texts: What is the Quest ID for "Liberation of Skyrim: Liberate Haafingar"?

texts:
I've battled at the fort, but when I attempt to speak to Galmar Stone-Fist (to whom the quest directs me), he has no conversation options whatsoever.

I also attempted to speak to Ulfric, but the same thing occurs.

I think this question is glitched, and that the only way I can continue would be to use the console to advance. However, I can't find the ID on UESP.net as the page for the Haafingar portion still hasn't been created. I have no idea how to find the ID, either.

What is the ID for this quest, or how can I find it out myself?


texts: What is considered a continent? - eg for Indonesia's Spice Islanders bonus

texts:
Gajah Mada (Indonesia) gets the Spice Islanders bonus.

  The first 3 cities founded on continents other than where Indonesia
  started each provide 2 luxury resources (and can never be razed).

What is considered a different continent for these purposes?

My guess would be it has to be separated by ocean, but it could be that just a coastal sea separating landmasses is enough.


texts: Account does not exist when logging into Pokemon Go

texts: I tried logging into Pokemon Go after not using my account for a few months, but I found myself unable to login - apparently my email address does not exist!

texts: Pokemon GO More XP Depending On Which Evolution Stage

texts:
My question is do you get more XP in Pokemon GO for evolving a Pokemon (that is able to evolve 2 times) from their middle stage to their final stage than you do for evolving them from their first stage to their second stage?  I would inherently think so because to evolve a Pokemon from their second stage to their final stage requires more candy than from evolving them from their first stage to their second stage.

Here is an example with Pidgey:
Would you get more XP from evolving Pidgey -> Pidgeotto or Pidgeotto -> Pidgeot?
Or does Pokemon GO just give the user a flat amount of XP for evolving a Pokemon?

Thank you!


texts: Temple Run 2 Won't Give Me Credit for Today's Daily Challenge

texts: I am on day 250 for consecutive daily challenges.  Today's is Run 750M in One Run, Without Coins.  I've completed it 4 or 5 times, but it never will give me the chest, the reward, or credit for completing the challenge.  Of these, I want the credit most in order to keep my streak alive.  I've even tried to run it on a different map.  Even tried running 1000M with no coins and then dying shortly after with no coins.  Any ideas?


texts:
Can I change the names of The Chosen in my game?

On every playthrough, each Chosen is given a randomly-generated name and title, similarly to Uruks in Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor.

I do not care for the randomly generated names I have gotten, and would like to change them to something funny or memetic for the sake of adding comedy to my stream of the game.  Is it possible to alter my save file so that I can manually customize the names in my current playthrough?

texts:
I just bought a Powersaves Pro system four days ago, with no problems, except with one game. Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

This game was the one I was actually most excited to use. Whenever I tried using the 999,999,999 bells code it always stopped in the second loading section "Uploading Save" about a quarter into it. This also happened with the other codes.

Although, I tried getting codes for other games and it worked perfectly. (Mario Kart 7, Pokèmon Omega Ruby)

I've taken down my firewall, restarted my computer, downloaded the program again, checked my Internet, (which was at 3 bars) checked the servers, (which were all running) tried a different Animal Crossing: New Leaf cartridge, all without any luck. I've looked into the problem on the Internet and many people have similar problems with just this one game, though I haven't found any solutions yet.

Is anyone else having this same problem, and is there any possible ways of fixing this?


texts: How can I stop civilizations dying out and fortress abandonment?

texts:
When generating worlds that are old (1k-10k years), I have a very hard time stopping civilizations dying out and every fortress I visit in Adventurer mode is abandoned.

What aspects of world generation effect fortress abandonment and creation? Can you have an old world without many abandoned fortresses, or are they just abandoned as time progresses.

What greatly effects civilizations dying out? How can I generate an old world that has a balanced amount of beasts to civilizations? (i.e. not end up without any beasts nor without any people)

Does indirect killing like this affect non-lethal runs? Specifically actions you take that cause people to get killed by someone else.

texts: Players outside of playable map in Rush game mode - exploit or legit?

texts:
I was playing Rush on Operation Firestorm as the defending team (Russians) and the opposing team was able to sit in the hills to the right of their spawn point and snipe.  When I tried to rush that section of the map I was getting the warning message that I need to return to the map.

Update Another tactic I see players using is to camp within this dedicated zone and spam mortars.

Is this legitimate or is this an exploit?  It was quite annoying and gives the opposite team an unfair advantage.

I was playing on the Xbox 360.


texts: What happened to all the Higgledies in Ding Dong Dell?

texts:
While running through Ding Dong Dell during chapter 8, I noticed many Higgledies scattered all around the city, mostly in places I couldn't reach. For example: (Taken from some online tutorial, not my own)

However, at some point in chapter 9 while in Ding Dong Dell again, I realized all of the Higgledies are gone! Not a single Higgledy remains in the whole big city. Took screenshot in the same place as the above screenshot, and as you see, nothing where those two cuties were dancing:

What happened to all the Higgledies in Ding Dong Dell between chapters 8 and 9? Is it explained somewhere? If some weird glitch, any patch to fix it?

Note it's specific to Ding Dong Dell, not world-wide. Checked Auntie Martha's Cottage and they're all still there, for example.

Still the same even after end game.

texts: What is the best way to create growth and cashflow in Kairosoft's Venture Towns?

texts:
This game is not very rewarding because it is seemingly impossible to grow your town in any way because it is SO difficult to get the cash to do so. How do you grow in this game? You never have enough money, keeping your cashflow in the positive is extremely difficult and I don't understand how to play this game so that I am not cash starved.

It costs LOTS money to build and maintain an office for your citizens to work at, then you have I place businesses literally NEXT to it to discover new jobs. That makes the space very limited around these towers, so your placement is important to maximize job discovery, but there doesn't seem to be any successful strategy to business placement, even with combos double stacked it doesn't help profitability much. Moreover, there is pressure to bulldoze existing buildings, so you can use that spot for a new business in order to discover jobs.

