texts: What is the highest effective enchantment level?

texts:
After reading this question, I wondered if the enchantment was actually effective up to a certain level, or does it just keep going up to the maximum enchantment level?

[Edited Clarification]: As an example, if I created a sword with the "Sharpness" enchantment at level 1, and for every level I increased the enchantment, would it become more powerful for every level I increased it, or would it stop at a certain level?


texts: Does continuing to donate past 999 achieve anything?

texts:
Related question - What does the donation machine do?

In BoI: Rebirth, you can donate to a machine in the shop room, and as you put in more and more money, you can unlock things.

When you hit 999 coins in the machine, you unlock an item and the machine blows up. I figured that was the end of that.

However, on my next playthrough, the machine was back! So I have dutifully been feeding more money into it. However I'm up to a couple of hundred gold in there now and it doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Am I wasting my money? Or will this 2nd round of donating eventually unlock something awesome?


texts: In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, what happens if you time travel earlier in the day?

texts: Let's say it's Sunday, and I buy a bunch of turnips, but while I'm trying to buy them, noon rolls around and now I can't buy any more turnips. If I turn the clock back an hour, will any of the negative side effects of time travel occur? Will I use my Nook Miles streak? Will my turnips spoil just because I went back an hour in time? I've already invested hundreds of thousands of Bells, so I'm not daring enough to experiment with this, but I would find it useful to know if I can at least manipulate the time of day (without crossing 5AM either way) without consequence.


texts: Does Starcraft 2 credits automatically increase whenever I enter the game?

texts: I am very new to Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty, and I just purchased the game. So after purchasing few things from the armory, I had around 30,000 credits left, and I saved&exited the campaign. Then, when I entered the campaign again to the ship, I had over 100,000 credits! So, I saved, exited the game, and entered again, only to see that I now have over 200,000 credits. It looks like that every time I enter campaign, I get a lot of free credits. This is obviously a good thing, but what is happening? Is this going to slowly take real money from my credit card? Is this going to end?


texts: In Sim City 4, what does the "obliterate city" animation supposed to represent?

texts:
Having spent countless hours building, developing and managing cities in Sim City 4, one element of the game has always perplexed me.

Whenever a player decides to destroy a city and start from scratch, upon clicking on the "obliterate city" option, the city doesn't simply disappear, but instead is preceded by a very eerie animation sequence of star-like lights appearing in the sky, coupled with bright flashes of white light and hauntingly creepy sound effects.

What are those floating stars and flashes of light supposed to be? A nuclear explosion? Some sort of divine apocalypse? Or maybe a reference to something?


texts:
I was playing on a Minecraft server when I flew across a large cube of enchanting tables. I then asked in chat why did people build them and one of the players told me that it was a lag machine and told me to destroy it. I did what he said but I was confused. How can enchanting tables lag the server and lower its TPS? When I was destroying it, there was no lag and the server TPS stayed at 20. There has also been a player who claimed that enchanting table cubes were used for chunk-banning players. However, when I was there with another player, none of us got chunk-banned. Can enchanting table cubes really lag the server and chunk-ban people? Thank you.
Server is on MC version 1.16.4.

texts: How to unlock Christmas-themed summoner Icons

texts:
Considering this questions is quite outdated, as well as its answers, I decided to open a new, more targeted one.

As some of you may know in League of Legends has been released a set of Christmas-themed summoner icons that can be unlocked by players who fulfil certain criteria, such as never having been banned or having entered a queue with a 5-man-team during the Christmas period.

So, what are the exact conditions required for every one of the available icons?

texts:
In optimal conditions, best material, best workmanship, highest skill of the required type for the wielding dwarf.

Best weapon is fastest kill. This is only about offensive ability!

I'm talking about most enemies encountered. The more squishy, fleshy type. Not one that are made of bone or metal. Of course, even squishy enemies wear armor, take that into consideration.

Example of enemies that fit into that category:

Kobold
Elf
[enter animal here]-man
Vampire
Ogre
Minotaur
Necromancer (apparently not a good example, disregard.)
Yeti
Reacher

On Day 29 I received an Obristan passport that I could get forged so that I can leave for Obristan. At the end of days 29, 30, and 31 I only have the option of escaping by myself, not with my whole family. I have more than enough money to cover the cost of forging passports for my whole family (I have over 300 credits, and I didn't adopt my niece), but I'm never given the option to escape with my family.

