Fixing car games

I have an issue with abusing caffeine which is considerably milder than alcohol which is what my step-dad abuses. I constantly twist the truth and lie to people, abuse their trust in me to get him alcohol- I have no other choice as I'm incompetent and unable / unwilling to find a job. On a daily basis for years now he either ignores me, insults me to the ground or threatens to hurt/kill me which is becoming less scary with how much he uses that. I took up the role of cleaning the house, mopping the floor etc because my mother is working a job to keep the house paid for. He sits at home or goes out looking for more alcohol.
Recently he demanded me to get a job at a bakery which I was heavily opposed to but went with it out of fear. I wanted to tell him he could get a job instead, to fuck off or anything of that sort. He asks me if I love him- I hold back the desire to tell him i want him to commit suicide to leave me and my mom alone. I hate him- I hate how he stole my childhood. I had violent thoughts of murdering or hurting him, stabbing him or ripping his entrails out. They haunt my dreams and I escape to my addiction for pornography, which I consumed for over 5 years- and I am 19 now. All this is something I could never reveal to anyone on the internet on my personal accounts- That's one reason why I'm posting this on a burner account.
I've not been to a therapist in my life, and my mental state was left up to me to be fixed after various incidents- constant running away from home when he got super violent, constant fear of getting hurt, constant going to the store for alcohol, and all the events sticking in my head. I can't forget. I can't but he did.
It's not as bad as many others had it, but I don't care. I never deserved this. I will also tell one story- back when I lived in england, on a Thursday I can home from school and he was hyper agressive. I think he took drugs. I was screamed at to go downstairs, and he accused me of being with ISIS. I denied and he slapped me across the face twice after I cried. He told me to get in the car and we drove to get my mom from work. He told me I was going to tell her I was with ISIS. We started driving home and he became physical with her. She took her seat and pushed it forward (it was one of those cars that has the back seats without doors) and told me to run. He grabber her hair and I desperately dragged her out ( IN FUCKING PUBLIC ) before he drove off in anger. I cried because I had my mom with me. She didn't leave him yet. I missed school on Friday but I used to do that without a reason so no questions were asked.
I wish he just would die from his alcohol abuse. I want him to finally die and leave us alone. I want him to kill himself. I just want peace.

Hey guys, so for the past 3 days or so, I’ve been unable to use party chat, or in game chat. Multiplayer games (mostly) work fine, my Xbox has wired internet, every other device in my house works fine. I assumed that when that outage happened, it would likely fix it, but this morning I’m still having the same issues. Can’t use voice chat in any games, and when I join an Xbox party it says everyone is disconnected and then I get an error code saying my network settings block this (UPNP is enabled, open NAT type). Discord works fine oddly enough, is there anything I can do to fix this? I’ve tried just about everything I can think of so far- resetting my Xbox, my router, switching to wireless, trying a different account

The strange thing is that after letting the car sit for 2 hours and checking the lug nuts and making sure my shocks or control arms weren't literally falling off. I drove it home no problem, 150kph smooth like normal.
When it was shaking/wobbling, I was on the highway going about 90kph, I had just torqued the wheels recently, so I was worried a wheel was falling off. I took it out of gear to listen, but I couldn't hear any noise, so I figure it's probably not a wheel bearing. The wobble didn't seem to recede when turning right, I wasn't going particularly quick, though. I didn't have a chance to diagnose any further. When I got the car about 2 months ago, the seller had it certified and had the rear shocks done. I think Canadian Tire tore a bushing or something. It's strange how it magically fixed itself, though. Do you think I'm right, or does this seem like something completely different? Sorry this was a bit long. I didn't want to leave anything out. Thanks.

I got hit by a witch and figured I'll just die gets some exp get some new armor and boom, I'll head back when I'm ready. NOPE. after respawning most of the effects went away but when I look up I actually look down and vice versa, THIS IS AFFECTING ALL WORLDS ON MY RLCRAFT. I cant even use a world backup. I restarted the game, reset the controls, equipped silver armor, died again and just nothing fixes it. How is this glitchy effect in a large modpack?????