When you find jobs it costs money to retrain EACH your citizens to the new jobs, one at a time. Then, you need stacks of cash and resources to research the new buildings in the game. Then, you have to build them, more cost. Then, they probably fail, so you have to bullzode and try something else, more cash. And you have to research new building styles to replace the old ones. More cash. And expenses each month. More cash....

I can't figure this title out, it's either broken or I just don't get it. How do you build to succeed in this game (to have enough money to afford successful growing, while researching all my available options and having the cash to build them afterwards).

But in my case I have only one game that I want to prevent from updating, basically to prevent issues with a multi-player game in which other platforms can't play without updating and updates for those platforms isn't always available right away when it is for the XBox.
All other games I want to keep on auto-update, because to not do so will interfere with other users of the XBox not having the updates they expect automatically.

texts: Is there a difference between the movement controls in Okami and Okami HD?

texts:
So I have recently downloaded Okami HD, and I have noticed that the directional input seems to be a bit clunkier than in the original. I.e. I can only travel in 45 degree directions.

I have come up with an alternative in the meantime, (rotating the camera to allow for smoother cornering). The only problem is that if I turn too sharply too suddenly, it ruins my sprint. (This is not new, I have tested the original and the same thing happens).

I should also note I am not using a standard PS3 controller, but I have not had this issue with other games (Tested with Gran Turismo 5, Infamous 2, Crash Bandicoot series, Spyro series).

texts: How to get steam to recognise previous files when my HDD does not match the space requirements

texts:
So I installed GTA V the other day, but for some reason when it was done, it still came up with "Install" instead of "Play" so I tried to reinstall but my HDD was too full.

I went to the directory it installed under and all the files seem to be there, but obviously since my HDD is too full I cant validate the game. So far I've tried re-adding the steam directory and restarting steam, didn't work. I tried steam://validate/271590 in run, didn't work.

So is there a way I can verify the game without having to delete and reinstall the game (it took 2 whole days to complete so that's last resort for me)

P.S. Just incase you need to know i have 2 steam directories E:/Steam and D:/Steam GTA V is installed under D:/Steam.

How do I progress from here? Or am I taking the wrong approach for this level?

95 aim
5 hack
50 will

Is there a way to get all the current spell IDs using Blizzard's WoW API?

I would like to know the exact IDs because there are spells that might have IDs as low as 3 and up to 8056, while the limit of requests to do is around 3k for anonymous calls and 9k for registered applications (and this shuts down the idea of just trying to get the IDs in an 'for' expression).

Having the exact IDs of the spells, I can safely use Blizzard's API without worrying much about those limits.

texts: How do I create an RS-NOR latch with a toggle input in addition to the standard "On" and "Off" buttons? [BEDROCK EDITION]

texts:
Upon request from moderators/experts, this question has been split into two questions, one for each of the main editions of Minecraft. If you have an answer for Java Edition, please post it here.

I am creating a redstone contraption that is based off an RS-NOR latch and a T-flip-flop at once.
The contraption needs to have three pulse-based inputs and one output.
Here are the inputs and their descriptions of what they should do:

"On" button: Turn the output on, or keep it on if it is already on.
"Off" button: Turn the output off, or keep it off if it is already off.
"Toggle" button: Toggle the state of the output, no matter what state it was in before.

Many online tutorials provide a solution for an RS-NOR latch or a T-Flip-Flop alone, but not this combination of them.
What is the most compact way to construct a redstone contraption like this?
Please include images with your solution.

texts: How does the Mutalisk's Glaive Bounce calculate damage?

texts:
With zero upgrades and when attacking a unit with no armor, a Single mutalisk attack does:

9 Damage (first target)
3 Damage (second target)
1 Damage (third target)

What is less clear is what happens when armor and attack upgrades are researched? Does the damage expand to:

10         or           10
4          or           3.33
2          or           1.11

With 1 armor, how is the bounce damage reduced?

8         or        8        or        8
2         or        2.67     or        2.67
0         or        0.89     or        0.5

No other unit deals with fractional damage -- do Mutalisks do fractional damage, or does it get rounded down? Can Mutalisks do 0 damage with their bounce, or is there a minimum damage they will do with each attack?


texts: Under which bridges do I have to fly to get the "Under the Radar" achievement in GTA4?


texts:
All the outfitted parts in Elite: Dangerous have a level and a class, broadly describing their performance.

So you have size 1 (small), 2 (medium) and so on for size ratings and A, B, C etc for class ratings (A being best but super expensive). Size counts more than class, so a 2-anything will be better than a 1 anything, and an A2 will be better than a B2.

Where can I find high class weapons?

I'm currently in an Eagle with 3 small mounts - shouldn't I be able to mount 3 A1 guns eventually (when I can afford them)? The problem is that (even in high tech systems) I haven't seen any size 1 guns better rated than F.

In particular is like to find gimballed size one guns better than a G rating.

After approaching the Isle of Mists (I won't say anything about that to prevent spoiler) the most secondary quests are lost, but some remain. There are some interesting DLCs too, which I might like to complete after game ends. There are 3 endings for Ciri, one of them makes me wonder if Geralt will still be able to roam the world and play purchased DLCs.

Do you have to create a new save and start over - or you can just continue playing the left story? I have already almost finished the game in my old save, but it corrupted just before being able to finish the game.

texts: If a player gets caught trespassing using the disguise module, or if they get caught stealing something, they can try a skill check that gets harder every time the player gets caught. Can this skill check eventually require a skill of over 100 for successful completion? Because you can get to 100 skill at level 8 or so if you rush it, and it feels like that might break such checks if they're capped at 100.


texts:
By all accounts, Legendary weapons are of equal power to Ascended (Pink) weapons, and so do not confer a statistical advantage over their less impressive Ascended companions, but their Legendary status brings other perks, like crazy visual effects, the ability to change their stats combinations, and more ephemeral bonuses like in-game prestige.