I think that I need to get 4 more Obristan passports, but I'm never given the option to do so.


texts: ED-E turned hostile and I can't complete it's quest

texts:
I had ED-E and Cass as my companions for a while, but I decided to go solo so I left them waiting in my home. After some days they returned to their respective origin places.

I lost the perk provided by ED-E so I decided to recruit it again, but when I went to John Nash's store it turned hostile and attacked everyone in the room. I tried to let it unconscious by shooting but I killed it instead, hence failing it's related mission.

I've read around the Internet about this behavior, it happens if you left ED-E "abandoned" for too long. But I can't find a way to make it join me again and not being hostile. Any help is appreciated.

Why did everyone say he is immortal?
What did they mean when they said he could be a l'Cie? Why?
How come they indeed manage to kill him then?

texts: What tools were used to analyze & challenge the records for Dragster?

texts:
I was reading an article on Polygon which was talking about a longstanding record for an Atari Game called Dragster.  In the article it was talking about how people challenged the record by using "tools" to dispute how the record would be achieved without cheats.

Would anyone have an idea what tools they could be referring to? They talk about analyzing the code. The link in the article takes you to a spreadsheet which lets you change values.  Also is this a typical practice for challenging records in video games?

I've added the article below for reference:

texts: What are the different versions of Sonic the Hedgehog (1991) and what differs between them?

texts:
So, it is my understanding that while most of the ports of Sonic the Hedgehog 1991 are straight ports, there are a few officially-released versions of the game out there with gameplay differences.  Here are the different "versions" of the game that I know of:

Sonic the Hedgehog (US release) (Genesis) - The original release
Sonic the Hedgehog (JP release) (Genesis) - A few minor changes associated with this version.  The clouds move in Green Hill Zone, the water ripples in Labyrinth Zone, the stages are in order in the level select screen, and some bugs have been fixed.  This version was the one featured in Sonic Jam.
Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis (Game Boy Advance) - This port adds in the spin dash from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 as well as a few additional features.  However, this port is infamous for its bugs, glitches, and slowdown.
Sonic the Hedgehog (iOS/Android) - This port adds the spin dash as well as Tails and Knuckles into the game.  Some levels have been slightly redesigned.
3D Sonic the Hedgehog (3DS) - Sonic the Hedgehog with the spin dash and 3D graphics.

So, my question are thus:

Did I miss any major game revisions in the list that I have?
Did I miss out on other official ports that include game changes?  I do not want any ROMhacks the be included in the answer.

Okay, so there are currently two accounts in my Switch system, and I wanted to see if the second account (lovingly named as Guest) has a different save file or something. I soon found out that it did; I was sent to the character creation rather than from where I left it off in Account #1.

Anyway, other details aside, I picked the same starter Pokémon again in this second account rather than a different one, so I'm wondering if there's a way to delete Account #2's save file without affecting Account #1's save file (kinda saved already, so... yeah. Also, the 1st account is already at mid-game, so I'll be bummed if that gets deleted).

texts: What can I do with the physical copies of my Steam games?

texts:
Once I've bought a physical copy of a game and activated it on Steam, is there any way I can return/recycle/whatever it? I realise that should I want to re-install the game later the dvd would make it much easier/faster, but I don't think that potential gain balances the pain of having to carry around 20-30 game boxes every time I move (about once a year).

I don't expect there's a lot I can do, as I don't want to give away the games (i.e., I want to keep it on Steam), but just throwing them away seems wasteful, and I don't think anybody would actually pay for a dvd, even dirt cheap, just to make their own installation faster (if that would even work).

Any bright ideas? Anything I can do?

texts: Do barrels and other containers degrade with use in Dwarf Fortress?

texts:
In the current version of Dwarf Fortress (0.47.04), there are barrels that your dwarves can use to store food, water, seeds, etc. Usually in my fortresses, I use them to store large quantities of drinks in a drink stockpile, and this doesn't cause any problems. (Well, other than the usual problems.)
However, I've noticed that over time, my brewers start to run out of barrels to store drinks in, which cancels their brewing task for reasons of "no suitable container."
This is odd to me, because while it makes sense that barrels are also getting filled with food and seeds and maybe that causes previously empty barrels to be filled again, I could swear that I never have enough barrels and have to constantly make more, despite churning them out by the hundreds at my carpenter stations and only keeping stockpiles of about 200-300 drinks at a time.
This makes me suspect that there's some kind of mechanic for barrels degrading or breaking with frequent use, or that there is some kind of glitch or hidden mechanic that I wasn't aware of associated with barrel storage and container storage. But after scouring the forums and reading the wiki article about how barrels and other containers work, there's just this one note that makes me think this could be an alternate explanation for my lack of barrels:

Alcohol must be brewed into either a barrel or pot. Each container can hold a single stack of alcohol. Larger batches should be, but aren't, split across multiple containers automatically.

