I'll preface this by saying I am 100% not aware of every game in existence, but:

What happened to all the good games with a focus on destruction physics?

Red Faction: Guerrilla was one of my favorite games ever. It had its buggy moments, but overall its destruction physics system was fun and satisfying.

Then Red Faction: Armageddon was so terrible it killed the entire studio (that's probably not exactly what happened but I'm going with it), so now Red Faction is in some weird legal limbo or owned by a company with no plans for it or something like that.

The next choice seems to be Just Cause. The cables in Just Cause are great fun, but the structures all feel like they're made of cardboard and mostly are not destructible. Not very satisfying and not very fun long-term.

The best option I've played for current-or-previous-gen (yeah sorry still a console peasant, working on that) was Battlefield 6, which does destruction very well but it's hardly the main focus of the game like it was for RF:G.

So... what happened to good destruction-physics focused games? Are there any out there that I don't know about?

So, little background: I was a general manager for a dispensary. I found the best perk of that job which, somehow, it seems most managers miss: ordering free samples from literally every single company in existence.

I got over 600 grams of free hash oil in the time I worked there. I sometimes had to stagger the bags I gave my budtenders because I gave them so much wax, it would've been illegal for them to possess it all in a single trip.

It was a lot of good stuff. But it was also a lot of CRC'd garbage. This was years ago, so all the good stuff is gone now, but the CRC'd garbage remains.

I know it's CRC'd. I can smell it. I have full confidence that this is some polished turd wax. Presumably that means it has some clay dust or some shit in it, considering CRC'd shit has a characteristic almost-minty smell.

How bad for me would it be to decarb all this old garbage BHO and then turn it into edibles? I must have like 10 - 15 grams. IN THEORY it should be pesticide free since it was tested under California recreational COA standards (though really that doesnt mean shit, but we can pretend it does if it helps me make potent edibles).

I have a Pixel 8 Pro which AT&T says is unlocked, but the phone refuses to actually unlock. They told me to wait 48 hours but I'm skeptical that will actually do anything.

More info on that issue here, if anyone thinks they can help me.

So now I'm wondering about the unlocking requirement, "Your AT&T device must have been purchased more than 60 days ago." What tracks when your device was purchased? I bought this from eBay so I have no idea when it was purchased. Is there any way for me to check, given I have no access to the account of whoever bought this phone?

Thanks for any help.

I'm painting my camper hearse, and Gizz is part of the vision. This will mostly be highlighted in a space part of the mural, so I'm trying to gather up all the Gizz references to space and planets. So far I have:

• Venusian 1
• Venusian 2
• Gliese 710
• Kepler-22B
• Gaia
• Lonely Cosmos
• Spacesick on my spaceship

Also honorable mention to Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava but that's a little too broad for my purposes here lol

Applications for Aeon City are now being accepted! The city is still expected to open sometime in March, though early-to-mid April remains a possibility.

Before you begin your application, note:

• The application is somewhat long. Many questions are optional, but the more questions you can answer (excluding the Opinion Survey section), the more likely you are to be admitted.
• One question will require you to upload a screenshot of your character. This question is fully optional for general access to the city, but required if you want to obtain one of the just-for-fun ID cards I'll be issuing to Aeon City residents.
• One question asks for your shipping info. This is fully optional and will only be used to send out commemorative physical merch which we may or may not create to celebrate Aeon City's opening.

Not sure what Aeon City is yet? Check out the work-in-progress Wiki page for the city.

And of course, don't forget to join the Galactic Hub Discord, where all social aspects of the city will be based.

Good journeys interlopers, and good luck on your applications!

I've used my Galaxy Note 9 forever now. Its screen is cracked and all the pay-by-month phone services I've used aren't compatible since NET10 finally fully died.

So it's finally time to get a new phone. But I don't like my options - I don't like having no headphone jack, no microSD slot, having unremovable AI bloatware, etc.

I learned about cyberdecks recently. I will be creating a functional Transponder Snail (One Piece) (random example, promise it's not my listing lol) in "true cyberdeck" style no matter what (RaspberryPi / etc), but first, I wanted to start with replacing my phone. I thought I might build a new one.

I've been looking into it for a few days and, from what I can tell, it's impossible to make even a vaguely phone-sized cyberdeck (let's say about as big as a 3DS XL / original PSP or so as a max size) with battery life comparable to an actual phone. Let's say even if we exclude the case to hold the components.

Is this accurate? When I first started looking into it, I felt like cyberdecks based on phones were a bit of a cop-out to be entirely honest, but now I'm seeing the logic... I'm thinking of getting a used Pixel 8 or 9, installing GrapheneOS, then making a handmade wooden case around that. I especially want a physical keyboard. I'd still prefer to build my own with a RaspberryPi but it seems like that's not so viable for what I want to achieve?

Hope this question hasn't been asked millions of times already, I searched the sub and didn't many similar posts but it was a brief search.
