Hey [email protected]. I'm getting a specific error in the console and I'm not sure what could have caused it.

It seems to be related to the music player, but I haven't added any mods that alter the in-game music (to my knowledge). This is the error that is generating repeatedly:

Root level exception in Update(): System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.
  at (wrapper dynamic-method) RimWorld.MusicManagerPlay.RimWorld.MusicManagerPlay.MusicUpdate_Patch0(RimWorld.MusicManagerPlay)
  at (wrapper dynamic-method) Verse.Root_Play.Verse.Root_Play.Update_Patch1(Verse.Root_Play)
UnityEngine.StackTraceUtility:ExtractStackTrace ()
(wrapper dynamic-method) Verse.Log:Verse.Log.Error_Patch3 (string)
(wrapper dynamic-method) Verse.Root_Play:Verse.Root_Play.Update_Patch1 (Verse.Root_Play)

Hugslib file is located here.

I have troubleshot some mod conflicts before but this one has me stumped. I've tried looking through the XML extensions patches but I don't see anything related to this in there.

Regardless of the perceived merit of your post I think we would all just appreciate a little more participation here.

Yeah that's definitely how I am. I can tell what's coming and so I maybe just lose the "need" to complete the game.

I did that with Morrowind finally last year and just had an amazing time playing through it all the way.

Yeah same here. I have found myself playing almost entirely sandbox games these last few years. Where there isn't really and end goal (or at least one I'm not required to complete) and I just get to build something or manage resources, etc.

Yes, same here. I have the last mission (I think, "Meet Hannako at Embers") in Cyberpunk still to do and I pick it up and do a handful of side quests every few months. Maybe I'll finish it, eventually.

I can count on one hand the number of games I've finished in the last 4-5 years. Off the top of my head

  • The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
  • Spider-Man (PS4)
  • Red Dead Redemption II
  • L.A. Noire
  • Middle Earth: Shadow of War

Games I stopped playing:

  • Horizon: Zero Dawn (PC)
  • Cyberpunk 2077
  • Disco Elysium (I know. right.)
  • DEATHLOOP
  • Spider-Man: Remastered (PC)
  • Assassin's Creed: Odyssey
  • Divinity: Original Sin II
  • Dying Light 2
  • Half Life - Alyx
  • Boneworks
  • The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
  • Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords (I think I did complete this game once when I was 14 or so)
  • Kingdom Come: Deliverance
  • Fallout 4 (I did complete the story to this a long time ago but I wanted to give it another go a couple years back)

RDR2 is actually one of the few games I have finished in the last few years.

 

I'm not sure why exactly, but I just struggle to finish basically any game where there is a heavy focus on story.

I seem to get about 90% of the way through them and then just stop playing abruptly. I think sometimes I do that because I just play too much in too short of a time, so I burn myself out on it unintentionally because I'm just enjoying the story so much up to that point. Other times I seem to be able to tell where the story is going and I don't like it, usually because it's tragic and I don't want to experience the tragedy I know is coming; It's like this sense of dread overcomes me and I struggle to continue. Other times still, I seem to just know the end is coming and I don't want it to end so I put it off and then forget that I was almost done with it.

Does anyone else do this? I feel bad for having not finished a ton of different games, even the ones I was really enjoying at one time.

These look great!!

Oh man, how could I have forgotten to mention archive.org??

My favorite thing on there is the Old Time Radio Researcher's Group who maintain a huge archive of radio shows produced between 1920 and the 1960s (and some from later years as well such as CBS Radio Mystery Theater).

I've been listening through the most well-known shows for about the last 10 years and I still haven't even listened to them all and there are dozens of other more obscure shows!

Same here! I have a monthly donation going, and the $2 is well worth the hundreds of hours I've spent on it.

 

I feel like not enough people appreciate the simple fact that Wikipedia is essentially the most well-organized and complete collection of human knowledge in existence, and furthermore, it's available to everyone who has access to the internet for free in dozens of languages.

There are tens of thousands of individuals collaborating every hour of every day to collect knowledge and share it with the rest of the world purely out of the desire to document and teach, and millions of people spending hours in the Wikipedia rabbit hole learning about subjects that they would have had no opportunity to without it.

Wikipedia is amazing. It's the modern Library of Alexandria.

Understandable, I appreciate your input all the same.

Hello /c/adulting

Location: Overland Park, KS, United States

My wife was fired recently without warning. She has filed for unemployment and had an initial interview with the unemployment office today. They claim that her former employer told them that she was "not doing her job" but I have never heard anything from her regarding performance issues. They also claimed that they "talked to her about her performance" and she claims that they never made any attempt to correct her performance and was unaware that they were unhappy with her.

What does this mean for her eligibility for unemployment? Is there any recourse?
