And I would have stayed up with him all night if he knew how to take a side.

The console is completely unresponsive. I have a second dock and have tried it in both and tried plugging in directly to the AC adapter.

As I said, I didn't touch any connectors aside from the SD card reader..

I've added a link to some photos. There's nothing visibly wrong with it to my eye, aside from the thermal paste being dried out.

It's still lighter and has the weird gradient. That's the most annoying part to me.

My speakers stop working every time my computer sleeps. I've got an M1 MBP and am using DisplayPort to route audio through my main monitor.

The only way I've found to fix it is to use my KVM switch to switch to my other computer and back to the Macbook or to connect and disconnect my Airpods.

I can’t believe he can still afford to pay Harrison.

He finally did it!

(Just kidding, he didn't.)

There was nothing in the pond, so I figured they must be in the tree. I built my way up to the first horizontal branch just to find I clipped through it and plummeted to the ground. Oops.

This is one of the most annoying resources to farm, especially considering how critical it is for boss fight prep. They're mostly high up on the undersides of the picnic table or deck, so you not only have to build up to them to harvest them, you also need to create floors and walls to catch the nuggets if you don't want them plummeting to the ground and disappearing. It's a ton of infrastructure building just to get a couple nuggets per harvest.

I love doing that in the dropship.

My group built a base on her doorstep so we could quickly dip out and heal/repair as necessary and also respawn right there when somebody inevitably died.

I've been playing the shit of Grounded lately. I did The Forest before that.

And that's when everything started going downhill for America, when Ye Olde Big Pharma started poisoning everyone's brains with mind control drugs.

Some of them want to use you.
Some of them want to get used by you.
Some of them want to abuse you.
Some of them want to be abused.

Was he plumping?

Not exactly the same genre, but these occupy a similar space.

  • Behind the Bastards (and sister podcast It Could Happen Here)
  • Weird Little Guys
  • Conspirituality
  • Quorators
  • The Dollop
  • Bad Hasbara

They're not Cool Zone Media ads, they're iHeart Radio ads.

Fortunately for me, I live outside of the US, so basically all I get are ads for other podcasts. You might try downloading using a VPN set to some random country where they probably don't have an advertising agreement.

That's not the same thing. They never debated him or allowed him to defend himself. People like him are great at deflecting and obfuscating, because that's all they do all day.

They presented his content and added context that is completely absent.

Giving Nick Fuentes a microphone and allowing him to flex his debate skills against someone is a whole other ball of wax.

For any dumb-dumbs like me, this means the in-game options, not the console options.

Necroing this to add some details.

The chapter you want is 10-01_2.

The enemies you are looking for are not stubbies, but small bipeds.

You can run through the city killing each group until they stop spawning in. Run past all the other enemies unless you want Down Attack chips from the Goliaths or Weapon Attack chips from the medium bipeds (but I think chapter 17-01 is better for farming those).

Naturally you'll want Auto-collect Items and Item Scan equipped. Equip the Wave program on all three bots or at least a decent Fast Cooldown so you can spam it. (Try to stay uphill of the enemies to maximize its effectiveness because it doesn't follow the terrain.)

The best route I found is to start at the City Ruins: Center access point, drop directly off the cliff into the hole, where there's a crowd of small bipeds and stubbies, then head towards Engels and kill the next group, veer off left and kill another group, head back up and out and kill the group under Engels' armpit, then hit the group in the large field, then head down the road towards the desert and kill the group with the goliaths, then veer off a bit to the right to kill the group in the shadows. By that time you're back within save range of the access point, so quick save and load the game and do it again. It usually only takes two circuits to fill up your chip inventory. If you want, you can destroy all the useless chips and do another round to save yourself some time, since you probably don't need the money by this point. Whenever you're ready, you can run to the ravine and jump down (assuming you've already pushed the box down - if you haven't, you'll need to make a trip to the forest and jump down from that side) to fuse or sell everything you have. (Note: If he's bugged and won't talk to you, hit pause, wait a second, and unpause and he should be fixed.)

You will also get a metric shit ton of certain materials, so be sure to sell those off too or you'll have a bunch of distracting items laying around that you can't pick up. I was collecting Rusted Clumps, Dented Plates, Broken Keys, Severed Cables, and some other parts so fast I would just sell the entire stack as soon as I had the chance.

For people in the future:

I tried the Pit Hollow and the castle but got bored pretty quickly after getting basically no drops, so I decided I would give up farming them and wait until later. While exploring, I ended up back in the Copied City and discovered that the arena where you fought Adam spawns endless waves of enemies, most of which are stubbies. Long story short, I got way more machine arms than I actually needed in about 10 minutes.