So, are my fortress's disappearing barrels due to barrels degrading, or is it due to my dwarves being terrible at splitting batches across multiple containers? Or some other explanation?

A successful jump would land you near the golden statue on the other side of the building.


texts:
In Temple Run 2, there seems to be the sensation that the running speed increases on long uninterrupted runs, in terms of turns coming up faster, being able to jump farther, and picking up coins more quickly.  But in terms of the posted distances that appear, those seems to be accumulated at a steady rate not connected to the apparent running speed.

That is, whether I've just started a run or have been 20k meters without a stumble, the amount of time it takes to go from one distance sign to the next (500 meters) always seems to be about the same (15 seconds.)  If there is a boost powerup or ability, it always seems to be about 5 or 6 seconds between the 500m signposts that appear, not connected to how long its been going or how fast it seems.

Has anyone done more careful measurements about the running speed increasing?  It seems to be not reflected in terms of the amount of time it takes to travel a fixed distance of 500 meters.  My impression is that the signposts are just counting time, not distance.

It's a slayer type game in which the player is given a sniper rifle, an energy sword, and the boost armor ability, and the mini-map is disabled. The objective is to become the deadliest ninja, but all it is, is a team slayer game. At the bottom of the screen while playing however, there is a ninja level counter with 1-3 out of 3. This count goes up when you get a kill, but seems to have no real significance. Is it pointless or does it have a cause?

Will there be any significant differences in our experience that might be disruptive to play due to only one of us having the expansion?

Each other person shows not only their opinion of me, but also my opinion of them. I know that their opinion of me is important in all kinds of ways, but what is my opinion of them for?

For example, my wife likes me well enough, but I don't like her much:

Does that impact the chance of having children, maybe? If so, it doesn't seem like it has much of an impact, since we've already had two children after not many years.

And as far as I know there's no way to switch your character aside from death*, so it's not as if the opinion your current character has will matter after you take control of your heir. I suppose it can indicate incompatibilities between me and other people that might flag problems I should deal with. Does it matter otherwise?

* During normal play, I mean. I know I can save and load as someone else, but the sort-of cheat of switching to NPCs to manipulate the state of a savegame doesn't interest me. I'm only interested in the opinion's relevance, if any, to actual game mechanics.


texts: How to use exclamation marks in Minecraft commands?

texts:
I know that you can use exclamation marks in Minecraft commands to check for an entity that does not have a specific tag. For example, you can use /kill @e[type=!Player] to kill all entities except for the player. I have, however, encountered two problems with using exclamation marks that I can't find a solution for.

For my first problem, I've set up a series of command blocks to summon shootable fireballs above the player’s head when a certain item is being held;

/scoreboard players add @a Fireball 1 {SelectedItem:{tag:{display:{Name:"Summon Fireball"}}}}
/execute @a[score_Fireball_min=1,score_Fireball=1] ~ ~ ~ /summon Fireball ~ ~2.5 ~ {direction:[0.0,0.0,0.0]}
/scoreboard players set @a Fireball 0

I used a comparator and a redstone torch so that the last command would activate when the first command would deactivate, that is, when the player is not holding the item.
The problem is, that when I move far away from the setup, the redstone stops working, leaving me unable to summon any new fireballs. Instead, I'm trying to use a command block to check when anything except for item is being held;

/scoreboard players set @a Fireball 0 {SelectedItem:{tag:{display:{Name:!"Summon Fireball"}}}}

I’ve either put it at the wrong place, or you simply can’t use exclamation marks in NBT tags. Could someone tell me where I should put the exclamation mark, or in the latter case, how I can check for anything except for a specific item?

Further, I’ve tried using exclamation marks to set the score of all entities, including the ones with a blank score, but except for the ones with a score of 2 or higher, to 0;

/scoreboard players set @e[score_arrows_min!=2] Arrows 0

texts: How do I identify possible EX raid gyms in my area

I've just recently learned that you can still trigger EX raids by doing (preferrably Lvl 5) raids on some gyms.

