Beet Wagon posted:I don't know whether to feel blessed or cursed by my inability to launch Star Citizen lmao. For the last two days I've been getting an error code any time I try and launch it. Some of the suggested workarounds are intense: What the actual gently caress are they doing in your hosts file? No, stop it, you buggers are going to make me download this piece of poo poo and start poking at this rancid bag of smashed arseholes with a suitably long stick. You can't make me. I have an actual gaming backlog of actual games that vary from good to middling. Why would I wallow in this insult to cess pits? Inacio posted:actually parachutes would be a bad thing. if you land anywhere outside the designated fidelity zones in a city, you cant do anything because it's all fake. https://gfycat.com/farvelvetyballpython I would think that a robust C-RAM system would be the cornerstone of any gritty libertarian corporatist utopia where men are men, women are men and life is cheap with inevitable consequences.

1) Chafing. 2) Who even looks like that. Even the military has a range of body types up to and including 'husky'. 3) Nobody needs pockets in the future? Running back to throw in 4) Even in high wind I wouldn't walk as though I'd poo poo myself. Hav fucked around with this message at 16:17 on May 26, 2020 |

There are so very, very few reasons to ever use that file, and the very few people who need to generally understand why they need to and understand the implications. And for that reason alone it feels like a very CIG thing to do. But at least on my rig it's unblemished.

The mind says "not even someone fresh out of college would do that", but then there are the thousands of TCP-connections, the need for admin rights, the need to delete the user folder which is somehow below the game directory and all the other stuff which makes you think again...

For those times when your credit card is maxed and you still want to feel the experience of the Star Citizen world, you copy their webpage and redirect everything back to your local machine so you can still feel that sugar rush of buying everything.

A cool addenda to the SoftRAM story is that originally, the software company tried to sue the reviewing company because they claimed the software didn't do what they said it did. That case was brought before a judge, who basically said if you're going to make these claims about the software, you need more evidence. So the reviewing company collected all the evidence and presented their case, which wound up getting it on the FTC's radar, which lead to the software company's downfall. So in a world where the developers never tried to sue someone for a review, the fraud could have continued indefinitely. So the "HOW DARE YOU" gambit oftentimes has unintended consequences. A lesson for our times indeed.

Xtradrv and Stacker were legit for HDDs, though. 137Mb Hard drives were living large, and you eked a bit more space out of the int13 VxD drivers that de/compressed files on the fly. They were literally amazing for large text collections because 10:1 was effortless and realtime. RAM Compressors were always scams, though.

Zazz Razzamatazz posted:My favorite part (well second favorite after seeing it just balanced on its nose on the ground, twitching around) was that the only way he had to find the Idris was to be in third person mode just looking around. None of the half dozen HUD displays could tell him something as simple as "capital ship over there". What's all that churning and bubbling? You call that a radar screen?

Amazing boviscopophobic posted:I don't keep tabs on the tracker anymore, but back when I did, I occasionally saw outages. The longest one in my records was about 74 hours starting 2018-09-18 at around 14:50 UTC. You can verify that this outage shows up in the public spreadsheet. There were also subsequent outages of < 2 hours on 2018-09-21 and 2018-09-25. In all of 2017, there were 6 periods lasting anywhere from 1-9 hours where the tracker did not report additional revenue. Well drat, I stand corrected. Perhaps it is not a blatant lie after all!

I wouldn't be surprised if the launcher uses UPnP to open ports on the router/firewall, exposing the LAN to the Internet. That would be very consistent with CIG's customer support system exposing the user tags
