    Thanks, didn't know what the deal was. I would have asked on reddit since it comes up often but I can't post on reddit :) Anyone else on your character sheet on list of armor and weapons have Unknown a couple of times under simple and martial weapons?

    Act 3 is starting to drag. No idea if most of the stuff I run across quest wise is even worth doing. Got a lot left and am already max level.

    Health Problems

    Really hit a wall today. Always the same. Starts off slow with some really bad itching that numerous itch creams and cortizone cream can't touch. Then the pain which can be best described as bone pain for lack of a better term. I've stocked away a significant amount of pain pills over time and...

    Like I said there are lots of professionals and semi professsionals that have done it for decades or a lifetime. Be hard to beat them and if it was a good investment how long would it take to recover the investment. I lease for $3,000 to $5,000 an acre for 3 years for 25% of production. If it...

    When they frac you get a large emount quickly and it rapidly tapers off to nothing and then it's shut down. Different from doing a well with a pump jack like he's doing. Leasing starts off at about 20% here and goes up from there. 25% probably being normal. An "average" fracing operation might...

    When I opened a Fidelity account I had a small issue. I called support after normal business hours and got a real live person, in the United States that their native language was English and they took care of the problem in just a few minutes and knew of the issue. It's rare nowdays.

    CCP being CCP again. New launcher was rolled out. Window snap is disabled in windows and in the registry to be sure and the launcher will always snap to the edge when resizing which means you miss a good portion of the launcher. They added a way to submit a bug report from the launcher, but you...

    Lithium prices have fallen like a rock in the last year. I can see why with companies throwing money around trying to hit the jackpot (at least in the US). Sometimes things really work out, rarely. https://www.dailymetalprice.com/metalpricecharts.php?c=li&u=kg&d=240

    I thought it had to do with if you went from a wis class to an int class for instance your spells you cast used one or the other depending on which one you went first or lass. I've seen that numerous times but it's never really clear to me. Comes often in the BG Build sub on reddit and everyone...

    OK question time. I took a break from party in act 3 since things kind of slowed down. I'll get back to it later. So I started another character. I may have messed up and end up with some overlap. Dark Urge Duergar dwarf. Well the dwarf gets invis in combat and the dark urge gets the cloak that...

    I tried withers and didn't get the option. Yeah I've done it before and then stole the money. I logged back in and hit continue isntead of load the save and wasn't blocked. Just a hassle cause you can't go straight to camp from there, gotta walk outside then to camp then back inside. Either way...

    The most annoying thing is if one person goes down in combat and they are blocked. Can't heal them, can't throw a potion on them, can't pick them up and move them, can't revive them. It's like they don't exist and the only person that could cast something that could push them is the one that is...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    There does seem to be a disconnect when you reach act 3. Previous parts of the game you were doing a quest to advance or uncover the story. Like someone told a story that didn't really make much sense when they were done nd then said "oh yeah that part I left out" to tie it all together. Go all...

    Going in blind is nice, sometimes. It can have it's disadvantages however. I got into the vault and didn't have enough lockpick tools and didn't have someone with the knock spell.

    You can skip through all that shit and never notice it. It's abundantlly clear in talking to a companion they are headed that way. Just hit leave and end the converstion or pick change subject. I only talk to companions when i have to regarding major quest lines and such. It's all easily...

    Did investigate the toys and fireworks quest. Is there anything more to it than just killing everyone in the fireworks shop? I did that, went back to the donation barn and the dwarf that is supposed to be a vendor just says what are you doing here? Looking it up lot of people say it's buggy...

    Things have really changed over the years. First pics I took with a telescope were an 8" reflector telescope on a mount with a drive, but not guiding or go to. On top of it was an 80 achromat long refractor with an illuminated eyepieces. Used that to eyepiece and scope to guide. Camera was an...

    I'm working on respecing Gale now so I'll see how it goes. It's probably well known but I stumble around and rarely look up stuff. The chair in act 2 that you sit to remove the tadpole then breaksdown gives you a -2 constitution buff that is permanent. I just realised it. Putting in a tadpole...
