How to copy/paste an interior cell?
HeyYou replied to Andyno's topic in Fallout 4's Creation Kit and Modders
I know with some of the older games, it was possible to have more than one instance of the CK open at a time. Of course, that would REALLY drag down your PC..... So, best to get both open, do your copy/paste, save, then close BOTH. Maybe even restart your PC, then go back to playing. -
Or, you have a mod that wants FOSE, and the mod is giving you the error.

Any mods to make the character reload automatically?
HeyYou replied to hucker75's topic in Fallout 4's Discussion
You should automatically reload when your mag is empty. If there is only one left, you have to do it manually. Trying to write a script to automate reloading with anything other than an empty mag would be problematic. -
Gotta change the animations. Not many folks can do that.

Issues with BIOS/Booting
HeyYou replied to RobinHood2005's topic in Hardware and software discussion
Drivers are a LOT less of an issue with Win 10 in any event. Generally, I do a base install of windows, then just run updates. Windows will grab 99% of the drivers it needs. I will usually grab video drivers from the card manufacturer though. I don't trust windows with those. (unless it's an intel or AMD integrated video....) For gaming machines, I will have a look at sound devices as well, as Windows tends to just want to use the MS drivers...... For the odd and strange hardware that windows can't figure out, Snappy Driver Installer has proven to be reliable, and reasonably accurate. It was a godsend when we were still doing windows 7 machines. Instead of having to manually go thru and install each individual driver, just plug in the USB stick, and let Snappy deal with it all. Made win 7 installs a snap. (until you started doing updates...... :) ) -
Should Social Media Giant's Keep Their Immunity To US Libel Laws?
HeyYou replied to edgeburner's topic in Debates
Social media are just an expansion of what's on people's minds and are only tolerant on subjects that aren't 'controversial' towards their own agenda. That agenda isn't substancial, but goes along with what's deemed 'mainstream'. 'Mainstream' is what society deems okay; not rocking the boat in any way or not going against the general consensus. Do what you're told to do, pray when it's thought necessary, be critical only of things you're told to be critical of. There's no freedom of speech when 'social media' shut you down because you go against the grain. Religion and politics are just constructs to keep you obedient. Social media are there to make you believe you have anything to say, that you matter. You don't. You're here to do what you're told, or you get excluded. I've been on the outside looking in all my life, and the older I get, the more glad I am my future is getting shorter and shorter. I don't know about that. I kinda enjoy the "Stupid Human Tricks" show. :D -
Try turning off the Steam Overlay.

Issues with BIOS/Booting
HeyYou replied to RobinHood2005's topic in Hardware and software discussion
I don't trust ANY of those 'fix it' tools, they are more often than not, malicious software. (adware) Windows 10 already does a decent job of updating drivers...... and most of the big manufacturers have their own utilities for update drivers in any event, and they get them directly from the manufacturers website. The number of 'third party' driver sites that I actually trust is vanishingly small, and any site that wants you to install some software, in order to get your driver updates, is universally a scam. -
Should be in the same folder where the game, and FOSE executables are.

Craigslist is a perfect example of just that as well. Congress passed a law (FOSTA) that would hold the liable for content posted on their site. So, in response, craigslist simply completely nuked their personals section. -

I suspect that would only make censorship on those platforms even MORE over-the-top....... How so? If they aren't held accountable, then surely, provided they abide by the constitution, that should mean less censorship and a free flow of ideas? Depends on what message they want going out. If they don't like your message, they will find some reason to suppress it. Just like our government does..... -

Should Social Media Giant's Keep Their Immunity To US Libel Laws?
HeyYou replied to edgeburner's topic in Debates
Despite whatever laws are protecting them from liability for content uploaded on their platforms, despite what the original purpose of those laws were created for, it is still a platform that is privately owned. They don't need to claim any exemptions for responsibility. The reality is, if a platform like Twitter or Facebook or any platform that has large scale traffic suddenly was to be held responsible for everything and anything uploaded to them, the platform would just eventually die out and cease to exist. No one would want to operate or host something that has large scale traffic and manually moderate everything that is being uploaded in fear of potentially being held liable. If your objective is to basically get rid of these social media platforms all together, then to hold them liable would be the way to go because then suddenly over night, Facebook, twitter, YouTube, etc... would all close down in an instant. This is naive and actually comes across as somewhat disingenuous on your part. These companies are far to large and widely used to collapse that quickly or easily. And I have nothing against them claiming exemption for that very reason. They are now, whether we like it or not, the "public squares" for the modern age, with a vast array of content, not just "problematic" content. But they CANNOT be allowed to editorialize or censor at their own will and whim in that case. That is a breach of freedom of speech and cannot be tolerated. And no, Not obfuscating obviously illegal content such as child pornography. The very concept of censoring freedom of speech is almost the epitome of evil, beaten only by certain things such as that mentioned above. Trouble becomes then: Who decides what is 'acceptable'? Or, since they are claiming to be the modern equivalent of the 'public square', should they need be permitted to censor anything at all? Should they leave the National Socialists rantings up there? The white supremacists? The Flat Earthers? Or any other conspiracy theories?? How about folks preaching overthrow of the government? (non-violent of course, as advocating for violent overthrow is already illegal....) One mans' poison, is another mans truth..... So, who is going to decide what is truth for all?? -