In the beta, there was some indication that these legendary weapons required a great deal of crafting to complete, at a great investment of time and materials. I've also heard that the way legendaries are obtained has changed between the betas and release.

So what's the skinny? How can one earn a legendary weapon for themselves?


texts: Force a repair of Star Wars: The Old Republic

texts:
I successfully downloaded/installed Star Wars: The Old Republic (SW-TOR) and ran it. But, I uninstalled it to try to fix something else. Before I uninstalled it, I made a backup of most of the files in another directory.

Within a day (i.e. no additional release patch between first and second installs), I decided to re-install it with the web installer again. I restored the files I had to the directory to which I installed it, and then ran the client.

It appears that I didn't back up a few essential files because the launcher wants to re-download everything. Unfortunately, I can't select the "Repair" option in the Launcher Settings, either, because it doesn't acknowledge that I've completed a patch download.

Mainly, I want to know how to download only the files I would need.

I would think that the Launcher would detect that I have all of the files for the Assets, Movies, and swtor directories, which constitute over 99% of all of the data I need. But, it doesn't detect this, which leads me to believe that a "Repair" would fix this, except I can't run it.

If indeed I have no other option outside of a Repair, how to I trick the Launcher to enable the Repair option?

FixLauncher.exe only fixes the Launcher, but not the full repair.


texts: What could have caused this wave of 62 immigrant dwarves?

I started playing the latest version of Dwarf Fortress yesterday. The first two migration waves carried two and four dwarves respectively. Then suddenly, when the third wave arrived, my fortress was flooded by immigrants to a total of 75 dwarves. I've never seen such a big immigration before. Was there a recent change in how immigration works? What could have caused this?

The only things I've done between the waves is fairly normal stuff: digging straight downwards without finding anything, mining out some hematite, butcher some animals, trade small amounts with the caravan, and dig a lava moat out of the volcano.

texts: Super Mario Run parent/child DLC sharing?

texts:
I just bought the level pack in Super Mario Run on iPad for my kid. He's logged on to his own Nintendo Network Id, which is a child account registered under my own NNID.
I'd like to play this game myself as well (preferably on my phone, as soon as it comes out on Android) using my own NNID. Will I have to buy the game again under my own Nintendo Network Id?

I've seen other questions about sharing DLC between devices but they either assume you're using the same NNID or the same Apple id.

I've been wanting to play some old games using PCSX2 (PS2 Emulator) but every time I load the games up, I get massive frame drops. I get around 13 frames in game, but cut scenes I get full frames (30-60).

I've researched and tested a few things but nothing has worked so far. Does anyone know what could cause this?

texts: What strategy should I use to get "Insane Bolt"?

texts:
There is an achievement called "Insane Bolt" that requires to beat the game with Bacteria in less than 365 days. I want to beat it on Brutal.
My strategy proved to be close to the goal (around 400 days), but not quite reaching the goal.
My strategy was of starting in India, evolving until I reached Skin Lesions, then evolving Water 1 and 2, Drug Resistance, Air 1 and 2 and Extreme Bioaerosol, Bird 1 and 2, etc. It proved to be a very fast-paced strategy, but hasn't yet reach its goal.
What strategy should I use to beat the game with Bacteria on Brutal, without pre-modifying genetic code or using cheats?


texts: What runes are used with Shen for Tanking?

texts:
I recently started playing Shen and I seem to be pretty decent with him.

I know everything is situation based but I am looking for a good set of Tanking runes and a good early game item set.

So far for I have 9 marks for HP, 9 seals for armour, 9 Glyphs for magic resist as my runes. I am wondering what Quiescence's to buy to fit with this set.


texts:
I have a fair few crafting item (potions, decotions, bombs, and items) that have some missing components. I know that smiths can break down some components into others.

For example, to craft a sword I need three monster eyes which I do not have.  I do have seven Nekker eyes which a smith can break down into seven (or as many as I like) monster eyes.

What I want to know is if there is a way to find out if I can get the missing components I need from the components I have?  I could write all the ones I need, then trawl through the list of breaking component down but that seem a little tedious.

Am I missing something?

texts: Flat AD/AP over Penetration AD/AP during the laning phase

texts:
A very famous French streamer, and former LoL pro (EC Skyyart) always says in its streams that going for penetration items (AD/AP depending on your champ obviously) when your opponent has low armor/MR is always more worth it than going flat AD/AP. At least in early game (during the laning phase) in order to deal damage close to the "true damage".

I wonder if that is really the case when computing some calculation and reflecting over the theory. Please keep in mind that I speak about the laning phase and don't include the runes in the question.

Thanks.

What would happen to the other 2 Refining Tickets received, as only 10 can be saved? Are they lost forever or do they get temporarily stored until the user can receive them.

This also applies to a 5th or 6th day of login bonus tickets being received. Basically anything over the max of 10.

texts:
Okay, so I got to Alfthand and made my way through the glacial ruins to Alfthand Cathedral. There's a lift inside the Cathedral itself which takes you back up to the surface of Alfthand. I did this, but I can't get the gate to open - there's no action on the gate at all to allow me to do this. I know you're supposed to be able to do this because I've done it on previous playthroughs.

I thought there may be a bug with this particular gate, so I went back down to the Cathedral then made my way into the Blackreach and over to the Great Lift at Alfthand, and here it's the same - no action on the gate, so I cannot open it in order to come back down later on.

I don't fancy trekking through Alfthand every time I want to get to the Blackreach from now on.

Which NPCs are considered hostiles, and which are considered civilians? Is there any easy way to know if an NPC is considered a hostile or a civilian? Also, does killing a civilian add more to chaos, compared to killing a hostile?

