Actually almost all of the main characters suck. VSD isn't quite so annoying, though, as Kell or Kai - he's a Superman but is emo about failing.

Time. So I've been averaging 6ish hours a week. It wants me to be closer to 8, so I need to up my training a bit.

isn't the opposite always happen in the past how many thousand of vietnam collaborator flee to usa after the war was lost same with afgan

I haven't read those in a while, not even sure I finished the trilogy. Kell is the Martyest of Marty Sues. I always liked his name though.

What does "volume" represent?

My training is going pretty well. The run came back quickly and I'm feeling fast again. It's still a grind to get out on a Sunday and put up a 7+ run in an hour, but it is definitely the discipline I am most comfortable with. Biking is tough right now with the cold. I've done a few rides in the garage on the trainer, but I definitely need to put more hours in when it warms up. The swim has been the most fun. I swim at an outdoor pool in the mornings twice a week. I get up and out there around 6 and then jump in the shower around 6:45, and I've been getting to work with no issues. I started a program called Tridot that gives me swim workouts. My watch actually tells me what to do and beeps at me when it is time to go, and vibrates when I'm on the last lap. It makes it easy to follow. Unfortunately my watch has crashed a few times mid-workout. I don't really want to buy a new Garmin, but we will see. Also Tridot gives me grades on my workouts and weird graphs like this:

I'll hop on to my old save and see what happened. I wonder if it'll work with mine because I technically got them to compromise while taking the archive.

We're getting just crazy amounts of rain in western Washington. They're talking about ten inches (25 cm) over the last few days; rivers are flooding left and right. It's breaking all kinds of records. Thanks Hawaii for the pineapple express.

In the 1.0.6.0 Patch Notes it states: "The player is now able to continue the quest "An Equitable Arrangement" if they have captured The Archive independently from allying with either faction beforehand." I still cannot find where to progress the quest or who to talk to.

Sorry, I misspelled the topic title. Single class isn't necessarily a thing.

Hey everyone, I'm dying to try a one-handed pistol build. Please advise me on which classes to take.

Star Wars: Outlaws - Pretty interesting so far. The world looks great and it is busy with lots of NPC's. The story and characters are solid. Your furry sidekick is adorable and useful. The controls are weird. It's a game designed for a controller but really doesn't need to be. I prefer M&K, and it is way better for looking around and firing the blaster, but it has some awkward bits. You don't have to reinvent the wheel, plenty of 3rd person games already have good keyboard layouts that you can copy. The stealth is a bit sloppy too. It plays a bit like the Hitman games. It is serviceable. Anyways, should be a fun game to play over winter break. I'm watching Solo as well, which is a good companion movie to the game. Honestly the game makes a lot more sense if you've watched all the animated stuff. The Pikes and Crimson Dawn aren't exactly mainstream Star Wars lore.

And they can use the war as an excuse to throw Venezuelans out of the country too, no?

It's their play style. The play like little b***es...

I mean the US needs new veterans. I would imagine that since it's been a while from the last war the army is getting to be inexperienced. Looks like a perfect low risk opportunity, they just need Venezuela to fight back a little.

Allegedly we could get an announcement for a new Divinity title by Larian. Icon on teased Game Awards statue seems to align pretty well with recently discovered Divinity trademark. Which sounds like soon, with it would line up if they want to do Early Access again within the next year or so. https://mp1st.com/news/report-tga-statue-mystery-solved-new-divinity-trademark-uncovered-as-new-icon-matches-statue

Blackbeard, err... Trump says the US has seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela Avast, me mateys. There be oil in them thar tankers. Arr, time to waylay the skurvy dogs. No news on whether the crew were forced to walk the plank. Maybe they were tossed into lifeboats so the navy can target them from afar?

so microsoft are pushing ai into windows 11 look like they really want to forced user to attempt linux dread the day windows 11 are forced on everyone

Can't agree with that. There have been a lot of complaints- including in that article- about people being forced to go straight into combat after short training and the low life expectancy that brings. Or at least, there is the strong perception that that happens, which is probably more important than the objective reality in this case. And a fair few complaints at various times that even skilled/ specialist personnel are being forced into front line positions due to manpower shortages. End of the day if the majority were going into drone units or logistics or other 'cushy' jobs- or if that were the perception- they'd have a lot less problem with desertion in the first place. Not sure they can legally. Or if it was ever intended as a practical suggestion as opposed to a sort of 'aspirational' idea intended to put pressure on Russia and pander to anti immigration types. Don't think it really worked at all in either respect if it was.

Dispatch. Very good for a barely interactive cartoon, but a very uneven experience. The whole package is carried by a handful of amazingly written and well-animated character moments.

By most accounts Ukraine is rarely forcing soldiers into the actual frontline trenches. Majority of AWOLs and shirkers won't turn violent if not forced to. How long they can keep up this approach is another matter.

Reading the Blood of Kerensky books, forgot what kind of writer Stackpole is but remembered it a minute or two after buying it. Cheap at least, have to say Phelan Kell is a special character.

I deleted the saves, kept only one, no dice I now cannot even get into the game, no matter if I have all my saves or just the one, as soon as I select a save to load, it crashes with the same error, and now reinstall is not solving it, I have done so 5 times already. I guess I will wait for the next hotfix. Back to Sons of the forest on the meantime then hahaha

Periodically, when I am in the middle of a battle, my equipped weapon will stop shooting. I can aim, I can throw grenades, I can activate any abilities, however shooting or swinging with a melee weapon stops functioning. I can escape and go to menu and click items there, but then when I go back into the game itself, I have the same issue. I can click out of the game into another window, then click back into the game window and it doesn't fix it. When everything is working, I can still click in and out of Outer Worlds 2 to windows on another screen and back with no issues. If I close out the game and re-enter, it starts working again. Any suggestions on things to adjust in the settings to prevent this?