Nope, that's a false analogy. Nexus IS a private site, and therefore has the option to censor content they deem inappropriate. But AFAIK Robyn has never tried to claim that The Nexus, despite it's size, popularity, dare I say even ubiquitousness within the modding community, be exempt from any laws or rules pertaining to content shared here. An no I do not believe anything should be censored from a "public" forum. (forum in the olde sense of being a free community discussion zone) Even if that content might be considered by some to be unacceptable or even evil, that too is necessary! And NO! There is no "line" Who decides what the "line" is? Society itself decides if they "choose" to view such things. A perfect example is "American" culture. Violence, particularly human against human is perfectly acceptable in media. Watch many "American" TV shows, and innocent people are butchered and murdered by the dozen. From innocent bystanders, to security guards, to "street cops". And no one raises an eyebrow. But show even a single butt cheek or ...<shock> boob, and people run screaming into the streets. Or take the "C" word (denoting a part of female anatomy) It's virtually NEVER heard in American media, it's one of "those" words that simply isn't even thought. Yet here in Australia, it's generally considered nothing more than a polite form of address or it's used as an "emphasis" word. The point is that no matter how ... horrific ... some image or word/s seem today, there is no guarantee that it will remain so for ever, and the ONLY way to progress is for those things to BE SEEN or BE HEARD in order for "society" to decide for themselves. Without that you create "echo chambers" with "approved" words and thoughts, and that IS EVIL in it's purest form. It also leaves a space for unscrupulous people to pick away at peoples uncertainties and exploit the "what if's" that have always haunted our species. Facebook is a private site, Twitter is a private site. Both require registration, both have TOS you have to agree to to use their service. Nexus is no different. -
If you CPU is at 100%, and the GPU is only at 60..... Then yeah, a better processor will give you better framerates. The game is indeed CPU intensive.

He approached Elon Musk about just such a project. Here's hoping that Elon told him "Not just no, but FRAK no." :D Trump needs to fade from the scene like a bad smell. Go back to doing what he was before he entered the political scene, and stay off TV as well. Hopefully, that will actually happen. After some of the crap he has pulled lately, you would think that no one would want to be even remotely associated with him..... 6 more days to inauguration.. Wouldn't it be nice if that were the end of it? (no, I am not holding my breath on that.) -
Should Social Media Giant's Keep Their Immunity To US Libel Laws?
HeyYou replied to edgeburner's topic in Debates
I agree. The folks posting are the ones that should be responsible for what they post, not the folks hosting it. (and it can be removed if it is found to be violating some rule or other.) Trouble is, folks can post from literally anywhere, and laws are not uniform across the globe. So, what may be illegal in one country, is perfectly fine in another. (child marriage, for instance, or even age of consent.....) So, the solution to that is holding the hoster responsible for what gets posted to their site? Only in America could such an idiotic notion take root...... :D -

