Oh, right. Fast Boot. I forgot about that bundle of joy.
But that's wasn't the only instance of an NTFS volume suddenly being broken. Another favorite was when I shrunk a volume on one disk from Linux (and then remembered that Windows correspond done it better) and rebooted to have it fixed and Windows proceeded to repair one on a different disk.
NTFS feels rock solid if you use only Windows and extremely janky if you dual-boot. Linux currently can't really fix NTFS volumes and thus won't mount them if they're inconsistent.
As it happens, they're inconsistent all the time. I've had an NTFS volume become dirty after booting into Windows and then shutting down. Not a problem for Windows but Linux wouldn't touch the volume until I'd booted into Windows at least once.
I finally decided to use a storage upgrade to move most drives to Btrfs save for the Windows system volume and a shared data partition that's now on ExFAT because it's good enough for it.
And even if the warheads aren't functional anymore, nobody wants to get a dirty bomb dropped on their heads. The best nuclear weapon is one that's not launched.
Still doesn't mean Russia gets to do what it wants.
Of course this is mostly a 3D Fallout issue. Fallout and Fallout 2 had more intricate dialogues, Fallout Tactics isn't an RPG, and Brotherhood of Steel is obviously perfect and doesn't have any issues.
When I debugged my crackling sound I followed various advice that said to enable 44100 in addition to 48000 and it fixed nothing. Then I disabled 48000 and it worked because the auto-switching refused to work. (And of course the other computer runs the same games just fine on 48000 because things can't ever be simple.)
Try setting the rate to 44100 and only that, no double rate support; most games try to output at that rate and don't deal well with being upsampled to 48000.
Useful stereotypes can help a person avoid danger.
Unknown mushrooms don't have to be poisonous but being careless with them can lead to a grisly death. Drivers don't have to be unaware of me but it takes just one who is to put me in mortal danger if I'm not careful. A man following a lone woman at night where nobody else is around doesn't have to have ill intent but she's still better off being prepared for the case that he does.
Does this discriminate against mushrooms, drivers, and men? Yes, but that's the point. It's essentially an informal safety guideline and it deliberately overreaches just like real safety guidelines. The 999 times someone doesn't need that handrail don't outweigh the one time they do; not in OSHA's eyes. Because someone might die if the handrail fails that one time.
This whole thing becomes problematic when it gets over-applied. Avoiding canned mushrooms in the supermarket won't protect me from poisoning. Assuming that all drivers are blind and irresponsible will not improve my behavior on the road. Being afraid of all men in all situations will not make that woman's life better.
Like always, Paracelsus is right: The dose makes the poison. (And like with poison, some stereotypes are so toxic that any dose of then is bad for you.)
German here. I rarely had less than half an hour of a commute but that's in part because I find that time acceptable. I typically choose my mode of transportation to hit half an hour, whether that's public transit, a bike, or even walking.
Could I save ten minutes by getting a car or motorbike? Sure, but the cost far outweighs the benefits. Besides, I like to ride my bike and mostly work from home anyway.
I gotta agree here. Every game doesn't feel the same if you don't constrain yourself to the world of overhyped overmonetized AAA slop.
In my library I have a game about running an alternate-history navy sitting next to one about being a scrapper in space. The next one over is about terraforming a planet with your own labor. Then there's a pure-bred Igavania next to a quirky game about power washing.
Sure, there are multiplayer titles in there as well but virtually none that even bother with anti-cheat bullshit because coop beats competitive in my opinion.
(For the record, I do own overhyped AAA slop but it's nowhere near the majority of what I play.)
"You can't pass through here. We're waiting for the inquisition." - "We are the inquisition." sets fire to the stakes and immediately moves on (No, they weren't the inquisition.)
"What is this summoning circle supposed to be? It's all smudged! Did you tip over that candle and just put it up again without fixing the circle? Did you reuse this circle? Is that a lump of unsecured unmetal over there on the table? Have you idiots ever heard anything of elementary workplace safety?!" (Said after a demon summoning by the demon the PCs summoned. For reference, unmetal has the bad habit of going nuclear if exposed to too much magic.)
"You haven't lived until you've done a jumping puzzle in a non-Euclidean space."
"What is your opinion on trees?" - "Trees... are."
"Talk to the hand." (A demonologist trying to banish one of the most powerful entities in the setting with a low-end banishment spell and a pentagram scrawled into his palm.)
That's all I can think of right now because also tired. But yeah, that campaign was wild.
Nose surgery to remove polyps and correct a septum deviation. I'm getting out of the hospital today. It's going to take a few weeks for me to fully heal but being able to breathe through the nose again is luxurious.
"Well, excuuuuuse me, princess!"