Whenever I grab a car or check my map, the game Hums super loud. Before it was only around my car but now it's just constant.

im running a ryzen 5 5600x, rtx 3060 and 16gb of DDR4 ram and am not looking to overclock. ive been struggling to find help with improving the performance and stability of my build and where i should start. its really overwhelming and i was wondering if anyone could step by step and me questions and guide me through helping me fix mu god awful fps, or reccomending me to someone who will. I dont know where else to go to ask this kind of stuff so i was wondering if this is the right place. im struggling to keep a consistent 144fps in battle royale games like fortnite, and get random frame spikes on games like minecraft with no background apps. If anyone knows how to help me, id very much appreciate it. im also running on a 75hz monitor running games higher than that frame rate so i'd like to know if that has anything to do with it, but even when i run games with vsync on for games like spider-man remastered, i get random frame drops and annoying stuttering while swinging around.

Hi,
I just bought the game on PC and I have a 1440p monitor and a 2160p TV as second display output. Unfortunately the game settings haven't the option to start the game or switch to 2nd monitor. Using window + shift + arrow on borderlesss window works but : * I have to do it every time I launch the game. * Alt -tab "resize" the window on the TV to 1440p.
I've tried "displayfusion" but it's not working correctly. Is there any fix or something specific to do so I can play the game on 2160p with the ability to alt tab on the 2nd monitor?
Thanks in advance,

With the recent Gwimbly episode out, I decided to review one of the classic platformers to see the light of Sun in the mid 90's. Everyone remembers the legacy of this game, but boy oh boy, nostalgia glasses sure compensate for some of the glaring issues that plague this title.
Precedents and Development:
"The magic Adventures of Gwimbly in Corn Land" is one of those Megadrive publicity games, such as M&Ms or The Noid video-game, this time from the Monsanto company. And the least said about this, the better. Left-to-right side scrolling, awful controls, repetitive and boring, it was deemed to be a forgotten artifact. But, by good fortune, it was one of the (allegedly) two games that series albanian creator Petulla Pulle had as a kid.
Petulla deserves an aside. Learning to code intuitively and implementing Risk on his Casio FX-81 at the age of 6, he is not the poor boy that media wanted us to belive. Coming from a well off family, when he arrived in the US he co-created Sweet Games (now Insane Groundbreaking Games) with his friend Zachary Taylor, and they started development on Gwimbly after acquiring the Licence from a gambling bet in a pub in New York. Although his reputation being ripped apart now by the abuse accusations and toxic working enviroment, Pulle was a popular figure among gamers in the late 90's and 00's, and his advancements in the field should be recognised.
So, basically a one man job, Gwimbly finished its development in just under 2 years and came out for the PSX in August 1996, just one month before Mario 64, which eclipsed the relevance of the first game in sales. Even so, it was the alternative for the Sony owners at the time looking for a collectathon platformer in the, then, new 3rd dimension. But growing pains show all over the game, as we'll see.
Graphics:
While not being bad, a lot of the 5th generation of consoles problems are present. Textures warp and wabble, popping is noticible even in small areas, and glitches are all over the place, specially after acquiring the triple jump.
What, then, has made that Gwimbly sticks to our memories? The character designs and animations, of course. All of them, from the little Cheddar Gobblin enemies of the first level until Count Groxya, without forgetting Mr. Millipede. Even little details, like Gwimbly's iddle animations, reflect care and dedication (unlike its sequels, but we'll talk about that later).
Sound and FX:
This must be the aspect of the game that stincks the most. The constant crackling and stuttering stuck into my ears as a kid, and it certainly has not gotten better as an adult. The howling made for some funny misunderstandings (the classic line "If I had my Gwimbly gun" was supposed to say "If I had some Sweet Corn", but it made for a good meme in the episode), but it was not good even for that time. And, worst of all, while not being at Gex levels, the constant repetition of lines and screams from Gwimbly got annoying real quick.
Music is nothing to write home about. The Corn Hills theme was catchy, but after the 100th time you got tired of it. The use of Theremin and Erhu instruments was more innovative than effective in the latter levels. Only the Menu Music has had some lasting effects, even musically referenced in the Celeste Soundtrack.
Gameplay:
Gwimbly is a short game, and I think that's a positive. With only 50 Corn Cans to collect, with four main levels, a central Hub and the last Can Count Castle, it didn't worn out its welcome with its 8-10 hour average run.
Nowadays, Gwimbly feels cluncky to control. The comitment you had to endure with some of the jumps is incredible, and the run and jump distance seems inconsistent. But, worst offender of all, the camera was not good. And who ever thought that recentering the camera with the X button was a good idea.
Levels:
- Silly-corn Valley: Everybody remembers the central Hub and tutorial level. Mr Millipede serves as our side kick, and the one who teach us how to jump, roll and make the Gwimbly Stimbly, all while staring us with his glassy eyes. You could skip its advices, and if you did not talk to him once it was recognised in the access to the final level, where he would ask you who you were.
- Icy Corn Flakes: a little fun snow level, the developers made the wise decission to not have icey controls (EDIT: it seems that it was programmed into the level, but it was badly implemented so you walked normally). The 10 Corn Cans here are not very difficult, and the Uni-Corn boss was cute.
- Corncob swamp: The swim level. Enough said.
- The Corn Maze: I still have nightmares from this level. Not by the theming or "spooky" music, but from the level design. The constant back-tracking, the Ghosts of Cornstmass Past and specially the, not one, but 2 Corn Cans that made you speedrun the maze almost made me quit the game more than once. In the second run of the maze, Pulle admitted that he put the least amount of time possible WITHOUT CONSIDERING the animation of the door opening, so it was literally no possible to get it unless you glitched through the invisible wall at the beginning.
- Corn Field of Lava: the amazing thing about this level is that, after activating the volcanoe, the entire level was transformed and filled with pop-corn. Be sure to grab the Can at the beginning of the level, after the jumping rocks, because it will not be possible to grab it after the level remodelling (probably by mistake).
- Can Count Castle: I wish I could say the best was reserved for last, but the tight platforming of this level was a frustration factory from start to finish. The only positive is the Final Boss, and the secret animation if you collected all Corn Cans (and the reason why it was made a PG 13+).
Conclusion and Legacy:
Gwimbly in its original state is a game that lives best in our memories, rather than our current consoles. Luckily, its amazing fandom has corrected many of the graphical glitches and performance issues via patches and ROMs that enhance the expirience. But the level design, even with its good moments, is not something you can easily fix.
The inmediate sequel (Gwimbly 2 on Corny Land // Gwimbly 2: The Adventure of Gwimble and Millipede in PAL regions), that came out just a year after the 1rst game release, pullished some aspects of the original while inexplicably substracting from others. The most glaring example is the introduction of fall damage.
Gwimbly 3 Revengance, which came out in late 2003, was a terrible disappointment. It mutted the sparckly colors of the first two entries, and the introduction of Gwimbly Guns and the absence of Mr.Millipede (who was going through some stuff at the time) left a sour taste for the fans of the franchise for what was its final entry. The development hell that Gwimbly 4 went through, and the aforementioned Pulle accusations, put Gwimbly in a weird spot for the next 15 years.
Let's just hope Insane Groundbreaking Games make something with the face of the company. I do not want a fighting game from Gwimbly. I want a new platformer, and, if one can dream, the first truly good game of the saga.