As far as i know only specific gyms are suitable for triggering EX raids.

I have 2 questions regarding those gyms:

Is there some sort of list where I can see which gyms in my area are possible EX raid gyms?
If not, how do I identify which gym is an EX raid gym?

texts: How do I unadopt my children? (preferably without killing them)

texts:
I changed my mind and would like to adopt other kids. I would like to do this without killing my children (I'm not that evil) or using the 'disable' console command on them permanently (removing them from the game), kind of like the solutions for obtaining a divorce without killing your spouse, so you could remarry.

I'm playing on the PC and would welcome solutions that are mods, console commands or save game editing and that won't have children killed or disabled (removed from the game). Preferably, they would still be alive and be back in their previous homes (or the streets) after the un-adoption.

Research info: I've searched and these are some of the forum posts I found where the same question is asked - but they contain no solutions. Some of the replies mention killing the children or using the 'disable' console command, but this won't actually 'unadopt' the children.

texts:
My friends and I have had an SMP-server for nearly 6 weeks and everything worked very well. No mods and no plugins so there can't be any problems related to them.

After about 3 weeks our normal area changed a bit. for example:

Our island we've became an ice-island.
The desert is now covered in snow
The grass changed in color.

So the biome seems to have changed.

Not to mention the spawn point is now 100 blocks from where it was originally, and it is also covered in snow and ice where previously it wasn't.

As if this wasn't bad enough, after a huge crash of our server host the same thing happened again. Our "normal" areas changed more and more in ice and snow and the spawn-point is now about 300 blocks away.

So it seems that the biomes shifted. I, with my nonexistent programming skill, would say that some data or code for our biome has changed, but I don't know how to fix it. Is there a data editor or other program that will allow me to fix this?

I've read in another question that a backup restore would be the best, but the last backup we made is a VERY long time ago, nearly our whole city would be erased. I would like to avoid that option.

I've read a lot of threads on the internet but no one knows why this happens or doesn't understand the problem. Any suggestions? I'm pulling my hair out over this one.

Overview

So, I'm playing Tekkit and Technic, and it seems like there is horrible lag. The lag is so terrible that I died trying to kill a wolf on Peaceful. I have an average of 2-3 fps for the first ~5 minutes. Once the chunks are all loaded and ready to go, I have an average of 7-13 frames per second. This is very little, considering that in normal vanilla, I average 30-50 fps.

What I have already done

I have already removed two mods, I believe one of them was Mo'Creatures and the other one was MatAmos (or whatever that is). This has increased it from unplayable to a maximum of 17 fps. These two were one of the mods that does heavy calculation, but I often am killed by a creeper or a zombie when I fluctuate from 0 to 3 fps. I have additionally turned everything in OptiFine off and have changed my render distance to Short +16.

Question

How can I reduce lag in Tekkit/Technic? Is it possible to remove some mods that I care less about, or is there an easier solution?

System Specs

Sony Vaio running Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)
6 Gigabytes of RAM, 3 given to the Technic Launcher
Intel Core i5 processor
Nvidia GPU (not sure what specs)
Java version 1.7.0_05 (32-bit since for some reason, x64 doesn't like me)

texts:
My wife, Mjoll the Lioness, walks in place and tries to walk through walls and objects. If I take her with me somewhere she won't fight, she just stands still and takes damage, even if I order her to attack.

It started when I fast travelled to my house at Lakeview Manor. A bandit said they have my wife, which started a quest to free her. Instead of going to free her right away, I went into my house, and about 30 seconds later she materialized out of nowhere. The quest was marked as completed, and she's been messed up since then.

I loaded a save from before this happened, she was still messed up even though when I saved that game she was fine.

I have a character from my old Skyrim game with 360 hours of play time, and have never had a problem. Since I cleared the game's cache and started a new playthrough it's been freezing up, people have disappeared without being killed and now my wife is messed up.

How do I fix this?

