This happens so many times. I’m a pretty firm believer in walking away for 15 minutes is a crucial part of the debugging process. It’s just hard sometimes to know when to stop and stop trying shit for a bit.
Also rubber duck debugging, I’ll talk to my dog but fuck it works so many times. Shes helpful.
Have you watched the show or just seen clips? He really doesn’t go off on them that much. And when he does usually it’s very deserved. Like he does not stand for deplorable conditions and mistreatment of staff. Like if he finds out an owner isn’t taking good care of their staff he makes sure they know its not okay.
But genuinely 3/4ths of an episode is him trying to help them improve with genuine empathy and understanding. He comes in, points out whats wrong with some gusto for the clips and then is like “hey so what’s going on? I’m sure you weren’t always this disconnected from what’s going on” and works with them to solve their issues which is usually more attitude and just like some guidance. Usually to they do a top to bottom cleaning and organizing of the restaurant for them.
Obviously you’ll hear more about the very rare episodes where they have the most famous chef in the world giving them advice and they just won’t hear it. Like people quote Amys Bakery because the owners flipped out at him pointing out raw pastries kept leaving the kitchen and then getting all shitty when he’s like don’t steal waiters tips.
It’s like the newest episode is him helping a family business out where the brothers weren’t even talking and the parents had to help instead of retire. He got the brothers to work together, remodeled the entire kitchen for them, held a make wish charity event at their grand opening on his dime, and did a bunch of training. It even had a 2 month check in where it was doing much better. But I’m sure you’ll only see a tiktok clip from when he found a box of raw chicken that made the whole crew throw up and he’s like “what the fuck?!” Which yeah, what the fuck? And this was a restaurant that had been health inspected recently. If anything it makes you loose faith in health inspectors. Idk wtf they are doing
Sent back for breaking defect.
Here’s the 17 steps to repro…
They lie about seeders though which is mad annoying. Like they add a minimum of 20 to everything
There’s a general sense of you should try to ethically pirate. Like no one cares if you shoplift from Walmart, but you’re a dick doing it to the local mom and pop grocery store who’s barely getting by.
On a more selfish level, paying for the things you enjoy shows whoever made it they’ll get money for it. Simple as that. If you really enjoy something stealing it isn’t going to convince them to make more. There’s been more than once where a game or show got pirated more than bought legally and it’s killed any future projects for it.
How is two taps, the second needing to be precise less movement than one general swipe?
I’m pro net neutrality and all for getting it on the books.
But has any company broken net neutrality since it was repealed? I haven’t seen some of the stuff we expected. Maybe they wanted to lay low on it but like Comcast hasn’t restricted Netflix and pushed out 10x for Peacock stream or anything. I’m sure some stuff would go down eventually. But curious if this has happened
There’s a big 2nd hand market for people sharing Plex servers with people for money on eBay and stuff. Idk if Plex goes out of their way to hunt those down but they are violating tos. I’ve seen pictures of servers with 200+ active users before. It was a bigger problem when Drive had uncapped storage because you could duplicate a blob with a click and link a new Plex instance to it and leverage Google’s servers for just about everything.
So I doubt it’s just families snitching. It’s probably copyright holders hunting down these and other streaming websites and figuring out where the stream is coming from and reporting to Heztner. That’s standard mo. They don’t send you a copyright notice they send your ISP a notice and vaguely threaten them. And then your ISP tells you. That’s always how it worked.
Really dial in the sensitivity I’d say. It took me like legit cranking it up and then adjusting down by 2% at a time to find a sweet spot. But it’s definitely much more responsive and tighter than any other Fallout-esque game they’ve done. Those always felt mushy.
I’ll say too it’s probably that the games aim assist is very light. Like almost hardly there. For a single player offline game it could use a small increase. Like I’m still able to head shot dudes but it’s noticeable, and combined with muscle memory for similar games, having hardly any ‘magnetism’ is an adjustment. I keep meaning to look if there’s a slider in the settings.
