How shit is this festival that if one act falls through they cancel the entire fucking thing…

Haha not yet.

I was eyeing up the Dresden Files recently so I may give that a try once I am done with “The Remaining”, I do still have 40 or so Outlanders books though so there is that :p

I am loving seeing all these updates to one of my favourite games of all time. I just wish I had the time to return and play through everything again!

Since my last reply to one of these I have got through a few things.

I finished what was left of Dungeon Crawler Carl which was good, I’m looking forward to more.

Read a few Outlanders books again which was nice to go back to.

And now currently half way through the third book of “The Remaining” series of books by Molles. It is alright so far.

I’m sorry but that is just blatantly not true, there is no way you are keeping up with a road bike on the road with 2.8 off road tyres.

My MTB with 2.8 front and 2.6 rear takes considerably more effort to ride on the road than my road bike with 700 x 28c tyres, not only that once you are up to speed those tyres are actively working against you maintaining that speed.

Sure you can “roll over curbs and mud” easier but that isn’t really the point, if you are doing long distances on mostly roads or light gravel like OP suggests then you are going to want something more efficient to help you cover that distance and huge tyres are working against you every step of the way.

On top of that you are going to be spending a lot of extra money constantly replacing those massive tyres where they are wearing super quick being run on hard surfaces that they aren’t designed for.

Factor in also the drastically increased weight of all that extra rubber you are dragging around if you were to run absurdly sized tyres like 2.8s for light gravel work and really this is just terrible, misinformed advice.

This list may help you out

Settings - Appearance - Themes and then change device mode to android should stop the app from changing for you. It is something that has happened for quite a long time but since I changed that option it hasnt happened for me again :)

If you open an image post it should force the app to display properly again when the half screen bug happens.

I have them tagged as “ex pig”, so not just a bootlicker they are filth. Obligatory ACAB.

If a business only has some shitty Instagram or Facebook page or wants to only be contactable via WhatsApp then they don’t deserve my fucking business.

Oh shit, I remember playing a demo for this probably around 1999 and enjoying it a lot but I never played the full game!

I’m not saying that it was a fault of pop more my install of it seemed to have issues for whatever reason :)

Plenty of people say that they work fine using wine and lutris. I however have spent 10s of hours trying to get them to work. I had one game work successfully one time and I thought i had cracked it but upon rebooting the system and returning to play more it just constantly crashed again.

I’m sure the issue lies with me somewhere and I havent tried it for a while but just be prepared for a fucking frustrating time if it doesnt just work like so many people claim it does for them.

I have the idea that it may have been my install of pop os that was causing me issues as I could never get arc raiders to load via steam and that is a game that most people said ran absolutely fine I just got sick of spending hours fucking about with things rather than playing games so ended up putting win 10 back on my machine with intention to return and try a different distro but just haven’t got around to it yet.

This just shows how different everyone is though. The only trips I regret are the ones where I have gone with other people. Travelling with other people is the fucking worst for me and it just ruins any trip having another person there with me, no matter the relationship.

OP is gonna need to try both though to get a feel for what they like.

Reading this thread and lots of people saying no uploads is normal. I know most of what I share is pretty niché but I upload 100s of things every day and I thought that was normal :/

I have used quik for a little over two years now and don’t think I have had any issues but now you got me wondering xD

I’m pretty sure mine just works as it should, I never had any issues receiving things that I’m aware of, I just installed it and forgot about it.

I feel the same but what it comes down to for me is I hate Nintendo IPs and for the most part it is the Nintendo games that bring people to their consoles.

Pretty much everything else is available elsewhere. Or at least that is the impression I get. Does the console have any noteworthy exclusives that aren’t Nintendo characters.

Pokemon would be the main thing that appealed for me too but I liked red, blue, stadium and that was about it. I didnt play much after that and what I did didnt stick so I think I’d have similar feelings to you towards the new ones.

I don’t blame you, I was very close to doing so and didn’t really feel it was worth it by the time I was done.

I will say I did watch the show as well and it kind of deviates from the source before sorting of coming back together with it and then deviating again. You can kind of watch it some what as its own thing.

It was pretty mid though still so on the whole I really liked the concept as it was presented initially but then both book and TV developed in directions that I think were a bit dull.

Oh, shame, I find it hits the exact same spots as Carl for me. I’ll be honest, I thought it was the same reader to begin with, however I know how much the narrator can negatively effect how you feel about what you are listening to.

I disagree on Silo being a page turner. I found it an utter slog with no real pay off, especially the second book.

Beware Of Chicken is fucking awesome though and I never really hear people mention that!