I'm playing Skyrim - Legendary Edition on the Xbox 360.


texts: How to level up at Endgame on Final Fantasy VII

texts:
I have already been through this area and I am on Disc 3, however I do not have enough HP/AP to defeat the Ruby and Emerald Weapon's, which I am wanting to do before going to face Sephiroth. I found an answer to getting those up quickly on this site:

The best place to level up in ff7 is the Swamp area in the Northern Crater, it is in the final dungeon of disc 3, but is by far the best place to level. If you are leveling to fight the optional weapons (Ruby, Emerald, Ultima)

I have already defeated the Ultima Weapon funnily enough, but the other two just wipe me out before I even get a chance to make a move, I have tried going back to the Northern crater... However when I try to go past the shack where the old man first took us before we make the climb up, he keeps coming out telling us to just forget it and I cant get any further.

Does anyone know how I can get back in there to level up? Or any other methods of quickly leveling up my Characters?

texts: Can I have 2 XBOX Live accounts from different countries on the same 360?

texts:
I live in Brazil and I have a XBOX 360. When I bought my 360, there was no Live in Brazil, so I signed up to XBOX Live US (lots of people do it here). I have two gold accounts, one is mine and one from my wife. Everything I buy (games, songs, DLC) is through pre-paid cards, and all under my account. Obviously I can use all bought content on her account too.

Now XBOX Live is available in Brazil, and they even provide a way to migrate your account from Live US keeping everything you bought. I don't want to migrate my account since because of brazilian laws not all games are available here. But since they are releasing more and more DLC with region lock, I thought about migrating only my wife's account so I can buy locked contend using her account.

My question is: can I keep two XBOX Live accounts from different countries (US and BR) in the same console, and will I be able to play content bought in one account with the other? My plan is to continue using my account to buy everything, and only use hers to buy content that is region locked (like the new Black Ops DLC, for example). But I want to be able to use all content on both accounts, of course.

Where can I find the next clue about what happened there?

texts: Did the owl statues really not exist at all in the Japanese versions of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask?

texts:
I've been reading this: https://tcrf.net/The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Majora's_Mask/Program_Revision_Differences

  In the Japanese versions, there are three save files, whereas the American version restricts you to two. This, however, comes at a price: saving at Owl Statues is not possible at all in the Japanese versions, so you were required to use the Song of Time every time you wanted to save the game. Apparently, that turned out to be really annoying, so Owl Saves were added to the American version which necessitated removing the third save slot.

And:

  These [owl statues] were added to accommodate the new system of saving at Owl Statues that was added for the American release.

Did the original game not have owl statues at all? I thought that those owl statues also indicate the spots where you can "soar" (teleport) to. So in the Japanese version, you just "soar" to random locations with no object indicating the "magical spot"? Or are they there, just that they cannot be used to "save and quit"? If so, the page linked to is wrong.
Why, as it says on the page, would having owl statues "necessitate" the removal of the third save slot? That makes no sense to me.

I'm not sure yet how exactly the death mechanics work in this game, but I respawned with some money lost. But also all my pelts were gone from my horse. I noticed at that point that my last manual save game was quite a bit ago, so I wasn't willing to reload to fix this.

Is this an intended part of the penalty for dying? Or is there a way to get those pelts back that I had stored on my hose?


texts: Pressing in random locations: what does the blue circle do?

texts:
I beat Fiz! Hooray! Time to double back with a New Game + and take on the pesky challenges that I missed!

Only one problem. I've started a new game, made my first batch of beer... And there's nowhere for me to sell it:

I can do research on this non-market (apparently it's My Bodega and they like Lager), but there's no button to sell my beer there. Nor, for that matter, are there any other markets - even though my first batch was of such high quality that I got a bunch of alerts about how I'd unlocked a stack of new marketplaces. I also tried waiting until I ran out of money paying salaries, and restarting with a fresh New Game+ multiple times with no luck.

What gives? How can I sell my delicious, delicious beer?

texts: What tactics are best for killing Deathclaws?

texts:
Everyone in Fallout tells you that Deathclaws are bad news. Everyone tells you it would be suicide to take them on alone. But this is a game, I'm the hero and I win against impossible odds all the time.

Well, it seems they really mean what they say this time. Deathclaws are extremely dangerous. They are fast, can take an absurd amount of damage, have a very high damage threshold and they kill you in a few swings.

So a typical encounter starts like this

and ends like this

In Fallout 3 you could just shoot them with the dartgun and they hobbled along while you walked backwards emptying your gun into their face.