(minor spoilers for Dune, but I try to be as non-descriptive as possible)
Have you ever watched, or played or experienced an adaptation of a story that was so good, that you feel conflicted on whether or not you want to experience the source material?
This is something that I subconsciously struggled with before, but I just recently recognised this feeling after finishing all of the Steins;Gate anime.
For those that might not know, Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0 are anime adaptations of visual novel games. I have become obsessed with Steins;Gate, can't get enough of it, I watched the animes, the movie, most of the OVAs (though not all yet), and after that I did what (I would assume) a lot of other people do and started watching reaction videos to "try to re-experience it", I guess you could say. But, you know, that can only get so far. And it was during this that I learned through Youtube comments that the anime originates from visual novels. So it would be a fair assumption that I should play the visual novels too, after all, I am desperately after more content, right?
But, you know, I don't think I want to. If I were to play the visual novels, or read the manga or something like that, my feelings towards/opinion of the anime would change. I might think less of it, because I would be like "why isn't this in the anime?", "why was this changed?", "why is this different?".
Reading the source material for an adaptation always changes your feelings towards the adaptation. It always makes it a comparison between the two, and the adaptation usually loses that comparison. Once you experience the source material, the adapation becomes less/non-canon is a sense, because it's different then what was originally intended.
I've always been the kind of person to read the manga to animes I really liked, to get more of the story, and to get it the way it was intended, that's why I know first-hand just how much it can change your perception of a series. After reading the Tokyo Ghoul manga, I can't go back to the anime, after reading Berserk I can only think of how inferior the adaptations are compared to it, after reading Jojo's I can only think of how much the anime butchered the pacing in some places.
But I don't want the same thing to happen to Steins;Gate, because I love the anime, and I feel like I would, in a way, invalidate my feelings towards it by experiencing the source material.
And it's not just with anime and manga, but other media as well.
I love Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk Edgerunners, I love the characters, the world, the stories, I love it. I will watch the live-action series they are working on and will play the sequel. But I will never read any of the books for the original table-top game. I will not look at any OG lore that isn't in the game/series itself. Because I love the story and world the way they are, and I don't want to change that, even if it means ignoring heaps of more content.
Same with Lord of the Rings. I love the movies, even the Hobbit trilogy (tho it is much worse than LOTR). I will probably never read any of the books, because, again, that would take away from the story of the movies by adding comparison.
I wanted to do the same with Dune. I love the new Dune movies. But my enjoyment of their story is already affected somewhat by learning about the Spacing Guild and how they were pretty much cut out from the movies from Reddit and Youtube. Like, when I was watching the movies I didn't miss them, I didn't care about them, because they weren't in the movie, but that didn't impact the story for me. But now that I know about them, I'm like, the Spacing Guild is pretty important, why weren't they in the films? (tho this can be fixed in the 3rd film) But like, even this small amount of knowledge permanently changed the way I feel about the story of the movies. It's still incredible and I still love it, but it's no longer the almost perfect 10/10 I watched in the cinema, it's the still great, but flawed adatpation of something more developed and complex.
Of course I try to appreciate the adaptations of things I know the source material to for what they are, and not for what they aren't, but it can be hard to not draw comparisons.
And obviously I don't avoid the source material for every adaptation I consume. I will still read the manga for a lot of anime I like, and I will still read the book of some movies or series I watch. But sometimes an adaptation feels so special to me that I don't want to take away anything from it and I don't want to change anything about it.
So I guess what I'm trying to say here is that sometimes preserving the way you think and feel about a story is more important than getting more content out of it. It's up to everyone individually to decide what is more important to them, and which stories they want to preserve. It can be kind of hard to overcome the desire for more out of a story you love, but to me at least, sometimes the integrity, I guess you could say, of the story is simply more important.

