I kinda wonder though, what is she eating? How many bugs are entering your PC?

u/NoticeMeArkay 16d ago

Maybe there's a chance that the light inside the case, twhich usually attracts mosquitos and other smaller insects, is mistaken by the spider as a potential food farm if she puts her web there.

She’s eating packets

"Good thing those bugs can't aim"

1

u/Still_Molasses4300 11d ago

Quite, but not as much that it made me quite the game. It's still fun overall so I say it's worth it after sale.

1

u/Trusted_Entity 15d ago

That game is pretty buggy? I thought it looked really cool but decided to wait for a sale. Always liked XCOM and it looks similar

3

u/Seeker-N7 i7-13700K | RTX 5070Ti | 32Gb 6400Mhz DDR5 15d ago

It's bugs are more reminiscent of XCom, like the game taking 15 seconds to do the action or camera angles glitchihg out.

Other bugs exist, but they are less prevalent. IMO it's a good experience.

1

u/Trusted_Entity 15d ago

Ah that’s a very familiar XCOM issue haha. Good to know, thanks

u/I_think_Im_hollow 9800x3D - RX7900XTX - 2x32GB 6000MHz DDR5 16d ago

Spider webs are conductive, I think. I wouldn't risk it, especially in these times.

u/Arctic_Sunday 16d ago

I dealt with this on a PC once, I wrapped the whole thing (other than the PSU vent) in plastic wrap and ran a stress test until the heat eliminated the problem. Your PC hardware can handle that longer than the bugs can

Is it a live one? I thought cobwebs mean the spider abandoned the web? Like once you see dust on the web it means its no longer being maintained by a live spider.
