Speak for Yourself by Imogen Heap is a damn solid album.

I am also interested in this, but don’t have good examples.

Ultimately, a lot of anarchist texts are describing anarcho-communist societies, but historically when communists and anarchists disagree, the communists ignore/fight them, or the revolution gets crushed before either really get a say.

I’m definitely using my parasite powers, I’ll have to look for the counterspell there, I’m sorta low on worms at the moment though.

Only works if you’re in melee range already and they cast which I haven’t seen a lot of. Advantage against concentration could be good but I have plenty of ways to break that. Counterspell stops the spell from occuring at all from across the room.

Haha, well the Berserker is rolling with the Returning Pike so I think I got that part. 4 Gnome Barbs sounds hilarious, maybe I’m not in such bad shape if I’m all weapon damage and heals.

Yeah, totally, I just meant she stayed a relatively pure cleric. Trickery domain sucks and I wanted the fire/radiant AoE.

Interesting idea for Lae’zel.

For the rest I guess that depends on whether this is a “strong group” without someone to deflect spells. And for the planning I’m sorta worried that I’m going to diverge a lot since the first party isn’t evil, but at the same time it’s not like the main quest changes a lot (AFAIK)

That is literally the best outcome. The worse it gets the longer the chapter on this era gets, until eventually there is no textbook at all.

I’ll be deep in the cold cold ground before I recognize Mizora!

I mean, anything is possible, but that seems farfetched to me. The router is typically a hard target for malware unless you have physical or at least LAN access. They are generally pretty locked down and don’t execute anything from remote access, they examine packet headers and send them on their way. If it was compromised I’d expect something more nefarious than ruining file transfers too.

The biggest strike against this being a network hardware/driver issue is that normal browsing works. If packets were being screwed up in transit, connections would drop, text and images would be corrupt as well (which the browser would probably choke on). It seems to have an issue only when the disk is involved, when data is being saved.

No sweat, I hope that’s enlightening. Another thing that may be interesting is checking dmesg after you trigger the input/output error (or just generally since you are seeing silent corruption). Bad errors there are usually signs of hardware issues, and may also give you something more specific to search with.

Huh, storage or RAM problems would be evident in your file tests (and elsewhere). Can you visit websites normally? Stream YouTube etc.? It would be very strange for a broken network device to corrupt files.

Also, since you didn’t mention where the downloads are coming from… No chance of corruption at the source?

The input/output error makes me think disk issue (since it should copy corrupt files just fine, it’s just data) but that should also be triggered by copying from a separate device. A more thorough disk check may be in order, like a badblock run or something.

Haha, anarchists opposing buildings because they are structures. People really have no idea.

Like the other propagandized terms it’s usually so much easier to find support when talking about concrete solutions to specific problems that align with your ideology than to admit being part of a larger project.

Definitely agree. Had a couple of them and loved some of the ideas (touchpad sticks, gyro to mouse aim, all of the Steam Input flexibility) but they never really eclipsed my rechargeable Dualshocks in terms of feeling right. Taking some of the Deck’s refinements and giving it another spin is welcome.

Nah man, BG3’s release was a phenomenon. I had people who are barely gamers casually start talking about D&D party dynamics and how nice it was to have a game focused at adults. I don’t think Larian was even prepared for it to be such a slam dunk.

Great series, amazing game 7. I thought the Jays were screwed just because the Dodgers are so ridiculously stacked, but they really showed they belonged there.

I put this on expecting a trainwreck and a cash grab too, but it still had me laughing my ass off. It really felt like they understood why the originals were so funny.

Yeah, my parents are still basically the same liberal Democrats they were when I was a kid. Meanwhile I’ve gone farther left and the rest of the family mutated into a virulent strain of fascist.

I had no idea that this was coming out, and it sort of makes me want a PS5… And then I check the price and I think I can wait a couple of years until it’s on PC.

I wonder how many in game days a speedrun would be while still destroying the Caretaker’s Array? I want to dunk on Janeway’s time to the alpha quadrant… Unless I have to run my engines on nucleogenic aliens like the Equinox.