Hi, I am just setting up my Trimui Smart Pro but I got a problem with the save games.
I tried my Yu-Gi-Oh Tag Force 6 Savegame but it won't load.
I used this path on my SD card: \Emus\PPSSPP\PPSSPP_1.15.4.config\ppsspp\PSP\SAVEDATA
And paste the ULJM059400001 in the SAVE DATA folder.
The Savegame works perfectly on my PSP. Any ideas how I can fix this problem?
Any help is appreciated 👍

UPCOMING CONTENT PREVIEW
Hello, today I am going to try something new. I'm going to post a preview of the upcoming content, except you'll get a different preview depending on your Patreon level.
$3: A text description of the upcoming content. $5: A screenshot of upcoming content. $10: A 70-second video of upcoming content.
Although I am currently focusing on polishing Amai's week, I have already started requesting the assets I'll need for Kizana's week, and they're being provided to me bit by bit. Recently, I received a very important asset: the building that the player will infiltrate in the "Befriend/Betray Kizana" stealth mission!
I'm not going to reveal the nature of the building to you - who owns it, what kind of business is carried out here, etc. - but I will tell you a few things about it:
It has four floors. The ground floor is the reception area, the upper floor is almost entirely dedicated to the CEO's extravagant office and the two middle floors are for business.
A security guard will patrol the outside of the building. There will be a receptionist at the reception. The CEO and two of his employees will be present in the building and will be a threat to the player.
There will be five ways to enter the building: Front door, back door, second floor window, third floor window, and fourth floor balcony. You'll have to find a way to get the receptionist away from the front desk if you want to get through without being stopped. Entering through the fourth floor is the most direct way to reach your objective, but requires you to infiltrate an adjacent building. If you enter through either window, you'll have to stack things to make a makeshift ladder and then climb it, just like in the "Befriend/Betray Amai" stealth mission. The exterior environment of this building will be smaller than the environment of Amai's "Befriend" and "Betray" stealth missions. This was a deliberate decision: Amai's stealth mission was too big and took a lot of time and work to implement. However, the environment outside this building will still be larger than the environment outside the stalker's house in the Osana stealth mission.
If you watch the video, you'll notice some errors in the environment, such as the stairs that intersect with the windows. Don't worry; These bugs will be fixed before the release of Kizana.
Like the Amai stealth mission environment, this environment has been paid for by your donations to Patreon! Your support continues to make the development of the game possible.
Thank you for supporting the development of Yandere Simulator!

