It looks to me like that's a 6+2 connector and they only needed the 6-pin so the +2 is just left dangling, which afaik is fine.

Yeah, fair. It's a very clickbait-y title.

That title is wild. Good video, though. I watched this one before I saw it on Lemmy- I get notifications every six months when Ahoy uploads.

Oh, nevermind. You actually linked the search. I just misunderstood lmao. I wasn't trying to prank you.

If you remove everything after the & you'll get people on desktop, too. The search= part.

I can preview the link, which considering how the link ends...

Oh, thanks, actually. I was very confused trying to figure out what USSC was. My dumbass was thinking United States Soviet Commune lmao.

M10 GMC. Oooh, no Ersatz M10, just for fun.

No! You think I'm made of money? The blood will stain and I'm not gonna get another gallon jug every month. I just use a big glass jar. Weirdo.

Meanwhile my main email account has started getting "WALMART.WIN.CONFIRMATION PLEASE REPLY TO LOCK IN YOUR NEW IPAD" emails from a4c9z4jskp8e8_a4c9tgz4jskp@cardci.de (I mangled that email a bit but it's close to accurate) about once a week. Just.. in my main fuckin inbox.

It's frustrating because it's so obviously spam.

I'm literally carrying around like a gallon of the stuff, sourcing it isn't a problem.

"It just started saying 'yikes' like five years back."

Yeah, that's the part that confused me. Skyrim's enchantment system is just it's enchantment system. It's not as.. exclusive as Fallout 4's legendary system. I think that's what makes it distinct in my mind. I definitely see what you mean.

a deathclaw is a deathclaw.

Fallout 3, sure, but with New Vegas? Not really. There's plenty of places you can go and then decide whether you're making friends or enemies. You can interact with them, and then decide if you want them dead or not. There's definitely some places where- like you said- a deathclaw is a deathclaw, but there's also plenty of exceptions.

Oh I love that dude! "Nice hiss. Let's get this out onto a tray." He will dead ass stop mid chew like, "yeah that's foul." Then go back for another bite.

The issue with the biscuits is that the can is very very rusty in some spots. The biscuits aren't the failure point the can is lol.

Ooh, thanks. I'll check it out!

The legendary system isn't transplanted from Elder Scrolls, is it?

Unless you're saying legendary weapons = enchanted weapons I have no clue what you mean. If that is what you mean, that's a weird take but I guess I see it.

Also your take on the world feeling more large scale and alive is extremely interesting because I would've said the direct opposite. Fallout 4 feels incredibly dead to me. There's enemies, sure, but they don't exist past being targets for me to destroy so that I can loot them and whatever structure they're functionally just guarding. I can't really influence most of them past killing them and putting the Minutemen there instead. Fallout 4 feels too much like I was dropped in a sandbox.

Fallout 4 is a good game. I'd go as far as to call it great if you just ignore that there's a main story. It feels like the devs wanted to make a looter shooter, but they got told they had to make a Fallout game with RPG mechanics. So they absolutely half-assed all the RPG parts.

I typed this on mobile, so there's definitely typos. Sorry.

I have a big thing of "biscuits" from a cold war fallout shelter. Government one, I remember that much. I gotta go find that thing sometime.

I thought about cracking it open and trying a biscuit, but honestly it was in pretty rough shape. I kinda doubted the biscuits would be edible, and if that was the case I would have just ruined the can further for nothing.

I'm really very much not a City builder guy so grain of salt here: I really enjoyed Banished.

I dislike the scale of other games- in stuff like Cities Skylines I tend to get overwhelmed by how much is going on and everything I need to make work together. So I guess it makes sense that I prefer a village builder over a city builder lol

Yeah, but mobile gaming is largely a very different animal. I don't feel that comparing them is helpful at all. They're very different audiences, and very different games. While I'm sure there's some overlap they're very much not interchangeable.

Any major studio releasing a AAA game with the level of microtransactions and blatant money-bait that mobile games regularly get away with would be absolutely annihilated by public outrage.

I don't entirely agree with that- I enjoyed some of the 343 games. They're not the same quality as the original trilogy, but I would describe all of them but Halo 5 as 'good'. Not great or amazing, but good.

I would love to see them license the IP out more, though, just so we could see more variety of games. I like Halo but "he kills all the aliens and doesnt afraid of anything" gets a bit old after the fifth time or so.

The only other Halo games are Halo Wars- which personally I enjoyed a lot- and the Spartan Assault twinstick shooter games that I never played.

I have pretty much the direct opposite experience so it was the first thing that came to mind- I started with Rome 2 and couldn't run it at the time lol.
