Dune Awakening. I normally don't like these kinds of games but I'm a big Dune head and although it needs to break lore for thr sake of fun, the aesthetics are all there. I'm about to build a body juicer to uo my supply of water.
Like all games in this genre though, it runs like garbage and its kinds frustrating to go from butter smooth gameplay to 20 FPS stuttering in the middle of a gun fight or when trying to outrun a worm.
Even Buddhists have an idea that a sufficiently enlightened person can kill someone without malice and for their own good.
"The Bodhisattva thought: ‘If I kill this man, I shall be reborn in hell for a hundred thousand kalpas. But if he kills these five hundred merchants, he will fall into the great hells and suffer terribly for countless eons. I would rather undergo the suffering myself than let him incur such karma.’"
Is this a organization wide thing or a local thing? There seems to be huge variance in who actually organizes these, like some are from local Pro-Palestinian groups and others are from farmers or something.
Help me Mr. Morgenthau
Sad. But also fair. Any situation, whether in or outside of their control, that affects a US citizen traveling there will be a PR spin to justify further action against them. Like the kid in a coma who US doctors said had no signs of mistreatment but who the FBI(?) encouraged the parents not to seek an autopsy for. Have a seizure and hit your head while there? The evil commies must have clubbed you.
Oh for sure, I live nowhere near those cities and I have people street racing outside my house every couple nights with souped up cars that have lights under 'em like it's Need for Speed. So far they haven't hit anybody, but it's only a matter of time. There's no way I'm the only one who knows or cares, but nobody ever stops them.
I still hear anecdotal reports from both places about cops refusing to do their jobs, potentially as retaliation. Taking hours to show up to an urgent scene, not following up on reports, etc. A few weeks ago, a teenager carjacked someone and zoomed right past the cops in Minneapolis, who didn't move a muscle. Their reasoning was that a car chase was more dangerous than just showing up to the kids house, which might be fair (except that they often stop to rob 5 or 6 people at gunpoint before they're done), but the perception is that they generally don't do anything in 99% of other youth car jacking cases that go on in the area.
I hope this is what it means, but since companies like Microsoft and even the people working on the Linux kernel have to follow US laws, I'm betting support for them will be 0 as far as drivers and such. When Russia-Ukraine started, some Russian contributors were banned from contributing to the Linux kernel with Linus Torvalds being a little smug about it all and saying it was out of his hands since the Linux Foundation is based in California. And if China is creating its own motherboards and other parts also, why would they work on support for combining their tech with US hardware?
It's not just me??? Why does Arrowhead taste so uniquely fucking weird?
I just started up a Morrowind game too!
I've played it a ton before, so I used the automated modlists for OpenMW this time and chose the Expanded Vanilla. I never really modded the game because I thought it was dumb to manually drag and drop 100s of mods in a certain order back in the day and modders didnt approve of adding their stuff to premade mod packs. So I just used to use maybe one broad texture upscaler and natural leveling mod.
I've turned off some of the gameplay changes, like an air dash that hurts you if youre out of stamina. I guess meant to discourage spamming jump. Its just silly though. Other mods are pretty cool though and I'm looking forward to the expanded content.
I'll make it to Tamriel Rebuilt eventually.
I get negative or at least uncomfortable reactions from people if I mention it in public. Like if we're talking about TV shows and they ask what streaming service something is on, I just say "oh, I don't know, I pirated it" and they just kind of go "oh..." and clearly think I just told them something highly illegal.
Is it only one? And is that one plugged into the CPU Pump slot? Fans in that slot usually run at 100% constantly unless set to PWM mode in the BIOS and after that, can still do it momentarily before your BIOS or any fan control software you're using tells it to calm down.
Might not be that, but I've seen it several times.
