  • Cats bury their shit

    In your flower bed, which is how they get torn up. Then when you go to fix them: smelly shit

    tend to avoid dogs / fights with bigger animals

    That's cute, cats in my area love fighting everything

  • Attacking cats that are outside: Even worse.

    Tossing water at a car is hardly "attacking" it, homie

  • I'm learning Game Maker rn, would be willing to try to figure out how to implement some of the features as a co-learning thing, if you're interested in some random dipshit

    The real question is how organized your design doc(s) is/are, honestly, you could probably make whatever you're thinking about in RPG maker if you weren't afraid of it being generic AF so long as the organization is solid

  • thought

    Pretty key word there. Also: US military is significantly bigger than the next few in line combined, another good reason a revolution isn't simple. Oh, and we're fuckin huge with large spaces of nothing, which is another problem

    And if they kill all the workers and soldiers who will be left to fight their wars and make their goods?

    The large chunk of people who actively support the facism & their offspring

  • Almost any gas station has those syrup pumps

    Once upon a time for sure, shockingly getting more and more rare ime

  • Problem:

    The people who have argued hardest for the ability to buy things like that and actually do it and have hoarded the weapons already are the racists

    So if we try an unorganized attack of any kind, we give the insane motherfuckers who want Red Dawn to happen a reason to start unloading. I've personally seen some of what these crazies have stockpiled, that is not a can you want to open

    We're basically fucked on using weapons until those guys are hurting enough to be on our side, which might be too late to matter, anyway

  • And you should be free to do that by not having to interact with someone

    your options are shite and I refuse them all is a valid vote, why make it harder for someone to choose that than necessary?

  • Being the exact age you're talking about and vividly remembering that time: we don't have enough pixels to tell if he's 12 or 17, honestly

  • I mean, he brought the marker back to the planet, which should be what the marker wanted, so why were they still attacking him?

    The marker wanted to stay off of Aegis VII, actually. Their entire goal (as we learn in 3) is to spread the Necro infection and eventually make a Brother Moon. It's likely the marker kept attacking Isaac in an attempt to stop him from putting it back on the planet that was about to fall apart. Isaac's mental infection isn't hardcore until DS2, either, so he's not being manipulated very hard yet

    Dead Space gets fucking complicated if you read the extended lore in all the games holy shit I sound insane

    Wait, is mercer the guy developing the invincible necromorphs, or is he the one helping you bring the marker?

    Mercer is the guy making the invincible Necro. In the remake he kills himself willingly, in the original he's "betrayed" by the marker. The guy helping you is June, poor bastard

  • I'm unable to get any info on what my grandpa did after leaving active duty and going to work for LM on government contracts. I have paperwork mentioning him, and it's alllllllll still sharpied out almost 70 years later. Dude was a logistics engineer, he basically organized warehouses, yet apparently was so important to the nuclear sub program (Mare Island in the 50s & 60s tells me that much) apparently that I'm not allowed any further info

    It's entirely possible he didn't know what he was working on, I only have guesses because of other shit we know from decades after his death

  • Dr Mercer was advantageous to the Marker to have alive and doing his work, so he isn't killed until his usefulness has run its course

    Canonically: the markers try to influence people to do what will assist in Unification. Isaac vehemently doesn't believe in Unitology so the marker throws enemies at him to try to stop him / manipulate him into doing what it wants (in DS2 & 3). Other people in the series are believers, so they don't need to be killed off if they're more useful alive for the time being

    Survivors lasting by staying behind locked doors isn't too unbelievable, either, given the fall of the Ishimura took a while (1 month from marker discovery to it getting on board the ship), and you arrive not that long after it falls (less than a week). It's been at most a week since she went dark, I think, which is a believable timeframe to survive given the comms going black is at least a day before the big fall of the ship

    Oh hey my memory was pretty close: Check the year 2508 section

    Other games absolutely pull that shit too much, but DS did a pretty good job with background story details to explain why some people aren't dead

  • Ah, so it's going to flop hard, at least by Beth standards

    They scared a lot of us away with Shitfield, if I can't fix it with mods then I'm not gonna bother even pirating that shite

  • gasp

  • Idk what I've traded to never have issues with that file, but I worry every day that the horror is ahead of me and not behind

  • Because nobody's making something like the Steam Controller 1, but better, which is what a SC2 would be, one assumes

    If someone else were to make one I'm sure people would cream their jeans if they weren't bespoke and expensive

  • biting the hands that fed

    That's not how that saying works, dawg

  • As much as I love Aero, one probably should use secure and supported OS for gaming

    Of course, Windows 10 & 11 are harder to make look actually like Aero than basically any Linux DE, because they hate you

  • Microsoft hides how their server shit works behind their certifications

    Source: I've been taught how to use Windows server edition by people who got their certs. I assume it's somewhat a joke, but cannot be certain

  • It's the unofficial updater for nVidia graphics on Linux. If you're running Mint you should use the Driver Manager software instead, imo

    I'd advise going with an AMD card, personally just moved away from nVidia due to a mix of too many issues with Linux that are nVidias fault + being way more expensive than similarly powered AMD GPUs

  • I know how to compile my own software, but I'm not gonna fucking do it. I'll leave a comment where I can calling the devs lazy assholes (because they are) and move on with life, as will many others

    Because that's unnecessary elitism, and it's gross. Also, 1 step of extra work is bullshit and wastes human life for no fuckin reason
