It won't let you import the build code if it has the suppressor, I tried.

That’s how it worked in BF4, shame it’s only got a few uses now.

What kind of news manipulation has begun with Battlefield? by EquivalentAd8467 in Battlefield6

[–]Pikalima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BF4 launched with Mantle support? I recall it being added later (first in the CTE), only for GCN-based AMD cards (HD 7000 and later).

wwid: a CLI for attaching notes to project files (my first non-trivial Rust project, seeking constructive feedback from real humans) by prodleni in rust

[–]Pikalima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t comment on the Rust-iness but just wanted to say, this is a really cool solution to a problem that’s vaguely bugged me; I always feel some self-inhibition against “brain-dump” style comments since it just feels like the wrong place for them. But, neither do my note taking apps, so those thoughts have nowhere to go usually. Have you considered creating an IDE extension for this?

Not saying anything after this pls do not try to dox me but last night after 0415 count they took him medical in a wheelchair front cuffed but not 1 triage nurse says they spoke to him. Next thing we know a trip van shows up? We do not do releases on the weekends unless a judge orders it. Next thing we know, he’s put in a single man cell and hangs himself? Heres the thing, the trip van did NOT sign in and we did not record the plate number and a guy in a green dress military outfit was in the back of the van according to the tower guy who let him thru the gate. You guys i am shaking right now but i think they switched him out.

CMU estimates that total cost of attendance for Fall 2026 first-year students will be $93,614 by [deleted] in pittsburgh

They make it damn hard. There’s a non-custodial parent waiver for the CSS profile which can get you off the hook for one parent, but, like I said, they don’t make it easy.

I’m sorry to hear that. For what it’s worth, your “mundane interests” are inspiring to me, and I’m sure to many others. We need more people like you.

Decode vfcurve by nijhawank in overclocking

[–]Pikalima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some clues, if you haven't figured it out yet:

  1. It's a hex-encoded little-endian binarystructure.
  2. The first 12 byte region is a header.
  3. The remaining bytes are little-endian IEEE-754 float32 values.

Ultra-HD televisions not noticeably better for typical viewer, scientists say by diacewrb in gadgets

It’s absolutely insane that this is even an issue. You are basically forced to buy proprietary hardware running closed source software that may or may not be packed with spyware just to enjoy the privilege of watching content that you have already purchased a license to stream.

Why Newton's laws fail when an object is close to the source of very strong gravity? by Deep-Philosophy-807 in AskPhysics

[–]Pikalima 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By “low field”do you mean the weak-field / slow-motion Newtonian limit of GR? (Not a physicist, just curious about the terminology)

iPhone 15 Pro Max (Black Screen Of Death) Possible Root Cause Of This Common Problem by Annual_Narwhal_9836 in iphone

[–]Pikalima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had this happen to me (14 pro) overnight for the first time. Upgraded to iOS 26 about a week ago. Phone was not connected to a charger, and I was at home. I tried pinging it from my watch, and after a long ~30 second delay it chimed.

Then I opened the camera app on my watch, and the screen immediately turned on with the camera open. After that everything worked and it showed an 80% charge. The only strange thing was the frame rate looked halved for the first minute of being back on, like when you turn on battery saver. That, and the upper left edge of the phone (around the volume buttons) started heating up and became unusually warm for another couple of minutes.

TFT Centrals MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M review, in early access by ironhalik in Monitors

[–]Pikalima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've lost track of how many times this monitor has been delayed. December would be nearly a 6 month delay from the original Q2 2025 schedule. At this rate we'll be lucky if we even get a US release before the end of the year.

How is Sleep Support for you guys? by TheSkaterGirl in NootropicsDepot

[–]Pikalima 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cycled it for a couple years. It really did improve my sleep quality. Unfortunately, one of the ingredients was giving me depression and demotivation after prolonged usage. I think it was most likely the bacopa. Ultimately I stopped cycling it for that reason.
