Hello, friends :)

Hope I'm tagging everything correctly and am not breaking any rules - I was afraid to spoil myself so I purposely didn't read all the fine print in the No Spoilers-section of the sub rules..

!I believe I'm very near the endgame. I've visited and (I think?) exhausted every place I can find except the Quantum Moon (if, like most things in this game, there is nothing but knowledge stopping me from visiting it - then I've yet to figure that out, I guess). My digital 'whiteboard' of clues has very few remaining open threads. I'm not sure how linear this game tends to be, but my most endgame-esque recent discoveries have been the Nomai ship and our harmonica-playing friend, th

This is a long shot - a thing so obscure and specific, with so little to go on.. but this one's been eating at me, so let's see!

I was a teenage gamer in the early and mid 00s, and there was a vibrant community and exchange of Counterstrike content, with players editing their exploits and those of others into so-called fragmovies. These could then be shared on sites like HLTV.org and GotFrag. The video I'm looking for was one of those fragmovies.

More details:
- It was most likely CS 1.6 or 1.5, though it could be older. It was definitely not later, like CZ, Source or GO.
- It featured the song "Cross Out the Eyes" by the band Thursday. The video might actually

Hey friends, old-schooler here.

So I have this old fragmovie half-stuck in my head that I've been trying to track down. I hope some other old-schoolers here might help me track it down :)

Things I know:
- CS 1.6 or 1.5 (or maybe earlier)
- featured song: "Cross Out the Eyes" by Thursday (dating it to no earlier than 2001)
- map: de_prodigy for all or most of the vid
- featured clan was, as far as I can recall, not truly, strictly speaking 'professional' - but possibly aiming to be
- probably found it on HLTV.org back in the day

The VOD might just have been the length of the song mentioned, in contrast to longer videos featuring multiple songs. But I may

Hi :)

Heard this in a restaurant last night, but was too late to Shazam it. Thought I'd be able to find it, but I didn't. And now it's bugging me.

Chorus melody might be a dead giveaway, so I'll lead with that: https://voca.ro/124C5c0GEOeP

Stylistically, it sounded like those typical RnB bands/artists from the second half of the 90s, like Boyz II Men, Toni Braxton - you know the era. I think I heard male voices, but it was too quiet to tell for sure. I remember noticing the hi-hat was very loud in the mix.

Some nostalgia-buttons in my brain went off which makes me think the song is actually from that timeperiod, but I may be wrong there.

The lyrics go

Hi folks,

Been seeing some confusing and conflicting opinions on this admittedly strange card, was pretty sure I understood it, dove into the CR and IPG, and am now second-guessing myself. Big staple in Premodern, so I want to make sure I know exactly how it works :)

The big question: is my opponent, who controls [[Oath of Druids]], responsible for pointing out its trigger on my upkeep?

It seemed rather obvious to me: they control the permanent, they control the trigger - so they're responsible for putting it on the stack (if possible). Just because I might end up taking game actions during its resolution, doesn't mean it's suddenly my trigger.

But counterarguments state that Oath'

Hi everyone,

I have two almost identical photos. There is the same person in each, in different places. I feel like this should be relatively straightforward: how do I 'combine' those two photos into one photo without the person (in either position)?

No matter what I do, I can't get Object Removal to do this properly. (Two photos into compound clip, mask the person in the two positions, keyframe them, run Object Removal*). It gives me a 95% perfect, beautiful image, then either stumbles on a wall segment, or leaves behind a sort of highlighted afterglow of one of the masks. So now I'm getting lost in the Fusion page, the clone tool, all of that. In over my head, to be honest.

While so

I have a [[Kalamax, the Stormsire]] tapped and active, and I cast [[Sink Into Stupor]], targeting my opponent's Swords to Plowshares on the stack. When I put the copy of Sink Into Stupor on the stack, can I change its target to a Hill Giant controlled by that player?

99% sure I can, since Sink isn't a modal spell - if you asked me if I could change a Lightning Bolt's target from a creature to a player I wouldn't think twice. Just getting a bit tripped over how different 'spell on the stack' and 'permanent in play' feel, I think.

Thanks in advance!

Not sure what happened but some update must've come through in the last few days. About a third of my feed, no exaggeration, is now Sponsored, and I'm getting (multi-slide!) ads in my Stories, too.

And they're all formatted/stylized in such a way that it takes you a second to even realize you're looking at an ad (very clever, I know. Also very annoying.)

I'm done. This is just no fun anymore.

Is this just me? Anyone else checking out? Why is there no outrage?

(And, tin-foil hat time - is this a precursor to a Freemium model?)

Curious to hear your thoughts and experiences.

Platform: PC. Could be MS-DOS, but possibly early Windows.

Genre: I'd call it a real-time (/time based), 2D puzzle game.

Estimated year of release: I was playing it around '95, but compared to games like RE1 and FF7 that were about to come out, this one looked *incredibly* dated. So it could have just been an older game.

Graphics: Basic. 2D. Almost Space Invader-like. A black and white basis, I think. Quite possible you could count the pixels. Could be too abstract/symbolic that neither top down or side on really cover what's happening.

Notable characters: Save a kind of spider- or octopus like boss (that I might be completely making up), I don't really know.

Haven't had it for long. The first week or so of driving the car was fine.

Am currently traveling the continent. After a long day of many KMs and traffic jams in hot weather, the check engine light came on. Along with it came trouble in the lower gears/stationary/neutral/reverse: a pretty serious sideways shaking of the engine and car, a strange grindy noise (growing louder and softer in a kind of pulsating rhythm), the engine reving up to 1K while my foot wasn't on the gas, and almost no response from my throttle.

After pulling up from a traffic jam and being back on higher speeds, everything was fine.

Roadside assistance checked it out the next morning; no problems, no check engine lig

Had my current phone for a few years now. Was happy at first.

But my experience has been getting worse, slowly but consistently. The positioning of the lock screen pattern. Moving the Settings icon all the way to the top of the dropdown. The floating window which shares a motion with multi-tabbing and is extremely unintuitive to close. The timers and clocks that are getting less and less intuitive to set with each iteration. Forcing me to have a minimum amount of shortcuts in the dropdown. All the notifications that you're not allowed to switch off. The Do Not Disturb mode that is unreliable. Not being able to mute Ring, Notification and Alarm from the volume-menu. With the screen brightn

Hi,

First time BMW owner, and loving it so far. Might turn out to be a car guy yet..

So I have a strange issue. I'm taking my new car for a trip around the continent for the first time, and in my case that means 'living out of the trunk' regularly. Now, either I'm going crazy - or the trunk lights used to turn off automatically after some time, some days ago that is, but now they just stay on?

I've tried all the permutations I could think of - central locking on or off, key in or out of slot, doors open or closed, windows up or down - to figure out if I'm doing something differently than before. No luck.

I've found a handful of threads with possible solutions. I tried manually shutting
