The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - Spaceworld '97 BETA Experience. Pretty cool seeing some of the changes that could have been in the final release.

Cock-a-doodle-doo! That rooster's so loud it's hard to pay attention to this gigantic...

I agree, it's great!

 

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening for the GameBoy. Played this game so much as a kid but never fully beat it, so it was a very triumphant feeling to date the nostalgic child in me.

I mean you could just disregard their username. It's disregardable.

Both favorites! Grape and cherry are both favorites.

I may not have clearly stated what I meant. I wasn't trying to offer an opinion on your experience. My initial point was imply it is absolutely valid medical knowledge that nerve endings exist in the cervix. Whether or not a doctor acknowledges that or listens to their patients is entirely independent of that (unfortunately). I understand that as a separate issue, but at least modern medical science recognizes it.

Yeah, I'm sure that is frustrating.

That is a valid stance to take based on your history. I've acknowledged your personal experiences may differ. I was not trying to "cancel out" your viewpoint, the same way I don't think it would be fair to discount mine.

Sure I understand that, especially for your personal experiences. I also recognize this has historically been a huge issue. I work closely with doctors and nurse practitioners in women's health (L&D, urogynecology, etc.) and they all take it very seriously (they are of mixed genders). I think it depends on the area and expertise of the doctor, but this is an outdated mindset that is (in my experience) quickly becoming obsolete as more voices are raised and research is published. I'm just against the sweeping generalization of "doctors believe" or "doctors think" and am quick to call it out for clarification. It has been used to support people avoiding healthcare practioners or trusting modern medical science. Saying "my doctor was shitty because they don't listen to my concerns" is super valid and should be acknowledged, but "doctors don't listen to women" is not a fair representation.

I'm not sure what you mean by this; the cervix is known to have many nerve endings and is accepted medical knowledge.

What the fuck dude, I was having a good day.

Maybe he was hoping there would be a game of Squirt over that river?

Hey gang, I'm having trouble running this game. I have a Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RTX 4070 Ti Super, 64GB DDR5 RAM, on a B650 motherboard. My issue is frequent crashing/freezing, meaning I can't play longer than a few minutes at a time. I have tried re-installing the game, Steam, the entire OS, and then fully wiping the drives to remove Windows dual partition and only installing Mint. Then I was pointed to the drivers, so I tried updating using the ppa(?) driver availability as Mint only offered the nVidia 550 through Driver Manager. I tried each of the separate drivers, rebooting between each load, and still having the same issue. For reference, I was able to run through character creator and early intro of the Streetkid after many failed attempts. But then I get to the ride-along with Dexter DeShawn which does not have skippable sections and takes too long. So the length of that conversation is too long before the game either freezes or outright crashes.

Any suggestions are welcome, it's really really annoying me and pretty disheartening after hearing how everything just works on Linux (other than competitive online games, which I don't really play anyway).

Edit to add: I also tried the different Proton versions available through Steam, where I purchased the game.

 

I recently switched over from console gaming to PC gaming. My Gamerscore on Xbox was around 185,000 over more than a decade. Excited to pick up games on PC that I have never played before, and revisit old games that I haven't played in a long time!