What are effective tactics for killing Deathclaws in Fallout New Vegas? I'm not really looking for exploiting glitches like bad pathfinding, but legitimate tactics to have a good chance against those beasts.


texts: How can I set a player's max health depending on their EXP level?

texts:
This question is pretty self explanatory. Still though, how can I do this?

I tried using a repeating command block with the following command:

/effect @a[l=1,lm=1 minecraft:health_boost 3 0 true

However, whenever the command block effects the player, it resets their health back to normal. This is because the health boost resets the effect whenever it's activated.

Is there any other way to solve this?


texts: Strategy for after finished attacks and no shield

texts:
Say you just attacked a base and used up your army and have no more guard left. You want to take a break from the game. What strategies are there for minimizing the resources lost when your base gets raided?

One strategy is to fill up your queue with dragons and spells and refund them after you've been attacked. The problem with this is 1) no one might attack in the time it takes to make a dragon and even if you reset it then you've wasted time when you could've been building an army you actually wanted to use 2) if you forget then you end up with a bunch of dragons and IMHO they aren't cost effective

Another strategy is to keep making an army that you actually would use as soon as your last one is used. Since I'm trying to go for cost effective armies, this doesn't always save the most resources.

Any other ideas?

texts: What parts can safely be automated and where should I micromanage?

texts:
I usually let all my worker units roam free on automation, unless I need a specific improvement right now. I usually never care about the tiles worked by a city, at most I may switch the priorities to production or gold for some time when necessary. My scouts and other exploring units are usually set to explore automatically…

This does feel somewhat lazy, and I'm sure my empire could run more optimized if I tweaked everything by hand. On the other hand, micromanaging seems to become very complex very soon, to the point where I'd just keep missing opportunities. How much more should I care about individual details to maximize my efficiency? And where am I safe leaving the details up to the AI without it screwing me over?

The rewards seem to be small in the long run.

Also when I grab a lot of small fireballs and try to throw them, they instantly blow up sometimes.

Please note that my PS3 is European (UK) and the game is American. (I'm not sure if this is relevant but is listed just in case).

texts:
After visiting Eldergleam Sanctuary to retrieve a sapling from a big tree for a quest, whenever I "talk" to my companion by pressing "E", she (Uthgerd the Unbroken) instantly turns hostile and starts attacking me...

Strangely, If I crouched into sneak mode, then talk to her, she does not turn hostile. This extra step wasn't a big deal for me.

However, now that I need to fast travel to other cities, console says, "Unable to fast travel due to enemies nearby". My guess is that my companion is the nature of this error...

So, how do you fix your companion's relationship rating, console or non-console-wise? I've already tried setrelationshiprating using console, but it failed to fix things. I tried killing her and resurrect her, and she came back hostile.

After some tweakage, my Pip-Boy now tells me I'm "liked" by the NCR, and I've removed the "Don't Tread on the Bear!" quest (which completed saying I'm a "terrorist")... but still official NCR reps attack me on sight.

I became leader of a clan around 44 members, and we’ve got problems! We lose almost every war and people donate garbage. How can I fix this? Most people members aren’t responsive in chat. The current clan settings are:

•   War frequency once a week (though this used to be always, and at least 1 member said he wants this)
•   Clan location: USA (but I think we have people from all around the world)
•   We’re a level 4 clan

In the last war only 38/80 attacked, though we did get crushed pretty quickly. There were things like the co-leader only got 1 star in 2 attacks, should I demote him?

texts:
Every time I try to go near a bigger town in Skyrim I always get attacked by guards and/or villagers. I know that I'm a thief and a vampire (and also a Khajiit) but I don't do anything bad when someone's looking!
I think everything might have started when I tried to feed myself (with blood) in a house in Whiterun. A villager saw me and I quickly ran away from the town, with guards after me, but I didn't kill any of them.

I know that everyone in Whiterun is an Imperial but when I'm near a town with Stormcloaks, they try to kill me too. And if a guard would try to send me to jail now, I would actually go there with no fighting back. But there is no one who's talking to me, only attacking.

What should I do? I can't finish my quests when everyone's attacking me.


texts:
It's my first Civ6 game. I founded a religion early, in my capital. No one has another yet, but two other civs are accumulating points for a Great Prophet, one of them due in about 20 turns. I have Stonehenge, so no one else will surprise me with that.

I just bought my first missionary, and am unsure what to do with them. A few dilemmas:

Near or far? Should I spread the religion to a couple cities I just founded, that will probably get it anyway, to speed things up? Or should I send the missionary far away, to create a new beacon of truth?

