  • This reads like a Rimworld post.

    I don't think there's a Rimworld community on Lemmy and I'm not going on Reddit anymore so I'll just throw this comment into the void and hope some fans are out there. 👋

    Also in Rimworld terms the answer is corn (if monoculture) and send everyone to harvest at the first sign of blight.

    But in both Rimworld and real life, a monoculture strategy isn't sustainable. Diversifying via multiple food sources reduces your risk of disaster leading to starvation.




  • So I work in QA. I know how to troubleshoot things, it’s literally my job.

    Recently my game card for Zelda TOTK kicked the bucket, so I tried contacting Nintendo support.

    Again, I work in QA. So I made sure my Switch software was up to date and reported in the beginning to Support that I had done this and told them the version number.

    First they ask me to check for a software update. 😐 It gets worse from there.

    After copying and pasting several different sets of troubleshooting steps to me (all of which unnecessarily started off with checking for a system update) the Support agent eventually finds out I’m using an SD Card for external memory on my switch.

    So I turn off the Switch, take out the SD Card, reboot the switch, and still the game will not launch. I report this to Nintendo Support. Who then tell me that I need to reformat my SD Card.

    My brother in Christ, if I am still hitting the issue, without the SD Card in use, then reformatting the SD Card will do literally nothing to help.

    Complete waste of my time. I closed the chat and went to Target, who happily let me exchange for another copy of the game that functioned again.
