Hav posted:Just spent nearly a grand getting our eighteen-year-old cat's remaining teeth pulled so she can eat without pain; between that and appetite stimulant, she's been filling out nicely. That's okay. My cat is 5 - 6 (he was a rescue so age is sort of ambivalent), and perfectly toothed. He caught a mouse once. When I tried to take it from him (having images of finding rotten bits of mouse throughout my apartment), it turned out the mouse appeared perfectly fine and unblooded and was just playing dead. Never saw it again. My cat, like me, is a dork.

She's terrible at hunting though, couldn't even kill a rat.

I had a cat once that would catch a bird, bring it in and eat all of it apart from its face and beak. It looked like it was done by a surgeon, how precise it was. Just a little face and beak on the floor / on the bed usually

I rescued it, perfectly healthy, and released it in the garden, not realizing that six years later the little fucker would still be digging up the lawn. Her father was a Ginger and used to like bringing snakes home, but he was also a bit absent-minded, so you'd find them around the place. He also lost his teeth early, so they'd usually be a bit damp, but otherwise okay. Still a surprise to find an extremely clean snake in the washing machine _after_ the cycle. He went out one night and never came back; we assume that Coyotes got him, as a bunch of the small mammals went missing in the area around the same time. peter gabriel posted:I had a cat once that would catch a bird, bring it in and eat all of it apart from its face and beak.

ACTUAL RESULT You will respawn in your bed at the start station with your helmet on. GPU & CPU cores average in the 40%-50% when below 10 players after more players join performance drops off after CPU & GPU chug with resources averaging 80%- 100% When aboard ship attempting to exit the door the door doesn't open. The opposite door opens from the one I selected. Windows is designed to interpret that combination of keys as a task-switch request and minimize Star Citizen. Player will not stand up, and you are unable to use suicide option  very low fps 3 instate of 40 fps hopefully in the future stable 60 and more Sorry for wasting the time doing this. Game gets backgrounded, Window's "Progam has stopped working" dialog pops up. But, the game shows the Team setup menu for Star Marine, not the view of Crusader.  The menu comes up, but the view behind it really, really weird. The game minimize and you're back to your desktop. The GPU usage climb to 100%. I heard strange audio that did not belong in Garrety's armor shop just before the game crashed to desktop. There was no crash handler to take notes. Just a message from windows 10 saying the program had stopped working. Wasn't able to go to Crusader or Area18 because both buttons were missing. Look how your character puts his hands as if he was holding a weapon Game crashes, I will try and record issue The main menu popped up over top of my game with the ship UI still showing parts of the HUD. I was able to fly around and do stuff while interacting with the main menu Clipping out through wall ending up in space EVA watching ship off into distance. Greycat's rear wheels fell through floor of Freelancer Own character stuck at the top of the ladder, unable to look around or perform any actions except typing in chat. EXPECTED RESULT Objects shown correctly. ich würde ja so gerne helfen aber dieses englisch macht mich fertig. i have no clue, something trippy i guess, atleast not crashing to the desktop, spaghettification or molecular destruction seems quite right. its not really something you should or would do, but still in a game all "bugs" must be reported. normal character control To be able to launch the game and play it. I expect to be able to park a P52 inside one of the bays of my Caterpillar and be able to transport it to other places without the game classing me as an Outlaw and placing me in Grim Hex on restart. Download Finishes and game is playable I should have run normally normal 90 fps For the reticle to allign in the middle of the screen The flash light should remain on your suit even when changing to a new suit, and it should work would like complete at least one mission. Arena commander seems to be doing good though I am poor shot , but I haven't been to as high levels The invisible radar object shouldn't be there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lb4OcR6uIOU&t=93s

My cat is a murder-machine. I attribute this to her quick stint on the streets, since when she showed up she was litter box trained, someone obviously dumped her nearby.

I have a solution to all of your rabbit-catching cats:  Get a cat-sized rabbit, your cat will be forced to make friends with it instead.

It starts with streaming. Moves on to vaping. Before you know it you are in a dark alley mainlining pure crack using a shovel off a hooker's tits and wondering what is going on in the world. From here the only place to go is jpegs. Pusher. Head of marketing.

Hav posted:Yeah, we're actually five years in now, so it's getting harder to compare other development _favorably_. Especially given the list of mechanics not sorted out. Inevitably reality vs perception is going to catch up and the narrative will change to "they're doing things no other company has the balls to do" and at that point there's nothing you can compare against. There will always be, however, the crushing fact that everything CIG does is broken, half assed, and poo poo, except the graphics. I guess the real exciting thing here is we're going to see how far lies and good graphics can get you. So far we're 5+ years in with nothing close to the promises, and over 100 million dollars. That's pretty good, unfortunately.

Ryse, The Order and plenty of other games show that good graphics don't carry a bad or even mediocre game very far. Citizens will continue to praise it and play it due to sunk cost fallacy is my bet.

Decades ago I had a cat that would eat slugs, then throw them up on the living room carpet. Best of all worlds; eat an essentially defenseless mucous blob, then make it even more disgusting by turning it into vomit. I half heartedly want to look up my use of the semicolon there, but gently caress it, just post.
