Hell yeah

Can gun parts be sold ?
twin bear
garbage loves to have emissions happen for me idk why lmao
toxic hawk
Is a hunting kit worth buying ?
neon bramble
field strip the part and use a cleaning kit to bring it up from 60 to 100%
twin bear

neon bramble
Is a hunting kit worth buying ?
if you like hunting, yes
twin bear
Is a hunting kit worth buying ?

toxic hawk
fast traveling within the map to dodge the stamina lmao
Why else
Tanking 5 mosin shots to the chest, dying to a single headshot
neon bramble
such a relief from when it isn't standard in the modpacks
I got the misery mosin mixed up with the gamma one
cause they share the same ammo with the SVD in gamma
in misery I could only use the surplus ww2 ammo for the mosin

repurposed old gaming pc to media server and getting it ready to pull double duty with handling gaming for my brother to use while I work on his gaming laptop
viral echo
well i use it as a server
vital marten
ah
carmine monolith
isnt gaming on a media storage pc a really bad idea
oak gazelle
lots of versatility but yeah that gpu could use an upgrade but it still handles 4k transcoding easily enough
carmine monolith
since read/write cycles are what degrade storage
viral echo
i use my server for light gaming as well
twin bear
The computer is your property think not of how it benefits from such asinine rests
oak gazelle
going to have 32 gb of ram in it very soon so that vram will remain the bottleneck, no biggie though it does what I need it to do
viral echo
5700G can just about play PZ at 4k
twin bear
i run games on the lowest specs ever
viral echo
and it uses about 40watts to do it, so not so bad
twin bear
regret nothing if it explodes in my face again
carmine monolith
i can barely tell the difference between stable 45 fps and 200 fps, so it doesnt matter to me
oak gazelle
isnt gaming on a media storage pc a really bad idea
not really, just running games off my primary nvme or older games that would run fine on hdd space
carmine monolith
I see
twin bear
the more fps u have the more accurate and better timed you have to be
so there are indeed downsides
oak gazelle
but for all intents and purposes the media and os/program/games drives are separate
carmine monolith
not really, if its a singleplayer game, your inputs are saved as the ingame coordinate system, you just see it slower
viral echo
i also record CCTV camera to my server
carmine monolith
yeah
oak gazelle
if you're running all your storage needs off older hard drives you're going to have performance issues though
twin bear
only matters on a server thats got a static tick rate
fuckass mp networking is dooty to learn
viral echo
lucky i get given random SSDs from my brother so I put an SSD in my server as well
oak gazelle
nice when tech upgrades get handed down
oak gazelle

last laptop he got though was a Mac, so rip getting hardware from that
His company said nope not using Windows anymore, it's a security risk
RIP Microsoft
oak gazelle
for sure, and they're right
twin bear
my laptop is almost older than my nephew
oak gazelle
as they pivot to their operating systems as a service or OSaaS model based on their experiment feature set nobody uses... it's only going to get worse
twin bear
an amazing machine it has served me for many years

I have my older laptops but I sold a few of them to recoup costs here and there. still, I barely have a reason to own a laptop but it's nice that it's there
viral echo
i have 3 laptops sitting doing nothing
oak gazelle
meh, it's just as good as any a time to find an alternative OS even if it's just switching back to windows 10 and opting in for long term support and good antivirus

oak gazelle
meh, my server is on windows 10 home, and it's opted in to the extended supports through the end of like this year or whatever but I'm not worried about it
so much of the internet was based off windows 3.1 systems that just never went down so it's not like people haven't always just accepted the risks and done their best to patch security issues another way
oak gazelle
lol it's my placeholder as I reduce headaches and relearn a lot of what I forgot about linux when I first got into it almost 18 years ago

so i respected his attempt to give me another chance
stone meadow
my work was 60% meetings with other engineering departments, 20% meetings with management, 10% doing my own paperwork and 10% actual physical engineering
stone meadow
now working in a non corporate structure i spend 99% of my time making things work, and i love it
barren raven
How much of a % of the meetings were actually important
barren raven
Of course
stone meadow
it was mostly meetings about meetings
twin bear
they hold meetings so they can have an excuse to pay the head ups who need to be there
some company heads literally do nothing and get paid
its insane
stone meadow
If you want any project done there has to be lots of meetings beforehand about the safety of it, the purpose, the allocation of resources
and I as a tech wasted most of my time in these meetings
i cant imagine how much time actual engineers wasted
their calendars are full of these bs meetings
to discuss a discussion to be had about a project thats 2 months out of being realised
This is when i worked for UK atomic energy

glass wigeon
even roguelike is different than traditional roguelike
lilac quarry
binding of isaac is still greatest of all time for sure but there are fantastic ones out there
lilac quarry
yeah I cannot play rogue likes lol
twin bear
roguelike is an entirely generated world with one life then it completely changes
lilac quarry
really wanted to like caves of qud but christ my brain is not wired for that
twin bear
or that is how rogue worked
stone meadow
I mean roguelike/roguelite definition is heavily debated
lilac quarry
I think roguelite is what is considered to be the replay value bullet hell genre
twin bear
stuff like binding
glass wigeon
roguelite is you can advance in other areas outside after losing a run
like upgrading stuff
liek the mirror in hades
stone meadow
I mean imo zomboid is a roguelite if you play in the same save, and roguelike if you dont
glass wigeon
roguelike is just none of that
twin bear
rogue will have u be end game then kill u and make u restart the entire thing
lilac quarry
nah pz is not a roguelite
glass wigeon
each run is its own no further things outside
twin bear
with zero same paths
stone meadow
In your opinion
stone meadow
These genres arent hard defined thats why there are so many arguments about it
glass wigeon
I mean imo zomboid is a roguelite if you play in the same save, and roguelike if...
i mean if you find your old base and stuff yeah i guess
lilac quarry
basically roguelite is "is it like binding of isaac or this game that's similar to binding of isaac but different in some ways"
roguelike is like "oh yeah that games requires a brain and you can't just dopamine max while playing it"
twin bear
roguelike generates a world based on that players save, and then you are limited to one life and it regenerates the world and lore
basically a different game after every death
stone meadow
yeah thats your own definition
glass wigeon
yeah
twin bear
some options even let u have classes and races change every run
glass wigeon
roguelites have a progression type thing overall
lilac quarry
but I'm always right so it's true

the enclave have been steadily declining in relevance for ages but they want to return to their factions roots which are unfortunately fascism, they are everything to take from and repurpose in the post apocalypse wasteland
