I sold cutco knives for a month.

If you're looking for a job, stay the fuck away from anything dealing with "CutCo" or "Vector Marketing."

Edit: Its not really a pyramid scheme... They just do everything they can to weasel out of giving you your paycheck on payday and because it's sales commission, I don't think they have to follow minimum wage laws since you're not paid hourly.

Unless they've seriously changed how it fundamentally works (this was when I was 18). They never encouraged or paid extra for getting others to sell for you, like a typical MLM thing.

Even outside of their space, when they "argue" it had generally been posting giant, random images that had little to no context followed by walls of emojis. Which is why my blocklist is mostly Hexbear users.

Did the question of androids dreaming of electric sheep actually get answered in the novel? 🤔

Dwarf Fortress.

Not just best indie game, but best game period.

That's not untrue though... Putting rocks on your sound system could make the rocks vibrate against it and sound like utter shit.

I got a Quest 3 recently after having to give up my Quest 2 a year ago and I'm noticing that VD is using a lot of CPU power even when it's not actually doing anything. Is it encoding stuff even when there's nothing to send it to or what?

I always have to close it when doing flat space stuff because it causes some slow down in games that already don't run great (like arma 3).

I was generous and built them a barn so they could sleep indoors but I noticed most of them never go through doors (probably cuz they're too big or I need stairs at the foundation) and just sleep outside on the ground. They're not gonna get pissed after a while are they?

Lemme see your transcripts, Doc. I ain't trusting my life to anything less than an A+, honor roll student.

I was talking about bg3 and how a certain part could be changed to be much darker, and it occurred to me that it possibly could affect the rating of the game if they did (being vague purposely to avoid spoilers). But then I wondered "do things like that even have to be reviewed by the rating boards?" Because Larian has made a lot of changes like that to the game and I imagine it would be pretty ludicrous to have each and every one be reviewed to see if it fits within the current ESRB and PEGI ratings of the game.

They're trying to make laws to hurt trans people, and it's a hot issue among the populace... That is the very definition of political.

It doesn't exactly have the cyber part of cyberpunk. I wouldn't say that alien tech, especially that of an invading species humanity doesn't even know about, would count.

So I saw this new option that would put suggestions into my already made playlists. I tried it; didn't like it because it kept mixing my normal music with my sleep music. I turned off the setting, but it still keeps blending suggestions into my playlists.

How the hell do I stop it? 😩

So I was talking to the Githyanki queen, but something didn't sit right with me. She asked me to do something I'm pretty sure is bad, and she is seemingly communicating through a hologram or something. So I said "you're a god. You do it." And then pressed further, thinking it was a deception.

Nope. I got literally wished out of existence by an angry god. Lmao

I think it's a travesty you can switch characters in dialogue but it doesn't actually do anything except prevent you from selecting the dialogue options until you switch back. It's extremely frustrating when the conversation was started by just walking into an area because sometimes it starts it with a character I wasn't even controlling.

[-] PillowTalk420@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

There is no debate. If you think save scumming is wrong: you're wrong; just don't do it yourself at that point since someone else doing it doesn't affect you at all. Saving and reloading is the one, universal thing about video games that makes them so great. You can keep trying different things until you succeed, without all the tedium of starting completely from scratch every time.

Only I and Lae'zel dont have darkvision, but I can cast Light. However, when I cast on myself nothing happens. When I cast on Lae'zel, she lights up the area. What gives?

With how old school this game does some shit, and how I've been dicking about I am slightly worried I will hit a hidden time limit, like in Fallout 1 before I even attempt to dive into the main quest. I'm not just gonna turn squidy all of sudden and end my game if I take too long, am I?

So before I end my turn, I always start jamming on my lute, standing over the body of the bugbear I just slaughtered.

I have just a single physical copy of a game, and I've just been leaving the disc in the console; but after seeing a few videos about older consoles and noticing the console slows down while the disc is being read I'm curious if there is danger to the disc, or the console or even if I could get a bit of a performance gain by removing it when not playing that specific game.

Guys like Aaron will always be forced out by guys like Steve because guys like Aaron don't want to be assholes, which is a necessity guys like Steve have no issue with.

You don't clean your belts? 🤢

You don't need to throw it in the washing machine to clean it. That's not the only way to wash clothing, guys. At least hit that shit with a spray on sanitizer like Lysol or something once in a while.

I haven't seen a good AMA on that sub for over 5 years already. This, to me, is like hearing that someone shot my already dead dog. Upsetting, but I had already moved on.

How am I supposed to earn them if I don't even know what they expect me to do for them? Why do these exist? I haven't even encountered a game (not even a Fromsoft game, and those guys are notorious for being vague and not forthcoming with info even for guide books) where the hidden achievements were not already listed by a 3rd party somewhere outside of the game day 1, so why not just show them in the damn game?