Instances where it is unclear whether an NPC is a hostile or a civilian:

Thugs at the Distillery, in the House of Pleasure mission

   (where they don't attack unless provoked)

Lord Shaw at the Lady Boyle's Last Party mission

   He will fight you in a duel, if you do an optional mission objective.

The Scavenger at the Royal Physican mission
Granny Rags at the Flooded District mission

   She'll fight you if you choose to do an optional mission objective.

Samuel

texts: How can I find the ancient device with less searching?

texts:
I have found the ancient device maybe 7 times and seen 5 of the outcomes. To see all 10 for the Wheel of Misfortune achievement and to find all the locations for the Nooks and Crannies achievement, you need to find this thing quite often. I've spent hours of farming Desolate Sands and it barely seems to show up.

How can I speed up my runs so that I'm not wasting time wandering the Desolate Sands?

I've seen it appear at the north and south ends of Desolate Sands. Any information is useful if it saves running around this place. Does it appear on the sides or can I skip searching these?

If I see certain things, does it mean I can stop searching that side of the center gap in the middle of the Desolate Sands? It seems like the large spiral location takes the place of the Ancient Device as I've not seen them on the same side of the gap. I've also never seen it near the 3 Mysterious Jars that summon Pazuzu so it's possible this takes the place of the ancient device as well. I've also seen a location with a booby-trapped chest in the middle of a large circle and an area with a bunch of skull-shaped spawn closets, but I've definitely seen them near the Ancient Device. Anything that once I see it says: Stop searching here and move on would be very helpful.

Is there a rule like "there can only be 1 random dungeon in this area", meaning that if I am trying for one of the device's dungeons and I see Vile Cavern or Shaitan The Broodmother (who's death opens up Cave of Burrowing Horror), I should just re-instance and try again? Any rules that can end a search early would also be very useful.

Is there some sort of temporal component that determines when it will appear? Does it appear more during certain times of day? On/close to the hour? During certain moon phases? Anything that can tell me when I should be searching would also be very helpful.

Does the Spike Grenades perk still trigger if the grenade strikes a non-enemy before it detonates?

texts:
Near the end of Final Fantasy X it is revealed that:

   Lord Zaon was the first final Aeon forged by the bond between him and Lady Yunalesca. The old man in Zanarkand says roughly: "The final Aeon can no longer be summoned. [Zaon]'s soul is gone."

 I assume, that for some time summoners could use the Aeon produced by Lord Zaons fayth to fight Sin, but no longer, which is the reason that summoners must sacrifice one of their guardians to aquire their own final Aeon.

 It is also said, that this final Aeon, if it defeats Sin, becomes Sin itself. So if all of that is true, then how could a final Aeon be used multiple times? If it defeats Sin it disappears.
 But apparently Lady Yunalesca, who was the first to defeat Sin, used a final Aeon other summoners were also able to use for some time, afterwards.

Is that poor word choice and

   Lord Zaons Aeon was also only used this one time

or is that an inconsistency in the rules?

texts: Changes (to controls, video settings, audio, etc) not saving when I close Minecraft

texts:
I've recently noticed that whenever I close my game, any changes I made during the time I was playing do not save. I do not know about vanilla worlds since I play servers only.
I noticed a while back that whenever I tried to activate flame particles, as soon as I close the game they'd become deactivated again. This goes for texture packs too, when I'd deactivate a Hypixel texture pack it would seemingly reenable reenable when I opened the game again.
My friend recently started a 1.16.5 SMP. As a Hypixel player I use 1.8.9 optifine but I want to have more fun so I switched (or at least tried to) to unmodded, no optifine 1.16.5, but it keeps resetting the controls, the video settings, even the "Do not show again" on the third party server warning. For some reason though, my 1.8.9 controls carry over to 1.16.5, even though they didn't carry over when I was still playing 1.14 vanilla (but that was more than a year ago).
I do not have java installed anymore to save space, would that be a problem?
Help is appreciated, thanks!

On my 1st and 2nd playthrough i'm stuck on this puzzle and i can't stop but imagine there's a room full of treasure chests on the other side.

The puzzle is in the Kingdom of the Dead, starting on the right side when you cross the bridge when you come from the Tree of Death. When you follow the path with some wallruns etc. you come to this point:

I can use my deathgrip 3 times to make it to the beam in the middle but then my path is blocked by Corruption. I've tried to grab some of the bombs (even tried jumping down to get a bomb during my fall, but to no avail) to clear the path, but with no success...

texts: What does +XP refer to in tech descriptions of Endless Space? For instance, in "Hardened Framing", its description is given as: "+6 ship XP on building on star system".

I am asking because the font is small enough on my system that the description might be "+6 ship HP on building on star system", and for close quarter slug fests at the start of the game, I could use all the edges I can find.

texts: What is maximum-DPS level 80 PvE Shadow Priest spell priority as of patch 4.0.1?

texts:
That was then

Prior to the 4.0.1 patch, I would start boss fights like so:

Vampiric Touch
Devouring Plague
Mind Blast
Mind Flay
Shadow Word: Pain

This would "charge up" stacks of buffs for my Shadow Word: Pain to have maximum damage output for the rest of the fight (Shadow Word: Pain stays up whenever you cast Mind Flay).

Assuming the boss was a boring Sit There And Shoot At It fight, the rest of the fight involved spell priorities as follows:

Keep up Vampiric Touch
Keep up Devouring Plague
Mind Blast when it's available
Mind Flay for filler

This is now

With the 4.0.1 patch, all of this appears to have totally changed.  I no longer seem to have to "charge up" my Shadow Word: Pain buff stacks, and new Shadow Orbs are flying all over the place.  It's craziness!