By that reasoning, since Nexus does indeed censor content on this site, they should be held accountable for anything uploaded here???? Hhhmmm.... So, when Schaken, (or, however it's spelled) uploaded his 'teen dolls' mod, Nexus should have immediately been shut down, and sued for hosting child porn?? -
I noticed recently in right-wing forums and media outlets there is an ongoing debate about Trump's Twitter account being permanently suspended. There seems to be a complete misunderstanding about what constitutes protected speech and the laws that we have lived under on the internet for almost the past 3 decades. Regardless of Twitter being owned by a private corporation which in turn gives such an entity the prerogative to suspend and ban users without any repercussions for discriminately doing so. Also regardless of the fact that even free speech has it's limitations, as the classic example where one can't get away claiming yelling "Fire!" in a crowded theater as protected speech when there is no actual fire. The recent debate seems to focus on Section 230 of Title 47 of the United States Code. Vigorous Trump supporters have been claiming that because Twitter permanently suspended Trump's account that Twitter no longer should be protected by Section 230 protections. To my understanding, even if this was the case it would most likely put a burden on twitter to police it's user activity even more on their platform if everything that is posted could make them be held liable (leading to Trump's account being permanently suspended anyways). Sometimes I don't even understand how illogical these people can be when it comes to trying to defend Trump for any of his actions. Trump has recently floated around the idea of creating his own social media platform since every other known platform with high user traffic seems to intervene or outright remove the misinformation and dangerous rhetoric that Trump has posted within his presidency. There basically is no longer a GOP. The republican party and those who blindly follow Trump are willing to give up anything and everything to follow him as their dictator. Even if over half the republicans who support Trump will indiscriminately listen to anything and believe everything Trump says, there is no more hope in trying to save the republican party. Just like Trump being in his 70's, the GOP has gotten to the old age where it's likely not going to change now either, even if Trump will no longer be President soon. I see that idea pretty much in line with Dem thinking though. They want gun manufacturers to be held accountable for what folks do with their product, regardless of how the perpetrator of some action came about being in possession of said product. By that reasoning, I should be able to sue the auto manufacturer for a drunk drivers actions, or a car-jackers actions for that matter. It's downright idiotic. Of course, as it's coming out of the beltway, I am just not surprised. Seems that folks there live in some alternate reality, that has little or no resemblance at all to what the rest of us live. I think that has become far more prevalent that last decade or so..... Personally, I think holding a platform accountable for what their users post on it is stupid. Like the law that was passed not so very long ago that made online singles sites responsible for what their users put up.... (to wit: marketing under-age girls for sex....) Expecting some platform or other to be able to 'police' their MILLIONS of users, is just a bit unrealistic. Craigslist responded by simply nuking their personals section altogether.....

Trump was quiet because he was banned from Twitter. :D (and likely other places as well.) I think expecting him to EVER 'see the error of his ways' is extremely unlikely. He is in his 70's, and this is how he has been all his life. (I blame his parents. :) ) He isn't Ebenezer Scrooge, he isn't going to be visited by any ghosts, and he most certainly isn't going to change how he is. I think you were being overly optimistic. :D

Oh. Gee. Trump is staying consistent in his behavior. And you are surprised when?? And: Don't hold your breath on that. This one promises to keep us entertained for some time yet.....

...I also don't see the dems, or votes for them, 'saving' democracy. I find it much more likely that the results will be an acceleration of the degradation of our society, and further division in this nation. The events at the captiol a few days ago are indicative of a much deeper divide that is apparent on the surface. I don't see that changing, I only see it getting worse, and even more evident. The dems are essentially going to have a free hand in determining policy for at least the next two years. Only time will tell if that is good/bad/indifferent.... the problem is that you can vote only for dems or reps. but this time it was dems (incl. some reps and non voters) vs trump. i think this is not so difficult to to understand and colourwheels is right with the highest turn out. and if you followed what happened on 6th of jan and all of trumps democracy and election hostile anouncements before the election i'm sure that many people realized at this point that trump fights for his ego and not for any political agenda. in fact i'm sure these elections saved democracy at least for the next four years. apart from possible interference of racists or terrorists there is no doubt about that. trump is clearly responsible for the storm of the capitol but he did also a thoroughly and unique job in preventing to give any support to his successor or to ease the takeover. i'm happy about this awareness of the american majority right in time. it sounds like arnie read my mind... so true! please watch this before you continue this debate! thank you! he says what has to be said by all true american patriots and reps. and this is the spirit which must be an inseparable part of any true presidential candidate! because this is a gaming site some weird stuff from facists claiming antifa members were part of the capitol rioters. facists presented this dishonored game symbol as antifa related. just another qanon or whatever facist fairy tail... dishonored 2 is a beautiful game and it is pure bulls**t to put it in relation to antifa. i'm sure this rioter below received no suprenatural skills like emily There was a Libertarian on the ballot where I vote running for president. I had three choices. https://ballotpedia.org/Libertarian_Party_presidential_nomination,_2020 And did he get ANY electoral college votes? My guess would be "No".... Which is the problem with voting for some third party candidate. They simply don't stand a chance, so, you are essentially throwing away your vote.

This political philosophy is a good philosophy that would work on a small Island or an extremely small country with a small enough population where everyone who lives there shares the same cultural values. The problem with Anarcho-capitalism is it could not possibly work in any large nation or anywhere that is extremely populated. With more people there is always more problems, conflicting beliefs, values, etc... The more people in a nation the more complex things are and simply trying to have a system where everything is privatized only one can imagine all the things that could go wrong when just looking at how things are in every large nation around the world now. This is just my own opinion about it, although I will admit I am no where close to being some scholar on this political philosophy. I gotta agree with this sentiment. For small communities, that weren't real technologically advanced (very little required infrastructure), it might work, but, get beyond a certain population point, and/or a certain level of technology, and it all goes out the window. Too much 'stuff' that needs to be paid for, and maintained, that not every individual is going to have a vested interest in. Schools for those with no children.... Health care facilities for those that are healthy, etc.