Anyone know of any places that have experience in fixing steam deck portable video game consoles?
The problems I am having are described here:
https://www.reddit.com/SteamDeck/s/N4aKyhTtke

My Laptop screen is broke, so I usually fix this by using a second Monitor and a hdmi cable. Used this like 7-8 month ago and kept him Safe in a Box. Now I wanted to Play some Games again and my Laptop Doesnt Send Any Signal…. Used HDMI and VGA but keep getting no Signal.

I recently bought a car using a trade in with equal equity. I finalized a financing option with a fair APR %. However, it got denied. They called me back in to get into another financing deal with another bank at a higher APR % because come to find out that the car came from Canada. Did I get cooked or what? Did I get gotcha'd?
Also a little more information about the car, not regarding the aforementioned, the car has a cracked windshield(it was small enough that you couldn't see, but bad enough that it needs to be replaced) that I didn't see before deciding to finance the car. I already addressed it to the dealership. They've been working with me, but it seems to me like they are prolonging the process. How long does the dealership have to fix this problem? Are they obligated to fix it?

I realized this for a while but I just thought they boss SFX is extremely low volume.
Then I fought Lampy, more than half of its attacks makes no sound. It's swipe, it's jab and stab. A lot of the bosses in this game actually makes no sound while attacking which feels a little bit weird.
Is this intended design or will it eventually be added or fixed you guys think?

Hello, so I had never had a problem ever like this but while playing squad my microphone stops working and I hear the windows sound that it disconnect and connects, in no other game but squad, is there any fix to this or anything? I checked my USB and its fine and I have no idea what could be causing this.

I keep seeing posts where people have these games and go to the aether. However I have played 3 nights in the last month ultimately about 6 games because I’ve only played matches that result in crashing. It’s the only game and even the only mode I so much as lag in. Is there a way to fix that or should I just give up?

As the title says, the game often gets stuck at 65% on the loading screen whenever I start a match. Not always, but often.
It happens in both Classic and Arena modes. I have to restart the game, sometimes multiple times, to re-enter the match. How can I fix this?

For 2 months I’ve been dealing with pain and so much more it’s been so unbearable I’m practically disabled I’ve always been the “manly man” type always just lifted whatever needed to be moved without worrying about it using all my strength working on cars spending time in the woods building campsites and chopping wood and blah blah I got my license super late at 20 I just got a job at 21 after not having a job the past 2 years and to celebrate I got drunk idk wtf happened cause I woke up with hemroids and haven’t been able to have bms or gas without immense struggle ever since that day I have no one to talk Im back to staying with my dad he doesn’t understand whatsoever and treats me like I’m some lazy piece of shit meanwhile ALL I want to do is work I hate being in bed I hate not even being able to rely on my body to function correctly on top of this my whole life has fucking sucked I’m a virgin I’ve had one gf and she cheated on me I live in the country in the middle of fucking nowhere so I already had a slim chance of meeting anyone and I doubt anyone’s gonna fuck with me now that I’m like this my doctors worth fuck all motherfucker couldn’t figure out the difference between a cold and a broken leg I’m just tired man I’m scared my life’s over all my freinds have moved off and have successful lives and here I am laying in bed watching YouTube playing video games I swear on everything if I can make a recovery whatsoever I’ll get what ever waivers necessary and I’m going straight to the damn army and getting the fuck outta here with the way I feel all I wanna do is drink or get high and both of those things just make this shit infinitely worse so I’m months sober and just depressed angry and have nothing ti do everyday all day life sucks and what happens if I don’t get better my parents eventually get tired of me and kick me to the streets I’m literally unable ti work and I don’t think you could even claim disability with this if you wanted too especially when dr fuck face won’t get a diagnosis so I guess I’ll just end up homeless and starving to death what a life…