Spread or concentrate? Use one charge in each city, or all three in one city?
Green fields or fierce competition? If using a far strategy, do I seed the capital of the competing Civs who are about to get religion, to try to crowd it out before it spreads, or the other Civs, to try to spread there while having no competition and stay clear of Inquisitors in the near term?
Big or small? Should I target small towns, which will be converted when having 51% followers (right?), or huge cities, where it will spread more rapidly in the in-town population (will it really?)

Any advice?

If relevant, it's the Prince difficulty. I'm used to playing Civ5 without the G&K expansion, that is, without religion, so all this mechanic is new to me.

texts: Pokémon Let's Go: What is the increased capture rate after capturing x amount of a certain Pokémon?

texts:
When I was chaining Caterpie the other day I noticed that the capture circle changed from yellow to green with a regular Pokéball. I was in a chain, but it was at an awkward number that wasn't close to a multiple of 10, and I didn't know if I did something special. Later I realized that I had hit 50 captures for Caterpie, and later on I tried it out with Geodude as well - the circle went from yellow to green with a Pokéball (though I checked after 100 captures this time).

My question comes in two parts.

First, assuming that there is a bonus for capturing x amount of a certain species, is it linear (as in every Pokémon captured grants a very small boost) or is it by interval (50, 100, 150, ...)?

Second, what are the actual numbers? Somewhere on a forum I read something about being able to get Chansey down to a green circle with a Pokéball, so assuming that this capture bonus exists, I'd like to know the hard numbers.

Thank you.

texts: Minecraft Skyblock Nether mobs spawning slowly/low cap

texts:
I'm playing Skyblock v4.02 from here: https://www.planetminecraft.com/project/skyblock-4/
I have a basic nether fortress farm that just has one-block-wide spawning rooms where I can hit the mobs' feet. However, mob spawning is super slow in the nether, compared to the overworld. It takes several minutes to get ~15 mobs, and it never seems to go above that amount. My view distance is set to 16, and I don't think I have any rules issues as I am getting spawns, just super slowly.

Does anyone know why my nether mobs are spawning so slowly? Being a skyblock world, there is no other land in render distance so it's not an issue of mobs spawning elsewhere.

texts:
I am on my way to the final boss of the entire game. (faceless)

I took the boat, of which there is no return.

But now I'm starving to death!

I cannot rest, as I've no food; I cannot cure anything as I'm feeble minded.
And I cannot travel back to any inn for more food... What do I do? It's a very long time since I did a proper save as opposed to auto/quick save.

Without my mage, I cannot defend my team or heal. And my people are 70% weaker. I can still hit a lot on the boss, but I have to get 4 fragments, and once someone dies, it's over. I have the resurrection in my party, which I have used, but she's on cool down.
I have killed my mage off to resurrect, to get rid of feeble mind, then dispel all magic. But without food, they become weak the next move... So I'm still weakened with no way to rest between any encounter.

It would be fun to do the final boss, but I cannot in my weakened form, for all my trying.

Does anyone know how to acquire food? Trainer/cheat/in-game? Or any other combos I can do to fix it?

texts: Reconnect wireless XBox 360 controller to PC after idle timeout

texts:
Sometimes, especially during flight sims, I leave the 360 controller alone for long enough that it disconnects.  If I attempt to immediately reconnect by turning the controller back on with the center (Guide?) button, the controller's lights indicate that it has reconnected, but the computer won't register any inputs from it.

Is there a recommended way to reconnect after the idle timeout?

Things I've tried already:

Disconnecting and reconnecting the receiver from the computer allows the controller to connect, though it often reconnects as player 2, then 3, then 4...then 1 again, and that seems to matter for how the computer enumerates it.  Once it's back to player 1, all my software except for Teamspeak will recognize it as the same controller.  The push-to-talk in  Teamspeak has to be rebound.
Waiting for "a long time" (i.e. putting the controller down after a play session and then using it the next session) allows it to reconnect normally (i.e. I don't need to rebind anything, and it reconnects as player 1) so it seems like there's a second idle timer in play, but I don't know how long it is.

I own a PS3super slim. I was updating my GTA 5 and while doing so the PS3 was accidentally shut down. This happened while the screen displayed update no. 14/20 (as in 6 more updates were pending).