How do I make most effective use of these new talents and mechanics?

how to identify targets (whose death will be of value to me) that can be  easily killed
how to increase plot power if swaying via gifts is not enough

texts:
In the latest EVE Online expansion - Odyssey - the system jump "loading bar" has been replaced with a nice animation which hides the loading bar while you're travelling between systems. However, as a side effect of hiding the loading bar, if you're unable to make the jump for whatever reason (I just got stuck with a traffic control message stating my jump request would be authorised in 160 seconds), you're essentially left on the jump animation.

Once the counter has finished counting down, you can get out of the animation by selecting "jump" again but before this point you're stuck in the jump animation with no system overview and no obvious way to get out of the animation.

Can we turn off the new jump animation?

As a bonus question; where is your ship during the animation? As stated, all of the objects from the system overview menu disappear so it's acting like you're in limbo, but the message itself and the action (or lack of action) is very similar to when Jita is locked down (due to too many people in the system) - is your ship actually sat next the gate?

texts: Minecraft: Special Characters in Target Selector Arguments

texts:
I'm creating a system so when a player dies, an XPOrb is dropped at that location with a special name then the player can choose to teleport to that named XPOrb if they choose.

This system is already working, but I would like to improve it. Right now the name of that XPOrb is "bob" but I would like to make it something better like a face such as: (ಥ﹏ಥ)

And I'm able to spawn an entity with that custom name, but I'm not able to teleport to it using:

@e[name=(ಥ﹏ಥ)]

Because Minecraft recognizes some of the characters as invalid they way that I have entered them. I would greatly prefer having this face instead of text for the XPOrb, so it would be a big help if someone knew how to format this properly.

The following commands are the entire list of commands for my system:

/scoreboard objectives add deaths deathCount

/testfor @a[score_deaths_min=1]

/execute @a[score_deaths_min=1] ~ ~ ~ /summon XPOrb ~0 ~0 ~0 {CustomName:bob,CustomNameVisible:1}

/scoreboard players set @a[score_deaths_min=1] deaths 0

Now if the player chooses to teleport to that orb the command is:

/execute @e[name=bob] ~ ~ ~ /tp @p @e[name=bob]

How would I go about doing this?


texts: Joycons buzzing in Portal Knights on Nintendo Switch

texts:
I recently started Portal Knights on the Nintendo Switch and I noticed that when I use my "Stone Pickaxe" on things, both joycons vibrate loudly, like a buzzing noise.

Is this normal? I tried two sets of joycons and it does happen on both. For an action that is so common, I worry that it'll ultimately ruin the motors in the joycons.

texts: How can I predict a surprise radroach infestation?

texts:
Occasionally, even though I haven't rushed any rooms at all, Radroach infestations will come up by surprise from rooms such as the Storage Room. This often seems to come up without any warning and leaves me having to use up some Stimpaks to heal my dwellers.

Is there any way to predict when this will happen to prepare immediately?

texts:
I want to upgrade an island's worth of level 1 houses, and the best way I figure is to just destroy everything and let it rezone to my best houses (lvl4 I believe).

My question is then, how do I easily destroy many houses? The only way I figured out to destroy a house is to dig under it then fill the ground, but it's messy because right clicking digs next to the house, then I have to drag towards it multiple times to really destroy it.

Alternatively, is there a better way to upgrade?

Edit: another downside to my way so far is that since I can only destroy one house at a time, and slowly (takes time to drag earth around like that), the guys that vacate the house start construction right away, never giving me time to increase the zone size. I feel I must be missing something here.


texts: When using my PS3 controller as a gamepad, how can I turn it off properly?

texts:
I've been using my PS3 controller as a gamepad quite a bit recently. I'm using MotioninJoy's DS3 tool, with the controller connected with a USB cable to the desktop. Everything is working great, except that each time I close my computer or disconnect the controller it "panics" and turns on my PS3, at which point I have to go and close it.

Is there any way to properly close the controller before closing my computer so that it doesn't do that, or perhaps make it forget about the PS3 so that it doesn't turn it on once it starts panicking?

texts: What is this heart in the crimson biome?

texts: I found this heart while exploring the crimson biome - what is it?


texts:
When you start out in Gnomoria, there are no enemies. When Summer hits your country, then you also get some very violent holiday guests, aka Goblins and other creatures.

My problem is, that I really have issues surviving them.

I have a wall around my settlement by Summer and I have 2 Guards. One wears full Copper Armor, which you start out with and the other one has no Armor and the Perk "Way of the Gnome". There is mostly no way that I have armor production going before Summer hits.

However, enemy activity is mostly so heavy that my only 2 trained soldiers will either die or have to go to the hospital for a long time with multiple broken limbs, which results in the other gnomes being killed.

So how do you actually survive your first summer? Are there some tricks I did not think of?


texts: How can I judge hardware against minimum and recommended specs?

texts:
While investigating graphics card benchmarks for a new PC, I noticed that some of the games I've been playing on my current laptop list minimum specificaitons on Steam that are considerably higher than its hardware.

It's packing an old Nvidia 635M graphics card, which has a 3D Mark score of 1070. Yet I've been able to play Xcom2, which lists a minimum requirement of a GTX 460 (a 3D Mark score of 3530, fully 3 times higher than my current card). And more recently it's run Battlefleet Gothic, which lists a minimum requirement of a GTX 560 (a 3D Mark score of 3939).

At the other end of the scale, the GTX 770 is a fairly common sight in the "recommended" specs of a lot of recent AAA games. That's got a 3D Mark score of 11190. Yet the replacement machine I've just ordered has a 970M card with a 3D Mark score of 10000 and comparison videos would suggest it's pretty much on a par with the 770 in spite of the lower score.

What's going on here, especially in terms of my old rig being able to run these modern games? Is there a lot more to graphics card performance than benchmark scores? I'm aware that minimum and recommended specs are at the whim of the developer and aren't held to any specific standard, but if there's so much variation in performance, how can people realistically judge what I can and can't run before buying?

