I say for anyone who is still frequently using Reddit at this point, let's post friendly replies to try and lure responses from the admins on these threads, then after they respond, change your question to something that makes their response look like something an asshole would say.

Garrison is without a doubt one of the most obtuse and absurd comic creators out there, but this one is a well known fake.

And for those that don't know, Cities Skylines 2 is coming out October 24th!

Hey Satan, how's it going?

Still using Kbin via web browser on desktop and mobile; with Kbin Enhancement Suite. Aside from some availability issues early in the migration, it's been very stable.

Satisfactory.

I love making efficient systems and the freedom to do things the way I want to, such as by using the game's alternate recipe system.

The exploration and movement systems in the game are also to notch. It's not quite Titanfall, but I struggle to think of any other game where simply moving around is so fun. That's on top of how pretty the actual environment is to explore.

The Relay dev thinks they can make a subscription model work. Last I checked they still hadn't determined pricing, but they were hopeful that it would be about a 60/40 split for them/the API. I'm skeptical it will work out that way, I have a feeling most of it will just go to reddit.

But the app will continue to work for the next few weeks before the subscription kicks in while the dev works out the details.

There's some great ones that have more of a survival aspect:

Surviving Mars
Made by Haemimont, the original creators of the Tropico series. You build colonies on mars with near-future level technology (at first). The "cities" you build are large, modular dome structures that you place on the map. Within each dome you place the individual buildings that colonists need to live. Your first domes will start off holding just a few dozen colonists or so each; however you can connect domes together so they can share resources and over time you can build larger and larger domes. The largest domes can hold hundreds of colonists. This game also has sophisticated resource management mechanics. You might have to try a few colonies before you get all the basics down. If you're not able to produce all necessary resources, you'll experience systematic/ripple effect failures as one problem leads to another. For example, if you're not producing enough water, your people will eventually die of thirst, but you'll also have trouble producing rocket fuel which is made from water, no rocket fuel means no resupplying from earth. Finally, the game has a technology "Breakthrough" system. Breakthroughs are unique technologies that you will discover on each different map. This ensures that each of your colonies will have some technological variation and this greatly enhances the game's replay-ability.

DLC recommendation(s): Green Planet (100% a must have) and Space Race

Frostpunk
A post-apocalyptic, survival city builder set in a steampunk earth that is experiencing the rapid onset of a new ice age. You use streampunk technology to help your city survive the brutally cold weather. There are also resource management aspects in this game, much like Surviving Mars, and the game's base difficulty is quite challenging to begin with; so again, you may have to make several attempts before you have a successful city. You play as the city's Authoritarian leader and have the option to run the place as ethically or unethically as you please. Will you build a utopia in the cold? When there are labor shortage will you use child labor? Will you allow children to only work safe jobs, or send them to the mines? When there are food shortages, will you resort to even more drastic measures? The game ships with several great scenarios these days, but I would recommend at least one DLC (see below). This game shows you a brutal, but beautiful streampunk world. It's lovingly and masterfully crafted to feel real. This game more than almost any other made me actually question my own morality after making some of the decisions you're forced into during play. A final note, the music is absolutely sublime. The first scenario has a... boss fight... of sorts and the music during this final stage of the scenario will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.

DLC recommendations: The Last Autumn

Timberborn! Update 4 stuff really added a lot.

Turtles

It's not the same as aged steak. OP's post is simply about patting your meat dry with a paper towel or similar prior to cooking.

Jagged Alliance 3. New game from Haemimont (Tropico/Surviving Mars). It's way different than those other two games, but I'm enjoying it so far.

4th* of July here in the US is one of the hardest days for one of my dogs. Hold on, Hilde, you'll pull through.

Beautiful. Where was this taken?

This makes me legitimately curious. If you're having this limitation on iPhone, would you consider switching to Android, as the standard MMS protocol supported by Android (and every non Apple vendor) works on wifi/data just fine? iPhone not integrating iMessage with the MMS standard is what causes the issue here.

It absolutely is a good thing when security is concerned. WiFi is easy to snoop even if you're not physically in the room, if you know what you're doing. Sure there are encryption standards that are very good to tamp down on this. However, what's even better with LiFi is you must be physically in the room to intercept any transmissions that are being sent.

This is by design one of the largest advantages to LiFi. There are other practical uses as well, but it's not like LiFi is designed to explicitly replace WiFi.

I tried this without the power tool and it didn't work very well. I have a much newer car now, but I'll keep this in mind for the next time I need to clear up old headlights.

What is Penelope's favorite thing?

Mars. Simple, it's the closest and best candidate for exploration (and hopefully more!) in my lifetime.

As a series, most certainly Pokémon. Young me played the Silver version countless times back in the day. I still do the odd ROM hack now and then.

As a single game, Skyrim.

I've never played a Jagged Alliance game, but I'm a huge fan of Haemimont for Tropico and Surviving Mars. Even though this is a totally different genre, the fact that OG Jagged Alliance fans are hyped about this game's reception is pretty much making this a must play for me.

I can't believe I'm the first person to mention Link's Awakening in this thread. Still one of my favorite Zelda games. It's bizarre quirkiness felt just like all the strange aberrations that manifest in dreams.

I vouch for Tropico! Tropico 4 is my favorite. It captures the original spirit of the series but feels modern enough that it's not difficult to play mechanically. There's fun and rewarding scenarios to play through and just sandbox mode if that's more your speed.

Thanks for answering. Sounds like in this case Android would work for you, if you were comfortable using Signal or showing up as a green dot on your family's iPhones. Not that I am recommending you change or anything.

I just wish* Apple would be more willing to integrate with standardized technologies, like MMS and USB-C. I get that they want to develop as much as possible inside the house, but some things are just inconvenient for their users when they have such a hardline stance.

Kosher salt

Yes, it's certainly not bug free, there are bugs that need to be fixed. Worst persistent one I've had is that a Warlock 4/Sorcerer 8 multiclass I have always tries to upcast all warlock spells (like Hex or Misty Step) with their highest level slot, which are Sorcerer spell slots. Very annoying and not worth.

That said, I would not discourage anyone from getting this game on the basis that it has some bugs. I doubt most new players would know how deal with multiclassing bugs, and probably would be multiclassing in the first place.

Main thing I'm missing is the ability to collapse comment threads. I'd prefer to not have to scroll past tons of replies to find the next main thread in a comment section.

Fox News is the worst, but all 24-hour new outlets are just stoking the flames by telling their viewers things that will rile them up. Honestly giving them any platform, even here, doesn't help anything.

Because Bethesda made some of the my most enjoyed games ever on the first engine, and presumably the successor will be better.

I have high expectations for Creation Engine 2. Bethesda got a lot out of the original. I have no doubt that they've taken their time with Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 just to make sure this engine is ready for them.

As hyped as I am for Starfield, I can't help but think that it's basically a massive scale beta test for Elder Scrolls 6, just to make sure all the kinks are worked out before they release the successor to Skyrim.
