overview for Mechanite

I just finished Morrowind for the first time a few weeks ago, vanilla other than using openmw. It has aged a lot better than I expected it would have. I can definitely see why people say it's their favorite TES, and I'm not talking with any kind of nostalgia.

Steam’s hottest new city builder will have discounts often, so “don’t feel any pressure” to buy it in c/[email protected]

How is this game compared to something like Banished? No city builder has been as fun as banished for me

I can't help looking through the window on the way to work in c/vintage

Thought the switches were chess boards for a moment and was really confused what kind of insane apparatus was built for them

I didn't grow up listening to this but I did grow up listening to daft punk. Todd Edwards also worked on Face to Face which is one of my favorites from DP. Been getting more into house recently and I found this song of his, it is legendary

BSOD Kernel Security Check Fail when installing a U2 drive via an adapter (self.techsupport)

I recently bought a SSDPE2KX080T851 (NVMe U.2) drive to install in my Asus Z690-A i7 12700k PC. I bought a M.2 to U.2 adapter since my motherboard doesn't have native U.2. When I install this into my motherboard Windows throws out BSOD for Kernel Security Check Fail.

However, if I use the device in an M.2 to USB adapter it works fine (That is daisy chained U.2 > M.2. > Usb)

I thought maybe I was running out of PCIe lanes so I took out one of my existing M.2s and put this one in place but it still BSODs. And to be clear, it boots just fine as soon as I remove the new U2 ssd.

Since the adapter works fine when plugged in the USB, I think it is some kind of motherboard compatibility. I am also out of hardware PCIe slots so if I wanted to get a PCIe to U2 I would have to remove one of those. My BIOS is up to date. Unsure if my SSD has an ability to update.

Any ideas?

Edit: should also mention the drive is recognized sort of in the bios, but it shows differently than the other m.2 drives

Edit 2: in case by some miracle you have the same issue as myself, I figured out the drive works just fine on another PC, so I ended up reinstalling windows on my main one and it no longer BSOD