The only 2-handed weapons I have seen so far have been at most only a point or two higher in damage than a 1-handed weapon.

texts: So I have my first character, a level 15 hunter and I have only got around 3 engrams over the whole game experience.

texts:
Going to the canteen to eat before embarking on a quest is standard procedure, and different combinations of ingredients give you different buffs and skills. Most of them are self-explanatory and usually buff yourself in some way, but there's one that the game doesn't explain very well: Felyne Weakener.

The ingame description is:

  Increases the likelihood of large monsters encountered in Quests being weak.

But it doesn't go into any further detail.

What does "weak" mean in this context? What is the "increased likelihood"? If multiple players activate Felyne Weakener, does it increase the chance further?


texts: Why do I have bad performance with the Geforce 550M when running on suggested graphics settings for games?

texts:
Many games like Skyrim or Saints Row 3 have performance detection included. Whenever I run it, the suggested graphics settings are "Ultra", "Maximum", etc., but when running the game on that settings, it lags like hell and is unplayable. Even medium graphics settings are often lagging.

Also, pages like Can you run it? are showing me I can play Metro 2033 on Maximum settings, but even minimum settings (everything disabled or lowest level) are lagging.

My graphics card is a nVidia GeForce 550M.

I've tried re-installing Windows from scratch, updating my drivers again and again but nothing.

Can you help me or at least tell me why performance detected settings and actual performance differ so much?

texts: Why does my minecraft server completely crash my internet?

texts:
So I run a server for my and my friends to play on. It worked fine until a couple of weeks ago (specifically after I factory reset my pc, dunno if that helps.) where it just starts completely crashing my internet.
It sort of fixes after restarting the modem and starting up the router again, but it consistently crashes after at least one hour of being up. Sometimes I can run it for 8 hours, but then it crashes. Sometimes I can run it for 2 hours, and it crashes. I don't get any errors, and the only way I know it actually crashes is (if I'm playing Minecraft) all of my friends disconnect and I can't speak on discord anymore. Otherwise, if I'm not playing, the internet would just stop working.
It's gotten quite annoying and I really don't know how to fix it, and I haven't gotten any errors. My friend suggested Wireshark to see if I'm getting any IP logs, but nothing came up.


texts: Multiple commands in a given sign doesn't execute correctly...?

texts:
Well, as you probably know, ArmorStand's with CustomName's are used to create holograms. I am trying to make a one command sign generator that creates a multiline hologram, multiple ArmorStand's under each other. The generator nearly works, as it returns a result. The command is quite long, so you can go read it on Pastebin by clicking here. The problem is that the ArmorStand's above the lowest one doesn't teleport.

To make it simpler

Let's say I have these commands:

/summon ArmorStand ~ ~ ~ {CustomName:bottom,NoGravity:1,Passengers:[{id:Zombie,Passengers:[{id:"ArmorStand",NoGravity:1,CustomName:top}]}]}

/kill @e[type=Zombie]

/execute @e[name=bottom] ~ ~ ~ /tp @e[name=top] ~ ~-3 ~

And I put it into a sign using this sign generator. The result won't be the same as when I execute the commands each by hand. For an example click here. What is the problem here?

texts: Lag on old PC games until a gamepad is connected

texts:
Some older Windows XP games are running very slow on my Windows 10 PC. However, if a gamepad is connected before the game boots, it runs at full speed. It doesn't matter whether the game even uses gamepad input, mostly with GameMaker games.
Example game to try
Video showing the problem
In the above video's first clip, I run the game with no gamepad connected first, and it lags. Then, upon connecting a gamepad (Shown on the bottom-right as Steam detects the controller) and restarting the game, it runs at full speed.
In the second clip, I run the game with a gamepad already connected, and it is running full speed. I disconnect the gamepad and restart the game, and get lag. Upon re-connecting the controller and restarting the game, it runs at full speed again.
I've tried all sorts of compatibility settings (Running in compatibility for XP on both service packs, compatibility for 7/8/8.1, compatibility for admin privileges, run in low-res monitor mode, tried different color bit settings) to no avail.
It can't possibly be my PC either:

Windows 10 Pro (64-bit) running on an SSD
Intel i7-6700K (4.0 Ghz quad core)
32GB DDR4 RAM
AMD RX580

Any suggestions on how I can get this working?

texts: How do I solve chamber 6, chapter 8 properly?

texts:
Yesterday I kludged my way around chamber 6 in The Itch. What I did:

Obtain a cube, blocking it from emancipation with the wall
Extend bridge ahead of turrets
Once 'safely' through the emancipation grid keep a portal on the back side of the chamber
Portal the cube on the other side of the room
Now I can't setup the antiturret bridge again, so via trial and death I try and launch the cube as far as I can without being mowed down.
Eventually I manage to push the cube on the button, not on the side with legs, and back out in the nick of time
I move along

This must be suboptimal, and the... supervisor points out that surely there must be a better way. It then agrees there isn't, but in context that means very little.

Is there a better way, or is GLaDOS that sadistic?

texts: Did minecraft 1.4.2 nerf high level enchantments in favour of the new Anvil?

texts:
Since minecraft 1.4.2 came out yesterday, it introduced a new "Anvil" block - capable of combining enchantments from multiple items.

Last night I put two bows on the enchantment table, enchanting them both with level-30 exp. One bow gave me a sad "Power II" and the other one gave me a sad "Flame I" (I'm serious, level-30).

On the other hand, I got a "Power III & Flame I" bow with only a level-17 enchanting a few days ago in version 1.3.2. (Based on my memory; actual enchanting results or level used could be slightly off, but you see my point.)

Is this just bad luck, or has enchanting been nerfed recently?

texts: Why can't I play Simpsons: Tapped Out while signed into Origin?

texts:
I keep trying to sign into my Origin account while playing Tapped Out, but I keep having the same problem.

