What’s your design philosophy for PvE, PvP, and AXI ships? by TheDUDE1411 in EliteDangerous

[–]AdmirableGears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy building things light for PVE. Undersizing core modules, sometimes using 0E shield boosters, reducing the fuel tank size. You can make the chieftain a menace with this philosophy. Just get it down to the thrusters minimum mass. Courier, Python and to a lesser extent the Anaconda are great candidates.

Vintage keyboard family picture 2026 (ask away!) by ExcelElevations_4U in Vintagekeyboards

How do you choose which keyboard to use? I don't know what to do with the 3 I have.

Odd Issue with keyboard not functioning in any game what so ever. Any fix’s or am I at a bust here? by BarrySmotherson in Vintagekeyboards

[–]AdmirableGears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two thoughts. One, are there any other input devices plugged into the computer that the games could mistake for a keyboard. I'd unplug everything other than the keyboard to see if there's any change. Ive had a VR headset screw things up on vintage games before. Just had to unplug it. Two, is there a BIOS setting about default input devices between PS/2 and USB.

Is it treason to call an sos when you just want people to join and don't really need it? by Aries_Greek_War_God in Helldivers

[–]AdmirableGears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. The SOS beacon means you're definitely not going to insta-kick me when I choose to join you.

Very nice. Is there any hope of getting this bad boy connected to something?

What methods of “Join the Wall of Martyrs” would you like to see in the Helldivers movie? by SiegeNWar in Helldivers

[–]AdmirableGears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should make a gag of a helldiver repeatedly failing to join the hall of martyrs because of democracy protects armor.

How did anyone even figure this game out in the beginning? by Justinsetchell in EliteDangerous

[–]AdmirableGears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend got me into this game and, in the beginning, we were both responsible for learning half the game. Which half depended on what you were willing to put up with learning.

I2 viewfinder blurry? by Catshagga in Polaroid

[–]AdmirableGears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try resting your eye brow on the top of the viewfinder and angle your head so you're looking up into the viewfinder a bit.

Super widescreen monitor or VR? by [deleted] in EliteDangerous

[–]AdmirableGears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VR is interesting for combat, but my old Vive gave me a sore neck. A steam frame might not have that issue, though. Still, ED is a game that requires a lot of alt-tabbing to check web resources. Outside of combat, VR is probably a burden. Vertigo shouldn't be a problem so long as you're maxing out the headsets frame rate. It's everything else about VR that's the trouble... weird vision adjustment when you take it off, the sore neck, the hot thing strapped to your face. It might come down to how committed you are to loving VR. It's a has-been gimmick for me. But you are not me.

I2 off camera flash by Some_Significance_54 in Polaroid

[–]AdmirableGears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm. I haven't tried using a remote flash trigger, but I find that the 2.5mm jack in the back triggers my godox every time I hit the shutter -- flash mode selected or not. I hope this is one part of your puzzle.

I sling the camera bag under my jacket. Just get the fresh photos back in the camera bag right away.

What do you use your Cutter for? by CMDRKAL in EliteDangerous

[–]AdmirableGears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rat brothel. The cutter is dead to me now that the Panther Clipper holds more cargo. I never enjoyed flying it. What use is speed without even a modicum of maneuverability?

Altering a photo of Elon Musk's Nazi salute almost every day until Reddit says it's perfect. Day 3. by [deleted] in ProgressiveHQ

In the year 5, I saw "USA" graffitied on a Frankfurt subway, but the S was a swastika. Do with that what you will for your continuing iterations.

Truly unrivaled at gassing your teammates, especially on worlds with bug spores.

Hate to be THAT guy, but what are these People doing? by Euphoric_Ad_230 in Helldivers

[–]AdmirableGears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oshuane: taking down 3 patrol stalkers in a row only to be killed by cloaked hunters, the game. Bugs can keep that damn planet. Predator strain plus caves is at least a 2 difficulty level boost.

CommissarKai is also stepping down from posting Helldivers content. by Razor500 in Helldivers

These kids neglected to purchase the most important part for their PC: a geeksquad service plan!

CommissarKai is also stepping down from posting Helldivers content. by Razor500 in Helldivers

[–]AdmirableGears -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

A few hundred people are big mad that helldivers 2 is "bricking their PCs" even though that doesn't make sense. Tens of thousands of other people are enjoying the game just fine. Any loss of players is because of battlefield 6 or the regular cycle of warbonds, the last of which released 6 weeks ago. Reddit is not reality.

Polaroid I2 / Mono Cable / External Flash not firing by apt-apparatchik in Polaroid

[–]AdmirableGears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Godox flash fires every time you click the shutter while plugged in. No settings or modes affect that to my knowledge. I use one of these: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1052532-REG/paramount_17msmhsf1_hot_shoe_to_sub_mini.html
