  Was playing this but my steamdeck is bugging out when going outside in the plain of oblivion after talking to the guy in the round cage. switched to skyrim. the more I play these the more morrowind was like peak elder scrolls for me. I wish they had been smarter with the simplification to not lose the rp aspects as much. I want the temple and mages guild teleports as well as the city conveyances but I could see being able to access them from anywhere once unlocked.

  I would think but I don't have much experience with that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My password is not accepted because it is too long⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  oh. this has been a big pet peeve of mine for awhile. After starting to use password managers I figured I would standardize on the largest required characters only to find a source whos maximum characters were lower than anothers minimum characters.

  In a small modern car its not super bad but will never be as easy as automatic. Getting used to using your left foot is annoying though. I had to use an old boat without power steering and quite when I was young and got my license on a friends automatic later in life. Im someone who hates driving in general though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't these code-writing AIs just output straight up machine code?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean we know the code does not always work and can often be not the cleanest when it does. I mean if code from ai was perfect in a six sigma way, 99.999% of the time, then I could see the black box thing and just sussing out in the lowers. Even then, any time it does not work you would need to have it give it out in human readable so we could find the bug but if it was that good it should happen like once a year or something.

  My last position I got called in and the sentence I was given was almost the same. We are letting you go and want you to know this is not due to any performance reason its just a business decision.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Iceland approved the 4-day workweek in 2019: nearly 6 years later, all the predictions made have come true.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is where unions really dropped the ball. I feel in the eighties and even back in the seventies they were pushing for overtime over increased staffing and thus membership plus not going for lower work week. Its crazy that the work week increased over the last 50 years (well in the us).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't these code-writing AIs just output straight up machine code?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I would not not want to have any non human reviewed code going out from an AI system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I did the one for skills and maybe another one on my steamdeck. It was just dropping a file into a folder. Finding the folder though. ugh. that was the annoying part.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Neville Page Says ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Season 1 Klingons Were “A Salty Broth”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  ee that is the thing with discovery. they went into the past and added new technology which then made the ackward part of everyone being classified and would never speak about it again. That would not really have been necessary if it had been placed after the other series. The only problematic point might have been holograms which seemed to be the only tech they did not have compared to the latest shows really.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Neville Page Says ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Season 1 Klingons Were “A Salty Broth”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Much of discovery season one would have sat better with me if it had just taken place after voyager.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon robot tests show they're not ready to replace humans⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  In case people just read the headline the end result is it can't 100% replace humans but the stats they give indicate they are pretty close and they learned some lessons that they are going to be using for improvements. They mention product damage but not cost. What surprised me was they were pretty close in rate to people but it mentioned people are much faster with smaller items and items at human level (not way low for bending or high that needs a ladder) ; while the robots did not vary as much with size or location. I could totally see them revamping human labor around this. Setting up for small items to be handled by humans when they are on shift and maybe having a role where a human responds to robots that can't identify an item. They even mention maybe having robots do the high areas so humand don't have to get on ladders (which sorta increases safety to). So I could see a robot management role which we have in a lot of automated setups. Humans to inspect for damage or quality, repair, or just intervene when needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo of America might turn your Switch into an expensive paperweight if you mod your console or install any "unauthorized" games, new policy warns⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  one reason I got a deck is long term it can work as a mini linux machine even when I upgrade to something better eventually.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are AAA Games too bloated?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love long games as long as its easy to pick up and put down. Like with elden ring it took a bit for me to realize I can exit almost at any point outside of a boss fight and anything defeated would stay defeated and such. Only real downside is if you have injured something then it will be full health when you come back. So it was very easy to play for 15 mins and stop and an hour later play for 15 and such. cyberpunk and harry potter did that well enough for me as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve's invite-only Deadlock has an even more exclusive top-secret hush-hush version⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  you know I generally do not like pvp but I would not mind something like shadowbane resurfacing. With the city building and minimal rewarding of pvp it was not bad despite the fact that once you left the gates of one of the three safe npc cities you had snipers galore. Yeah most player cities were dicks but there was a few guilds that actually tried to make something for people to visit (of course then they got player griefers coming in to)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitcoin mining is no longer profitable⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  this is what im always trying to get people to understand. bitcoin is programmed to take more resources to artificially increase in value. its why its so horrible for the environment and why it could never really be used as a currency. Now other coins fix this issue but bitcoin tends to be popular because its fixed. Some even do useful work like gridcoin.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the evolutionary benefit of loving a pet so much you melt into a puddle when they are around?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  sure. most of that goes back to the baby thing. most animals have some of the features babys have and the animal babys tend to be this way and evoke more feeling as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the evolutionary benefit of loving a pet so much you melt into a puddle when they are around?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  we have been breeding them for traits we like.

  High five every morning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are popes always really old?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Im not sure if its exactly a requirement but priests have to have a degree and usually an advanced degree. Granted many get it in divinity but they also have to do seminary which can't start until age 25 and it is at least 5 years. So priests basically start out at age 30 and technically a pope could make one a cardinal right away in practice the average age of a cardinal is like 70. Popes can be drawn from anyone but are usually biships. Bishop are required to have a doctorate in divinity and be over age 35. They are also expected to be known for all sorts of good qualities. So figure to be known enough you can add 10 years being a biship. So for all practical purposes its very doubtful someone would be name pope before age 50 and they have usually been 60's or 70's.

  I really don't think everyone is not an addict because of lack of opportunity. If anything I would say many addicts arise from an attempt to escape a reality that does not meet their needs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Almost 19% of Japanese people in their 20s have spent so much money on gacha they struggled with covering living expenses, survey reveals - AUTOMATON WEST⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is why we really need a system where people can spend their whole paycheck and still be fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Diablo vs. Darkest Dungeon: RPG devs on balancing punishment and power⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  True but I often felt the push pull of the two groups. Especially in mmo's. PVPers tended to be the challenge minded while PVEers tended more toward the role players. I often would chat about how I was just there to play with dolls.