If I play without the Origin login, everything works amazingly.

If I sign into my Origin account, I just get server error after server error, and it just refuses to connect to the server at all, which means I can't play.

There aren't any specific errors given, just an image of Bart Simpson holding a power cord, and the following text: "Sorry, an error occurred and we can't connect to the server. Please try again." And then an option to retry connecting, which results in the same error image.

I have tried both over a 3G connection, and wifi, and either way, it refuses to connect to the server if I have signed into Origin.

Is there some way to fix this so I can sign into Origin AND play?

texts: How do you teleport a player relatively but without finishing at 0.5 on each axis?

texts:
Basically I have a command block on repeat without need of redstone and the command is:
execute if entity @p[dy=1] run tp @p ~7 80 ~-20

The purpose of it is to attempt seamless teleport which has worked... well sort of. When i walk over it, it teleports me to the correct coordinates but always finishing at 0.5. What I mean is this, if my x coordinate is 123.2152 then if i teleport relatively to -2 blocks then it ends up at 121.5 not 121.2152.
How do I get it to end up at not 0.5?


texts: .50 Cal Hunting Rifle doing WAY more damage than other guns?

texts:
I am level 25, on Hard mode, and have found that I have a very hard time killing most bad guys of similar level. I have a rare shotgun w/ exploding ammo that does 70 base dmg and it's my best weapon, but even still takes a good 10 shots to kill most robots or super mutants.

Last night I stumbled upon a .50 Cal Hunting Rifle, which I decided to pick up as I hadn't seen one before. It does 90 damage and has some mods for scope, fast reload, etc. I figured shotgun up close for 70 dmg + 15 dmg per exploding bullet would surely be comparable to the 90 damage .50 Cal, but to my surprise the Hunting Rifle does almost 5-6x the damage of any of my other 70 damage shotguns or 70 damage rare rifles (.308, .38, .45, laser). It kills most super mutants in 2 hits, raiders in 1-2, even level 30-35 enemies die in 3-4 shots.

Why does it do so much more damage? It isn't rare and has no special stats. I would think that going from 70 to 90 damage would be just over a 28% increase, but it seems more like 500%. I just want to understand why.

Possible Duplicate:
  Can both the digital and analog output on the Xbox 360 be used at once?

I recently got an Xbox Slim and I have some trouble connecting it to my monitor and stereo.

For the monitor I got an HDMI-to-DVI cable and now I can see something at least, but for the audio I have this problem: the big cable with the audio connectors that came with the Xbox has a part that when plugged in to the console is covering the HDMI port, so that I cannot connect both cables at once.

So now I can get either video or audio but not both.

I assume this is on purpose but I was wondering if it is safe to cut away the part of the cable which is covering the HDMI port, so that I can connect both cables at once. Is that true?

texts: What block is the slowest to break with pickaxe?

texts:
All the entries in the wiki etc focus on breaking speed of blocks using 'the right tool', and I couldn't find anything about breaking blocks with 'wrong tool'. And I'm wondering what is the slowest block to mine with pickaxe obtainable legally in survival.

My last concrete making session ended up with a big hole in the 'concrete maker' as I was afk'ing using my diamond pickaxe (with mending enchantment) and missed the moment concrete ran out. Within range of a beacon set to Haste 2, the pickaxe chewed through the obsidian back of the concrete maker in matter of moments and proceeded to punch a hole in the wall of my super-smelter that happened to be behind that wall.

Are there any other materials more resistant to pickaxe than obsidian? I mean, at this point it seems like wool takes longer, but I'm not sure. I'm almost feeling like putting a nametagged zombie behind the obsidian, that would take a while to break with a pick.

Next, I borrowed a friend's power supply, again all I got was the orange light and the console wouldn't turn on.

I've also tried unplugging everything except for the power, but that still doesn't work.

The console is no longer under warranty.


texts: What affects your credit score in Endless Sky?

texts:
Endless Sky improves upon the Escape Velocity series it was inspired by and modeled after by adding a banking/financial system, complete with loans/mortgages, interest rates, a credit score mechanic, and even death benefits (you pay relatives of the deceased when a crew member dies).

I understand the basics of how these work, including the credit score: a higher credit score means you can apply for larger loans with better interest rates, just like in the real world.

My question:

What factors determine your credit score, and how important is each relative to the others?

Factors that seem relevant:

Recent income (loans are higher when I have been making more money)
Net worth
Amount of debt (loans, bereavement, etc.)
Capacity for repayment (combat rating? cargo capacity?)


texts: How to change the biome, or at least the grass color, without mods in Minecraft

texts:
As stated in the title, I need to change the biome, or at least the grass colour, without mods. I need a darker colour, so Forest would be the best I can think of.

So I searched in Arqade for existing questions about the same topic. What I found was not vanilla. The answers said that the only way to do this is with MCEdit, which I don't have. I don't have any mods, actually, which is why I'm asking for a vanilla way to do it.

Other answers were addressing the old 1.1/1.2 version of Minecraft, and I am using the latest version, 1.12.2.

So, any way to do it without mods? I know this search might as well be hopeless, but I might as well try.

Thanks to anyone who can find an answer!

texts: Can I change which server my Minecraft skin goes to? (If yes, how?)

texts:
Before anybody closes this... I am not referring to the current method of obtaining skins.

How do I change the old skin? (Obtained through Method 1)

I know the upload box in your Minecraft Profile page changes the result for the new (second) result, but is there any way to sync or at least change the old (first) method?

As you can see, the skins on both URLs (for the same user) are different. (not in the sense that one is the newer 64x64 format and the other is still 64x32 but they are both completely different skins)
One is some sort of futuristic armor guy in a dwarven armor, while another is a... Er.. this.