“not a failure” I called it frustrating and death by a thousand cuts. Just because I don’t screech failure and send Todd Howard death threats doesn’t mean I’m not being critical of the game. Get some reading comprehension and don’t set the bar at hyperbole. Saying the thing you do 75% of the time is fun isn’t calling it a rousing success either by any means.
Why didn’t you pick any of the more negative traits? Like your example is the most basic harmless one. There’s ones with way more downsides. Did you pick the ‘2 loving parents’ trait and are mad they don’t kill you on sight? lmao. Like I picked wanted where I always have a bounty and it’s cool. I’ve had a bounty hunter show up in the middle of a boss fight before. Both in space and on ground. Added a decent complication. A few of the others are pretty long term negatives like weakening aids and food.
I also don’t know if you explored much because the game has a pretty robust ailments system. Like if you pre-plan sure you can have all the expensive cures on hand, but you can get quite a few ailments at once from fucking around. I had a cough for like 4 hours because I couldn’t find an aid for it. I eventually had to go to a doctor to get rid of it.
I had Vasco become a part of the door to the cockpit. I couldn’t enter. I had to leave the ship and hit the specific ‘to cockpit’ button for a few hours because reloading didn’t save him from his torment. Only bug I’ve had but was weird lol.
I think it’s fun, but I’m a run and gun kind of guy. So I’m having a blast shooting dudes in the face. The shooting is much better than Fallout. I LOVE fighting in the zero gravity arenas. It’s so cool like floating between pillars and headshotting a guy off in the distance and his body is now bopping around. Those are so rare though. Idk how I can find more.
But overall I find the game frustrating outside battles. It’s like death by a thousand cuts though. There’s no one thing that’s egregious but there’s just stacking outdated design choices that continually build up. The games indecision around flying your ship being an easy catch all for the multiple failures in making your ship mean anything outside of battles and the map system. For the love of God fix the slide, you slide like 2inches. There’s also a constant battle with backing out of menus. Idk.
But then I find some spacer trap house and have a good time blasting away. Excited for when I can actually can craft bespoke weapons.
The RNC debate was a pretty big red alert. One of the more popular candidates literally said “climate change is a hoax” and got applause. And most of them would at least admit it was real but immediately talked about removing ‘government restrictions’ unfairly placed on corporations and climate change is an excuse to burn money for the current party.
Pretty cool…
Yeah I wish there was a setting that’s like if it’s released in the last two years just grab it. I always have an issue with my peeps wanting old stuff. Like my uncle was like that and I let his shows auto approve but then he asked for some show from 2019 with 8 seasons and it grabbed like 200gbs of shows in a few hours and I was like “nope, no more”
I don’t think so, but I’ve never had someone do that on the old system. They always want all 16 seasons of some old show lol. Drives me crazy. My brother asks for a show every two weeks and be like where are they? And I’ll respond with the like last 12 shows he asked for with zero watch time from tautilli
Yeah I’ve been trying to cut out the middle man. My family isn’t technically proficient and I found just having it sync straight to Sonarr and Radarr was saving me a step since I always have them open and already have them accessible on my website. Since TV shows was the only thing I don’t have auto approve it just made the decision on letting it search or going out and manually finding a pack happen at the point that matters to me.
But yeah I still have the request site up but thinking of taking it down because I still have some issues pop up and less moving parts is better for me.
It’s also a plus for me because I use NZB360 to manage everything on my phone which is much better with Sonarr and Radarr
Fwiw there’s a new feature in Plex you have to opt into but the Sonarr and Radarr devs figured out how to use it. So you can make it so things people add to their watchlist on Plex get sent to the 'arrs. Like I have it auto add movies and search for them with the typical profile and then add TV shows unmonitored and send me a text message.
Really simplifies everything. Like now my grandma doesn’t have to go to a website and stuff. Since even if you turn off the free TV spam the search function will still return things you don’t have and let you naturally add it to your watchlist and even put it in a recently added bar on the watchlist page when it’s there.
Eu salivating over it’s monoply case
