Any recommendations for DF/Rimworld-like games?

Rise to Ruins and Odd Realm come to mind.

I have this old GTS 450 from a decade ago, and it seems that they've removed some pins from the PCIe 2.0 connector. Take a look:
Spoiler: Front and back (click to show/hide)
The not-pins may look like pins, but a closer look at the traces shows that those not-pins aren't connected to anything. I'd check with a multimeter in continuity mode to confirm, but the battery's run out in mine.

Did the manufacturer deliberately limit the bandwidth (and therefore performance) of this GPU by removing what I assume are data pins? Was bandwidth not a bottleneck back in 2010 when this was made?

Can you use Discord in a web browser?   
I ask because last time I tried I don't believe it worked out very well, but it is possible that I was doing something wrong. The full program runs rather poorly on my laptop, in my experience.

You can: go to their site, and there should a login button on the upper right corner. Works pretty much the same as the app version, but also utilizes browser spellcheck.

Much less active than I used to be on these forums, but I still visit them on occasion. Will probably resume my activity in full once Dwarf Fortress will be released on Steam.

Thanks bud! For some reason I was quite sure it wouldn't be so easy.   
Working well so far, at least.

Yeah, I was also wondering why the options were "download and install a thing, then run it every time you want to log in" and "I don't know, just push this button."

The last one, because it implies the meat you’re eating could be 100% real anything.

There was also the horse meat scandal in the UK like, 10 years ago, which was amusing.

Is it weird that I wouldn't want to live in a communist/anarchist "utopia" with no hierarchy and communal ownership?