Link 1: http://s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftSkins/aytimothy.png
Link 2: http://textures.minecraft.net/texture/46e54b38ca489583f5f3e69cd0f25c50adcf29253fc5169dc6abafdc4770

Can I change the old skin (obtained through the first method) with baked textures (anything on the armor layers goes onto the actual skin layer) so that it'll appear the same in pre-r1.3 versions?

In Minecraft, there are currently two ways of obtaining skins.
The following examples are with my own skin.

The old Method:

Find the username's skin through the Amazon CDN links or via the game site.

GET http://s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftSkins/aytimothy.png

or:

GET http://skins.minecraft.net/MinecraftSkins/aytimothy.png

And that's it. (Literally)
Note: The skins.minecraft.net link has been updated to retrieve the skin from textures.minecraft.net (second link).

The new Method:

Find the username's UUID from the Mojang API.

POST https://api.mojang.com/users/profiles/minecraft/aytimothy

Which results in something like this:

{
 "id": "29c91bd0538b4fb6b212e2393faff119",
 "name": "aytimothy"
}

Find the Base64 string that contains the skin/cape texture link.

GET https://sessionserver.mojang.com/session/minecraft/profile/29c91bd0538b4fb6b212e2393faff119

Which results in something like this:

{
 "id": "29c91bd0538b4fb6b212e2393faff119",
 "name": "aytimothy",
 "properties":[
     {
     "name": "textures",

texts: Can I categorize Steam games by their install location?

texts:
I've got two drives in my PC at this time, a 500GB SSD and a 1TB HDD. I've got Steam games installed across both drives, and games I play more often are kept on the SSD, while things I don't mind waiting a little extra time for hang out on the HDD.

I know Steam can filter games to show you a list of installed games only. But can this list be further sorted to show which games are installed on C: (SSD) or F: (HDD)?


texts: What to do about a scratched copy of Black Ops?

texts:
So I bought Black Ops on the midnight release date. It was all working fine then it started freezing up while loading certain maps. I took out the disc and there is a perfect circle around the outer edge of the disc(which is clearly scratches). Now I tried installing the game onto my harddrive but it always comes up with a can not read disc error. Has anyone else had this problem? I've never had any problems with this xbox scratching discs before, only with this game.

Also something that may help. My friend has a copy of Black Ops also. I could install that copy onto my harddrive, but I think it wouldn't let both of us play at the same time using that copy? Is there any way I can use the disc ID off of my scratched disc, but play it off of my harddrive from my friend's disc?


texts: Setblock Direction For Redstone Torches (Minecraft 1.13)

texts:
Previously before the Minecraft 1.13 release, you used to be able to use

/setblock 373 42 269 redstone_torch 2

and be able to choose the rotation of the torch you're setting. However, with this new update with changes to Minecraft Commands, you can't set the rotation of the redstone torch just by placing for example, a '2' next to redstone_torch.

So how would I be able to set the rotation of a redstone torch via the /setblock command in the new 1.13 update?

texts: Trying to downgrade the Steam version of Stardew Valley on Linux from 1.3 to 1.2

texts: I'm trying to downgrade my Steam version of Stardew Valley from 1.3 to 1.2 on Linux (for the .xnb mods), and I stumbled upon this tutorial, which explains how to downgrade, but has the Windows version AppID, DepotID, and ManifestID. Does anyone know the AppID, DepotID, and ManifestID for the 1.2 Linux version?


texts: I accidentally "purchased" 3 BF Biftas and want to permanently get rid of it and all the cars i want are expensive. So if i get two impounded and fill up my garage with crappy stolen cars and then sell those will it get rid of the unwanted BF Biftas? I tried to destroy them but when I tried to call my insurance they would show up and it was a big hassle. What should i do to permanently have the Bifta out of my garage?

texts: What are the main differences of Hardcore Mode?

texts:
I was curious as to what the differences in gameplay there are between regular mode and hardcore mode?

From what I understand is that you require sleep, food, and water. What are the penalties(other than eventual death) if you are sleep deprived or starved also?


texts: In Fallout 4, can a trash mob drop a critical item?

texts:
I was playing Fallout 4 and got to the Corvega Factory and killed some not completely random trash mobs.  It was difficult to get to them and loot them immediately though, and after I tried to loot some other enemies and stash some stuff in some containers, the corpses for the raiders at the factory had already disappeared.

Now this raises a question: In general (whether at this location or any other), can a non-named mob ever drop something critical - in particular, something that cannot be obtained later off of another mob?  If so, will that guarantee their corpse will stay there indefinitely until the item is looted?


texts: How do I read the accuracy stat of weapons?

texts:
The accuracy stats of my favorite gun read:

HIP ACCURACY   2 / 2.5 / 2.5 / 3 / 0.14
AIM ACCURACY   0 / 0.17 / 0 / 0.32 / 0.07

What exactly does each of these numbers mean? I guess the different numbers apply to different game situations like standing, running or jumping, but which one is which? I am asking because I also have a different gun which is better in some but worse in others so I would like to know how I should adjust my playstyle when using that one.


texts: Why would a Pokemon have the incense glow?

texts:
Today while playing Pokemon Go, I popped an incense to try and catch some Pokemon. After the incense kicked in, two Pidgeys showed up. One of them was normal, however the other had the incense glow floating around the other. I've never seen this before.

Why would the incense be floating around the Pidgeys?

texts:
My son recently had is grandmother purchase him an old N64 console.  Seeing that we don't have any CRT TVs, I purchased a composite to VGA converter box.  It connected it up to his PC monitor (Dell 23 inch flat screen) and it does not work.  So, I tried the PS2 that he has and it DID work.  This tells me that the converter box is fine.

So I tried cleaning all of the contacts on the cartridges and on the N64.  I start to get jumbled video and then nothing.  Is my issue more than likely the N64 or could it still be the converter box / monitor combination?  I don't want to spend money trying to find the rare CRT TV for this if the N64 is bad.

Thoughts?