Now as it happens with other games, the option to update your game should come as soon as the game is launched, and yet nothing of the sort happens when I launch my GTA 5. When I access online it says

  Success, a new content was downloaded and installed. Please return to Gta 5.

And with this, it takes me back to offline mode. Please guide with proper steps about what I should do.

texts: What specific Bonus/Loyalty powers are available?

texts:
I know that the concept of Bonus Powers earned from loyal squadmates to enhance Shepards abilities has been retained. But what I can't find any information on is what specific powers are availiable.

I'm trying to plan out my build for my Vanguard at the moment, and I'd really like to know if certain abilities, such as Carnage or Reave will be available to me, so that I can figure out which powers I'll select to eventually complement it.


texts: Can you have the same game on multiple SD cards for Nintendo 2DS?

texts:
A common problem for Nintendo 2/3DS games is that they offer just one save game. I'm looking at you, Pokemon. If you want to start a new game, you need to erase all progress of the last one. This creates a problem if there is just one copy of a game, but several people who would like to play it.

If the game is on a cartridge, you're out of luck. But what about if you bought it on eShop and installed on an SD card? Can you take 2 SD cards (cheap these days), download the game on each of them (using the same console) and effectively get 2 save slots? Whoever wants to play just pops in their own SD card and continues where they left off?

Reading other answers here and on the Internet seems to suggest that this is possible, but I couldn't find any outright confirmation. Can anyone confirm if this works?

If it matters, my particular console is the New 2DS XL.

Does anyone have specific details on what the bonus means next to a couple of the acts in adventure mode?
Is there any benefit to completing all of the bounties in all of the acts in a single game in adventure mode? Or should you just do the bonus acts and recreate?

texts: Does overclocking the usb polling rate for a mouse have any side effects?

texts:
I have a 125mhz simple Microsoft mouse and have been using it overclocked at 500mhz. However I seem to face a little mouse lag.

Is this possible? Can overclocking mice cause lag problems?


texts: Do two Minecraft blocks connected diagonally form an effective wall?

texts:
In Minecraft, if you place two blocks touching diagonally, does that form a real wall/barrier?

Put another way, is there anything (water, lava sparks, skeleton arrows, monster spawning, etc) that can get through a diagonal joint like that?

Example house:

 XXX  <-- can anything get through the diagonal gaps in the corners?
X   X          or do I need to fill in the corner pieces?
X   X


texts:
After you unlock the Focus ability, you can apparently gain levels and things in it like your other abilities. I know that there are various things unlocked as you level, but I am not entirely sure how to level it. (It took me longer than I want to admit to to even figure out how to use it).

Does it work like Warframes and weapons, where it just levels based on XP gotten by you and/or your squadmates? Or do I have to do something special with it (especially when it comes to the things it unlocks)?

So we know what it is, but in game next to your HP you get a little coloured skull which shows you have some 'downed penalty' points.

Does anyone know what the colours mean? Or how to know how many points you have? So far I've seen a white icon and a dark orange one.

I'm doing the Tuchanka: Bomb mission and I seem to have arrived at the location of the bomb. However... the waypoint for it is floating in the air above Shepard's head and there doesn't seem to be any bomb there.

This is what it looks like from a few paces away:

I've searched the immediate vicinity, but I don't see anything else to interact with here. What can I do?

texts: Is there a way to use an iPhone as bluetooth headphones for a PS3?

texts:
The Sony Playstation 3 provides support for a Bluetooth headset so you can sit and relax on your sofa without having wires from the TV, etc.

The iPhone smart phone is Bluetooth-enabled.

Is there an app, or some other method available to allow the iPhone to act like a Bluetooth headset, thereby transmitting the sounds from the game to the iPhone (and then through the iPhone headphones into my ears)?

I found this forum thread (http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/32319-39-mobile-phone-headset) from 2004 saying "No", but no real evidence as to why; plus it's a bit old now and not related to PS3. Is the answer really no?  If so, why?


texts: How short can a minecart booster be and still be effective?

texts:
In alpha and beta versions of Minecraft (prior to Minecraft Beta 1.6), 'Minecart Boosting' takes advantage of the minecart's physics when next to another cart to propel itself forward.

How many vertical blocks can a cart climb per square of booster track, assuming the cart goes straight up after leaving the booster area?

What's the minimum length required to go all the way from bedrock to cloud level?
