don't want to communicate with a company that is actively fascist!"

"But the communication in itself is not pro-fascist!"

...Facepalm.

@WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

@AudraTran I don't need to answer an irrelevant question, that's the point.

Your question is literally irrelevant to the original post.

(Oh and Meta is actively pushing fascism in several countries, so yeah. As the original posts tell you).

@WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

@AudraTran Nobody has an obligation to federate with anyone. If you want to federate with meta, be on an instance that has chosen to do so.

I don't want anything to do with Meta; I quit facebook and Instagram years ago, why on earth should I read posts from Threads? I have actively avoided them for three years now.

That said, people who know about the human rights violations and still support them obviously also support human rights violations.

WhyNotZoidberg,
@WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

@AudraTran Oh and btw, people who think it is somehow "wrong" to fediblock Meta because they share protocol are in a cult.

WhyNotZoidberg,
@WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

@AudraTran The answer to your question is: Your question only makes sense if you are some sort of Freeze Peas absolutist who think it is everybody's right to be heard by everybody and that nobody should have the right to say "no, I do not want anything to do with you because I hate what you stand for".

The "act of federating" here is the same as standing and listening to the campaigning Nazi on the square. I don't want to listen to him, so I do not let him communicate with me.

Okay so datamining of models suggest that the details of cims are way overworked with 40 000 polygons or more for details you cannot see in the game (you can't zoom in that far).

The performance of the game is... not good for a lot of players that struggle with framerate dips down to <10 fps on 30-series NVIDIA cards.

I don't know much about gamedev or 3D modelling but this seems like an odd choice.

Anybody find it funny when you can "delete" dangerous items by selling them in games?

You have 4 things in your backpack that are not quest items, but are dangerous according to the game's lore, and they are ALSO worth several hundred gold... so if you want you can just sell them, and somehow the bad guys will never figure out you sold a box of 5 demons, six alien eggs and one glass jar of zombie-virus or whatever to the local hafling merchant? They just... disappear?

Me watching my fellow generation-Xers become increasingly grumpy and intolerant of younger people.

@WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

@Loukas My personal experience is that we are getting more and more grumpy about the PARENTS of younger people.

Aka we complain about our own kids, the Millenials, but have no problems with the Gen Zs...

If only someone had raised our kids better... (disclaimer: I don't actually have any kids myself).

I must say compairing my playthru so far with a number of let's plays on the same difficulty (balanced) and turning OFF Karmaic Dice seems to have made my playthrough easier but the fights DO take longer since there a lot more misses.

Very little text and the name of the person commissioning the stone is gone.

"...Efter sin son Afasi. Livsten högg dessa runor efter en god ung man"

"...After his (or her, probably his; not their) son Afasi. Livsten chiseled these runes after a good young man"

(Livsten is the name of the stonemaker not the parent of Afasi)

So 5 is confirmed (by the devs) to be a mobile game for the PC (and on mobile). Aka free to play but everything you want is in an in-game store. (and yes it will be playable with the same account on PC and mobile).

Thank god for the two other lifesims coming out.

@Jamesthe1

"Paralives" is an indie Lifesim. Started with a single dev, I think there are a few more involved now

"Life By You" is Paradox' upcoming lifesim with the lead designer from Sims 2 heavily involved.
